DE3522793A1 - Bottle opener for removing bottle closures shaped like champagne corks - Google Patents

Abstract

The object of the invention is to open in a controlled and safe fashion bottles which are under internal pressure and are sealed by means of pressed-in bottle closures shaped like a typical champagne cork, i.e. which have a bead which projects beyond the bottle neck. According to the invention, the object is achieved in that the bead of the pressed-in bottle closure projecting beyond the bottle neck is inserted into an appropriate shaped part and the glass bead on the bottle neck is enclosed by a semi-circular ring. Initially, the closure is firmly seated in the bottle neck. Then the shaped part is moved towards the spindle axis by displacement of the spindle, the closure being pulled out of the bottle. The pressure in the bottle then causes the closure to be pressed against the shaped part, and the closure can then be removed from the bottle in a controlled and safe fashion by further displacement of the spindle. <IMAGE>

Description

The invention relates to the safe removal of Pressed bottle caps in the shape of a champagne cork Bottles with internal pressure.

As is well known, bottle closures are shaped like champagne corks held in the bottle with a bracket, which on the bead the neck of the bottle is secured with a wire. At the It often happens that the wire securing the bow is opened to the fact that, even with an initially tight fit of the closure in the bottle, due to the overpressure in the bottle of Ver put an end to the securing metal parts like a bullet from the Bottle is expelled, both for those with the bottle handling person as well as for those nearby Poses a significant risk to people.

The invention has for its object bottles with an interior Overpressure caused by the press - in bottle caps typical champagne cork shape, with one above the bottles neck protruding, closed, controlled and thus open securely, taking the risk of injury by suddenly flying around like bullets, like Bottle stopper, stopper and safety wire, is avoided.  

According to the invention the object is achieved in that the bead protruding beyond the bottle neck of the pressed-in Bottle cap inserted into a corresponding molded part give and the glass bead on the bottle neck of a half ring is enclosed. The bottle stopper is this way secured so that the safety wire of the example mentioned champagne cork bracket can be opened safely can. When the cap is initially firmly seated in the bottle neck becomes the half ring surrounding the bottle neck Bottle held in position by hand and adjusted the spindle moves the molded part in the direction of the spindle axis, the cap is pulled a bit out of the bottle. Due to the overpressure in the bottle, the cap is then closed pressed against the molded part and can, by further Ver put the spindle in a controlled and safe manner out of the bottle be removed.
