The invention relates to a cutting machine knife for food production, having a cutting body and a fastening section for fastening the cutting machine knife to a rotary drive, wherein the cutting body has two side faces which run at least approximately parallel to one another, and at least one knife with a cutting edge on a front edge, in relation to an intended rotation direction during operation, of the cutting body. According to the invention it is provided that the cutting body also has at least one striking edge, which is formed by an end face, which is inclined by an angle of between 60° and 120°, preferably between 70° and 90°, relative to a rotation plane of the cutting machine knife, and extends transversely to the rotation plane of the cutting machine knife in relation to the intended rotation direction between two flat faces which run at an angle between 0° and 35° to the rotation plane, wherein a transition from the end face to the flat face trailing this end face in the rotation direction is sharp-edged.

A blender system includes a container having a rotatable blade assembly therein, a lid covering an open end of the container, and a base with a motorized unit. When the container is coupled with the base, the motorized unit is adapted to drive rotation of the rotatable blade assembly. The lid includes a hinged actuator lever adapted to actuate the motorized unit. A detent extends from the hinged actuator lever and passes through a series of apertures and presses against a slidable actuator shaft disposed in the container and maintained in its position by a spring force, thereby depressing a switch for the motorized unit. A rotatable blade system includes cutting blade(s) and crushing blade(s). The crushing blade extends longitudinally outwardly from a hub. When the hub rotates in a first direction or second direction opposite the first direction, a face of the crushing blade is leading or trailing, respectively.

The present invention relates to an apparatus (1) for pulverizing a material. The apparatus comprises a stationary housing (3) having an interior space and at least one interior wall facing the interior space. At least one sawblade (9) is disposed in the interior space and arranged rotatable with respect to the stationary housing (3). The at least one sawblade (9) has a periphery (12) provided with a plurality of cutting teeth (15) for cutting the material and a plurality of collecting notches (17) for collecting the cut material. The apparatus comprises an inlet opening (19) for feeding material to the interior space, and an outlet opening (21) for dispatching pulverized material from the interior space. The interior wall (7) of the housing is provided with a plurality of recesses (23) facing the periphery (12) of the sawblade (9), arranged to receive the cut material from the collecting notches (17) of the sawblade (9), and to revert the cut material to the periphery (12) of the sawblade (9) so that the material will be cut multiple times before it is dispatched from the apparatus. The interior wall (7) surrounds a main part of the periphery (12) of the at least one sawblade (9), and the inlet opening (19) and the outlet opening (21) are arranged in the interior wall (7) and in direct communication with the interior space (5) so that the material enters and leaves the interior space (5) during one revolution of the at least one sawblade (9).
