Abstract

One of the greatest frustrations in the kitchen for a person with limited hand mobility is the task of holding the body of a jar while removing the lid. The present invention solves this problem by allowing the handicapped person's body to become the third hand and hold the bottle in a rigid grip. The new device clips over the front of any standard kitchen drawer and traps the jar between a V shaped vertical support and the front of the counter top. The jar is held rigid when the user presses their body against the drawer. Now both hands are free to remove the jar lid by any common means.
