Abstract: A scraper apparatus, having a principal elongated housing; a handle member attached to a first end of the housing; a blade extending from the second end of the housing; a rod within the housing upon which the blade is mounted; a pneumatic power source for powering reciprocating movement of the rod means to impart reciprocating movement of the scraping blade; and a spring interconnecting the power source and the reciprocating rod to provide the reciprocating motion of the rod when power is applied thereto. The apparatus further comprises a support member along the length of the housing to magnetically secure the housing to a surface so that the weight of the apparatus is supported by the support member.

Abstract: A new, novel device for holding a container while applying torque specifically to the closure in the direction of opening. This device is readily adaptable for use with an electric motor or ratchet to provide hands free operation. The device may be made small enough to serve as a counter-top appliance for home use. In addition, the device is self sizing to serve a wide array of container closures.
