To date, several methods are knownmanufacture and cultivation of grapes both in domestic and industrial conditions. However, what remains unchanged is the technology of squeezing fresh juice from berries. In it, regardless of the place and type of production, a special press for grapes is used. Of course, in industry its dimensions and productivity are much more homemade, but it is simply not advisable to purchase such a device for domestic purposes, because there are enough devices for yourself, for 10 and even 50 liters of wine, made with your own hands. But in fact, everyone can make a press for a grape, while at the same time spending a minimum of money, time and effort for work.
As you know, this device can extractfrom fruit all useful substances, vitamins and mineral salts. Therefore, for qualitative grinding of berries, it is necessary to install a roller crusher. You can make it with help of improvised tools. All you need to make is a wooden frame, a loading bucket and 2 swaths fixed in the bearings on the frame. And, of course, do not forget to make a handle to rotate. Basically the main material here is wood, so we will not use any welding machines or other complex devices.
In order to make a frame, you needto prepare several wooden bars in length approximately 60-70 centimeters with section 10х4 see In this case the width of the finished device will be envy of the sizes of the rollers. The optimal size is about 15-20 centimeters on average. In this case, the distance between the transverse bars should be equal to the sum of the length of the rolls. When calculating this distance, add another 10 cm to the obtained value. So you get the most optimal and practical in size design.
As for these instruments, they need to beto make corrugated. The depth of each reef should be about 2-3 centimeters. Finished products must be directed to the axes of the rolls helically, making a small shift within 2 centimeters for every 10 cm of the roll. The received mechanism should be fixed on the main frame, that is to the home press for grapes, and to provide movement by means of bearings. Remember that the rolls will rotate on the axis at different speeds, so the gears must be applied with different diameters. The gear ratio is 1: 2. If the size of the gears is the same, you will have to do this job with the rolls, reducing their size for this gear ratio. Only then your homemade grape press will be able to provide a different rotation speed for berries.
Further it is necessary to fix a woodena bucket of a pyramidal shape and a handle. The latter must be attached to one side of the mechanism. Doing a press for the grapes with your own hands, do not forget to install in the lower part of the vessel to receive the pressed raw materials. The clearance between the rollers is made manageable to ensure a normal compression of the fruit, depending on their size. Everything, at this stage, the press for the grapes has been successfully made by oneself!
