ABSTRACT:
A fluid collector for collecting fluid from a drain opening such as a motor vehicle crankcase or engine oil pan and a multipackage of the fluid collector and plurality of replacement-fluid containers. The fluid collector in a preferred embodiment comprises a sealed container carrying a folded bag therein. In a certain open condition of the container the bag is capable of receiving a substantial quantity of drain fluid and the container holds the open end of the bag as a funnel for receiving fluid from a drain opening. The container is resealable for transport and disposal of the bag and container with the drained fluid therein.
In a preferred embodiment, the container is of the same size as replacement-fluid containers which are to be used to replace the drained fluid. Thus, for example, that embodiment contemplates standard quart oil cans such as used to place oil in motor vehicle engines. In the multipackage, an odd number of oil cans are multipackaged with the fluid collector in a rectangular array as a unitary assembly. The invention further contemplates that the oil cans and fluid collector be multipackaged by a plastic sheet-formed strip having a plurality of container receiving apertures therein, such as is well-known for packaging beer and soft drinks in six-packs.
