Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a pistol for dispensing gaseous fluid, in particular gaseous fuel for motor vehicles.
  • Pistols for dispensing gaseous fuel for motor vehicles are known, provided with conduit for the passage of the fuel, which is dispensed through a dispensing head able to couple with a corresponding filler pipe for the injection of the fuel, provided on the motor vehicle.
  • the dispensing head is provided with a coupling device able to maintain said dispensing head in position on said filler pipe.
  • the present invention relates to a fuel dispensing pistol comprising a coupling device for the new filler pipes which is easy and convenient to activate.
  • the dispensing pistol further comprises at its exterior a lever for activating the coupling device and in its interior shutter means which allow to dispense the gaseous fuel when the pistol is coupled to the tank filler pipe.
  • the shutter means of the pistol according to the present invention comprise devices and are realised to prevent or in any case minimise the release of the gaseous fuel into the environment during the fuelling operation.
  • the coupling device of the pistol comprises a plurality of locking elements, a sleeve associated with the blocking elements, and able to slide between a non operative position, wherein the locking elements are free and allow the insertion of the pistol on the filler pipe, and an operative position wherein said locking elements are locked and do not allow the insertion and extraction of the pistol onto and from said filler pipe.
  • a gun for filling tanks of vehicles operating on methane which comprises a valve device and a connection snout , associated with a latch mechanism, the moving members of the device and mechanism are actuated with the aid of a rocking lever which is arranged so that the valve device cannot be open before securely fastening the snout to the end fitting and so that the said snout cannot be unlocked before the internal face of the gun has been decompressed.
  • the conduit 4 communicates with a chamber 5 obtained internally to the body 2 and provided with a threaded seat 6, wherein is screwed a dispensing head 7, destined to be coupled with a filler pipe 8 provided on the motor vehicle (not shown herein) to be supplied with the gaseous fuel.
  • the head 7 comprises a body 9, realised in two parts: a first part 10 and a second part 11.
  • the body 9 internally comprises a cavity 12, which communicates, at an extremity of the body 9, with the chamber 5.
  • shutter means 13 are presence, essentially constituted by a piston element 14, which allow the gaseous fuel to be dispensed when the pistol is coupled to the filler pipe 8.
  • the second part 11 presents a hole 15 surrounded by an annular ledge 16; within the hole 15 slides with little play the piston element 14.
  • the body 9 is divided into the two parts 10 and 11 in such a way as to allow the insertion of the piston element 14 into the cavity 12.
  • the piston element 14 presents a first extremity 17 inserted in the body 9 inside the cavity 12, and a second extremity 18, projecting from the body 9, destined to be coupled to the filler pipe 8, which in turn is connected with a conduit for the injection of the fuel in the tank (not shown herein) of the motor vehicle.
  • the element 14 further presents a blind axial hole 19 and a plurality of radial holes 20 (for instance four) located in the first extremity 17 and communicating with the axial hole 19.
  • the piston element 14 can slide in the hole 15 between two extreme positions: a first position wherein it is extracted with respect to the second part 11 of the body 9, and a second position wherein it is retracted.
  • a spring 21 tends to maintain the piston element 14 in the first extracted position.
  • the radial holes 20 are in communication with the cavity 12 and allow the passage of the gas from the cavity 12, and hence also from the chamber 5, through the axial hole 19 to the filler pipe 8.
  • the radial holes 20 are shut by the wall of the hole 15 not allowing the passage of the gas.
  • the first extremity 17 of the piston element 14 comprises a first mushroom head 22, which can is separable and, for instance, is connected by means of a threaded coupling to the central part of the piston element 14 in such a way as to allow the insertion of the piston element 14 into the hole 15.
  • the mushroom head 22 co-operates, for preventing the release of the gaseous fuel, with the annular ledge 16 that surrounds the hole 15, and for this purpose it is provided with a sealing gasket 23 oriented towards the annular ledge 16.
  • the head 22 has a tendency to be thrust against the annular ledge 16 by the spring 21, so that the gasket 23, which is relatively yielding, by deforming on the annular ledge 16, and in part also around it, guarantees the perfect seal, thereby preventing the gaseous fuel from leaking out when the piston 1 is in non operative conditions. Also the pressure of the gaseous fuel present in the cavity 12 favours the maintenance of the head 22 against the annular ledge 16.
  • the second extremity 18 of the element 14 comprises a second mushroom head 24 which can be realised in a single piece with the central part of the element 14.
  • the second mushroom head 24 is provided with a gasket 25, also relatively yielding, able to guarantee a hermetically sealed coupling between the element 14 and the filler pipe 8 of the motor vehicle tank.
  • the gasket is destined to co-operate with an annular ledge 26 with which the filler pipe 8 is provided.
