Abstract:
A device for extracting juice from fruit and/or vegetable items, in particular apples (10), wherein a pressing chamber (26) is arranged to be moved relative to said device in a repeating sequence to three different positions (31,32,33), said three positions being: a first position (31) wherein a pulp receiving opening of the pressing chamber (26) is located immediately adjacent a grater unit (16), such that in said position a grating step can take place wherein said pulp is received from the grater unit (16) directly in the pressing chamber (26); a second position (32) wherein the pulp receiving opening is located immediately adjacent a pressing plunger (34) and the pulp ejection opening is located immediately adjacent a pressing sieve (35), such that in said position a pressing step can take place wherein juice is pressed from the pulp through the sieve (35) and into juice collecting means (37); and a third position (33) wherein the pulp ejection opening is in open communication with pulp collecting means (6), such that in said position a pulp ejection step can take place wherein the pulp is removed from the pressing chamber (26) through the ejection opening.
