Description

L'invention concerne un dispositif pour l'ouverture des huîtres. The invention relates to a device for opening oysters.

Ce dispositif se compose d'un socle sur lequel est prévu un logement pour recevoir l'huître à ouvrir, ainsi qu'un bras de levier monté articulé sur le socle et pourvu d'une lame, cette lame venant, par basculement du bras de levier, à hauteur du logement pour ouvrir l'huître. This device consists of a base on which is provided a housing for receiving the oyster to be opened, as well as a lever arm mounted articulated on the base and provided with a blade, this blade coming, by tilting the arm of lever at the level of the housing to open the oyster.

Ce dispositif est caractérisé en ce que le socle est pourvu, sur l'un des côtés de sa face inférieure, d'un rebord d'appui latéral sur un support et en ce que le levier est monté articulé sur une portion d'axe fixée, d'une part, dans le socle, d'autre part, dans un étrier de montage du dispositif sur un plateau support. This device is characterized in that the base is provided, on one of the sides of its lower face, with a lateral support flange on a support and in that the lever is mounted articulated on a portion of fixed axis , on the one hand, in the base, on the other hand, in a bracket for mounting the device on a support plate.

Suivant une autre caractéristique de l'invention, le logement est réalisé dans une pièce sensiblement demi-circulaire, pourvue d'une ouverture centrale et fixée sur le socle, cette pièce étant pourvue d'une collerette interne sur la face supérieure de l'ouverture centrale, le socle comportant en outre un creux se prolongeant, depuis l'ouverture centrale de la pièce demi-circulaire, jusqu'au coté opposé du socle, ce creux étant orienté sensiblement perpendiculairement au plan diamétral de la pièce demi-circulaire. According to another characteristic of the invention, the housing is produced in a substantially semicircular part, provided with a central opening and fixed on the base, this part being provided with an internal flange on the upper face of the opening. central, the base further comprising a hollow extending from the central opening of the semicircular part, to the opposite side of the base, this hollow being oriented substantially perpendicular to the diametral plane of the semicircular part.

L'invention est représentée à titre d'exemple non limitatif sur l'unique dessin ci-joint, qui est une vue en perspective du dispositif conforme à l'invention. The invention is shown by way of nonlimiting example in the single attached drawing, which is a perspective view of the device according to the invention.

Ce dispositif a pour but de faciliter l'opération d'ouverture des huîtres, c'est-à-dire de permettre une ouverture rapide sans efforts importants et sans détériorer la coquille. The purpose of this device is to facilitate the opening operation of oysters, that is to say to allow rapid opening without significant effort and without damaging the shell.

Ce dispositif est, à cet effet, conçu pour pouvoir se fixer rapidement et solidement sur le bord d'un plateau de support et, par exemple, sur le rebord d'une table, afin que les efforts développés lors de l'ouverture d'une huître soient directement supportés par le plateau de support. This device is, for this purpose, designed to be able to quickly and securely be fixed on the edge of a support plate and, for example, on the edge of a table, so that the forces developed during the opening of an oyster are directly supported by the support plate.

Le dispositif conforme à l'invention se compose d'un socle rectangulaire 1, par exemple en bois, Epnt le coté avant 2 est pourvu, sur la face inférieure du socle, d'un rebord longitudinal 3. Ce rebord est destiné à venir en appui latéral sur le plateau d'une table, afin de coopérer au positionnement du dispositif, ce positionnement étant également assuré par un étrier 4. La branche inférieure 41 de l'étrier est pourvue d'une vis de serrage 5 dont l'extrgmlté supérieure comporte un disque 6 venant se serrer contre la face inférieure du plateau de la table. The device according to the invention consists of a rectangular base 1, for example made of wood, Epnt the front side 2 is provided, on the underside of the base, with a longitudinal edge 3. This edge is intended to come in lateral support on the table top, in order to cooperate in positioning the device, this positioning also being provided by a stirrup 4. The lower branch 41 of the stirrup is provided with a clamping screw 5, the upper extremity of which comprises a disc 6 coming to clamp against the underside of the table top.

