JP2011111234A - Bottle opening auxiliary tool for cork - Google Patents

Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a tool capable of extracting a cork without applying force thereto, considering that the cork is difficult to pull out, for example, a bottle tightly plugged with the cork such as a wine bottle is difficult to open without applying the force thereto, and the jig is difficult to treat, or the like. <P>SOLUTION: A bottle opening auxiliary tool for use in the cork includes: a spiral drill 3 with a handle 4; a transparent main body 1 which is in the shape of covering a bottle mouth and is screwed into a guide cap 2 at the threaded portions thereof; a bottle abutting stopper 10 in the lower part of the main body 1; a female thread part in the guide cap 2; and an opening which is formed in the center and is larger than the diameter of the cork. A method of its usage is as follows: the bottle abutting stopper 10 covers the bottle mouth; the spiral drill 3 abuts on the cork with the handle 4 gripped by a user and the handle 4 is turned; and the spiral drill 3 gets into the cork so as to eliminate a gap 7 between the handle 4 and the guide cap 2 thereby starting to pull out the cork and checking its pulling process. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT

Description

The present invention relates to a corkscrew opening aid for a cork stopper that makes it easier to operate a spiral cone that pulls out cork.

In the following Patent Documents 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, it is considered that the cork stopper is a very well thought out jig. However, there are parts that are attached and the structure is quite complicated, and it may be difficult to handle. Also, the conventional T-shaped spiral cone handle (wine opener) requires less gripping force and can be rotated lightly.

As can be seen from the above-mentioned patent document, the conventional methods of making the helical cone bite into the cork to make a clutch and immersing the drill into the cork are conventional, but the structure is very complicated.
Therefore, in the present invention, an object of the present invention is to provide a corkscrew removing jig having a very simple structure and easy handling.

In the present invention, a handle is provided on the spiral cone, and a guide cap is provided between the spiral cone and the handle for allowing the spiral cone to bite into the cork. A cylindrical shape with an opening larger than the target cork diameter is formed.

It can be very difficult to uncork wine. There are various jigs on the market, but many of them are expensive and difficult to handle.
According to the present invention, the cork stopper can be pulled out surely and easily while not requiring much force by simple handling.

It is the front view which permeate | transmitted a part of this invention. It is sectional drawing except the handle | steering-wheel part of this invention. The use condition of this invention is shown.

Examples of the present invention will be described below.
The main body (1) is provided with a male screw at the top and the guide cap (2) is provided with a female screw on the inner side, and the main body (1) and the guide cap (2) are screwed together. Next, the spiral cone (3) is passed from the upper part of the guide cap (2), and the tip is applied to the upper part of the cork. At this time, a clearance between the handle (4) and the guide cap is provided as appropriate, and the handle (4) of the spiral cone is turned so as to bite into the cork. Integrate the body (1) and guide cap (2) with screws, lightly grasp the handle (4) of the spiral cone with the other hand, pass it through the guide cap (2), and place the tip on the top of the cork Then, turn the handle (4) while turning it, check that the tip bites into the cork, and turn further to eliminate the gap (7) between the handle (4) and the guide cap (2). Further, by turning the handle (4), the spiral cone (3) tries to bite into the cork, but there is no gap with the guide cap (2).
Since the main body (1) and the guide cap (2) are transparent materials, the situation where the cork is removed can be understood, so that the cork can be removed without turning the handle (4) more than necessary.
The present invention is a detachable spiral cone auxiliary jig.
