Broken bulb remover (10) for removing a broken light bulb by twisting the glass stem protruding from the remnants of the broken bulb. A pair of longitudinal members (12, 14) of non-conductive material with handles (24, 28) on one end and semi-cylindrical engagement sections (26, 30) on the other end is connected together for pivoting about a fulcrum pin (40) and socket (64). The engagement sections have silicone tabs (38) for centering and stabilizing the tool when the handle sections are squeezed. Internal radial ribs (58, 59) on the engagement sections enclose and twist the glass stem to remove the broken bulb. A transparent non-conductive shield (18) is mounted around the fulcrum sections to protect against electrical shock and broken glass. |
