TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of automobile oil, in particular to an oil collecting and shunting device. BACKGROUND

[0002] How to handle the used oil of the automobile belongs to an important environmental protection concern project. Since the used oil contains a large amount of metal particles, waste gas and residues, if not handled correctly, it may cause serious pollution to the soil and water source, and harm the health of the ecological system. Therefore, in the prior art, a pumping device is used to pump the used oil from the engine, gearbox and other devices, then the pumped waste oil is handled and discharged.

[0003] However, even the used waste oil can be cleaned and reused, and the existing technology of treating all waste oil uniformly inevitably causes a lot of waste. The additional use of a container to collect and observe causes cumbersome operation and carrying trouble. CONTENT OF THE UTILITY MODEL

[0004] Therefore, the present application provides an oil collecting and shunting device to solve the problem of waste caused by the uniform treatment of all waste oil in the prior art or the problem of cumbersome operation.

[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the present application provides the following technical solution:

[0006] An oil collecting and shunting device comprises an oil receiving disc, an oil outlet pipe, a three-way valve and a liquid storage tank. The oil receiving disc is used to receive oil, the upper end of the oil receiving disc is open, and the opening diameter of the upper end is larger than that of the lower end. The upper end of the oil outlet pipe is connected with the oil receiving disc, and the lower end is connected with the inlet of the three-way valve. One outlet of the three-way valve is connected with a connecting pipe, and the connecting pipe is installed on the top of the liquid storage tank.

[0007] A collecting barrel is sleeved on the outer side of the middle part of the oil outlet pipe, and the collecting barrel is made of transparent material. An oil outlet hole is formed in the side wall of the oil outlet pipe and communicates with the collecting barrel.

[0008] Optionally, a one-way valve is arranged at a position close to the inlet in the three-way valve.

[0009] Optionally, the other outlet of the three-way valve is connected with a water outlet pipe, and a switch is installed on the water outlet pipe.

[0010] Optionally, the oil outlet hole is located at a position close to the bottom of the collecting barrel.

[0011] Optionally, a scale is arranged on the side wall of the collecting barrel.

[0012] Optionally, a vacuum device mounting hole and an oil pumping hole are formed in the collecting barrel.

[0013] Optionally, both the vacuum device mounting hole and the oil extraction hole are located on the top wall of the collection tank.

[0014] Optionally, the oil outlet pipe is a telescopic structure, and the telescopic position is higher than the top wall of the collection tank.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, this application has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0016] 1. By attaching a collection bucket to the outside of the oil outlet pipe, the oil flowing out after closing the three-way valve can directly enter the collection bucket along the oil outlet, facilitating observation of the oil condition. For oils of different qualities, different outlets of the three-way valve can be opened for targeted treatment. This device is simple to operate, portable, and avoids oil waste.

[0017] 2. The one-way valve prevents the oil in the reservoir from flowing back.

[0018] 3. The oil outlet is located near the bottom of the collection bucket, which can prevent excessive oil accumulation in the oil outlet pipe and ensure that most of the oil enters the collection bucket, reducing the error in judging the amount of oil collected. Attached Figure Description

[0025] The application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] In the description of the present application: unless otherwise specified, the meaning of "a plurality of" is two or more than two. The terms "first", "second", "third" and the like in the present application are intended to distinguish the objects referred to, and do not have a special meaning in the technical connotation aspect (for example, it should not be understood as emphasizing the importance or order, etc.). The expressions such as "include", "contain", "have" and the like also mean "not limited to" (some units, components, materials, steps, etc.).

[0027] The terms such as "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "intermediate" and the like referred to in the present application are generally made for the purpose of indicating the relative position relationship for intuitive understanding with reference to the drawings, and are not an absolute limitation on the position relationship in the actual product.

[0028] An oil collecting and shunting device, referring to Figures 1-3 , comprising an oil receiving tray 1, an oil outlet pipe 2, a three-way valve 3 and a liquid reservoir 4, the oil receiving tray 1 is used to receive oil, the upper end of the oil receiving tray 1 is open and the opening diameter is larger than that of the lower end, forming a funnel shape to facilitate the receiving of oil.

[0029] A connecting pipe 5 is installed on the top of the collecting bucket 8, and the top of the connecting pipe 5 is connected with one of the outlets of the three-way valve 3. The upper end of the oil outlet pipe 2 is connected with the oil receiving tray 1, and the lower end is connected with the inlet of the three-way valve 3. The other outlet of the three-way valve 3 is connected with a water outlet pipe 6, and a switch is installed on the water outlet pipe 6. In the embodiment of the present application, the water outlet pipe 6 is replaced by a switch selection faucet.

[0030] In use, the flow direction of the oil can be controlled by the three-way valve 3, so that different quality oils can be conveniently connected into the corresponding containers.

