    [0002] FOOD PEELER
    [0004] The present invention relates to food processing devices and related methods. More specifically, the present description of the invention refers to devices and methods for peeling an outer layer of a food product, for example, garlic cloves, among others.
    [0006] BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
    [0008] Certain food products require processing before they are cooked. For example, garlic cloves, among others, have a skin that must be removed from a garlic core before using the garlic core in a cooking dish. The removal of said skins can be done manually or using a traditional kitchen utensil, for example a knife, or semi-automatically, by using a food peeling device.
    [0010] Food peeling devices used to peel garlic include cylindrical tubes made of rubber materials. A user can peel a clove of garlic by placing the garlic cloves in the rubber tube, squeezing the tube to compress the garlic, and rolling the tube along a hard surface to loosen and remove the garlic skin.
    [0012] Existing food peeling devices do not lend themselves to high volume processing. More particularly, loading and unloading the garlic cloves from the rubber tubes described above, or removing spent skins from the rubber tube, can be time consuming. In addition, existing food peeling devices generally require the use of both hands, which does not allow other simultaneous activities with the other hand, and which makes such devices difficult to use for people with physical disabilities in the hands or fingers. . Accordingly, a food peeler that is easy to load, unload, use, and clean would be advantageous to a user by facilitating food preparation, for example, by reducing the time required to perform, and/or clean up after, a procedure. food preparation or clean up afterward, and by requiring only one hand to be used.
    [0013] RESUME
    [0015] The present invention provides methods and apparatus for quickly and efficiently removing skins from food products. Embodiments of the invention include a base member suitable for use on a flat surface, and a second movable member that engages the base member. The base member has an upper friction surface which is provided in an elongated space between two parallel upwardly extending side walls, where the space is open at both ends. The movable member includes a projecting section that is designed and sized to fit between the parallel sidewalls of the base member, and includes a bottom friction surface. The movable member may be engaged with the base member in such a way that the friction surfaces on the base member and the movable member oppose each other, and approach or contact each other. In embodiments of the invention, the open ends of the gap allow the movable member to slide back and forth along the gap between the side walls of the base member, moving the friction surfaces relative to each other.
    [0017] In some embodiments, the friction surfaces on the base member and the movable member may be the same or made of the same material, while in other embodiments these surfaces may be different or made of different materials. For example, and not limited to, in some embodiments, different patterns of raised or roughened areas may be provided on one or both of the friction surfaces of the base member and the movable member. In some embodiments, only one of the opposing surfaces (either the base or the moving member) is frictional. In some embodiments, rubber or rubber-like materials may be provided on one or both base and/or movable members to provide opposing frictional surfaces for these members. Suitable materials for friction surfaces include, but are not limited to, rubber, latex, silicone, and the like. In other embodiments, the opposing surfaces on the base member and/or the movable member may be coated with resins or other materials that can be partially or completely hardened to provide rough friction surfaces. For example, the friction surfaces can be rough surfaces.
    [0019] In some embodiments, the base member may be provided with one or more bottom panels or rims extending from the base. These panels or ridges provide stability to the base member while also providing a place where a user can hold the base in place while moving the second movable member back and forth. In some embodiments, a handle, grip, or other similar structure may be provided on the base that can be engaged by a user to stabilize the base while the embodiment is in use. In other embodiments, suction may be provided to temporarily adhere the base to a surface, such as a counter or table. In other embodiments, a gummed band may extend completely around the base member providing an upper friction surface opposing the movable member, and a lower friction surface preventing slippage of the base on a counter or table.
