Abstract:
A device to automatically remove, at least partially, a cork having a defined length from a bottle, comprising:a first screw able to penetrate a determined amount into the cork;rotation means associated to said first screw to make said first screw selectively rotate and penetrate into the cork;manually operable regulation means associated to said rotation means for defining said determined a mount of penetration of said first screw into the cork, according to the length of the cork in such a manner that the determined amount is less than the defined length of the cork, for avoiding that the cork is completely perforated by said first screw; andextraction means connected to said first screw for causing the axial movement of said first screw and of the cork associated thereto from the bottle;wherein said manually operable regulation means are also able to be set for obtaining an axial displacement of the cork from the bottle which amount is less than said defined length of the cork.
