A toothpaste tube squeezer has first and second squeezing blocks for
holding a toothpaste tube therebetween. A first clamping mechanism is
positioned toward an opening end of the toothpaste tube to apply pressure
to the first and second squeezing blocks to squeeze the toothpaste tube.
A second clamping mechanism is positioned toward a sealed end of the
toothpaste tube to release pressure on the blocks. Both squeezing blocks
may have slightly outwardly curved surfaces to contact the toothpaste
tube. As the second clamping mechanism is loosened to release pressure
applied at the sealed end of the toothpaste tube, a gap may increase
between the squeezing blocks at the sealed end of the toothpaste tube.
Due to the slightly curved surfaces of the squeezing blocks and the
increasing gap, a squeezing pressure moves further up the toothpaste tube
in a direction from the sealed end to the opening end.
