Owners of gardens, vineyards and berry plantations are familiar with the problem of crop processing. Effective way to solve it is a cold spin of juice. This process allows for a long time to save the vitamin value of fruits and berries without the construction of bulk storage.
The main mechanism of the country's "cansha" is a press for squeezing juice. It helps quickly and without loss to recycled hundreds of kilograms of the harsh harvest.
We will talk about existing species, principles of work and cost of equipment to obtain juice in this article. For domestic masters, information on the features of self-making a powerful "juicer" will be useful.
Types and principles of operation of juiced presses
Installations intended for pressing juice are divided into mechanical, hydraulic, electro-hydraulic and pneumatic.
The most common mechanism is a mechanical screw press.
Screw press for pressing juice is simple and reliable
The principle of its work is clear at first glance: crushed fruits are laid in a container with holes, grapes or berries pour. After that, the rotation of the handle actuates the screw, lowering the flat piston. The squeezed juice through the holes in the casing flows into the pallet, and from there enters banks or another container.
In addition to stainless steel for the manufacture of casing use solid wood beech. From it make a drainage grid. It consists of two halves connected by metal hoops.
The upgraded version of such a device is a manual hydraulic press for apples and grapes.
It has no perforated container for juice separation. Instead, it uses several wooden drainage frames. Bags with crushed raw materials are laid between them. Handmade hydraulic acid develops a large force (from 1 to 5 tons). Due to this, the volume of the resulting juice reaches 70% of the volume of the laid fruit.
The original module is implemented in the GRIFO hydraulic press (Griffo). It does not have a hydraulic jack, but a powerful membrane "Barrel" has been installed. It is expanding under the pressure of tap water (1.5-2 atm.) And squeezes juice through the perforated wall of the casing.
Hydropress Griffo - connected to the water supply and squeezed juice
By a similar principle, a pneumatic press is running. Only the membrane davilka in it is filled with water, but compressed air from the compressor.
Pneumatic press for pressing juice. Screw piston replaced rubber membrane
Since all juice presss work in a pair with shredders, you need to say a few words about these devices. The easiest mechanism is a steel drum-grater, placed in a casing with a loading neck. The rotation of the handle the chopper is activated, turning the fruit into a small crumb-mezuge.
A more advanced option - a device with an electric drive. Minimum of physical effort and maximum performance are the main arguments in his favor.
It should be noted that the performance of mechanical presses is small (10-30 liters per hour). Nevertheless, for most country households it is enough.
To improve the quality and increase the exit of juice, two ways are used:
- Container bags for crushed fruits.
- Wooden drainage lattices or "pancakes" from stainless steel.
Both methods improve the mud out of the middle of the compressible volume. Without such a drainage, medium layers of crushed fruits are squeezed worse than the upper and lower ones. Additional plus from the use of bags - the release of juice from the pulp.
Large processing volumes require the use of an electric drive. Here you can distinguish two types of equipment: the traditional screw mechanism driven by a pair of "Electromotor-hydrodomkrat" and a screw press that works on the principle of meat grinder.
A screw press juicer with an electric motor is designed for recycling berries, grapes and tomatoes. Grinding raw materials, auger pushes him through a sieve and produces juice with plenty of pulp.
Auger press - a relative of the household juicer
Approximate prices
The cost of manual screw presses for pressing of the juice directly depends on their container. The price of 10-15 liters with a working capacity of 10-15 liters is in the range of 9,000 to 15,000 rubles. For the manual press, which places 25 liters of raw materials, will have to pay at least 20,000 rubles.
The average price of domestic "Social Software", carried out by hydraulic jack, is 19,000 rubles. Pneumatic press for pressing juice from apples can be bought for 34,000 rubles. For the hydraulic device of the membrane type, sellers are asking for 94,000 rubles.
How to make a press for pressing juice with your own hands?
The most complex knot of the manual juice press is a powerful screw. It is impossible to make it without the help of a qualified tokary. In this case, each car owner has a mechanism perfectly suitable for squeezing juice. This is a hydraulic or mechanical jack. Using it, you can make a good homemade press for juice.
The main task is to cook a solid frame from the metal profile, in which the jack will be driving. For this purpose, you can take trimming of a square pipe (cross section 40x40 mm, the wall thickness of at least 3 mm).
Making the drawing of the press, the height of the frame is chosen, based on the height of the jack, the thickness of lining, drainage grids and pouch with raw materials. The width of the frame make such a pallet for juice freely fit into it.
