Abstract: The present invention relates to improvements in machines for squeezing citrus fruits. These improved machines incorporate a novel, high capacity "revolver" system in which oranges or other pieces of fruit are placed. They also include an innovative mechanism for squeezing each piece of fruit, whereby extraction of the juice is carried out by means of a small vertical displacement whereby each half of the piece of fruit, located in an individual alveolus, presses against a corresponding squeezing cone. Conventionally, the extraction of the juice is carried out by means of a simultaneous and coincident rotating motion of the cones and the corresponding alveoli.By means of the improvements introduced by the present invention, it is possible to achieve very clear fruit juices, taking full advantage of the fruit. Furthermore, the fruit juices can be obtained at room temperature or at colder temperatures.
