ABSTRACT:
A machine for cutting potatoes into multiple helical strips wherein the potato is rotated and moved toward a cutter having a series of parallel scoring knives projecting toward the potato and extending along a radial line with respect to the axis of rotation of the potato. A slicing blade likewise extending radially is disposed at right angles to the axis of rotation of the potato for continuously slicing off the scored portions. A carriage has a driving motor mounted thereon and the driving motor has a driven shaft which terminates in a potato-engaging and supporting element having prongs for engaging the potato to support the same and cause rotation thereof with said shaft. The machine has a base member to which the cutter is attached and the base member has longitudinal guide means at opposite sides thereof in which the carriage is guided for free longitudinal movement toward and away from the cutter in a direction parallel to the axis of rotation of the potato.