In order to make the press for pressing the juice with their own hands as stable, to the lower belt of the frame on both sides, you need to fight three segments of the square pipe (length 15-20 cm). These "paws" will rely relieve the stand from the OSB boards or slab.
The drainage lattice needs to be done only from natural wood (oak, beech). The thickness of the drainage grille must be at least 20 mm.
For sewing bags, you can take different fabrics (burlap from jute, linen fabric, cotton cooling, synthetics). The main thing is that it is strong enough so that it is not broken by the pressure of the jack.
In conclusion, consider photos of the acting sample of a similar press. Without resorting to welding, the master decided to make a frame on bolted connections using a powerful corner and profile pipe.
For the bottom support plate, a piece of laminated countertops from the chipboard was used.
But the material for the drainage lattice wizard chose incorrectly. Instead of natural wood, he used the OSB slab by making feeding in it for the outflow of juice. We do not advise you to repeat this error, because there is a toxic phenol formaldehyde adhesive in the chipsticks.
Drainage grille for the press - only a tree, not chipboard!
In general, the homemade juice press turned out to be simple, reliable and efficient.
But the more complex design of the hydraulic press made by their own hands. Here the master decided to use the screw as a latch of the fruit bookmark, placed in the perforated stainless steel casing. Hydraulic jack he placed under the frame. The reference site is not done stationary, but sliding. The jack moves it up the profile of the frame.
In this press, the screw does not squeeze juice, but only fixes the bookmark
»Apples
Apple trees occasionally gifted amateur gardeners with such a large-scale harvest that excess of fruit has nowhere to give. In addition to jam and compotes, there is another option of fruit processing - juice. But many are not associated with such a type of blanks due to the high labor complexity of the process. Ordinary household juicers simply do not cope with a large volume of raw materials, and buying a professional device for the season is not ready. But there is a great option - quickly and efficiently press juice from apples on the press made with your own hands.
To independently make a standard press no special skills and drawings. Measured, sprinkle a rail, to score a nail or screw the nut, if desired, can each. Not necessarily own the welding machine, any design can be played in a wooden version. With the help of ordinary garden tools .
For the manufacture of a home press from the tools, a tree and metal (or bollard), a welding machine, screwdriver, pliers, a hammer, will be required. As for the materials, the following are mainly the following:
- metal chaserler;
- wooden bars, rails, boards;
- self-tapping screws, bolts and nuts;
- tank or barrel, steel sheet of stainless steel;
- vistak screw and nut, valve, threaded rod or jack - depending on the design selected;
- durable fabric with good drainage properties for bags under apples: Calica, cotton, jute burlap, flax.
Wooden elements are better to perform from oak, birch or beech, because materials from biologically active trees (spruce, pine) can change the taste of juice. With chipboard Drainage grilles do not do in any way: small dust impregnated with phenol-formaldehyde glue will fall into the product.
Types of structures: schemes and drawings
The main thing in the press is a solid foundation and working mechanism.
Principle of operation of the device:
- layer through drainage grilles the prepared raw materials are stacked (crushed apples) in tissue bags;
- using the mechanism the oppression goes from above And crushes juice.
A good press squeezes 65-70% juice, leaving almost dry cakes. Make such your own hands is quite real.
The design of the homemade press differ according to the principle of operation of the main mechanism:
- Screw.
- Based on jackt: Mechanical and hydraulic.
- Combined.
In the main mass of designs, pressure turns on top, but in the combined version, compression goes in two directions: With the help of the screw mechanism from above and hydraulic jack below.
Press for pressing juice consists of the following parts:
- sustainable stanina;
- quantum or cylindrical housinginside which there are bags with lacknovy apples;
- wooden latticeswhich are shifted bags so as not to crawl;
- piston Gneu.t, directly putting pressure on the cake;
- santer for jack;
- working mechanism: Screw with handle, mechanical or hydraulic jack;
- bowl-pallet.
The main body can be:
- single perforated: Juice through the holes will be drained along the walls and through the bottom in the pallet;
- double: on a perforated metal cylinder dresses a solid casing slightly more diameter;
- in the form of a solid metal case with one drain opening from below;
- collected from wooden rails connected by hoops- Barrel. The walls at the same time perform the functions of the drainage lattice.
