SPECIFICATION
This invention relates to the facilitation of removal of twist off battle caps
commonly used by many beverage manufacturers.
To remove bottle caps of this type, the consumer must use hislher hand and
fingers, which can sometimes be painful or difficult to remove. The person
must then
resort to finding and using a regular bottle opener or a separate twist off
cap removal
tool. With the "Bottle twist opener", the bottle opener is incorporated in the
glass at
the bottom or side of the bottle itself Therefore a person can simply twist
open the
cap with another bottle of the same type.
As shown in the drawing provided, the method used for removing the cap of a
bottle is by use of the opener (2), which is moulded into the glass at the
bottom or side
of the bottle ( 1 ). The mould is of the same shape and configuration as the
cap to be
removed but slightly larger to allow the bottle cap to be placed inside.
For easy and painless removal of a bottle cap, the consumer can simply place
the
mould from another bottle on the cap to be removed then twist in a counter
clockwise
rotation. The mould, which has the same ridges as the bottle cap will prevent
the cap
from turning with the bottle and consequently be removed.
