<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a portable fluid transfer pipe for easily removing fluid distant from a discharge port. <P>SOLUTION: A fluid transfer system includes a slender pipe. The pipe is connected at one end to a plurality of machine or engine reservoirs with connectors, and linked at the other end to a control valve 116 for selectively performing quick discharge. The discharge is performed by a pump 128 which is operably connected to the control valve. In another embodiment, the system includes a first pump for performing discharge from an engine oil reservoir, and a second pump for performing selective discharge from transmission oil and hydraulic oil reservoirs. The control valve and the pumps can be remote-controlled via a bracket or an electric switch on an operation panel. A method of removing and exchanging fluid from the plurality of reservoirs includes coupling the fluid transfer system to the reservoirs. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT</p> |
