CA 2571907

Fruit items (1) are positioned between vertical pins (2, 5) located in the calyx and stem hole of said fruit item, thereby securing the fruit item by a compressive force through its core. A core tube (3) surrounding the upper pin descends to meet the lower pin, thereby completely piercing the fruit item and isolating its core inside the tube. A cushioned ram (4) pushes the edible portion of the fruit item down over the core tube, through a cassette of radial knives (6), creating a plurality of wedges that fall immediately into an enzyme bath. The bath seals freshness into the fruit item's cell structure by preventing contact with oxygen. The solid core is ejected and the edible outside portion of the fruit item is not touched or bruised by mechanical handling.

Selon la présente invention, des fruits sont placés entre des broches verticales placées dans le calice et le trou du pédoncule du fruit, ce qui permet de fixer le fruit sous l'effet d'une force de compression s'exerçant à travers l'endocarpe. Un tube central entourant la broche supérieure descend jusqu'à rencontrer la broche inférieure, perçant de la sorte entièrement le fruit et isolant l'endocarpe à l'intérieur du tube. Un bras de compression à amortissement pousse la partie comestible du fruit vers le bas, par-dessus le tube central, à travers une cassette de couteaux radiaux, créant une pluralité de tranches coniques qui tombent immédiatement dans un bain d'enzymes. Le bain préserve la fraîcheur à l'intérieur de la structure cellulaire du fruit en l'empêchant d'entrer en contact avec l'oxygène. L'endocarpe solide est éjecté et la partie extérieure comestible du fruit n'est ni touchée ni abîmée par une quelconque manipulation mécanique.
