Abstract
A juicer or a juice extractor having a vertically-arranged grinding chamber and compression chamber. The material to be ground into juice is first ground in the grinding chamber and then compressed in the compression chamber by a pair of Archimedes' screws; and in this case, the direction of movement of the material in the compression chamber is designed so as to be opposite to that in the grinding chamber.
Claims7
A juice extractor equipped with a grinding chamber containing a pair of helical gears which grind an inserted material and a compression chamber containing one or more Archimedes' screws which move the ground material and being connected to said grinding chamber by means of a passage, characterized by the fact that:
- a direction of movement of said material moved by said Archimedes' screws is opposite to a direction of movement of said helical gear.
A juice extractor equipped with a grinding chamber containing a pair of helical gears which grind inserted materials and a compression chamber containing a pair of Archimedes' screws which move the ground material and being connected to said grinding chamber by means of a passage characterized by the fact that:
- a direction of movement of said material moved by said Archimedes' screws is opposite to a direction of movement of said helical gears,
- said compression chamber is located underneath said grinding chamber, and
- said helical gears and said Archimedes' screws are driven by a single motor.
A juice extractor comprising a main body including a driving source and a drive gear chain and a detachable gear housing including a grinding chamber and a compression chamber provided vertically, said grinding chamber containing a pair of helical gears for grinding and moving material in one direction, said compression chamber containing a pair of Archimedes' screws for moving said material ground by said helical gears, and said grinding chamber and said compression chamber being communicated with each other via a passage provided in between, said juice extractor being characterized in that:
- a spiral thread of said Archimedes' screws is formed so that a direction of movement of said material by said Archimedes' screws is opposite to said one direction of movement of said helical gears, and
- said helical gears and said Archimedes' screws are driven by said driving source of said main body.
