Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a refueling device installed at a refueling station for refueling automobiles and the like with fuel such as gasoline, and particularly to an indicator.

[Conventional technology]

Such refueling equipment is equipped with a display that displays refueling data. Conventionally, there are three types of refueling data to be displayed: refueling amount, refueling amount, and unit price. For example, a dot-type display is used as the display. In the case of a device that uses a device, the display sections for these three types of refueling data may be arranged in horizontal rows at appropriate intervals, or the display section for the amount of refueling and the display section for the amount of refueling and unit price may be separated and formed into two sheets. are doing.

All of the three types of refueling data mentioned above are displayed here, or only the amount of refueling is displayed since the unit price varies depending on the customer.

By the way, when consumption tax is levied on this refueling amount, in addition to displaying the three types of refueling data mentioned above, two types of new data are required: refueling amount including consumption tax and consumption tax amount, for a total of five types. Display of data is required.

However, since such a consumption tax did not previously exist, there is no established refueling device equipped with a display section for the refueling amount including consumption tax and consumption tax amount, and there is no conventional refueling device equipped with such a display. The display could only display three types of data, and could not display tax data such as the amount of refueling including consumption tax and the amount of consumption tax.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

Therefore, as a means of displaying the refueling amount including consumption tax and the consumption tax amount, it may be possible to form these display sections side by side with the conventional refueling data display section, but in this case, a large number of display sections would be arranged side by side. Therefore, the number of displayed items is 5.
There are too many types, and the displayed data is expressed in numbers, so it may be difficult to read at a glance and understand the contents, especially if it is in a dot format. In addition, the display device is also large, resulting in high cost.

The purpose of the present invention is to take the above circumstances into consideration, and it is possible to display not only the amount of refueling, the amount of refueling, and the unit price, but also the amount of refueling including consumption tax and the amount of consumption tax.In this case, the display can also be displayed in a dot format. To provide a refueling device equipped with a display that is easy to see and does not cause misunderstanding, and does not increase the cost due to enlargement of the display.

[Means to solve the problem]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention displays only the refueling amount or the refueling amount, the refueling amount, and the unit price during refueling, and after refueling, the refueling amount including consumption tax, the refueling amount, and the consumption tax amount are displayed by the display switching means instead of the above display. The gist is that a dot-type display is provided that scrolls and displays the information.

[Effect]

According to the present invention, during refueling, only the refueling amount or refueling data such as the refueling amount, refueling amount, and unit price are displayed on the display provided in the refueling device, and after refueling is completed, the display switching means displays the refueling data during refueling. The refueling data display is erased, and in its place, tax data such as the refueling amount including consumption tax, the amount of refueling, and the amount of consumption tax are continuously scrolled and displayed on the same display. Therefore, a total of five types of display, including refueling data and tax data, are displayed on one display, and the tax data is displayed immediately after the refueling data is displayed, and is scrolled immediately after, so that it is clearly visible.

(Example〕 Embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is an explanatory diagram showing an embodiment of the oil supply device of the present invention, and FIG.
The figure is a front view showing an example of the display, which is the main part of the above. First, to explain the overall configuration of the refueling system, the figure shows a ground-fixed refueling system, which is installed on the island 1 installed on the ground. A housing 2 is installed upright, and a fuel supply pipe 3 communicating with an underground fuel storage tank (not shown) is set up in the housing 2. A fuel pump 5 with a fuel motor 4 connected to the fuel pipe 3, and a flow rate pulse pump are installed in the housing 2. Flowmeters 7 connected to transmitters 6 are sequentially arranged, and the tip of the oil supply pipe 3 is led out of the housing 2, where a fuel hose 9 having a fuel nozzle 8 is connected thereto.

In addition, a nozzle hook lO is provided on the side of the housing 2,
A nozzle switch 11 that turns on and off in conjunction with the hooking and unhooking of the refueling nozzle 8 is provided here, and a display 12 for displaying refueling data such as the amount of refueling is provided on the front surface of the housing 2.

This display 12 is composed of a dot display, and has display sections 12a, 12b, and 12c.During refueling, for example, the amount of refueling, the amount of refueling, and the unit price are displayed in order from the left side, and each display section is shown below. 12a, 12b, 12C as unit display 13 rYEN" rL ITERJ'YE
Write down the letters N/LITERJ. Furthermore, after refueling is completed, tax data is displayed on the entire display section.

Incidentally, light bulbs, liquid crystals, etc. may be used as the dots, but plasma displays are superior because they do not have to worry about disconnection, have excellent temperature resistance, and have a fast response speed.

