Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] Industrial Application Field The present invention relates to a refueling device that allows a refueling hose to be moved according to the refueling operation position of a refueling nozzle.

Conventional technology In the conventional oil supply device, for example,
As shown in No. 187595 and Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 59-187596, the hose outlet of the refueling hose connected to the liquid feeding means is located on the front side of the refueling device main body, which has refueling amount indicators on both sides of the refueling device main body. There was one that was configured to move back and forth between the front and rear surfaces. Further, as shown in Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 58-194199, there was a system in which the hose outlet was configured to move in the left and right directions along the front and rear surfaces of the main body of the refueling device, which had a refueling amount indicator.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, the conventional refueling apparatus described above has the following drawbacks when refueling multiple vehicles arriving at a refueling station at the same time, for example. In this case, as shown in FIG. 6, the first vehicle 1 is stopped at a position facing the front surface 3a of the fuel supply device main body 3 installed on the island 2, and one fuel supply hose 4 is pulled toward the front surface 3a. Then, the vehicle 1 is refueled from the refueling port 1a. Next, the second vehicle 5 is stopped at a position facing the rear surface 3b of the refueling device main body 3, and the other refueling hose 6 is connected to the rear surface 3b.
The vehicle 5 is moved to the b side and refueled from the refueling port 5a of the automobile 5. Therefore, in the conventional refueling device, when refueling two cars 1 and 5 at the same time, the second car is refueled on the rear surface 3b side of the refueling device main body 3, and the refueling port 5a is connected to the refueling device. It is located at a distance from the main body 3. For this reason, in the refueling device, the refueling hose 6 must be installed above the vehicle 5 while refueling, making it difficult to refuel, and also having the disadvantage that if the refueling hose 6 comes into contact with the vehicle 5, it may damage the vehicle body. It was hot.

In addition, in order to eliminate the above drawbacks, in the case of , the refueling hoses 4 and 6 on both sides are both moved to the front 3a side of the refueling device main body 3, and the two cars 1 and 5 are stopped in tandem on the front 3a side. It is also possible to refuel with
Since the refueling hoses 4 and 6 only extend from both sides of the fuel supply nozzle, the refueling nozzle cannot reach the refueling port of either vehicle, making it difficult to refuel two vehicles at the same time from one side of the refueling device body 3. It was.

Further, as shown in FIG. 7, when refueling a relatively long automobile 7, if the automobile 7 is stopped at a position where the refueling port 7a is near the refueling hose 6, the driver's seat position is shifted to the refueling device. The disadvantage was that the refueling amount indicator was difficult to see because it was located past the main body 3.

Next, in the case of the refueling device shown in FIG.
a, to move along the rear surface 8b, the first vehicle 1 is stopped on the front surface 8a side of the refueling device main body 8, and the second vehicle 5 is stopped on the rear surface 8b side to perform refueling. Therefore, in the case of , refueling can be performed by moving the feeding positions of the refueling hoses 9 and 10 on the front surface 8a and the rear surface 8b toward the side surface 8c so that they are near the refueling ports 1a and 5a; When refueling the car 5, the refueling hose 10 is mounted above the car 5, which makes it difficult to refuel, and the refueling hose 10 comes into contact with the car 5, causing damage to the car body. .

Therefore, the present invention enables the hose outlet of the refueling hose to be moved in different directions from the main body of the refueling device so as to be closer to or away from the side of the refueling device, and when refueling multiple vehicles at the same time as described above. or when refueling a relatively long vehicle, etc.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a refueling device that can effectively utilize a plurality of refueling hoses and facilitate refueling work.

Means and Effects for Solving Problems The present invention provides a refueling hose consisting of a refueling hose connected to a refueling nozzle at its tip and connected to a liquid feeding means at its base end through a hose outlet provided in the main body of the refueling device. In a refueling system that is equipped with multiple systems and is equipped with a refueling amount indicator that displays the amount of refueling by each refueling system on each of the front and rear surfaces of the refueling system main body, the upper part of the refueling system main body is provided with a display on the left and right sides of the refueling system main body. First and second hose support parts are provided that extend to the respective hose supports, and each hose support part is provided with a hose moving mechanism that moves and guides the hose outlet toward and away from the side surface of the oil supply device main body. , a base end of a refueling hose constituting one of the plurality of refueling systems is connected to a hose outlet that is movably guided by a hose moving mechanism provided on the first hose support part, and the plurality of refueling systems When simultaneously refueling multiple automobiles by connecting the base end of a refueling hose constituting the other refueling system to a hose outlet that is movably guided by a hose moving mechanism provided on a second hose support.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 2, the hose support part 14,
The width dimension 15 may be any dimension necessary for sliding the swivel joint 24, which will be described later, along the guide groove. Therefore, since the width of the hose supports 14 and 15 is smaller than the width of the oil supply device main body 12, the oil supply nozzles 18 and 19 can be connected to the nozzle hooks 20 and 15.
21, the head of the refueling worker will be removed from the support part 14,
The inconvenience of coming into contact with 15 does not occur.

