33 Champagne Key Allan Chance and William Gray were granted U. S. Patent No. 4,442,735 on April 17, 1984 for their Champagne Cork Puller. The two examples on the following pages are marked CHAMPAGNE KEY PAT Although the function is the same as the patent description, the overall design in the production example is radically different. In the patent extract we find that this is A safety device for preventing premature expulsion of a stopper in the ridged neck of a container for beverages under pressure, such as a champagne bottle. Chance and Gray make this observation in their description One of the major causes of eye injury each year is errant flying corks from champagne bottles and other corked bottles having liquid contents under pressure. At serving temperature, the pressure in a champagne bottle is about ninety pounds per square inch, and a cork spontaneously ejected from a bottle after removal of the wire mesh cage attains a velocity of about forty-five feet per second when it strikes the eye. Since the cork travelling at this speed can reach the eye from a distance of two feet in less than 0.05 second, and the blink reflex takes about 0.1 second, the cornea of the eye usually receives the full impact of the cork.
