The case is provided on its upper side near the wide end of the bore with a material inlet opening, on its lower side with a liquid outlet opening having a filter therein, and on a lateral side near the narrow end of the bore with a residual solids outlet opening. The cutting blade portion is spiral and has portion disposed near and confronting the material inlet opening. The pressing portion is conical (but oppositely disposed to the conical bore) and has portions disposed near and confronting both the liquid outlet opening and the residual solids discharge opening.
