ABSTRACT:
A press assembly (10) for squeezing liquid from layers of liquid containing materials. The press assembly utilizes a plurality of open top filter bag assemblies (102), each filter bag assembly being disposed between adjacent press racks (86), the press racks being mounted on parallel horizontally extending rods (52) for sliding movement thereon, the rods in turn being supported between spaced apart platens (42, 54). When the press racks are moved towards one another to squeeze juice from the liquid containing material which is disposed within the filter bag assemblies, the juice will flow into a collector (176) mounted below the press racks. The press assembly is capable of inverting the press racks and filter bag assemblies after the press racks have been moved away from each other, the residue from within the filter bags being discharged onto a conveyer (220) mounted below the collector which has been moved from its operative position below the press racks to an inoperative position to the sides of the press racks.
