Damn, the Juicero looks pretty good inside. Look at those fu

I have worked with transmissions and this looks like a transmission to me. Hell it seems to even have a drum shaped to accept clutches and a bigger drum on top.

>>60518953
All that just to squeeze DRM'd juice out of bags.

it effectively has a gearbox, to multiply the torque of the motor going to the screw.

I wonder if this was the best solution or an overly complicated one to impress investors.

If I had to design it I think I would have based it on pic related.

I would have used simple rollers, like a tube squeezer

>>60519456
I don't think that would work very effectively in this case as the bags are filled with solid material that needs the juice squeezed out of it, rollers would either force the material out of the hole in the bottom or clog it up and result in a messy explosion.

>>60519407
It could just just a lever or some sort. But the point was also to make it internet connected

>>60519407
I think it's the best solution for what they tried to achieve. Which is perfect equal pressure to get uniformly squeezed juice in you own home.
I don't think it's worthwhile to try and achieve that though.

Watching AvE nerd out over the inside of the Juicero was a highlight of my day.

i just used one of these growing up
put fruit in, pull the handle down, and out comes juice

They use complaints about cleanup as a reason for these new high tech juicers but something like that is piss easy to clean.

Just take it outside and spray it with the hose. A minute and you're done.

>>60520578
If you have enough money to blow on a fancy juicer you probably can't be bothered to do shit like that.

>>60520116
but where's the smartphone app?

Is there a reason he acts like a bumbling fuck wit who I wouldnt trust operating a shopping cart, let alone a car or machinery.

>>60520826
Because that is what he is.

>>60520839
Oh okay, good I'll stop watching then.

>>60520847
Your loss.

>>60520913
It really REALLY isn't.

If I were in a room with that man i'd have beaten him to death the moment he pulled out the chainsaw to open the box.

This is the most over-engineered fucking thing.

He agreed to give full refunds to anyone who felt ripped off by the machine. He's more like those rich Jewish California hippies .

Then go, you're not welcome here.

oh my goodness, he allows refunds?! he must be one of the good ones!

keep your dick in a vice

>>60520919
you can barely beat your own dick, much less a grown man, faggot.

Fuck the haters I think this machine is doink.

Juicing is counterproductive, at least for anything edible enough to be eaten whole. If you want to drink your food, put the whole thing in a high speed blender, a real one like a Vitamix, Blendtec, or one of those clones with a chinese-built motor. And use hearing protection.

There's a few caveats for liquid food:

It really is and that's what makes it so wonderful from an engineers point of view.

an industrial grade whoopie cushion?

>>60526509
No, engineers would look at it and go "What the fuck? Why is it overbuilt to shit? What a fucking waste of material. The guys who made that are retards."

>>60526634
No but you see it is the price point.

If a design engineer had been told to make a juicer they could sell for $400 then the juicero would never have come out.

They were given a lot of free rein to design this thing and they spared no expense.
