A stopper change device (10) includes an airtight chamber body (21) detachably mountable on a head of a bottle, a gas supply port (19) for supplying N gas to the chamber body, an air vent valve (57) for discharging air from the chamber body, a first supporting structure (28) movable upward and downw

A stopper change device (10) includes an airtight chamber body (21) detachably mountable on a head of a bottle, a gas supply port (19) for supplying N gas to the chamber body, an air vent valve (57) for discharging air from the chamber body, a first supporting structure (28) movable upward and downward for supporting a corkscrew, and a second supporting structure (34) movable upward and downward for containing a substitute stopper. The first and second supporting structures are mutually position changeable, and one of them is selectively placed above an opening of the bottle. When the first supporting structure (28) is placed above the opening, a bottle stopper can be pulled in N gas atmosphere. On the other hand, when the second supporting structure (34) is placed above the opening, the substitute stopper is mountable on the head of the bottle in N gas atmosphere. By changing the bottle stopper with the substitute stopper using this device, entering of air in the bottle as a cause of deterioration in a quality can be prevented.

The invention claimed is: 1. A device for extracting a bottle stopper of a bottle having fluid contained therein, comprising: an airtight container detachably mountable on a head of the bottle via an airtight mounting mouth; a corkscrew contained in said airtight container together with a substitute stopper; and an operation body capable of operating said corkscrew with one hand of a user from outside said airtight container while holding the bottle with the other hand of the user in order to detach the bottle stopper from the head of said bottle, wherein at least a part of said airtight container is made of a deformable member, the deformable member comprising a deformable bag attached to the mounting mouth, and wherein the substitute stopper is able to be mounted on the head of the bottle after said bottle stopper is detached from the head of said bottle, and wherein operating said corkscrew and manipulating said substitute stopper are carried out from an outside of said airtight container by using a flexibility of the deformable member. 2. The device of claim 1, further comprising a gas supply port provided on said airtight container for supplying deterioration preventive gas to said airtight container; and an air vent valve provided on said airtight container for discharging air from said airtight container. 3. The device of claim 2, wherein the gas supply port and the air vent valve are operable to enable gas to be supplied to the interior of the airtight container while air is exhausted from the airtight container through the air vent valve, such that when the bottle stopper is removed and the substitute stopper is inserted using the device, the wine in the bottle is subjected to a gas atmosphere substantially free of air. 4. The device of claim 2, wherein the deformable member enables the airtight container to be folded to allow for compact storage of the device. 5. The device of claim 2, wherein at least a portion of the airtight container is transparent or translucent. 6. The device of claim 2, wherein the operation body forms an airtight seal with the airtight container, and a portion of the operation body is freely rotatable with respect to the airtight container to allow the corkscrew to engage the bottle stopper and to rotate the bottle stopper with respect to the bottle and the airtight container. 7. The device of claim 2, wherein the flexibility of said deformable member allows a user to: i) engage the corkscrew with the bottle stopper, ii) to detach the bottle stopper from the head of the battle, and iii) to mount the substitute stopper on the head of the bottle; while maintaining the airtight seal between the airtight container and the bottle. 8. The device of claim 2, wherein the operation body comprises a handle portion of the corkscrew, and the operation body is contained within the airtight container. 9. A device for extracting a bottle stopper of a bottle having fluid contained therein, comprising: an airtight container detachably mountable on a head of the bottle via a mounting mouth; a corkscrew contained in said airtight container together with a substitute stopper; and an operation body capable of applying a rotational motion to said corkscrew with one hand of a user from outside of the airtight container while holding the bottle with the other hand of the user, said rotational motion being used to detach the bottle stopper from the head of the bottle, wherein at least a part of said airtight container is made of a deformable member, the deformable member comprising a deformable bag attached to the mounting mouth, and wherein the substitute stopper is able to be mounted on the head of the bottle in place of the bottle stopper detached; and wherein applying said rotational motion and manipulating said substitute stopper are carried out from an outside of said airtight container by employing a flexibility of the deformable member. 10. The device of claim 9, wherein a gas supply port is provided on said airtight container for supplying a first gas to said airtight container; and a gas vent valve is provided on said airtight container for discharging a second gas from said airtight container. 11. The device of claim 10, wherein the gas supply port and the air vent valve are operable to enable gas to be supplied to the interior of the airtight container while air is exhausted from the airtight container through the air vent valve, such that when the bottle stopper is removed and the substitute stopper is inserted using the device, contents of the bottle are subjected to a gas atmosphere substantially free of air. 12. The device of claim 10, wherein the operation body forms an airtight seal with the airtight container, and a portion of the operation body is freely rotatable with respect to the airtight container to allow the corkscrew to engage the bottle stopper and to rotate the bottle stopper with respect to the bottle and the airtight container. 13. The device of claim 10, wherein at least a portion of the airtight container is transparent or translucent. 14. The device of claim 10, wherein the deformable member enables the airtight container to folded to allow for compact storage of the device. 15. The device of claim 10, wherein the deformable member is flexible to allow a user to: i) engage the bottle opening member with the bottle stopper, ii) to detach the bottle stopper from the head of the battle, and iii) to mount the substitute stopper on the head of the bottle; while maintaining the airtight seal between the airtight container and the bottle. 16. The device of claim 10, wherein the operation body comprises a handle portion of the corkscrew, and the operation body is contained within the airtight container. 17. A device for extracting a bottle stopper of a bottle having fluid contained therein, comprising: an airtight container detachably mountable on a head of the bottle via a mounting mouth; and a bottle opening member contained in said airtight container together with a substitute stopper; wherein at least a part of said airtight container is made of a deformable member, the deformable member comprising a deformable bag attached to the mounting mouth; and wherein the deformable member is flexible to allow a user from an outside of said airtight container i) to operate said bottle opening member: ii) to engage the bottle opening member with the bottle stopper, iii) to remove the bottle stopper from engagement with the bottle; and iv) to mount the substitute stopper on the head of the bottle; while maintaining the airtight seal between the airtight container and the bottle. 18.
