ABSTRACT:
A vegetable peeler with a handle supporting a cylindrical and electrically rotatable shafted cutter body connected to the handle with a plurality of spaced cutter blades extending longitudinally from the outer to the inner end of the body and a fixed splatter shield partially surrounding and spaced from the body and supported directly on the handle. In this general arrangement there is provided an improved cutter and shield release assembly of a cylindrical tapered support surface on the handle and a matching tapered support surface on the shield for telescopically locking the parts together. A cam and slot connection between the surfaces of different sized pins entering cooperating angled slots cams the tapered surfaces together and locks them. The body has a flared inner end and an abutment is provided on the shield adjacent the flared end so rotation of the shield breaks the tapered connection while simultaneously abutting the body to release the cutter without handling it. The invention is thus directed to an improved cutter and shield release assembly for a vegetable peeler.
