The present invention relates to an apparatus to measure the residual quantity of a washer liquid in a washer tank for an automobile. By the conventional technology, when a user wants to measure the residual quantity of a washer liquid in an engine compartment, the user has to check by opening a hood which covers the engine compartment. Thus, it is burdensome, difficult, and inconvenient to frequently check the residual quantity, and users are often in trouble because of insufficient washer liquid since they miss opportunities to supplement the washer liquid. Therefore, the present invention provides an apparatus to measure the residual quantity of a washer liquid in a washer tank for an automobile, comprising: an outlet port (111) which is placed on a top side of a back side of a housing (110) to connect an outlet hose (320) which is connected to a nozzle; an inlet port (112) which is placed on a bottom side of a back side of the housing (110) to connect an inlet hose (310) which is connected to a washer liquid outlet of the washer tank (200); and a water level identification window (113) which is placed on the front surface of the housing (110) to form a washer liquid level gauge (100) which is installed on the frame of a door frame with a door hinge (410) on the door of the drivers seat to be seen when the door of the drivers seat (400) is opened. The present invention can allow a user to frequently check the residual quantity of a washer liquid every time the user opens the door of the drivers seat even without opening the hood, can improve user convenience, can allow the user to install a small-capacity washer tank (200) thanks to the convenience of making frequent checks, can secure a space for installing a washer tank in a narrow engine compartment, can help reduce the weight of the automobile when the capacity of the washer tank (200) is reduced, and can help improve fuel efficiency.

    본 발명은 자동차 워셔탱크의 워셔액 잔유량 측정장치에 관한 것으로서 종래에는 엔진룸 내에 설치된 워셔액의 잔유량을 확인하기 위해서는 엔진룸을 덮고있는 후드를 열어준 상태에서 확인하여야 하므로 번거로워 수시 점검이 어렵고 불편하기 때문에 워셔액 보충시기를 놓쳐 워셔액을 사용하고자 할 경우 워셔액 부족으로 낭패를 당하는 일이 종종 있었다.따라서 본 발명은 자동차 워셔탱크의 워셔액 잔유량 측정장치를 구성함에 있어서, 하우징(110)의 이면 상측에는 노즐과 연결된 아웃렛호스(320) 연결용 아웃렛포트(111)를 구비하고, 하우징(110)의 이면 하측에는 워셔탱크(200)의 워셔액배출구와 연결된 인렛호스(310) 연결용 인렛포트(112)를 구비하며, 하우징(110) 전면에는 수위식별창(113)을 구비하여 워셔액 레벨게이지(100)를 형성하고, 상기 워셔액 레벨게이지(100)를 운전석 도어(400)를 열면 보이도록 운전석 도어(400)의 도어힌지(410)가 있는 도어틀의 차체에 설치한 것으로서, 이러한 본 발명은 후드를 열지 않고서도 운전석 도어를 열 때마다 워셔액의 잔류량을 수시로 확인할 수 있으므로 사용자의 편의성이 향상되며, 또한 편리한 수시 점검으로 용량이 적은 워셔탱크(200)를 설치하여도 무방하므로 협소한 엔진룸 내에서 워셔탱크 설치를 위한 공간 확보하기가 수월하고, 워셔탱크(200)의 용량이 적으면 차량의 중량을 감소시키는데에도 일조를 할 수 있어 연비향상에 도움을 줄 수 있는 매우 유용한 발명이다.
