DESCRIPCIÓNDESCRIPTION
OBJETO DE LA INVENCIÓNOBJECT OF THE INVENTION
La presente invención se refiere, como su título indica, a un sacacorchos perfeccionado del tipo sobre el que se comprenden un cuerpo principal sobre el que se encuentran montados, mediante los correspondientes ejes de giro, un punzón helicoidal destinado a introducirse en el tapón a extraer, un brazo de apoyo destinado a contactar con su extremo sobre el gollete de la botella conformando un punto de apoyo y una hoja de corte para el descapsulado de botellas.The present invention refers, as its title indicates, to an improved corkscrew of the type on which a main body on which, by means of the corresponding rotation axes, a helical punch intended to be inserted into the plug to be removed is mounted , a support arm intended to contact its end on the neck of the bottle forming a support point and a cutting blade for decapsulating bottles.
ANTECEDENTES DE LA INVENCIÓN.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
En la actualidad son ampliamente conocidos los sacacorchos provistos de un cuerpo principal sobre el que se encuentran montados con posibilidad de giro un punzón helicoidal y un brazo conformante de un punto de apoyo sobre la botella durante la extracción del tapón.Nowadays, corkscrews with a main body on which a helical punch and a conforming arm of a support point on the bottle during the removal of the cap are mounted are widely known.
Generalmente, los ejes de giro del brazo de apoyo y del tirabuzón se encuentran dispuestos a una distancia reducida, aproximadamente de unos 25 mm., con el fin de conseguir un efecto multiplicador de la fuerza aplicada por el usuario sobre el extremo posterior del cuerpo principal durante la utilización del mismo.Generally, the axes of rotation of the support arm and the rivet are arranged at a reduced distance, approximately 25 mm., In order to achieve a multiplier effect of the force applied by the user on the rear end of the main body while using it.
Está proximidad de los ejes plantea sin embargo un problema consistente en la limitación del recorrido del punzón helicoidal durante el accionamiento del sacacorchos, lo que impide que el tapón pueda ser extraído en su totalidad mediante el accionamiento del sacacorchos, siendo preciso realizar la extracción del mismo mediante tracción manual. Para resolver estos problemas se han ideado diferentes sacacorchos en los que el brazo de apoyo presenta dos zonas diferenciadas para el apoyo sobre el gollete de la botella, lo que permite la extracción de la totalidad del tapón en dos tiempos, pero siempre mediante la utilización del sacacorchos.This proximity of the axes, however, poses a problem consisting in limiting the travel of the helical punch during the operation of the corkscrew, which prevents the cap from being fully removed by actuating the corkscrew, being necessary to remove it. by manual traction. To solve these problems, different corkscrews have been devised in which the support arm has two different areas for support on the neck of the bottle, which allows the removal of the entire cap in two stages, but always by using the corkscrew.
Con estos sacacorchos se realiza la extracción de una parte del tapón apoyando el brazo por medio de un escalón definido en su zona intermedia sobre el gollete de la botella, para realizar posteriormente la extracción del resto del tapón mediante el apoyo de un escalón definido en el extremo anterior del brazo sobre el gollete de la botella. Estos sacacorchos suponen una ventaja respecto a los mencionados anteriormente ya que mediante su utilización se puede extraer en dos tiempos la totalidad del tapón, presentando sin embargo una mayor complicación en su utilización ya que el brazo de apoyo se debe de posicionar dos veces sobre la botella para variar la longitud del punto de apoyo conformado por el mismo.With these corkscrews, a part of the cap is removed by supporting the arm by means of a defined step in its intermediate area on the neck of the bottle, to subsequently carry out the rest of the cap by supporting a step defined in the front end of the arm on the bottle neck. These corkscrews represent an advantage over the aforementioned ones, since through their use the entire cap can be removed in two stages, however presenting a greater complication in its use since the support arm must be positioned twice on the bottle to vary the length of the support point formed by it.
