Abstract

An apparatus for use in a service station to recover automotive fluids. The apparatus comprises a reservoir attachable to a floor surface and a catch pan for receiving automotive fluids flowing from under a vehicle being serviced. The apparatus also comprises a hollow extensible arm means between the catch pan and the reservoir forming a conduit therebetween, and an articulated joint between the extensible arm means and the reservoir. This articulated joint is flexible in a vertical plane as well as in a horizontal plane. Thus the catch pan and the extensible arm means are movable between a first horizontal fluid recovery position and a second vertical compactly stowed position above the reservoir. The reservoir of the apparatus also has a first drain valve and a second drain valve located above the first drain valve. When the apparatus is used to recover several types of automotive fluids, those aqueous fluids such as radiator coolant may be firstly emptied from the reservoir through the first drain valve. Then the petroleum based fluids can be emptied through the second drain valve even if a nominal volume of aqueous fluid remains in a lower portion of the reservoir below the second drain valve.
