PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve squeezing efficiency and squeezing quality by easy and precise adjustment for obtaining optimum squeezing conditions according to kinds and sizes of citrous fruits, in particular, in a squeezing utensil of the citrous fruits like Yuzu, citrus, Citrus sphaerocarpa, Buntan, lemons and limes of which juice and peel are mainly used.SOLUTION: In the squeezing device 1 for the citrus fruits wherein the citrus fruits passing between squeezing belts 10a, 10b are compressed and squeezed by squeezing rollers 11, mounting frames 15a, 15b are connected to upper rods 12a, 12b and lower rods 13a, 13b by the intermediary of a plurality of fixed shafts 14. The squeezing rollers 11 are rotatably fitted to the fixed shafts 14 of the mounting frames 15a, 15b. The respective upper rods 12a, 12b and lower rods 13a, 13b of the pair of mounting frames 15a, 15b that face each other are mutually connected at a plurality of positions by adjusting shafts 22 which are rotatable at their current positions, so that the pair of mounting frames 15a, 15b may be arranged in an approachable/separable manner.COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT【課題】柚子,スダチ,カボス,文旦,レモン,ライム等の主として果汁や果皮を利用する柑橘類果実の搾汁装置に関し、特には柑橘類果実の種類やサイズに応じて最適の搾汁状態を簡便、かつ、正確に調節可能とすることによって、搾汁効率と搾汁品質を向上させる。【解決手段】搾汁ベルト10a,10b間を通過する柑橘類果実を搾汁ローラ11によって圧搾して搾汁する柑橘類果実の搾汁装置1において、上杆12a,12bと下杆13a,13bに複数の固定軸14を介して連結した取付フレーム15a,15bを形成し、該取付フレーム15a,15bの固定軸14に搾汁ローラ11を回転可能に装着し、相互に対面する一対の取付フレーム15a,15bの上杆12a,12bの間及び下杆13a,13bの間を、現位置で回動可能な調整軸22を介して複数箇所で相互に連結することにより、一対の取付フレーム15a,15bを近接離反可能に配置した。【選択図】図4
