Abstract

See full text

The invention provides a device (10) for helically slicing a potato. The device (10) includes a sleeve (22) and a chuck (44) connected to the sleeve (22), the chuck (44) being rotatable about an axis of rotation (42) and including a skewer holder for holding a skewer (32) such that the skewer (32) is co-axial with the axis (42). A blade (56) is mounted on the sleeve (22) for linear displacement in a direction parallel to the axis (42), the blade (56) having a radially extending cutting edge (60) and being anchored against rotation relative to the sleeve (22). The blade (56) is shaped to abut a potato on the skewer (32), but to permit a free end of the skewer (32) to pass through it, so that synchronous rotation and the chuck (44) and linear displacement of the blade (56) results in helical slicing of a skewered potato.