The housing can not be - just a pyramid from a wooden frame-lattice in a tray with the mouth at the bottom, which is substituted with a container for juice.
This design is simply and quickly mounted. For the bottom plate, you can take a piece of countertops, for example.
Worm Mechanism or Hydraulic Jack: What to choose?
Screw (worm) The press mechanism is implemented as a large screw (threaded axis) with a nut or mechanical jack. The last option is much simpler - you can buy in the store of spare parts or get from the car's trunk, you will not need to search for anything, customize, pull and weld.
Designs based on hydraulic jack is much more productive (Effort from 1T) than mechanical, and require minimum labor costs from a person. Bottle hydraulic jacks make it possible to press the juice quickly and in large volumes. They are comfortable fit into any design.
You can construct a press with a removable mechanism, then you don't have to specifically buy a jack, but you can use duty in the trunk. After all, the harvest of apples is good not every year.
Making a press with your own hands
Press need a steady robust support - bed. The simplest thing is to collect it from wooden bars with screws. For the manufacture of metal beds, a welding machine and a chaserler will be required.
The size of the frame depends on the diameter of the working body or the parameters of the drainage grilles. Therefore, if a cabinet design is planned, you need to prepare a container in advance.
The simplest frame press with a worm mechanism
Welded stable design. The center of the upper channel is cut off the hole under the screw nut (you can use the old vertical or order from Tokarei). Nut is necessary to frame.
Then collecting wooden drainage grillewhich represents two layers of rails stuffed perpendicular to each other. The thickness of the rails is not less than 20 mm. It is also necessary to set a stand from bars. A retainer for the apparatus part of the screw is attached to the top board - any suitable metal part (can be placed on epoxy glue).
Tray is made from stainless steel sheetThe front is strung out the nose-stock. It remains to substitute a saucepan or other container. As a result, the press is obtained.
The bed for the hydraulic press is assembled on the same principle, as for the screw. As a housing, the easiest way to take the ready-made metal or wooden barrel. At the bottom, the hole is cut and equipped with a drain nose.
If the wooden barrel is not quite hermetic - even good. Juice will be merged at once in several directions, as a result, it will still be in the pallet. On this construction from above, it is better to wear a plastic casing with a raratively diameter so that there is no spray.
Wooden case can be made independently:
- Need: somewhat equal to the size of the duffle (can be parquet), two stainless steel strips and anti-corrosion coating screws.
- Boards on top and bottom are screwed by self-drawing Towards at a distance of about 10 mm.
- Stripes with boards bend in the form of a circle, the ends of the stripes are fastened by bolts.
- A plastic bowl can be suitable as a pallet With cut out below with a drainage for juice.
Another important element - focusing for the jack. It is usually done from the tree: you need to bring down the rails and cut out the circle from the received web slightly less than the diameter of the working body. You can, with the help of a grinder, cut a support from the stainless steel sheet.
Drainage pads are made as in the description for the screw pressBut they attached a round form.
As a result, the design should turn around as in the photo.
Preparation of raw materials
The principle of pressed apple juice Simple - the smaller the raw materials are chopped, the more product will be at the output. It is best to use a special chopper (crusher), since finely cut several buckets of apples by hand theoretically possible, but it is actually difficult to implement. The electric center for large volumes is also not an option: roars, howl, heats up, as a result, it can burn. A suitable crusher can also be made independently.
The simplest design of the homemade crusher
From moisture-proof plywood or sheet stainless steel slightly on the cone is mounted deep bunker. Two bars are attached to it for stability from below. A wooden roller is cut into the lower part of the tank (better from the beech) with spiral screws. As a drum, you can use the usual kitchen roller. The axis of rotation of the roller comes out, the drill is inserted into it and the process begins.
Some simply crush apples in a bucket with a building mixer.
The process of pressed juice from apples at home
After the raw materials are prepared, it folded on the plated bags or worst into pieces of fabric on the principle of envelope. Next, convolutions are stacked in the container, a basket or simply on the bottom of the design layer through drainage grilles. It is placed about 3-4 packages. The oppression is lowered from above, juice flows into the pallet. When the pressing process is completed, the mezga is removed, the following batch is loaded.
The remaining cake after high-quality pressure usually gets dry and compressed in "Tablets" (photo 16).
The squeezes are better to recycle into a compost bunch. In such material, worms are very well multiplied by creating a valuable fertilizer for the garden.
The resulting juice can not only drink fresh, but also make blanks for the winter:
- pasteurized Raded juice;
- apple wine several species;
- apple cider.
Apples - very valuable product for health. Purchase and give up the neighbor's pigstream surplus extremely inconsistently and wasteful. By building a pair of simple devices, you can quickly and simply recycle all fruits. And in the winter it will be so nice to get useful and delicious amber drinks from the cellar or refrigerator!
End of summer, the beginning of the autumn is to collect fruits, vegetables, apples, grapes. And if the harvest is large, then the usual electrical juicer will not cope. In this case, the dacha requires a press for pressing juice from fruits. Now there is a mass of proposals for various presses and davels, hydraulic, screw, pneumatic, wooden, but the biggest minus of these goods is a high price. Make a press for juice with your own hands is not difficult, you need small locksmith skills, welder. And the cost of the homemade press for grapes or apples is several times lower than the purchase.
For winemake, such a device will facilitate his work and save the mass of time. The simplest version of the home press-juicer is based on extriving juice from the mezgi fruits or vegetables. Pre-apples are crushed with special crushers, a grape davilka is used, and then juice is pressed from this mass. With such a technology, it comes out pure juice without pulp, ready to be fermented or for pasteurization and further storage.
Simple press for grapes do it yourself
The screw press for grapes consists of: bases - frames, baskets, pressure devices (shaft or jack), pressing piston. Other options for making the device are possible. When choosing a material, it is not necessary to accurately follow the description and drawings of Persian you can make your own.
Tools and materials for the press:
- Welding machine;
- Drill;
- Bulgarian;
- Tank - 50 liters;
- Metal channel 10-12 mm - 150 mm;
- Metal corner 40-50 mm - 3200 mm;
- Oak rails 40x25x400 mm - 50 pcs;
- Fabric - 1 sq.m;
- Jack - 1 pc;
- Crane - 1 pc;
- Leske 2 mm - 3 m.
How to make a press for pressing juice
1.Rama. The base is one of the most important elements of the press, the frame should be very strong design, the entire load on it is located at work. The side parts of the press are made of metal corners with a height of 85 mm. The upper and lower parts of the frame must be made from a 70 cm length of 70 cm, you can additionally enhance the design, welding the jams between the corners and the chaserler. All parts are welded in all places of contact. 
If the design of the screw press is used, then you need to spend the nut for the screw to the upper chaserler. In addition to a metal frame, you can use wooden boards, 5 centimeters thick. The boards are fastened with studs by 10-12 mm and twisted with nuts. Wooden press is easier, but the design does not withstand heavy loads, for a small crop quite suitable option. The finished frame is necessary to sand and paint with special paint for metal. 
2. BAC for press.
In this design, a cooking tank made of stainless steel volume of 50 liters is used. At the bottom of the boiler capacity, a hole is drilled and a stainless steel crane is installed. Instead of a tank, you can use the usual saucepan of suitable size. 
Oak rail grille is inserted into the container. Billets are cut from oak board (you can use a parquet board), the height of them is equal to the height of the pan. Over the edges in the ends of the rails, holes are drilled by 2-3 mm through them the fishing line or stainless wire. By connecting all the planks, it turns out a kind of basket. 
There should be a 2-3 mm clearance between the rails, through which the juice of fruit will be fed. You can do without a pan without a pan, connecting the boards of galvanized steel hoops and installing a basket on the tray, which will be flushed with a pressed liquid. 
As a pallet, a plastic pallet from a large flower pot or stainless kitchen sink can be used. There is a design where the press for grapes is made by framework, it does not have a basket, cakes fit into the tissue between drainage lattices in several layers and is given. 
3.Port. The piston for the press needs to be made from the remaining oak boards, folding their cross on the cross, with the help of a circulation, draw the circle of the desired size and cut out the electric jig. Reiki twist with stainless steel screws or tie copper, stainless wire. If the farm has a log, then you can sprinkle the circle of the required diameter and height. 
4.Silome mechanism.
A jackbook or screw is used as a pressure manner in the press for apples. In the device for pressing the juice there will be quite enough hydraulic automobile jack with a carrying capacity of 3 tons. For more confident work, you can use jacks that create an effort equal to more than 3 tons. The screw for the press is more difficult to find, and the jack is available in every car enthusiast. Under the jack you need to be selected for lining while pressing. 
