Abstract

The invention relates to an original device for closing and unclosing a bottle containing an effervescent liquid such as champagne. According to the invention, this device comprises means (8) which can vary the diameter of the plug or cork body (3) on at least one portion of its height and means (16, 17) for evacuating the gas compressed on top of the liquid before unclosing the bottle. These particular means provide for an effortless opening of the bottle and eliminate any risk of uncontrolled spouting out of liquid.

Description

DESCRIPTION
La présente invention concerne un dispositif équipé d'une soupape permettant l'évacuation des gaz contenus dans une bouteille renfermant un vin effervescent et munie d'une vessie gonflable permettant de grossir ou de diminuer le diamètre de ce dispositif dans sa partie inférieure celle que l'on insert dans le goulot d'une bouteille,afin d'une part d'éviter le déversement du liquide du a la pression des gaz contenus dans une bouteille et d'autre part de diminuer le diamètre pour faciliter la séparation du dispositif et du goulot ,afin d'obtenir l'ouverture d'une bouteille sans demander un effort important à son utilisateur.DESCRIPTION
The present invention relates to a device equipped with a valve allowing the evacuation of the gases contained in a bottle containing an effervescent wine and provided with an inflatable bladder making it possible to enlarge or reduce the diameter of this device in its lower part that which the 'is inserted into the neck of a bottle, in order to avoid the spillage of the liquid due to the pressure of the gases contained in a bottle and on the other hand to reduce the diameter to facilitate the separation of the device and the neck, in order to obtain the opening of a bottle without requiring significant effort from its user.

Les dispositifs traditionnels ,en lièges, ou en matières plastiques courament utilisés n'étant pas équipés d'une soupape permettant d'une part l'évacuation des gaz avant l'ouverture d'une bouteille renfermant un vin effervescent ,il est fréquent que le liquide contenu sous pression jaillisse de manière incontrolé lorsque l'on sépare le dispositif du goulot de la bouteille pour en obtenir l'ouverture. The traditional devices, in cork, or in plastics commonly used not being equipped with a valve allowing on the one hand the evacuation of the gases before the opening of a bottle containing an effervescent wine, it is frequent that the liquid contained under pressure springs uncontrollably when the device is separated from the neck of the bottle to obtain its opening.

D'autre part n'étant pas équipés d'une vessie gonflable et dégonflable permettant de diminuer le diamètre du dispositif dans sa partie inférieure,pour faciliter l'ouverture d'une bouteille, il est demander un effort important a son utilisateur. On the other hand not being equipped with an inflatable and deflatable bladder making it possible to reduce the diameter of the device in its lower part, to facilitate the opening of a bottle, it is to require a significant effort from its user.

Ce dispositif ,selon l'invention permet de remédier a ces inconvéniants. This device according to the invention overcomes these disadvantages.

Ce dispositif comporte en effet ,selon une première caracté ristique un bouchon qui se compose de deux parties et présentant trois orifices. This device in fact comprises, according to a first characteristic, a plug which is composed of two parts and having three orifices.

Le premier orifice se trouvant à la base du dispositif et permettant le passage des gaz,les deux autres orifices ou vien nent se loger deux soupapes munies chacunes d'une tirette ,se trouvent sur la tète du dispositif et sont recouvertes d'un cache ne laissant passé que les deux tirettes de commandes. The first orifice being at the base of the device and allowing the passage of gases, the other two orifices or come to accommodate two valves, each provided with a pull tab, are on the head of the device and are covered with a cover. leaving past only the two pull bars.

La première tirette permettant à l'utilisateur d'évacuer les gaz contenus dans une bouteille renfermant un vin effervescent avant l'ouverture.  The first zipper allows the user to evacuate the gases contained in a bottle containing an effervescent wine before opening.

La seconde tirette permettant de diminuer la grosseur du dispositif par un système de vessie dégonflable dans sa partie inférieure,afin de faciliter le débouchage d'une bouteille.  The second zipper makes it possible to reduce the size of the device by a deflatable bladder system in its lower part, in order to facilitate the uncorking of a bottle.

Selon des modes particiliers de réalisations:
