Abstract
Abstract A vegetable chopper in the form of a frame on which a knife blade is fitted to a lower end of a vertical member slidably mounted on the frame. A lever arm, pivotably mounted to the frame is shaped with a slot in which a pin, fixed to the slidable vertical member travels. Manual pivoting of the lever causes the vertical member to move in a linear direction to cause the knife blade to reciprocate with regard to a chopping box, mounted on the base of the frame.