As shown in FIG. 2, inside the refueling device body 12 there are a first hose moving mechanism 22 that operates as the refueling hose 16 moves in the directions of arrows X ₁ and X ₂ and a first hose moving mechanism 22 that operates as the refueling hose 16 moves in the directions of arrows X ₁ and It has a second hose moving mechanism 23 that operates with movement in _two directions. The hose moving mechanisms 22 and 23 have substantially the same configuration, and include a swivel joint (hose outlet) 24 connected to the refueling hoses 16 and 17, and piping 25 and 2.
6, 27, swivel joints 28, 29 that connect the respective piping 25, 26, 27, and a swivel joint 30 that connects the piping 27 and the oil supply system (consisting of a oil supply pump, oil supply pipe, flow meter, etc.) It is configured.

Therefore, the refueling hoses 16 and 17 are
4, 15 along the guide grooves 14a, 15a with arrows
When moving in the X ₁ and X ₂ directions, the hose moving mechanism 2
The swivel joints 24 of 2 and 23 are connected to the guide grooves 14a and 1

Next, a case will be described in which a plurality of automobiles are simultaneously refueled using the refueling apparatus configured as described above.

As shown in FIG. 3, when refueling two automobiles at the same time, first the first automobile 1 is stopped at a position on the front 12a side of the refueling device 12 where the refueling port 1 faces the support portion 15. Next, the second car 5 is placed behind the car 1 so that the fuel filler port 5a is connected to the support part 14.
Stop at a position opposite to.

Here, connect one of the refueling nozzles 19 to the nozzle hook 2.
1, move the refueling hose 17 in the direction of arrow _X2 to the vicinity of the refueling port 1a, and insert the refueling nozzle 19 into the refueling port 1a of the automobile 1. Then, the other refueling nozzle 18 is removed from the nozzle hook 20, and after moving the refueling hose 16 in the direction of arrow _X1 to the vicinity of the refueling port 5a, the refueling nozzle 18 is inserted into the refueling port 5a of the automobile 5.

Therefore, the two cars stopped vertically 1,
5, when refueling hoses 16 and 5 at the same time,
Since the swivel joint 24 serving as the hose outlet 17 moves to a position close to the oil supply ports 1a and 5a, refueling work can be easily performed without forcibly pulling the oil supply hoses 16 and 17. Furthermore, since refueling can be performed without installing a refueling hose above the vehicle, the vehicle body will not be damaged.

Next, a case will be described in which refueling is performed on a vehicle 7 having a relatively long overall length. As shown in FIG. 4, the automobile 7 is stopped on the front side 12a of the refueling device main body 12 so that the driver's seat of the automobile 7 faces the refueling amount indicator 13. Next, the refueling nozzle 18 is removed from the nozzle hook 20, the refueling hose 16 is moved in the direction of arrow _X1 , and the refueling nozzle 18 is inserted into the refueling port 7a. In this way, even when refueling a long automobile 7, there is no problem that the refueling amount display 13 is difficult to see from the driver's seat.

Further, as shown in FIG. 5, a case will be described in which two oil supply apparatus main bodies 12, 12' are installed on an island 28. in this case. The two refueling device bodies 12, 12' are connected to the refueling hoses 17, 12' by hose supports 15, 14' extending close to and opposite each other.
16' can be refueled by drawing them out in the X ₂ and X ₁ directions, respectively, so the installation positions can be spaced apart accordingly.

Therefore, when multiple refueling device bodies are installed in the longitudinal direction on the same island 2, the refueling hoses 17 and 16' can extend in the directions of arrows X _{1 and} Since the possible range is wide, the number of installations of the main body of the refueling device can be reduced. That is, compared to the conventional system, the number of oil supply device bodies installed can be reduced and space can be saved accordingly.

In addition, in the above explanation, the hose moving mechanism was explained using a structure that combines a swivel joint and piping, but the structure is not limited to this, and for example, a flexible tube or the like may be used to connect the fluid supply system and the refueling hose. Of course.

Effects of the invention As mentioned above, according to the oil supply device of the present invention,
For example, when refueling multiple cars at the same time, 2
It is possible to refuel two cars stopped in tandem and at the same time without having to run the refueling hose over the top of the cars. By moving the fuel filler port to the opposite side, you no longer have to go through the trouble of refueling while installing a fuel hose above the vehicle, and you don't have to force the fuel hose to be pulled. Excessive force is not applied to the refueling hose, which reduces the burden on the worker, making refueling work easier and more efficient, and allows vehicles to move smoothly, especially in narrow gas stations. Furthermore, even when refueling a long automobile, there is no problem in that the refueling amount indicator is difficult to see from the driver's seat.
