Abstract

An apparatus for producing juice from a layer of fruit mash including circulating screening belts of a screening belt press, which are guided around drums or rollers of at least one pressing zone jointly forming a meander-like pressing path. The screening belts are guided in a high-pressure pressing zone between at least one pair of stationary pressing rollers and around a pressure roller which is radially movable relative to the pressing rollers. In the pressing position the pressure roller forms a line pressure gap with each of the flanking pressing rollers which acts on the cross-section of the layer of fruit mash.
