ABSTRACT:
In a mechanism for releasably securing a longitudinal and flexible drainage element to a press-plate of a press which has a press-space for squeezing juice from fruits, and wherein the press-plate defines a passage, a securing device which includes a collar is provided which is received in the passage, and at least partially surrounds the drainage element near an end thereof. A securing sleeve is connected to the collar, and is formed with a shoulder, which abuts the press-plate on a side thereof facing the press-space. The drainage element is releasably secured by the securing device to the press-plate. The securing device includes at least one flange formed on the collar, which extends radially outwardly only along a portion of its circumference beyond an annular border of the passage, and is normally rotatable within the passage; the press-plate defines at least one recess which communicates with the passage and matches the flange, so that the securing device may be passed in a first angular position thereof through the passage and the recess, when the flange is aligned with the recess, but when it is rotated thereafter by a predetermined angle to a second angular position, it is restrained from slipping out from the passage in one direction by the flange abutting the press-plate.
