ABSTRACT:
A device for use in draining ketchup and the like from a bottle is described. The device includes an upper portion having an opening for receiving the neck of a bottle with the bottle in an inverted position. Means are provided for supporting the device in stable equilibrium on a support surface with the upper portion of the device in an elevated position in which the bottle is held clear of the support surface so that a container can be placed below the mouth of the bottle. A plurality of fingers extend inwardly of the opening in the upper portion of the device and are arranged to engage the neck of the bottle. The fingers are resiliently flexible so that they can be deflected outwardly by the bottle, whereby the fingers exert an inward biassing effect against the neck of the bottle and are capable of accommodating bottles of varying sizes.
