Description

この発明はペットボトルのキャップを容易に開ける為の道具である。
従来ペットボトルのキャップは最初に開ける時、幼児やお年寄りまたは指の力が弱い人達には開け辛く不便で有った。又従来品はペットボトル専用では無く複雑で製造コストも掛かり近年多様に使用されているペットボトルに、手軽に使用出来る物は無かった。
本発明は、その様な人達にも力をそれほど使わずにペットボトルのキャップを開けられ、又ほとんどのペットボトルのキャップ外径サイズがあまり変わらないことに着目し製造も容易で低コストにて供給出来る物を考えた。それを図面について説明すると（２）はペットボトルのキャップにかぶせはめ込む部分、この凹凸がペットボトルキャップ外径の凹凸にくい付く。（１）はハンドル部分でここを握りペットボトルのキャップを回しキャップを開けるので、工具のレンチやスパナなどで、閉め込んだボルト等を外すときの様な感じで力はそれほど必要無く開ける事が出来る。又、使用後は（３）からペットボトルのキャップを押し出せる。このような物なので、ペットボトルのキャップに、はめ込む部分の凹凸がペットボトルのキャップの凹凸にしっかり嵌合していればハンドル部分は握りやすく回しやすければどの様な形状でも良い。

１はハンドル部分，２はペットボトルのキャップにはめ込む凹凸部分，３は外れたキャップを押し出す穴，４はペットボトル，５はペットボトル専用キャップオープナー。The present invention is a tool for easily opening a cap of a plastic bottle.
Conventionally, when opening the cap of a plastic bottle for the first time, it was difficult and inconvenient to open it for infants, the elderly or those with weak fingers. Conventional products are not exclusively used for PET bottles, but are complicated and costly to manufacture, and none of PET bottles used in recent years can be used easily.
The present invention focuses on the fact that such people can open the cap of a plastic bottle without using much power, and that the outer diameter of the cap of most plastic bottles does not change so much, it is easy to manufacture and at low cost. I thought about what I could supply. This will be described with reference to the drawings. (2) is a portion to be fitted over the cap of the plastic bottle, and the unevenness is less likely to be uneven on the outer diameter of the plastic bottle cap. (1) Open the cap by holding the handle portion and turning the cap of the plastic bottle to open the cap. With a tool wrench or spanner, you can open the cap without much need, just like removing a closed bolt etc. I can do it. After use, the cap of the PET bottle can be pushed out from (3). As such, the handle portion may have any shape as long as the handle portion is easy to grip and turn if the unevenness of the portion to be fitted to the plastic bottle cap is firmly fitted to the unevenness of the plastic bottle cap.
