Abstract
An interactive device for catching drips from a spout commonly associated with bag-in-the-box liquid containers. The apparatus attaches to features of the spout and a pendulum element blocks access to the liquid flow path beneath the spout. A cup makes contact with the pendulum, forcing it aside to gain access to the liquid flow path. The pendulum returns beneath the spout, via gravity, when interaction is complete.
