Abstract

본 발명은 엔진오일 변질정도 검출장치에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to an engine oil deterioration detection device.

종래에는 엔진오일의 교환시기를 알기 위해 그 변질정도를 검출하게 되는데, 이를 위해 운전자가 직접 본네트의 뚜껑을 열고 오일 게이지를 사용해 오일팬내의 오일을 직접 찍어내어 육안으로 확인해야 하는 문제점이 있었다.Conventionally, the degree of deterioration is detected to know the replacement time of the engine oil. For this purpose, the driver directly opens the lid of the bonnet and uses the oil gauge to directly photograph the oil in the oil pan and visually confirm the problem.

따라서 본 발멸은 상기한 종래 기술의 문제점을 재선코자 하여 엔진오일의 탁도를 검출하기 위한 광센서를 오일팬의 내부 저면에 설치하여 엔진오일의 광투과 정도를 검출한 결과에 따라 엔진오일의 변질정도를 판단하고 이를 계기판의 오일탁도 표시수단을 통해 운전자에게 알려주므로서, 운전자가 쉽게 엔진오일 교환시기를 판단하도록 한 것이다.Therefore, this decay is to re-define the above-mentioned problems of the prior art by installing an optical sensor for detecting turbidity of the engine oil on the inner bottom of the oil pan to detect the degree of light transmission of the engine oil. Determining and telling the driver through the oil turbidity indicator means of the instrument panel, so that the driver can easily determine the engine oil replacement time.
