When placing a brake, for example a pomine, between the straps 14, 14....... which are intended to maintain and center the brake on the device, it care must be taken to locate the part comprising the tail on the first knife 12; in this way, by exerting pressure on the first fret by means of the lever ä, hand 6 lowering the organs 7 and 9, an can cut the first fret into four quarters by means of the knives 14, 14'..., while that simultaneously the core of the fruit and the other unusable parts will be cut out by the knife 12.

Pendant 1e trajet d'abaissement du freit Sur les couteaux, les lames 14, 14'... exercent constamment une Pression autour du freit, de fagon ä, empecher 1'6clatement de ce dernier. During the lowering path of the freight on the knives, the blades 14, 14'... constantly exert pressure around the freight, so as to prevent the bursting of the latter.

Les quartiers des fruits sont recueillis dass un reeipient 15, dont Je fond est pourvu d'un tube vertical 16; 1'orifice superieur de ce dernier doit etre situ6 au-dessous du eouteau 12 de maniere ä recueillir les d6bris tombant de celui-ei, et de les 6vacuei# ainsi au travers du r6cipierit 15; les d6bris ainsi 6vaeu6s sont recueillis dans un second rAcipient, non repr6 sente, dispose au-dessous du recipient 15. The fruit quarters are collected in a reeipient 15, the bottom of which is provided with a vertical tube 16; the upper orifice of the latter must be located below the knife 12 so as to collect the debris falling from the latter, and thus to evacuate them through the receptacle 15; the debris thus 6vaeu6s are collected in a second container, not shown, arranged below the container 15.

Le prolongement cylindrique 9' est destine ä, penetrer dann une certaine mesure ä; 1'in terieur du couteau 12, de fagon ä, ce que la Partie du freit opposk ä la queue sofft de coup@e et Pressee dans 1'evideinent du cou teau 12. The cylindrical extension 9' is intended to penetrate to a certain extent ä; inside the knife 12 so that the portion of the blade opposite the shank is cut and pressed into the recess of the knife 12.

0n peut ainsi preparer rapidement les fruits, des pommes en particulier, en ]es divisant en quartiers, en vue de leer utilisa tion imm6diate, dans quel aas ]es pommes seront pel6es auparavant, sofft pour proceder au sechage des quartiers de fruits, ceei en vue de leer conservation. En plagant u, la plaee du dispositif pour preparer les fruits un deuxieme dispositif, i-epr6sente par les fig.2, 4 et 5, et en remplagant ä 1'extreniite inN rieure de la tige 7 1'organe 9 par 1'organe 10, tel que represente ä la fig. 2, an peut utiliser la machine pour la pr6paration de diff6rents legrimes en v ue de leer enh:son, tels que ]es carottes, pomines de terre, raues, etc., en divisant ces derniers en inor ceaux de forme quadrangulaire ou rectangu laire. It is thus possible to quickly prepare the fruits, apples in particular, by dividing them into quarters, with a view to their immediate use, in which case the apples will be peeled beforehand, sofft to dry the quarters of fruit, this in view of leer conservation. Plagant u, the place of the device for preparing the fruit a second device, i-epr6sente by fig.2, 4 and 5, and replacing at 1'extreniite inN higher of the rod 7 the organ 9 by the organ 10, as shown in FIG. 2, the machine can be used for the preparation of different legrimes with a view to leer enh:son, such as carrots, potatoes, loaves, etc., dividing the latter into small pieces of quadrangular or rectangular shape .

Le dispositif utilis6 porir la pr6paration des Mgumes est constitue paff, in) anneau 17, ä, 1'interieur duquel sont fixes de champ des couteaux 18, 18'. 18"... entrecroises perpen diculairement avec des couteaux egalement disposAs de ehanip 19, 19', 19"..., de ina niere ä constituer ainsi en quelque Sorte une grille tranchante comportant des evidements quadrangulaires. The device used for the preparation of vegetables consists of a ring 17, 5, inside which are fixed field knives 18, 18'. 18"... criss-crosses perpendicularly with knives also disposed of ehanip 19, 19', 19"..., in order to thus constitute in some way a sharp grid comprising quadrangular recesses.

En interposant wie pomme de terre, par exemple, entre 1'organe 10 et la grille tran chante, il suffit au moyen de la presse d'exercer une Pression Sur la pomme de terre, de maniere ä, la faire penetrer au travers de ladite grille pour obtenir une division de la pomme de terre_en morceaux de forme rectan gulaire; pour pr6parer les Mgumes en mor ceaux quadrangulaires, il suffit de couper lesdits Mgumes en tranehes pour les diviser ensuite avec la machine. By interposing a potato, for example, between the member 10 and the cutting grid, it suffices by means of the press to exert pressure on the potato, so as to cause it to penetrate through said grid to obtain a division of the potato_in pieces of rectangular shape; to prepare the vegetables in quadrangular pieces, it suffices to cut the said vegetables into slices to then divide them with the machine.

Les Mgumes ainsi prepares sont recueillis dans un r6cipient 20 reposant Sur 1e Support 3. The vegetables thus prepared are collected in a receptacle 20 resting on the first support 3.
