Kinetic fruit and veggie turbo wash

Abstract

An apparatus for effectively washing a wide variety of smaller fruits and vegetables which can be conveniently used as a household kitchen appliance. The washing apparatus is comprised of a washing chamber or bowl with fluted or channeled interior sides, anti-skid pads on the bottom, a central axis agitator, a lid with incorporated strainer port and a geared manual crank handle. The crank handle has a gear ratio of approximately 6:1 which, under typical or normal rotation, will produce approximately 200 revolutions per minute (RPM's) across the diameter of the agitator. The agitator is designed to create the maximum amount of water uplift and central and circumferential water flow. The agitator design incorporates a semi-rigid plastic material and modified leading edges to reduce and eliminate damage and bruising to food items.
