ABSTRACT:
An adapter 10 for connecting a bypass oil filter to an internal combustion engine 14 having a full flow lubricating system is mounted between the oil filter mounting block 12 and the conventional full flow filter 16. The adapter includes means 48, 52 for diverting a portion of the circulating oil flow to the bypass filter and means 46, 74, 76 for returning that portion to the engine. The adapter includes a body portion 36 and an insert 60 which together define the passages necessary for diverting a portion of the oil flow to the bypass filter. The body includes a central axial 38 opening which receives the insert, the body and insert together defining an annular chamber 76 which receives clean oil from the bypass filter through a radial passage 46 in the body. An axial passage 68 in the insert allows clean oil to flow from the full flow filter to the engine and a plurality of radial passages 74 allow clean oil from the bypass filter to enter the axial passage 68 regardless of the relative orientations of the insert and the body. Additional passages are formed in the body to provide the remaining flow paths necessary for the bypass flow.
