CORKSCREW.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 280,697, dated July 3, 1883,
7 Application filed May 18, 1883. (No model.) 7
To aZZ whom it may concern Be it known that I, JosEPH NV. NVHITE, of Brighton, in the county of \Vashington and State of Iowa, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Corkscrews, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the annexed drawings, forming part of this specification.
My invention relates to the combination of a corkscrew and lever for. the easy and speedy extraction of corks from bottles, decanters, (lemijohns, flasks, and jugs.
In the drawings, Figure 1 shows a side elevation of my invention, partly broken away 5 and Fig. 2 is a detail.
A indicates the lever, having a slot, B, in one end, in which the corkscrew O is supported by means of the swivel D. This lever is pivoted at a point near the screw in a slotted standard, E, which is provided with a collarshaped base, F, adapted to fit over the neck of 'a bottle.
To adapt the device for use onbottles having necks of different lengths, the standard is provided with a series of perforations, G, .for the pivot of the lever, which is to be a screw capable of being easily removed from one adj ustment to another. H is a handle for operating the screw in inserting it into a cork.
The handle portion of the lever is provided with a blade, I, for cutting wire from the corks of bottles.
In operating the device the collar is to be adjusted over the neck of a bottle, and the lever is to be adjusted so that the screw can be driven into the cork. Then the operator will hold the standard and neck of the bottlesteadily with one hand, while he depresses the ham dle of the lever, and thus extracts the cork.
WVhat I claim is 1. The combination, with a corkscrew, of a lever adapted to lift the screw when the latter has been inserted intoa cork in a bottle, substantially as shown and described.
2. The combination, with a corkscrew, of a lever, and a swivel supported in the lever for carrying the screw, substantially as shown and described.
3. The combination of the corkscrew, the lever, and the standard having the collarshaped base adapted to be fitted over the neck of a bottle, substantially as shown and described.
4. The combination of the corkscrew, the lever, and the standard having a slot for receiving the lever, and a series of perforations for adjusting the lever higher or lower, ac cording to the length of the bottle-neck, substantially as shown and described.
5. The lever having a slot in one end for supporting the corkscrew, and a blade at the other end for cutting wire from the corks of bottles, substantially as shown and described.
