Definitions

  • the invention relates to a storage tank for liquids with an inlet nozzle and a liquid quantity measuring device which is firmly connected to the tank and sealed and allows monitoring of the filling quantity introduced through the inlet nozzle.
  • a fuel tank for vehicles is known from German Offenlegungsschrift 14 80 046, in which a filling line which is firmly connected to the tank is designed as a measuring section in order to prevent deceptions about the amounts actually filled up.
  • the quantities delivered are measured at the petrol stations.
  • counterfeiting of the documents issued above can only be proven if the quantity taken in is also measured.
  • the measuring section contains, among other things, a gas separator, which is intended to make it possible, as usual, to let the fill liquid run into a relatively wide nozzle in a free jet with a natural gradient. Without such a gas separator, the gaseous constituents of the naturally forming liquid-gas-air mixture would falsify the measurement of the amount of liquid. Such gas separators are relatively voluminous, expensive and, above all, can be influenced from the outside in terms of their effectiveness.
  • the measuring device of this known fuel tank can be outwitted by blowing or pumping air under pressure into the filler neck. This sets the measuring mechanism in motion and simulates the absorption of fuel. The air would then be able to escape again through the ventilation line.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of proposing a storage tank for liquids with a fill-in control device which is simpler in design, likewise easy to handle and is both uninfluenceable and unsurmountable.
  • a storage tank of the type specified in the introduction in accordance with the invention in that a preferably collapsible sealing sleeve is provided on the inlet connection for the tight connection of a filling pipe and in that the quantity measuring device is equipped with a gas measuring contraceptive.
  • the tight connection of the filling pipe for example the fuel nozzle usually available at petrol stations, does not allow air to enter and gas to form before it passes through the measuring device assigned to the tank, so that a gas separator is not required.
  • a falsification of the measurement result by deliberate air supply for example in that the sealing sleeve is intentionally not applied tightly, can be prevented simply by choosing a quantity measuring device with an increased flow resistance, so that the liquid to be filled escapes from the sealing sleeve when it is not is tightly closed.
  • a real false measurement by pumping in pure air is achieved by arranging one in itself Known Gasmeßverhüters prevented before or in the measuring mechanism. This responds to the specific weight of the flow medium and blocks the measuring mechanism with gas.
  • Flow meters for liquids with increased flow resistance pose no technical problems. Rather, they are more accurate and cheaper, since the constructive efforts in measuring instrument construction usually aim to reduce the flow resistance while maintaining the measuring accuracy. Basically, vane wheel meters, oval wheel meters, ring piston meters and the like are suitable.
  • a spring-loaded shut-off valve which is not accessible from the outside, in the inlet connection or in the downstream filling line, which gives way to a liquid flowing in under pressure.
  • a spring-loaded flap could be considered, the opening pressure being adjustable with the aid of an adjusting device.
  • the opening pressure could be set so high that it is just about overcome by the usual feed pumps.
  • the sealing sleeve can be applied with a pliers-like clamping device.
  • it consists of an inflatable ring tube and thereby reducing its inner diameter.
  • a small air pump could be arranged on the tank to inflate the same. Since the filling ends, ie the filling pipes of fuel nozzles at petrol stations are usually profiled on their outer surface, ie they are provided or dented with longitudinal grooves or grooves, it is advisable to equip the inside of the sealing sleeve with a soft cushion or a sealing lip that can be fitted on.
  • the invention thus makes it possible to supply the gas-free liquid flow made available at petrol pumps to a second volume measurement without air admission and thus to measure the quantity to be filled in with sufficient accuracy using a relatively simple measuring device.
  • the fact that the liquid is made available at filling stations with a certain filling pressure is used to force the people involved in filling the tank to have a tight connection of the filling line.
  • the invention is not limited to fuel tanks. Rather, it can be used with all other liquid tanks if there is a need to control the filling quantity, be it to rule out deliberate attempts at deception or only to check the measuring devices on the delivery side.
  • the tank which is only partially shown, has a wall 1 and a ceiling 2.
  • a horizontal section 4 and an inclined section 5 of a filling line are connected to an inclined inlet connection 3.
  • a volume counter 6 for the filled-in liquid is inserted into the horizontal section.
  • This also contains a gas measuring device known per se, which could also be connected upstream.
  • a display device 7, which can be read from the outside, is contained in an approach of the volume counter which stands upwards through the ceiling 2.
  • a flap 8 In the direction of flow in front of the volume meter there is a flap 8, which is acted upon by a spring 9 and only releases the filling line from a certain pressure.
  • a sealed grid insert 10 in the filler neck 3 which makes any unauthorized access to the flap 8 or the volume meter 6 impossible.
  • the seals used are not specifically indicated.
  • the screwing of the display device 7, not shown, is also sealed.
  • the display device could be protected against inspection by a sealed or lockable flap.
  • a seal is provided on the opening of the filler neck 3 direction captive. It consists of a ring 11 and a sealing sleeve in the form of an annular hose 12 made of an elastomeric material which can be inflated by means of a small pump (not shown) and corresponding valve devices.
  • the cuddly, padded inner surface of the ring hose lies tightly around the outlet pipe 13 of a fuel nozzle 14.
  • part of the usual ventilation line 15 is indicated, which can be raised on the outside of the inlet nozzle 3.
  • the outlet pipe 13 of the fuel nozzle 14 is inserted into the inlet connection 3 and a tight connection is created by inflating the ring hose 12.
  • the air contained in the inlet nozzle 3 and in the outlet pipe 13 is forced through the volume meter 6 when the nozzle 14 is opened, but this does not count as a result of the gas meter. This results in a very precise check-in quantity control that is protected against any attempt at deception.
