The present application relates to apparatus for mounting on a rotatable portion of a diesel filter for controlling a drainage valve. The apparatus comprises an outlet for draining liquid from the diesel filter, mounting apparatus for fixedly mounting the apparatus on the rotatable portion, and a manipulation portion for manipulation by a user's hand which projects, at least in part, radially outward from said rotatable portion, in use. The application also relates to a finger grip wheel for a diesel filter. The finger grip wheel has a drainage outlet and at least one finger detent for accommodating a tip of a user's finger to facilitate rotation of the finger grip wheel.

This invention relates to an oil filter extractor assembly for enabling the change of an oil filter. The oil filter extractor assembly for enabling the change of oil filter comprising: a first end having a handle means for threading the oil filter extractor assembly to the oil filter; a round plate; a second end having an external threads; and wherein the round plate presses against the seal of the oil filter to avoid spilling of the oil. The present invention provides an oil filter extractor assembly for changing the oil filter, which is easy to use & simple, safe, saving the time, manually operable, and avoiding any spillage of the oils on the vehicle or onto the ground.

Oil filter pliers contains: a fixed part, a movable part, a hollow grip handle, and a press handle. The grip handle is connected with the fixed part which includes a first clamping arm and a hollow connection section, and the moveable part includes an slidable extension and a second clamping arm corresponding to the first clamping arm, wherein the second clamping arm moves close to or away from the first clamping arm by sliding the slidable extension relative to the grip handle. The movable part further includes a first toothed section, the press handle is rotatably coupled with the hollow connection section and includes a driving block and a second toothed section partially engaging with the first toothed section, and between the press handle and the grip handle is defined a torsion spring abutting against the press handle and the grip handle.

A transmission assembly may include a transmission housing; and a receiving space for receiving an electrical functional unit. The receiving space may be formed by at least one wall in the transmission housing and a lid unit, the receiving space may be sealable from an exterior environment via a seal in a contact region on the transmission housing and the lid unit. The lid unit may be connectable to the transmission housing by a screw, where the lid unit includes a channel through which at least part of the screw passes, and where the channel has an inner thread section.

An oil filter socket having a torque limited maximum is provided. Namely, a torque limiting mechanism is provided interior a bore defined by a nut adapted to receive a conventional ratchet. The torque limiting mechanism includes a cam having bearing race notches formed circumferentially there-around. A plurality of ball bearings rest inside the notches until the rotational torque force applied to the socket from the ratchet overcomes the spring force acting opposite the cam.

A socket for gripping a reservoir cap and rotating the reservoir cap for easy removal. The socket can grip a variety of differently shaped reservoir caps, for example, reservoir caps associated with reservoirs of different automobiles. The socket can be made of nylon and can be glass-reinforced so as to be lightweight and chemically resistant.

A fluid draining system, for serving as an aid in emptying waste oil or other fluid from a fluid container to a fluid collection container, includes a main body, which may be made of injection molded plastic and may be at least partially transparent. The main body may have an opening for entrance of fluid from the fluid container, and a lower downward sloping chute for the exiting of the fluid towards the fluid collection container. A sleeve with one or more elastic seals may be provided at the main body to fluid-tightly yet operatively accommodate a socket extension or other tool for operating a drain plug of the fluid container. The fluid draining system may provide a unique hands free, confined fluid flow channel through which fluid will flow while draining from the fluid container, such as from an engine oil pan, crankcase, or transmission sump.

An engine oil filter gripping tool is disclosed. The device is comprised of a cylindrical cap body and an interchangeable drive hub having a ratchet aperture. An object of the invention is to provide a device that will allow a user to remove conventional spin-on and cartridge oil filters using multiple-sized ratchet drivers. The interchangeable drive hub comes in various aperture ratchet sizes such as -inch and -inch drive. The user installs the interchangeable drive hub depending on the size ratchet they wish to use.

The present invention relates in general to the field of tools and in particular to an adjustable wrench apparatus particularly useful for turning items of nonstandard size such as oil filters, treaded pipes or other threaded and unthreaded items. The device comprises a core configured to receive a strap where such strap wraps around an item to be turned where the core is further configured to be activated by a typical tool such as a ratchet.

An oil filter wrench which has two main parts mounted together so as to be movable towards and away from each other. Each part has an acruate surface aligned with each other. A threaded drive rod has one end in a threaded hole in a side portion of one main part and passes through a clearance hole in a portion of the other main part, with a head engaging the other main part so as to move the parts toward or away from each other to grip or release to the filter. A wrenching feature on the head and of another wrenching feature the bottom of one of the main parts allow a conventional wrenching tool to drive the wrench to rotate the oil filter and to drive the drive element to move the main parts together to grip the filter oil apart to release the same. An extension rod is able to be engaged a wrenching feature on the bottom of said oil filter wrench to loosen or tighten the oil filter on its mounting.
