ABSTRACT:
A press-like device, for the forcing of canning liquid from solid food in a can of a type having a lid arranged to be severed to effect the opening of the can, includes a first member having a convex part and a concave part, a lower surface of the convex part including a gripping unit and an aperture at a free end of the concave part, the first member including a slot at a region of transition between the convex and concave parts. The device further includes a lid engagement element, the same inclusive of a magnet, the lid engagement element dependent from a free end of the concave part of the member. The device further includes a second member having a concave part and a convex part, the second member pivotally secured to the first member at a fulcrum point passing through the slot of the first member and passing through a region of transition within the second member between the concave and convex parts thereof, the convex part including, at a free end, elements for locking within the aperture of the free end of the convex part at selectable distances between the respective free ends of the respective parts of the first and second members. The device yet further includes a can base element integrally dependent from a free end of the concave part of the second member of the device, the base element disposed oppositely to the lid engagement element.
