PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a food processor in which a processing basket with an open upper face is housed in a water tank with an open upper face, in which a driving device for rotating the processing basket is installed so that the open face is inclined in one direction, and in which deviation produced inside the processing basket is eliminated without increasing the number of pumps and in a manner that facilitating maintenance.SOLUTION: The processing basket has a part of the wall face formed with a mesh, with water made to freely flow in and out of the processing basket 12. In a side edge part that is situated low when the processing basket 12 is inclined, a chute 21 is installed and, in a side wall bottom part of the water tank 13 in a side edge part that is situated high when the processing basket 12 is inclined, there is installed a rotary water wheel 40 that directs water flow to the mesh of the processing basket 12. A stepped part 36 is provided on the bottom of the processing basket 12, with a difference-in-level surface of the stepped part arranged to face in the direction in which water flow produced by the rotary water wheel 40 is received.COPYRIGHT: (C)2014,JPO&INPIT【課題】上面が開放された水槽内に、上面が開放された処理籠を収納し、この処理籠の開放面が一方向に傾斜するように回動させる駆動装置を設けた食品処理装置の処理籠内で生じる偏りを、ポンプなどを増やすことなく、かつメンテナンス容易な形態で解決する。【解決手段】上記処理籠は、その壁面の一部が網目状に形成され、この処理籠12の内外を水の出入りが自在であり、処理籠12の傾斜時に低位となる側縁部にシュート21を設けると共に、処理籠12の傾斜時に高位となる側縁部の水槽13の側壁底部に、処理籠12の網目へ水流を向ける回転水車40を設け、処理籠12の底部に、段差部36を設け、この段差部の段差面を、回転水車40により生じた水流を受ける方向に向けるように配する。【選択図】図1
