Abstract: The plantain peeler is a kitchen appliance that allows a person to easily and efficiently remove the skin from plantains. The device would consist of a slicing mechanism and a peeling mechanism integrated into a housing with a discard tray at the bottom and a plastic backsplash surrounding the peeling mechanism. The slicing mechanism would consist of four semicircular blades connected to a circular guide which rotate towards each other when activated and would be used to slice the tip from a plantain. The peeling mechanism would consist of four arcuate blades arranged in a circular manner that would force the peel from the plantain as it passes through the mechanism. A discard tray would be provided at the bottom of the device to catch the peel, a tip retrieval opening would be provided in the housing behind the slicing mechanism, and a plantain retrieval passage would be provided in the housing behind the peeling mechanism.
