Abstract
A processing device for processing fruit and/or vegetables. The processing device may have a lip and at least one blade. The processing device may be mounted on cup or bowl. A user of the processing device will move the fruit and/or vegetable against the lip of the processing device. The skin or rind of the fruit or vegetable will be removed via the motion of the fruit and/or vegetable against the lip of the processing device. When there are blades present the blades can also slice the fruit or vegetable during the same movement that removes the skin from the fruit and/or vegetable.
Claims11
A processing device for fruits or vegetables comprising:
- a lip forming a portion of a circular-shaped perimeter of the processing device;
- an arc-shaped blade support structure extending and bridging from one portion of the circular-shaped perimeter to another portion of the circular-shaped perimeter;
- and
- at least three blades, wherein at least two of the three blades are differently sized, wherein each of the at least three blades extends from the arc-shaped blade support structure to the lip forming the portion of the circular-shaped perimeter of the processing device;
- and
- a crescent-shaped opening formed by the arc-shaped blade support structure and the circular-shaped perimeter of the processing device when viewed from a top-down view of the processing device, wherein the crescent-shaped opening has no blades located therein, wherein the crescent-shaped opening comprises at least a third of the processing device, and
- a base portion secured to the circular-shaped perimeter, wherein the circular-shaped perimeter is adapted to fit on a rim of a cup when the base portion is located within an interior space of the cup.
A processing system for fruits or vegetables comprising:
- a cup;
- a processing device comprising:
- a lip forming a portion of a circular-shaped perimeter of the processing device;
- a base portion secured to the circular-shaped perimeter, wherein the circular-shaped perimeter is secured to the cup when the base portion is located within an interior space of the cup;
- an arc-shaped blade support structure extending and bridging from one portion of the circular-shaped perimeter to another portion of the circular-shaped perimeter;
- at least three blades, wherein at least two of the at least three blades are differently sized, wherein each of the at least three blades extends from the arc-shaped blade support structure to the lip forming the portion of the circular-shaped perimeter of the processing device;
- and
- a crescent-shaped opening formed by the arc-shaped blade support structure and the circular-shaped perimeter of the processing device when viewed from a top-down view of the processing device, wherein the crescent-shaped opening has no blades located therein, and wherein the crescent-shaped opening comprises at least a third of the processing device.
