ABSTRACT:
To facilitate manufacture and eliminate the possibility of sharp corners projecting from metallic elements of a can opener, a bearing bushing (21) for a feed wheel shaft (20), to which a serrated feed wheel (15) and a twist knob (16) are connected, the handle is formed of two plastic handle shells (18, 19) of which an upper handle shell (18) is a unitary molded element together with the bearing bushing (21) and a counter or guide surface (24) in part surrounding the feed wheel. The bearing bushing extends through a hole in the metallic lever (11, 12) and into an opening of the lower handle shell (19), preferably forming a snap connection, with a slightly projecting shoulder, extending above the lower handle shell.
