ABSTRACT:
A container opener for use with a container top having a depressible closure member. A first member is connected to the container top adjacent the closure member. Movably connected to the first member is a second member which may be moved outwardly from the top of the can by pivoting or sliding such that a portion of the second member extends beyond the edge of the can. A fastener is provided which allows lateral movement of the second member with respect to the first member, but fixes upward movement of the second member with respect to the first member such that the first and second members move together when the second member is lifted, thereby increasing the available leverage for opening the can.
