Claim:
An improvement on an oil change equipment, comprising an oil barrel; the oil barrel having a first oil inlet and a gate thereon; the oil barrel having a control valve securely joined to the gate; a first oil conduit securely joined to the first oil inlet of the oil barrel at one end; a supporting rod secured on top of the oil barrel; the supporting rod having a hollow seat at an upper end thereof; an oil-collecting pan for receiving drained oil; a pipe joined to a bottom of the oil collecting pan at one end; the pipe communicating with a containing space in the oil collecting pan; the pipe having a connecting pivot secured on a bottom side thereof; the pipe being connected to the oil inlet of the oil barrel at other end thereof for use as an oil passage between the oil collecting pan and the oil barrel; and a vacuum oil-pumping device connected to the control valve of the oil barrel; whereby the oil collecting pan can be supported on the upper end of the supporting rod secured on top of the oil barrel with the connecting pivot being inserted in the hollow seat, thus allowing drained oil received with the oil collecting pan to flow into the oil barrel directly, and whereby the oil collecting pan can be positioned apart from the supporting rod.
