Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable to improve working efficiency by enabling to lead a motor car to a fixed position for service even in case of making use of a suspension hose type fuel nozzle, by providing an oblong island right under the hose reel case suspended from a ceiling. CONSTITUTION:An input and output device 4 of sales data is installed within an office 2. On the one hand, fuel supply pipe 3 communicating with an underground tank is raised up along a wall and a canopy 1, and fuel pump 5 and a flow meter 6 are fixed in the midst of the fuel supply pipe 3. The fuel supply pipe 3 is led into a hose reel case 8 suspended on a support 11 from the canopy 1 and connected with a base end of fuel supply hose 9. In the above matter, an oblong island 12 whose both ends are rounded is provided on the ground right under the hose reed case 8 in the longitudinal direction of the case 8, a support 13 is provided in a upright state on the tip part of the island and an indicator 14 of aquantity of supply fuel is fixed to the tip of the support 13. With this construction, a motor car is enabled to stop at a fixed position by making the oblong island 12 into a leading target.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a filling station that supplies fuel oil such as gasoline to automobiles.

The refueling equipment used at such refueling stations can be roughly divided into those that are fixed on the ground and those that have a refueling base 1E. The latter has a refueling bow attached to it, and the latter has a refueling bow suspended from a canopy that allows the refueling bow to be pulled out.

By the way, when a Bose suspension type refueling system is installed, either no equipment is installed on the ground, or a mark is placed on the concrete floor to indicate the refueling range, and it is difficult for the vehicle to receive refueling. Drivers often cannot decide where to stop unless they wait for instructions from refueling personnel.

The purpose of the present invention is to eliminate such inconveniences of the conventional example, and to improve work efficiency by determining the flow line of vehicles and smoothly guiding vehicles entering and exiting even when using a hose-suspended refueling device. The goal is to provide a refueling station where you can

However, this objective is achieved according to the invention by providing an elongated island directly below the fueling device suspended from the ceiling.

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

FIG. 1 is an explanatory external view showing an embodiment of a gas service station of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a view taken along the line A-A in FIG. A sales data input/output device CPO3)4 is installed in the office 2. A fuel supply pipe 3 communicating with an underground tank (not shown) is set up along a wall or a canopy 1, and several fuel pumps 5 and flow meters 6 are installed in sequence along the way.

7 is a machine room that houses these oil supply pumps 5 and the like, and is installed, for example, on the side of the office 2.

The refueling pipe 3 enters the bore processing case 8 suspended from the canopy 1 by struts 11 and 11', and is connected to the base end of a refueling hose 9 wound around a bow reel. Install nozzle 10. Note that, as shown by the dotted line, the refueling hose 9 can be horizontally moved by about 1 m in the longitudinal direction of the case 8. Further, electrical wiring to the oil supply pipe 3, the motor for rotating the bow reel, etc. is arranged using the hollow interior of the support columns 11 and 11' that suspend the bow reel.

The above is a description of a refueling system with a suspended refueling hose, which is the same as that conventionally known. However, in this embodiment, the height of the hose processing case 8 is lower than the conventional one, about 2 m above the ground, and the height of the hose processing case 8 is set to about 2 m above the ground. An elongated island 12 with rounded edges is provided on the ground directly below the case 8 in the longitudinal direction of the case 8 and in the horizontal movement direction of the hose 9. A support 13 is erected at the tip of this elongated island 12 and Attach the oil supply amount indicator 14 to.

Both the Bose processing case 8 and the oil supply amount display δ114 are arranged so that they fit within the outer edge of the island 12, and the support is placed so that the position of the oil supply amount display B114 is outside the danger range shown by the dotted line in FIG. Select the height of 13.

By the way, the dangerous area is defined as the area 0.5m above the ground, Q, 5rn away from the hose treatment case 8, and within a radius of 4m from the descending point of the refueling hose 9, and if it leaves this area, it is no longer an explosion-proof structure. A display meter can be used.

At such a refueling station, when a vehicle seeking refueling enters the refueling area within the dotted line a in Figure 2, it uses the island 12 as a guide mark to drive smoothly and easily stop at a fixed location. be able to.

The refueling hose 9 is pulled out from the Bose treatment case 8, and the refueling nozzle 10 is inserted into the vehicle's refueling port to refuel.
If the nozzle 10 cannot reach the fuel filler port, it is best to move the bowse 9 horizontally before doing so.

Oil is supplied from an underground tank via a pump 5, and the amount of oil measured by a flow meter 6 is displayed on an oil amount display meter 14. When the refueling bowl 9 is stored in the bowl processing case 8 after refueling, the pump 5 is stopped and a refueling slip is issued from the PO 34.

As described above, the fueling station of the present invention takes advantage of the advantage of the refueling hose hanging type refueling system, which allows for a wider refueling area than a fixed refueling system, while also defining the flow line of vehicles using the island, thereby ensuring smooth flow. It is possible to improve work efficiency through guidance processing.

In addition, the island requires less than half the amount of +lJO compared to the case of a fixed refueling system, and the usable area of the L refueling station can be expanded by that amount. Furthermore, if a refueling indicator is installed at the island destination &i:, f section,
This allows it to be placed in a position where it can be easily seen by the driver.
