Device for cutting processed material, in particular for dicing food, and food processor

摘要

The invention relates to a device (1) for cutting processed material, in particular for dicing foodstuffs, having a cutting tool (6) rotating about a rotation axis along a cutting gate (7) which is supported radially outwardly in the axial direction by means of at least one support device (21) is. According to the invention, it is provided that the cutting tool (6) has at least one cutting blade (20) and a blade carrier which completely revolves in the region of its outer periphery and rests against the at least one radially outwardly acting support device (21). The support device (21) preferably consists of hook-shaped locking elements (22), which are pivotally mounted on a housing part (5) and abut in the locking position on the upper axial surface (26) of a ring element (19) of the knife carrier. As a result of this design, the supporting devices (21) and the device (1) can be kept structurally quite simple overall, so that the device (1) is not only reserved for professional use. Furthermore, the noise level when operating the device can be lowered. In addition, it can be achieved that the device can be cleaned easily and, with a suitable choice of material, also in the dishwasher.