Further, a control device 14 using a conventionally well-known microcomputer or the like is provided as a control means for oil supply and display, and a third
As shown in the control block diagram, the control device 14 is provided with display switching means 15 for switching between displaying refueling data during refueling and displaying tax data after refueling.

Then, the on signal from the nozzle switch 11 when the refueling nozzle 8 is removed is introduced as a drive signal to the motor drive means 16 that controls the refueling motor 4, and this on signal is used as a reset signal from the flow rate pulse transmitter 6. Refueling amount counting means 17, refueling amount calculating means 18, tax-included amount calculating means 19, consumption tax amount calculating means 20, to which the pulse signal is guided
and introduce each of them.

The count signal of the refueling amount counting means 17 is introduced into the display driving means 21 that drives the display 12 via the display switching means 15, and is also introduced into the refueling amount calculation means 18, and the amount signal of the refueling amount calculating means 18 is inputted. was introduced into the display drive means 21 via the display switching means 15.

A unit price signal from the unit price storage means 22 is introduced into the refueling amount calculating means 18, and the unit price signal from the unit price storage means 22 is also introduced into the display driving means 21 via the display switching means 15.

In addition, the tax-included amount calculation means 1 uses the amount signal from the refueling amount calculation means 18 and the off signal from the nozzle switch 11 by returning the refueling nozzle 8 to the nozzle hook 10 as the calculation signal.
9 and the consumption tax calculation means 20, and the amount signals from the tax-included amount calculation means 19 and the consumption tax calculation means 20 were introduced to the display driving means 21 via the display switching means 15.

A tax rate signal from the consumption tax storage means 23 is introduced into the consumption tax amount calculation means 20, and an amount signal from the consumption tax amount calculation means 20 is introduced into the tax-included amount calculation means 19.

The off signal from the nozzle switch 11 is sent to the motor drive means 16 as a drive stop signal, to the display switching means 15 as a switching signal, and to a timer 24 for setting the time (for example, 20 seconds) for displaying tax data after refueling is completed as a setting signal. A switching signal outputted from the timer 24 after a set time was introduced into the display switching means 15.

Further, an output signal from a campaign record tt means 26 storing campaign information such as tire discounts and battery replacements is introduced into the display switching means 15.

Furthermore, there is a display selection switch 25 for selecting whether to display only the refueling amount or the refueling amount, refueling amount, and unit price as refueling data during refueling, and after the display of refueling data and tax data is finished, campaign information is displayed. A display return switch 27 for displaying the refueling data again when the vehicle is in use is provided, for example, on the side of the housing 2, and this display selection switch 25
The display switching means 1 outputs the output signal from the display return switch 27.
It was introduced in 5.

Next, usage and operation will be explained with reference to the flowchart of FIG. 4.

When the refueling device is not in use and refueling is being performed, the display switching means 15 transmits a campaign display signal from the campaign storage means 26 to the display driving means 21,
For example, characters indicating campaign information such as ``Cheap tires, battery replacement'' are displayed.

When there is a sufficient amount of oil to be refueled and the refueling nozzle 8 is removed from the nozzle hook lO in order to refuel, the nozzle switch 11 is activated in conjunction with this.
This on signal enters the motor drive means 16, turning on the refueling motor 4 and making it possible to refuel, and this on signal serves as a reset signal to the refueling amount counting means 17, refueling amount calculating means 18, The tax-included amount calculation means 19 and consumption tax amount calculation means 20 are entered, and these are returned to zero, and the display 12 is switched from campaign display to refueling data display (step entrance).

Then, when the display selection switch 25 is set to display only the amount of refueling and the switching signal is input to the display switching means 15 (Step C), the display switching means 15 changes the display 12 to the refueling amount display type. If only the fuel amount is displayed on the central display section 12b (Step 2), and if it is set to display not only the fuel amount but also the fuel amount and unit price (Step C), the left display section 12a will be displayed as a money display type. The amount of refueling is displayed on , the amount of refueling is displayed on the center display section 12b, and the unit price is displayed on the right display section 12c (Step E).

When refueling is performed by inserting the refueling nozzle 8 into the refueling port of the automobile, the amount of oil pumped up from the underground oil storage tank by the refueling pump 5 is measured by the flow meter 7 and refueled as a pulse signal from the flow rate pulse transmitter 6. The amount is outputted to the amount counting means 17, counted here, and displayed on the central display part 1 of the display 12 as the amount of refueling.
2b - In this case, if the refueling amount display type is used to display only the refueling amount, a number indicating the refueling amount will be displayed on the central display section 12b as shown in FIG. 5, for example '39 + 7.
Only 0 J is displayed (to step).

