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 sealing a bottleneck whose edge has a restraint of semi-toroidal shape or thread having at least one against clearance: the crown cap is mainly consisting of a metal disk, placed on the neck concentrically to the latter, whose edges are folded laterally to crimp it on the restraint forming a notched crown.
  • bottle opener crown caps There is a multitude of bottle opener crown caps; they usually have a handle extended by a decapping head comprising two devices: a support device of the decapping head on the top of the capsule and a device hooking under at least one notch of the notched crown: when the bottle opener is in position on the cap crown the opening is done either by raising the handle if the attachment device is located between the handle and the support device, either by lowering the handle if the support device is between the handle and the device hooking.
  • US Patent 5, 261, 299 discloses a bottle opener of the kind mentioned above, further comprising a device for adapting the latter on two fingers of the hand; these measures of adaptation forms with the head of decapsulation of the rings which when put on the fingers allow fasten the bottle opener with your hand: in these conditions the handle of the bottle opener is found in the palm of the hand and the decapsulation is done by pressing on the handle with the Palm of the hand ; such a device has the disadvantage to be relatively bulky and to inconvenience the user in his other activities such as manipulating the currency or shake another person's hand; indeed the overthickness of the decapping head located under the finger phalange and handle prevent correct entry certain objects.
  • the invention consists in the production of a bottle opener attached to the fingers of the hand, by means of a fixing device, way that a server using a tray to serve in room or the terrace of a drinking establishment can uncap the bottles with one hand without having to prior to looking for the bottle opener in a pocket and then to carry out all the other operations involved by the function without being significantly impeded by the bottle opener stays in place in the hand.
  • the fixing device 1 (FIG. 3) of the bottle opener 2 is placed not at the level of the head of uncapping 3 but at the handle 4 so that the decapsulation head 3 is placed in the palm of the hand while the handle 4 which is shortened and its device fixation 1 are at the level of the first phalanges, the index and middle finger, when differentiated; when the fingers are in place in the device fixation 1, the decapsulation head 3 is placed in the palm of the hand, the decapsulation head 3 is placed at base level of the first phalanges when these are no longer differentiated and articulate with the bones of the metacarpus; in other words between the base of the index and the major and the transverse fold of the palm. In these conditions the palm of the hand can be bent and the head of decapsulation 3 can retract into this region of the palm of the hand which is fleshy and does not interfere with the movements of the hand.
  • a first fastening device 1 can consist of two sectors of rings 5 and 6 (fig.1) of variable width 8 (fig.2) placed back to back with a common part 7 in their middle area coming between the outside of the index finger and the inside of the middle finger (taken in the anatomical 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 finger to be able to remain joined and its width 10 (fig.2) can go from five to ten millimeters; the common part 7 is placed and shaped so that she can come and stay at the junction two fingers so that the middle finger and the index finger can be spread apart without the fixing device 1 escaping: the lower part 11 of ring sectors 5 and 6 is connected to the handle 4 which has a width 12 (fig.3) sufficient so that the front part of the first phalanx of the index and the middle finger can rely on it without, however, movements of the ring finger and thumb; the upper portion 13
  • the decapping head 3 (fig.1) comprises a cutout 16 comprising a first side located on the side of the fingers, a second side located opposite the side of the line of crease 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 decapping head 3 on the upper part of the crown cap; this support device 17 is substantially plane and located in the extension handle 4 constituting a lever arm; it presents a support edge 18, bordering the cutout 16, substantially rectilinear length of the order of magnitude of a rope circle circumscribing the notched crown located at a distance, ranging from a quarter to a sixth of the length of the diameter, from the center of the notched crown; when the support device 17 is in its place before the operation of decapping, the support border 18 determines a line of pivoting of the lever arm constituted by the handle 4, positioned as described above with respect to the circle circumscribed to the notched crown; when the device 17 is in place before the decapsulation, it is positioned in
  • the second side has a hooking device 19 (fig.3) which is a rigid blade whose central zone comes under the notches of the ring gear when the support device 17 is in its place on the upper face of the crown cap as previously described; this hooking device 19 has a hooking border 20 which is either rectilinear 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 crown plug.
  • a hooking device 19 (fig.3) which is a rigid blade whose central zone comes under the notches of the ring gear when the support device 17 is in its place on the upper face of the crown cap as previously described; this hooking device 19 has a hooking border 20 which is either rectilinear 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 crown plug.
  • the first side and the second side are connected by the lateral sides 21 and 22 whose parts bordering the cutout 16 preferably constitute guides 23 and 24 allowing to correctly position the support edges 18 and 20: indeed, just put the handle 4 on the top of the crown cap with the part common 7 centered on the top of the cap crown and advance the right hand in front while folding fingers to grab the bottleneck of the bottle under the cap crown so that the support edge 18 is put in place on the crown cap and the hooking edge 20 installs itself under the toothed crown; then the first phalanges of the index and middle finger press on the 4 by their front, while the back of the first phalanges come to bear on the enlarged area 14 of the upper part 13 of the ring sectors 5 and 6 and allow the deformation of the crown plug causing its uncrimping.
  • the first device 1 (fig.1) is replaced by a second device 25 (fig.4 and 5) of the bottle opener 30 consisting of a ring 26 split at its upper portion 27 fixed on the sleeve 28 and in which is put the major or the index of the hand; this ring has the same type of enlarged area 29 than those described for the upper part 13 (fig.2) of sectors of rings.
  • the fixing devices thus described can be made entirely of metal such as sheet metal two millimeter thick stainless steel that is stamped and spot welded; in a favorite version a part of the handle 4.28 and the decapping head 3 are in metal, while the 1.25 fastening device is in injected plastic material which is preferably overmolded on the 4.28 handle whose geometric characteristics have have been modified to allow overmolding.
