1. A venturi adapter apparatus, comprising: a collar constructed of one piece;a first portion of the collar having an inward projection;a second portion of the collar having an outward projection; anda shoulder portion of the collar having a central longitudinal axis and including an outer radial section oriented along a radial dimension, where the radial dimension is defined relative to and extends radially outwardly from the central longitudinal axis, the outer radial section having a plane and being coupled to the first portion of the collar, an inner radial section coplanar with the plane of the outer radial section and coupled to the second portion of the collar and an axial projection,the inner radial section defining an aperture,the axial projection being radially interposed between the inner and outer radial sections and configured to protrude from the plane of the inner and outer radial sections in an axial direction relative to the central longitudinal axis, andthe first and second portions of the collars extending in opposing axial directions relative to the central longitudinal axis from the shoulder portion of the collar,the venturi adapter apparatus further comprising a first tool, wherein deformation capabilities of the first portion of the collar, the second portion of the collar and the shoulder portion of the collar are provided by a slot comprising circumferentially aligned and longitudinally continuous first, second and third longitudinal slot portions formed therein in relation to the central longitudinal axis, the first portion of the collar being annular in shape and formed to define a receiving section receptive of the first tool, which is configured to be press-fit into the receiving section of the first portion of the collar with respective opposing edges of the first, second and third longitudinal slots remaining unattached to one another; andcombined deformation capabilities of the first portion of the collar and the shoulder portion of the collar oppose combined deformation capabilities of the second portion of the collar and the shoulder portion of the collar. 2. A venturi adapter apparatus, comprising: a collar constructed of one piece;a first portion of the collar having an inward projection and deformation capability;a second portion of the collar having an outward projection and deformation capability;a shoulder portion of the collar having deformation capability and a central longitudinal axis and including an outer radial section oriented along a radial dimension, where the radial dimension is defined relative to and extends radially outwardly from the central longitudinal axis, the outer radial section having a plane and being coupled to the first portion of the collar, an inner radial section coplanar with the plane of the outer radial section and coupled to the second portion of the collar and an axial projection; anda first tool comprising a venturi sleeve, wherein the first portion of the collar is annular in shape and forms a receiving section receptive of the venturi sleeve,the inner radial section defining an aperture,the axial projection being radially interposed between the inner and outer radial sections and configured to protrude from the plane of the inner and outer radial sections in an axial direction relative to the central longitudinal axis,the first and second portions of the collars extending in opposing axial directions relative to the central longitudinal axis from the shoulder portion of the collar, andcombined deformation capabilities of the first portion of the collar and the shoulder portion of the collar are provided by slot portions being formed therein and oppose combined deformation capabilities of the second portion of the collar and the shoulder portion of the collar, which are provided by the slot portion formed in the shoulder portion of the collar and by a slot portion formed in the second portion of the collar, the slot portions being circumferentially aligned and longitudinally continuous and forming a single slot; andthe slot portions having respective opposing edges and the respective opposing edges of the slot portions remaining unattached to one another. 3. The adapter apparatus according to claim 2, wherein the second portion of the collar comprises a plurality of outward projections. 4. The adapter apparatus according to claim 2, wherein the axial projection comprises an annular projection. 5. The adapter apparatus according to claim 2, wherein the axial projection and the second portion of the collar extend from the plane of the inner and outer radial sections in the same axial directions. 6. The adapter apparatus according to claim 2, wherein the first and second portions of the collar and the aperture are substantially concentric. 7. The adapter apparatus according to claim 6, wherein respective diameters of the second portion of the collar and the aperture are substantially the same. 8. The adapter apparatus according to claim 2, wherein the first tool is configured to be press-fit into the receiving section of the first portion of the collar. 9. The adapter apparatus according to claim 8, wherein the inward projection extends circumferentially around the first portion of the collar to impinge against an outer surface of the first tool. 10. The adapter apparatus according to claim 2, wherein the second portion of the collar is annular in shape. 11. The adapter apparatus according to claim 10, further comprising a second tool, wherein the second portion of the collar is press-fittable into a receiving section of the second tool. 12. The adapter apparatus according to claim 11, wherein the outward projection extends circumferentially around the second portion of the collar to impinge against an inner surface of the second tool. 13. The adapter apparatus according to claim 11, wherein the second tool comprises a filter element.
