| 摘要 |
The invention is directed to a food processing apparatus (2) having a lid (22) adapted to be placed on a vessel (10), with a cover member (26) of semi-circular cross section and having a passage (24) opening into the vessel (10) being provided on the lid. The cover member (26) is provided with a vertically extending rectangular receiving opening (32) for receiving a semi-cylindrical receptacle (34) adapted to swivel through 180 DEG between a loading position and a discharge position. The receptacle (34) is adapted to receive whole fruits (45) without the operator contacting the shredding or cutting tools (12, 13), because the receiving opening (32) is closed in the loading position of the receptacle (34). Following loading of the fruits (45) into the receptacle (34), the latter is swivelled through 180 DEG , enabling the fruits to be discharged through the passage (24) into the vessel (10) where a cutter blade (12) is used, while in the use of a shredding or cutting disc (13) the fruits will come to lie on the disc for being processed following which they will drop into the lower part of the vessel (10). With the receptacle (34) in the discharge position, the processing tool (12) is not accessible from the outside either because in this position, too, the receptacle (34) maintains the receiving opening (32) closed.
