Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device attachable to a filler gun of a fuel pump of the kind having in series a gun barrel, a gun head and a gun handle, said gun barrel having its rear end joining a front end of said gun head at a first junction on said filler gun, and said gun head having its rear end joining a front end of said gun handle at a second junction on said filler gun, said device providing a display surface supported by a carrying body, for displaying one or more graphic messages readily viewable by a gun user, means being provided for detachably securing said carrying body to the filler gun.
  • a device of the above type is known from US A-5 058 637 which in order to overcome prior art placement of a permanent advertisement on a part of a filler gun boot fitted onto the filler gun head, viz. the substantially flat region of the gun head, provides a platform for supporting a replaceable message placard at said flat region.
  • said flat region only forms a small part of the top of the filler gun.
  • the present invention aims at solving the problem of optimizing the size of the viewable display area, in particular when filling up the fuel tank of a car, without causing any risk of damaging the car body adjacent the filling hole therein and without the disadvantage of having at least parts of a message non-readable when carrying out such filling operation.
  • said carrying body has a first portion and a second portion each having a planar top face, said faces having a common line of contact to form an edge and forming a mutual angle with each other when the device is attached to said filler gun, and in that said display surface is divided into first and second display portions disposed on said first and second top faces, respectively, so as to meet and to form an angle which is equal to the mutual angle between said top faces, the entire display surface extending longitudinally along the filler gun from approximately said first junction to approximately the second junction.
  • a larger display surface, with space for both information and advertising, is thus provided in that the display surface of the carrying body extends over a substantial part of the length of the head of the gun.
  • Figure 1 illustrates a carrying body with two display surfaces at an angle to one another
  • Figure 2 depicts a transparent cover designed for contact with the whole of the display surface
  • Figure 2a shows an information and advertising sticker adapted to fit the extra long display surface
  • Figure 3 illustrates the carrying body with a downwardly projecting skirt for enveloping the sides of the gun head and with an opening for interaction with the gun barrel
  • Figure 4 shows the back of the display surface and the skirt in Figure 3 which is pivotally attached to the front and can be secured in an angular position by means of securing means
  • Figure 5 illustrates the front of the carrying body according to Figure 3
  • Figure 6 shows a filler gun seen from the side.
  • FIG. 1 thus show a flat carrying body 3 with a display surface 4 surrounded by an upwardly projecting edge 10, whereby a recess 11 is formed for accommodating information/advertising 1 in the form of a sheet of paper or card.
  • a transparent cover 12 having securing means 13 in the form of projecting lugs can be placed in the recess 11 on top of the information/advertising label 1 and is secured by the lugs being brought into engagement with complementary securing means 14 in the form of openings in said upwardly projecting edge 10.
  • the carrying body and thus the sheet containing information/advertising, is elongate, which gives rise to a large display area 4 which extends in the longitudinal direction of the gun head 2a approximately from the rear edge 2b' of the gun barrel 2b at the foremost edge 2a' of the gun head 2a and backwards to the foremost edge 2c' of the handle 2c of the gun head 2a, cf.
  • This display surface 4 can contain clear information regarding, for example, the quality and brand of the fuel on one part, and an advertisment on the other part.
  • the attachment component of the carrying body 3 comprises an attachment band fixed to the underside of the carrying body 3 by means of an eye/groove 6.
  • the eye/groove 6 may optionally be grooved on the side which faces down towards the filler gun.
  • the attachment band may, of course, optionally be attached to the underside of the carrying body 3 by any kind of means whatsoever such as adhesives or welding.
  • the attachment band may consist of a conventional tension adjusting band where one end of said band comprises a leading-in means for securing the other end of the band when it is fed in and tightened.
  • the attachment band can also be made of a hose clip secured to the underside of the carrying body 3.
  • attachment bands are designed first and foremost to grip the foremost part of the gun head 2a or around the barrel 2b of the filler gun 2. On moderate tightening of the attachment band, the carrying body will be held secure in the correct position on the head 2a of the gun.
  • the attachment component can, in a special design not shown in the drawing, consist of a sleeve attached to the underside of the carrying body 3 which is designed to be fed onto the gun barrel 2b thereby holding the carrying body in a fixed position on the gun head.
  • the sleeve can be elastic thereby being provided with a clamp effect which reinforces the holding effect.
  • Said sleeve can be made in a special way as shown in Figures 3, 4 and 5 where the carrying body 3 is made with a skirt 7 which projects downwardly from the display surface 4 in order to envelop the sides of the gun head 2a and having an opening 5b, the function of which corresponds to that of the aforementioned sleeve, which constitutes attachment component 5 in the skirt 7.
  • the opening 5b is arranged at one end 3a of the carrying body 3 to enable said carrying body to be fed onto the gun barrel 2b and optionally onto the foremost end of the gun head 2a.
  • the back 3b of the carrying body 3 is attached to the forward part 3a thereof so as to be upwardly pivotal via a hinge 8 across the display surface 4.
  • the skirt 7 is split at this point, the split extending from each end of the hinge 8 and out to the edge 7a of the skirt and releasable securing organs 9 are arranged in the facing splits in the skirt 7. In this way said back 3b can be pivoted downwards in the mounted position on the filler gun and interlock with the back of the gun head 2a.
  • the display surface will be divided into two surfaces 4a,4b, each of which can carry appropriate information/advertising.
  • This design of the carrying body 3 thus provides a display surface 4 which extends over a substantial part of the length of the gun head 2a.
  • FIG. 1 A corresponding elongate display surface 4 consisting of two part surfaces 4a,4b of an angle to one another is shown in Figure 1 which illustrates a carrying body with a rounded front part and having an extension at it rear end, whereby the total display surface 4 comprises a front and a back part 4a,4b at an angle to one another.
  • the carrying body 3 and the attachment component 5, optionally in the form of said skirt 7 with opening 5b, can be manufactured in an elastic material, e.g., in that all parts are moulded in one piece.
  • the carrying body 3 can be mounted on the filler gun 2 in that the gun barrel 2b, or the front part of the gun head 2b, is inserted into the attachment component 5 which has an opening 5b.
  • the attachment component can be made of said resilient clamp, whereby the carrying body 3 quite simply is pressed into place from the top of the gun head.
  • Advertising/information labels can be attached to the display surface 4 of the carrying body 3 in any expedient manner whatsoever such as by using an adhesive. However, to facilitate changing the labels and at the same time achieve protection of the information/advertising label 1, the solution according to Figures 1 and 3-5 is desirable.
  • the label can hereby be placed in the recess 11 and covered by means of the transparent cover or cover plate 12.
  • the device according to the invention will, on use, provide a petrol/fuel customer with clear and full information with regard to the brand and quality of the fuel. This should prevent a vehicle from being filled with the wrong fuel and thereby save the customer from the problems this would cause and save the petrol station/company from any liability for damages in that the filler gun carries clear information about the fuel quality which the customer could not possibly fail to see. During the actual process of filling his vehicle, the consumer will, at the same time, have ample opportunity to read the advertisement/message that has been affixed to the display surface.
