An oil measurement apparatus for an oil-lubricated internal combustion engine has an oil dipstick and a guide for guiding the oil dipstick in an oil pan of the internal combustion engine. A fill level of motor oil in the oil pan can be recorded by the oil measurement apparatus. The oil dipstick has an operating element in a first end region for inserting and removing the oil dipstick in the guide and, in a second end region, has a measurement region for recording the fill level. The fill level can be recorded by the oil dipstick in a first state of the oil measurement apparatus and, in a second state of the oil measurement apparatus, the measurement region is completely drawn into the guide. The oil dipstick has a dipstick stop element between the operating element and the measurement region, and has a dipstick cover, which is movable between the measurement region and the dipstick stop element and is designed to at least temporarily cover the measurement region. In the second state of the oil measurement apparatus, the measurement region is covered by the dipstick cover at least in sections.

Disclosed herein is a device that includes a platform and a wiper attached to the platform. The wiper includes an aperture disposed within the platform and a channel. The channel in the platform runs from an outside edge of the platform to an outside edge of the aperture. The wiper also includes an aperture disposed within the wiper and a channel that runs from the outside edge of the wiper to the outside edge of the wiper aperture. The aperture in the wiper is smaller than the aperture in the platform. Also disclose is a device that includes a platform, a wiper attached to the platform, and a brush with bristles attached to the platform.

A no emission tank gauge has a housing having a valve connection extending from a bottom side of the housing, a gauge line within the housing, the gauge line having a plumb bob attached at a free end, a pulley attached within the housing and supporting the gauge line, the pulley configured to allow extension and retraction of the gauge line, and an actuator connected to the pulley and extending exterior to the housing and configured to actuate the extension and retraction of the gauge line via rotation of the pulley. The housing has a window in a wall of the housing facing a marked side of the gauge line. The valve connection has an opening sized to allow for passage of the plumb bob and the gauge line. The housing is sealed when the valve connection is connected to a valve to prevent escape of fluid.

A dipstick assembly includes a tube, a dipstick, and a wiper. The dipstick assembly is alternatively configurable in a wiping configuration, in which the dipstick is mounted to the tube with the wiper therebetween, and in a standard configuration, in which the dipstick is mounted to the tube without the wiper therebetween. In the wiping configuration and in the standard configuration, the dipstick closes the tube, and reaches through the tube. In the wiping configuration, the dipstick reaches through the tube past the wiper, and the dipstick is alternatively withdrawable from the tube past the wiper, whereupon the wiper wipes the dipstick, and with the wiper, whereupon the wiper leaves the dipstick unwiped.

An apparatus for removing wetness from a gauge stick comprising a housing capable of receiving a gauge stick, a wiper receiver that forms a wiper receiver cavity therein and that engages with the housing, and a wiper that fits into the wiper receiver cavity formed by the wiper receiver and that forms a wiper aperture for slidably engaging a gauge stick.

A dipstick assembly includes a first handle attached to an end of the rod, a second handle including a second handle opening configured to receive the first handle and the rod, and a cleaning pad disposed at the bottom end of the second handle. The cleaning pad is configured to receive the rod and contact the rod to clean the rod when the first handle and rod are moved vertically relative to the second handle and the cleaning pad.
