[0022] The technical solution in the embodiments of the present application is to solve the problems mentioned in the above background technology, and the overall idea is as follows:

[0023] See also Figure 1 , an engine plastic oil pan oil filtering device, including a pan assembly 100 and a filter assembly 200.

[0024] The filter assembly 200 can be used to quickly install and fix the plastic engine oil pan 110 so as to filter and inspect the oil flowing out of the oil outlet 120 . The overall structure is simple and low-cost, and is easy to implement and promote.

[0025] See also Figures 1-4 The bottom shell assembly 100 includes an oil pan 110 and an oil outlet hole 120. The oil outlet hole 120 is opened through the bottom wall of the oil pan 110. The filter assembly 200 includes a filter bucket 210 and an elastic hook 220. There are at least two elastic hooks 220. All elastic hooks 220 are fixedly connected to the filter bucket 210. The upper ends of all elastic hooks 220 are bent into a horizontal shape. All elastic hooks 220 are movable and pass through the oil outlet hole 120. All elastic hooks 220 are hung on the inner wall of the oil pan 110 through the horizontal upper end hooks. Here, the external oil drain tank is normally placed below the oil outlet hole 120. Hold all the elastic hooks 220 and bring them together so that they can pass through the oil outlet hole 120 from the lower end. Then release your hand, and all the elastic hooks 220 will reset and unfold, so that the upper section of the elastic hook 220 will hook the oil outlet hole 120 from the inner wall of the oil pan 110 in a horizontal shape, thereby achieving the effect of quickly installing and fixing the plastic engine oil pan 110. The oil flowing out of the oil outlet hole 120 falls into the filter bucket 210 below, and falls into the oil drain tank below after being filtered. The situation of impurities in the current engine oil can be observed from the filtering situation of the filter bucket 210. After filtering, all the elastic hooks 220 can be held together to remove it from the oil pan 110. The operation is very convenient, the overall structure is simple, the cost is low, and it is easy to implement and promote. In summary, the filter assembly 200 can be quickly installed and fixed to the plastic engine oil pan 110, so as to filter and check the oil flowing out of the oil outlet 120, and the overall structure is simple, the cost is low, and it is easy to implement and promote.

[0026] See also Figure 1 and 3 The filter 210 includes a frame 211 and a semicircular mesh 212. The semicircular mesh 212 is fixedly connected to the frame 211, and the frame 211 is fixedly connected to the lower ends of all elastic hooks 220. Here, the semicircular mesh 212 is a metal mesh welded to the circular frame 211 to form a semicircular structure, similar to a kitchen filter spoon, and can be modified using a commercially available filter spoon.

[0027] See also Figure 1 and 3The filter hopper 210 further includes filter paper 213, which is movably placed within the semicircular mesh 212. The filter paper 213 is laid within the semicircular mesh 212 to filter the oil. The semicircular mesh 212 supports the filter paper 213. In this embodiment, the frame 211 extends inward beyond the opening of the semicircular mesh 212, so that the edge of the filter paper 213 can be stuck to the frame 211 and is not easily deflected. The filter paper 213 is easy to lay and replace.

[0028] See also Figure 1-4 The elastic hook 220 includes a connecting rod 221 and a support spring 222. The connecting rods 221 are arranged in pairs, and a support spring 222 is fixedly connected between each pair of connecting rods 221. The lower ends of all connecting rods 221 are fixedly connected to the frame 211. Here, the connecting rod 221 is high in strength but low in elasticity. The support spring 222 is used to elastically connect the two connecting rods 221, so that the upper ends of the two connecting rods 221 can be retracted to allow the horizontal head to pass through the oil outlet 120, and then reset and expand so that the horizontal head can be hung at the oil outlet.

[0029] See also Figure 1 and 4 The support spring 222 is semicircular in shape, with both ends of the support spring 222 rolled into a cylindrical shape. The two ends of the support spring 222 are respectively fixedly sleeved on the corresponding connecting rod 221. Here, the support spring 222 is made of sheet metal material, which is low in cost. The two ends of the support spring 222 are sleeved on the connecting rod 221 in a cylindrical shape, which can increase the connection area and improve the connection strength. Here, the cylindrical end and the connecting rod 221 can be squeezed and deformed together to prevent axial movement, or they can be fixed by welding. In this embodiment, welding is adopted.

[0030] See also Figure 4 There are two support springs 222, and two pairs of connecting rods 221 are provided. The two support springs 222 are independent of each other. Here, the four connecting rods 221 are elastically connected in pairs through two support springs 222. The two support springs 222 are bent upward and downward respectively and can be staggered. The cylindrical positions are at the same height, which ensures the concentration of force, facilitates the grasping operation, and avoids interference.

[0031] See also Figure 1-2 The connecting rods 221 are arranged in two sections. The upper sections of all connecting rods 221 are arranged in parallel, and the lower sections of all connecting rods 221 are arranged in an expanded manner. Two support springs 222 are located in the upper section. Here, the parallel section is approximately the width of the palm, making it easy to grasp all connecting rods 221 with one hand. The expanded section is used to connect to the larger diameter filter bucket 210, and the support springs 222 are located in the parallel section.

[0032] See also Figure 1-3The filter assembly 200 further includes at least three legs 230, all of which are fixedly connected to the frame 211. When the filter assembly 200 is removed after use, it can be placed upright using the legs 230 to prevent residual oil and impurities in the filter hopper 210 from flowing out. In this embodiment, four legs 230 are provided.

[0033] When the present application is used: the external oil drain tank is normally placed below the oil outlet hole 120. By holding all the elastic hooks 220 and bringing them together, the oil outlet hole 120 can be passed from the lower end. Then, by releasing the hand, all the elastic hooks 220 are reset and expanded, so that the horizontal shape of the upper section of the elastic hook 220 hooks the oil outlet hole 120 from the inner wall of the oil pan 110, thereby achieving the effect of quickly installing and fixing the plastic engine oil pan 110. The engine oil flowing out of the oil outlet 120 falls into the filter bucket 210 below, and after being filtered, it falls into the oil drain tank below. The situation filtered by the filter bucket 210 can be used to observe the current engine oil impurity situation. After filtering, by holding all the elastic hooks 220 and bringing them together, the oil pan 110 can be removed from the oil pan 110. The operation is very convenient, the overall structure is simple, the cost is low, and it is easy to implement and promote.

[0034] In summary, the present application utilizes an elastic hook 220 with a horizontal end to quickly install and fix the plastic engine oil pan 110, utilizes the filter bowl 210 to filter and inspect the oil flowing out of the oil outlet 120, and the overall structure is simple and low-cost, making it easy to implement and promote.

[0035] It should be noted that the specific models and specifications of the oil pan 110 and the filter paper 213 need to be selected and determined according to the actual specifications of the device, and the specific selection calculation method adopts the existing technology in this field, so it will not be described in detail.

[0036] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are merely examples for the purpose of illustrating the present invention and are not intended to limit the embodiments. Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that other variations or modifications based on the above description are possible. It is not necessary and impossible to provide an exhaustive list of all embodiments. However, obvious variations or modifications arising therefrom remain within the scope of protection of the present invention.
