Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for fixing a crown cap bottle opener on the fingers of the hand.
- the crown cap is intended for closing a bottle neck, the edge of which has a semi-toroidal retainer or a thread having at least one undercut;
- the crown plug mainly consists of a metal disc, placed on the neck concentrically to the latter, the edges of which are folded down laterally to crimp it onto the retainer, forming a notched crown.
- crown cap bottle openers there are a multitude of crown cap bottle openers; they generally comprise a handle extended by a decapping head comprising two devices: a device for supporting the decapping head on the upper part of the capsule and a device for hooking under at least one notch of the notched crown; when the bottle opener is in position on the crown cap the opening is made either by lifting the handle if the hooking device is located between the handle and the support device, or by lowering the handle if the support device is between the handle and the hanging device.
- Patent FR-A-2,707,278 describes a bottle opener additionally comprising a device for adapting the latter on a finger of the hand; this adaptation device forms with the uncapping head a ring which, when threaded on a finger, makes it possible to secure the bottle opener with the hand; under these conditions the bottle opener handle is found in the palm of the hand and the bottle opener is done by pressing on the handle with the palm of the hand; this adaptation device is connected to the bottle opener in an area between the support device and the attachment device which are at the level of the first phalanx of the finger in the area where the phalanges are well differentiated; such a device has the disadvantage of being relatively bulky and of hampering the user in his other activities such as for example handling money or shaking the hand of another person; indeed the extra thickness of the uncapping head located under the phalanx of a finger and the handle prevent the correct entry of certain objects.
- the invention consists in the production of a bottle opener fixed to the fingers of the hand, by a fixing device, so that a server using a tray for serving in the dining room or on the terrace of a drinking establishment can decapsulate bottles with one hand without first having to search for the bottle opener in a pocket and then to carry out all the other operations involved in the function without being significantly hampered by the bottle opener which remains in place in the hand.
- Figure 1 is an elevational view of the bottle opener in question.
- Figure 2 is a side view.
- Figure 3 is a plan view from above.
- Figure 4 shows in elevation an alternative embodiment of the bottle opener.
- Figure 5 is a side view.
- the fixing device 1 (fig.l to 3) of the bottle opener 2 is placed not at the level of the bottle opener head 3 but at the level of the handle 4 so that the bottle opener head 3 is placed in the palm of the hand while the handle 4 which is shortened and its fixing device 1 are at the level of the first phalanges, index and middle fingers, when they are differentiated; when the fingers are in place in the fixing device 1, the head. decapsulation 3 is placed in the palm of the hand; the uncapping head 3 is placed at the base of the first phalanxes when these are no longer differentiated and articulate with the bones of the metacarpus; in other words between the base of the index and middle fingers and the transverse fold of the palm. Under these conditions the palm of the hand can be folded and the uncapping head 3 can be retracted in this region of the palm of the hand which is fleshy and does not interfere with the movements of the hand.
- a first fixing device 1 can be made up of two sectors rings 5 and 6 (fig.l) of width 8 (fig, 2) variable placed back to back with a common part 7 in their median zone coming to be placed between the outside side of the index and the inside side of the middle finger (taken in the anato ic sense of the term) at the level where these two fingers meet; the thickness 9 of this common part 7 is of the order of one to two millimeters to allow the index and middle fingers to remain contiguous and its width 10 (fig.2) can range from five to ten millimeters; the common part 7 is placed and shaped so that it can be received and wedged at the junction of the two fingers so that the middle finger and the index finger can be moved apart without the fixing device 1 escaping; the lower part 11 of the ring sectors 5 and 6 is connected to the handle 4 which has a width 12 (fig.
- the uncapping head 3 (fig.l) has a central cutout 16 comprising a first side located on the side of the fingers, a second side located opposite the side of the fold line of the palm and lateral sides connecting the first and the second side; the first side is constituted by a support device 17 of the uncapping head 3 on the upper part of the crown plug; this support device 17 is substantially planar rigid and located in the extension of the handle 4 constituting a lever arm; it has a support edge 18, bordering the
- the second side has a hooking device 19 (fig.3) which is a rigid blade whose central zone is placed under the notches of the ring gear when the support device 17 is in its place on the upper face crown cap as previously described; this fastening device 19 comprises a fastening edge 20 which is either straight or slightly concave and which is in a plane parallel to the plane of the support device 17 and at a distance of the same order of magnitude as the height of the plug crowned.
- a hooking device 19 (fig.3) which is a rigid blade whose central zone is placed under the notches of the ring gear when the support device 17 is in its place on the upper face crown cap as previously described; this fastening device 19 comprises a fastening edge 20 which is either straight or slightly concave and which is in a plane parallel to the plane of the support device 17 and at a distance of the same order of magnitude as the height of the plug crowned.
- the first side and the second side are connected by the lateral sides 21 and 22, the parts bordering the cutout
- the 16 preferably constitute guides 23 and 24 making it possible to correctly position the support edges 18 and attachment 20: indeed, it suffices to place the handle 4 on the upper part of the crown plug with the common part 7 centered on the upper part of the crown cap and advance the right hand in front while folding the fingers to grasp the go ⁇ lot of the bottle under the crown cap so that the support edge 18 is put in place on the crown cap and the border of hooking 20 is put in place under the notched crown; then the first phalanges of the index and middle fingers press on the handle 4 ' by their front face, while the rear face of the first phalanges come to bear on the enlarged zone 14 of the upper part 13 of the ring sectors 5 and 6 and allow the deformation of the crown cap causing it to be cut.
- the first fixing device 1 (fig.l) is replaced by a second fixing device 25 (fig.4 and 5) of the bottle opener 30 constituted by a ring 26 split at its upper part 27 fixed on the handle 28 and into which the middle finger or the index finger of the hand is threaded; this ring has the same type of enlarged area 29 than those described for the upper part 13 (fig. 2) of the ring sectors.
- the fixing devices thus described can be made entirely of metal such as, for example, two-millimeter thick stainless steel sheet which is stamped and spot welded; in a preferred version, part of the handle 4.28 and the uncapping head 3 are made of metal, while the fixing device 1.25 is made of injected plastic which is preferably molded onto the handle 4.28, the geometric characteristics of which have been modified to allow overmolding.
