Mains. PHoTmLITHOGRAPM'ER. WASHINGTON o c UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
WILLIAM ENGELSDORFF, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS IMPROVEMENT m CORKSCREWS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 172,104, dated January 11,1876; application filed June 3, 1875.
mation of the implement, as will be more fully hereinafter set forth. 1 Figure l is a perspective view. Fig. 2 is a cross-section at aw.
In the drawing, A represents a tapered stock, of metal, having at its upper and larger end a T'handle, B, and terminating at the lower end in a lateral blade, 00, having a convex lower edge, and curved to a segment of a circle, to conform to the walls of the neck of the bottle; it is bent slightly outward, so as to cause the point to slide 'in contact with the bottle when inserted and pushed down between it and the cork, so as not to catch against the latter. At the upper edge there is an upward-projecting spur, b, to catch and engage with the lower end of the cork, and retain it on the instrument after it is extracted, instead of allowing it to fall to the floor, after the'instrnment has been inserted, as described, until the blade is below the lower end of the cork, when a quarter-turn'of the handle will bring the blade under the cork, which is then easily drawn by an upward pull.
I am aware of Patent No. 59,241, granted to Karl Loeffler, October 30, 1866, and disclaim the same as making any part of my invention.
What I claim as my invention is- In a cork-extractor having a tapered stock and a segment-shaped lateral blade, the lat eral blade at, having a convex lower edge bent outwardly, and the spur b,substantially as described, for the purpose set forth,
WILLIAM ENGELSDORFF.
