Device for cracking a shell of a food item
First Claim
1. A device for cracking a shell of a food item, the device comprising:
- a first plier, a second plier and a pivot rotatably connecting the first plier with the second plier for enabling the food item, when arranged between the pliers, to be compressed between the pliers by rotation of the pliers towards each other;
a lockable spacing arrangement comprising an acceleration dependent locking device adapted to permit the rotation of the two pliers towards each other if an acceleration of the rotation is below a threshold value and adapted to lock the rotation of the two pliers towards each other if the acceleration of the rotation is equal to or exceeding said threshold value.