    [0021] In use, the base of one embodiment of the invention is provided on a flat surface, such as a counter or table, with an optional panel extending from the base toward the user. The user can place a hand or elbow on the panel to stabilize the base, or the panel can be attached or clamped to the table top. The user holds the second mobile member in the other hand. Unpeeled food products (eg garlic cloves, pine nuts, pine nuts) can be placed on the friction surface of the base between the parallel side walls of the particular embodiment. For some food products such as pine nuts and the like, the nuts may first be impacted or struck with the palm of the user's hand or some other convenient implement to create a break in the outer skin of the food product before it is placed on the base. After the unpeeled food products are placed on the base, in some embodiments, the second movable member is inserted into the space, pressed against the food products, and moved back and forth. This causes food products to become trapped under pressure between the upper surface of the base and the lower surface of the moving element, where one or both surfaces are frictional. The oscillating movement of the second member in space causes the food products to roll between the friction surfaces of the base member and the moving member, which has the effect of removing the shells, skins or outer layers thereof. Once these outer layers have been removed, the second moving member is removed, exposing the peeled food products and removed shells. Shells can normally be removed from the base by rinsing the base under a stream of water or gently blowing off the shells, leaving the peeled food available for use.
    [0023] The above summary does not include an exhaustive list of all aspects of the present invention. The invention is contemplated to include all devices, systems, and methods that may be practiced from all suitable combinations of the various aspects outlined above, as well as those described in the detailed description below and particularly pointed out in the appended claims. with the request. Such combinations have particular advantages not specifically mentioned in the summary above.
    [0025] Therefore, it is an object of the invention to provide methods and apparatus for quickly and easily removing outer layers from food products.
    [0027] A further object of the invention is to provide methods and apparatus for removing outer layers from food products that are easy and easy to clean and store between uses.
    [0029] A further object of the invention is to provide methods and apparatus for removing outer layers from food products without damaging the food product from which the outer layer has been removed.
    [0030] A further object of the invention is to provide methods and apparatus for removing outer layers from food products that are easy to operate with one hand and for people with physical disabilities.
    [0032] Additional objects of the invention will become apparent from the detailed descriptions and claims herein.

    [0061] DETAILED DESCRIPTION
    [0063] The embodiments describe a food peeler and methods for peeling or removing an outer layer of a food product, eg, peels, skins, the skin of a garlic clove, outer layers of pine nuts or dried fruit, etc. While certain embodiments are described below with specific mention of peeling garlic cloves, it will be appreciated that the food peeler can be used in other applications, such as removing shells from peanuts or pine nuts. Accordingly, the scope of the claims below is not limited solely to a garlic peeler or a method of peeling a garlic.
    [0065] In various embodiments, a description is made with reference to the figures. However, certain embodiments may be practiced without one or more of these specific details, or in combination with other known procedures and configurations. In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth, such as such as specific configurations, dimensions, and procedures, to provide a thorough understanding of the embodiments. In other instances, well-known manufacturing procedures and techniques have not been particularly described so as not to unnecessarily complicate the description. Reference throughout this specification to "an embodiment,""someembodiment," or the like, means that a particular function, structure, configuration, or feature described is included in at least one embodiment. Accordingly, the appearance of the phrases "an embodiment" or "some embodiment" in various places throughout the present specification do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment in all instances. Furthermore, the particular functions, structures, configurations, or features may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments.
    [0067] The use of relative terms throughout the description may denote relative position or direction. For example, "forward" may indicate a first direction along a longitudinal axis of a food peeler. Similarly, "proximal" can indicate a second direction opposite to the first direction. However, such terms are provided to establish relative frames of reference and are not intended to limit the food peeler to a specific configuration described in the various embodiments below.
    [0069] In one aspect, a food peeler has several members that move relative to each other, and more particularly, opposing surfaces of the members can move in a longitudinal direction relative to each other. One or more of the opposing surfaces may be textured to increase friction between the textured surface and a food product, eg, a clove of garlic, being peeled. For example, the texture can be a friction surface, such as a rough surface. Consequently, the food product can be rolled between the opposing surfaces to cause an outer layer, eg, a skin, of the food product to loosen and/or be removed from a core of the food product.
    [0070] With reference to FIG. 1, a perspective view of a food peeler according to one embodiment is shown. A food peeler 100 can be used to remove an outer layer from a core of a food product. For example, the food peeler can be used to peel a garlic skin from a garlic core. In one embodiment, the food peeler may include a first member 102 and a second member 104. The first member may have a first inner surface 106, and the second member may have a second inner surface 108, which is opposite the first surface. internal. The members can move relative to each other, for example, in a longitudinal direction 110, and thus opposing surfaces can orient and move relative to each other.
