Abstract
A grater with a cylindrical housing which on an end side is limited by a grating insert arranged in a rotationally fixed and exchangeable manner. In the housing there is mounted a receiving cylinder with entraining means. The receiving cylinder accommodates the grating product and is rotationally and movably mounted. A pressing body which is axially movable in the receiving cylinder is in a positive-fit active connection with the entraining means of the receiving cylinder. The pressing body has a rotary knob projecting beyond the housing and the receiving cylinder in every position of use. In the housing, perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the housing, there is arranged an insertion slot through which the exchangeable grating insert is insertable. In an inserted condition the grating insert rests on a support in the housing and is held in a positioned manner by a centric peg on the receiving cylinder.
