Hands Free, Self-Venting Oil Filler Funnel
A hands-free, self-venting device for adding oil to the crankcase of a diesel engine mounted in a semi-truck comprises a funnel having a self-venting passage open at both ends, primarily conical in shape and increasingly diminishing in shape wherein a diameter of the inlet is greater that a diameter of a throat, which is greater than a diameter of the outlet. With an upper body section to receive oil, a middle transition throat which allows oil to be poured freely and also allows air to be vented from the crankcase of a diesel engine simultaneously, without obstruction. The oil flow is redirected to a lower section that mounts easily with just a firm push of the lower body section into the oil fill tube of a diesel engine, sealing tightly enough to create a seal that will prevent leakage.

Stand mixer funnel accessory
A funnel accessory for a KitchenAid® brand stand mixer with a hub protruding from its motor head. The funnel accessory has a funnel, with a top opening relatively larger than a bottom opening, affixed to a mount having a hub receiving opening oriented so as to be perpendicular to the top opening of the funnel. The mount is formed with a slot sized to receive a thumb screw of the hub; pushing the mount over an external wall of the hub while aligning the slot to receive the thumb screw couples the funnel accessory to the hub.
OIL AND WASTE SPILLAGE CONTAINMENT
