1176.005 S P E C I F I C A T I O N ROTARY FOOD PROCESSING TOOL HAVING OFFSET HUB INVENTOR: JAMES E. WILLIAMS ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A rotary food processing tool is provided for use in a food processor of the type including a housing containing an electric motor drive, a bowl mountable on the housing for enclosing the tool, said tool being rotated by said motor drive, and a removable cover on the bowl with a feed tube for feeding food items onto the rotating tool and into the bowl. The rotary tool has an elongated hub with a head on one end and coupling means adapted to be coupled to the electric motor drive. The head of the hub is offset from the coupling means such that it revolves around the axis of rotation of the coupling means. The tool includes a horizontal disc-like member mounted on the huh head at a location radially offset from the center axis of the disc- like member. Cutting means on the disc member extends from near the axis to the periphery. Accordingly, the cutting means, which may be a slicing blade or other cutting imple- ments, extends for substantially the entire radius of the disc member contrasting with prior art tools wherein the hub is central and, therefore, prior cutting means can extend or only part of the radius, providing a significantly shorter cutting surface and smaller cutting capacity. The novel cutting surface extending for substantially a full radius of the disc member permits processing of larger food items and accommodates use of feed tubes of larger radial width for feeding larger food items.
