Description
A CONTROL DEVICE FOR A PUMP STATION AS WELL AS A METHOD OF USING SAME
The present invention relates to a control device for a pump station as well as a method of using same. More particularly, it relates to a control device for a pump station for the transfer of fuel from a fuel storage means connected to the pump to a fuel tank which is mobile relative to the pump, the control device being connected to a detector which is arranged to sense what type of fuel is in the fuel tank, or be- ing connected to a detector for detecting a code connected to the fuel tank for the type of fuel for which the fuel tank is intended, and which is arranged to produce, on comparing data given in advance with the sensed fuel or the detected code, a signal to the control device of the pump station, so that the pump station may be activated or deactivated for transferring fuel from the fuel storage means in question to the fuel tank.
The object of the invention is to provide reduced likelihood of the wrong fuel being filled into a mobile fuel tank.
By a pump station is meant herein a device for pumping engine fuel from a fuel storage means into a fuel tank, including operating devices, counters and a hose with a so-called fuel dispenser.
By a fuel storage means is meant herein a local storage con-
tainer, such as a buried tank which may, in some cases, hold several thousand litres. The fuel storage means is arranged to be replenished whenever required.
By a mobile fuel tank is meant herein the fuel tank of a ve- hide or boat, or a fuel can.
Today the two most common main sorts of fuel for internal- combustion engines in, for example, vehicles and smaller boats are diesel fuel and petrol. The refilling of fuel is normally done at petrol stations or at so-called marinas.
At such petrol stations or marinas it is normal to place pump stations for diesel and petrol side by side, and in some cases one pump station may be provided with fuel dispensers with respective conduits between the fuel dispensers and the pump station, for both diesel and petrol of different grades.
It is connected with risk that the wrong fuel is filled into a fuel tank of, for example, a vehicle. The wrong fuel may result in damage to the internal-combustion engine, among other things. This may in turn entail great repair costs, in particular if petrol is supplied to a diesel engine.
To reduce the risk of the wrong fuel being supplied to an internal-combustion engine, it is known to provide visual coding on a portion of the fuel dispenser, for example one colour coding for petrol and another colour coding for diesel . This measure has only a limited effect as the user must know what the colour coding means .
It is also known to provide a fuel dispenser for diesel with a larger nozzle than the nozzle of a petrol pump.
Corresponding dimensional differences are found in a portion of the fuel filler pipe in most modern vehicles. This means
that it is not normally possible to insert a pistol nozzle for diesel into the fuel filler pipe of a modern car with a petrol engine .
However, providing the pistol nozzle with different dimen- sions will not prevent petrol from being filled into a fuel tank for a diesel engine. Neither will it prevent filling the wrong fuel into, for example, fuel cans which are provided with a filler opening which is arranged to receive a pistol nozzle from both a diesel pump and a petrol pump.
The invention has for its object to remedy or reduce at least one of the drawbacks of the prior art.
The object is achieved through features which are specified in the description below and in the claims that follow.
In one aspect of the present invention there is provided a control device for a pump station for the transfer of fuel from a fuel storage means connected to the pump to a fuel tank which is mobile relative to the pump, the control device being provided with a detector which is arranged to sense what type of fuel is in the fuel tank, or being provided with a detector for detecting a code connected to the fuel tank for the type of fuel for which the tank is intended, and which is arranged to produce, on comparing data given in advance with the sensed fuel or the detected code, a signal to the control device of the fuel pump, so that the pump station may be activated or deactivated for transferring fuel from the fuel storage means in question to the fuel tank.
Further features are specified in claims 2-"^
In a second aspect of the present invention there is provided a method of controlling a pump station for the transfer of fuel from a fuel storage means connected to the pump station
to a fuel container which is mobile relative to the pump station, the method including the steps of: arranging a detector for a control device for a pump station; sensing, by means of the detector, what type of fuel is in the fuel tank, or detecting, by means of the detector, a code connected to the fuel tank for the type of fuel for which the fuel tank is intended; comparing the detected fuel or the detected code with data given in advance; and outputting, on the basis of the comparison, a signal to the control device of the pump station which either permits of further activation of the pump station for the transfer of fuel from the fuel storage means to the fuel tank, or which prevents further use of the pump station.
In what follows is described an example of a preferred embodiment which is visualized in the accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure 1 shows a schematic view of a pump station with three fuel dispensers, one of the fuel dispensers having been placed in a fuel tank;
Figure 2 shows, on a larger scale, a detail A of figure 1, in which a fuel detector is placed in a portion of the end portion of the pistol; and
Figure 3 shows the same as figure 2, but where the pistol is provided with an alternative detector for establishing the type of fuel intended for a mobile fuel container.
