ABSTRACT:
A vegetable peeler for peeling large quantities of vegetables. The vegetable peeler has a frame on which a plurality of rollers are rotatably mounted in parallel relation to define a longitudinally extending, upwardly opening trough. A discharge auger is rotatably mounted on the frame and extends longitudinally within the trough from the discharge end thereof for a selected distance less than the entire length of the trough. The sides of the trough extend upwardly on either side of the auger at least as high as the longitudinal axis thereof. The auger is mounted on the frame by mounting means adapted to leave a portion of the trough between the auger and the intake end of the trough substantially unobstructed. As a consequence, the trough may receive an amount of vegetables placed therein for peeling, even if the amount is sufficiently large that the vegetables fill the trough at least as high as the longitudinal axis of the auger, without any interference to the free tumbling and other movement of the vegetables in the unobstructed portion of the trough. Auger rotating means are provided for rotating the auger at a selected speed about its longitudinal axis.
