There is provided a funnel having a body forming a conduit for a flowable material. The body has an inlet to receive the flowable material and an outlet to output the flowable material. The flowable material is to move from the inlet to the outlet along an axis of material movement. The body has a stem portion proximate the outlet, the stem portion for being at least partially received into a corresponding inlet of a receptacle for transferring the flowable material into the receptacle. The funnel also has one or more fins positioned in the stem portion, which fins extend from an outer surface of the body laterally to the axis of material movement. The one or more fins are to abut against an inner surface of the corresponding inlet of the receptacle when the stem portion is at least partially received in the corresponding inlet of the receptacle.

A funnel compatible with recreational vehicle fill ports. The funnel including: a) an input section having an inlet portion which is tapered; b) an output section having: i) an outlet portion in fluid communication with the inlet portion and adapted to engage with a fill port; and ii) an adapter portion not in fluid communication with the input section and adapted to engage with a support member.

A rotary filling machine for filling containers with bridgeable dry materials includes a turret supporting a plurality of circumferentially spaced drop buckets and a plurality of funnel assemblies located under the drop buckets. A stationary slide plate is located vertically between the funnel assemblies and the drop buckets. The slide plate is configured such that flow paths from the bottoms of the drop buckets to the inlet openings of the funnel assemblies increase progressively in at least a portion of a circumferential extent of the slide plate. Drop buckets are located above the slide plate and rotate with the turret. Each drop bucket is provided with one or more partitions that hinder the “snow-plowing of particles” along the edge of the associated fill opening in the machine’s fill plate rather than the sweeping of those particles into the fill opening.

The present disclosure is directed to funnels, specifically, funnels made to supportably adapt to containers with varying neck opening dimensions and configurations. Disclosed herein is a funnel that can be used to both funnel substances into varying sized containers as well as used to neatly pour the substances within the container back out, wherein the particular dimensions and configurations of the neck opening of that container is unimportant.
