    Abstract: A wine aerator system includes a wine aerator having a body defining a fluid flow path extending from a top opening of the body to a bottom opening of the body. The fluid flow path of the wine aerator is configured to introduce air into a flow of wine passing from the top opening to the bottom opening of the body. The aerator system also includes a tower configured to receive the wine aerator, the tower including a base configured to be disposed on a horizontal surface and to receive a wine glass. A stem extends upwardly from the base when the base is disposed on the horizontal surface. The stein includes an adapter configured to removably receive the wine aerator such that the wine aerator is positioned above the base such that the wine glass can be positioned on the base and under the wine aerator to receive wine exiting the bottom opening of the wine aerator.

  • Publication number: 20110042835
    Abstract: An improved venturi apparatus for facilitating the mixture of fluid substances. The apparatus preferably comprises a first funnel section operative to receive a fluid and channel the same through a first cylindrical section or passageway. The first cylindrical section is fluidly connected to an intermediate passageway having a diameter larger than the first cylindrical section. At least one sidearm passageway is fluidly connected to the intermediate passageway into which at least one second fluid is introduced. The at least one sidearm passageway is preferably configured to fluidly interconnect with the intermediate passageway at approximately the medial portion of the intermediate passageway. Fluidly connected to the intermediate passageway is a second cylindrical section that is operative to direct the flow of the intermixed fluids to a second exit funnel section.
