In a press for squeezing for example garlic (15), the novelty is that the plunger (4) is divided into two mutually displaceable parts, namely a press plate (11), facing the press housing (1), and an ejector plate (7), that is attached behind the press plate (11) and has ejector fingers (6) projecting through the corresponding holes (12) in the press plate (11) while a stack of ring-shaped cup springs (14), limited by stops (13) seeks to move the two parts away from each other. The ejector plate (7) is connected to a threaded spindle (8), by which the press force is applied, and during the squeezing of a garlic clove (15), the ring-shaped springs (14) hold the press plate (11) at a maximum distance away from the ejector plate (7). At the end of the squeezing operation, however, when the press plate (11) contacts the bottom (2) of the press housing (1), the ring-shaped springs (14) are compressed, and the fingers (6) of the ejector plate (7) enter the holes (3) in the bottom (2) and force the remaining garlic paste out through the holes. |
