  The object of the present invention is to provide improvements to the device for opening the rooms for sterilization (Patent N097 15892) by providing additional devices on the branches of the clamp in the form of an extension of the branches and of a grooved area.

  The appended figures illustrating the invention.

  - Figure 1 shows the device as a whole.

  - Figure 2 shows (Scale: 5) the detail of the invention on the nozzle side (5) and (6) is opposite the gripping side.

  - Figure 3 shows the device in position for opening the pots (11) with the cover 10 (10) screwed or crimped.

  - Figure 4 shows the device in position for the opening phases of the boxes (16) with pulling ring (13).

  - Figure 5 shows the device in position for opening the pots (17) with capsule (14).

  - Figure 6 shows the device in position for screwing or unscrewing the cap (12) 15 of a container (18).

  The device according to the invention consists of 2 branches (1) and (2) which are extended by 2 spouts, a long spout (6) carried by the branch (2). This spout (6) has a length and a shape sufficient to allow the opening of the pots (11) screwed or crimped, pots (17) with capsule (14) and raise the pulling rings (13) on the boxes (16 ).

  The short spout (5) and the long spout (6) carry locking notches (9) and (15) (Fig. 2).

  The branches (1) and (2) have an area with grip grooves (7) and (8).

  Particular modes of use of the present invention are as follows: A / Pot opening having a screwed lid - (Fig. 3! Engage the spout (6) in the small housings located between the lid (10) and the pot (11 25 Lever to take off and allow air to enter.

  The opening will then be done easily by hand.

  B / Jar opening with a crimped lid - (Fig. 3) Engage the spout (6) under the crenellated crenellated flaps. Lever to spread the flaps and allow air to enter. The opening will then be done easily by hand. 30 C / Box opening with a pull ring cover (Fig. 4) Engage the spout (6) under the ring (13), lift to create the rupture of the cover (19). Place the ring (13) between the arms (1) and (2). Lock with the sliding ring (3). Turn up and down to open.

  D / Pot opening with a "capsule" cover (Fig. 5) Open the branches (1) and (2). Place the spout (6) on the edge of the capsule (14), place the spout (5) under the rim of the capsule (14). Turn clockwise to open.

  E / Loosen or tighten the plugs (Fig. 6) Engage the plug (12) between the grooved areas (7) and (8). Clamp the branches and turn.
