Abstract: The subject matter of the present disclosure relates, in various embodiments, to a wine key comprising a head assembly and a handle assembly. The head assembly may comprise a unique configuration suited for affixing and using a twin neckstand assembly, a foil cutter disk, a spring, and a helical extractor. The twin neckstand assembly may comprise fulcrum notches for providing leverage against a bottle rim to enhance the effectiveness of extracting a cork stopper from the bottle. As well, the twin neckstand assembly may comprise cap reliefs and cap hooks for providing leverage against a bottle cap edge, so as to enhance the effectiveness of its removal. The handle assembly may comprise a multi-part structure, comprising a handle, an offset tube, a central rod, and an end cap. In some embodiments, the handle may be provided in cylindrical-shaped form that can be turned on a lathe by a Do-It-Yourself woodworker.
Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments of an apparatus in the shape of a bullet for opening corked and capped bottles and methods of doing the same.
Abstract: A movable outer cylindrical member and a movable inner cylindrical member are arranged vertically movably in a lower half of a cylindrical main body. By placing the movable inner cylindrical member on a bottle mouth and pushing down the cylindrical main body, a lower end of a hooking member is engaged with a lower end of the crown cap to pry the crown cap away. At the same time, the movable outer cylindrical member is moved up and a piston inside a cylinder arranged in an upper half of the cylindrical main body is moved up with the movable outer cylindrical member, so that the air in the cylinder is compressed, and a cover member is brought out in by the compressed air.
Abstract: Bottle opening device, particularly for cutting the capsule covering the stopper of a bottle, comprising a shaft provided with a threaded portion and, above, with a widened portion that has a hole in it. The widened portion comprises two plates which are provided internally with mutually aligned openings for the transversal insertion of a stopper. The plates are spaced apart so as to define a space for accommodating a supporting body which is provided with at least one cutting element.
Abstract: A multi-purpose tool includes a tool handle and any combination of a bottle opener, a corkscrew, a zester, a lemon/lime peeler, a cutting blade and a wine bottle opener provided on the tool handle.
Abstract: The invention provides a pocket hand corkscrew having an operating lever with a bottom and two flanges, attached to a channel-like guideway which may pivot from a position wherein it is applied against the bottom. A slide member may slide along the guideway, is attached to a helical corkscrew member and has teeth. A dog rotatably attached to the lever may engage the teeth when the lever is operated, providing smooth, comfortable movement of the slide member and consequently of the helical screw member previously driven into a stopper.
Abstract: Corkscrew of the type having folding tools (2,3) in a handle (4), such as a screw-type means of insertion in a cork (2) and a fulcrum lever extension means such as counter-lever (3) having a slot seat for crown caps as well, and the additional function of supporting by a notched end on the inside ledge of the bottle's neck together with said means of screw insertion (2), both hinged to one end of the handle at a convenient distance from each other, characterized in that:the handle (4) is in plastic material, andthe fulcrum lever extension means such as counter-lever (3) is of a semitubular form having a slot seat (3") through its back with an undercut to engage a crown cap, and the handle (4) being equipped with a hollow complementary with the slot so as to make it actively usable whether the counter-lever is closed or is completely open in alignment, or nearly so, with the handle (4).
Abstract: A corkscrew is combined with a flat elongated handle. Two extraction levers are pivoted to one end of the handle. Each lever has a notch for resting on the bottle neck to help extract corks.