5. Tanning for filtering. To filter, juice from fruit apples, you need a robust fabric capable of passing moisture. The easiest option to take a kapron bag from sugar. Also for filtering will fit the Capron, Loven, propylene, polyester or use durable hb material, dense flax, not to break under pressure.
So, the manual press for fruits is ready, how to squeeze juice? Basket insert into the tank, inside place the material for filtering. Soft fruits, berries, citrus frozen without prior processing. Apples, carrots or other solid fruits need to be crushed on the crusher or use the mezdu from the juicer, download to the basket, cover the lid.
Install the jack, substitute the receiving capacity, open the crane and slowly put pressure. You do not need to immediately try to squeeze all the juice, you can damage the frame or the fabric is bullied. Make three or four pitching, wait some time, then three or four pitching and so on. From one bucket of apples from the juicer, there are 3-4 liters of pure juice, from crushed mass a little longer.
Processing of the harvest of berries and fruits is one of the most important tasks that you have to solve not only farmers, but also to the owners of household plots. The technical devices that greatly facilitate this process include a press for pressing juice, allowing you to quickly and without a significant physical effort to turn fruits and berries to delicious and rich in vitamins juice. The modern market presents a wide variety of similar devices, but those homemade masters who want to save on their acquisition may well make such a press with their own hands.
Principle of operation and types
All presss for squeezing juice from various berries and fruits can be divided into four main types:
- mechanical devices;
- hydraulic presses;
- electrohydraulic models;
- pneumatic type devices.
The most common due to the low cost and simplicity of its design is the mechanical press of manual type. One of the main elements of its design is a perforated basket, which grinding fruits (mezdu chopped) are laid or fall asleep with berries for pressing juice. Fruits and berries are squeezing in such a device using a piston, the lowering of which (and the creation of the required pressure) is carried out due to the rotation of the handle leading the screw mechanism of the press. Juice formed during the pressure of the piston, through the holes in the basket flows into a special pallet, from where it is then bottled into another container.
For the manufacture of a basket, in which the raw materials are loaded for pressing the juice, a sheet stainless steel or solid wood can be used (for example, beech). In the second case, the design of such a basket is a drainage grille consisting of two equal parts interconnected by metal hoops.
Upgraded and, accordingly, a more efficient version of the manual device is a hydraulic press that can be used to produce juice from apples and berries. Instead of perforated container in the design of such a press, several drainage frames made of solid wood are used. The crushed raw material from which it is necessary to obtain juice is placed in tissue bags and stacked between such a framework, to which there is a significant pressure (1-5 tons), created by a manual hydraulic jack. Using such a pressing mechanism, you can get up to 70% of the juice from the total weight of the treated crop.
Hydropress does not necessarily imply the use of a jack as a mechanism that creates the required pressure. Thus, in one of the designs of such presses, an elastic membrane membrane is used as this mechanism, expanding under the influence of water supplied to it under a pressure of 1.5-2 atm from a conventional water supply network. Expanding, such a press membrane affects fruits and berries laid in the perforated basket, pressing juice from them, which through the holes in the walls of the basket flows into the accumulative pallet.
The pneumatic press for pressing juice is also operated on the principle described above. The difference lies only in the fact that the expansion of the membrane, also present in its design, occurs not under the influence of the water filling, and under the pressure of compressed air supplied from the compressor.
Since certain types of raw materials from which it is necessary to squeeze juice, are loaded into the press in crushed form, be sure to mention devices that help bring it into such a state. The design of the simplest chopper is a steel drum, the walls of which are made in the form of a grater. Such a drum, which turns the raw material loaded into it in a small crumb, is placed in the casing with a loading neck. This simple and efficient mechanism is reduced by the rotation of a special handle. There are also more efficient and productive models of such aggregates running using an electric motor.
If we talk about the performance of mechanical presses for pressing juice, it is quite small and can be in the range of 10-30 l / h. However, such performance is quite enough for devices used for domestic purposes.
In order to increase the percentage of exit juice from prescript fruits and berries, as well as improved its quality, two methods are used:
- the raw materials in the press are loaded in fabric bags acting in the role of filters;
- the extrusion of juice is carried out by drainage lattices made of wood, or with the help of "pancakes" of stainless steel.
The use of drainage lattices or "pancakes" provides a spin of juice not only from the upper and lower, but also from the middle part of the compressible volume. The bags, as mentioned above, act as filters and allow you to immediately clean the expressing juice from the pulp.
In cases where the performance of the manual press for producing juice is not enough, apparatuses with an electric drive are used. The electric drive can be seen at the screw press for pressing the juice and in the screws of the screw type operating on the principle of conventional meat grinder. In the first case, the press drive is a pair of "Electric Motor - Hydraulic Jack".
In screw presses, structurally reminiscent of a conventional meat grinder, the drive electric motor is directly connected to the working body - the screw. Such a press for pressing grapes is also used, it is also an excellent press for fruits, berries and spinning of the juice from tomatoes. It works according to the following principle: loaded raw materials through auger is crushed and pushed through a sieve having a conical shape. This form of Sita allows not only to lead a high-quality spin of juice, but also to beat the seeds. It should be borne in mind that grape or any other juice obtained at the exit of such a press is characterized by plenty of pulp.
Prices for serial models of presses for pressing juice depend on several factors:
- the volume of the boot basket;
- type of device;
- manufacturing material;
- press performance on juice obtained per unit of time.
The cheapest, naturally, will cost a home press with a screw principle. The cost of the hydraulic juicer is slightly higher. Next, in the price category there is a press juicer for processing apples and other raw materials, working using compressed air. The most expensive on the modern market presented are hydraulic davils of membrane type.
Press for pressing juice with your own hands
It is possible to make a press for juice with your own hands, the main thing is to find the schemes of work and drawings of such homemakes, which will not be much difficulty. Many of those home masters who already have experience in making such equipment, gladly share photos of their devices and even videos showing the process of their manufacture and the principle of operation in all details.
Most often, with their own hands, they strive to make screw-type presses. Meanwhile, it should be borne in mind that a powerful screw does not work for such a device without attracting a qualified turner. It can be made without third-party specialists if we replace the screw mechanism with a regular jack (mechanical or hydraulic), which is in the arsenal of each motorist.
The main bearing element of the press for pressing the juice made with their own hands is the frame. Her strength should be paid special attention. For the manufacture of such a frame in which a jack will be dried and create the required pressure, you can use a square metal pipe with a cross section of 40x40 and a wall thickness of at least 3 mm. Having calculated the height of the frame of its homemade press, the total thickness of the drainage lattices, lining and bags with raw materials, as well as the height of the jack, should be taken into account. The width of the frame can be chosen arbitrarily - the main thing is that the accumulative tray for collecting the pressed juice was placed in the created opening.
Having created the design of the press for apples or for grapes with their own hands, its special attention should be paid to its stability. To effectively solve such a task to the bottom of the frame, you can breed three segments of the square pipe, which will perform the function of the legs and ensure the stability of the aggregate. On the upper part of the legs, the stand is stacked from the board or wood slab, on which the pallet will be located.
Drainage grilles, complete with which your apple, grape or any other press will work, should be made only from solid wood (oak or beech). Mobile thickness, of which such lattices will be manufactured, should be at least 20 mm.
The press basket is made of oak planks (you can buy parquet skulls), pulled by corners with small gaps and fixed with stainless self-drawers.
The bags in which apple mezga will be placed or other raw materials for pressing the juice can be made from various tissues (the main thing is that such a fabric is distinguished by high strength and bags that are sewn from it, not broken under the influence of high pressure generated by the jack). As such tissues, in particular, it is possible to use conventional burlap, jute, cotton and linen fabrics, sitheriums and synthetic materials.
Today we will talk about how to independently make a press for squeezing juice from fruits, berries and vegetables or homemade juicer with your own hands. We will also consider technology and drawings of self-made presses and juicers with visual illustrations.
There are various presses for pressing juice. The main homemade structures are screw or using a jack. A good option when using a pneumocrat or rubber chamber and compressor. Possible options for using centrifuges, for example, old washer. Press or juicers should not crush seeds and ridges located in the mezg.
Depending on the alleged volumes of raw materials processing on juice or wine, select your favorite design of the device pressing the juice. The cooking process in any case is broken into two stages: 1. Preparation of mezgi (grinding raw materials); 2. Actually, the spin itself - getting juice.
Screw Constructions Press For Pressing Juice
Usually the press consists of a pressure mechanism, baskets, bases and pressing board. The basket serves as a receiver for mezgi and is installed on the basis of the press. There is also a tray for swelling juice. The bottom and side walls of the basket are lined with a whole piece of burlap without lumen. Fabric ends should hang over the edges of the basket. Then the MEZU is loaded into the basket and cover burlap ends. From above put a wooden circle on which the press is lowered.
