Description
B. T. BRBITHUT. BOTTLE CAP OPENER.
APPLICATION FILED $312.20, 1913.
1,123,234,, Patented Jan.5., 1915.
amoemto'z BENJAMIN T. BBEITHUT, OF ASBURY PARK, NEW JERSEY.
BOTTLE-CAP OPENER.
Application filed February 20, 1913.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, BENJAMIN T. Bnnrr- HUT, citizen of the United States, residing at Asbury Park, in the county of Monmouth and State of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Bottle-Cap Openers, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to bottle caps.
The primary object of the invention is to provide an opener for crimped metallic caps which will be supported by the cap and which may be manipulated to remove the cap without danger of breaking the bottle, the construction being such that the cap may be attached and the bottle handled in the usual manner.
In the drawings: Figure 1 is a perspective view showing the device arranged on a bottle; Fig. 2 is a bottom plan view; Fig. 3 is a transverse section showing the position of the bail before the cap is lifted; Fig. 1 is a transverse section showing the cap as being lifted.
In the drawings, 10' designates a cap of the usual construction, the edge of which is crimped and disposed to embrace the beading of a bottle. The cap is provided with apertures 11 which are disposed out of alinement with the center of the cap so that a line connecting them will be eccentric to the cap. A bail 12 is provided with right angle extensions 13 which extend through the apertures formed in the cap. These extensions are curved at 14 and their terminals 15 flattened, the flattened terminals being disposed in the same plane as the curved portion 16 of the bail. Thus, when the bail embraces the flange 17 of the cap, the terminals will lie parallel with the body portion of the cap. The cork and parafiin disk may then be inserted within the cap and the cap placed on the bottle in the usual manner, the flattened terminals of the bail in no way interfering with the cork' or seal or the clamping of the crimped flange to the beadin of the bottle.
The bai '12 is resilient, and it will be Specification of Letters Patent.

noted that when it is brought to the posi- When it is desired to remove the cap from/ the bottle, the bail is raised to the position shown in Fig. 4:, the curved terminals of the bail being brought in contact with the cork disk, pressure being exerted on the disk at a point where it overlies the edge of the bottle. This pressure will raise the edge of the cap, and it may then be readily removed by pulling on the bail. Particular attention is called to the fact that the bail does not contact with the bottle, and that while the necessary pressure is exerted on the bottle to separate the cap therefrom, the removal of the cap is effected without danger of breakin the bottle.
The many a vantages of a device of this character will be clearly apparent as it will be seen that it forms an efi'ectual cap remover, which may be attached to the cap prior to its positioning on the bottle. It will also be seen that the construction will not interfere with the usual positioning of the sealing disks.
It will be noted that the bail snugly embraces the cap, and that due to its resiliency the bail is held against displacement and may be raised when it is desired to remove the cap. It will be seen by this construction that the usual cap machines may be employed in positioning the cap on the bottle, and that the bottle may be handled in as though equipped with the usual form of crimped cap.
It will also be noted that the construction is such as may be easily and economically manufactured, and that it may be used in connection with caps of the Painter type without rendering them ineffectual as seals.