Otra característica de la invención es el hecho de que en cualquier lugar apropiado para el mismo incorpora una especie de pinza, materializada en un brazo, convenientemente solidarizado al cuerpo del sacacorchos, que incluso puede ser monopieza con el mismo, específicamente en el caso de sacacorchos con su cuerpo de plástico, pinza que permite una fácil fijación del conjunto por ejemplo, a un cinturón de vestir o a cualquier otra parte adecuada de la vestimenta del operario.Another feature of the invention is the fact that in any place suitable for it incorporates a kind of clamp, materialized in an arm, conveniently in solidarity with the body of the corkscrew, which can even be single-piece with it, specifically in the case of corkscrews. With its plastic body, a clamp that allows an easy fixation of the set, for example, to a dress belt or any other suitable part of the operator's clothing.
Por su propio sistema de fijación el sacacorchos resulta fácilmente implantable sobre el cuerpo del usuario y resulta también fácilmente desacoplable, con una maniobra prácticamente instantánea, en el momento en que se requiera de su utilización.By its own fixing system the corkscrew is easily implantable on the user's body and is also easily decoupled, with a practically instantaneous maneuver, at the moment when its use is required.
DESCRIPCIÓN DE LA INVENCIÓNDESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
El sacacorchos perfeccionado, objeto de esta invención, siendo del tipo del los mencionados anteriormente, es decir que presentan un cuerpo principal sobre el que se encuentran montados con posibilidad de giro un brazo de apoyo sobre el gollete de la botella y un punzón helicoidal, presenta unas particularidades constructivas orientadas a permitir la extracción de la totalidad del tapón mediante un único accionamiento del sacacorchos y con la realización de un esfuerzo reducido por parte del usuario.The improved corkscrew, object of this invention, being of the type of those mentioned above, that is to say that they have a main body on which a support arm is mounted with the possibility of turning on the neck of the bottle and a helical punch, it has constructive peculiarities oriented to allow the extraction of the entire cap by means of a single corkscrew drive and with a reduced effort on the part of the user.
De acuerdo con la invención, sobre el cuerpo principal del sacacorchos se encuentra montada una pieza extensible que, en posición desplegada, conforma una prolongación para el agarre y el accionamiento del sacacorchos, incrementando el brazo de palanca de la fuerza aplicada por el usuario.In accordance with the invention, on the main body of the corkscrew an extendable part is mounted which, in an unfolded position, forms an extension for the grip and the operation of the corkscrew, increasing the lever arm of the force applied by the user.
Esta prolongación permite que el usuario aplique la fuerza necesaria para el accionamiento del sacacorchos con un brazo de palanca de mayor longitud que la de los sacacorchos convencionales, siendo necesario por tanto aplicar una fuerza menor para conseguir la extracción del tapón.This extension allows the user to apply the force necessary for the operation of the corkscrew with a lever arm of greater length than that of the conventional corkscrews, therefore it is necessary to apply a lower force to achieve the removal of the cap.
Otra de las particularidades de la invención consiste en que entre los ejes de giro del brazo de apoyo y del punzón helicoidal hay una distancia comprendida entre 3 y 4 cm., siendo superior a la de los sacacorchos convencionales. Esta distancia entre los ejes de giro del brazo de apoyo y del punzón helicoidal permite que mediante un único accionamiento del sacacorchos el punzón describa un recorrido de longitud suficiente para conseguir la extracción de la totalidad del tapón.Another of the peculiarities of the invention is that there is a distance between 3 and 4 cm between the pivot axes of the support arm and the helical punch, being greater than that of conventional corkscrews. This distance between the axes of rotation of the support arm and the helical punch allows the punch to describe the stroke of a length of sufficient length to achieve the removal of the entire plug.
