Abstract

See full text

The invention described herein provides a method and apparatus for supporting an object inside a vessel. The device comprises a vessel connector 20 having an annular ring 32, with an internal flange 38, and preferably a first 34 and second 36 set of threads. The vessel connector 20 supports and locates a support membrane 58 having a perforation 66 into which an object 28, such as a paintbrush 30 is inserted. The support membrane 58 locates a portion of the object internal to a connected vessel 22 which may be filled with solvent 54 thereby allowing the object 28 to be cleaned while limiting harmful chemicals from entering the environment through evaporation.
