Abstract

PURPOSE:To inform the inspection result to a customer for refueling surely, correctly, and intelligibly on the site, by providing an insection result talking means for informing the inspection result vocally. CONSTITUTION:The signal corresponding to the result of inspection inputted by an inspection result inputting means 11 is transmitted to a talking means 12. Then, the inspection result is informed vocally by the talking means 12. When an inspection completion button 13 is pushed and the inspection result is announced, and the customer is absent in the vicinity, the inspection result is announced again when the returning customer pushes a re-start button 18 before a reset button 19 is pushed. When the announcement is unnecessary because of the customer absence, talking is prevented if a talking prevention button 17 is pushed before the inspection completion button 13 is pushed. In a POS 16, the inspection data is memorized together with the card data of the customer for refueling, and the inspection result data can be compared and inspected, by the printing-out of the inspection data together with the data in the past.

Conventionally, as a means of informing refueling customers of the inspection results, for example, as shown in Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 55-59044, a display device having a display section showing each inspection item is installed at or near the refueling machine. A red lamp or a blue lamp is lit for each inspection item to indicate to refueling customers whether it is abnormal or normal, or an engine analyzer can be used as a data input/output device for refueling stations, as shown in Japanese Patent Application Laid-open No. 59-72573. The data measured by the engine analyzer is printed onto recording paper using a printer installed in the gas station data input/output device.

In the method of displaying inspection results on a display by lighting a lamp, etc., the results can be known by looking at the display from the driver's seat, etc. However, depending on where the car is stopped, the display may not be visible or may only be partially visible. In addition, when the number of inspection items increases, each display section becomes smaller, making it difficult to read the results, or the entire display becomes large, making it difficult to see inside the gas station. There is a risk of interfering.
