GORKJULLER.
Application filed June 15, 1903. Serial No. 161,426.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ALBERT BAUMGARTEN, a resident of Freeport, in the county of Stephenson and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Cork-Pullers, ofwhich the following is a specification. r
The present invention relates to devices for drawing corks, stoppers and the like, from bottles, and more particularly to the class known as lever-operated pullers.
The invention designs to improve the construction and operation of cork puller's and to rovide a device simple in construction, an positive in its operation.
The invention consists-in the several novel features hereinafter set forth and more particularly defined by claims at the conclusion hereof. a
In the-drawings: Figure 1- is a view in side elevation of a cork-puller embodying thepre ferred form of the invention, one section of the supporting-frame or casing being omitted.
Fig. 2 is a similar view, looking in the opposite direction and showing the arts in position assumed when a cork has been drawn. Fig. 3 is transverse section on line 3-3 of Fig.1. 1.
A denotes a suitable supporting-frame or casing usually rovided with a clamp (1 whereby the cor -puller can be secured toa table, counter or shelf, and formed of sections fitting together, and forming a casing wherein the cork-screw and longitudinally movable parts are guided and held. An operating lever B having a handle I) is ivotally sustained by afulcrum orpin'b" he d in the frame. 'A cork-screw C is journaled in a carrier D mounted in manner freeto slide-in a socket E in the frame. A pitman or'o erating-bar F has its lower end .connectec to carrier D by pin d, and has its upper 'end detachably connected with the operatin "-lever,
' by a hook f which is movable into, an out of engagement with an integral stud B of the lever. A s ring Gr presses bar F toward stud B to hold ookf and stud B in engagement with each other. vilinear path and on'both sides of. a vertical line passing through the lever-fulcrum b and a lug a is positioned to detain hook-f, at one side of said line, when the pin reaches its lowermost position,' and travels to the oppo site side of the lever-fulcrum. e
A nut E is slidably and non-revolubly held n spec fication of Letters Patent.
Stud B travels in a cur Patented April 27, 1909.
in the frame and is formed with a spiral groove or opening through which the corkscrew passes, and rotates the screw when longitudinal movement is imparted to one of said parts with respect to the other. Nut E is formed with a vertical-extension E which is formed with a way or guide e arranged in position to be entered bystud B after it has passed out of engagement with operatingbar F, and said stud imparts positive longitudinal movement in both directions to the nut. A stop such as an aloutmenta limits the downward movement of the nut. During upward shift of the nut, the carrier will be immediately above the nut and will be positively shifted upwardly by the nut. An
inclined surface a of lug a which is integrally formed with the frame, deflects springpressed bar F during the upward shift of the carrier, and a tooth or projection f 3 is pressed into position above abutment a by spring G when the operating-bar reaches its uppermost position, so the bar, carrier and corkscrew will be locked and secured against downward longitudinal travel with the nut.
Reverse shift of lever B first positively shifts the nut downward to strip the drawn cork from the corkscrew. After the nut has stripped the cork from the screw the nut is in its lowermost position, stud B will travel upwardly and during such upward movement will engage an inclined surface f 4 on bar F press the bar away from abutment a and "pass into position so hook f will be pressed into engagement with said stud. Lever B is formed with a head B having a rim which closes the opening between the side walls of the casing, and wherein the lever travels. Stops a and a on the frame limit the ivotal swing of the operating-lever. Toot f of the operating bar is arranged out of the path of travel of stud B so that during retraction of lever B the stud B will not encounter said hook but will ride along edge f 4 of the bar and disengage the bar from lug 0 Nut E in addition to being guided in socket A is confined during the longitudinal shift by the frame as at at and by a straight edge a" of lug a e a l The operation of the mechanism for drawing a cork will be as follows: Assuming the parts to be in'normal position shown in Fig. 1, and a bottlewith a cork therein, to be held beneath the frame, the operator will move lever in the direction of the arrow and until B reaches the position shown in Fig. 2 and indicated by dotted lines in Fig. 11. During the initial portion of its travel stud B will move downwardly, and operating-bar F being then operatively connected with said stud by hook f, will move carrier D and corkscrew 0 downwardly. During such downward travel the cork-screw will be rotated by nut E and the resultant gyratory movement of the screw will drive it into the cork. As stud reaches its lowermost position, it will pass out of hook f, and into way a of nut E. Lever B and nut E will then be directly and positively connected, and during the upward travel of stud B on the opposite side of the lever-fulcrum the nu t will be'moved upwardly. Such movement of the nut will impart unison longitudinal movement to the superposed carrier and the cork-screw with the cork thereon will be drawn from the cork from the bottle. During the cork-drawing operation, operating-bar F will be forced backwardly by inclined surface a and tooth f 3 will be pressed into position above abutment a and will then secure the carrier against downward movement. The operator will ne shift the lever in reverse direction and during the initial reverse shift thereof stud B will positively shift the nut downwardly independentlyof the cork-screw and carrier, and strip'the cork from the cork-screw. When stud B reaches its lowermost position in its reverse travel the nut will have been restored to its normal position and the stud will pass out of way 6 and out of engagement with the nut. During the succeeding upward movement of the stud it will impinge against inclined surface f of bar F, which will be shifted backwardly thereby, and thus disengaged from abutment a so bar F will be again operatively connected to the lever and so the bar will clear said abutment during the succeeding downward movement, and will be again operatively connected with the carrier. The parts will then be in readiness for another operation.
The operation and construction of the device are simple and the use of interlocking mechanism for insuring unison movement of the carrier and nut is entirely avoided. By stripping the cork from the cork-screw by shift of the nut, an additional operation of the lever, heretofore necessary in corkpullers in which the travel of the cork-screw was sufficient only to draw the cork, and the extended travel necessary in cork-pullers in which the cork-screw has a continuous movement in one direction, sufficient to draw the cork, and strip the cork from the screw, are also avoided.
Having thus'described the invention, what I claim as new and .desire to secure by Letters Patent is: 7
