Cold Press Juicer Retaining Clip (Salton & others likely)

thingiverse

The clips on cold press juicers seem to be a weak point, in fact I have seen many break on several juicers. The model I am referring to is the Salton Vita Pro, however I believe it's a clone of other models which may even use the exact same clips! Here is the one I fixed here - https://www.amazon.ca/Salton-Vita-Speed-Juicer-White/dp/B00CRERCB2 There is a 'Rakuten' juicer here that might be the same clip. - https://www.rakuten.com/shop/bestchoiceproducts/product/SKY4890/ If you see a tapered container with an orange plastic wiper mechanism in it, it could be the same design. Salton sent me some free replacement clips when I called them, but if the material is the same, they won't last long. I made this in PLA, 100% infill, and screwed them in. (3 are used.) They make the container feel much more securely held, maybe due to a slightly beefier design on my replacement that may add some friction grip. The main thing is that they are holding solid, and I might even be inclined to say that they are BETTER! Maybe this will help someone! EDIT: 6 Months on and zero signs of failure. I think I have lost the replacements from the factory anyhow.