In the figures the reference numeral 1 identifies a pump station which is provided with three fuel dispensers 3, 3', 3". In terms of fluid, each of the fuel dispensers 3, 3', 3" is
connected via pistol conduits 5 and a pump pipe 7 to a fuel storage means 9 which is located beneath the pump station 1.
Even though only one fuel storage means 9 is shown in figure 1, it will be understood in the present exemplary embodiment that the fuel dispensers 3, 3', 3" are connected to respective fuel storage means 9, for example one for diesel fuel and two for petrol of different grades.
In figure 1 an end portion of the fuel dispenser 3' has been inserted through an opening in a fuel tank 11, whereas the two other fuel dispensers 3, 3" are not in use and are placed in the pump station 1.
To prevent filling the wrong fuel into the fuel tank 11 or into the fuel tank of, for example, a vehicle (not shown) , each of the fuel dispensers 3, 3', 3" is provided with a de- tector 13, 15 which is arranged to perform a consistency measurement between the fuel 11' which is in or which is intended for the fuel tank 11, and the fuel which the respective fuel dispensers 3, 3', 3" may deliver.
A person skilled in the art will know that any detector 13, 15 used in connection with the present invention will need to be permitted for use in an explosive area. Thus, a detector device which is connected to an energy source must be so- called EX-certified equipment.
In figure 2 is shown a detector 13 placed on an external por- tion of the end portion or nozzle 4 of the fuel dispenser 3'. The detector 13 is arranged to analyse the fuel fluid 11' which, in the form of a liquid or gas, is already in the fuel tank 11 and to compare the analytical result with data given in advance. As a minimum the detector 13 must be able to dis- tinguish between petrol and diesel fuel.
By consistency between the analytical result and the data given in advance, the detector 13 will output an "accept signal" to a control device 17 placed in the pump station 1, and the pump station 1 may be activated for further use in a man- ner known per se.
On establishment of non-consistency between the analytical result and the data given in advance, the detector 13 may refrain from outputting a signal, alternatively output a "stop signal", which will influence the control device 17 to pre- vent the pump station 1 from transferring fuel from the fuel storage means 9 to the fuel tank 11.
In one embodiment an alarm signal will be set off by non- consistency between the analytical result and the data given in advance .
It will be understood that the data given in advance may, but do not have to, comprise data directed towards several different fluids.
If the detector 13 does not recognize the fluid which is in the fuel tank 11, it may output either an accept signal or a stop signal. In a preferred embodiment the detector will output an accept signal when no hydrocarbons are detected, as may be the case with an unused fuel can, for example.
To reduce the risk of the detector 13 being influenced by fluid remnants in the fuel dispenser 3', the detector 13 of figure 2 is placed in an external portion of the nozzle 4 of the fuel dispenser 3'.
The detector 13 is of a kind known per se and may be a so- called "sniffer".
In figure 3 is shown an alternative embodiment of the detec-
tor 13 shown in figure 2.
In figure 3 is shown a fuel dispenser 3' which is provided with a detector in the form of an optical reader 15 which is arranged to read a bar code 15' attached to a portion of the 5 fuel tank 11. For a vehicle (not shown) the bar code 15' could be attached to an area at the opening of the filler pipe of the fuel tank, for example.
In the embodiment shown in figure 3 the contents of the fuel tank 11 is not measured in any way. Instead, a code is reado for the fuel for which the fuel tank 11 is intended or designed. The result of the reading of the bar code 15' may be compared with data given in advance, and a signal is generated and transmitted to the control device 17 of the pump station 1 which either activates or deactivates the pump sta-5 tion 1 for further use .
Instead of the optical reader 15 shown, with the corresponding bar code 15', a reader based on so-called RFID technology (RFID = Radio Frequency Identification) could be used. As the RFID technology is based on radio waves instead of light, aso is the case of the optical reader 15 mentioned above, there will be relatively great freedom with respect to where on the fuel tank 11 the RFID tag 15' will be placed and where on the fuel dispenser 3' the transmitter/receiver 15 will be placed.
As the distance between the RFID tag and the corresponding5 transmitter/receiver will normally be relatively small, a so- called passive low-frequency RFID tag will be well suited.
The signal received from the RFID tag will be compared with data given in advance and a signal will be generated and transmitted to the control device 17 of the pump station 1,o which will either activate or deactivate the pump station 1
for further use .
In use the signals from the detector 13, 15 of the individual fuel dispensers 3, 3', 3" are carried, in a manner known per se, to respective parts of the control device 17 of the pump station 1.
In one embodiment the detector 13, 15 is activated by depressing the finger grip 4' of the fuel dispenser 3'. Alternatively, the detector 13, 15 can be activated by means of a separate switch (not shown) or by means of other methods of activation known per se.
Thus, the present invention provides means and a method for reducing the likelihood of the wrong fuel being filled into a mobile fuel tank.
