The invention concerns a device for peeling elongated vegetables, particularly asparagus. The device has a housing (2) with an opening (4) designed to permit a stick of asparagus (50) to be inserted. Inside the housing (2) are several peeling blades (12, 12') which are disposed at different angles with respect to the opening (4) and which act on the stick of asparagus (50). At least one of the blades (12, 12') can move at right angles to the longitudinal axis (6) of the opening (4) and presses flexibly against the stick of asparagus (50). The blades (12,12') each have a cutting edge (19, 19') at the front of which with inspect to the cutting direction (23) a feeler (20, 20') is located. During the peeling operation, the feeler (20, 20') lies against the stick of asparagus and guides the blade (12, 12') tangentially along the outside surface of the stick (50). The device enables sticks of asparagus (50) of differing diameter to be peeled simply in one operation round the whole of their peripheral area.
L'invention concerne un dispositif pour éplucher des légumes allongés, de préférence des asperges. Le dispositif comporte un boîtier (2) pourvu d'une ouverture (4) dans laquelle ont introduit une tige d'asperge (50). L'intérieur du boîtier (2) comprend plusieurs couteaux éplucheurs (12, 12') disposés à des angles différents par rapport à l'ouverture (4), qui agissent sur la tige d'asperge (50). Au moins un des couteaux (12, 12') se déplace transversalement au sens longitudinal (6) de l'ouverture (4) et s'appuie contre la tige d'asperge (50) de manière élastique. Les couteaux (12, 12') comportent un tranchant (19, 19') devant lequel un palpeur (20, 20') est monté, dans le sens d'épluchage (23). Pendant l'épluchage, le palpeur (20, 20') repose sur la tige d'asperge et guide le conteau (12, 12') de manière tangentielle le long du contour extérieur de ladite tige d'asperge (50). Ce dispositif permet d'éplucher aisément en une seule opération des tiges d'asperges (50) de différentes diamètres, sur toute leur surface circonférentielle.
