[0001] This utility model relates to the field of oil drain pan technology, specifically to automotive oil drain pans. Background Technology

[0002] An oil drain pan is a device used to collect and drain oil leaks during vehicle maintenance and repair. It is commonly used in home garages, small repair shops, and factory workshops. This large plastic pan is designed as a rectangular or round shallow dish, with a capacity typically ranging from a few liters to tens of liters. It effectively collects engine oil, lubricating oil, and other fluids, preventing oil contamination of the floor.

[0003] The peristaltic pumps in existing automotive oil drain pans are all installed on the side wall of the pan. This keeps the peristaltic pump low and prevents it from being high up and obstructing the pan from reaching the bottom of the car. However, because of its low height, workers need to squat down to turn the pump and pump it to deliver the oil from inside the pan to the oil tank. This prolonged squatting and turning can cause damage to the lower back and legs. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, this utility model provides an automotive oil drain plate, which solves the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an automotive oil drain pan, comprising a pan body, two support plates fixed to the top of the pan body, rotating rods rotatably connected inside the support plates, a fixed tube between the two support plates, the two rotating rods and the fixed tube being fixedly connected, a peristaltic pump fixed to the top of the fixed tube, a rubber hose inside the peristaltic pump, the bottom end of the rubber hose passing through the fixed tube and the pan body and located inside the pan body, and a fixed cylinder fixed to the side of the support plate away from the fixed tube;

[0006] A torsion spring is fixed to the outer wall of the rotating rod, and the other end of the torsion spring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the fixed cylinder. An L-shaped rod is fixed to the left side of the disc body. A bayonet is provided at the top of the L-shaped rod, and a locking hole is provided on the inner rear surface of the bayonet. A storage hole is provided on the rear surface of the fixed tube, and a compression spring is fixed inside the storage hole. A locking block is fixed to the other end of the compression spring. Rollers are installed on both the left and right sides of the disc body, and a handle is fixed to the outer wall of the input shaft of the peristaltic pump.

[0012] This utility model provides an oil drain plate for automobiles. Compared with the prior art, it has the following advantages:

[0013] 1. This automotive oil drain pan, through the installation of a fixed pipe, torsion spring, rotating rod, support plate, fixed cylinder, L-shaped rod, locking block, pressing block, and top block, allows the peristaltic pump to be moved downwards during oil collection. The fixed pipe rotates downwards, and the locking block engages with the locking hole, fixing the peristaltic pump below. This allows the device to be moved below the car to collect oil. After oil collection is complete, pressing the pressing block moves the top block, which in turn pushes the locking block, causing it to move out of the locking hole. The torsion spring then returns the fixed pipe and peristaltic pump to their original positions, allowing the peristaltic pump to return to its higher position. The rubber hose is then inserted into the oil drum, and the handle is turned to activate the peristaltic pump, which then transports the oil from inside the pan to the inside of the oil drum.

[0014] 2. The oil drain pan of this car is equipped with a fixing plate and anti-collision rubber pads. When the torsion spring rotates the rotating rod, fixing tube and peristaltic pump back to the original position, the fixing plate can block the rotation of the fixing tube, and the anti-collision rubber pads can absorb shocks to the fixing tube and prevent the fixing tube from being damaged.

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] Please see Figures 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: an automotive oil drain pan, including a pan body 10. Two support plates 25 are fixed to the top of the pan body 10. A rotating rod 23 is rotatably connected inside the support plates 25. A fixed tube 4 is provided between the two support plates 25. The two rotating rods 23 and the fixed tube 4 are fixedly connected. A peristaltic pump 2 is fixed to the top of the fixed tube 4. A rubber hose 1 is provided inside the peristaltic pump 2. The bottom end of the rubber hose 1 passes through the fixed tube 4 and the pan body 10, and is located inside the pan body 10. A fixed cylinder 22 is fixed to the side of the support plate 25 away from the fixed tube 4. A torsion spring 24 is fixed to the outer wall of the rotating rod 23. The other end of the torsion spring 24 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the fixed cylinder 22. An L-shaped rod 5 is fixed to the left side of the pan body 10. A latch 16 is provided at the top of the L-shaped rod 5. A groove is provided on the inner rear surface of the latch 16. The back surface of the fixing tube 4 has a storage hole 14 with a card hole 18. A compression spring 13 is fixed inside the storage hole 14, and a locking block 15 is fixed to the other end of the compression spring 13. Rollers 9 are installed on both the left and right sides of the disc body 10. A handle 3 is fixed to the outer wall of the input shaft of the peristaltic pump 2, which can adjust the height of the peristaltic pump 2 for easy use. A push handle 7 is rotatably connected to the top of the disc body 10. Two anti-slip rubber layers 6 are fixed to the outer wall of the handle 7 to facilitate the movement of the device. An interception net frame 12 is provided above the disc body 10. Two handles 11 are fixed to the top of the interception net frame 12 to prevent large impurities from entering the interior of the disc body 10. A drain pipe 8 is fixed to the left side of the disc body 10. A valve is provided inside the drain pipe 8 to discharge impurities inside the disc body 10.

[0022] Furthermore, a circular hole 17 is provided on the rear surface of the L-shaped rod 5. A return spring 20 is fixed inside the circular hole 17. A pressing block 21 is fixed to the other end of the return spring 20. A top block 19 is fixed to the front end of the pressing block 21. The front end of the top block 19 is located inside the locking hole 18, so that the locking block 15 can be moved out of the locking hole 18.

[0023] Furthermore, a fixing plate 27 is fixed to the top of the disc 10, and an anti-collision rubber pad 26 is fixed to the left side of the fixing plate 27, which can prevent the rotation of the fixing tube 4.

[0024] During operation, when receiving oil, move the peristaltic pump 2 downwards, and rotate the fixed tube 4 and the rotating rod 23 to the left. The rotation of the rotating rod 23 deforms the torsion spring 24, and the rotation of the fixed tube 4 causes the locking block 15 to engage with the inside of the locking hole 18, fixing the peristaltic pump 2 at the bottom. This allows the device to be moved under the car to receive oil, preventing the peristaltic pump 2 and the fixed tube 4 from obstructing access under the car. After the oil is received, press the pressing block 21. The pressing block 21 moves the top block 19, and the top block 19 pushes the locking block 15 to move. The locking block 15 moves out of the locking hole 18, and the torsion spring 24, along with the rotating rod 23, the fixed tube 4, and the peristaltic pump 2, returns to their original positions. This returns the peristaltic pump 2 to a higher position, making it easier for the user and avoiding the inconvenience of turning it when it is at a lower position. Then, insert the rubber hose 1 into the oil drum and rotate the handle 3. The rotation of the handle 3 makes the peristaltic pump 2 work, and the peristaltic pump 2 delivers the oil from the disc 10 to the inside of the oil drum.