    [0072] The members of the food peeler can be operatively coupled to each other. For example, in addition to being able to move relative to each other in the longitudinal direction, relative movement between the members may be limited in one or more different directions. In one embodiment, one or more of the members have a constraint to limit movement of the members in a predetermined direction. For example, the second member may have a restraint 112 to limit movement of the first member relative to the second member in a transverse direction 114 when the second member is mounted to the first member. Rather, restriction 112 may allow movement of the first member relative to the second member in another direction, eg, in a longitudinal direction to allow longitudinal movement between the members. In one embodiment, the transverse restraint may include member surfaces, eg, a first member first side surface 116 and a second member second side surface 118, that act as abutments against each other to limit transverse motion. In other embodiments, mechanisms such as bearings, tracks, bands, or other restraints may be used to allow limited relative movement between members of the food peeler.
    [0074] One or more of the internal surfaces of the members may have a rough texture. For example, the first inner surface may have a first rough texture 120. A structure of the rough texture is described in more detail with respect to certain embodiments in FIGS. 5A-5B below. At this point, however, it will be appreciated that the rough texture may be rough compared to an adjacent surface. For example, the rough texture of the first inner surface may be rougher (have a higher average surface roughness) than the first member side surface 116 that slides against the second member side surface 118.
    [0076] With reference to FIG. 2, a perspective view of a first member of a food peeler according to one embodiment is shown. The first member, in addition to the structural features described above, may include a base portion 202. The base portion may have a rectangular footprint and a thickness between a lower surface 204 and an upper surface 206. A zipper portion 208 may extend up from the base portion. The zipper portion may include first rough texture 120 and first side surface 116, as described above. In one embodiment, bottom surface 204 may be roughened, eg, knurled, to increase friction between the base portion and an external surface, eg, a table or a user's hand.
    [0078] With reference to FIG. 3, a perspective view of a second member of a food peeler according to one embodiment is shown. The second member, in addition to the structural features described above, may include a wall portion 302. The wall portion may include second internal surface 108. In one embodiment, second internal surface 108, like first internal surface 106, may have a second rough texture 304. For example, the second rough texture 304 may have the same structure and average surface roughness as the first rough texture 120. Alternatively, the first inner surface 106 may be smooth and/or have a rough texture. different texture or average surface roughness than the second inner surface 108.
    [0080] The wall portion may have a rectangular footprint and a thickness between a bottom surface 306 and a top surface 308. Here it is noted that a "top" and "bottom" surface have been used to describe the thicknesses of both the base portion of the first member and the wall portion of the second member. Such terminology, however, does not limit the use of the food peeler to a particular orientation. For example, if You will appreciate by comparing FIG. 1 and FIG. 4 that the food peeler can be used with the second member above the first member, or vice versa.
    [0082] One or more restrictions 112 may extend upwardly from the wall portion. For example, the restrictions 112 may be upwardly extending walls. The upwardly extending walls may be parallel side walls having lateral surfaces. More particularly, the restrictions may include second side surfaces 118, as described above. In one embodiment, bottom surface 306 may be roughened, eg, knurled, to increase friction between the wall portion and an external surface, eg, a table or a user's hand.
    [0084] With reference to FIG. 4, there is shown a cross-sectional view, taken about line A-A of FIG. 1, of a food peeler that peels a food product according to one embodiment. The first member may be mounted to the second member such that the first internal surface faces the second internal surface. For example, the surfaces may be flat surfaces, eg, flat surfaces, facing each other through a peel gap 402. Alternatively, the first inner surface and the second inner surface may be undulating surfaces (not shown). For example, a profile of the internal surfaces may be curvilinear along a cross section taken in the longitudinal direction or the transverse direction. The peeling space can be used to receive a food product 404, eg, a clove of garlic, for peeling. More particularly, when the food product is sandwiched between the first inner surface and the second inner surface, and the members move relative to each other longitudinally, the flat or undulating surfaces can grip and roll the food product to cause the skin to loosen and is removed from the kernel.
