Abstract:
A device for puncturing a metal can having a cylindrical sidewall and a bottom portion with an annular concave central portion terminating in an annular base portion. The base has an annular inclined connecting wall portion extending outward from the annular base portion to the sidewall. The device includes a frame with vertical walls extending above a supporting surface to a height at least equal to the height of the metal can, and an arm rotatably attached to the walls. The arm has two or more puncturing elements extending downward when the arm is in a puncturing position in which the arm extends laterally. The puncturing elements are configured so the can is positionable upside-down on a supporting surface so that when the arm is rotated into the puncturing position, the first puncturing element punctures the connecting wall and the second puncturing element punctures the concave central portion.

Claim (Index 18):
The combination of  claim 17 , wherein the concave dome-shaped central portion of the metal can has a center point, and the arm is configured so that when the arm is rotated into the puncturing position, the second and third puncturing elements puncture second and third holes in the concave dome-shaped central portion of the metal can, the second and third holes being spaced away from each other and spaced away from the center point.
