Indicator funnel having improved vertical stability

An indicator funnel having improved vertical stability,

• said funnel consisting essentially a lower spout portion having a top end and a bottom end and a hollow interior;
• said lower spout portion being integrally joined and surmounted at the top end by an upper inverted cone-shaped portion to form an enlarged annular ring essentially at the site of the joined portions,
• the improvement comprising:
• said enlarged annular ring forming a shouldered support for the funnel;
• said lower spout portion being enlarged and adapted to fit and stabilize the funnel in an opening;
• a hollow tubular float, said float being disengageable from the funnel;
• said float having a bottom end and having a resting and an active position within the funnel;
• said lower spout portion having a float guide fixedly centered in its hollow interior such that the float is freely movable therein and such that the float is capable of ascending in the float guide and being fully recessable in the bottom end of the lower spout such that the bottom end of the float is higher than the bottom end of the lower spout when the float is in a full active position within the funnel.