La branche supérieure 42 de l'étrier, est logée dans une rainure 11 de la face supérieure du socle 1. The upper branch 42 of the stirrup is housed in a groove 11 on the upper face of the base 1.

L'extrémité libre de cette branche 42 reçoit, par vissage, une portion d'axe 7. Cette portion d'axe 7 se visse également dans un écrou 8 inséré dans le socle 1.The free end of this branch 42 receives, by screwing, a portion of axis 7. This portion of axis 7 is also screwed into a nut 8 inserted in the base 1.

Le blocage de la portion d'axe 7 est assuré par un écrou 9 s'appuyant sur la branche 42 de l'étrier. The pin portion 7 is locked by a nut 9 resting on the branch 42 of the stirrup.

L'extrémité supérieure de la portion d'axe 7 est coudée afin de maintenir de manière articulée l'extrémité d'un levier 10 pourvu d'une poignée de manipula tion 11 et d'une lame rapportée 12. L'extrémité de cette lame forme un V dont les côtés sont biseautés.The upper end of the axis portion 7 is bent so as to articulate the end of a lever 10 provided with a handling handle 11 and an attached blade 12. The end of this blade forms a V with bevelled sides.

Le levier 10 est monté articulé sur la portion d'axe 7 par un oeillet 101.The lever 10 is mounted articulated on the axis portion 7 by an eyelet 101.

Sur la face supérieure du socle 1, est également prévue une pièce rapportée de forme générale demicirculaire 13 réalisée, de préférence, dans le même matériau que celui constituant le socle 1. Cette pièce 13 comporte une ouverture centrale 14 constituant une partie du logement pour la réception de l'huître à ouvrir. La pièce 13 est pourvue d'une collerette interne 15 sur la face supérieure de son ouverture centrale 14, tandis que la face supérieure du socle 1 comporte un creux 16 formant une rainure à fond courbe de faible profondeur, se prolongeant depuis l'ouverture centrale 14 de la pièce 13 jusqu'au côté opposé du socle. On the upper face of the base 1, there is also provided an insert of generally semicircular shape 13 made, preferably, of the same material as that constituting the base 1. This part 13 has a central opening 14 constituting a part of the housing for the reception of the oyster to be opened. The part 13 is provided with an internal collar 15 on the upper face of its central opening 14, while the upper face of the base 1 has a recess 16 forming a groove with a curved bottom of shallow depth, extending from the central opening 14 from part 13 to the opposite side of the base.

Ce creux est orienté sensiblement perpendiculairement au plan diamétral 131 de la pièce 13. This hollow is oriented substantially perpendicular to the diametrical plane 131 of the part 13.

L'huître, et notamment l'huître creuse, que l'on désire ouvrir, se place par son extrémité avant à l'intérieur de l'ouverture centrale demi-circulaire 14 de la pièce 13, en étant maintenue dans cette ouverture par le rebord interne 15. En outre, cette huître se dispose longitudinalement dans le creux 16 et se trouve ainsi correctement maintenue longitudinalement et latéralement. The oyster, and in particular the hollow oyster, which it is desired to open, is placed by its front end inside the semicircular central opening 14 of the part 13, while being held in this opening by the internal rim 15. In addition, this oyster is arranged longitudinally in the hollow 16 and is thus correctly maintained longitudinally and laterally.

La lame 12 est fixée sur le levier 10 de façon que, en faisant basculer ce levier sur la portion d'axe 7, la pointe de la lame 12 puisse venir pénétrer dans l'extrémité arrière de l'huître préalablement positionnée. Un léger effort de pression puis de torsion suffit alors pour ouvrir l'huître sans blesser la chair du mollusque et sans détériorer les deux parties de la coquille.  The blade 12 is fixed on the lever 10 so that, by tilting this lever on the axis portion 7, the tip of the blade 12 can come into the rear end of the oyster previously positioned. A slight pressure then twisting effort is enough to open the oyster without injuring the flesh of the mollusk and without damaging the two parts of the shell.
