The Champagne Bottle Opener, a hand manipulable device is described for removing mushroom-shaped stoppers from sparkling beverage bottles. It includes a pair of bifurcated jaws and opposing handles about a common pivot wherein each jaw contains improvements over prior art, improvements that enable the device to function more effectively for the wide dimensional variances in bottle and cork diameters commonly found in the marketplace. The opposing handles contain improvements as well permitting the device to be operated more easily and safely. Also included in the present invention are features that generate a tactile “snap” when the device is properly inserted about the bottle, and provide improved means for anchoring the tool when engaging in the extraction of any mushroom-shaped stopper.

A disposable drink-through dome lid for disposable drinking cups used in the sale of hot or cold beverages. In order to extend the volume within the cup, the top surface of the lid is elevated above the top surface of the beverage cup when in place, and is encompassed by an annular ridge that includes a generally oval-shaped opening for drinking. In its preferred form the ridge is not continuous around its perimeter but is partially recessed on both sides of opening. In its preferred embodiment the generally oval-shaped opening includes a barrier that projects downward from the opening's perimeter thereby providing shielding against accidental spillage due to sloshing of the beverage while transporting or consuming in a moving vehicle.

Referred to as the “Stemware Saver” or “Stemsaver”, this assembled device is specifically designed to be installed in a conventional household dishwasher for the purpose of cradling one stemmed glassware of any size or configuration in a preferred inverted orientation so as to be properly angled for cleaning and likewise securing the glass against inadvertent movement during the washing or rinsing cycles wherein such movement could result in inadequate cleaning or even breakage. The assembly is comprised of a mounting base that clamps to one of the upright wire prongs within the holding rack, a swiveling cradle for resting the stem of the glass, and a pivoting arm with one end snapping onto the mounting base and the other end for the cradles' attachment. The pivoting arm in connection with its swiveling cradle provides considerable flexibility in positioning stemmed glassware at a desired angle for washing and rinsing thereby preventing trapped rinse water from leaving an unsightly residue. The Stemware Saver can be folded out of the way when not in use so not to interfere with the placement and washing of non-stemware items.

Improvements in a hand manipulable device with bifurcated jaws for removing mushroom shaped stoppers from sparkling beverage bottles wherein each jaw contains a recess enabling the device to be repositioned directly around the stopper's stem and on top of the bottle when the stopper has been partially removed, thereby providing a means for additional leverage and lift capability; pivotally interconnected upper and lower levels which are interlocked, thereby eliminating the likelihood that the pivot action might be either too tight or too loose, and enabling the insertion of a hidden spring which eliminates the need for an exposed and perhaps hazardous spring between the handles; and without an exposed spring, grip means is permitted beneath the handles that provides an alternate method of stopper removal; the addition of clips to the upper jaw to prevent the stopper from ricocheting out from under the retaining arm; and a retaining arm which is either flexible or movable thereby permitting a downwardly directed and manually exerted counter force to be applied to said stopper, enabling the stopper to be removed slowly, if desired.

An electronic entertainment apparatus for a multiple number of consoles, each of which is operated by one or more participants. A variety of controls at each console enable the participant to regulate his movements within the computer simulated environment, also shared by all other participants. These displays, at all consoles, appear three-dimensional, as if each participant were himself moving through a scene that is particular to his vantage point in this simulated environment. Through such means participants may interact with one another, thus creating a whole new kind of entertainment activity. All consoles are electrically connected to a separately located master computer system, and each game or performance is generated by the program within the master computer system. The program can be easily replaced with another, thereby changing the entertainment in much the same manner as changing a reel of film in a movie theater. This novel concept in electronic theater entertainment is hereafter referred to as ARCADIUM.

A disposable drink-through dome lid for disposable drinking cups used in the sale of hot or cold beverages, the top of the lid elevated above the top of the beverage cup when in place. The lid's outer wall is elevated to form a drink ridge adapted to the user's lips for drinking through a generally oval-shaped drink-through orifice. Ideally, the drink-through orifice includes: a drink-through chamber having a drink flap capable of closing off a drink-through opening, thereby shielding against accidental spillage due to sloshing of the beverage while traveling; and a recessed orifice ridge on the interior side of the drink-through orifice, directs froth exiting the drink opening into a spill reservoir. A vent opening positioned near the lid's center and within a vent slot, collects and directs beverage exiting the vent into the spill reservoir.
