A food cutter induces an operating frame, a push-pull mechanism and an elastic connecting piece. A mounting cavity and a feeding hole are formed in the operating frame; and the push-pull mechanism is mounted in the mounting cavity and connected with the operating frame in a sliding manner. The push-pull mechanism includes a push-pull rack, a stationary knife and a movable knife; the stationary knife is fixedly mounted on the push-pull rack; the movable knife is detachably mounted on the push-pull rack and positioned below the stationary knife; and a discharging hole is formed in the push-pull rack and communicated with the feeding hole and the mounting cavity. One end of the elastic connecting piece is fixedly connected with the operating frame, and the other end is fixedly connected with the push-pull rack.

A pusher for use with a mandoline slicer includes a cap having an upper and a lower end, the cap defining an interior space. A lower plate is attached to a pillar, which is attached to a telescoping post. The pillar and telescoping post are telescopically moveable with respect to one another along the central axis and trained for movement by a guide within the cap. Stops are provided along the guide to restrict the length of travel of the telescoping post and pillar. A spring is connected to the cap and the lower plate to urge the lower plate away from the cap in a direction from the upper end toward the lower end.

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.

A fruit peeler includes a base and a planing blade. The base includes a first rotating member and a second rotating member rotatable relative to the first rotating member. The first rotating member has a fixed arm that has a first position perpendicular to the first rotating member. One end of the fixed arm is connected to the first rotating member, and another end of the fixed arm has an insertion pin extending toward an inner side direction of the fixed arm and rotatable relative to the fixed arm. The planing blade is mounted on a planer frame that is arranged at the fixed arm, and is connected to the second rotating member. The planer frame has a third position perpendicular to the second rotating member. The planing blade can perform a reciprocating curve movement in an axial direction of the insertion pin when the second rotating member rotates.

The invention relates to a foodstuff comminution system having a foodstuff comminution device having a main part which has a receptacle for a cutter part, and having an activation part which is connected in an articulated manner to the main part and which, for squeezing foodstuff material to be comminuted through a cutter part inserted in the receptacle, is pivotable from a placing position towards the cutter part to a closing position and subsequently from the closing position back to the placing position. The foodstuff comminution system is distinguished by an additional comminution tool which is capable of being secured in an operating position on the foodstuff comminution device, wherein the additional comminution tool in the operating position, conjointly with at least one component of the foodstuff comminution device, forms a mandolin slicer or a grater and the foodstuff comminution device provides a sliding track, or at least one part of the sliding track, of the mandolin slicer or of the grater, foodstuff material which is to be comminuted by means of the mandolin slicer or the grater being capable of being guided back and forth on said sliding track.

The invention relates to a foodstuff comminution system having a foodstuff comminution device having a main part which has a receptacle for a cutter part, and having an activation part which is connected in an articulated manner to the main part and which for squeezing foodstuff material to be comminuted through a cutter part inserted in the receptacle is pivotable from a placing position towards the cutter part to a closing position and subsequently from the closing position back to the placing position. The foodstuff comminution system is distinguished by an additional comminution tool which is capable of being secured in an operating position on the foodstuff comminution device and which has a fastening portion as well as a tool portion, wherein the fastening portion in the operating position is jammed in a form-fitting manner between the main part and the activation part and wherein the tool portion in the operating position is disposed outside the receptacle.

The invention relates to a foodstuff comminution system having a foodstuff comminution device which is configured as a hand-held apparatus, having a main part which has a receptacle for a cutter part, and having an activation part which is connected in an articulated manner to the main part and which for squeezing foodstuff material to be comminuted through a cutter part inserted in the receptacle is pivotable from a placing position towards the cutter part to a closing position and subsequently from the closing position back to the placing position. The foodstuff comminution system is distinguished by an additional comminution tool which is capable of being secured in a non-destructive releasable manner in an operating position on the foodstuff comminution device and which has a fastening portion as well as a tool portion, wherein the tool portion in the operating position is disposed outside the receptacle and outside the pivoting range of the activation part.
