Description

Lubrication device

The present invention relates to a fueling device, and more particularly, to a fueling device that can be suitably used for fueling a motorcycle.

Refueling stations visit not only motor vehicles but also motorcycles. However, when refueling a motorcycle with a refueling device installed at a refueling station, it is difficult to adjust the discharge amount while the refueling lever is held, so fuel oil overflows from the fuel tank refueling port when refueling. It is difficult to refuel.

Therefore, the applicant receives a motorcycle refueling permission signal from the motorcycle refueling permission switch, and makes it possible to refuel with a reduced discharge amount, so that even if a customer who is unfamiliar with refueling himself / herself refuels, the oil overflows. There has been proposed an oil supply device that can smoothly supply oil to a motorcycle (see Patent Document 1).

Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 10-167399

Although the invention described in Patent Document 1 is effective, setting and control for reducing the amount of oil supply is complicated, and there is a possibility that the apparatus becomes expensive.

According to the present invention, it is possible to perform the refueling setting for controlling the refueling mechanism with a simple operation by simply switching the switch means.

In the fueling apparatus, at least one of the plurality of switch means can perform a fueling setting so that a predetermined amount or a predetermined amount corresponding to a predetermined amount of money is supplied by the fueling mechanism. Thereby, not only when the fuel tank of a motorcycle is filled up, but also when a small amount of fuel is supplied, it is possible to respond quickly.

Also, a nozzle hook that holds the fuel nozzle, and maintains an OFF state when the fuel nozzle is held on the nozzle hook, and maintains an ON state when the fuel nozzle is removed from the nozzle hook. When the nozzle switch is turned on and any one of the plurality of switch means is turned ON after the oil supply mechanism is supplied with the nozzle switch, the oil supply mechanism can supply the oil again. . As a result, refueling can be performed continuously only by switching the switch means without returning the oiling nozzle to the nozzle hook, so that the operation and time for returning the oil nozzle to the nozzle hook during continuous oiling can be saved. , Leading to relief of congestion at gas stations.

Furthermore, the oil setting data by the plurality of switch means can be displayed on the information display unit, and the amount of oil or the predetermined amount for preset oil can be easily confirmed.

When any one of the plurality of switch means is turned on, the built-in lamp corresponding to the turned-on switch means can be turned on. It is possible to easily confirm a predetermined amount for refueling. Thereby, fraud such as refueling less than the amount received by the refueler from the customer can be prevented.

During lubrication, the flow rate pulse signal from the flow rate pulse transmitter of the flow meter 17 is counted by the counting means 9a, and the amount of lubrication is displayed on the display 10a based on the count value. As shown in FIG. 3, the first valve 15 is opened to increase the flow rate of the fuel oil until a certain time has elapsed (or until a certain amount of fuel is supplied) after the fuel pump 22 is driven, and then the first valve is increased. By closing 15 and opening only the second valve 16 to reduce the flow rate of the fuel oil, the fuel oil is prevented from overflowing from the fuel filler port of a fuel tank such as a motorcycle.

Together with the above operation, the count value by the counting means 9a is transmitted to the set amount determining means 9j, and it is determined whether or not the set amount determining means 9j has reached the set amount (the amount of oil supplied for 500 yen). When the set amount determining means 9j determines that the set amount has been reached, the second valve 16 is closed by the valve drive means 9g, and the operation of the oil supply pump 22 is stopped by the pump drive means 9f.

On the other hand, when the preset switch 6B is pressed, the status lamp 10b corresponding to the preset switch 6B is lit by the status lamp driving means 9e, and the set amount (the amount of oil for 300 yen) is set by the set amount judging means 9j. Only the point of determining whether or not the above has been reached is different from the above operation, and the other operations are the same.

When the free fuel switch 7 is pressed, the status lamp driving means 9e turns on the status lamp 10b corresponding to the free fuel switch 7, and the fuel supply is continued until the free fuel switch 7 is pressed again. Only the operation is different from the above operation, and other operations are the same.

When refueling by the preset switch 6 or the free refueling switch 7, the display 10 a of the information display unit 10 indicates a predetermined amount for preset refueling, a refueling amount according to the amount of money, a unit price of fuel oil, and the like. The status lamp 10b for recognizing the state of the preset switch 6 or the free refueling switch 7, the nozzle switch 20, and the replacement of the consumables, which are displayed in numbers, is turned on.

After completion of refueling, refueling can be resumed by pressing the preset switch 6 or the free refueling switch 7 again without returning the refueling nozzle to the nozzle hook 19. When the oiler leaves from the vicinity of the fueling device 1, the fueling device 1 enters the power saving mode again after a predetermined time has elapsed.

In an emergency, when the emergency stop switch 8 is pressed, a stop signal is transmitted from the emergency stop switch 8 to the pump driving means 9f and the valve driving means 9g, and the pump driving means 9f stops the operation of the oil supply pump 22 to drive the valve. The first valve 15 or the second valve 16 is closed by the means 9g to stop the refueling operation.

Further, for example, when the free fuel switch 7 is being pressed to supply fuel, if the count value by the counting means 9a exceeds a predetermined value, the fuel oil is blown from the alarm 14 by the alarm driving means 9i. Speak out and be alerted.

As described above, according to the present embodiment, the refueling setting for controlling the refueling mechanism can be performed with a simple operation by simply pressing the preset switch 6 or the free refueling switch 7.

Further, the provision of the preset switch 6 makes it possible not only to fill a fuel tank of a motorcycle or the like to a full tank but also to easily supply a small amount of fuel. In addition, since a predetermined amount corresponding to a predetermined amount for automatic refueling can be automatically refueled, refueling can be performed quickly and smoothly.

Furthermore, since it is possible to continuously perform the refueling by simply pressing the preset switch 6 or the free refueling switch 7 without returning the refueling nozzle to the nozzle hook 19, an operation and time for returning the refueling nozzle to the nozzle hook during the continuous refueling. Can be saved, leading to relief of congestion at gas stations.

In addition, by displaying the oil setting data by the preset switch 6 or the free oil switch 7 on the information display unit 10, the oil setting data can be easily confirmed, and either the preset switch 6 or the free oil switch 7 is By turning on the built-in lamp 11 corresponding to the switch that has been turned on when the switch is turned on, not only the information display unit 10 but also the built-in lamp 11 supplies the amount of oil, a predetermined amount for preset fueling, etc. Can be easily confirmed, and fraud such as refueling less than the amount received by the refueler from the customer can be prevented.