Según la invención, la pieza extensible mencionada anteriormente puede encontrarse montada sobre el extremo posterior del cuerpo principal de forma telescópica o mediante un eje de giro. En el caso de que la pieza extensible se encuentre montada de forma telescópica sobre el cuerpo principal, se ha previsto que dichos elementos, es decir, la pieza extensible y el cuerpo principal presenten en las superficies enfrentadas rebajes y relieves distanciados longitudinalmente y destinados a acoplarse entre sí, definiendo en las posiciones de acoplamiento diferentes puntos de retención permiten que el usuario pueda disponer la pieza extensible en una posición más o menos sobresaliente respecto al cuerpo principal, reduciendo en mayor o menor medida la fuerza a aplicar para conseguir la extracción del tapón.According to the invention, the extendable part mentioned above can be mounted on the rear end of the main body telescopically or by means of a rotation axis. In the event that the extendable part is mounted telescopically on the main body, it is provided that said elements, that is, the extendable part and the main body present in the surfaces facing recesses and reliefs longitudinally spaced and intended to engage with each other, defining different retention points in the coupling positions allow the user to arrange the extendable piece in a more or less prominent position with respect to the main body, reducing in greater or less force to apply to get the cap removed.
En este caso la pieza extensible presenta una pestaña que se aloja en una ranura longitudinal definida en el cuerpo principal, delimitando dicha pestaña el desplazamiento longitudinal de la pieza extensible respecto al cuerpo principal.In this case, the extensible piece has a flange that is housed in a longitudinal groove defined in the main body, said flange delimiting the longitudinal displacement of the extensible piece with respect to the main body.
Opcionalmente, como se ha mencionado anteriormente la pieza extensible puede encontrarse montada sobre el extremo posterior del cuerpo principal mediante un eje de giro, disponiendo en este caso la pieza extensible y el cuerpo principal de unos medios de tope que limitan el giro de la pieza extensible respecto al cuerpo principal cuando dicha pieza alcanza la posición desplegada o de uso.Optionally, as mentioned above, the extendable part can be mounted on the rear end of the main body by means of a rotation axis, in which case the extendable part and the main body are provided with stop means which limit the rotation of the extendable part. with respect to the main body when said piece reaches the deployed or use position.

REALIZACIÓN PREFERENTE DE LA INVENCIÓNPREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION
Como se puede observar en las figuras referenciadas el sacacorchos perfeccionado que nos ocupa presenta un cuerpo principal (1) sobre el que se encuentran montados un punzón (2), un brazo de apoyo (3) y una hoja cortante (4) por medio de los correspondientes ejes de giro (21, 31 y 41).As can be seen in the referenced figures, the improved corkscrew that occupies us has a main body (1) on which a punch (2), a support arm (3) and a cutting blade (4) are mounted by means of the corresponding axes of rotation (21, 31 and 41).
El brazo de apoyo (3) presenta en su cara exterior un rebaje (32) para la extracción de tapones tipo corona y en su extremo un escalón (33) para el apoyo del mismo sobre el gollete de la botella (5) a descorchar.The support arm (3) has on its outer face a recess (32) for the extraction of crown-type caps and at its end a step (33) for the support thereof on the neck of the bottle (5) to be uncorked.
Una de las particularidades de la invención consiste en que la distancia existente entre los ejes (21) y (31), referenciada en la figura 2 como "d", se encuentra comprendida entre 3 y 4 cm. En los ejemplos de realización mostrados en las figuras 1, 2 y 3 el cuerpo principal está provisto de una pieza extensible (6) que se encuentra montada a modo de corredera sobre el cuerpo principal (1) permitiendo el desplegado telescópico de la misma. Esta pieza extensible (6) tiene la finalidad de incrementar la longitud del cuerpo principal (1) y consiguientemente el brazo de palanca del que dispondrá el usuario para aplicar la fuerza necesaria durante el accionamiento del sacacorchos.One of the peculiarities of the invention is that the distance between the axes (21) and (31), referred to in Figure 2 as "d", is between 3 and 4 cm. In the exemplary embodiments shown in Figures 1, 2 and 3, the main body is provided with an extendable piece (6) that is mounted as a slide on the main body (1) allowing telescopic deployment thereof. This extensible part (6) has the purpose of increasing the length of the main body (1) and consequently the lever arm that the user will have to apply the necessary force during the operation of the corkscrew.
