An automatic ice cream scooper. A cylinder of ice cream is placed vertically within a refrigerated container on a slicer having a disc shape. The slicer includes an angled slicing blade for removing ice cream. The slicer is rotated by a motor to remove the ice cream. The slicer has an upstanding edge with the screw thread formed thereon for removing the sidewall of the ice cream container.

An apple wedger for cutting fruits or vegetables into wedges or other desired shapes includes a slicer and a pusher, in which the slicer has a peripheral frame and internal cutting blades. The pusher is configured to be used to push at least partially sliced food items through the gaps between cutting blades. In some versions, the pusher is pivotally attached to the slicer.

A fruit coring system for a fruit such as a coconut having a central cavity therein in which the system consists of a coring assembly and a corkscrew assembly. The coring assembly is a pipe-like segment having a length proportioned to a depth sufficient to reach the central cavity of the fruit, the segment having a serrated first end and an open second end having internal threadings; and lateral hardware attached to and extending from an outer surface of the second end of the pipe-like segment, for facilitating selectable rotation of the pipe-like segment after the corkscrew assembly has positioned the pipe-like assembly upon the fruit to be cored. The corkscrew assembly includes a corkscrew proper; a boss proportioned for threadable engagement with the threaded inner surface of the second end of the pipe-like segment, in which the boss is integral with a second end of the elongate member; and a handle of the corkscrew assembly which is integral to a side of the boss opposite said elongate member. The aggregate length of the entirety of the corkscrew assembly substantially exceeds a length of the coring assembly.

In one aspect of the invention, a container for displaying, preparing and presenting food including a base having an integrated cutter having a plurality of blades and a central hub and a cover removably attached to the base for displaying the food prior to use and for storing the food during and after cutting, the cover having indentations to receive the central hub and possibly the blades to enhance the depth of cutting by the cutter through the food. The base and cover have side walls dimensioned so that the cover interfaces with the base after driving.

An apparatus for cutting and removing the cores of produce such as fruit or leafy vegetables, particularly cabbage or lettuce, prior to the processing of the vegetable. The apparatus has a coring tube, a shaft, and a chisel, where the coring tube is attached to the distal end of the shaft, and the proximal end of the shaft is inserted into the pneumatic chisel. The coring tube has a cylindrical coring blade at its distal end, which is inserted into the fruit or vegetable to be cored using a rapid linear and / or rotational oscillation motion provided by an electric or pneumatic driver. Cut portions of the fruit or vegetable can be removed from the proximal end of the coring tube.

A roller grill separating device having a clip capable of being attached to a grill roller, a center section, and upper sign clips to hold supplemental signage. The center section stabilizes the device and prevents it from rotating. The center section accommodates a cross bar, a separator bar, a thermometer, and signs. A plurality of devices can be used to form a wall or the device can be used with a separator bar and a crossover bar to create a separate area on the grill so that uncooked products do not touch cooked products. One or more device can be replaced with a flavor identification device. The flavor identification device includes a slide-in signage area for sign clips that are used for identifying and marketing different types of food products such as hot dogs. The device is inexpensive to make, is sanitary and made of a heat resistant material.
