Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a gas station for refilling automobiles, motorcycles, etc. with garrison.

[Conventional technology]

At gas stations that use a suspended refueling system that allows the refueling hose to be hung from a canopy, there are no obstacles on the ground such as refueling machines or islands, and as a result, cars can move in all directions within the gas station premises. The vehicles can be freely driven around, allowing for effective use of the premises.

However, on the other hand, stopping points for refueling are not clearly defined, and during times when many vehicles enter and exit the premises at the same time, vehicles obstruct each other's movement, causing confusion and reducing refueling efficiency. This may lead to a decrease in

Therefore, for example, a car guiding member is placed on the ground surface,
It shows the route and guides the car.

By the way, the types of fuel handled at gas stations are gasoline and diesel oil, and gasoline is further divided into regular and high-octane, and each is handled by different refueling devices installed at different locations, and the fueling devices and display gauges are different from each other. The oil type is written on the surface of the case.

Therefore, when a car enters a refueling station to get refueled, it looks at the oil type displayed on the surface of the case of the refueling device and stops below the refueling device with the desired oil type.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

However, conventional vehicle guiding members simply form a route guide for vehicles within a gas station, so when the vehicle travels along this path, the vehicle reaches the bottom of a refueling device containing a different type of oil than the desired one. There is a risk that the flow of traffic may be disrupted in order to correct the parking position. In order to stop at a refueling point for the desired oil type, one must drive while looking directly at the refueling device where the oil type is displayed, which can be dangerous as one must look both at the ground and above. .

The purpose of the present invention is to eliminate the disadvantages of the conventional example,
It is possible to create a taxiway that safely guides cars to the refueling point of the desired oil type and allows smooth flow of cars.
An object of the present invention is to provide a refueling station that can improve refueling efficiency.

[Means for solving problems]

In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention provides a flat part formed of an elongated flat elastic member at both ends with an oil type indication attached, and a groove between the flat parts in a gas station equipped with a suspended type oil supply system. The gist of this invention is to construct a guideway for vehicles by arranging car guiding members provided with strips on a paved ground surface.

[Effect]

According to the present invention, the vehicle guiding member guides the vehicle that has entered the gas station premises to the refueling point, and at the same time, the oil type display attached thereto indicates to the driver the types of oil that can be refueled at the refueling point. , the vehicle can be smoothly guided to the refueling point of the desired type of oil. In addition, even if a car tire accidentally lands on the car guiding member, the grooves formed here will prevent it from slipping.
The impact is absorbed by the elasticity of the vehicle guiding member.

〔Example〕

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

FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an embodiment of the fueling station of the present invention.As is well known, the overall configuration of the fueling station 1 is as follows. A plurality of suspended type refueling devices with freely suspended refueling hoses are installed, and a refueling amount display meter 12 is installed at an easily visible location such as the wall of the building 3.

Car guide members 6 are arranged at appropriate intervals on the paved surface of the gas station 1 to form a guide path for automobiles.As shown in FIG.
It is made of an elastic member such as hard synthetic rubber or synthetic resin and has an elongated flat shape, and a plurality of grooves 7 are provided in the upper part along the length direction.

A display board 9 having the same width as the vehicle guiding member 6 and having a flat portion 8 on the upper surface is attached to both ends of the vehicle guide member 6, and a refueling device number 10 and a “Regular” sign are attached to the upper surface of the flat portion 8.
Write down 11 types of oil such as:

An appropriate number of vehicle guide members 6 with display boards 9 integrally attached thereto are placed on a line connecting the entrance of the filling station 1, the refueling point below the hose processing device 5, and the exit.
It is attached to the ground surface of site 2 using adhesive or the like in one row or in two rows at vehicle width intervals, either continuously or discontinuously.At this time, the oil type 11 and The installation location of the vehicle guide member 6 is determined so that the oil type of the upper refueling device matches, and the hose processing device 5 and display meter 12 are also made to correspond to the display board 9 so that the same refueling device number 10 and Draw oil type 11.

In the above-mentioned embodiment, the vehicle guide member 6 and the display board 9 were made separately and joined together at the time of installation, but the display board 9 was made integrally with the vehicle guide member 6 from the beginning. Alternatively, the vehicle guiding member 6, display board 9, hose processing device 5, and indicator 12 of the same oil type may be colored the same, and these may be colored differently for each oil type.

Next, to explain how to use it, if the car guiding member 6 and the display board 9 are arranged on the ground like this, a car entering a gas station after refueling will use the car guiding member 6 at the entrance of the gas station. At the same time as observing, read the oil type 11 displayed on the display board 9, select the car guide member 6 on which the desired oil type 11 is displayed, and follow the car guide member 6 into the premises 2. Enter the vehicle.

If the vehicle is thus guided by the vehicle guide member 6 and stopped at the refueling point, since the upper refueling device is of the desired oil type, the vehicle can stop at the refueling point of the hose processing device 5 of the desired oil type in one go.

Note that even if a tire is accidentally placed on the vehicle guiding member 6 while driving, the groove 7 is formed there, so the tire will not slip and will be safe, and the member is made of an elastic material such as rubber. Since we are using a material, the impact is small.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As described above, the fueling station of the present invention displays the oil type of the fueling device installed at the guiding destination on the vehicle guiding member that is always seen when driving within the premises. If you select a guide member and drive along it, you will always arrive at the refueling point for the desired oil type, so you will not accidentally stop at a refueling point for another oil type, and as a result, you will not have to correct the stopping position. This allows for a smoother flow of vehicles within the filling station and improves refueling efficiency.

Furthermore, since the refueling point of the desired type of oil can be found just by looking at the vehicle guiding member, there is no need to drive while looking in various directions, and driving safety can be ensured. Furthermore, even if a car tire accidentally lands on the car guiding member, the grooves formed here will prevent it from slipping, and the elasticity of the guiding member will cushion the impact, ensuring sufficient safety. can be secured.
