Apparatus for draining viscous fluids

An apparatus for draining a viscous fluid from a delivering container to a receiving container comprising a base and a support member for placing the delivering container in the inverted position whereby the sides of the delivering container become inclined and the fluid is permitted to drain from the mouth thereof onto the support member, said member having a lower section for mounting to said base, an intermediate section for directing the draining of the fluid and an upper section for for inserting into the delivering container and for supporting the delivering container in the inverted position, said upper section being long enough for the bottom of the inverted container to rest thereon and to maintain said container above said intermediate section, wherein a drip-directing point for permitting dripping of said fluid by means of gravity is formed between said intermediate section and said upper section, said intermediate section being in a horizontal plane or rising from said point.