  • the gasket 25 presents an inner diameter that is substantially similar to the inner diameter of the annular ledge 26 and a greater annular width than that of the annular ledge 26.
  • the gasket 25, being compressed on a smaller annular surface is deformed in such a way as to encompass the ledge 26 also laterally.
  • gas tightness is assured even if the filler pipe 8 is not aligned with the head 7.
  • the gasket 25 is housed in a seat 27, obtained in the second mushroom head 24. Some holes 28 are positioned on the bottom wall of the seat 27, i.e. in contact with the side of the gasket 25 opposite to the one destined to bear down on the filler pipe 8. The function of the holes 28 shall be clarified subsequently in the course of the explanation of the operation of the pistol and of the fuel dispensing phases.
  • the pistol 1 is also provided with a coupling device 29 to maintain the pistol 1, and in particular the head 7, coupled to the filler pipe 8.
  • the coupling device 29 comprises a sleeve 30 inserted to slide on tubular element 31 and on the head 7.
  • the tubular element 31 is on the same axis as the head 7 and is separated therefrom for a segment D.
  • the tubular element 31 is maintained away from the head 7 by a spring 32.
  • the tubular element 31 presents in the inner surface a series of spheres 33 positioned in appropriate seats 34 along a circumference of the inner lateral surface of the tubular element 31.
  • the spheres 33 serve to lock the piston 1 on the filler pipe 8, when the piston 1 is inserted for dispensing the gaseous fuel.
  • the outer lateral surface of the tubular element 31 presents a seat 35, whereinto is inserted an elastic ring 36, a first ledge 37 and a second ledge 38.
  • the elastic ring 36 serves as a first limit stop for the sleeve 30, which presents in correspondence and internally a first annular rib 39.
  • the latter and the first ledge 37 constitute the bearing extremities for a spring 40, inserted between the tubular element 31 and the sleeve 30.
  • the spring 40 acts in such a way as to maintain the sleeve 30, with its rib 39, set against the elastic ring 36.
  • the second ledge 38 co-operates with a second annular rib 41 positioned internally to the sleeve 30, constituting a second limit stop for the sleeve 30.
  • the sleeve 30 is therefore movable in the axial direction between a first ledge, constituted by the elastic ring 36, and the second ledge 38.
  • the seats 34 traverse the wall of the tubular element 31 and are realised in such a way as to allow the spheres 33 to project with respect to the inner surface of the tubular element 31 for a certain segment in radial direction towards the axis 42.
  • the seats 34 In the part 43, oriented towards the axis 42, the seats 34 present a slightly lesser diameter than the diameter of the spheres 33, so that the spheres 33 cannot exit the seat 34, in the direction towards the interior of the tubular element 31, while they can exit in the other direction to allow their introduction in the seats 34.
  • the part 43 is shaped as a spherical sector with decreasing diameter.
  • this shape presents the advantage of not having the tendency to block the spheres 33 in the seats 34 when the spheres are completely encased in the seat 34, i.e. projecting towards the axis 42.
  • the spheres 33 enter the seats 34 to allow the passage of the filler pipe 8 inside the tubular element 31.
  • the filler pipe 8 has a diameter that is only slightly lesser than the inner diameter of the tubular pipe 31.
  • the spheres 33 having a greater diameter than the thickness of the tubular element 31, in part also enter the annular slot 44.
  • the filler pipe 8 presents an outer annular seat 45, within which the spheres 33 can be inserted, when the pistol 1 must be locked onto the filler pipe 8 itself.
  • the annular seat 45 is so positioned as to face the spheres 33 when the filler pipe 8 is set against the tubular element 31. By axially moving the sleeve 30, the spheres 33 can no longer enter the annular slot 44.
  • the sleeve 30 can be axially displaced by a lever 46 able to rotate about a hinge 47 obtained in the body 2.
  • the lever 46 is provided with a fork 48 which co-operates with appropriate seats 49 obtained in the outer part of the sleeve 30.
  • the sleeve 30 is able to slide with respect to the tubular element 31, between a non operative positions ( Figures 1 and 3), wherein the spheres 33 can freely enter the annular slot 44 and an operative position ( Figure 5) wherein said spheres 33 are locked on a lesser diameter by the inner wall of the sleeve 30.
  • the pistol 1 is further provided with locking and unlocking means 50 for stabilising the sleeve 31 in the operative position and subsequently allowing its release by means of the release push-button 51.
  • the locking and unlocking means 50 are of a known type and therefore are not described in detail herein.
