It is characterized in that to facilitate the inspection of the oil easily.

일반적으로 자동차는 최적의 주행 성능을 유지하기 위하여 엔진 및 트랜스미션에 윤활유인 오일을 충전하고 있다.In general, automobiles are filled with lubricating oil in the engine and transmission to maintain optimal driving performance.

그리고, 매일 아침 또는 장거리 운행전에는 차량 점검의 일환으로 오일량을 점검하게 되는데, 그 점검 방법으로는 자동차를 평탄한 곳에 주차시킨 후 오일 게이지를 뽑아 깨끗이 닦은 다음 다시 끼웠다 빼서 점검하는 것이다.In addition, every morning or before long-distance operation, the oil level is checked as part of the vehicle inspection. The inspection method is to park the car on a flat place, remove the oil gauge, clean it, and then insert it again to remove the inspection.

즉, 오일 게이지의 스틱에는 최대선(max)과 최소선(min)이 표시되어 있는데, 점검시 오일의 수준이 최소선과 최대선의 사이를 유지하면 정상이며, 오일의수준이 최소선까지 내려가 있으면, 최소선과 최대선 사이에 위치하도록 오일을 보충하여야 한다.In other words, the stick of the oil gauge shows the maximum line (max) and the minimum line (min) .If the oil level is maintained between the minimum line and the maximum line during the inspection, it is normal.If the oil level is lowered to the minimum line, The oil must be refilled to be between the minimum and maximum lines.

또한, 트랜스미션 오일의 점검은 엔진시동을 걸고 약 1~2분간 공회전 한 다음 파킹 위치로 하고 상기와 같이 점검하는데, 도 1은 종래 오일게이지를 나타내는 도면이다.In addition, the inspection of the transmission oil is carried out by running the engine for about 1 to 2 minutes, and then into the parking position and checking as described above. FIG. 1 is a view showing a conventional oil gauge.

도시된 바와 같이, 종래 오일 게이지(11)는 오일량 측정을 위해 하부에 최대선(12)과 최소선(13)이 형성되고, 상기 오일 게이지(11)를 오일관(14)에 삽입하여 오일량의 적정 유무와 오일 색깔을 통한 오일의 변질 여부를 판별하게 되는 것이다.As shown in the drawing, the conventional oil gauge 11 has a maximum line 12 and a minimum line 13 formed at the bottom for measuring the amount of oil, and the oil gauge 11 is inserted into the oil pipe 14 so that the oil It is to determine whether the oil is deteriorated by the appropriate amount and the color of the oil.

While touching the inside of the bleeding, in this case there was a problem that can not accurately determine the remaining amount or condition of the oil.

또한, 일반적으로 점검한 오일의 색깔을 보고 오일 교환여부를 판단하기는 극히 어렵다.In addition, it is extremely difficult to judge the oil change by looking at the color of the oil that is generally checked.

이에 본 발명은 상기와 같은 문제점들을 해소하기 위해 안출된 것으로써, 본 발명은 오일게이지에 오일 색깔을 용이하게 판독할 수 있도록 색상을 입히며 굴곡진 형상을 구비하여 오일의 양을 용이하게 식별하게 하는 것을 목적으로 한다.Accordingly, the present invention has been made to solve the above problems, the present invention is to color the oil gauge so that the oil color can be easily read and has a curved shape to easily identify the amount of oil For the purpose of
