T. C. RUSH BOTTLE CAP REMOVER .Filed Oct. l1. 1922.
INI/ENTOR Patene i i i I 'it titane TURNER C. RUSH, OF LEXINGTON, KENTUCKY, ASSIGNOR TO FREDRIC. GRANT ERD,
` OIF LEXINGTON, KENTUCKY.
BOTTLE-CAP REMOVER.
Application filed October 11, 1922. Serial No. 593,877.
T 0 all whom t may concern Be it known that I, TURNER C. RUSH, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Lexin ton, in the county of Fayette and State of ventucly, have invented a new and Improved Bottle-Cap Remover, of which the following is a full7 clear, and eXact description. f
This invention relates to improvements in devices for removing bottle closures, and has particular reference to a device of this chanv acter which may be permanently attached to a support.
An object of the invention is to provide a bottle cap remover of extremely simple and effective construction, which may be readily attached to a support and positioned in such manner that, when not in use, will occupy a minimum space and form no outwardly eX- tending project-ions beyond the base of the device. l
The above and other objects will appear more clearly from the following detail description, when taken in connection with the accompanying drawing, which illustrates a preferred embodiment of the inventive idea.
In the drawing- Figure 1 is a vertical longitudinal section through the device, showing the same in operative position;
Figure 2 is a transverse section through the device in its inoperative position;
Figure 3 is al front elevation of the device in its inoperative position; and
Figure t is a perspective view of the closure removing member employed in connection with the invention.
Referring more particularly to the drawing, the numeral 5 indicates a base plate,
preventing slipping of the bottle cap 10v when the same is being removed from the bottle.
Cooperating with the base plate 5 is a closure removing member 11 formed of a fiat plate of any suitable material and having one end bent upon itself to provide a cap engaging fiange 12. rlhe other end of i the member 11 is provided with oppo'sitely disposed projections or lugs 13, vwhich form pivotsv for the member -1l and which limit the pivotal movement of said member in one' direction with respect to the plate 5.
'Ihe member 11 is mounted for logitudinal movement with respect to the plate 5 and when in its inoperative position, yas shown in Figures 2 and 3, said gmember is recessed'l within the compartment 9 with the free edge of the iiange 12 engaging the bottom edge of an opening 14 formed in the upper end of the offset portion 8 of the plate 5, said portion 8 being reduced or cut away, as indicated at 15, to` form said opening. The widthl of the opening 14 is substantially the same as that of the member 11 so that the side edges forming said opening provide a guide for said member when the same is moved longitudinally with respect to the base plate.
The offset portion 8 is provided at a point contiguous to the lower edge formingy the opening 14 with a notched portion 16, which exposes a portion of the free edge lof the flange 12 so that a finger may be readily engaged with this flange when it is desired to move the member 11 to its operative position. moved longitudinally and upwardly with respect to the base plate until the projections 13 engage the upper end of the offset por` tion 8 adjacent the opening 14. Vhen inv this position the member 114 may be swung In so doing, said member is first outwardly and downwardly about the projections 13 as pivots until the portion of the memberv 11 adjacentsaid projections engages the lower edge of the opening 14, as shown in Figure 1. The bottle cap 10 is then engaged with the flange 12 and offset portion 8, as shown in said figure, and by moving the bottle to the dotted line position it will be obvious that the cap may readily and quickly be removed from the bottle.
What isl claimed is:
1. In a bottle cap removing device, an element having means to secure it to a wall or other support, and a cap removing ele--` ment slidably and pivotally engaged with,
the first named element and movable to a closed inoperative .position approximately moving position at an parallel With the plane of the first named element and to a cap removing position projecting at an angle to said plane.
2. In a bottle cap removing device,f an
element lia-ving means to secure it to a Wall or :other support, and a 'cap removing element formed at one end With an inturned flange to engage a'cap, said cap` removing element being slidably mounted relative to the lirst named element and having a pivotal engagement at its opposite end With said rst named element When moving to operative and inoperative positions.
3. In afbottle cap removing device, an
plate, yand a cap removing element having a flange at one end engageable With said plate to support said element in its inoperative position and engageable with a cap when in its operative position.
5. In a bottle cap removing device, a base plate, and a cap removing element having a flange at one end engageable with said plate to support said element in its inoperative position and engageable With a cap` when in its operative position, said element having longitudinal and pivotal movements with respect to said its toperative position.
6. In a bottle cap remover, a' base plate having an oiiset portion forming la recess, said on'set portion being provided With an opening, a cap removing member mounted Within said recess and provided with a iiange at one end engageable With "an edgeof said offset portion forming said opening to support said member in position Within said recess, said member havinglongitudinal movement in, said recess and a pivotal movement with respect to said plate when adjusted to its operative position.
