JPS594918Y2 - Liquid container holding device - Google Patents

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a device for holding a particular container when a liquid is being transferred from one container to another.

Generally, when refilling charcoal into another container, for example, when transferring kerosene from a kerosene transport/storage container to a stove tank, a known pump 5 as shown in FIG. After filling the pump hose with kerosene, the oil is naturally transferred using potential energy based on the difference in oil level between the two containers.

However, when kerosene is transferred using this method, if the oil levels in the kerosene storage container and the tank section become the same, natural injection will stop.

Conventionally, this was done by lifting the kerosene storage container by hand so that the oil level was higher than that of the tank.

However, it is very tedious for one person to lift the kerosene storage container by hand and stop the injection at the end of the tank transfer, and it requires a certain degree of physical strength and skill. There is a risk of spilling residual oil due to excessive force.

The present invention has been proposed to solve the above-mentioned conventional problems, and will be described in detail below based on embodiments shown in the drawings.

The liquid container holding device 1 of the present invention has a storage chamber 2 with an upward opening, and at least one push-up spring is fixedly installed at the inner bottom of the storage chamber 2.
It is configured to be supported and housed inside by a spring.

In the embodiment, an upper key point of the inner wall of the storage chamber 2 is inclined outward and a partially enlarged part 2a is formed at the opening, but this enlarged part 2a is not provided. Good too.

In addition, the strength of the push-up springs 3, 3, 4.4 fixed at the inner bottom of the storage chamber 2 is adjusted so as to gradually push up the container A according to the amount of decrease in the liquid in the container A. has been done.

Moreover, it is preferable that these springs 3 and 4 have different pressing forces.

That is, the springs 3, 3 have a somewhat colder force than the springs 4, 4, and the springs 3, 3 are placed below the partially enlarged part 2a of the opening, that is, at the lower inner bottom of the part where the inner wall is inclined. while strong spring 4
．． 4 is fixed so as to be located at the inner bottom part on the side facing the inner wall slope part.

By configuring the holding device in this way, as the amount of liquid in container A decreases and becomes lighter, container A will be pushed upward by the spring, so the height of the liquid level in container A will be above a certain level. is maintained.

Therefore, there is no possibility that the outflow of the liquid stops midway due to a drop in the liquid level when transferring the liquid, unlike in the conventional case.

Moreover, due to the different strengths of the springs 3, 3 and 4, 4, and the relationship between the slopes of the inner walls, when the liquid decreases by a predetermined amount, the container A naturally collapses and tilts as shown in Figure 2. Because of this structure, when the remaining amount in container A becomes small, the residual liquid will collect in the corner, and it is possible to transfer the liquid while storing it in the holding device until it is almost empty. can.

Therefore, when using the container A, it is only necessary to store the container A in the holding device 1 and place another container B nearby when refilling and inject the liquid from the container A into the container B using the pump 5. Regardless of the residual amount, the amount injected into the container B can be adjusted simply by operating the pump 5.

FIG. 3 shows another embodiment, in which springs 3.3,
This is an example in which a container mounting plate 6 is provided on the upper part of 4.4.

The upper portions of the springs 3, 3, 4.4 are secured to the container mounting plate 6 at predetermined positions.

That is, when the mounting plate 6 is tilted together with the container A, or when the container A is stored in the holding device, the spring 3,
If the upper part of 3, 4.4 is not fixed to the lower surface of the mounting plate 6, the point of action of the push-up blade may come off or the spunong 3, 3, 4.4
This prevents this from happening as it would bend and not work effectively.

Furthermore, by providing this container mounting plate 6, it is possible to prevent frictional damage to the container A caused by the springs 3, 3, 4.4, and to prevent dust from adhering to the springs 3, 3, 4.4. It also has the effect of preventing

As described above, according to the liquid container holding device of the present invention, when transferring liquid from a specific container to another container, it is not necessary to lift the specific container by hand as in the past, or to remove objects under the container. There is no need to place the container and adjust the height of the container, and refilling can be done simply by operating the pump, eliminating the risk of spilling liquid (especially kerosene) due to inexperience.

Furthermore, even if oil adheres to the outer wall of the storage container A, it will not leak onto the floor or the like, allowing a sanitary storage condition to be maintained.

It is of course possible to provide handles, hangers, etc. for transportation at important points on the holding device.

Claims (1)

[Scope of utility model registration request] In a holding device having a storage chamber into which a liquid container can be inserted from an upper opening, two parts having different pressing forces are attached to the inner bottom of the storage chamber.
A plurality of push-up springs are fixedly installed, a container placement plate is provided on top of the springs, and the upper key points of the inner wall of the storage chamber are inclined outward to form a partially enlarged portion at the opening. A cup spring is located at the inner bottom below the sloped inner wall, and a strong spring is located at the inner bottom on the side opposite to the sloped inner wall, and the strength of the spring is adjusted according to the amount of decrease in the liquid in the container. The liquid container holding device is adjusted so as to be pushed upward, and is provided so that when the container is pushed up to a predetermined height or more, the container collapses into the partially enlarged opening and is held in an inclined state.
