a trolley 61 controlled by a line cable 62 and 63 driven by motor 64 the carriages 65 tilt on a pivot 66 a system of fixed or mobile buffers provoke the tilting of the trays the tobbogan 15 is formed of a series of bars which direct the individual fruits 17 fig2 and 4 towards the cutting and squeezing unit a stationary flat blade 18 and an arcuate pusher 19 are mounted on a vertical slide 20 which is moved by connecting rods 21 and 22 that are connected at their top end by a transverse plate 23 and are connected by their lower ends to a crank shaft 24 as shown in fig5 the crank shaft rotates on a horizontal crank 25 mounted in a bearing 26 and by a motor of the machine the up and down movement of the slide 20 is transmitted in a compressive action of the pusher 19 to press an orange against the blade 18 to cut the orange into two halves that are then guided by lateral baffles 28 and 29 to the rotary squeezing caps 30 and 31 to receive and present the cut half oranges to the squeezing caps 30 and 31 the machine includes several pans 32 one on each side of the machine only one of which is shown in fig4 the pans have a turning movement on pivots fixed to the helicoidal gears 33 and 34 and receive the cut pieces of fruit and present it to the corresponding squeezing cap during the turning movement of the gears 33.
