Lp polyethylene canister - with faucet sleeve - nut and ring seal

The canister is closed by means of a faucet fitted with a sleeve and cap nut, the sleeve composed of metal etc. with higher flow point than the canister material. The sleeve is screwed onto the faucet and the cap nut is threaded tight onto the sleeve. A sealing ring of rubber is placed between the base of the faucet and the sleeve and a sealing flange spreads out from the bottom of the flange. A tongue and notching member on the flange locate this and thus prevent the sleeve from twisting. Secure closure, avoidance of bulging and warping which would impede tight closure.

Demountable pouring spout for attaching to existing vessel

A spout attachment 8 for a vessel improves the pouring of liquid from the vessel, especially when the vessel is nearly full. The spout attaches permanently or temporarily (using an elastic band) to the outside of the vessel (e.g. a vessel with plain rim) and catches the dribbles which run down the outer wall of the vessel. A sealing gasket may be provided. A hood (16, fig 3) may be provided to prevent liquid overshooting the spout attachment when pouring at higher speeds. The spout may be made from transparent materials, and may be discarded after a single use. The spout is particularly useful for attaching to an unused mug, beaker or glass for use in watering plants.
