[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in a gas station, a plurality of types of oil, such as,
There is one that can refuel regular gasoline, high-octane gasoline and light oil with one device. This type of oil supply device includes a plurality of oil supply hoses for supplying respective oils. Such a refueling hose tends to be long so that it can be refueled easily regardless of the direction and position of the vehicle stopped in front of the refueling device.

However, when the refueling hose becomes long, the refueling hose crawls on the ground and is not only visually unpleasant, but also the hose itself is damaged or soiled, and a plurality of refueling hoses interfere with each other or are entangled with each other. However, there is a drawback in that the present applicant makes it difficult to operate.
No. 56 discloses a technique relating to an oil supply device that solves these drawbacks.

[0004]

However, in such an oil supply device (Japanese Patent Application No. 5-195256), the main body case and the upper case are integrally formed, and the upper end of the upper case is provided with the oil supply device. A screw hole for mounting the lifting hook is provided, and after installation at the gas station, the hook is removed and the rubber cover is used to cover. Therefore, the upper case also needs to be made as strong as the main body case, and it may become taller and difficult to manufacture and transport.

Therefore, the present invention makes it easy to handle the oil supply hose even when the oil supply device has a long oil supply hose.
It is also an object of the present invention to provide an oil supply device that is easy to manufacture and transport.

[0006]

In order to achieve the above object, an oil supply apparatus according to the present invention comprises an oil supply pump in a main body case,
A flowmeter and a built-in indicator are built in, the discharge pipe of the flowmeter is connected to a swivel elbow attached to the front of the main body case, and a refueling hose having a refueling nozzle at the tip is connected to the swivel elbow and From the top case that is installed between the refueling device main body with a safety pipe joint installed on the way, two columns and a retractor that are fixed to the upper part of the refueling device body by bolts, and is installed between the upper ends of the two columns And a tip of a wire pulled out from a retractor built in the top case is fixed in front of a safety pipe joint provided in the middle of the fuel supply hose.

Further, the top case is formed thin, and a retractor is horizontally installed in the top case. Further, the wire of the retractor is pulled out through a guide roller provided in the top case and through a hole formed in a protector attached to the outer surface of the top case.

[0008]

[Operation] The upper case does not apply extra force because the retractor wire is pulled when the refueling hose is pulled, and in the worst case, it is separated by the safety pipe joint even when a special pulling force is applied to the refueling hose. Therefore, it is not necessary to make it strong, and even if the main body case and the upper case are made separately, there is no problem in strength, and the upper case can be attached after the main body case is installed at the gas filling station. Further, the body case can be made short, and manufacturing and transportation are easy.

Further, by incorporating the retractor horizontally in the thinly formed top case, it is possible to make the entire device more compact than vertically. Further, since the retractor wire built in the top case is pulled out to the outside through the hole of the protector via the guide roller, the pulling out is smooth and the frame structure of the top case is not damaged.
