Description

E. L. FOX. JR
FLUID FUEL DISPENSER Filed May 11, 1928- Patented Oct. 1, 1929 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE FLUID-FUEL DISPENSER Application filed May 11, 1928.
The principal object of the present invention is to provide a device for storing and dispensing gasoline which while storing the gasoline under ground will be self-contained and supported without the employment of concrete or other special foundation for the pump thereby providing an inexpensive yet eflicient device.
Generally stated, the invention comprises a metal storage tank adapted to be buried in the ground and having a hollow column secured to it and extending through and above the ground, and a pump mounted on the column and having its intake pipe arranged through the same and through the wall of the tank.
The invention also comprises the improvements to be presently described and finally claimed.
In the following description reference will be made to the accompanying drawing forming part hereof and in which Figure 1 is a view, partly in section, of a storage and dispensing device embodying features of the invention, and
Fig. 2 is a view drawn to an enlarged scale and illustrating features of the invention.
In the drawing 1 is a cylindrical tank of considerable capacity buried in the ground and arranged horizontally.
2 is a column shown as hollow and it is bolted to the curved wall 3 of the tank and extends upward through the ground a above the level thereof to a height appropriate for supporting the pump 4 having an intake pipe 5 which extends through the column and through the curved Wall 3 of the tank into the interior thereof.
As shown there is a cap 6 at the top of the column and to it the base flange of the pump 4 is secured. The cap 6 by means of the set screw 7 can be turned on the top of the column 2 and secured to place in any position that may be desirable for convenience in the operation of the pump 4. Evidently the structure is self-contained in that it requires no concrete or other foundation for supporting the pump in respect to the ground and in this way there is provided an inexpensive yet eflicient device.
Serial No. 276,926.
It will be obvious to those skilled in the art to which my invention relates that modiiications may be made in details of construe tion and arrangement and matters of mere form without departing from the spirit of the invention which is not limited to such matters or otherwise than the prior art and the appended claims may require.
I claim:
1. A fuel storage and dispensing device comprising a cylindrical metal storage tank adapted to be buried horizontally in the ground, a hollow column secured to the curved wall of the tank and adapted to extend through and above the ground, and a pump mounted on and located above the upper end of the column and having its intake pipe arranged through the same and through and in contact with the curved wall of the tank.
2. A fuel storage and dispensing device comprising a tank adapted to be buried in the ground, a column attached to the outside wall of the tank and extending upward through and above the ground, a cap mounted for turnable adjustment on the top of the column, and a pump mounted on and located above the cap and having its intake pipe arranged through and fitted with the column and through the wall of the tank.
