There is provided a mechanism for use in a can opener comprising a body; rotationally mounting to the body about a first axis, a drive wheel for engaging the rim of the can; rotationally mounting to the body about a second axis and drivably rotatable by the drive wheel, a cutter wheel; eccentrically mounting to the cutter wheel, a cutting knife movable on rotation of the cutter wheel to a cutting position in which the cutting knife forms a nip with the drive wheel such that the cutting knife penetrates through the cylindrical wall of the can, and in which an electrical sensor can be used to reverse the position of the cutting wheel back to a start position and in which a mechanical sensor can be used in conjunction with a locking bar to advance the cutting wheel back to a start position.

A can opener includes a housing, a driving gear, a reduction transmission device, a cutting wheel, a slide, an idling wheel, a first driven gear, a second driven gear, a torsion spring, a third driven gear, and a cam. The driving gear rotates the cutting wheel and the first driven gear. The first driven gear drives the second driven gear which rotates the third driven gear which rotates the cam which moves the slide which moves the idling wheel, so that the idling wheel is moved toward the cutting wheel to clamp the rim of the lid between the idling wheel and the cutting wheel. The idling wheel and the cutting wheel are moved along the rim of the lid to cut the rim of the lid and to separate the lid from the can to open the can automatically.

An easy to operate, extremely quiet, efficient can engagement and opening mechanism is provided for use in an opener for a can, and that provides a pair of missing teeth operating endpoints at opposite ends of its opener cycle, along with an eccentrically operating idler gear and cutter gear urging mechanism that produces a non-jamming foolproof mechanism that can be urged forward to a closed and operating position or reversed to a disengagement and non-operating position.

The invention provides an automatic bottle opening device used for an ampoule bottle dispensing robot. The automatic bottle opening device comprises a placing table, a rotating medicament tray rotationally arranged on the placing table, a cutting mechanism used for cutting ampoule bottle mouths and a breaking-off mechanism used for breaking off the ampoule bottle mouths; multiple clamping mechanisms used for clamping ampoule bottles are arranged on the periphery of the rotating medicament tray, and the ampoule bottles clamped by the clamping mechanisms rotate synchronously with the rotating medicament tray; the cutting mechanism comprises a tool wheel, a tool rest and a tool wheel drive component, the middle part of the tool rest is rotationally arranged on the placing table through a toolrest shaft, the tool wheel is located at the working end of the tool rest, the tool wheel drive component is located at the free end of the tool rest, and the drive component can drive the tool restto rotate around the tool rest shaft so as to adjust the position of the tool wheel; and the breaking-off mechanism comprises a breaking-off component, and the breaking-off component impacts a bottlehead of the cut ampoule bottle in the direction vertical to a notch of the cut ampoule bottle to break off the bottle head of the ampoule bottle. The automatic bottle opening device is compact in structure and can complete an automatic bottle opening process of the ampoule bottles automatically.

An electric can opener for opening a top of a metal can which includes a housing that has a top end and a front side. A can cutting mechanism is on the front side of the housing proximate the top end of the housing. A hand held jar grip is removably mounted on the top end of the housing. The top end of the housing includes a recess that receives an interior surface of the hand held jar grip.

The invention provides a cutting device used for an ampoule bottle dispensing robot. The cutting device comprises a storage table, a rotating medicine disc, a cutting mechanism used for cutting an ampoule bottle opening, and a power mechanism used for controlling a knife wheel driving part to drive a cutter wheel to rotate by an angle, the periphery of the rotating medicine disc is provided with multiple clamping mechanisms used for clamping ampoule bottles, the ampoule bottles clamped by the clamping mechanisms synchronously rotate along with the rotating medicine disc, the cutting mechanismcomprises the knife wheel, a knife rest and the knife wheel driving part, the middle of the knife rest is rotatably mounted on the storage table through a knife rest shaft, the knife wheel is locatedon the work end of the knife rest, the knife wheel driving part is located on the free end of the knife rest, the driving part can drive the knife rest to rotate around the knife rest shaft to adjustthe position of the knife wheel, the power mechanism drives the knife wheel to be located on the rotating path of the ampoule bottles clamped by the clamping mechanisms, in the rotating process of theampoule bottles, the knife wheel makes contact with the ampoule bottles to cut the necks of the ampoule bottles, the cutting device is compact in structure, and the dispensing process of the ampoulebottles can be automatically finished.

An apparatus and method are presented for removing container covers within a controlled environment enclosure without using gloves. The apparatus comprises an articulated arm apparatus and a gripping apparatus and can further comprise a controller. The articulated arm apparatus can be configurable for holding and moving a container in three dimensions; and the gripping apparatus can be configured for gripping a container cover sealing the container. The method comprises moving the container using the articulated arm apparatus while holding a gripping area of the container cover substantially stationary using the gripping apparatus. The apparatus can further comprise a sensor configured for supplying information to the controller for determining the location of the container cover gripping area and an orientation of the container cover. The method can further comprise inspecting the container cover using the sensor. The container can be moved along a path and within a space determined by the controller.