  • the head 7 (or more precisely the part 11 of the body 9) progressively opens the holes 20 of the piston element 14 placing the conduit 4 for supplying the gaseous fuel in communication with the tank of the motor vehicle to be refuelled, through the chamber 5 of the body 2, the cavity 12 of the head 7, the radial holes 20 and the axial hole 19 of the piston element 14 (see Figure 5).
  • the gasket 25 is temporarily unloaded by the pressing action of the piston element 14. Hence it is possible that gasket 25, remaining adherent to the annular ledge 26 of the filler pipe 8, becomes detached from its seat 27. The detachment action is favoured by the pressure of the gaseous fuel which seeps between the seat 27 and the gasket 25 thereby realising an ejection action of the gasket 25 itself.
  • some holes 28 are provided on the bottom of the seat 27. The holes 28 allow to unload the pressure of the gaseous fuel which may have seeped behind the gasket 25.
  • sequence of operations for inserting the pistol 1 on the filler pipe 8 is such as to minimise the release of the gaseous fuel into the environment.
  • the gasket 25 is already bearing on the annular ledge of the filler pipe 8, being pressed by the spring 21, and therefore the gaseous fuel cannot be released into the environment, but only enter the tank to be filled.
  • the filler pipe 8 is provided with a valve, not shown because it is of a known type, which opens automatically with the difference between the pressure of the tank to be filled and the pressure of the device for dispensing the gaseous fuel.
  • the second mushroom head 24 comprises means 52 for opening a valve 53 with which the filler pipe 8 can be provided.
  • the valve 53 is not automatic, but must be opened in a "positive” manner by appropriate means (namely, the means 52), the difference in pressure between the tank and the dispensing device not being sufficient.
  • the means 52 comprise a thrust pivot pin 54 positioned along the axis 42.
  • the pin 54 is connected to a disk 55 which is inserted, for instance by means of a threaded coupling 56, in the part of the head 24 oriented towards the filler pipe 8.
  • the disk 55 presents holes 57 for allowing the passage of the gaseous fuel.
  • the pivot pin 54 is made in such a manner as to open the valve 53 when the pistol 1 is inserted on the filler pipe 8.
  • the valve 53 comprises a sphere 58 pressed by a spring 59 in such a way as to close the passage of the filler pipe 8.
  • the spring 59 develops a force, lesser than that developed by the spring 21, so that the pivot pin 54 presses on the valve 53 and opens it.
  • the pivot pin 54 is able to slide with respect to the disk 55, which for this purpose presents a seat 60.
  • the pivot pin 54 in turn comprises a mushroom valve 61, fitted with a disk 62 pressed by a spring 63.
  • the disk 62 presents a truncated cone shaped surface 64 which couples with a corresponding truncated cone shaped seat 65.
  • the spring 63 develops a force whose intensity is comparable to that of the spring 59, so that the spring 53 and the mushroom valve 61 open nearly simultaneously.
  • the mushroom valve 61 therefore guarantees a further safety to prevent the release of the gaseous fuel into the environment.
  • Figure 6 shows a pistol 100, variation of the pistol 1 of the previous embodiments, and a filler pipe 80 slightly modified with respect to the filler pipe 8 of the previous embodiments. This embodiment does not form part of the invention.
  • the pistol 100 is fitted with a head 70, which is in turn fitted with shutter means 66 comprising a ball valve 67.
  • the ball valve 67 is similar to the valve 53 and comprises a ball 68 and a spring 69.
  • the spring 69 develops a force whose intensity is comparable to that of the spring 59, so that the valve 53 on the filler pipe 80 and the ball valve 66 open nearly simultaneously, preventing any release of gaseous fuel into the environment.
  • the head 70 comprises a section 71 able to couple with the filler pipe 80 and a series of spheres 72 housed in seats 73 positioned according to a circumference.
  • the seats 73 are identical to the seats 34 of the embodiment of Figure 1.
  • a sleeve 74 which is activated by the lever 46 as shown in the embodiment of Figure 2.
  • the sleeve 74, the section 71, the spheres 72 and the related seats constitute the coupling device 77 for the pistol 100 on the filler pipe 80.
  • the pistol 100 is in an uncoupled condition, with the possibility of its insertion on the filler pipe 80, when the lever 46 is pulled and the sleeve 74 presents an annular slot 75 aligned with the spheres 72. Subsequently, when the lever 46 is released the sleeve 74 advances towards the filler pipe 80 actuated by a spring 76. The annular slot 75 is therefore no longer aligned with the spheres 72, which thus lock the pistol 100 on the filler pipe 80. The pistol 100 therefore does not include the locking and unlocking means 50.
  • the sphere 58 of the filler pipe 80 and the sphere 68 of the pistol 100 are in equilibrium under the action of the respective springs 59 and 69 and thus allow the passage and dispensing of the fuel.
