A food processor includes a bowl with a removable lid. Food items are advanced into the bowl through a feed tube formed in the lid where they are cut by a blade assembly. A rotating disk is adjustable relative to the blade assembly to vary the thickness of the food items cut by the blade assembly.

Food processor with adjustable blade assembly

A food processor includes a base and a bowl with a removable lid. Food items are advanced into the bowl through a feed tube formed in the lid where they are cut by a cutting assembly driven by a motor. The cutting assembly is adjustable to vary the thickness of the cut food items. An adjustment assembly positioned in the base is operable to adjust the cutting thickness of the cutting assembly while the cutting assembly is driven by the motor.

Food processing device with an externally operated adjustment mechanism

A food processing device () includes a drive assembly coupled to a dualaction cutting tool () and a single-action dicing tool (). First and second cutting assemblies () are disposed on the cutting tool () and are adapted to make first and second cuts in a food substrate as the cutting tool () rotates within a food processing path (). The cutting tool () is further adapted to urge the cut food substrate towards and through the dicing tool () where generally parallel spaced-apart blades () further cut the food substrate to form diced food elements. The sequential cutting arrangement of the cutting tool () and the dicing tool () provides for a food processing device () that is capable of dicing a food substrate with lower torque and lower power requirements as compared to conventional dicing methods.
