Description

오일게이지{Oil gauge}Oil Gauge

본 발명은 오일게이지에 관한 것으로서, 특히 오일게이지의 몸체 하단에 다단의 톱니부로 형성된 접촉부를 형성하여 상기 접촉부에 오일이 묻어있는 상태에서 오일게이지를 오일팬으로부터 빼낼때 오일게이지가 오일팬의 게이지삽입부 내벽면에 접촉되더라도 상기 톱니부에 묻어있는 오일이 번지지 않게되므로서 사용자가 오일의 잔여량을 정확하게 판별하여 교체시기를 설정할 수 있도록 한 오일게이지에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to an oil gauge, and in particular, when the oil gauge is removed from the oil pan while the oil gauge is removed from the oil pan in the state where the oil is in contact with the contact part formed by the teeth of the multistage at the bottom of the body of the oil gauge, The present invention relates to an oil gauge that allows a user to accurately determine the remaining amount of oil and set a replacement time even when the oil on the toothed portion is prevented from spreading even when the inner wall surface is in contact with the inner wall.

일반적으로 오일게이지라 함은 엔진의 오일팬 내부에 담겨있는 오일의 양과 오일교체시기를 확인하기 위한 장치를 말한다.In general, the oil gauge refers to a device for checking the amount of oil contained in the oil pan of the engine and when to replace the oil.

도 1 은 종래의 오일게이지를 도시한 것으로서,1 shows a conventional oil gauge,

링 모양으로 형성된 손잡이(10)의 하측으로 바 형태의 몸체(2)가 일정길이 형성되고, 상기 몸체(2)의 하단부에는 오일팬에 담겨있는 오일의 하한선과 상한선을 표시하기 위한 표시눈금(3,4)이 일정간격으로 그어져 있으며, 상기의 몸체(2)는 오일팬의 상측에 형성되어있는 게이지 삽입부(5)에 끼워지게 된다.A bar-shaped body 2 is formed to have a predetermined length to the lower side of the handle 10 formed in a ring shape, and a display scale 3 for displaying a lower limit and an upper limit of oil contained in an oil pan at a lower end of the body 2. (4) is drawn at regular intervals, the body (2) is fitted to the gauge insert (5) formed on the upper side of the oil pan.

상기 게이지 삽입부(5)에 몸체(2)가 끼워지면 몸체(2)의 하단부가 오일팬의 하측에 위치하면서 오일에 일정부분 잠기게되고, 그 오일의 유면이 표시눈금(3,4)의 사이에 위치하면서 오일의 잔여량을 사용자가 확인할 수 있게되는 것이다.When the body 2 is fitted to the gauge insertion part 5, the lower end of the body 2 is positioned under the oil pan and is partially immersed in oil, and the oil level of the oil is on the display scales 3 and 4. It is located in between to allow the user to check the remaining amount of oil.

즉, 오일게이지가 게이지 삽입부(5)에 삽입된 상태에서 사용자가 오일의 잔여량을 체크하기위해 오일게이지를 게이지 삽입부(5)로부터 빼내면, 상기 몸체(2)의 표시눈금(3,4) 사이에 오일이 묻어있게 되므로서 사용자는 그 오일이 묻어있는 위치로서 오일의 잔여량을 확인하는 것이다.That is, when the user removes the oil gauge from the gauge insert 5 to check the remaining amount of oil while the oil gauge is inserted into the gauge insert 5, the display scales 3 and 4 of the body 2 are removed. As the oil is on the floor, the user checks the oil level as the location of the oil.

그러나, 종래에는 오일게이지를 게이지 삽입부로부터 빼낼때 몸체 부분이 게이지 삽입부의 벽면에 접촉할때 몸체에 묻어있는 오일이 번지면서 사용자가 정확한 오일의 잔여량을 판단하지 못하게되는 문제점이 있으며, 또한 상기와같이 오일이 번졌을경우 몸체의 하단부를 깨끗히 닥은 후 다시 오일팬에 삽입하였다가 꺼내에오일의 잔여량을 파악해야만 하는 불편함이 가중되고 있었다.However, in the related art, when the oil gauge is removed from the gauge insert, when the body part contacts the wall of the gauge insert, the oil on the body is smeared and the user cannot determine the correct amount of oil. When oil spreads like this, the lower part of the body is cleanly shut, and then inserted into the oil pan again, and the inconvenience of having to grasp the residual amount of oil was increasing.