We present an example of another homemade press for juice. The press consists of two racks with a diameter of 22 mm. From above to pipes, a p-shaped profile bent from 3-millimeter steel has been welded. The height of the profile is chosen with such a calculation so that the nut of the screw pressed into the steel sleeve is located inside freely. From below to each rack welded clamp. With the help of these two clamps, the press is attached to the windowsill. To the screw, on the one hand they welded a head with a hole for the handle, on the other - the stop is attached, which compresses the raw material.
For the collection of pressed juice, a failed 3- 4 liter enameled pan is suitable (Fig. A). It is necessary to drill a hole in the bottom and consolidate the fitting in it with a hose to collect juice.
The basket is made of a sheet stainless steel with a thickness of 2 mm, on top and bottom to be welded with stainless wire bands with a diameter of 4 mm. Rings allow you to "evenly" accommodate a basket inside the pan. Pan walls are perforated with a drill with a diameter of 3 mm (randomly).
Gaskets that share the portions of raw materials loaded to the basket consist of two 2-millimeter stainless steel discs connected using spot welding. In the disks, the holes are drilled with a diameter of 3 mm, the holes are provided between the disks with a thickness of 4 mm (gaskets also from stainless steel). In general, all parts of the screw press are made of stainless steel, quite suitable tank from the old washing machine.
Work on the pressing of the juice is as follows. The press body is fixed using clamps on the windowsill in the kitchen (you can install the press and on the table). The screw is unscrewed up to the stop. The basket is placed in the saucepan, and on the bottom of the latter put the gasket and have a napkin of durable fabric on it. Next on the napkin placed crushed raw materials (apples, fruits, herbs, berries) in the amount of 0.5 ... 1 kg.
The napkin is the envelope, cover the portion with a drainage gasket, which has another napkin. Such packages should be 3 pieces, while the upper package can rise above the pots of 4 ... 6 cm. Putting on the top package the gasket is installed under the press screw. Yes, I completely forgot to say about the spacer (a circle of wood), which is put under the cart (otherwise the pan can be disretened when screwing the screw).
Creasing the pressure of the screw must be twisted slowly and smoothly, watching juice output. Having finished squeezing juice, the screw is unscrewed up, the pan is transferred to the table, the cake from the napkins are removed. Depending on the type and quality of raw materials for one cycle using a homemade screw press for pressing the juice, it is possible to press 1.2 ... 1.8 l of juice, and for 1 hour to 12 ... 15 liters.
Wedge press for pressed fruit juice
It is necessary to arrange wooden goats on four legs in a height of 1 m. Upstairs these legs are connected by a thick (9-10 cm) of the board A, the width of which is 30 cm, and the length of about 1 m. In the board we do a longitudinal slot R width 10-12 cm and long 40 cm. In this slot insert two boards in (thickness 9-10 cm), dried on top and bottom. At the bottom of both boards we associate an iron bracket B or, more easier, a fat rope.
In order for the boards to keep and not falling into a slot, we skip iron pivots or wooden sleeves in. Then, from solid wood, we produce several wedges of different thicknesses - and the press is ready. It works like this: spreading the boards b, insert the bag from a strong canvas, filled with mezg. Then, clogging into a slot of wedges, we squeeze the boards. Thus, the mezu strongly sprinkle. Juice flows down into the substituted rudder or pot.
Production of simple juicer on the principle of the lever
We take two birch boards, the length of the main board is 1 m, the width is 300 mm, the thickness is 100 mm. The second board serving the lever has a length of 1.5 m, width of 170 mm and a thickness of 20 mm. In the main board, we spend the grooves for the flow of juice (Fig. And a depth of 10-15 mm and a length of 300 mm. This board is strengthened obliquely either on separate racks, or on a special table. To it, with the help of a hinge and boards, we attach the second board-lever. Received lever press. We put 4-5 apples in the opening of 4-5 or any other fruits, pressing the lever, and the juice flows through the grooves into the substituted container.
Nowadays, more and more self-taught wizard are asked: "How to make a press for grapes with your own hands?" Grow grapes in its garden plot is easier-simple, the berry is unpretentious in care, grows quickly. Having built the press for him, it would be possible to harvest the juice for the winter or cook your homemade wine.
