The present invention relates to an oil injection guide device, and more particularly, to an oil injection guide device for preventing oil from flowing out in a process of injecting engine oil and mission oil.

The engine of the vehicle includes a piston reciprocating inside the cylinder, a connecting rod for converting the reciprocating motion of the piston into a rotational motion, a crankshaft and various valve mechanisms connected to the connecting rod for transmitting rotational force to the transmission side, and the like. It consists of components that require lubrication and cooling as they operate at high speeds and are exposed to high temperatures.

On the other hand, the oil inlet for refilling the oil into the oil pan is generally provided on one side of the cylinder head cover covering the cylinder head top. The oil injected into this oil inlet is supplemented to the oil pan through the valve mechanism provided on the upper portion of the cylinder head and the oil gallery provided in the middle of the cylinder head and the cylinder block.

However, the oil in the oil pan is contaminated or deteriorated due to the characteristics of the oil in the process of circulating the engine, thereby lowering the cooling and lubricating performance of the engine. In view of this point, in the case of a vehicle driven over a certain distance, the engine oil may be replaced at predetermined driving distances, or oil may be replenished after checking the condition of the oil from time to time.

To change the oil in the engine, first open the drain valve provided in the lower part of the oil pan to discharge the waste oil stored in the oil pan. Then, when the oil in the oil pan is completely discharged, close the oil drain valve and then through the oil inlet. The oil needs to be replenished.

In addition, since most of the engine oil supplied on the market is supplied in a container having a predetermined size, the oil container is lifted upside down and poured into the oil inlet when the oil is injected. In this process, even if the operator pays close attention to prevent the oil from flowing out of the oil inlet, the oil may fall out of the oil inlet.

Meanwhile, in order to prevent the oil from falling out of the oil inlet, as shown in FIG. 3, a separate funnel 13 in the state where the filler cap 12 is opened in the oil inlet 11 provided at the upper portion of the oil storage container 10. To place the oil in. However, when using a funnel, there is an inconvenience caused by the detachment of the funnel in the mechanic of the vehicle, which is not actually used much.

Therefore, when replenishing the engine oil, not only the engine periphery is contaminated by the oil flowing during the oil injection, but when the flowed oil comes into contact with the heat generating unit, there is a problem that smoke is generated during the evaporation of the oil.

Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide an oil injection guide device for preventing oil from flowing out in the process of injecting engine oil and mission oil.

The present invention as a means for achieving the above object,

In the oil inlet formed on the upper side of the oil reservoir to inject oil into the engine and the mission,

Inside the oil inlet is provided a folding funnel formed to sequentially fold a plurality of truncated conical pipes of which diameter is reduced step by step,                         

Between the spring seat provided on the lower side of the upper end of the folding funnel and the upper surface of the oil storage container is interposed with a spring for unfolding the folding funnel,

The outer side of the oil inlet is characterized in that the pressing portion provided on the inner lower surface during the locking process by pressing the upper end of the folding funnel, the filler cap for the folding funnel is folded operation.

Hereinafter, the configuration and operation of the oil injection guide device formed by the present invention will be described in detail with the accompanying drawings.

1 is a configuration diagram of an oil injection guide device according to the present invention, Figure 2 is an operating state diagram of the oil injection guide device according to the present invention.

Reference numeral 20 shown in the drawings indicates an oil storage container formed by the present invention, and reference numeral 30 indicates a folding funnel according to the present invention.

The oil storage container 20 is a container for storing the oil required for the operation of the engine and the operation of the mission in the drawings for explaining the embodiment of the present invention, although the cross-sectional shape is shown as a rectangular shape in each engine and mission Thus, the shape is determined.

An oil inlet 21 for replenishing oil is formed at an upper side of the oil storage container 20, and a screw-type fastening structure is formed at an outer circumference of the oil inlet 21 to fasten the filler cap 22. do.

And the inside of the oil inlet 21 is formed a folding funnel 30 to be used for oil replenishment. The folding funnel 30 is formed so that a plurality of truncated conical pipes of which diameter is gradually reduced.

A lower locking jaw 32a is formed at the lowermost lower pipe 32 of the folding funnel 30 so as not to be separated from the oil inlet 21, and a spring 40 is provided at an upper side of the upper pipe 31 provided at the uppermost end. A spring sheet 31a is formed to allow one end of the to be seated.

An upper side of the spring sheet 31a is provided with an oil receiver 34 to prevent the oil from leaking to the outside when the oil is injected.

In addition, a spring 40 is interposed between the spring seat 31a provided on the upper pipe 31 of the folding funnel 30 and the upper surface of the oil storage container 20 so that the folding funnel 30 is a spring 40. It is formed to be unfolded by the elasticity of.

On the other hand, the folding funnel (30) unfolded by the elasticity of the spring 40 has an inner bottom surface of the filler cap 22 in the process of mounting the filler cap 22 to the oil inlet 21 is the oil receiving 34 By pressing the top of the) is configured to be folded process. To this end, the pressing portion 23 is protruded on the inner lower surface of the filler cap 22.

The plurality of truncated cone-shaped intermediate pipes 33 constituting the folding funnel 30 is gradually reduced in diameter toward the lower side. In addition, the lower end inner diameter of the pipe is formed so as not to be larger than the upper outer diameter of the pipe located in the inner side so as not to be separated between the neighboring pipes in the process of unfolding by the elasticity of the spring 40.

Briefly introducing the process of replenishing oil in the oil storage container 20 configured as described above are as follows.

When the mechanic of the vehicle refills the engine or the mission, the filler cap 22 is first turned in the opening direction.

As the filler cap 22 is opened, the force applied to the spring 40 by the pressing portion 23 is released, and the folding funnel 30 gradually starts from the upper pipe 31 by the elastic force of the spring 40. It is raised and all the pipes are laid out.

When the mechanic of the vehicle pours oil into the oil receiver 34 provided at the upper portion of the foldable funnel 30 extended as described above, the oil is replenished in the oil storage container 20 through the foldable funnel extended upward.

In the oil replenishment state, the operator can be folded in turn to each pipe forming the folding funnel (30) while pressing the oil receiving portion 34 to the lower portion 23 of the filler cap (22). When the filler cap 22 is mounted to the oil inlet 21, the folding funnel 30 is completely folded.

The filler cap 22 is screwed into the oil inlet 21 so that the mounting state can be maintained.

According to the present invention configured as described above, the operator does not have to use a funnel in the process of replenishing the oil storage container provided in the engine or the mission, thereby improving the convenience of the operator according to the oil replenishment, oil injection process There is a great advantage in that the oil is prevented from leaking out of the oil inlet.
