oonx-nxrnao'ron AND CAP-REMOVER TOOL. Application m February .4, 1928. Serial No. 251,919.
The object of this invention is to provide by pulling on the ring, the cork will be exa simple tool which will be efficient in either tracted. The ring serves as a finger-ring in removing a metal cap from a bottle or exextracting a cork, but, if the cork be so tracting a cork from a bottle, as more fully tight in the bottle that the strain is too great 5 hereinafter set forth. for onefinger, then a piece of fabric, such 60 In the drawingas a hankerchiet, or a tool or bar may be in Fig. l is a perspective view of the tool serted in the ring. The gravitating loop 9 complete, of course serves to keep the fingers from Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional view showing springing apart after the cork is extracted 10 the device in use as a cork-extractor. and thus holds the cork in place between the 65 In forming my device, I take a piece of fingers. With a particularly stubborn cork, steel wire and bend it about midway its increased clamping action by the fingers on lengthto form a ring 5 open at one side and the body of the cork may be obtained by forcprovided at its closed side with a. peened lip ing the loop 9 downwardly and over the out 6 which forms a part of the-cap-remover, wardlyspread shoulders on the fingers, as '70 The two end-portions of the wire are extendis obvious. It has been found in practice that cd outwardly away from the ring to form it will help to loosen the cork and thus make cork-extracting fingers 7, each of which is it easier to extract it to slightly twist thering. sharpened toward its point and is provided .atthe time of pulling. When the cork is with a serrated or toothed inner face. These pulled, it' will remain clamped between the fingers 7 tend to spring apart. The fingers fingers, and, in order to release the cork for are bent slightly outwardly, away from the reinsertion in the bottle, it is only necessary ring 5, to form a neck portion 8, and on the to loosen the loop 9 to thereby let the fingers neck portion a closed wire loop 9 is arranged spring apart. It has been found in practice to loosely slide, being confined to the neck that with my device I can pullcorks'ifrom so by the bendin the fingers 7 on the one hand bottles without spoiling them. It is desirand the ring on the other hand. The two able that one of the tines or fingers, as shown, sharpened fingers 7' are housed in the curled should be made longer than the other tine or edges 10 of a plate 11. The curled edges 10 finger, as this facilitates insertion into the form tubes into which the fin ers 7 are cork are arator to )ullin the same. It is ,r
pushed endwisely. The far ends of the tubes also desirable that the rounded shoulders be.- p 10 are closed and, for strengthening purposes, tween the narrow portion of the neck 8 and the outer end of the plate 11 is provided with the tines 7 shall be provided with notches 7 a bead 13. This housing plate 11 together so that, when the loose loop 9 is forced down with its tubes 10 not only forms a protector over said shoulders in the extracting of a 590 for the sharpened points of the fingers and cork, said loose loop will snap into said the serrations on the fingers, but also serves to notches and thus be held in place during the prevent the fingers springing 'so far apart as extracting of the cork and afterward until to render the tool inconvenient to handle. the loop is manually snapped out of the 40 The manner of using the device for re1nov-' notches. V a
ing a bottle-cap is obvious; the ring is placed What I claim as new is: on top of the cap and the peened lip 6 is en-- A combination tool for the purposesset gaged under the edge of the cap in the usual forth embodying .a spring steel wire bent to way; the housing-plate 11 and the fingers 7 form an open ring about midway its length 5 form a handle when the device is thus used the two end-portions extending away from 100 as a cap-remover. When a cork is to be exthe ring to form fingers and being sharpened tracted, the housing-plate is removed, 1. e., and provided with teeth along their inner slipped ofi the ends of the fingers 7 then edges, and a removable shield or housing fit the fingers .7 are sprung close enough toted onto said fingers, said housing embodygether to be jammed down between the cork ing a plate and a tube for each of said fin- 105 and the bottle-neck, as shown in Fig. 2'; then. gers. 4 the loop 9 is'pressed down with the fingers In testimony whereof I hereunto affix my so as to prevent the fingers springing apart signature. when the cork is removed. The teeth on the fingers engage opposite sides of the cork and, ALFRED E. HYLAND.
