A food wedger for slicing food such as apples into wedge shaped segments and coring the food comprises a frame having a base that supports a cutter assembly. The cutter assembly comprises a plurality of cutter blades radiating outwardly and upwardly from a central ring in an inverted cone-shaped radial array. The blades are fixed to the central ring and, are fixed at the periphery of the assembly to a peripheral support ring. A tapered segmented pusher having radial slots and a central pin is mounted for selective advancement through the cutter assembly. When so advanced, the blades of the assembly pass through the slots and the central pin of the pusher passes through the central ring of the cutter assembly. Food to be wedged is placed in the cutter assembly and the pusher is advanced through the cutter to force the food past the blades, which cuts the periphery of the food into wedge-shaped segments. The core of the food is, at the same time, cut away by the central ring. The food wedges are pressed completely through the cutter assembly by the pusher and the core of the food is pressed completely through the central support ring by the central pin of the pusher, thus clearing the wedger completely in preparation for successive cuts.

Food wedger

A food cutting machine for cutting food into strips or cubes has first and second rotatable shafts, each having an array of cutter discs thereon. The cutter discs on one shaft are offset from corresponding discs on the other shaft and form cutter pairs therewith, the spacing between pairs being substantially greater than the spacing between the discs forming the pairs. Guide means extending between cutter pairs define the maximum thickness of meat that can be cut, and the discs forming a pair overlap a distance equal to or greater than one-half the spacing between the guide means.

Meat cutter

A food cutting apparatus for making multiple radial cuts in a work piece such as an onion has a cutter assembly formed as a truncated cone by a plurality of radially extending cutter blades. The cutter assembly cuts through the work piece until it encounters stops which prevent it from passing completely through the work piece. Ejector members are provided for separating the cutter assembly from the work piece after the cutting operation.
