ABSTRACT:
A spout (10) functioning to facilitate pouring of fluid (22) from a container (20). The spout (10) has a hollow base (12) which has a base bottom (12A) securely connected to a base stopper (12B) positioned at a top distal end, a base ring (12C) is securely affixed around the base bottom (12A) positioned a predetermined distance from the base stopper (12B) forming a base channel (12D) therebetween which is slightly larger than a width of a container lip (20B). The base ring angle (12CA) has a base ring (12C) positioned along a lower circumference end thereof. The improved spout (10 ) further has a hollow spout (16) sealably connected at a bottom distal end to the base stopper (12B). The spout (10) further has an air tube (14) securely positioned within the base (12) extending therethrough. The air tube (14) is securely and positioned within the spout (16) extending therethrough terminating at an upper distal end thereof. The air tube (14) extends a predetermined distance from the base (12). When an user tips the container (20), the fluid (22) enters the base (12) and the spout (16) pouring outwardly therefrom. Concurrently, air (24) enters an air intake (24A) positioned at the terminal upper end of the air tube (14) transcending therethrough exiting an air egress (24B) positioned at a terminal lower end thereof into the container (20) replacing the fluid (22) with air (24) therein at a similar rate as the fluid (22) is poured from the container (20).
