This cylinder stand 60 includes a base board 64 that is fixedly placed on the floor of an equipment storage area, a center pole 61 that is erected in the center of the base board 64, and radial horizontals that are fixed to the center pole 61 in two steps, upper and lower. The bracket 62 and a holding ring 63 fixed to the tip of the horizontal bracket 62.

The cylinder B is inserted into and removed from the upper and lower holding rings 63 in two steps. At this time, the bottom side surface and the body side surface of the cylinder B are the inner peripheral edge portion and the inner peripheral surface of the holding ring 63. Since it often slides against the side surface, the surface coating of the cylinder B was damaged, and various symbols such as the filling gas name and affiliation name displayed on the coated surface were stripped off. The problem of damage due to rubbing of the holding ring 63 when inserting and removing the cylinder B occurs almost regardless of the difference between the inner diameter of the holding ring 63 and the outer diameter of the cylinder B. Since the contact with is a surface contact having a constant width and length, it is further promoted.

When transporting a cylinder from a storage location to a service location such as a patient's bedside, a hand truck 70 as illustrated in FIG. 14 is used. The hand cart 70 has wheels 74 mounted on the meeting portion of a base plate 71 and a standing frame 72, and arc-shaped receiving plates 73 are horizontally fixed to the standing frame 72 in two upper and lower stages. Cylinder stand 6

Is floated from the floor and transported to the service area.

In the hand cart 70, when the cylinder B is placed on the base plate 71, the outer surface of the body of the cylinder B is brought into sliding contact with the inner peripheral edge portion and the inner surface of the arcuate receiving plate 73. Further, the outer surface of the body of the cylinder B collides with the inner surface of the arcuate receiving plate 73 due to vibration shock during transportation. Therefore, the surface coating of the cylinder B was damaged, and various symbols such as the filling gas name and the affiliation name displayed on the coated surface were stripped off. The problem of damage caused by rubbing against the arcuate receiving plate 73 when the cylinder B is placed or transported occurs almost regardless of the difference between the inner diameter of the receiving plate 73 and the outer diameter of the cylinder B.
Since the contact between 3 and the cylinder B is a surface contact having a constant width and length, it is further promoted.

For the cylinder B which has been damaged in this way, it is necessary to carry out a partial or full surface coating repair work depending on the condition of damage, but compared with the mechanical life of the cylinder B itself, Since it takes a short time for the surface coating to be repaired, the repair work must be performed many times, which increases maintenance costs.

[0007]
