SPUTUM CUP

摘要

SPUTUM CUP OF THE DISCLOSURE A system is provided for easing the placement of the final screw cap onto a sputum collection container so as to avoid dropping the cap or spilling the specimen in the container onto the hands of the user. An opening is provided in the side wall of the outer protective body of the system so as to gain access to the cap held wedged therein. The wedging action holds the screw cap in place while the user rotates the specimen container to cause cooperation between the screw threads of the screw cap and the associated sputum collection container.
