<p>A rotary slicing tool is provided for a food processor having a hub with a horizontal disc-like member carrying an elevated slicing blade. The disc-like member has a horizontal area with an arcuate slot extending from the hub out to the periphery. The slicing blade is mounted on an elevated arcuate rim behind the slot with the cutting edge projecting forward and elevated above the horizontal area facing forward above the slot for slicing food items, with the slices passing down through the slot. For avoiding smashing or shredding of slices, a gradually sloping shoulder joins the horizontal area with the elevated platform having the rim where the slicing blade is mounted. Both ends of the blade are contoured to conform with the rotational direction of travel; the outer end conforming with the periphery of the disc-like member, and the inner end conforming with the hub, and the cutting edge is spaced well forward of the shoulder near both ends of the slicing blade. The shoulder is also gently sloped, rounded and contoured to conform with the motion of the disc relative to the slices being formed and passing through the slot in the fast-turning tool, whereby food items are uniformly sliced by the blade with the slices being gently deflected by or missing the gradually sloping contoured shoulder without being smashed or otherwise damaged particularly near the outer end of the fast-revolving slicing blade.</p> |
