  • Publication number: 20250072644
    Abstract: A juicing module for cooperating with a preparation vessel with at least one rotatable tool holder, having at least one drive interface and at least one juicer tool, wherein the juicer tool is connectable to the drive interface so that a rotation of at least a part of the juicer tool can be effected with a rotation of the drive interface. The juicer tool has at least one guide body and at least one sieve unit, in that a movement between guide body and sieve unit can be effected with a rotation of the drive interface, and in that the guide body and the sieve unit are designed/arranged such that, with a relative movement between guide body and sieve unit, a foodstuff to be juiced can be conveyed into a tapering gap between the guide body and sieve unit in order to bring about a pressing force on the foodstuff.

  • Publication number: 20230024102
    Abstract: A method for peeling potatoes with a food processor and a food processor which comprises for food preparation a detachable food preparation vessel, a heating element for heating a food in the food preparation vessel and a rotatable tool for mixing or chopping the food in the food preparation vessel. The method includes attaching a potato peeling disc having an abrasive structure on its surface from above to the tool which is located centrally at a bottom of the food preparation vessel to establish a manually releasable, rotationally coupled connection such that in operation the potato peeling disc rotates at the same rotational speed as the tool; addition of potatoes into the food preparation vessel from above onto the potato peeling disc; motorized rotation of the tool in a first direction of rotation and peeling of the potatoes with the potato peeling disc inside the food preparation vessel.
