Vehicular engine appliance and method for watching thereover

Abstract

A vehicular engine appliance ( 10 ), comprising: a viscometer ( 18 ), installed in the vehicular engine, for measuring viscosity of the vehicular engine oil ( 14 ); a connection between the viscometer ( 18 ) with oil of the oil, system of the vehicle, for enabling the viscometer to measure viscosity of the vehicular engine oil. ( 14 ); thereby metering vehicular oil ( 14 ) of said vehicle at work thereof, resulting in allowing preventing from the vehicular engine operation with non-suitable engine oil ( 14 ).

1 . A vehicular engine appliance ( 10 ), comprising:
 a viscometer ( 18 ), installed in. said vehicular engine, for measuring viscosity of said vehicular engine oil ( 14 );   a connection between said viscometer ( 18 ) with oil of the oil system of said vehicle, for enabling said measurement;   
       thereby metering a vehicular oil ( 14 ) of said vehicle at work thereof, 
       resulting in allowing preventing from said vehicular engine operation with non-suitable engine oil ( 14 ). 
     
     
         2 . A vehicular engine appliance ( 10 ) according to  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a thermometer ( 20 ) installed in said vehicular engine, for measuring the temperature of said oil ( 14 ),   
       thereby providing said viscosity of said oil ( 14 ) as a function of said temperature thereof. 
     
     
         3 . A vehicular engine appliance ( 10 ) according to  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a pump ( 22 ), for pumping said oil ( 14 ) from an oil reservoir ( 30 ) of said vehicular engine into said viscometer ( 18 ), and for returning said oil ( 14 ).   
     
     
         4 . A vehicular engine appliance ( 10 ) according to  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a processor ( 24 ), for comparing measurements of said oil ( 14 ) to expected data thereof, and for identifying oil quality.   
     
     
         5 . A method. for watching over a vehicular engine, said method comprising the steps of
 turning on said engine; and   measuring the viscosity of oil ( 14 ) contained in said vehicular engine,   
       thereby metering a vehicular oil ( 14 ) of said vehicle at work thereof, 
       resulting in allowing preventing from said vehicular engine operation with non-suitable engine oil ( 14 ). 
     
     
         6 . A method according to  claim 5 , further comprising the step of:
 turning off said engine, for cooling thereof, and   measuring the viscosity of said oil ( 14 ),   
       thereby testing said oil ( 14 ) near classified standard temperatures thereof. 
     
     
         7 . A method according to  claim 5 , further comprising the step of:
 indicating quality of said oil ( 14 ).   
     
     
         8 . A method according to  claim 1 , further comprising the step of:
 identifying quality of said oil ( 14 ).
