Abstract: A press is provided including a perforated draining drum; a juice collecting vat on a bottom of which the perforated drum is rested; a mobile member, located above the drum and activated with a vertical movement by powering device; a presser plate, which descends in the drum, to press the load; raising mechanism for raising the drum to extract the pressed product residue. The press also includes: a stem, carried by the mobile member, having a lower end to which the plate is fixed and having a variable length between a maximum and a minimum length which is reached following descent of the mobile member and an elastic member acting on the stem to increase its length, thereby displacing the residue of pressed product out of the drum. The residue is evacuated automatically by simple bodies which do not require operating liquids which might undesirably fall into the collecting vat.

Abstract: A press and a method for pressing food products, the press comprising a compartment (10) designed to contain products for pressing and delimited by at least a pressing wall (400, 401, 405) rotatingly and alternatingly mobile between an initial position and a final position such as to reduce a volume of the compartment (10) and press the contained products, and vice versa.

Abstract: Gymnastic machine having a frame (10) and an exercise station (20) provided with at least one footrest (30) movable with respect to the frame (10) along a first open trajectory (P1); each footrest (30) being supported rotatably by a first rocker arm (42) in turn supported by a second rocker arm (44) coupled rotatably to the frame (10); a device (50) to control rotation of the first rocker arm (42) being carried on the second rocker arm (44) to minimise the size of the volumes engaged by movable masses in the exercise station (20) and around each footrest (30).
