Disclosed is a mating structure of a liquid extraction piece and a test tube assembly, which comprises the liquid extraction piece (1) and the test tube assembly (4). A test tube plug (2) is arranged at an opening end (32) of a test tube (3). The lower portion of the liquid extraction piece (1) is mated with the test tube assembly (4). The body of the test tube plug (2) is provided with a blocking body (25). The blocking body (25) is provided with a movable portion (253) and a fixed portion (252). The movable portion (253) can move with respect to the fixed portion (252). An axial recess is arranged above an upper surface (251) of the movable portion (253). The lower portion of the liquid extraction piece (1) is mated with the recess. The blocking body (25) is located in a lumen (31) of the test tube (3).

A device for collecting waste cleaning fluid and debris from an installed A/C unit by placing and supporting a funnel shaped collection bib under the A/C unit by means of device mounting brackets placed behind the A/C unit, the bib being held open by an arcuate rib attached to the mounting brackets, and by a supporting cord passing through the rib, brackets, and bib hem and being cinched against the device.

An apparatus for collecting and storing fluid samples from vehicles and machinery comprises a storage container having a fluid inlet sealed by a cap, the cap having an aperture releasably sealed by a lid. An adapter connects the cap releasably to a fluid outlet coupling port of a fluid sampling device. The adapter comprises a lumen, having an inlet and an outlet aperture, an external screw thread engageable with an internal screw thread of the coupling port and a connector assembly for connecting the adapter releasably to the cap. A penetrable diaphragm provides an airtight seal over a storage region of the storage container. When the adapter is connected to the coupling port and the cap is connected to the adapter, a fluid outlet tube extending from the coupling port extends through the aperture and protrudes through one or more perforations provided in the penetrable diaphragm into the storage region.

A drainage apparatus for draining viscous liquids from containers includes a collection tote and a rack. The rack includes at least one horizontal support bar with a plurality of tabs extending from the horizontal support bar. The plurality of tabs are configured at an acute angle relative to the horizontal support bar to optimize the draining of viscous fluids from a plurality of containers that are placed on the rack. The drainage apparatus is beneficial for draining fluids such as lubricants and coolants from containers so that the fluids can be repurposed and the containers can be recycled.

In one embodiment there is provided a container package configured to hold a substance. The container package includes a main container configured to hold a substance, either liquid or solid; a spout adapter configured to secure to the main container, the spout adapter having a spout end configured for pouring a substance out of the main container; a funnel adapter configured to frictionally fit onto the spout adapter, the funnel adapter having a funnel end configured to fit over the spout end; and an overcap configured to fit over the funnel adapter and removably secured to the spout adapter. When the overcap is removed the substance can be poured into the overcap and wherein the funnel adapter is configured for removable from the spout adapter and fitted into the overcap such that the substance in the overcap is pourable through the funnel adapter.

A method for fabricating a funnel, a tool for carrying out the method, and a funnel of flat material, more particularly of plastic-coated paper. A receptacle for a pulverulent and/or liquid medium includes a funnel disposed in a pouring or discharging region. A blank of flat material is shaped to a funnel-shaped sleeve having an outlet opening, an inlet opening, and an opening angle, and the funnel-shaped sleeve is swaged in at least one subregion to effect enlargement of the opening angle.
