- Improvement inx Bottle Openers] No. 119,802. Patented Oct. 10,1871.
UNITED STATES CHARLES B. TRIMBLE, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
IMPROVEMENT IN BOTTLE-OPENERS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 119,802, dated October 10, 1871.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, CHARLES B. TRIMBLE, of the city of New York, in the county and State of New York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Bottle-Openers; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable others skilled in the art to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying; drawing forming part of this specification.
The object of this invention is to provide ready and convenient means for removing the wire yokes from the corks of bottles confining effervescing liquids; and it consists in. a metallic stirrup or casting attached to the counter or placed in any convenient position, so constructed that by a slight pressure the yoke is forced from the cork of the bottle, when the gas immediately forces the cork from the neck, as I will proceed to describe.
In the accompanying drawing, Figure 1 represents a front view, showing the stirrup attached to the under-side shelf or counter. Fig. 2 is a side view of the same, showing the manner of applying the bottle and the position after the yoke has been removed.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
A is the edge of a counter or shelf. B is the stirrup, consisting of a plate, 0, provided with screen-holes for fastening it to the counter. D D are ears which project downward and outward, forming, for convenience in using, an angle with .the plate of thirty degrees, more or less, as seen in Fig. 2. E E are lugs on the inner sides of the ears. F is the yoke on the neck of the bottle, confined by and turning on a wire, G, which is around the neck of the bottle. The yoke is in something the form of a staple with pii'ots on the ends of its legs. When the bottle is filled and the cork is driven into the neck the yoke is turned up over it, which securely holds it against the pressure of the gas in the bottle. The pressure of the gas is frequently so great that the end of the yoke is embedded in the end of the cork, rendering it extremely difficult to remove it by simply pressing it with the end of the thumb and fingers. By grasping the bottle and pressing the bars H H of the yoke against the lugs E E ofthe stirrup the yoke is readily forced off the cork. WVhen this is done the nose of the bot tle will pass between the lugs and the cork will fly under the counter, as indicated in the draw ing. By this simple device the cork is removed without straining the thumb or fingers. Much time is saved and no one is annoyed by the flying cork.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- A device for removing the yoke from the top of a bottle-cork, consisting of plate 0, ears D D, and lugs E E, constructed and arranged as de scribed.
Witnesses: CHAS. B. TRIMBLE.
