Embodiment Construction

[0066] refer to figure 1 , the container 1 according to the invention has a housing 2, for example consisting of plastic material and / or metal. The coupling mechanism 3 is coupled to the housing 2 . The coupling mechanism 3 comprises ports 4, 5, 6 which, in use, engage valve means for fluid communication with a fluid system 12 of an engine, eg a vehicle engine. The coupling mechanism 3 may consist of plastic material and / or metal, with the ports 4, 5, 6 integrally formed therein. The coupling mechanism 3 may include a quick release (not shown) to connect to a connector (not shown) on the engine 3 . The container 1 comprises a reservoir 9 containing a fluid 7 for a fluid system 12 of an engine 13 . The reservoir 9 is in fluid communication with the fluid system 12 of the engine 13 through the output port 5 for supplying the fluid 7 to the engine fluid system 12 . The reservoir 9 is in fluid communication with the fluid system 12 of the engine 13 through the input port 4 for...

Abstract

A replaceable fluid container for vehicles, the container comprising: housing, which comprises a fluid reservoir; Output ports, which are arranged on the housing to connect the reservoir into a fluid connection with the vehicle's fluid system, for supplying fluid from the reservoir to the vehicle; Input port, which is arranged on the housing to connect the reservoir into a fluid communication with the fluid system of the engine for receiving fluid from the engine to the reservoir; And the ventilation port, which is arranged on the housing to connect the receptacle into a fluid communication with the vehicle, for allowing gas in and out of the receptacle, wherein the input port, output port and ventilation port are arranged on a common end of the housing and so arranged, such that the distance between the ventilation port and the nearest of the input port and the output port is greater than the distance between the input port and the output port.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to replaceable fluid containers for vehicles and engines. The invention also relates to a device comprising such a container in fluid communication with a fluid system and to a vehicle comprising such a device. Background technique [0002] Many vehicle engines use one or more fluids for their operation. These fluids are often liquids. For example, internal combustion engines use liquid lubricating oil components. Additionally, electric engines use heat exchange fluids to cool the engine, heat the engine, or cool and heat the engine during different operating conditions. Such fluid is generally maintained in a reservoir associated with the engine and may require periodic replacement. [0003] Routine periodic replacement of engine lubricating oil components in vehicle engines typically involves draining the components from the engine sump. The procedure may also involve removing and replacing the engine oil filter. T...
