ABSTRACT:
A funnel with spill guard for preventing the contents of a liquid container from overflowing. The inventive device includes a funnel member having an open end, a tapered body, a neck, a threaded nipple within the neck, and an extended tube extending from the neck and the threaded nipple. The extended tube extends into the container thereby creating an air pocket of equal height that preferably has a volume sufficient to receive the entire contents of the funnel member. The air pocket is sealed within the container between the liquid level and the threaded nipple until the user loosens the threaded nipple to allow the air within the air pocket to escape. The extended tube preferably includes a filter member for catching debris within the fluid.
