SPBCIPICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 388,888, dated September 4, 1888.
Application tiled March 19. 1886. Serial No. 195,852. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that we, NEWTON LINSLEY and ARTHUR B. CURTIS, both residents of Freeport, in the county of Stephenson and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Cork-Extractors; and we do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention,such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it pertains to make and use the same.
Our invention relates to improvements in cork-extractors, and particularly to means for automatically removing the drawn cork from the corkscrew, and for gradually applying the drawing force to the cork in those extractors with which the cork is removed by the rotation of the corkscrew.
This specification refers by letters to the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure l is a side elevation of an extractor involving our improvements; Fig.2, a section on the line a; y, Fig. 1, looking in the direction of the arrow a; Fig. 8, a view partly in section, partly in plan, section being made on the line 90 1/, Fig. l, and the upper part of the extractor removed.
In the drawings, A, Fig. 1, is the edge of a counter or other suitable support to which the extractor is attached. I is a plate attached rigidly to said support; J, an ordinary ring, formed integrally with the plate I, for receiving the mouth of the bottle; B, a standard supporting the bearing 0 of the corkscrewshai't D; E F, a crank rigidly attached to the upper extremity of the shaft D, and G a spring coiled loosely about the shaft D and tending to maintain the distance shown between the parts F and G.
The parts 0 B J I are formed integrally or rigidly connected, and the shaft D of the corkscrew K rotates and slides longitudinally in the bearing 0.
The form of the parts F D O J is further illustrated in Fig. 2, which also shows the screw K inserted in a cork, L, to be drawn from the bottle M.
That part of the corkscrew which is shown in Fig. l as below the upper surface of the stop J is of ordinary form and size, but from this plane upward the screw is enlarged and all its parts preferably thickened, so that it may require a much larger space in the cork. Now, owing to this thickening and enlargement of the screw, the cork when it passes upward is ruptured by pressure from the middle outward. The edge H of the standard B projects slightly over the aperture in the stop J, and by pressing against the rising cork prevents its rotation. The spring G facilitates the pulling of many corks by causing the gradual application of the upward strain thereon,and corks from which the screw would otherwise be torn are readilylifted from the bottle. A small downwardly inclined steel point, 0, rigidly inserted in the standard B, serves for removing wires from the bottles. A curve in the standard B and upper surface of the 7 plate I conforms approximately to the exterior of an ordinary bottle-mouth, and by means of a thickening of the plate I this curve is continued to form nearly a half-circle. By this means the reaction of the point 0 against the wire to be torn off is taken up by the curve, and the hand need only sustain the weight of the body of the bottle and apply torsional force sufficient to remove the wire.
Having described and explained our invention, what we claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent is- The combination of the stationary wire-removing hook c and the curved rigid bottlerest P, whereby simply rotating the bottleneck while in the rest removes any number of wires from the cork.
In testimony whereof we have signed this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