[0031] Further, a one-way valve plate 7, i.e. a three-way one-way valve, is arranged at a position close to the inlet inside the three-way valve 3. Through the one-way valve plate 7, when the pressure at the upper end of the oil outlet pipe 2 is less than that at the lower end, the backflow of the oil in the liquid reservoir 4 is prevented.

[0032] In order to facilitate the observation of the quality of the oil, a collecting bucket 8 is sleeved on the outside of the middle part of the oil outlet pipe 2, and the diameter of the collecting bucket 8 is larger, which is used to directly receive the oil. The three-way valve 3 is below the collecting bucket 8, which is used to open and close the passage of the oil outlet pipe 2 to the liquid reservoir 4, so that when the inlet of the three-way valve 3 is closed, the oil flowing out of the oil outlet pipe 2 will not flow into the liquid reservoir 4. Correspondingly, an oil outlet hole 9 is formed on the side wall of the oil outlet pipe 2, which is in communication with the collecting bucket 8, so that the oil in the oil outlet pipe 2 flows into the collecting bucket 8 for collection.

[0033] The collecting barrel 8 is made of transparent material, and a scale is arranged on the side wall of the collecting barrel 8. On the one hand, the transparent material facilitates observation of the color of the flowing-out engine oil, and the quality of the engine oil can be determined by observing the color and the number of impurities visible to the naked eye; on the other hand, the scale can more accurately measure the amount of the engine oil.

[0034] In order to make the measurement result more accurate and reduce errors, the oil outlet hole 9 is arranged on the oil outlet pipe 2 at a position close to the bottom of the collecting barrel 8. Meanwhile, the position of the three-way valve 3 is also arranged on the oil outlet pipe 2 at a position close to the bottom of the collecting barrel 8. By reducing the distance between the three-way valve 3 and the oil outlet hole 9 as much as possible, the accumulation of the engine oil between the two is reduced, so that most of the engine oil in the oil outlet pipe 2 can directly flow into the collecting barrel 8 to be measured, thereby reducing the measurement error.

[0035] Further, the oil outlet pipe 2 is arranged in a telescopic structure, and the telescopic position is higher than the top wall of the collecting barrel 8. By adjusting the overall length of the oil outlet pipe 2, the oil receiving device can be suitable for vehicles with different chassis heights.

[0036] Specifically, the oil outlet pipe 2 includes an inner pipe 21 and an outer pipe 22. The outer pipe 22 is slidably sleeved on the lower section of the inner pipe 21, and the upper end of the outer pipe 22 is further rotationally connected with a knob for limiting the sliding of the outer pipe 22, and the oil outlet pipe 2 is fixed by rotating the knob. The knob belongs to mature prior art, and thus will not be described herein.

[0037] The upper end of the inner pipe 21 is connected with the oil receiving disc 1, the lower end of the outer pipe 22 is connected with the three-way valve 3, and the collecting barrel 8 is arranged on the outer pipe 22.

[0038] In addition to the above-mentioned oil receiving mode, another oil receiving mode is arranged on the basis of the device.

[0039] A vacuum device mounting hole 10 and an oil extraction hole 11 are arranged on the collecting barrel 8, and the vacuum device mounting hole 10 and the oil extraction hole 11 are arranged on the top wall of the collecting barrel 8. In use, a vacuum environment between the collecting barrel 8 and the oil outlet pipe 2 is established by a vacuum device. By externally connecting an oil extraction pipe to the oil extraction hole 11, the engine oil can be extracted by using air pressure.

[0040] Correspondingly, a valve 12 is arranged on the upper part of the oil outlet pipe 2 close to the oil receiving disc 1. When the vacuum oil extraction mode is used, the valve 12 and the three-way valve 3 need to be closed at the same time to avoid air circulation.

[0041] The implementation principle of the embodiment of the present application is as follows: before collecting the engine oil, the three-way valve 3 and the switch of the connecting pipe 5 are closed to prevent the engine oil from directly flowing into the liquid storage device 4 and being preliminarily collected in the collecting barrel 8. The amount and quality of the collected engine oil are observed through the collecting barrel 8. According to the pollution condition of the engine oil, different outlets of the three-way valve 3 are selected to be opened.

[0042] If the oil is heavily contaminated, the outlet near the connection pipe 5 is opened, and the oil flows into the reservoir 4. If the oil can be cleaned and reused, another outlet is opened, and the switch of the connection pipe 5 is opened, so that the oil is discharged into another container for collection and treatment.

[0043] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any manner (as long as the combination of the technical features does not exist contradictions), and for the sake of brevity, all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are not described; the embodiments not explicitly written should also be considered as the scope of the present disclosure.
