[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a cartridge tank used for an oil burner such as an oil heater or a hot air heater.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In general, a cartridge tank used in an oil-fired machine is provided with a lubrication base on one end face serving as a bottom portion of a tank body, as disclosed in, for example, Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 63-6593. A rotatable handle for suspending and holding the tank body is provided on the other end face opposite to the refueling base. When refilling the cartridge tank, the user pulls the tank body out of the device body with the handle, holds the handle again after refueling, carries the tank body to the device body while suspending the tank body, and sets it in the device body.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the invention] By the way, in recent years,
In order to minimize the number of times of refueling, a large cartridge tank having a large tank body of 6 to 8 liters is known. In this case, when the kerosene is replenished to the tank body, there is a problem that the tank becomes heavy enough to be very difficult to carry and the handling becomes inconvenient.

[0004] In addition, when the handle is held, the refueling cap is turned downward, so that there is a concern that kerosene may be dripped from the refueling cap attached to the refueling cap when carrying.

[0005] The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned circumstances, and makes it possible to easily carry the tank body even when the tank body has a large capacity and to prevent oil dripping from the refueling unit. The purpose is.

[0006]

This invention SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION, when the other end face of the tank body having a fuel supply unit to one end face Ru provided casters
Both are rotatable at appropriate places on the tank body near the refueling section.
In this configuration, a handle for towing is provided .

[0007]

[0008]

[0009]

[Function] With this configuration, the casters are used.
When moving the tank body, raise the handle and
The tank body can be pulled with the handle and the tank body is large.
Even if the capacity is large, you can easily carry it, and
When moving, the refueling part faces upward.
Don't worry about anyone. Also, refuel the towing handle
Since it is provided rotatably in the appropriate position of the nearby tank body,
When setting the tank body on the equipment,
Can be kept out of the way .

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS One embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a tank main body 1 formed in a substantially rectangular parallelepiped. The tank main body 1 has a lubrication base 3 having a fuel supply cap 2 attached to one end face 1A serving as a bottom, and the other end face 1B serving as an upper part. Is provided with a pair of casters 4, 4 and a grounding leg 5. As shown in FIG. 2, the pair of casters 4, 4 are arranged on one side of the other end surface 1B so as to be separated from each other.
It is arranged on the other side of the other end face 1B away from the casters 4,4. The height of the grounding leg 5 is set substantially equal to the height of the casters 4, 4. When the tank body 1 is set up with the refueling base 3 up, the tank is fixed by the casters 4, 4 and the grounding leg 5. The main body 1 is stably supported. An insertion opening 6 into which a fingertip can be inserted is opened by cutting and raising the inner surface of the grounding leg 5, and the tank body 1 is lifted by inserting a fingertip into the insertion opening 6 and gripping the grounding leg 5. It is supposed to be.

A base 7A, 7A of a handle 7 formed by bending a metal wire is provided at a proper position on one side 1C of the tank body 1 near the refueling base 3, and a pair of support fittings 8, 8 rotatably pivoted. The handle 7 has a substantially L-shape in side view.
The tank 7 is overturned, and its tip 7B is connected to the other end 1 of the tank body 1.
By being locked to the holder 9 mounted on B, the rotation is prevented and a stable state is maintained. In this case, the entire handle 6 is composed of one side surface 1C and the other end surface 1B of the tank body 1.
Approaching these planes.

Reference numeral 10 denotes an oil tank such as an oil tray in which the tank main body 1 is set upside down. The oil tank 10 is provided in an oil burner main body (not shown).
The kerosene to be supplied to the combustion section is stored in a substantially constant amount.

In the above configuration, when the tank body 1 is to be pulled out from the oil-fired combustor body (not shown), a fingertip is inserted into the insertion port 6 of the grounding leg 5 and the tank body 1 is pulled out while holding the grounding leg 4. . In this case, since the fuel inside the tank main body 1 is empty or small, the tank main body 1 can be easily carried to the refueling place by grasping and suspending the grounding leg 4.

In the case of refueling, when the tank body 1 is set up so that the other end face 1B provided with the casters 4 and 4 faces down, the refueling cap 3 is raised, and the refueling cap 2 is removed therefrom. Refuel. At this time, the tank body 1 stands upright in a substantially vertical state by the casters 4, 4 and the grounding leg 5, and is stably supported.

Next, when carrying the tank body 1 after refueling, the tip portion 7 of the handle 7 engaged with the holder 9 is required.
B is removed from the holder 9, and the handle 7 is turned up as shown in FIG. Then, the tank body 1 is moved by holding the tip 7B of the handle 7 and bringing the caster 4 into contact with the floor surface a. In this case, the tank body 1 can be rolled on the floor using the casters 4 and moved, so that the tank body 1 has a large capacity, and even if the kerosene is fully replenished inside, the tank body 1 can be easily dropped. Can be carried around. Here, the caster 4 has the other end surface 1B of the tank body 1 opposite to the one end surface 1A having the refueling base 3.
Therefore, when the tank body 1 is moved using the casters 4, the fueling cap 3 can be directed upward, and oil dripping from the fueling cap 3 and the fuel cap 2 can be prevented.

Next, when the tank body 1 has been moved to a predetermined place, the handle 7 is tilted down, the tip 7B of the tank body is locked to the holder 9, the tank body 1 is grasped by the grounding leg 4, and the tank body 1 is lifted. It is stored in a storage section of the machine body (not shown).
Here, the handle 7 has its base end 7A rotatably pivoted by a pair of support fittings 8, 8 fixed to an appropriate position on one side surface 1C of the tank body 1 near the refueling base 3. When the tank body 1 is moved by using the casters 4, the handle 7 is raised, the tip 7A of the handle 7 can be easily grasped by hand, and when the tank body 1 is set in the apparatus, the handle 7 is used. Can be knocked out of the way.

The present invention is clear from the above description.
A caster is provided on the other end of the tank body having a lubrication section on one end.
And a tank in the proper position on the tank body near the refueling section.
Is equipped with a towing handle,
When moving the tank body using the
The tank body can be pulled with the tank body
Is easy to carry even with large capacity
Can be moved upward so that the refueling
Prevents oil dripping from the floor,
Worries can be resolved, and the towing handle is located near the refueling section.
The tank is rotatably mounted in the appropriate location on the tank body,
When setting the link body to the equipment,
Can be knocked out of the way, making it easy to handle
Can be provided .
