Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tools for opening tobacco flavoring and fragrance containers, specifically to a simple container opener for plastic containers. Background Technology

[0002] In the production process of tobacco flavorings and fragrances, small-sized (1L to 5L) plastic buckets are usually used. These plastic buckets are generally used to hold tobacco flavorings, fragrances, and auxiliary materials. Before a brand new plastic bucket is used, the lid of the plastic bucket is connected with a plastic seal. When the lid with the plastic seal is closed on the plastic bucket containing tobacco flavorings, fragrances, and auxiliary materials, it can be sealed well to prevent the flavorings and fragrances from leaking out or overflowing.

[0003] When producing and using tobacco flavorings, fragrances, and additives in plastic containers, the container lid must be opened first. Opening the lid requires removing the plastic seal around the perimeter. Traditionally, this involves using a knife or flathead screwdriver to cut open the raised area (often shaped like a road sign arrow) at the very front of the seal. Then, using this raised area as a leverage point, the seal is torn off by hand. Finally, the container is opened by rotating the lid, or by forcefully pulling on the raised area of ​​the seal. While the raised area is an optimized leverage point, considerable force is still required to open the seal, and tearing it off by hand is time-consuming and laborious (those with less strength or women may not be able to tear it), especially in winter when sensitivity is reduced, and can easily injure the hands, causing inconvenience.

[0004] In view of this, how to design a new barrel-opening tool to eliminate the above-mentioned defects and deficiencies in the existing technology is an issue that relevant technical personnel in the tobacco flavoring and fragrance industry urgently need to solve. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of this, the technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a simple plastic bucket opener. In view of the fact that the existing plastic buckets are time-consuming, laborious and inconvenient to open, this utility model designs a simple plastic bucket opener that can open the bucket easily and effortlessly with a single tool. This reduces the shortcomings of opening the bucket by hand in the traditional way, reduces the workload of operators, improves work efficiency, and is simple to use, thereby solving the above problems.

[0006] The technical solution of this utility model to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows:

[0007] A simple plastic bucket opener includes: a handle and a pry bar arranged at an angle relative to the handle. One end of the pry bar is fixedly connected to the front end of the handle, and the other end of the pry bar is opened along its length to allow the pry bar to be locked onto the opening of the plastic seal and to fit into the protruding latch on the opening.

[0008] Based on the above technical solution, the present invention can be further improved as follows.

[0009] Furthermore, the angle between the pry bar and the handle is 20° to 45°.

[0010] Furthermore, the shape of the checkpoint is that of a road sign arrow, and the included angle of the V-shaped opening of the checkpoint is 10° to 40°.

[0011] Furthermore, the total extended length of the pry bar and handle is 16cm to 18cm, and the length ratio of the pry bar to the handle is 1:5 to 6.

[0012] Furthermore, the thickness of the pry bar and handle is 0.3cm to 0.5cm.

[0013] Furthermore, the pry bar and handle are made of stainless steel.

[0014] Furthermore, the pry bar and handle are made of SUS304, SUS316, or SUS316L.

[0015] Furthermore, the end of the handle has a hole, which can be round, oval, heart-shaped, or diamond-shaped.

[0016] Furthermore, the pry bar and handle are formed by bending the sheet material as a single piece.

[0017] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: by having the pry bar's latch engage with the opening of the plastic seal and fit the protrusion on the opening, with the curved part resting against the lid, and pressing down on the end of the handle, the lever principle makes it easier to open and tear open the lid's sealing strip. This achieves the function of opening and separating the plastic bucket's sealing strip using a single tool, making it simple and labor-saving to open the bucket. This reduces the shortcomings of opening the bucket by hand in traditional methods, lightens the workload of operators, improves work efficiency, and is also simple to use and easy to carry.
