ABSTRACT:
A food processor having a shredder attachment for shredding or slicing food product against a rotating slicer plate includes a pusher plate releasably connected to a feed chute by a removable handle which prevents disassembly of the pusher plate for cleaning unless the feed chute is in a non-operating position. A splitter in the form of a knife-edge projection is positioned in the feed chute to direct food product to the periphery of the slicer plate while slicing food product pushed thereagainst. A slicer plate holder achieves improved discharge of shredded food product from a housing containing the slicer plate by providing a number of spaced wiper blades which scrape or wipe the interior surfaces of the housing, and an outer ring which also directs food product out of the housing. The slicer plate holder also includes a hub for covering a bearing, which bearing drivingly connects the hub to the food processor power unit, so as to prevent food product from contacting the bearing.
