Abstract (en)
[origin: WO03099671A1] An apparatus (10) for removing a stopper (12) from a bottle (14) by rotating a threaded capsule (16) surrounding the threaded neck of a bottle. The capsule is preferably received over a narrowed neck of the bottle (14) to maintain the appearance of a foil wrapped and cork-closed bottle. The bottle may be sealed with plugs (natural cork, synthetic cork, molded plugs), planar seals, or a combination thereof. The capsule (16) may engage the stopper directly or by way of a stopper anchor (22). Aspects of the invention include preventing uncontrolled egress of stoppers from pressurized bottles, the resealing of various forms of bottles after removal of the stopper, locking the closure in place, and providing evidence of tampering.
