System for effecting liquid transfer from an elevated supply container
First Claim
1. A system for effecting transfer of liquid from a supply container to a receiving container comprising:
- a) a support structure, configured to support the supply container;
b) mounting means configured for suspending the support structure at an elevated position relative to the receiving container; and
c) a fluid transfer apparatus, configured for fluid communication disposition with the liquid in the supply container when the supply container is supported on the support structure to thereby effect creation of a fluid pressure driving force for initiating flow of the liquid from the supply container, and including an outlet for effecting discharge of the liquid being flowed to the receiving container.

Abstract
The present invention provides a system for effecting transfer of liquid from a supply container to a receiving container comprising a support structure, configured to support the supply container mounting means configured for suspending the support structure at an elevated position relative to the receiving container and a fluid transfer apparatus, configured for fluid communication disposition with the liquid in the supply container when the supply container is supported on the support structure to thereby effect creation of a fluid pressure driving force for initiating flow of the liquid from the supply container, and including an outlet for effecting discharge of the liquid being flowed to the receiving container. Also is provided is a kit for an apparatus for supporting an object comprising a support structure configured to support the supply container and mounting means configured for snap-fit engagement to the support structure to effect releasable coupling of the mounting means to the support structure.

22. A system for effecting transfer of liquid from a supply container to a receiving container comprising:
-
a) a support structure including a base configured for vertically supporting the supply container and lateral support means projecting above the base and configured for providing lateral support to the supply container supported on the base; and
b) a fluid transfer apparatus configured for fluid communication disposition with the liquid in the supply container when the supply container is supported on the legal structure to thereby effect creation of a fluid pressure driving force for initiating flow of the liquid from the supply container, and including an outlet for effecting discharge of the liquid being flowed to the receiving container. - View Dependent Claims (23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30)
