ABSTRACT:
A cutter construction for a vegetable peeler that has a cylindrically electrically rotatable body with a longitudinal mounting shaft and a plurality of longitudinally extending slots coextensive with and equally spaced around the body and a cutter blade disposed lengthwise from the body outer end to the inner end in each slot. In this general arrangement an improved slot and blade configuration is provided wherein each blade is disposed in its own slot with its entire cutting edge angled or slanted in the direction of rotation and with a high point in an operable permissible range above the body periphery a maximum of 0.030 inches (0.75 mm) and a minimum of 0.008 inches (0.20 mm). A clearance recess is provided below and coextensive with each blade and extending substantially at right angles to the blades in the direction of rotation. It has a peripheral width from substantially 0 inches to 0.180 inches (4.5 mm). Thus, the width of the recess varies inversely with the blade height within the range so that clogging of peelings and cutting of the user's skin is at a minimum. A preferred specific range is defined and the cylindrical peeler may have a flared end shield on the inner end to guide peelings away from the shaft and the recesses and the peeler may have a spaced knob on the outer end for removing the shaft and cutter without contacting the knife surfaces on the cutter.
