Abstract: A can lid remover comprises a pair of mutually expandable wedge members (17, 23) which may be driven in between an outer peripheral flange (49) of a can and an outer peripheral flange (48) of a lid in adjacent initial positions in which they are located side by side in a common plane and which then may be moved to mutually expanded positions while lifting the lid flange (48) from the can flange (49).

Abstract: A device for use in connection with tapping off fluid from or filling fluid into a container through a hole (13) closable by a threaded cup-shaped plug (17). The device comprises a housing (10), mountable over the hole (13), and a tool (30) for manually handling the plug (17). The tool comprises a plug holder (34), including two movable gripping jaws (37) having gripping portions (38), insertable into a cavity (18) in the plug (17). The gripping jaws (37) are brought into contact with opposite portions of the side wall (20) of the cavity (18). In order to make it possible to use the tool (30) for handling plugs (17) having cavities (18) of considerable varying diameter, the gripping portions (38) of the gripping jaws (37) are arranged to be moved from rectracted inner end positions to expanded outer end positions through the action of spring forces applied from a spring (45) contained in the plug holder (34 ).

Abstract: A device for use in connection with tapping off fluid from or filling fluid into a container comprises a bell-like housing which is adapted to be removably mounted with an open end thereof over an internally threaded tapping or filling hole in a wall of the container and which is provided with an opening through which fluid may be fed into or discharged from the housing, and a tool for manually operating an externally threaded generally cup-shaped closing plug for said hole, from a position outside the housing. Said tool comprises a shaft which extends slidably and rotatably through a portion of the housing opposite to the open end of the housing, handle means provided at an outer end of said shaft.

Abstract: A device for use in connection with tapping off fluid from or filling fluid into a container through an internally threaded tapping or filling hole in the container provided with an externally threaded generally cup-shaped plug having an outwardly open cavity in which a tool may be inserted for rotating the plug. The device comprises a bell-like housing and a tool for manually operating the plug from a position outside the housing. The tool comprises a shaft which extends slidably and rotatably through a portion of the housing opposite to the open end of the housing and which is provided with a handle at its outer end and with a plug holding and operating means at its inner end. The latter means includes an expansion mechanism adapted to be expanded into contact under pressure with portions of the side wall of the cavity of the plug upon insertion of the plug holding and operating mechanism into the cavity.
