Abstract:
The device of the present invention is for the collection of viscous fluids, e. g. motor oil, from a plurality of containers having open necks. The device includes: a trough-like member having an upper end and a lower end; a plurality of container holders, operably joined to the trough-like member, for receiving the necks of the containers in an inverted, fluid draining position; and an outlet adjacent to the lower end of the trough-like member. The viscous fluid remaining in the inverted containers flows by gravity through at least a portion of the trough-like member to the outlet and the fluid can be collected in any receiving container that is positioned below the outlet. The device is capable of easily supported by any one of a number of alternative support means.
