(57) Equipment for pressing inchoerent humid material especially adapted to be used in
agricolture to press squashed grapes, olive husks and the like, comprising: a closed
compartment (20), that can be opened and has stationary walls (21, 24, 22), at least
one of which (22) is provided with closely spaced openings (23); a bag (30), made
from a resistant, resilient, flexible and waterproof material received within the
compartment (20); and a source of a fluid under a certain pressure (lD, 45), outside
the compartment (20) and adapted to be connected to the bag (30) inside the compartment
(20), so that the bag (30) can be inflated by the fluid supplied by the source; in
operation: once filled in the compartment (20) with the humid material (SU) to be
pressed, with the bag (30) in the deflated condition, and closed the compartment (20),
the bag (30) is inflated through the fluid under pressure, so that the increase of
volume of the bag (30) reduces the space inside the compartment available for the
humid material (SU), that is thus compressed between the bag (30) and the compartment
walls (21, 22, 24).