또한, 대부분의 운전자들이 오일의 색깔로서 오일의 교체시기를 정확하게 판단할 수 없는 실정이므로 오일팬 내에 오일이 어느정도 남아 있더라도 오일게이지에 묻어있는 오일의 색깔을 보고 교체여부를 사용자 스스로 판단할 수 없게되어 잘못하면 오일의 교체시기를 놓치게되는 문제점이 발생하고 있었다.In addition, since most drivers cannot determine the time of oil replacement as the color of oil, even if there is some oil remaining in the oil pan, the user cannot judge the replacement of the oil by looking at the color of oil on the oil gauge. There was a problem that missed the time to replace the oil if wrong.

따라서 상기 문제점을 해결하기 위한 본 발명은 오일게이지의 몸체 하단에 다단의 톱니부로 형성된 접촉부를 형성하여 상기 접촉부에 오일이 묻어있는 상태에서 오일게이지를 오일팬으로부터 빼낼때 오일게이지가 오일팬의 게이지삽입부 내벽면에 접촉되더라도 상기 톱니부에 묻어있는 오일이 번지지 않게되므로서 사용자가 오일의 잔여량을 정확하게 판별하여 교체시기를 설정할 수 있도록 한 오일게이지를 제공함을 목적으로 한다.Therefore, the present invention for solving the above problems is formed by the contact portion formed by the teeth of the multi-stage at the bottom of the body of the oil gauge when the oil gauge is removed from the oil pan in the state where the oil is in contact with the oil gauge is inserted into the gauge of the oil pan It is an object of the present invention to provide an oil gauge that allows the user to accurately determine the remaining amount of oil and set a replacement time even when the oil on the toothed portion does not spread even when it is in contact with the inner wall surface.

상기 목적달성을 위한 본 발명은,The present invention for achieving the above object,

손잡이의 하측으로 오일팬의 게이지 삽입부에 삽입되기 위한 일정길이의 몸체가 형성되고, 상기 몸체의 하단부에 오일의 하한선과 상한선을 표시하기위한 표시눈금이 일정간격으로 표시되어 있는 오일게이지에 있어서,In the oil gauge having a certain length of the body is inserted into the gauge insertion portion of the oil pan to the lower side of the handle, and the display scale for displaying the lower and upper limit of the oil at the lower end of the body at regular intervals,

다단의 톱니부로서 구성된 고무재질의 접촉부를 상기 표시눈금의 사이에 위치하도록 몸체의 하단 일측에 부착한 것을 특징으로 한다.It characterized in that the contact portion of the rubber material configured as a multi-stage teeth portion is attached to one side of the lower end of the body to be located between the display scale.

이하, 첨부된 도면 도 2 내지 도 4 를 참조하여 본 발명의 바람직한 실시예를 설명하면 다음과 같다.Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings, FIGS. 2 to 4.

본 발명의 오일게이지는 링형상의 손잡이(10) 하측으로 일정길이의 몸체(11)가 형성되고, 상기 몸체(11)의 하단에는 오일의 하한선과 상한선을 표시하기위한 표시눈금(12,13)이 일정간격으로 형성되어 있다.Oil gauge of the present invention is formed a body 11 of a predetermined length to the lower side of the ring-shaped handle 10, the lower end of the body 11, the display scale for displaying the lower limit and the upper limit of the oil (12, 13) It is formed at regular intervals.

본 발명의 가장 큰 특징은 상기 표시눈금(12,13)의 사이에 위치하도록 고무재질로 형성된 별도의 접촉부(15)를 형성한 것이다.The biggest feature of the present invention is to form a separate contact portion 15 formed of a rubber material so as to be located between the display scales 12 and 13.

상기 접촉부(15)는 오일게이지가 오일팬 내부에 삽입되었을때 오일이 접촉되는 부분으로서, 도 4 에 도시된 바와같이 다단의 톱니부(16)가 돌출 형성되어 있다.The contact portion 15 is a portion in which oil is contacted when the oil gauge is inserted into the oil pan, and as shown in FIG. 4, a multi-stage tooth portion 16 protrudes.