On the other hand, in the case of a monetary display type that displays not only the amount of refueling but also the amount of refueling and the unit price, the count signal from the refueling amount counting means 17 is input to the refueling amount calculation means 18, where it is input from the unit price storage means 22. Based on the unit price (for example, 125 yen), the refueling amount (for example, 4,963 yen) is displayed on the left display section 12a as shown in FIG.

At the same time, the number r125 is displayed as the unit price on the right display section 12c based on the unit price signal from the unit price storage means 22, and the number r39.70J indicating the amount of oil to be supplied is displayed on the center display section 12b in the same way as in the case of the oil amount display type. be done (to step)
.

During refueling as described above, refueling data such as the amount of refueling, amount of refueling, and unit price are displayed on the display 12. When refueling is finished and the refueling nozzle 8 is returned to the nozzle hook 10, the nozzle The switch 11 is turned off (Step 1), and this OFF signal is output to the motor drive means 16 to stop the oil supply motor 4 and oil supply pump 5 (Step 1).

At the same time, this off signal is output as a calculation signal to the tax-included amount calculation means 19 and the consumption tax amount calculation means 20, and is further output to the display switching means 15 as a display switching instruction signal, and is also output to the timer 24 to activate the timer 24. Let it start.

The consumption tax amount calculating means 20 receives the tax rate signal from the consumption tax rate storage means 23 and the amount signal from the refueling amount calculating means 18, and calculates the refueling amount (for example, 4963 yen) and the consumption tax rate (
For example, 3%), the consumption tax amount (for example, 149 yen) is calculated and output to the display switching means 15. In addition, the tax-included amount calculating means 19 calculates the refueling amount (496
3 yen) and the consumption tax amount (149 yen) to calculate the tax-inclusive refueling amount (5112 yen) and output it to the display switching means 15.

The display switching means 15 receives an off signal from the nozzle switch 11 and outputs a tax data signal after refueling to the display driving means 21 in place of the refueling data signal such as the amount of refueling described above. As a result, for example, as shown in Figure 7, the message "Thank you, the current amount of refueling is 39.70f.
The unit price is 125 yen/liter, the amount is 4,963 yen, the consumption tax is 149 yen, and the total is 5,112 yen.'' (Stella App).

As an example, such scrolling display is repeated twice,
While displaying the tax data, scrolling is stopped for about 5 seconds at the location where "rTOTAL 5112 yen" appears in the center. This scroll-time stop provides enough time to read the tax-included refueling amount, which is an important item in the tax data display.

When, for example, 20 seconds, which is preset in the timer 24 as the time required for two scroll displays, has elapsed (Step 1), the display switching means 15 transmits a campaign display signal instead of displaying tax data, and the display 12 displays a campaign display signal. Information is displayed (stellar pull).

If you want to redisplay the refueling data on the display 12 in order to reconfirm the refueling data such as the amount of refueling and the amount of refueling while the campaign is being displayed as switched in the above manner,
If you press the display return switch 27, the display return switch 2
The display switching means 15 is actuated by the output from 7, and the refueling data is displayed on the display 12 again in place of the campaign display.

In the above-described embodiment, the display 12 displays the refueling amount,
Although the display section for the amount of oil to be supplied and the unit price are formed in a line, the display section is not limited to this, and as another example, as shown in FIG. 8, the display section may be formed in two stages, and the upper display section 28a It is also possible to use a display device 28 in which the lower display section 28b is used as a display section for the refueling amount, and the lower display section 28b is used as a display section for the refueling amount and unit price.

In this case, if tax data is to be displayed instead of refueling data, either the upper or lower display sections 28a, 28b may be used.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As described above, the refueling device of the present invention can display not only refueling data such as refueling amount and refueling amount, but also tax data such as consumption tax amount and tax-included refueling amount using one display. Since the tax data is displayed after it is erased after the refueling data is displayed, a large number of numerical items are not displayed at the same time, and even in the case of a dot-type display, the display is easy to read and there is no risk of misreading.

In addition, the tax data is displayed immediately after the refueling data is displayed, and is displayed by scrolling, so there is no need to worry about missing something or calling attention to it.Furthermore, the display itself can be used with the one already installed in the refueling system. In particular, there is no need to increase the size and there is no risk of high costs.
