Citrus juicer attachment for food processor

摘要

An improved food processor including a citrus fruit juice extraction unit, and an attachment for a food processor for the extraction of juice from citrus fruit, are disclosed. The attachment consists of an annular trough-like member fitting within the cylindrical food processing container amounted on the base of the food processor. The annular trough- like member has a circumferential flange which rests on the upper edge of the container and supports the trough-like member therein. The trough- like member has apertures in the bottom thereof to permit the passage of citrus fruit juice while restraining passage of pulp and pips associated with the juice. The trough-like member includes means such as a cam which are arranged to cooperate with an electric switch for the food processor motor so that the food processor motor cannot be actuated without the trough-like member being in predetermined rotational relationship with the food processor base and food processing container located thereon.
