Adjustable oil cap
Abstract
Until now, the only way to add oil to a vehicles engines oil filler port and be confidant you would not spill the oil was to use a funnel or spout. These devices can be messy and are not always available. If you keep them in your vehicle they can stain the inside of the vehicle or become lost. My invention stays on the engine at all times and allows a person to add oil to the engine without the use of funnels or spouts and greatly reduces the chance of spilling the oil on the engine or ground. With the device always attached to the engine a person never has to look for a funnel or spout to add oil. The oil can be added and there is no extra devices that have to be stored or kept track of.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . What I claim as my invention is a collapsable plastic device that attaches to an engines oil filler port and does not have to be taken on and off to add oil to the engine without spilling the oil. It can be pulled up to be reachable with the oil can and then pushed back down so it will not interfere with the vehicles hood or other parts of the engine. It can be tilted back and forth in its raised position for a better location. In its raised position it will help eliminate oil spillage because the top of the invention and the oil can will be at the same heigth. A person can then rest the oil can on the top of the device and pour the oil.
