Abstract
Description
The present invention relates to an oil drain plug. More specifically, the present invention relates to an oil drain plug capable of discharging oil remaining in an oil pan without being separated from an oil pan or the like.
The oil drain plug is a plug that plugs in the under cover of the transmission, engine, compressor, etc., or the exhaust hole (drain hole) at the bottom of the oil pan. Disconnect the plug when oil is changed or repaired to drain the oil.
For example, the oil pan serves as a reservoir for storing the lubricant used in engines, compressors, etc., and the oil stored in such an oil pan has to be replaced periodically since its lifetime is not permanent. At this time, a general method of oil change is to remove the oil drain plug located at the lowermost part of the engine from the exhaust hole, to discharge all the existing oil, and then to inject new oil from the top.
That is, conventionally, the oil drain plug installed in the discharge hole on the bottom surface of the oil storage unit such as the oil pan is separated / removed and the oil is discharged from the discharge hole of the oil pan or the like to change the oil.
However, in the conventional case, since oil is poured and discharged from the oil drain plug at the moment of separating / removing the oil drain plug from the oil pan or the like, oil is added to the operator's hand.
An object of the present invention is to provide an oil drain plug capable of discharging oil remaining in an oil storage unit such as an oil pan without separating from an oil storage unit such as an oil pan.
In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, according to one aspect of the present invention, there is provided a guide bolt having a through hole having a thread formed in a lower inner circumferential surface thereof, the outer circumferential surface being bolted to an exhaust hole of the oil storage unit; And an oil discharge hole having an inner circumferential stepped portion penetrated therethrough. The oil discharge hole is bolted to the lower inner peripheral surface of the through hole at the lower side of the outer peripheral surface of the upper portion of the head of the bolt, is inserted into the oil storage unit through the through hole, A drain bolt slidably moved up and down along the through hole; An opening / closing shaft which is inserted into the oil discharge hole and opens the oil discharge hole when the drain bolt slides downward while blocking the oil discharge hole when the drain bolt is bolted according to the inner peripheral surface step of the oil discharge hole; And a shaft support which is engaged at one end with the upper side of the guide bolt and at the other end with the upper end of the opening and closing shaft and supports the opening and closing shaft.
In this case, in one example, the drain bolt may further include a stop member formed at the upper end of the outer circumferential surface and limiting the range of sliding downward movement.
The stop member is a snap ring inserted into the third ring groove formed around the upper end portion of the outer circumferential surface of the drain bolt. The snap ring is moved to the inner step by the step of the upper end or the inner circumferential surface of the through hole at the time of the maximum downward movement within the sliding downward movement. It takes.
Further, in one example, the drain bolt may further include a hose connector projecting downward from the head of the bolt.
In another example, the top height of the guide bolt is formed to coincide with the bottom surface of the oil storage unit when the maximum bolt is engaged with the fastening hole or is formed lower than the bottom surface, and the top height of the drain bolt, And is formed to coincide with or be lower than the top height.
At this time, in one example, the shaft support includes a cylindrical ring-shaped coupling portion that is screwed with an upper inner circumferential surface of the through-hole of the guide bolt or an upper outer circumferential surface of the guide bolt, a fixing groove fitting portion that fits into a fixing groove formed around the upper end portion of the opening- And a plurality of connection supports connecting the cylindrical ring-shaped coupling portion and the fixing groove-fitted portion.
Further, in one example, a first ring groove is formed in the inner circumferential surface of the through hole, the outer circumferential surface of the drain bolt moving up and down along the through hole by the first O-ring sandwiched in the first ring groove is sealed between the inner circumferential surface of the through hole, And a second ring groove formed around a lower end portion of a diameter larger than the middle diameter of the through hole, wherein a second O-ring inserted in the second ring groove during vertical movement of the drain bolt in the bolt fastening section with the lower inner circumferential surface of the through hole, The lower end portion of the opening and closing shaft is brought into contact with the lower end portion of the opening / closing shaft by the large-diameter portion of the inner circumferential surface of the oil discharge hole due to the downward sliding movement of the drain bolt after the drain bolt is moved downward And the sealing by the second O-ring is released.
At this time, in another example, a first gasket is provided between the bolt head projected horizontally from the lower part of the outer circumference of the guide bolt and the periphery of the bottom fastening hole, and the upper surface of the bolt head of the drain bolt and the lower surface of the bolt head of the guide bolt A second gasket is provided.
According to one embodiment of the present invention, the oil remaining in the oil storage unit such as the oil pan can be discharged without separating from an oil storage unit such as an oil pan.
Thus, the oil drain plug is not entirely separated / detached during the oil draining operation, the drain bolt is released from the guide bolt by releasing the bolt from the guide bolt, and the drain bolt is pulled by sliding to discharge the oil through the oil drain hole. It is possible to prevent or reduce the oil from being put on the hand during discharge.
