Abstract
An uncaser finger for bottle handling apparatus. The finger includes a pair of opposed jaws operable for opening and closing upon the neck or rim of a bottle. Each of the jaws includes a plurality of parallel ridges or lips extending from the planar surfaces of the jaw and adapted for engaging the rims of the mouths of the bottles. A side flange is presented along each side of the jaws to prevent the bottles from escaping the grip of the jaw.
