Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a refueling position display member installed at a refueling station where automobiles, motorcycles, etc. are refilled with gasoline.

[Conventional technology]

At a refueling station, for example, where a suspended refueling system is used where the refueling hose is suspended from a canopy, there is no need to install a fixed refueling machine on the ground, so there are no obstacles and, as a result, cars can refuel easily. You can freely run in any direction within the premises, making effective use of the premises.

However, on the other hand, when the stopping position is not clear, or when many cars enter and exit the premises at the same time, cars block each other's movement, causing confusion and reducing refueling efficiency. There is a risk.

Therefore, it is possible to clearly indicate the refueling area by marking the refueling position on the ground surface, but conventionally, the outline of the refueling position was drawn with paint, or the outline of the refueling position was drawn with paint, or a Protruding members in the form of elongated strips and the like were appropriately arranged.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

However, with these conventional methods, the display is displayed on the same plane above the ground, or if it protrudes from the ground, it is only slightly visible, making it difficult for drivers of vehicles to see. Since the display member was only illuminated from a high position by a lighting fixture, etc., the display member was not sufficiently illuminated, making it less noticeable, and the display member was unable to perform its position display function satisfactorily.

Regarding this point, there are conventional systems in which a large number of light emitters are buried as guide members for automobiles at refueling points, as seen in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 58-446.
Although it is possible to specify a refueling point, it is not possible to know even the type of oil that can be refueled at this refueling point.

For this reason, even if you can proceed smoothly to the refueling point, you may end up stopping at a refueling point with a different type of oil, and in such cases, you will need to move to another refueling point again. I couldn't say it.

The purpose of the present invention is to eliminate the disadvantages of the conventional example,
It is easy to see at a glance for drivers while driving, and it is not only highly visible at night, but also allows you to see at a glance not only the refueling position, but also the types of oil that can be refueled at that refueling position. An object of the present invention is to provide a refueling position indicating member that can be reliably stopped at a stop.

[Means for solving problems]

The oil type is indicated on both sides of the upper surface of the flat, elongated, strip-shaped body, and poles are installed near both ends of the upper part, and a light-emitting part is provided on the pole, and a light-emitting part is provided at the upper end in a direction perpendicular to the length direction of the elongated, strip-shaped body. The gist is to provide a display board with the display surface facing.

[Effect]

According to the present invention, by installing a pole upright on the top of the elongated strip-shaped main body, the location of the refueling position display member can be easily seen at a glance, and furthermore, by providing a light emitting part on this pole, the location can be clearly seen even at night. . At the same time, by looking at the display board installed on the same pole and the oil type display on the top surface of the elongated strip body, you can see the oil types that can be refueled at the relevant refueling position, so you can accurately refuel the desired oil type at the refueling point at once. Can be stopped.

〔Example〕

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

Fig. 1 is an overall perspective view of a refueling station equipped with the refueling position display member of the present invention, and Fig. 2 is a perspective view showing an embodiment of the refueling position display member.First, the overall configuration of the refueling station will be explained. As is well known, a plurality of suspended hose processing devices 4 with refueling hoses suspended from them can be attached to a canopy 3 installed above the site 1 and in front of the building 2, which can be raised and lowered freely. A refueling amount indicator 5 is provided, and the hose processing device 4 and the refueling amount indicator 5 are provided with oil type indications 6 such as "regular" and "high octane."

Reference numeral 7 in the figure indicates a refueling position display member equivalent to an island used in a fixed refueling machine, which is installed on the paved ground within the premises 1 of such a refueling station. A ball 10 is provided with an oil type display 6 on both sides of the upper surface of a wide and flat belt-shaped body 8, and a display plate 9 with a display surface oriented in a direction perpendicular to the length direction of the belt-shaped body 8 at the upper end. For example, two poles are erected near both ends, and a light emitter section is provided on this pole 10.

As a light emitting part, the pole 10 may be made of a transparent body and a light source may be embedded in the strip-shaped body 8 to guide this light to the pole 10, or a lighting device 11 may be attached in the middle of the pole 10, or further, as the case may be. It is also conceivable to use a lighting device such as a fluorescent lamp on the pole 10 itself. A dividing line is drawn in the center of the display board 9 to form two display parts 9a and 9b, and an oil type display 6 of the oil to be refueled is displayed at the refueling position formed on each display part 9a and 9b side. I will give it to you.

In order to arrange such a refueling position display member 7 within the premises 1, two hose processing devices 4 are installed on the left and right sides along the outline of the refueling position below the hose processing device 4, as shown in FIG. If they are arranged in two rows, front and rear, they are arranged in three parallel rows, two on each side, with front and rear widths approximately equal to the width of the upper hose processing device 4, and fixed with adhesive or other methods.

In this way, the refueling position display member 7 divides the refueling position for each hose processing device 4, and the type of oil supplied at the refueling position is displayed on each display section 9a, 9b facing the display plate 9. Since this display is displayed at a high eye level, the type of oil that can be refueled at the relevant refueling position can be easily identified.

In this way, the refueling position display members 7 are arranged along the refueling position to clearly indicate the refueling position, and
Since the refueling position also displays the type of oil that can be refueled, a car entering the refueling station moves forward along the refueling position display member 7 and then stops. At this time, the pole 10 protruding upward allows you to see the location of the refueling position display member 7 at a glance, making it easy to determine the direction of travel, and the pole 10 lights up even at night, so the refueling position display member 7 The whereabouts of will become clear.

Furthermore, a display board 9 attached to the upper end of the pole 10
By looking at the , you can easily determine the type of oil that can be refueled at the relevant refueling position. At this time, since the display surface of the display board 9 is oriented in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the belt-shaped main body 8, the display board 9 faces in front of the vehicle traveling along the refueling position display member 7, The oil type display is easy to read.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As described above, the refueling position display member of the present invention is highly visible and can be easily seen at a glance by the driver of a car while driving, and is also visible even at night, so there is no risk of overlooking it and the display function will not be impaired. It's something that doesn't exist.

Furthermore, since it is possible to know not only the refueling point but also the type of oil that can be refueled at the refueling point, the vehicle can be reliably stopped at the refueling point of the desired oil type at once.
