Abstract
A threaded elongated flexible pouring spout is detachably connectable with the threaded outlets of variously sized liquid containers by means of a multi-threaded adapter having threaded sleeve portions of different diameters, one of which at each end of the adapter is engageable with the threads of the flexible spout. A threaded extension cap for the flexible spout enables the servicing of small openings requiring liquids. The extension cap can also be threadedly engaged with the outlets of certain containers.
Claims7
A universal pouring spout for containers having externally threaded outlets of diverse diameters comprising a flexible elongated pouring spout body portion having an externally threaded terminal at its rear end, and a double-ended multi-threaded adapter for threadedly coupling said threaded terminal with the threaded outlet of a container, said adapter including a center internally threaded sleeve of constant diameter opening through both end faces of the adapter, and first and second internally threaded sleeve portions on the adapter at opposite ends thereof in surrounding spaced concentric relationship to the center sleeve, said first and second sleeve portions having different diameters and each being of larger diameter than said center sleeve, and a median wall on the adapter serving to integrally join the center sleeve and said first and second sleeve portions.
A universal pouring spout for liquid containers comprising a pouring spout body portion, and an end-for-end reversible threaded adapter for coupling a threaded terminal of the pouring spout body portion with a threaded outlet of a liquid container, said adapter including an interior threaded sleeve of uniform diameter from end-to-end of the adapter, and a pair of exterior threaded sleeve portions of differing diameters each larger than the diameter of the interior sleeve and each surrounding the interior sleeve in spaced concentric relationship thereto.
