Simple device to open screw covers. Homemade screw caps opening tools for removing covers with glass cans

Hi to all lovers of homemade!

I must say that this article has caused great interest among readers. Someone liked this method, someone wrote in the comments, which has long been using this way, and someone, on the contrary, did not like this method.

But the main thing is, this topic caused almost a whole discussion. At the same time, many readers shared in the comments and other people's ways, with which you can open jars with screw lids, for which I am very grateful. It should be honest to note that I did not know about some such methods at all.

Nevertheless, since this topic almost never loses relevance, today I want to continue it, a description of the manufacture of a very simple opener for screw caps.



This idea arose with me almost by chance, when I got on my eyes. Here is such a long bolt M12 with a nut and wide washers.


From him, I decided to make a simple opening, and it took it literally a couple of minutes.

Materials and tools

So, for the manufacture of this opener, I needed:

Materials and fasteners

  • M12 bolt with a length of 160 mm, with a nut and two wide washers.
  • A small piece of dense and thick rubber.
  • Isol or suitable heat shrink tube.
Instruments:
  • Powerful scissors (you can use scissors for metal).
  • Stationery knife or scissors (optional).

Manufacturing opening

In fact, we already have almost everything necessary for the manufacture of the opener. The only thing we miss, these are two rubber washers, so as not to damage the lid when opening, as well as that the adhesion of the cover with the opening is better and more reliable.

Therefore, we will produce two rubber washers.
First, I cut out of rubber two squares suitable for the size of the washers.


Then in the center of each square, scissors cut the holes under the bolt.


And these holes, it is completely optional to do smooth. The main thing is that in the holes of rubber piles, the bolt loose freely, and the holes themselves may be uneven and cryvised.


Now it remains only to crop rubber washers on the diameter of steel washers, making them more or less round.



Well, now, you can finally collect our opening, putting the pucks on the bolt and then wielding a nut on it.


In order to when opening the covers, the tip of the bolt, which will serve us with the handle did not cut the hands, you can wind through its tape.


And here is our opener ready!

Testing openers

Now check our opening in the case.

First, open the jar with a screw lid of a small diameter. To do this, we assign our opening on top to the lid and crimp it with washers, tightly spinning the nut.




After that, applying some effort to the handle of our opener, turn the lid and remove it.


In this case, the lid is easily removed and remains sandwiched between the washers of the opener.


By the way, it should be noted here that when clamping the lid before opening it, the washers on the bolt, slightly flush, but it does not affect the result.


Similarly, I opened the covers of a larger diameter on two other banks. The covers also opened without any problems.



Disadvantages of the opener and how to fix them

In general, this opener turned out to be quite workable, but in the process of testing, two small drawbacks were revealed, which could be easily corrected.

Little hand

First, the handle in this opener turned out to be too short, which is especially affected by opening the lids of large diameter.


But this flaw will be easy to fixb if you take a bolt is authentic or generally use the segment of the threaded stud, about 200 mm long.

Use the desired nut

Secondly, when clamping the cover before opening it, it is enough to use a hex nut, since the force of the clamp created by the fingers is clearly not enough.


This disadvantage is also very easy to correct if instead of a hex nut to use a barish nut. I simply did not turn out to be at hand, although it can be easily bought in a shopping store (and you can try to make homemade).

Well, in general, it is quite possible to use this openwall. Her great dignity is that it can be very easily and quickly done. In addition, if this opener becomes not needed, it can be quickly disassembled, and use a bolt with nut and washers to use for another purpose (in other homemade or in construction work in an apartment or in the country).

Well, on this I have everything! So far and good luck in the manufacture of homemade!
