ABSTRACT:
A device for removing a cap from a container. The main components include an upper disc, a lower disc and a means for removably attaching the lower disc to the cap of the container. The upper disc has an aperture centrally located therein and a first pin protruding therefrom, and the lower disc has a slot therein and a second pin centrally located protruding therefrom. When the second pin of the lower disc is inserted in the aperture of the upper disc, the first pin of the upper disc is inserted into and is capable of freely rotating through the slot in the lower disc. When the device is attached to a container cap and the upper disc is manually actuated, the first pin freely rotates through the slot until it reaches the end of the slot and contacts a portion of the lower disc and exerts a force on the lower disc. This force in turn exerts a force on the attachment means and on the cap, thus removing the cap.