    [0086] When the members are mounted one on top of the other, for example when the zipper portion is wedged inside and laterally between the restraints, the first member is free to move relative to the second member. More particularly, the members can move freely in at least one direction, for example, the longitudinal direction. As described above, the movement of the members may be limited in at least one direction, eg, the transverse direction. In one embodiment, movement may be limited in various directions. For example, the food peeler may include a stop (not shown). The stop may limit the movement of the first member relative to the second member, for example in the longitudinal direction. The stopper could be a band that is connected to the first member at a first end and to the second member at a second end. Consequently, the movement of the members may be limited by a length of the band. More particularly, when the members move enough to place the web in tension, the stop can prevent further movement in the longitudinal direction.
    [0088] With reference to FIG. 5A, a detailed view of a rough texture of a food peeling surface according to one embodiment is shown. The rough texture of the inner surface(s), eg, the first inner surface, may include several points 502. For example, the points may extend from a base surface 504 to provide the rough texture of the first inner surface. The rough texture may be integral to, eg, formed monolithically with, the first member as shown in FIG. 1. Alternatively, the rough texture may be part of a separate component of the first member, eg, a texture layer that is attached to a smooth inner surface, as shown in FIG. 4. Tips can be thin. For example, each tip may have a height to width aspect ratio of at least 5, eg, 10 or more. The tips can be flexible and durable. For example, each tip can be formed from a food grade elastomer.
    [0090] With reference to FIG. 5B, a detailed view of a rough texture of a food peeling surface according to one embodiment is shown. The rough texture of the inner surface(s), eg, the first inner surface, may include several ridges 506. For example, the ridges may extend from a base surface 504 to provide the rough texture of the first inner surface. The rough texture may be integral with, for example, formed monolithically with, the first member as shown. in FIG. 1. Alternatively, the rough texture may be part of a separate component of the first member, eg, a texture layer that is attached to a smooth inner surface, as shown in FIG. 4. Ridges may extend in the transverse direction. For example, the ridges can be treads that have a width in the transverse direction that is greater than a height in a vertical direction. Similarly, a width of the ridges in the longitudinal direction may be less than the width in the transverse direction.
    [0092] The textured surface as described with respect to FIGS. 5A-5B can be used on the inner surface of any member of the food peeler. Furthermore, alternative textured surfaces may be contemplated within the scope of this description. More particularly, one skilled in the art will recognize that textured surfaces increase the friction between the moving members and the food product to enable the food peeler to more easily grip and roll the food product and thereby loosen and remove the coating. outer core. For example, one or more of the textured surfaces may have a flat substrate surface coated with an abrasive material, eg, a sandpaper-like structure. Accordingly, the description is intended to be illustrative and not limiting.
    [0094] With reference to FIG. 6, a perspective view of a food peeler having an alternate roughened surface according to one embodiment is shown. The rough texture(s) of the opposing surfaces may be textured planar polymer surfaces. For example, the surfaces may have a textured surface that resembles the surface of a shoe grip. These exemplary surface features are illustrated in FIG. 6.
    [0096] With reference to FIG. 7, a perspective view of a food peeler having an alternate roughened surface according to one embodiment is shown. The rough texture(s) of the opposing surfaces may have a patterned grip pattern. For example, the surface may have raised bumps extending upward from a flat base surface. Each of the bumps can have a shape respective, for example, an oval shape, a circular shape, a diamond shape, etc. The shapes can have similar or different sizes. For example, the bumps can include elliptical bumps that have widths and/or heights that are greater than a diameter of circular bumps on the surface. Specific surface features are illustrated in FIG. 7.
    [0098] Also, as shown in FIG. 7, the restraints that limit the movement of members 106, 108 relative to each other are optional. For example, the members may be respective flat plates having opposing surfaces between which the food product may be placed and rolled to remove a skin.
