The Hinged-Hook Can Opener: A Lever That Hooks Under the Far Side

The cover of a Lyman fruit can is hard to lift, and devices to ease it were not purely mechanical. S. O. Church of West Meriden, Connecticut, received US 61,161, dated 15 January 1867, for a can opener made of "a peculiarly formed lever": one end turned down and spread as a fulcrum on the cover's flange, the other a handle, and between them a hinged hook that takes the flange on the opposite side, set by a thumb on its arm, so that raising the handle draws the cover off. This rung works out the pull on the flange, then builds the lever and hook from flat bar and lifts a sealed jar lid with it.

The sealed can before it

The embedded blueprint seals food by heat. Church's lever opens a sealed cover without prising at it.

Read US 61,161

"My invention, which fully overcomes the difficulty, is purely mechanical, and consists in a peculiarly formed lever, constructed so that one end forms the fulcrum to bear upon the upper side of the flange of the cover, while the other end forms a handle, and between which and the fulcrum is hinged a hook which takes hold beneath the flange of the cover upon the opposite side to the fulcrum, so that by raising the handle the cover is easily removed from the can."

Make the lever

Cut 200 mm of 25 × 3 mm flat bar. Bend the last 25 mm down at right angles and screw a 40 mm cross-piece of the bar under it: the spread fulcrum.

Seal a jar and lift its lid

Fill a Mason jar with water from the kettle at the boil, put on a new flat lid, screw the band on and let it cool for two hours so the lid pulls down. Then remove the band. Rest the fulcrum on one side of the lid, thumb the hook under the opposite edge, and lift the handle with the force meter; note the force.

History and honest limits

**S. O. Church** of West Meriden, Connecticut, assignor to himself and S. S. Wilcox, received US 61,161, dated 15 January 1867. It was designed for the "Lyman Patent Fruit Can" but applies to other cans of similar construction. The hook is spread and curved, with a flange projecting inward; it uses the flange that is formed on the cover's lower edge when the cover is "struck up." His claim covers the lever with its fulcrum, the hook and the handle. **Honest limits.** A Mason jar's flat lid stands in for Lyman's cover, and screws for his pivot. Your forces are the result.
