ABSTRACT:
An ampul opening device is disclosed which enables one to open a glass ampul in a safe and secure manner while minimizing fragmentation of the ampul during opening. The device features a one-piece body structure comprising an ampul holding member having a cylindrical configuration closed or partially closed at one end and having the opposite end open. Integrally attached to the open end is an arm being in line with the vertical axis of the holding member. The arm is of such length as to extend slightly beyond the removable end of the ampul. The upper region of the arm possesses sufficient flexibility to enable the operator to exert a force by means of one's thumb or thumbs to cause the neck of the ampul to fracture cleanly along a narrowly defined transverse fracture path.
