Claim:
A cutting guide device for slicing a texture mass to obtain texture slices, comprising: a placing base for placing the texture mass directly or indirectly thereon; a cutting guide cover preventing said texture mass placed directly or indirectly on said placing base from moving by holding the texture mass downward in a manner in which an end potion side rotates around fulcrum shafts provided on a base side portion; and a pressing member preventing the cutting guide cover from being displaced with respect to the texture mass held by the cutting guide cover; wherein a contacting portion is so formed to curve or protrude in an opposite direction to the pressing direction at least in a portion of the cutting guide cover which presses the texture mass; a plurality of slits, into which a knife to be used for cutting the texture mass can be inserted, are formed at said contacting portion; the plurality of slits are provided with intervals therebetween which are set to a thickness of each desired texture slices; the placing base has bearing portions which support and enable the fulcrum shafts to rotate and to be removable and replaceable; the bearing portions have at least one of opening portions, pores, or insections, which guide the fulcrum shafts to be moved in a vertical direction with respect to the fulcrum shafts for adjusting the height of the fulcrum shafts; and the pressing member comprises: a bracing strut portion having a screw thread and formed vertically on a placing surface of the placing base; a connecting portion which extends to the side from the bracing strut portion; and a pressing part which is formed downward from a tip of the connecting portion; wherein a base tip portion of the connecting portion has a screw hole for the bracing strut portion, and the height and direction of the connecting portion can be adjusted by rotating the connecting portion horizontally; and a bolt hole is formed at a tip portion of the connecting portion, said bolt hole is formed for a screw which is provided with the pressing part at a lower end thereof, and by rotating the screw to move the screw up and down, the height of the pressing part can be adjusted so that the pressing part presses a tip-side surface of the cutting guide cover.
