Abstract: Systems and methods for efficiently managing bulk material are provided. The disclosure is directed to a portable support structure used to receive one or more portable containers of bulk material and output bulk material from the containers directly into the blender hopper. The portable support structure may include a frame for receiving and holding the one or more portable bulk material containers in an elevated position proximate the blender hopper, as well as one or more gravity feed outlets for routing the bulk material from the containers directly into the blender hopper. In some embodiments, the portable support structure may be transported to the well site on a trailer, unloaded from the trailer, and positioned proximate the blender unit. In other embodiments, the portable support structure may be a mobile support structure that is integrated into a trailer unit.

Abstract: A radiator funnel and adapter to prevent spillage comprises a funnel having a fluid receiving body and a spout through which fluid is dispensed; an adapter having a tubular member, a sealing flange, a flexible seal member, and a cap abutment member; a cap having a hole for receiving the top end of the tubular member and the spout which is engageably and sealingly inserted in the tubular member; and a stopper means having a stem, a plug portion at one end of the stem, and a handle at the other end to plug the bore through the spout. The adapter fits in the fill opening of the radiator and the cap fastens over the fill opening of the radiator and urges the flexible seal member and the sealing flange against the recessed ledge in the fill opening to substantially provide a seal between the adapter and the fill opening so that as fluid is poured into the radiator, the fluid won't spill out of radiator as it commonly bubbles up through the fill opening of the radiator.
