Oil collection assembly
A funnel and drain hose are interengaged in a specific orientation. The drain hose is positioned on the funnel with the opposed ends of the drain hose vertically positioned when the funnel is properly hung on a wall. The opposed ends of the drain hose face upwardly so that any residual oil trapped in the drain hose collects at the bottom of a U-shaped portion of the drain hose positioned on the funnel.
1. An oil collection assembly comprising
a funnel,
a drainage hose, said drainage hose being connectable to the funnel,
retention clips for mounting the drainage hose on the funnel along a periphery of said funnel, with opposite ends of the drainage hose being laterally spaced apart and vertically oriented, and
a hanging opening of the funnel for mounting the funnel on a vertical wall.
2. The oil collection assembly of claim 1 , wherein the hanging opening is located at one end of the funnel.
3. The oil collection assembly of claim 2 , wherein the hanging opening is located at a top end of the funnel.
4. The oil collection assembly of claim 1 , wherein at least some of the retention clips are located on at least two sides of the funnel.
5. The oil collection assembly of claim 4 , wherein one of the retention clips is located at a lower end of the funnel.
6. The oil collection assembly of claim 4 , wherein the opposite ends of the drainage hose lie along opposite sides of the funnel.
7. The oil collection assembly of claim 6 , wherein a curvature of a central portion of the drainage hose follows a curvature of a lower end of the funnel.
8. The oil collection assembly of claim 4 , wherein the retention clips are located on three sides of the funnel.
9. The oil collection assembly of claim 8 , wherein the hanging opening is located on a fourth side of the funnel.
10. The oil collection assembly of claim 1 , wherein said funnel includes a threaded outlet and one of the opposite ends of the drainage hose is threaded for engaging the threaded outlet of the funnel.
11. The oil collection assembly of claim 1 , wherein the drainage hose is held in a U-shape on the funnel.
12. The oil collection assembly of claim 11 , wherein the opposite ends of the drainage hose open upwardly when the funnel is hung on a vertical wall by the hanging opening.
13. The oil collection assembly of claim 1 , wherein a curvature of the retention clips is complementary to a curvature of said drainage hose.
14. The oil collection assembly of claim 1 , wherein a side of the funnel opposite to a side of said funnel having the retention clips is flat.
15. An oil collection assembly comprising
a funnel,
a drainage hose, said drainage hose being connectable to the funnel,
retention clips for mounting the drainage hose on the funnel with opposite ends of the drainage hose being vertically oriented,
a hanging opening of the funnel for mounting the funnel on a vertical wall,
at least some of the retention clips being located on at least two sides of the funnel,
the opposite ends of the drainage hose lying along opposite sides of the funnel, and
a curvature of a central portion of the drainage hose following a curvature of a lower end of the funnel.
16. The oil collection assembly of claim 15 , wherein the drainage hose is held in a U-shape on the funnel.
17. The oil collection assembly of claim 16 , wherein the opposite ends of the drainage hose open upwardly when the funnel is hung on a vertical wall by the hanging opening.
18. The oil collection assembly of claim 15 , wherein a side of the funnel opposite to a side of said funnel having the retention clips is flat.
