  • Publication number: 20190194008
    Abstract: A self-supporting funnel designed to allow a user to use both hands to pour liquids therethrough at a specified angle. The self-supporting funnel includes a conical body having a first end disposed opposite a second end and tapers inward therebetween at a specified angle. The first end has an annular opening with a diameter and is designed to receive liquids therethrough. The second end has an annular opening with a diameter less than the diameter of the first end and is designed to expel liquids therethrough. A spout extends from the second end and includes an aperture therethrough. A stopper is removably secured to a distal end of the spout and also includes an aperture extending therethrough. In this way, a user is able to secure the self-supporting funnel within an aperture and thereby use both hands to pour liquids therethrough at a specified angle.