상기와같이 다단의 톱니부(16)가 돌출 형성되어있는 접촉부(15)를 몸체(11)에 부착하게되면, 몸체(11)가 오일팬 내부에 삽입되어 상기 접촉부(15)에 오일이 묻게되면, 톱니부(16)에 오일이 머금게 되므로 몸체(11)를 오일팬으로 부터 빼낼때 몸체(11)가 게이지 삽입부의 내벽면에 접촉되더라도 상기 톱니부(16)에 묻어있는 오일이 상하로 번지지 않게되어 사용자가 오일이 묻어있는 위치를 정확하게 판단할 수 있게된다.When the contact portion 15 having the multi-stage teeth portion 16 protrudes as described above is attached to the body 11, the body 11 is inserted into the oil pan and the oil is deposited on the contact portion 15. , Oil is contained in the tooth portion 16, so that the oil buried in the tooth portion 16 does not spread up and down even when the body 11 contacts the inner wall surface of the gauge insert when the body 11 is removed from the oil pan. This allows the user to accurately determine where the oil is.

한편, 상기 톱니부(16)의 표면(17) 중앙부분은 도 4 에 도시된 바와같이 그중앙부분이 오목하게 파이도록 형성되어 있으므로 오일게이지를 게이지 삽입부로 부터 빼낼때 상기 접촉부(15)가 게이지 삽입부의 내벽면에 접촉되더라도 톱니부(16)의 중앙부분은 절대 게이지 삽입부의 내벽면에 접촉되지 않게되므로서 접촉부(15)에 묻어있는 오일이 번지지 않게된다.On the other hand, the center portion of the surface 17 of the tooth 16 is formed so that the center portion is concave, as shown in Figure 4 so that when the oil gauge is removed from the gauge insert portion the contact portion 15 is gauged Even if it contacts the inner wall surface of the insertion part, the center part of the tooth | gear part 16 will never contact the inner wall surface of a gauge insertion part, and the oil in the contact part 15 will not spread.

그리고, 상기 접촉부(15)를 흰색으로 설정하여 접촉부(15)에 묻어있는 오일의 위치를 사용자가 보다 정확하게 파악할 수 있도록 하였다.Then, the contact portion 15 is set to white so that the user can more accurately grasp the position of the oil buried in the contact portion 15.

한편, 상기 몸체(11)의 상단에는 사용자가 오일의 교체시기를 비교 분석할 수 있도록 하는 표시바(14)를 부착하였는데, 이 표시바(14)는 교체시기에 다다른 오일의 색깔과 동일한 색상을 가지도록 하였다.On the other hand, the top of the body 11 is attached to the display bar 14 to allow the user to compare the analysis of the replacement time of the oil, the display bar 14 is the same color as the color of the oil different at the replacement time To have.

따라서, 사용자가 오일게이지를 꺼내어 접촉부(15)에 묻어있는 오일의 색상과 상기 표시바(14)의 색상을 비교하여 어느정도 비슷할경우 오일이 교체시기에 임박한 것으로 판단하게 되는 것이다.Therefore, when the user takes out the oil gauge and compares the color of the oil buried in the contact portion 15 with the color of the display bar 14, it is determined that the oil is imminent at the time of replacement when it is somewhat similar.

특히 상기 접촉부(15)가 고무재질로 형성된 흰색으로 형성되어 있으므로 접촉부(15)에 묻어있는 오일의 색깔을 사용자가 보다 정확히 판단할 수 있게되므로서, 오일의 교체시기를 정확하게 비교할 수 있게된다.In particular, since the contact portion 15 is formed of a rubber material white, the user can more accurately determine the color of the oil buried in the contact portion 15, it is possible to accurately compare the replacement time of the oil.

이상에서 설명한 바와같이 본발명은 오일게이지의 몸체 하단에 다단의 톱니부로 형성된 접촉부를 형성하여 상기 접촉부에 오일이 묻어있는 상태에서 오일게이지를 오일팬으로부터 빼낼때 오일게이지가 오일팬의 게이지삽입부 내벽면에 접촉되더라도 상기 톱니부에 묻어있는 오일이 번지지 않게되므로서 사용자가 오일의 잔여량을 정확하게 판별하여 교체시기를 설정할 수 있도록 한 오일게이지를 제공하는 효과를 기대할 수 있다.As described above, the present invention forms a contact portion formed by a multi-stage teeth at the bottom of the body of the oil gauge so that when the oil gauge is removed from the oil pan while the oil is in the contact portion, the oil gauge is inserted into the gauge insertion portion of the oil pan. Since the oil buried in the tooth portion does not spread even when it is in contact with the wall surface, it is possible to expect the effect of providing an oil gauge so that the user can accurately determine the remaining amount of oil and set the replacement time.
