Abstract:
The present invention teaches a method and apparatus to quickly and inexpensively implement advanced, bypass grade, fine, or additional filtration to engines and hydraulic systems. The present invention has the ability to make quick hydraulic connection to the engine or hydraulic system, where oil is super cleaned, without major modifications as is the paradigm by traditional bypass filtration systems and without removing any lubricant from the engine or system that the present invention is connected to, as is the paradigm of traditional bypass filtering systems. When connected to the normally provided stud for the spin-on oil filter in an engine or hydraulic system, the net effect of interest to the present invention is that by simply placing the adapter at the point of connection of the spin-on oil filter, many of the necessary plumbing associated with the traditional bypass filter installation is obviated, as is the energy and labor intensive process of seeking for a pressure point and a return of the oil. The present invention relies on the differential pressure effected by either alone or in combination of an orifice restriction to effect flow of either engine oil or hydraulic fluid, to route through a high efficiency filter, in trapping and low pressure to flow, an amount of dirty oil and then to return same amount to reconstitute a total flow on the system, whereby supplemental or advanced filtration is quickly connected to an engine or hydraulic system.

Claim (Index 5):
The adapter assembly of  claim 1 , wherein the flow area of said peripheral passages is variable.
