Abstract

A spill-proof pouring device for fixing inside the neck of a bottle includes a skirt sealing to the inside of the neck on its outer surface and having an internal channel. An upper flared portion of the skirt protrudes beyond the lip of the neck, and is formed of a flexible material. The flared portion joins the skirt at a point of union of reduced thickness to permit flexing action by the protruding portion.