La pieza extensible (6) y el cuerpo principal (1) presentan en las superficies enfrentadas un relieve interior (61) y unos rebajes (11) distanciados longitudinalmente y acoplables entre sí, definiendo en las sucesivas posiciones de acoplamiento diferentes puntos de retención de la pieza extensible (6) respecto al cuerpo principal (1).The extendable part (6) and the main body (1) have on the opposite surfaces an internal relief (61) and recesses (11) longitudinally spaced apart and interconnected, defining in different coupling positions different retention points of the extendable piece (6) with respect to the main body (1).
Para limitar el desplazamiento de la pieza extensible (6) respecto al cuerpo principal (1) se ha previsto que éste disponga de una ranura longitudinal (12) en la que se aloja una pestaña (62) definida en la pieza extensible (6). Por tanto, el recorrido de la pieza extensible (6) respecto al cuerpo principal (1) se encuentra delimitado por el contacto de la pestaña (62) contra los extremos de la ranura (12) del cuerpo principal (1).To limit the displacement of the extensible part (6) with respect to the main body (1), it is provided that it has a longitudinal groove (12) in which a flange (62) defined in the extendable part (6) is housed. Therefore, the path of the extensible part (6) with respect to the main body (1) is delimited by the contact of the flange (62) against the ends of the groove (12) of the main body (1).
Como se puede observar en el ejemplo de realización mostrado en la figura 4, la pieza extensible (6') puede encontrarse montada sobre el extremo posterior del cuerpo principal (1) con posibilidad de giro, por medio de un eje (7), en vez de encontrarse montada sobre el cuerpo principal a modo de corredera como ocurría con la pieza extensible (6).As can be seen in the example of embodiment shown in Figure 4, the extensible part (6 ') can be mounted on the rear end of the main body (1) with the possibility of rotation, by means of an axis (7), in instead of being mounted on the main body as a slide as was the case with the extendable part (6).
En este caso la pieza extensible (6') tiene la misma función que la descrita anteriormente, presentando el cuerpo principal (1) y la pieza extensible (6') unas superficies (13) y (8) que contactan frontalmente, limitando el giro de la pieza extensible (6') cuando ésta alcanza la posición desplegada o de uso, representada en la figura 4 con línea de trazos.In this case, the extendable part (6 ') has the same function as described above, with the main body (1) and the extendable part (6') having surfaces (13) and (8) that contact frontally, limiting the rotation Of the piece Extensible (6 ') when it reaches the deployed or use position, shown in Figure 4 with dashed line.
Otra de las características de la invención, consiste en dotar al sacacorchos en cualquier lugar apropiado para el mismo, de una sujeción convenientemente solidarizada al cuerpo del sacacorchos, de manera que entre ambos elementos se define una ranura (35), especialmente visible en su figura 7, que permite la fijación de tal conjunto a un soporte adecuado dentro de la vestimenta de un camarero o similar.Another feature of the invention is to provide the corkscrew in any suitable place for it, a suitably attached to the body of the corkscrew, so that between both elements a groove (35) is defined, especially visible in its figure 7, which allows the fixing of such a set to a suitable support within the clothing of a waiter or the like.
Esta pinza (34) puede ser de cualquier naturaleza, tanto metálica como plástica, y puede estar fijada por cualquier medio al cuerpo (3), como por ejemplo mediante soldadura, remachado, etc., pudiendo incluso ser monopieza con dicho cuerpoThis clip (34) can be of any nature, both metallic and plastic, and can be fixed by any means to the body (3), such as by welding, riveting, etc., and can even be single piece with said body
(3), especialmente cuando éste último sea de naturaleza plástica y, consecuentemente lo sea también la propia pinza (34)(3), especially when the latter is of a plastic nature and, consequently, the clamp itself (34)
Una vez descrita suficientemente la naturaleza de la invención, así como un ejemplo de realización preferente, se hace constar a los efectos oportunos que los materiales, forma, tamaño y disposición de los elementos descritos podrán ser modificados, siempre y cuando ello no suponga una alteración de las características esenciales de la invención que se reivindican a continuación. Once the nature of the invention has been sufficiently described, as well as an example of a preferred embodiment, it is stated to the appropriate effects that the materials, shape, size and arrangement of the described elements may be modified, provided that this does not imply an alteration of the essential features of the invention that are claimed below.
