Abstract

The wrench (2) has a hollow unit (1) permitting to channel liquid (5) e.g. oil, draining from a drain plug (3) of a reservoir (4) e.g. crankcase of a motor vehicle. The unit is bored interiorly and exteriorly, and surrounds a part of the wrench which is in contact with the drain plug. The unit is integrated with the wrench and is sealed at a junction (8) between the part and the wrench.

Description

La présente invention concerne une clef permettant de dévisser le bouchonThe present invention relates to a key for unscrewing the plug

d'un réservoir dans le but de le vidanger du liquide qu'il contient.  a tank in order to drain the liquid it contains.

Cette opération s'effectue habituellement avec une clef et consiste à dévisser le bouchon de plusieurs tours, jusqu'à l'enlever complètement et laisser s'écouler le liquide.  This operation is usually done with a key and consists of unscrewing the cap several turns, until completely remove and allow the liquid to flow.

Le problème étant qu'au simple déblocage du bouchon, le liquide commence à s'écouler le long de la clef que l'on tourne avec les mains qui se trouvent inondées du liquide, qui par ailleurs se répand sur une surface décrite par la clef en tournant.  The problem is that the simple release of the cap, the liquid begins to flow along the key that is rotated with the hands that are flooded with liquid, which also spreads on a surface described by the key while turning.

La clef selon l'invention permet de remédier à cet inconvénient: Elle comporte en effet, une pièce percée de part en part, qui entoure la clef dans sa partie en contact avec le bouchon de vidange; cette pièce étant solidaire de la clef et étanche à la jonction entre la pièce et la clef, le liquide de vidange s'écoulant au travers de cette pièce sans toucher les parties de la clef maintenues avec les mains et donc sans les souiller; le liquide étant canalisé , et facilement récupérable.  The key according to the invention overcomes this drawback: It comprises in fact a pierced part from one side, which surrounds the key in its part in contact with the drain plug; this piece being secured to the key and sealed at the junction between the piece and the key, the liquid drain flowing through the room without touching the parts of the key held with the hands and therefore without defiling them; the liquid being channeled, and easily recoverable.

Le dessin annexé illustre l'invention: La figure 1 représente la clef avec la pièce en coupe, 25 objet de l'invention.  The accompanying drawing illustrates the invention: FIG. 1 shows the key with the cross-section, object of the invention.

En référence à ce dessin, la clef (2) comporte la pièce (1) percée de part en part solidaire de la clef(2) et étanche à la jonction (8) entre la pièce et la clef; la clef (2) permettant de dévisser le bouchon (3) du réservoir(L) et au liquide (5) de s'écouler au travers de pièce (1) . Les embouts(6) et (7) de la clef n'étant pas représentés, ceux ci variant en fonction du type de bouchon à dévisser.  With reference to this drawing, the key (2) comprises the part (1) pierced integrally integral with the key (2) and sealed at the junction (8) between the piece and the key; the key (2) for unscrewing the cap (3) of the reservoir (L) and the liquid (5) to flow through the workpiece (1). The ends (6) and (7) of the key are not shown, those ci depending on the type of cap to be unscrewed.

La pièce (1) étant de forme quelconque aussi bien dans son aspect extérieur qu'intérieur; le perçage pouvant éventuellement se rétrécir pour mieux canaliser le liquide à vidanger; ta h^c.c (j) kt-nnb are.use., La clef (2) étant également de forme quelconque. La clef selon l'invention pourra etre utilisée pour vidanger l'huile des carters de moteurs automobiles par exemple.  The piece (1) being of any shape as well in its external appearance as inside; the piercing possibly being narrowed to better channel the liquid to be drained; The key (2) is also of any shape. The key according to the invention may be used for draining the oil from automobile engine casings, for example.
