An electric can opener with rotating spherical joint for removal a lid from a can is provided. The rotation of motorized driver in a helical cam moves readily a cutting blade toward a transport wheel to engage the end of the can, so that it is in the proper condition to cut end from the can. Further rotation of the transport wheel, forces the can against the blade to cut the end of the can.

An adjustable can opener includes a space adjustment assembly disposed between a main body and a washer set. The space adjustment assembly includes a retaining base coupled to the main body and an adjustment shifting block fitted on the retaining base. The retaining base has a stepped portion consisting of at least two steps. The adjustment shifting block also has a stepped portion consisting of at least two steps. Thereby, by rotating the adjustment shifting block, the position where one of steps of the adjustment shifting block is mated with a corresponding one of the steps of the retaining base may be changed to adjust the space between a traction wheel and a cutter wheel.

A can lid cutter is a can lid cutter that cuts a lid from a can by cutting a cylindrical raised portion of the outer periphery at the upper end of the can, the can lid cutter includes: a main body having a circular recessed portion formed in a circular shape for receiving the raised portion; a blade provided in the main body to cut the raised portion; an operation portion for pressing the blade toward the raised portion in a state where the main body is mounted on the can; and a tab holder that is provided inside the circular recessed portion and holds a stay-on-tab of the can in a state where the main body is mounted on the can.

A folding utility with a push button assisted-open mechanism is disclosed. The folding utility tool comprising a handle comprising at least two handle sides spaced apart and defining a tool cavity therebetween; a tool arm pivotally connected to the handle, wherein the tool arm comprises a drive pin connected to and extending out from a side of the tool arm; a toggle component pivotally connected to at least one of the at least two handle sides, wherein the toggle component comprises a retaining notch; and a spring comprising an arcuate segment along a longitudinal axis of the spring, wherein the spring is coupled to at least one of the at least two handle sides at one end and the toggle component at another end, wherein the drive pin is positioned within the retaining notch when at least part of the tool arm is folded into the tool cavity.

A power assist unit (70) to rotate the twist knob (50) of a typical manual can opener (20) includes a coupling head (72) that is rotated or powered by a hand-held power unit (74). The coupling head includes an elongated crossbar (76) connected at its center to a torque shaft (78) that projects outwardly from the head portion (80) of the power unit. Parallel engagement pins (82) project from the crossbar (76) to bear against opposite sides of the twist knob (50) for rotation of the twist knob.

Disclosed is axially-locking single-handle can opener, comprising a handle, a driving assembly and a cutting assembly, wherein a shaft sleeve, a hinge pin, a wedge sleeve and a wedge friction sheet, wherein one end of the driving gear rod is provided with a gear disc, and the other end extends outward through the handle; the wedge sleeve and the wedge friction sheet are sleeved on the extending section; a limiting hole is opened in the extending section, and the hinge pin is inserted into the limiting hole to limit the wedge friction sheet and the wedge sleeve; the shaft sleeve is sleeved on a middle portion of the driving gear rod, and is fixed with the handle; and a reset pressure spring is disposed between the shaft sleeve and the gear disc.

A folding knife with a push button assisted-open mechanism is disclosed. The folding knife comprising a handle with at least two handle sides spaced apart and defining a blade cavity; a blade pivotally connected to the handle, wherein the blade comprises a drive pin connected to and extending out from a side of the blade; a toggle component pivotally connected to at least one of the at least two handle sides at a pivot pin, wherein the toggle component comprises a retaining notch; and a spring comprising an arcuate segment along a longitudinal axis of the spring. The spring is coupled to at least one of the at least two handle sides at one end and the toggle component at another end, wherein the drive pin is positioned within the retaining notch when at least part of the blade is folded into the blade cavity.

Devices and methods for can opening and draining. In one example, the can opening and draining device includes a plunger with a lower section that extends from an upper body and a base with an opening. In the can opening and draining device, the lower section is configured to mate with the opening in the base and the base includes a blade which is coupled to an interior of the base. The base further includes a drain opening that extends through a wall of the base.

A multi-use tool, having a body having a first end and a second end, a tube defined by the body and having an outlet at the first end of the body, a receptacle defined by the body between the first end and the second end and coupled to the tube, a third tube at the first end defined by the body, a first tool at the first end, the first tool configured to connect and secure the multi-use tool to an ancillary item, and a second tool at the second end having a first tooth and a second tooth.

A container opener includes a base including a first semicircular portion: an arm including a second semicircular portion and in slidable communication with the base: a blade attached to the arm: wherein when the base and the arm are brought together the first and the second semicircular portions are configured to capture a container and the blade is pushed to contact an inner rim of the container.
