ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is apparatus for forming an opening in a sealed container. A score or weakening groove is formed in the container end to define a tab which includes a raised boss. An opening bar movable with respect to the container but affixed thereto is moved over the container end to contact the raised boss. The tab is thus depressed into the container and severed along the weakening groove to form an opening. The opening bar is positioned over the tab during shipment and during the initial opening procedure to protect the tab during shipment and to protect the user from the contents of the container during the initial opening procedure.
