Abstract:
A flat piece of material in a predetermined shape convertible to a funnel, the flat piece of material comprised of an outer edge, a hole in the middle of the flat piece of material, a line cut from the hole to the outer edge, a first tab on a first side of the line and a second tab on a second side of the line, a first notch in the first tab, a second notch in the second tab, and where the flat piece of material is adapted to be converted into a funnel by moving the first and second tab portions in opposite directions and interlocking the first and second notches. To disassemble the funnel back to the flat shape, the tabs are unhooked from each other allowing the funnel to spring back, or relax, into the original flat piece of material. In the flat state, the material is much easier to clean and can be stored easily without taking as much space when compared to the funnel shape.

Claim (Index 5):
The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the flat piece of material is circular in shape.
