Patent ID: 8479343

Claim:
A compact, portable, self adjusting, foldable mechanism which can with one hand be inserted and rotated within an extensive plurality of sized and shaped containers including non-cylindrical containers and those with narrow necks that applies continuous symmetrical pressure to the inside surfaces of said containers allowing the easy extraction of materials within said container for use, comprised of: two lower arms each mechanically attached by a pinned connection at the top end of each arm to the lower end of a drive arm, while still being able to rotate freely in relationship to said drive arm, and engaged with one another with a geared end such that the two said lower arms rotate symmetrically in relationship to said drive arm, a double torsion spring, installed concentric to the pivot points of said lower arms, and hooked onto the side of said arm which applies symmetrical pressure to rotate the lower ends of said lower arms towards said upper arm, which as said arms are rotated away from said drive arm, results in added resistance to rotation the further you rotate it, which translates into applying pressure to the inside surface of said container within which said lower arms are released onto, swiveling attachment receivers at the opposite end to the hinge of both of said two lower arms, which are connected to said arms with a hinge pin at the far end and a spring at the upper end such that said swiveling attachment receivers swing off of said lower arms so that said swiveling attachment receivers can better align with the angles of said container's walls within which said mechanism is inserted as pressure is applied to said containers interior surfaces, a rotation inducing device attached to the opposite end of said drive arm for the purpose of rotating said lower arms with said swiveling attachment receivers and said drive arm within said container that said assembly is inserted into, an adjustable looped band to hook on the tip of said swiveling attachment receivers to aid in cleaning said containers bottom surface, and to keep said lower arms from fully retracting to a closed position against said drive arm, whereby said mechanism uses the pressure created by said torsion springs applied to said lower arms rotating towards said drive arm to create pressure between said Swiveling attachment receivers and the interior face of the walls of said container within which it is inserted, whereby the gearing of said lower arms keeps said upper arm centered within said container, and said rotation inducing device enables a user to quickly and easily with one hand rotate said mechanism and slide said swiveling attachment receivers along the majority of the interior surfaces of said container.
