The end of the first mandrel and the end of the first outer shaft are each provided with a first transmission part coupled to a drive device; the blades are respectively arranged in the shaft assembly and perpendicular to the rotating shaft assembly; one blade is coupled to the first mandrel, and the other is coupled with the first outer shaft, so that the blades can be driven by the rotating shaft assembly to rotate in two opposite directions at the same time. The fruit and vegetable cutter includes a fruit and vegetable cavity, the cutter assembly and a driving device for driving the cutter assembly.

A cutting device for cutting an initial product into a plurality of products comprises a base, a cutter seat and a cutter. The initial product includes an insulator and a plurality of groups of terminals fixed on the insulator. The base of the cutting device includes a plurality of slots arranged side by side, and a first positioning slot formed on an inner sidewall of each of the slots of the base and adapted to position one of the terminals of the initial product. The cutter seat is inserted into one of the plurality of slots and defines a blade slit. The cutter is adapted to be inserted into the blade slit to cut off the insulator of the initial product to form the product.

A cutting tool for use with a heated tool assembly is described herein. The cutting tool includes a support body and a plurality of cutting blades extending outwardly from an outer surface of the support body. The plurality of cutting blades includes a primary cutting blade and a pair of secondary cutting blades extending obliquely from the primary cutting blade. At least one heating element chamber is defined within the support body and is configured to receive a heating cartridge therein to facilitate transferring thermal energy from the heating cartridge to the cutting tool for use in heating the plurality of cutting blades.

A food processor is provided that includes necessary blades and plates to carry out multiple functions of the food processor including slicing, shredding, and grating without having to remove and replace blades and plates to carry out those same functions. The motor of the food processor may operate in either the clockwise or counterclockwise direction. In the clockwise direction, the blades and plates within the cutting chamber may be configured to slice food at variable thicknesses, cut food at variable sizes in a julienne style, or grate food at various thicknesses. In the counterclockwise direction, food may be diced.

Existing blade assemblies for cutting complex three-dimensional shapes such as twisted shapes are typically slow and suffer from frequent breakdowns. Disclosed herein is a stationary blade assembly for cutting food products into complex shapes as the food products are directed along a direction of flow at the blade assembly, wherein the blade assembly comprises a plurality of blades, each of the plurality of blades having a length, wherein the length of the blade is oriented along the direction of flow and the blade is twisted along its length, whereby the food products are rotated by the blade during cutting.

A cutting tool for truncating elongated structural members has a frame with a pair of parallel siderails connected at a first end by a support plate and at a second end by a removable end gate, the frame having an open center adapted to receive the structural member therethrough. The truncating is performed by a fixed penetrating cutting edge on an end gate and a driven penetrating blade slidably disposed within the frame to advance towards the end gate. The end gate has two integral penetrating cutting edges pointing in opposite directions. The driven penetrating blade and the fixed penetrating cutting edge may have concave cutting edges relative to one another and configured to be adjacent to one another along the travel of the driven penetrating blade. Alternately, an end gate second cutting edge may be directed to the opening within the frame and have a piercing V-shaped cutting edge.

A solar panel cutting unit includes a frame, a panel transporting mechanism at the frame to lower the solar panel in a vertical direction, first guide roller units below the panel transporting mechanism to guide and lower the solar panel, a first wire cutting mechanism including first support rollers and a first cutting wire connecting the first support rollers to each other and extending in the same direction as the adhesion lines such that the first wire cutting mechanism separates one of the thin layers from the solar panel, and a second wire cutting mechanism below the first wire cutting mechanism and including second support rollers and a second cutting wire connecting the second support rollers to each other and moving in parallel to the first cutting wire such that the second wire cutting mechanism separates another of the thin layers from the solar panel.

The disclosure relates to a device for shredding strip-shaped material comprising a housing with at least one feed opening for the strip-shaped material and a discharge opening for the shredded material, a blade holder which is mounted to be rotatable about an axis within the housing, at least one blade which is attached to the blade holder, at least one counter blade which is attached to the housing, and a drive configured to rotate the blade holder in a first direction of rotation and a second direction of rotation, opposite to the first direction of rotation, about the axis. The disclosure further relates to a method for operating a device for shredding strip-shaped material. Under the method, at least one blade holder mounted to be rotatable in a first direction of rotation, as well as in a second direction of rotation, is employed by the device.

A cartridge adapted to secure reciprocating bread slicer blades including a rectangular frame having a planar surface, the frame having a plurality of pairs of opposed holders, each pair of the opposed holders adapted to releasably secure opposed ends of a corresponding bread slicer blade. The frame is adapted to secure a plurality of aligned bread slicer blades defining a plane offset from the frame planar surface. The frame is adapted to selectively maintain each of the plurality of aligned bread slicer blades in tension.

A food product slicing apparatus is configured to slice food products into slices. A load assembly pivotally is mounted on a frame and a food product is positioned thereon. A drive assembly on the frame receives the food product from the load assembly and moves the food product relative to the frame. The load assembly can be positioned in at a first, lowered position relative to the drive assembly, a second, partially raised position relative to the drive assembly and a third, fully raised position relative to the drive assembly. The drive assembly engages the food product when the load assembly is in the third, fully raised position.
