[0029] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The cap screwing device provided by the utility model comprises a fixer 1 and a handle 2, the fixer 1 comprises a clamping portion 12, the handle 2 and the fixer 1 are movably connected, one end of the handle 2 is a gripping portion 21, the other end is an abutting portion 22, the abutting portion 22 and the clamping portion 12 together enclose a space capable of accommodating a bottle cap, and the abutting portion 22 can move relative to the clamping portion 12, and the abutting portion 22 and the clamping portion 12 cooperate to clamp the side surface of the bottle cap.

[0030] Further, the fixer 1 comprises a bottom plate 11, the clamping portion 12 is circumferentially arranged along the edge of the bottom plate 11 and has an opening, and the abutting portion 22 is arranged at the opening. The top surface of the bottle cap is bonded to the bottom plate 11, so that the bottle cap can be better fixed.

[0031] In a specific embodiment, the clamping portion 12 comprises a first clamping portion 121 and a second clamping portion 122, the second clamping portion 122 is higher than the first clamping portion 121, the second clamping portion 122 is provided with a slot 15 near the opening of the bottom plate 11, one end of the handle 2 passes through the slot 15, and the handle 2 is rotatably connected to the fixer 1 at the slot 15, so that the handle 2 can rotate relative to the clamping portion 12 around the rotation shaft.

[0032] Taking the clockwise tightening and counterclockwise loosening of the bottle cap as an example, when the cap opening device is used to open the bottle cap, first, the handle 2 is rotated in the clockwise direction (in the counterclockwise direction in the middle) Figure 1 , the abutting portion 22 is opened, the bottle cap is covered with the fixer 1, the top surface of the bottle cap is attached to the bottom plate 11, and the bottle cap is located in the cavity surrounded by the abutting portion 22 and the fixer 1, then one hand holds the bottle to keep the bottle body still, and the other hand rotates the handle 2 in the counterclockwise direction (in the clockwise direction in the middle) Figure 1 ), the abutting portion 22 and the clamping portion 12 clamp the side surface of the bottle cap, at this time, the friction force generated between the bottle cap and the fixer 1 will keep the fixer 1 still with the bottle cap, so that the clamping effect is achieved, and the bottle cap is tightly locked in the fixer 1, and the handle 2 is continuously controlled in the same direction (counterclockwise direction), so that the cap opening device drives the bottle cap to rotate in the counterclockwise direction, and the bottle cap can be easily unscrewed by using the principle of lever.

[0033] In order to better fix the bottle cap, the abutting portion 22 and the clamping portion 12 are connected through the spring 3; the elastic force of the spring 3 can assist the cap opening device to fix the bottle cap in the cavity formed by the abutting portion 22 and the clamping portion 12, so as to ensure that the bottle cap and the fixer 1 and the handle 2 have at least three point contacts, thereby generating friction. Specifically, the handle 2 is connected with the fixer 1 at the slot 15 through the screw 4, and a lock nut is arranged on the other side of the bottom plate 11 to prevent the screw 4 from falling off, one end of the spring 3 is fixed on the abutting portion 22 of the handle 2 through the knurled nut 5, and the other end is fixed on the clamping portion 12 of the fixer 1 through the knurled nut 5.
