Definitions

  • This invention relates to pouring funnels, and particularly to funnels adapted for filling containers having relatively narrow necks, with liquids.
  • a first aspect of the present invention provides a pouring funnel of the kind comprising a body including an open inlet portion into which fluid is poured, in use, and which tapers down to a generally tubular outlet portion which is adapted to be positioned in the neck of a container, the inlet portion including at least one reentrant portion in the wall of the funnel which is so arranged as to provide a vent which in use connects the interior of the container with the atmosphere to facilitate filling and also forms a baffle member which protrudes into the open inlet portion sufficiently so as to prevent swirling of the fluid when poured through the funnel.
  • a film development tank including a lid with a funnel part in accordance with the said first aspect of the invention so as to prevent swirling of fluid when poured into the tank through the funnel.
  • a funnel may be provided with more than one radially extending baffle member, and in a preferred arrangement, a pair of such radially extending baffles are provided, on opposite sides of the funnel neck, so as to extend across a diameter of the funnel.
