2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, for large-sized drums, Japanese Examined Patent Publication No. 25-25600, Japanese Examined Patent Publication No. 54-42502,
A large number of reversing devices have been proposed as shown in Japanese Examined Patent Publication No. 56-3224, but all of them were large-scaled due to the heavy weight of the drum.

Regarding reversing a small drum,
Although not shown, since the weight is light, the drum can was manually inverted on the work table without using an inversion device. In other words, the handle on the top of the drum can is lifted with one hand, the other hand is applied to the bottom of the drum can, and the drum can is inverted by placing it on an appropriate work table.

As shown in FIG. 4, the conventional small-sized drum can oiling apparatus B has a male screw 7 and a lock nut 8 which are screwed into the oil inlet of the drum can.
The stop valve 10 is connected to the male screw 7, and an appropriate tube (not shown) is attached to the stop valve 10.

FIG. 5 is a vertical sectional side view of an oil supply device for an automobile or the like disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 59-79696. The oil supply device 21 has an intermediate portion formed in a bellows shape. An oil supply hose 23 which is formed and has a circular oil supply hose holding plate 22 at its lower end, an insertion hole 24a for allowing the oil supply hose 23 to pass therethrough, and a tongue-shaped fitting piece 24b provided on the side wall. 24 and an air hose 25 that is appropriately fixed to the inner wall surface of the oil supply hose 23. By supplying air from the air hose 25 when oil is supplied, the oil can be smoothly supplied. There is.

FIG. 6 shows an overall view of a part of the oil dispensing device disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 63-26600 in a vertical section. This oil dispensing device is an oil can 31. Main passage 34 connecting the connection cab 31, the opening / closing valve 32, and the nozzle 33, which are connected to the opening 30a of the container in a liquid state, and the branch branched from the main passage 34 between the connection cab 31 and the opening / closing valve 32. A passage 35, a long transparent pipe 37 having a gauge 36 attached to the end of the branch passage attached thereto, and a holding frame 38 for holding the opening 31a of the oil pipe 31 in a downward direction. Is
The remaining amount of oil can be visually confirmed.
In the figure, 39 is an oil cup.

[0007]

However, since a small drum reversing device is not found at all, there is a problem that the reversing work of the drum can is performed manually, but the work is difficult. In addition, as shown in the oil supply device for automobiles of FIG. 5, in a small oil can that can be held by one hand, there is an idea that air is supplied into the oil can at the time of refueling. Since it is difficult to apply to a small drum such as the present invention, the conventional oil supply device A shown in FIG. 4 must be used, and in order to smoothly transfer the oil to the oil jug, the bottom of the drum can (inverted) is used. Although an air hole is opened in the upper part with an appropriate punch in the state, there is a risk that not only metal may enter but also dust inside the factory may enter.

Further, as shown in the oil dispensing device of FIG. 6, there is a device in which a level gauge is attached so that the remaining amount of oil can be confirmed, but there is no means for feeding air into the oil can. There was a problem that refueling could not be done smoothly.

[0009]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and provides a reversing device for a drum can which can be handled very easily by human power, and has an extremely simple structure. In addition, the present invention provides an oil supply device for a drum, which has two functions of reliably confirming the remaining amount of oil and smoothly supplying oil.

That is, the first aspect of the present invention is to provide a plurality of clamp devices 2 for holding the upper edge of the drum can on the cylindrical side portion of the drum can mounting base 1 which is formed by cutting open the front half of the cylindrical portion having the bottom. A horizontal shaft 4 is fixed to a rear portion of the drum can mounting table 1 through an appropriate bracket 3, and the horizontal shaft 4 of the mounting table is rotatably attached to a frame of a reversing device 5 made of an angle member or the like. This is a device for reversing a drum can.

A second aspect of the present invention is a drum can reversing device according to claim 1, wherein a reversing grip 6 is fixed to the back surface of the bottom of the drum can mounting table 1. .

The third aspect of the present invention is to provide a male screw 7 and a lock nut 8 which are screwed into the oil supply port of the drum, a socket 9 which is connected to the male screw 7, and a stop valve 10 which is connected to the socket 9. A level gauge 12 connected to the socket 9 through a connecting pipe 11, one end of which is guided into the oil can through the socket 9 and the other end of which is opened to the outside of the oil can, An oil supply device for a drum can, which is configured by a U-shaped air bleeder tube 14 provided with an air bleeder valve 13.