    [0100] With reference to FIGS. 8-10, an alternate embodiment of a food peeler is shown. This embodiment resembles the inverted embodiment of FIG. 4, in which the wall member 302 of the second member 104 is designed to be used on a flat surface, such as a table top. In these embodiments, in addition to a lower surface 306 and an upper surface 308, the wall member 302 also includes an extension 309. Here it is noted that a "lower" and "upper" surface have been used to describe the thicknesses of the upper portion. of second member wall 104. Such terminology, however, does not limit the use of the food peeler to a particular orientation. Advantageously, the extension 309 of the wall member 302 provides stability to the second member while also providing a location where a user can hold or hold the second member in place while moving the first member 102 back and forth against the first member. member. In some embodiments, a handle, grip, suction cup, or other similar structure (not shown) may be provided on the first member or second member (either member must be held in a stationary position), for a user to engage with the member. stationary while the other member moves with respect to and/or against it.
    [0102] In some embodiments, such as the one shown in FIGS. 8-10, a removable friction surface 120 may be provided on or around the inner surface 106 of the movable member (in this case, member 102). In these embodiments, the surface of friction 120 may be provided on a removable strap which may be made of a rubberized, elastic material, paper (such as sandpaper), or the like. Alternatively, friction surface 120 may be adhered directly to surface 106, or may be provided in the form of a coating that, when dry, provides adequate friction. When a strap is used in these embodiments, the position of the strap on the movable member can be rotated after a number of uses to expose a different portion of the strap for use as the opposing friction surface. The strap can also be easily removed for cleaning, repair or replacement. It should be appreciated that said strap may be made of rubberized material and may or may not also have additional bumps or friction structures thereon.
    [0104] Similarly, in the embodiments shown in FIGS. 8-10, the friction surface 304 of the base 104 may also be removable, may be made of a rubberized, elastic, paper, or similar material. Surface 304 may be provided on or around the inner surface 108 of the other member (in this case, member 104). Alternatively, friction surface 304 may be adhered directly to surface 108, or may be provided in the form of a coating that, when dry, provides adequate friction. When a strap is used in these embodiments, the position of the strap on the base member may be rotated after a number of uses to expose a different portion of the strap for use as the opposing friction surface. The strap can also be easily removed for cleaning, repair or replacement. It should be appreciated that said strap may be made of rubberized material and may or may not also have additional bumps or friction structures thereon. It should also be appreciated that, in these embodiments, strap 304 may extend along lower surface 306 of member 104 providing a roughened, eg, knurled, surface to increase friction between member 104 and an external surface, for example. example, a worktop or counter.
    [0106] It will be appreciated that surfaces 120 and 304 do not necessarily require bumps or patterns that have substantial or even significant relief compared to surfaces 106 and 108. For example, among others, a simple gummed material may be used. and nearly smooth for one or both surfaces 120 and 304. Such a gummed material will normally provide sufficient friction to engage the outer layer of the food product to be peeled, causing said outer layer to be removed when sandwiched between one or two moving layers of said material. Of course, in other embodiments, if additional friction is desired for different food products, any suitable pattern of bumps may be provided on one or both surfaces 120 and 304 to engage the outer layer(s) of said food products for removal.
    [0108] Advantageously, the food peeler described above can be easily loaded and unloaded. For example, a user may separate the members in the vertical direction (orthogonal to the longitudinal and transverse directions) to expose the zipper portion and/or the channel between the restraints. A food product can be placed in the channel or on the rack and the members can be mounted one on top of the other to sandwich the food product for peeling. After moving the elements longitudinally to roll the food product and peel the skin, the elements can be separated again to lift the peeled core from the channel for use in cooking. While being separated, members can be placed under running water or immersed in water to wash worn skins and clean textured surfaces. In other embodiments, blowing air over the separate members may be sufficient to displace and remove any debris or spent skins removed from the food products. The procedure can be quickly and easily repeated to increase food processing performance compared to existing food peeling devices.
    [0110] In the foregoing specification, the invention has been described with reference to specific exemplary embodiments thereof. Various modifications and changes may be made therein without departing from the spirit and broadest scope of the invention, as set forth in the following claims. Accordingly, the specification and drawings are to be considered in an illustrative manner rather than in a restrictive sense.
