ABSTRACT:
A kitchen utensil molded of rubber or flexible synthetic plastic which has a centrally disposed, stepped, hollow frustro-conical jar cap remover that is readily gripped in the palm of the hand, surrounded by a radially disposed, planar flange, the surface of which on the side of the hollow is roughened or otherwise formed for soft abrasive action. The stepped frusto-conical portion can receive different size jar caps and has axially disposed ribs on the cylindrical walls of the step portions for frictionally engaging the rim of a jar cap to facilitate its removal. The frustro-conical portions are capable of nesting with each other in spaced relation so that a plurality of the devices may be gripped and handled simultaneously. In this manner, the utensil may be used as a pot holder with the conical portions preventing slippage between a plurality of the devices and also providing air spaces between the devices for insulating purposes. The roughened flange surface may be used for scrubbing pots or pans especially of the type having linings of Teflon or enamel that may easily be scratched by other types of scrubbers. Finally, the device may be used as a stopper for drain outlets such as in sinks and tubs.
