Description
- The present invention relates to a device for placing information/advertising on the filler gun of a fuel pump, comprising a carrying body placed on the head of the gun having at least one display surface for said information/advertising as is disclosed in the preamble in independent claim 1 hereinbelow.
- The affixing of information on the head of a filler gun is known from, inter alia, US Patent No. 5.058.637 where a securing means in the form of an elastic stocking is fed onto the filler gun, said stocking being equipped with a display surface for information or advertising, which surface is covered by a transparent cover. The display surface in this known solution is circular and is limited to a small part only of the gun head and the space available for information and/or advertising is limited. The actual method of securing the display surface, which comprises a flexible dead mould cast sleeve, restricts the use of a device of this kind to filler guns which have a special form. This problem can, of course, be solved by manufacturing sleeves of different forms adapted to fit filler guns of different shapes.
- The purpose of the present invention is to provide a device for placing information/advertising on the head of a filler gun and which does not have the disadvantages of a limited display surface referred to hereinabove.
- This is achieved according to the present invention by means of the characteristic features which are disclosed in the characterizing clause of claim 1 hereinbelow and the dependent claims also hereinbelow.
- 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.
- As disclosed in the subsequent description of the drawings, the securing component may consist of an attachment band fixed to the underside of the carrying body by means of suitable means such as adhesives, welding or mechanical fixing wherein the attachment band is fixed to the carrying body by means of an eye/groove provided on the underside of said carrying body. The attachment band may also be in the form of a hose clip.
- The attachment band may also consist of two arms which form an integrated part of the carrying body, the ends of said arms being optionally furnished with a barb, and also a through-going screw with nuts being arranged between the carrying body and the gun head, which press said arms against the gun head.
- Other features of the invention which are disclosed in the subsequent dependent claims will be described in more detail in the following description of the invention made with reference to the drawing.
- In the drawing
- figure 1 illustrates a carrying body with a display surface and an attachment band fixed to its underside,
- figure 2 depicts a transparent cover for mounting on top of an information and advertising sticker positioned on the display surface,
- figure 2a depicts said sticker,
- figure 3 illustrates a carrying body with two display surfaces square to one another,
- figure 4 depicts a transparent cover designed for contact with the whole of the display surface,
- figure 4a shows an information and advertising sticker adapted to fit the extra long display surface,
- figure 5 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 6 shows the back of the display surface and the skirt in figure 5 which is pivotally attached to the front and can be secured in an angular position by means of securing organs,
- figure 7 illustrates the front of the carrying body according to figure 5,
- figure 8 shows an attachment band of the tension adjusting kind,
- figure 9 shows a filler gun seen from the side, and
- figure 10 shows a carrying body with two resilient clamps fixed to the underside thereof.
- Figures 1 and 2 thus show in perspective a flat carrying
body 3 with adisplay surface 4 surrounded by an upwardly projectingedge 10, whereby arecess 11 is formed for accommodating information/advertising 1 in the form of a sheet of paper or card of the kind illustrated in figure 2a. Atransparent cover 12 having securingorgans 13 in the form of projecting lugs can be placed in therecess 11 on top of the information/advertising label 1 and is secured by the lugs being brought into engagement withcomplementary securing organs 14 in the form of openings in said upwardly projectingedge 10. It is shown clearly on the drawing that the carrying body, and thus the sheet containing information/advertising, is elongate, which gives rise to alarge display area 4 which extends in the longitudinal direction of thegun head 2a approximately from therear edge 2b' of thegun barrel 2b at theforemost edge 2a' of thegun head 2a and backwards to theforemost edge 2c' of thehandle 2c of thegun head 2a, cf. figure 9. Thisdisplay 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 5 of thecarrying body 3 comprises anattachment band 5a fixed to the underside of thecarrying 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. Theattachment band 5a may, of course, optionally be attached to the underside of thecarrying body 3 by any kind of means whatsoever such as adhesives or welding. Theattachment band 5a may consist of a 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. Theattachment band 5a can also be made of a hose clip secured to the underside of the carryingbody 3. These various forms of attachment bands are designed first and foremost to grip the foremost part of thegun head 2a or around thebarrel 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 thehead 2a of the gun. - The
attachment component 5 can, in a special design not shown in the drawing, consist of a sleeve attached to the underside of the carryingbody 3 which is designed to be fed onto thegun 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 5, 6 and 7 where the carrying
body 3 is made with a skirt 7 which projects downwardly from thedisplay surface 4 in order to envelop the sides of thegun head 2a and having an opening 5b, the function of which corresponds to that of the aforementioned sleeve, which constitutesattachment component 5 in the skirt 7. The opening 5b is arranged at oneend 3a of the carryingbody 3 to enable said carrying body to be fed onto thegun barrel 2b and optionally onto the foremost end of thegun head 2a. - The
back 3b of thecarrying body 3 is attached to theforward part 3a thereof so as to be upwardly pivotal via ahinge 8 across thedisplay surface 4. The skirt 7 is split at this point, the split extending from each end of thehinge 8 and out to theedge 7a of the skirt andreleasable 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 thegun head 2a. In this design of thecarrying body 3, the display surface will be divided into two 4a,4b, each of which can carry appropriate information/advertising. This design of thesurfaces carrying body 3 thus provides adisplay surface 4 which extends over a substantial part of the length of thegun head 2a. - A corresponding
elongate display surface 4 consisting of two 4a,4b square to one another is shown in figure 3 which illustrates a carrying body with a front part equivalent to the carrying body according to figure 1 and having an extension at it rear end, whereby thepart surfaces total display surface 4 comprises a front and a 4a,4b square to one another.back part - The
attachment component 5 can, in an alternative design, consist of aresilient clamp 5c made of steel or any other expedient material, secured to the underside of thecarrying body 3 with theclamp arms 5d projecting outwards from the underside. The carryingbody 3 can hereby quite simply be pushed from above onto the filler gun 2 so that theresilient clamp 5c grips around thegun barrel 2b orgun head 2a. - Optionally, the carrying body can be equipped with two
resilient clamps 5c which grip around each of two said parts of the filler gun 2. - The
carrying body 3 and theattachment component 5, optionally in the form of said skirt 7 with opening 5b, can be manufactured in an elastic material, eg, in that all parts are dead mould cast in one piece. - Thus the carrying
body 3 can be mounted on the filler gun 2 in that thegun barrel 2b, or the front part of thegun head 2b, is inserted into theattachment component 5 which has an opening 5b. Optionally, the attachment component can be made of saidresilient clamp 5c, whereby thecarrying 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 thecarrying 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, 3 and 5 is desirable. The label can hereby be placed in therecess 11 and covered by means of the transparent cover orcover 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.
