Abstract

PURPOSE: To accurately detect the liquid level in the liquid store tank of a liquid transport vehicle by providing a cylindrical sensor containing case in a vertical direction of the liquid store room, communicating the inside of a case with the inside of a tank mutually, and setting an upper limit level sensor at an upper portion in the case. CONSTITUTION: A cylindrical sensor containing case 45 extending in an vertical direction is provided approximately in the central portion of the liquid store room 12, the inside of a case 45 and the inside of a tank 12 are communicated mutually, and an upper limit level sensor 49 is set at an upper portion in the case 45. The liquid level in the liquid store room 12 can be sensed approximately in the central portion of the liquid store room 12 with little effect of the inclined posture of a car body so that feeding and stopping of liquid into the liquid store room 12 can precisely be performed based on an accurate liquid level detection result. Since the sensor 49 is set in the case 45 communicating with the inside of a liquid store room 12, even when the liquid level of the liquid store room 12 waves by the vibration which the liquid store room 12 receives from outside, the liquid level of the case 45 hardly influenced by vibration can be detected with precision.
