ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for extracting juice from produce such as fruits and vegetables. The extractor has a base which includes a housing and a motor with a vertically aligned drive shaft. A blade basket detachably mounted on and driven by the output shaft separates produce into pulp and juice, and a juice bowl surrounding the blade basket collects the juice. The juice bowl is mounted on the base of the apparatus such that rotation of the bowl in a first direction relative to the base locks the bowl to the base. Rotation of the juice bowl in the opposite direction out of the locked position lifts the bowl away from the base and uncouples the blade basket from the drive shaft. An interlock system keeps the motor from being turned on until the juice bowl is locked to the base and a cover is locked onto the juice bowl. Performance is enhanced by, inter alia: anti-splashing provisions and vibration absorbing components which isolate the motor and the motor driven components of the apparatus.
