Watercraft Oil-Siphoning Device

Abstract

A watercraft oil-siphoning device is provided. The device is comprised of a collection attachment that mimics the form and function of an oil filter. The attachment interfaces with the oil filter mounting area using a threaded fastener for a secure connection. A second end of the attachment includes a fastener that accommodates various tubing connectors. Tubing attaches to this fastener through compatible connectors, allowing flexibility in connector types and incorporating a one-way valve to prevent backflow during oil removal. The tubing's other end connects to a cap using a fastener, with the cap sealingly engaging with a container to collect the siphoned oil. The container, made of materials like HDPE or stainless steel, includes a handle for easy handling. The method of use involves sequentially connecting the device components and activating the watercraft to siphon oil through the system for clean and efficient collection.

         7 . The watercraft oil-siphoning device of  claim 5 , wherein the one-way valve is comprised of a check valve or a ball valve. 
     
     
         8 . The watercraft oil-siphoning device of  claim 1 , wherein the cap is comprised of a fourth fastener comprised of a male thread or a female thread. 
     
     
         9 . The watercraft oil-siphoning device of  claim 1 , wherein the container is transparent or translucent. 
     
     
         10 . The watercraft oil-siphoning device of  claim 1 , wherein the container is comprised of a handle. 
     
     
         11 . A watercraft oil-siphoning device comprising:
 a collection attachment comprised of a first end with a first fastener configured to attach to an oil filter mounting area of a watercraft and a second end comprised of a second fastener;   a tubing having a first end and a second end, the first end of the tubing being attached to the second fastener of the second end of the collection attachment via a third fastener;   a one-way valve;   a cap comprised of a secondary fastener configured to engage with a fourth fastener of the second end of the tubing; and   a container having a threaded spout, the cap being configured to attach to the threaded spout of the container.   
     
     
         12 . The watercraft oil-siphoning device of  claim 11 , wherein the one-way valve is positioned on the tubing. 
     
     
         13 . The watercraft oil-siphoning device of  claim 11 , wherein the second fastener is comprised of a quick connect fastener. 
     
     
         14 . The watercraft oil-siphoning device of  claim 11 , wherein the third fastener is comprised of a quick connect fastener. 
     
     
         15 . The watercraft oil-siphoning device of  claim 11 , wherein the fourth fastener is comprised of a quick connect fastener. 
     
     
         16 . The watercraft oil-siphoning device of  claim 11 , wherein the container is comprised of an HDPE material. 
     
     
         17 . A method of using a watercraft oil-siphoning device, the method comprising the following steps:
