Abstract: The invention relates to a pressing body for obtaining fruit juice and/or fruit pulp from citrus fruit, comprising a dome-shaped pressing surface comprising a top and a base, as well as ribs extending between the top and the base, wherein a cross section of the pressing body at right angles to the central axis of the pressing body has a substantially zigzag-shaped periphery, wherein each rib is provided with a flank which slopes steeply from the circumscribed circle of the periphery and a flank which slopes gradually from the circumscribed circle of the periphery, wherein the angle which is included between the circumscribed circle and the steeply sloping flank is greater than the angle included by the circumscribed circle and the gradually sloping flank, and wherein the steeply sloping flank and the gradually sloping flank of adjoining ribs along the periphery face each other.
