ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for withdrawing a liquid such as oil from a container such as the crankcase of an engine comprising a rigid, fluid-tight receptacle having a circular top wall and an upstanding rim at the periphery thereof, a vacuum line extending from the receptacle for connection to a source of vacuum and having a check valve for preventing backflow of gas, an elongated flexible probe for insertion into the container to take up the liquid, and a conduit divided into two portions and extending from the receptacle to the probe. The first conduit portion extends from the receptacle to a control valve, and the second conduit portion has one end connected to the probe and the other end adapted for selective attachment to and detachment from the control valve. The second conduit portion has an inside diameter large enough to receive the flexible probe and has a length substantially equal to the inner circumference of the receptacle rim so that the probe can be fully inserted into said other end of the second conduit portion and then the second conduit portion can be lodged in circular configuration inside the against the receptacle rim for purposes of storage and transport while maintaining the probe in a protected position.
