Definitions
- corkscrew which includes a handle with a penknife blade, a twist, and a support element.
- the element support for the described corkscrew also includes a part additional support which can be unfolded by turning around the pivot until it is placed on the heel.
- the room support has a curved rung to adapt to the neck of the bottle offering a double action of lever during plug extraction. The handle and the spin can get higher without having to turn again the corkscrew.
- corkscrews such as those described and claimed by utility model no. 260.177, by the same owner, relating to a conventional type corkscrew, commonly called “sommelier", which includes a handle metallic whose line is a U-shaped section and whose one of the articulated ends has an arm foldable, also in U-shaped section, arranged for lean on the neck of the bottle, at an intermediate point of this handle we have applied the classic spin which takes either a position of work, in which it protrudes in direction orthogonal, i.e. a rest position, in which it is folded against the handle.
- sommelier which includes a handle metallic whose line is a U-shaped section and whose one of the articulated ends has an arm foldable, also in U-shaped section, arranged for lean on the neck of the bottle, at an intermediate point of this handle we have applied the classic spin which takes either a position of work, in which it protrudes in direction orthogonal, i.e. a rest position, in which it is
- this corkscrew includes a small pocket knife, hinged at the opposite end of the handle, intended to facilitate the operations of sealing and uncapping; on the opposite end is mounted a bottle cap crimper with a pair of equal side notches and placed facing face, with an appropriate shape, provided on the arm foldable and which make their use possible specific.
- This utility model has improved the so-called sommelier corkscrews in the sense that it provides a similar plastic body with elasticity characteristics, obtained in a process fully independent and located in the position of fit and fit onto said handle, allowing the free play of the elements which are articulated on it, fixing in position using the same rivets transverse.
- corkscrew As defined in claim 1, having a body, preferably metallic, serving as a handle and comprising a knife blade articulated around a rivet introduced into a housing, a spin articulated around a rivet fixed in a housing and a first arm folding support pivoting around a passing pin through a hole in said body, said body being covered a sheath having a groove serving as bottle opener at its upper part, its lower part being mostly closed, the folding support arm having a U-shaped profile, formed by a flat base from which extend perpendicularly from the wings, the base ending with a groove opposite the end of the handle at which the arm is articulated; the corkscrew being characterized by a second configuration support arm identical to the first but of less width than the base and provided with a longitudinal recess which can slide inside the first arm, the end
- the arm has a groove on the base for fitting a rivet guiding 1 interior of the exterior metal part.
- a spring was placed which, in the position of the support arm corresponds to the elongation minimal is compressed, however that in the maximum elongation position it lies entirely dilated.
- One end of the spring is in contact with the recess stop, while the other end exerts pressure on the tab of the arm.
- Figure 1 is a front view of the improved corkscrew (10), on which we can see its main elements: a molded body (11), a penknife blade (12), a spin (13) and the folding arm (15 ').
- Figure 2 consists of front views and from below the sheath (11).
- Figure 3 is a side view of the sheath (11) on which we can see the empty area (18) and the flanges located face to face (23), in the zone (18) there is a penknife blade (12).
- Figure 4 consists of a front view the metal body (20) of the corkscrew (10) and a bottom view of the same body (20).
- Figure 5 is a cross section of the body (20).
- Figure 6 consists of a bottom view and a cross section of the metal part (15 ').
- Figure 7 consists of a bottom view and sections transverse and longitudinal of the metal part (15).
- Figure 8 is a longitudinal section folding and extendable support arm (15-15 ') in maximum elongation position.
- Figure 9 is a top view folding arm (15-15 ') and a side view of it.
- Figure 10 is a longitudinal section folding arm (15-15 ') in position minimum elongation.
- Figure 11 is a perspective of the corkscrew (10) in the working position in which the arm (15 ') is supported on the neck (32) of the neck (33) of a bottle conventional.
- Figure 12 is a perspective of the corkscrew (10) in the working position in which the arm (15) comes out from inside (15 ') to get a longer one lever arm when the spin (13) extracts a plug the neck (33) of a conventional bottle.
- the corkscrew (10) presents known a penknife blade (12) in the upper part of the body molded (11), which has an empty area (18) for being able to store this blade (12) in the rest position, however that on the opposite part of this body (11) is finds the twist (13) which, in the storage position, is housed inside a large closed area (11a) which ends at the extreme point (19).
- the folding support arm (15 ') which is articulated with (11) through a rivet (16), the arm (15 ') having another arm (15) of practically the same shape and of lesser width and which slides inside the first arm (15 ').
- the arm (15) was designed, as indicated in Figure 7, with a flat base (15b) of which emerge perpendicularly from the wings (15d), the latter having notches at the ends (17); on the base (15b) a recess is provided longitudinal (27) and a groove (15a).
- the arm (15 ') is connected, as indicated in figure 1, with the sheath (11) through the rivet (16), which is inserted inside the hole (25), of the body (20).
- the arm (15 ') which houses the arm (15) allows the latter to slide in the arm (15 ') and the interior thereof by means of a rivet (26) which secures (15) to (15 ') using the groove (15a), see figures 8, 9 and 10.
- the base (15'a) of (15 ') has a groove (15'c).
- the sheath (11) is presents as a known form whose configuration is substantially U-shaped, and as can be seen in the figure no 3, with wings at the ends of which are ledges placed face to face (23), while in the upper part an empty area (18) is delimited so that the penknife blade (12) can remain hidden and protected by the sheath (11).
- a groove (14) On the upper part of the sheath (11) is a groove (14), see Figure 1, which allows the corkscrew (10) to work in functions bottle opener, pressing the corkscrew (10) in the area of (14) and taking the place lever on the crimp cap, fitting the edges groove (14); this has a beneficial effect because the corkscrew can work so that the user only needs one hand.
- the double-acting action of the corkscrew (10) is both with progressive effect, that is to say, as as shown in Figures 11 and 12, it remains only limited to two types of plugs (34), but also to those whose lengths are intermediate, the length of the folding arm adapts to the length the traffic jam.
- the corkscrew (10) comprises in its known form a body (20) provided with holes (18), (21) and (22): the axes passing through these holes allowing the deployment of the arm (15 '), of the spin (13) and the blade (12).
