Abstract
A method of and apparatus for secure dispensing of fluid with an additive and without an additivbe from a delivery duct (1) on a delivery truck without cross contamination between the two types of fluid is disclosed. The delivery end of the delivery duct (1) is divided into two dedicated delivery ducts, a duct (2) dedicated to fluid with the additive and a duct (3) dedicated to fluid without the additive. The additive is added to the fluid in the dedicated delivery duct (2). Valve 4 is used for switching flow from the main delivery duct (1) to one or other of the dedicated ducts (2) and (3). Valve 4 includes sealing devices (12,13,14) which are adapted to prevent tampering or which indicate when tampering has occurred. <Figure 1>
Description
METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SECURE DISPENSING FROM A DELIVERY DUCT OF FLUID WITH AND WITHOUT AN ADDITIVE
A method of and apparatus for secure dispensing of fluid with an additive and without an additive from a delivery duct (1) on a delivery truck without cross contamination between the two types of fluid is disclosed. The delivery end of the delivery duct (1) is divided into two dedicated delivery ducts, a duct (2) dedicated to fluid with the additive and a duct (3) dedicated to fluid without the additive. The additive is added to the fluid in the dedicated delivery duct (2). Valve 4 is used for switching flow from the main delivery duct (1) to one or other of the dedicated ducts (2) and (3). Valve 4 includes sealing devices (12,13,14) which are adapted to prevent tampering or which indicate when tampering has occurred.
Claims (5)
1. Apparatus for secure dispensing of fluid with an additive and without an additive from a delivery duct on a delivery means without cross contamination between the two types of fluid characterised in that the delivery end of the delivery duct is divided into two dedicated delivery ducts, one dedicated to fluid with the additive and one dedicated to fluid without the additive, the additive being added to the fluid in one of the dedicated delivery ducts which is dedicated to fluid with the additive.
2. Apparatus as claimed in Claim 1, including means for switching flow from the main delivery duct to one or other of the dedicated ducts; optionally in which the switching means includes sealing means which are adapted to prevent tampering or which indicate when tampering has occurred; optionally in which flow is switched from the main delivery duct to one or other of the dedicated ducts by a valve comprising a housing with openings to the ducts and a member with an internal pathway which is operable to sealably connect the opening from the main delivery duct to one or other of the openings to the dedicated ducts but where the parts are geometrically arranged such that they cannot fully or partly connect the main delivery duct to both dedicated ducts at the same time; and optionally in which the member with the internal pathway is movable or rotatable by an actuator which is operable by compressed air and includes means by which access to the air connections is shielded by a member secured in position by a wire seal or where the connections cannot be removed without breaking a wire seal, for example using screwed connections with rotation prevented by a wire seal threaded through holes in the relevant parts.
3. A method for secure dispensing of fluid with an additive and without an additive from a delivery duct on a delivery means without cross contamination between the two types of fluid characterised by dividing the delivery end of the delivery duct into two dedicated delivery ducts, one dedicated to fluid with the additive and one dedicated to fluid without the additive, the additive being added to the fluid in one of the dedicated delivery ducts which is dedicated to fluid with the additive. IE 9901.69 -194. A method as claimed in Claim 3, including switching flow from the main delivery duct to one or other of the dedicated ducts; optionally including sealing the switching means in a manner to prevent tampering or to indicate when tampering has occurred; optionally including switching flow from the main delivery duct to one or other of the
4. 5 dedicated ducts by a valve comprising a housing with openings to the ducts and a member with an internal pathway which is operable to sealably connect the opening from the main delivery duct to one or other of the openings to the dedicated ducts but where the parts are geometrically arranged such that they cannot fully or partly connect the main delivery duct to both dedicated ducts at the same time; and optionally including moving or rotating the 5. 10 member with the internal pathway by an actuator by compressed air and shielding access to the air connections by a member secured in position by a wire seal or where the connections cannot be removed without breaking a wire seal, for example using screwed connections with rotation prevented by a wire seal threaded through holes in the relevant parts. 15
5. A method of, and apparatus for secure dispensing of fluid with an additive and without an additive from a delivery duct on a delivery means without cross contamination between the two types of fluid substantially as herein described with reference to and as shown in the accompanying drawings. 20 MACLACHLAN & DONALDSON
