Abstract
A hydraulic tank for a machine is disclosed herein. The hydraulic tank includes a casing defining an interior space and having an outer surface, an inner surface opposite the inner surface, and a return hydraulic fluid inlet extending through the casing. A first concave member is connected to the inner surface of the casing to form a passage. The passage is positioned and shaped to transport hydraulic fluid from the return hydraulic fluid inlet to another location within the hydraulic tank.
