Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of engine auxiliary equipment, and in particular relates to an oil receiving device for draining oil from an aircraft engine. Background Technology

[0002] When aircraft engines undergo regular maintenance, repair, or oil changes, oil draining is required. In order to collect the drained oil, prevent it from polluting the apron environment, and facilitate recycling, specialized oil receiving equipment is usually needed. Traditional oil receiving devices often use a simple funnel structure, which often has problems such as inconvenient installation, poor adaptability, easy leakage, and difficult cleaning when dealing with the complex structure and limited space of aircraft engine compartments.

[0003] However, such devices typically have the following drawbacks: First, their suspension structures are mostly rigid or at a fixed angle, making it difficult to fine-tune the precise position of the oil drain port for different engine models. This can lead to inaccurate alignment or insecure installation, posing a risk of oil splashing. Second, the inner wall of the funnel easily retains viscous oil or accumulates grease after draining, causing waste and pollution. Long-term use can also easily lead to blockage of the funnel outlet, making cleaning and maintenance extremely inconvenient. Therefore, we provide an oil drain catcher for aircraft engines to solve the above-mentioned problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an oil catcher for draining oil from an aircraft engine. Through the combination of a movable hook, a fixed hook, and a wire rope, the suspension angle and position can be flexibly adjusted according to the location of the engine drain port. At the same time, the use of a linkage ring and a scraper effectively prevents oil residue and funnel blockage.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: This utility model is an oil receiving device for draining oil from an aircraft engine, including a funnel. Two sets of fixed hooks are welded to the upper part of the outer wall of the funnel and are evenly distributed in a ring along the periphery of the funnel. A movable hook is provided directly above each set of fixed hooks. The movable hooks are connected to the fixed hooks directly below them by a steel wire rope.

[0018] 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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model. Example

[0019] Please see Figures 1 to 4 This utility model is an oil receiving device for aircraft engine oil draining, including a funnel 1. The funnel 1 serves as the main container of the oil receiving device, used to collect oil drained from the aircraft engine. Its design ensures that the oil flows in a concentrated manner to the outlet, avoiding leakage or splashing. Two sets of fixed hooks 102 are welded to the upper part of the outer wall of the funnel 1 in a ring evenly distributed manner along the periphery of the funnel 1. A movable hook 3 is provided directly above each set of fixed hooks 102. The movable hook 3 is connected to the fixed hook 102 directly below by a steel wire rope 301. The movable hook 3 is connected to the fixed hook 102 by the steel wire rope 301. The movable hook 3 can be adjusted at will, thereby allowing the oil receiving device to adjust the suspension position and angle within a certain range, so as to adapt to different installation environments and enhance the installation flexibility of the funnel 1. The steel wire rope 301 provides a flexible and adjustable connection method, so that the entire oil receiving device can adapt to the oil draining needs of different parts of the engine and can maintain a firm connection. A linkage ring 4 is provided on the upper part of the inner wall of the funnel 1. Four sets of scraper blades 401 are fixed on the lower end face of the linkage ring 4 and are evenly distributed in a ring along the circumference. The linkage ring 4 is controlled to slide inside the funnel 1, thereby driving the scraper blades 401 to move on the inner wall of the funnel 1. This can remove residual oil or impurities, promote oil flow, keep the inner wall of the funnel 1 clean, and prevent blockage at the bottom of the funnel 1. An end head 101 is provided at the lower end of the funnel 1. A quick connector 2 is fitted on the lower end face of the end head 101. The oil pipe is installed on the quick connector 2, which allows the funnel 1 to be connected to the container through the oil pipe, reducing the risk of oil leakage and improving operating efficiency.

[0020] Specifically, an L-shaped strip 404 is fixed on the upper surface of the linkage ring 4 located between the two sets of fixed hooks 102, and each L-shaped strip 404 is hung on the upper part of the funnel 1. The L-shaped strip 404 is hung on the funnel 1, so that the L-shaped strip 404 is used to support the linkage ring 4, so that the linkage ring 4 is stably located in the upper part of the inner side of the funnel 1. The surface wall of the funnel 1 located between the two sets of fixed hooks 102 is provided with sliding grooves 103. Each sliding groove 103 is provided with a slider 403 that connects with the L-shaped strip 404. The slider 403 is set in the sliding groove 103. After the L-shaped strip 404 and the slider 403 are assembled and connected, the sliding groove 103 limits the slider 403. Thus, the slider 403 limits the L-shaped strip 404, so that the L-shaped strip 404 is stably fitted at the upper end of the funnel 1, and the scraper 401 does not vibrate up and down randomly on the inner wall of the funnel 1. The L-shaped bar 404 has a through hole 405 through the side wall of the slider 403. The surface wall of the L-shaped bar 404 is provided with a locking bolt 402 that passes through the through hole 405 and is spirally connected to the slider 403. The locking bolt 402 is passed through the through hole 405 and assembled with the slider 403. Therefore, when the L-shaped bar 404 is moved, the L-shaped bar 404 will drive the slider 403 to move in the sliding groove 103.

[0021] The operation process of this embodiment is as follows: the funnel 1 is suspended at the position of the engine drain port by the fixed hook 102 and the movable hook 3, and the wire rope 301 is adjusted to make the funnel 1 aligned with the drain port. When the engine oil is drained, the oil flows into the funnel 1. The oil pipe and end 101 are connected by the quick connector 2, so that the oil can be discharged into the external container. After the oil is drained, multiple sets of scrapers 401 are controlled to rotate along the inner wall of the funnel 1 to scrape off the oil adhering to the inner wall of the funnel 1 and promote the flow of oil. To clean the inner wall of funnel 1, move the L-shaped bar 404 to rotate the linkage ring 4 and scraper 401 along the inner wall of funnel 1 to scrape away the residue in funnel 1. After cleaning, disconnect the oil pipe from the quick connector 2 and store funnel 1 for easy storage and future use.
