Abstract
A system is provided for removing oil from an oil filter of a motor vehicle. The system includes a housing with a top rim, an upper portion, a lower portion, and a bottom rim. The top rim of the housing includes a first diameter. The housing includes the bottom rim with a second diameter that is less than the first diameter. The system also includes an upper cap with a flange including a first side and an opposing second side. The flange is disposed at a top portion of the upper cap. The first side of the flange is coupled to the top rim of the housing. A bottom portion of the upper cap extends into the housing. The upper cap includes a central aperture for draining the oil from the oil filter into the housing.
Claims17
A system for removing oil from an oil filter of a motor vehicle, the system comprising:
- a housing defining a top rim, an upper portion, a lower portion, and a bottom rim, the top rim having a first diameter, the bottom rim having a second diameter that is less than the first diameter;
- an upper cap including a flange with a first side and an opposing second side, the flange being disposed at a top portion of the upper cap, the first side of the flange being coupled to the top rim of the housing, the second side of the flange being couplable to the oil filter, a bottom portion of the upper cap extending into the housing, the upper cap including a central aperture for draining the oil from the oil filter into the housing;
- a lower cap coupled to the bottom rim of the housing;
- and
- a puncture device removably coupled to the lower cap, at least a portion of the puncture device extending through the lower cap into a void of the upper cap.
