A filling device for connecting a dispensing instrument having multiple fluid reservoirs to multiple containers is disclosed. More particularly, the present invention discloses a connecting device capable of coupling the individual reservoirs of a dispensing instrument to multiple fluid containers. The apparatus includes a body, a collar extending from the body, a plurality of tubes in fluid communication with a plurality of inlet ports formed in the body, and a hood adapted to simultaneously receive a plurality of containers therein. The containers are positioned within the hood to allow the plurality of tubes to simultaneously and separately draw fluid from the fluid containers and transferring the material into the individual reservoirs of the dispensing instrument.

1. A connector usable as a filling device for connecting a dispensing instrument having multiple fluid reservoirs for separately holding and controllably dispensing fluids, and having a supply port connectable to each fluid reservoir by a supply conduit to multiple containers to facilitate simultaneous and separate withdrawal of fluid from said multiple containers, comprising:(a) a body having a bottom and a top, said top having an outer perimeter and a plurality of outlet ports within said perimeter, said bottom having a plurality of inlet ports connected to said outlet ports wherein each of said inlet ports is connected to one of said outlet ports by a bore in said body; (b) a collar extending from said perimeter, said collar being adapted to detachably receive said dispensing instrument; (c) a plurality of tubes whereby each of said tubes is connected to one of said inlet ports and has an end distal to said inlet ports for extending into one of said containers, each of said ends having an opening for drawing fluid; and (d) a hood extending from said bottom and adapted to simultaneously slideably receive a plurality of containers such that once the containers are seated within said hood, said ends of said tubes allow for simultaneous and separate drawing of fluids into said fluid reservoirs of said dispensing instrument wherein the dispensing instrument is capable of holding and dispensing fluid after being disengaged from the connector.
