    Abstract: A hand tool is provided for removing twist-off, pry-off, and tabbed container tops. The tool comprises a first and second arm member in hinged connection to one another about a hinge pin. Each of the arm members includes a rounded portion and a handle portion, whereby the upper ends of the rounded portions are connected together at the hinge pin. The rounded portions form a rounded opening adapted to receive a bottle cap therein, whereby the handle portions are gripped together to compress the rounded portions against the cap. Along one or more of the handle portions is a bottle cap pry bar member, and along the distal end of one of the handles is a tab blade pry tool. Within the interior of the rounded portions may further be blade members to grip the outer surfaces of the bottle cap placed therein or to function as a pry tool.

  • Publication number: 20150259892
    Abstract: A sink drain utensil catch is provided that is adapted to organize utensil items while cleaning dishes. The device comprises an elongated body structure and an upper flange portion. The body structure comprises a sidewall having a substantially cylindrical profile and a closed lower end. Perforations through the sidewall allow for water to drain therethrough, while the interior is open to accept utensil items therein in a substantially upright manner. The upper flange portion comprises a surface that flares outward and includes an upper rim. The flange portion bears against the sink drain periphery to support the assembly in the sink drain, while one or more notches in the upper rim allow water to bypass the assembly and enter into the sink drain interior when the assembly is deployed. Overall, the device supports utensil items to avoid cuts and jabs from pointed utensil items loosely positioned in the sink water.
