Par′er.
In Fig. 3558, the apple, fixed on the rotary fork c, is pared by the knife k, also rotated by bevel gearing. When the knife makes a revolution, completing the paring operation, a projection m on the horizontal bevel-wheel strikes the foot of the pivoted lever n, throwing its upper end forward so as to push the apple from the fork. The lever is then brought back to place by a spring p. In the apple-parer (Fig. 3559) the cutter is carried on an upright A, pivoted at bottom, having a projecting arm k, which is once during each revolution struck by an inclined cam on the upper side of the bevel-wheel f, causing it to make a partial revolution, and throwing the knife back so that the apple may be readily removed from the fork. |
