Abstract
A hand operated press 10 for foodstuff includes a base plate assembly 20 with a moving plate assembly 40 hingedly mounted at a predetermined points of their peripheries. An actuating arm 60 is hingedly mounted to the periphery of the base plate assembly 20 at a point opposite to where moving plate assembly 40 is hingedly mounted. A concave portion 70 in the actuating arm with a concavity facing the distal end of the moving plate comes in cammingly contact avoiding a perpendicular angle of attack. A protuberance 48 extending from the distal end 47 of the moving plate assembly 40 further ensures the cammingly contact while preventing actuating arm assembly 60 to totally collapse against the base plate assembly. A curved portion adjacent to the concave portion is prevents a user's fingers from coining in contact with the base plate assembly.