The press with a liter basket is twenty, it will be quite comfortable in order to harrow juice from overwhelmed grapes for wine.
Option first.
What is the press?
We will make a screw-type press and will it consist of:
Screw. Well, if it is a rectangular shape, powerful and having a thread.
Basket. Its, by the way, can be made of parquet boards. Which then you need to pull stainless wrap.
.
Tip:
And if suddenly on your, local, market suddenly will not be strips of stainless metal with the thickness you need, in this case, capture the corners on the way home. After all, they can also be coppering the boards.
The design of our press will, so to speak, self-sufficient. That is, the finished press will be without supports, on the legs. The nut will be mounted on top, and the screw rod will be screwed down. In the frame itself there will be a basket, the wort will be loaded with the ezg or grape berries
We make a basket.
We buy a couple of dozens of parquet boards: length - 320 cm, width - 50 cm and 1.5 cm thick. We buy a metal strip, 1 mm thick. Many acquire metal corners from stainless steel. In this case, they will need a pair of two meters.
At the boards, we remove the grooves with the cutter. Well, this operation can even be called useless if you have a dishwasher. Since in this case, with its brush, everything is fine with. But if there are no cars so that the grooves are not contaminated, it is better to cut them.
Now you will need stainless self-tapping screws. They are attached to the corners, the gap is not more than 12 mm. After that, with the help of a grinder cut the corner between the boards. Edges bend. They make holes for bolts.
It will be necessary to the liner, its diameter corresponds to the basket diameter. The piston is put on the ezgu grapes.
The basket height is 32 cm. The diameter inside is 29 cm. Calculated volume - 21 liters smoothly.
So, continue the topic how to make a press for grapes.
Now you need to buy:
Corners 25 mm;
Rolled, with a diameter of 6.2 mm;
Several bolts M6;
Nuts to bolts.
We collect the frame of the press.
Note that under the screw, on top of the circle, it is necessary (!!!) to put the boards.
The screw can be ordered from tokar, and you can also construct yourself if there are appropriate skills.
Screw parameters: Diameter - 30 mm, Step - 3 mm, Nut, disk with mounting holes, welded.
More details:
A small piece of plywood, as a support for the press;
Plastic bowl. They make a hole in it, put the tube into the hole.
Of course, it is possible to do everything with the help of a welding machine, but if it does not have any, and if there is no experience with this device, then the question immediately arises how to make a press for grapes without welding. This is where the thought of thought to make a press on bolts.
You can safely cook the details in the inventory, right in my apartment on the balcony.
Lack of design.
Option second.
Step one.
In order to make the juice from grapes right at home, for cooking jelly, juice, wine and other things, you will need a press. How to make a press for grapes, we will now tell.
Need a roller crusher. It can also be done by itself, for example, from the loading bucket. In this crusher and the berry will be covered. It is better to build it from a wooden frame. Add a pair of rollers to the frame, as of the tree, the handle for rotation. All elements with clipim bearings.
Step second.
We prepare all the details. We make a frame from bars: length - 70 cm, section - 4 by 10 cm. The width of the frame - look at the length of the rollers, since the width is completely dependent on the length of your rollers. The optimal can be called the size of 20 cm. Construction design, make sure that the distance between the brooms is the same.
Step Three.
For the press, the rolls need to be made corrugated, 3 cm deep. The riflation can be made screw, in this case, the shift is directed to the side for a couple, see further, the bearings are secure rolls to the frame. They will spin on different axes and at different speeds.
Step fourth.
With the same diameter of the wool, you need to make the roller diameter different. What does it give? The speed of movement in a circle will be different. For such a press, wooden buckets are needed, where the berries of grapes will be loaded. Form choose in the form of a pyramid.
Pitch fifth.
The buckets put on the rake frame. Reiki should be transverse. The distance between the bucket and roller is minimal, better, no more centimeter. Ready. It's time to secure the handle to rotate. With its help, the variety of raw materials and juice pressure will be carried out.
Step six.
At the bottom of the design we put a vessel for the collection of juice.
Berries ship in the bucket, from there they raw on the rolls. Rotating the handle, the berries are plagued and pressed until the puree works.
Step seventh.
Berries take off the bunch. Pretty rinse under the jet of water. And only then upload in the press. And when the juice is ready, we rinse the press with water and dried with a soft towel or a napkin. If it is properly not to care for him, the wood will simply begin to rot.
