Space saving telescoping pipe to transport fluid

1. A telescoping pipe comprising:

a first pipe and a second pipe, wherein the second pipe is constructed and arranged to stretch and retract along the first pipe so that a length of the telescoping pipe can be extended or shortened;

a first O-ring coupled between the first pipe and the second pipe;

a second O-ring coupled to an inner surface of the second pipe;

wherein the second pipe includes a first radial cutout at a first end of the second pipe and a second radial cutout at a second end of the second pipe, wherein the first radial cutout is constructed and arranged to accommodate the first O-ring and the second radial cutout is constructed and arranged to accommodate the second O-ring, wherein the second O-ring is constructed and arranged to seal the second pipe with a mating component;

wherein the first pipe has a greater length than the second pipe; and

wherein the telescoping pipe includes a first end and a second end, and wherein the second end of the telescoping pipe includes one or more locking features.

2. The telescoping pipe of claim 1 wherein the first O-ring is constructed and arranged to seal the first pipe with the second pipe.

3. The telescoping pipe of claim 1 wherein the telescoping pipe is constructed and arranged to transport a fluid.

4. The telescoping pipe of claim 1 wherein the one or more locking features are constructed and arranged to lock the telescoping pipe to a mating component.

5. The telescoping pipe of claim 1 further comprising an engine block and an oil cooler, wherein the telescoping pipe transports fluid from the engine block to the oil cooler.

6. The telescoping pipe of claim 5 wherein the second end of the telescoping pipe is locked onto the oil cooler.

7. The telescoping pipe of claim 1 wherein the telescoping pipe comprises aluminum.

8. A telescoping pipe comprising:

a first pipe and a second pipe, wherein the second pipe is constructed and arranged to stretch and retract along the first pipe so that a length of the telescoping pipe can be extended or shortened;

a first O-ring coupled between the first pipe and the second pipe;

a second O-ring coupled to an inner surface of the second pipe;

wherein the first pipe comprises a first end, a body, a second end, an inner surface, and an outer surface, wherein the first end comprises a first cylindrical surface, a second cylindrical surface, a tapered surface, and a lip extending between the tapered surface and the second cylindrical surface;

wherein the second pipe includes a first radial cutout at a first end of the second pipe and a second radial cutout at a second end of the second pipe, wherein the first radial cutout is constructed and arranged to accommodate the first O-ring and the second radial cutout is constructed and arranged to accommodate the second O-ring;

wherein the first pipe has a greater length than the second pipe; and

wherein the telescoping pipe includes a first end and a second end, and wherein the second end of the telescoping pipe includes one or more locking features.

9. The telescoping pipe of claim 8 wherein the first end includes an inward taper.

10. The telescoping pipe of claim 8 wherein the second end includes an inward taper.

11. The telescoping pipe of claim 8 wherein the second pipe includes an inner surface and an outer surface;

wherein the inner surface of the second pipe includes a first inner cylindrical surface and a second inner cylindrical surface; and

wherein the first radial cutout and the second radial cutout are in the first inner cylindrical surface.

12. The telescoping pipe of claim 11 wherein the second end of the second pipe includes a tapered surface which extends toward the second inner cylindrical surface.

13. The telescoping pipe of claim 11 wherein the outer surface comprises a first outer cylindrical surface, a second outer cylindrical surface, and a third outer cylindrical surface, wherein a first lip extends approximately perpendicular to a central axis of the second pipe between the first outer cylindrical surface and the second outer cylindrical surface and a second lip extends approximately perpendicular to a central axis of the second pipe between the second outer cylindrical surface and the third outer cylindrical surface.

14. The telescoping pipe of claim 13 wherein the diameter of the third outer cylindrical surface is larger than the first and second cylindrical surfaces and the first outer cylindrical surface is greater than the second outer cylindrical surface.
