JUICE EXTRACTOR WITH ENHANCED QUALITY AND YIELD PERFORMANCE AND METHODS OF MAKING SAME.

摘要

A juice extractor includes relatively moveable first (22) and second (24) cups for compressing a fruit therebetween during juice extraction. A first cutter (28) is associated with the first cup (22) and includes a first cutter base (30) having at least one base opening (23ABC) therein. The first cutter (28) may also include a first cutting blade (34) that extends outwardly from the base to define an interior passageway (36) in communication with the at least one base opening (32ABC) so that debris may be released therethrough. A second cutter (54) associated with the second cup (24) may have a second cutting blade (56) that is sized to be received within the interior passageway (36) of the first cutter (28). A flange (56) may extend outwardly from the second cutting blade (36) and mount the second cutter (54) in a bore of the second cup (24) so that the flange (56) is at a level flush with or above adjacent portions of a ring base (58) of the second cup (24).
