Multi-flow pour spout

A pour spout for transferring fluid from a container to a vessel, the pour spout comprising:

• a base having an inner sleeve extending outwardly therefrom;
• a conduit member located in the inner sleeve comprising a fluid tube, an air tube and an end cap;
• and
• an outer sleeve slidingly engaging the inner sleeve, wherein the outer sleeve is adapted to be slid to a first closed position wherein the outer sleeve is in contact with the end cap preventing fluid flow from the pour spout, and wherein the outer sleeve is adapted to be slid to a first open position permitting fluid to flow at a first flow rate through the fluid tube and out of the pour spout, and wherein the outer sleeve is adapted to be slid to a second open position permitting fluid to flow at a second flow rate through the fluid tube at a second flow rate and out of the pour spout wherein the air tube has a first and a second air vent aperture at one end thereof.

A pour spout for transferring fluid from a container to a vessel, the pour spout comprising:

• a base having an inner sleeve extending outwardly therefrom;
• a conduit member located in the inner sleeve comprising a fluid tube, a first air tube, a second air tube and an end cap;
• an outer sleeve slidingly engaging the inner sleeve and having a closed position that precludes the transfer of fluid through the air pour spout;
• a bias member urging the outer sleeve into the closed position;
• and
• the outer sleeve having a shoulder for coacting with the vessel to slide the outer sleeve from the closed position to either a first or a second open position.

A pour spout for transferring fluid from a container to a vessel, the pour spout comprising:

• a base having an inner sleeve extending outwardly therefrom;
• a conduit member located in the inner sleeve and including a fluid passage, an air passage and an end cap;
• and
• an outer sleeve slidingly engaging the inner sleeve, wherein the outer sleeve is capable of being slid to a closed position wherein the outer sleeve is in contact with the end cap preventing fluid flow from the fluid passage, and wherein the outer sleeve is capable of being slid to a first open position permitting fluid to flow at a first flow rate through the fluid passage, and wherein the outer sleeve is capable of being slid to a second open position permitting fluid to flow at a second flow rate through the fluid passage at a second flow rate, the outer sleeve adapted such that it is prevented from sliding beyond its respective position when it is in either open postion.

A pour spout for transferring fluid from a container to a vessel, the pour spout removably connectable to the container and comprising an inner sleeve, a conduit member disposed within the inner sleeve and forming a fluid passage and an air passage therein, and an outer sleeve disposed around the inner sleeve and moveable with respect to the inner sleeve, the outer sleeve being moveable to:

• a closed position wherein the outer sleeve cooperates with the conduit member to prevent fluid flow from the pour spout,
• a first flow rate position wherein the air passage is in communication with ambient air to allow air to flow therethrough at a first air flow rate to facilitate flow of the fluid through the fluid passage at a first fluid flow rate, and
• a second flow rate position wherein the air passage is in communication with ambient air to allow air to flow therethrough at a second air flow rate to facilitate flow of the fluid through the fluid passage at a second flow rate,
• the outer sleeve adapted to be maintained in its respective flow rate position when a force is continuously applied to the outer sleeve sufficient to move the outer sleeve with respect to the inner sleeve.
