ABSTRACT:
A siphon apparatus having a uniquely designed base for initiating fluid transfer from any fluid container having an opening which is large enough to accommodate a single tube to a desired site in a reasonably short transfer time without the likelihood of spillage or unintentional bodily contact with the fluid being transferred. The siphon apparatus includes the base having two distinct openings for inserting a pressure inducing device and a fluid transfer tube. The base also includes an internal channel for connecting the pressure tube opening to the fluid transfer tube opening thereby allowing air introduced into the pressure inducing tube to enter the sealed fluid container through the opening for the fluid transfer tube. The apparatus may be stored in a compact carrying case or may be hung on a wall by forming the pressure inducing tube and the fluid transfer tube into a single tubular loop.
