Abstract
A manually-operated, foodstuff slicer includes a top plate and bottom plate coupled together and housing a cutting blade within a recess formed between the plates. The top plate and bottom plate include spaced, circular holes defined therethrough and axially aligned, respectively, and the planar cutting blade having a handle and a plurality of circular holes which correspond in size and shape to the holes defined through the top and bottom plates. The blade is slidably retained between the top and bottom plates and movable along a plane similar to the plates.
Claims12
A multi-slicing foodstuff device comprises:
- a top plate mutually coupled with a bottom plate, the top plate and the bottom plate forming a housing and having a recess formed between the top plate and the bottom plate;
- a planar cutting blade, the cutting blade is housed within the recess;
- a guide arm coupled with the planar cutting blade, the guide arm manually controlling reciprocating movement of the cutting blade;
- a plurality of apertures formed in the top plate and the bottom plate, the plurality of apertures in the top plate are mutually aligned in an axial orientation relative to the plurality of apertures in the bottom plate, wherein the cutting blade comprises a plurality of apertures formed therein, the plurality of apertures being equal in number and diameter with the plurality of apertures in the top plate and in the bottom plate, wherein the plurality of apertures of the cutting blade is mutually alignable in axial orientation with the plurality of apertures in the top plate and in the bottom plate;
- and
- a handle formed at a proximal end of the multi-slicing foodstuff device.
A multi-slicing foodstuff assembly comprising:
- a multi-slicing foodstuff device, the multi-slicing foodstuff device comprising:
- a top plate mutually coupled with a bottom plate, the top plate and the bottom plate forming a housing and having a recess formed between the top plate and the bottom plate;
- a planar cutting blade, the cutting blade is housed within the recess;
- a guide arm coupled with the planar cutting blade, the guide arm manually controlling reciprocating movement of the cutting blade;
- a plurality of apertures formed in the top plate and the bottom plate, the plurality of apertures in the top plate are mutually aligned in an axial orientation relative to the plurality of apertures in the bottom plate, wherein the cutting blade comprises a plurality of apertures formed therein, the plurality of apertures being equal in number and diameter with the plurality of apertures in the top plate and in the bottom plate, wherein the plurality of apertures of the cutting blade is mutually alignable in axial orientation with the plurality of apertures in the top plate and in the bottom plate;
- a handle formed at a proximal end of the multi-slicing foodstuff device;
- and
- a stabilizer assembly comprises a stabilizer for supporting the multi-slicing foodstuff device in an elevated, fixed orientation.
