Description

Description: TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a gas station for installing an oil supply device for supplying gasoline to an automobile or the like.

[Conventional technology]

Among the refueling equipment installed at the gas station, there is one that installs a refueling machine on the island installed on the surface of the refueling station site as a fixed type above the ground. Refueling position is displayed at the same time as protection.

By the way, conventionally, such a ground-fixed type oil dispenser stores an oil supply mechanism such as an oil supply pump connected to an oil supply pipe, an oil supply motor, and a flow meter in a relatively large box-shaped oil supply case. When a car or the like comes into contact with the machine case, not only the refueling machine case or the car may be damaged, but also the refueling machine in the case may be destroyed to cause a fire or the like.

Therefore, conventionally, the width of the island has been widened and the height thereof has been increased so that the vehicle cannot run over the vehicle so that the vehicle does not come into contact with the refueling machine case.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] In such a gas station, the site is narrowed by the island, and the direction in which a vehicle enters and leaves the gas station is regulated by the island. When a gas station that calls for refueling is congested, cars are often connected to each other and traveling is not smoothly performed.

The object of the present invention is to eliminate the inconvenience of the conventional example, to reduce the area of the site occupied by the island as much as possible, to make the running of the vehicle smooth at the time of congestion of the gas station, and also to damage the fueling machine and the vehicle. Not to provide a gas station.

[Means for solving problems]

In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention installs an elongated island having a low height so that an automobile can run over the site, and an automobile can pass through a coil spring formed above the island in a U-shape. An oil supply hose having an oil supply nozzle at the tip is inserted upright into the coil spring to elastically support it, and the oil supply mechanism is housed in a pump chamber juxtaposed in a building on the site. The gist is that the mechanism and the fuel supply hose are connected.

[Action]

According to the present invention, since the island is elongated, the refueling area becomes wider, and the height of the island is set to a height at which the vehicle can be run over, so that, for example, during congestion when many cars drop by at the gas station, You can run freely on the island and the flow of cars becomes smooth.

At this time, since there is only the refueling hose that is elastically erected and supported by the holding body on the island, the car is unlikely to come into contact with the refueling hose, and even if it contacts the car, Also, there is little risk of damage to both refueling hoses.

〔Example〕

 Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an embodiment of a filling station of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is an explanatory view showing a filling device installed in the filling station of the present invention.
First, the overall structure of the gas station will be explained. As is well known, a building 2 such as an office is installed in the site 1 of the gas station, a canopy 3 is provided above the site, and the amount of oil supplied to the wall of the building 2 is easy to see. A display meter 4 is provided.

In the figure, reference numeral 5 denotes a pump chamber adjacent to the building 2, and an oil supply pipe 6 is started up from an underground tank (not shown) as an oil supply mechanism in the pump chamber 5, and an oil supply pump 7 and a flow rate pulse transmitter 8 are installed therein. The connected flowmeters 9 were sequentially arranged.

Note that reference numeral 10 in the figure indicates a refueling data input / output device (POS) installed in the building 2.

In the gas station having such a structure, in the present invention, an elongated strip-shaped island 11 is installed in the site 1 so as to be a guide for traveling of the automobile and has a low height so that the automobile can ride over and travel freely. An oil supply hose 12 in which the oil supply pipe 6 is connected to the island 11 is vertically erected and supported by a holder 13.

As the holding body 13, a coil spring 13a whose upper end is bent in a U-shape is erected vertically upward from above the island 11, and an oil supply hose 12 is inserted into the coil spring 13a to elastically bend the coil spring 13a. Hold and attach the oil supply nozzle 16 to the tip.

In this way, there is an interval at which a car can pass through a plurality of (two in the illustrated example) refueling hoses 12 from the elongated and low-height islands 11 by the holding body 13, for example, at an interval of 3 to 4 m and elastically. By erection, the car entering the filling station knows the refueling position due to the existence of the island 11, and the car running inside the filling station can also ride over the island 11 and freely travel between the refueling hoses 12, 12. Therefore, for example, when the refueling car is crowded, even if the car being refueled is stopped in front of the car that has been refueled, the car that has finished refueling will cross over the island 11 and refuel hose 12,12. You can leave the car first by driving in between, and the flow of cars will be smooth.

When traveling on the island 11, the thin refueling hose 12 is only erected on the island 11, so there is little possibility that the car will come into contact with the refueling hose 12, and even if the car comes in contact with the refueling hose 12, Since the hose 12 is elastically supported, the impact force is absorbed by this elasticity, so that the refueling hose 12 and the automobile are less likely to be damaged.

Further, since the oil supply hose 12 is only supported by the coil spring 13a, the oil supply hose 12 can be freely bent in any direction to the oil supply areas formed both in front of and behind the island 11, and can be used in both oil supply areas.

As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the island 11 may be curved depending on the shape of the site 1 of the gas station and the entry / exit running line of the vehicle.

〔The invention's effect〕

As described above, the gas station of the present invention can effectively utilize the site of the gas station by providing a long and narrow island, and by lowering the island, the vehicle can freely travel over the Irrad, so that The flow of water can be made smoother and congestion in the gas station can be relieved, and because of this, there is no risk of damaging the automobile or the gas hose, and it is safe.
