Description

Beschreibung Datenanzeigevorrichtung für Treibstoff-Zapfstellen mit Za f istole.Description Data display device for fuel dispensers with Za f istole.

Bei den bisher gebräuchlichen Treibstoffzapfstellen erfolgt die ausgegebene Mengenangabe, die zugehörige Preisangabe und auch die Angabe des Einheitspreises pro Liter stets über Anzeigevorrichtungen, die in der Zapfsäule eingebaut sind. Oftmals sind auch noch in einer zentralen Kasse entsprechende Anzeigevorrichtungen vorgesehen. Für den Tankwart ist es bei diesen Anzeigevorrichtungen schwer, die jeweilige Mengenausgabe genau zu überwachen, vor allem das zu betankende Fahrzeug zwischen Zapfsäule und Tankwart abgestellt ist so die Ziffernanzeige an der Zapfsäule nur schwer ablesbar ist. At the fuel pumps that have been used up to now, the Quantity, the associated price and also the specification of the unit price per liter always via display devices built into the dispenser. Often there are also appropriate display devices in a central cash register intended. For the gas station attendant it is difficult with these display devices, the to closely monitor the respective quantity output, especially the vehicle to be refueled The digital display on the pump is positioned between the pump and the gas station attendant is difficult to read.

Um diesen Nachteil zu vermeiden, wird errindungsgemäss vorgeschlagen, die Ziffernanzeigevorrichtung unmittelbar in die Zapfpistole der Zapfstelle einzubauen. In order to avoid this disadvantage, it is proposed according to the invention that to install the numeric display device directly in the nozzle of the tap.

Auf diese Weise ist es für den Tankwart möglich, die jeweilige Mengenangabe oder Preisangabe unmittelbar am Ort seiner Tätigkeit nämlich an der Zapfpistole selbst abzulesen und es können so sehr genaue Mengenangaben erfolgen. Gleichzeitig kann natürlich auch wie bisher üblich parallel dazu die Ziffernanzeige an der Zapfsäule und gegebenenfalls auch in der Zentralen Kasse durchgeführt werden. Aus Sicherheitsgründen und zur Vermeidung von Beschädigungen ist es von Vorteil, die Ziffernanzeigeelemente unmittelbar in einem Block vollständig einzukapseln, der an der Zapfpistole angebracht ist. In this way it is possible for the gas station attendant to specify the respective quantity or price quotation directly at the place of his activity, namely at the fuel nozzle can be read off by yourself and very precise quantities can be given. Simultaneously can of course also be used in parallel, as was previously the case the numeric display can be carried out at the pump and, if necessary, also in the central cash register. For safety reasons and to avoid damage, it is advantageous to to completely encapsulate the numeric display elements directly in a block, which is attached to the nozzle.

Die Erfindung wird im folgenden anhand schematischer Zeichnungen an einem Ausführungsbeispiel näher erläutert. The invention is described below with reference to schematic drawings explained in more detail using an exemplary embodiment.

Fig. 1 zeigt eine übliche Tankanlage mit einer Zapfstelle; Fig. 2 zeigt den erfindungsgemässen Aufbau der Anzeigevorrichtung unmittelbar in die Zapfpistole dieser Zapfsäule nach Fig. 1.Fig. 1 shows a conventional tank system with a filling point; Fig. 2 shows the structure according to the invention of the display device directly into the fuel nozzle this gas pump according to FIG. 1.

Fig. 1 zeigt eine übliche Benzin-Tankstellenanlage mit mehreren gleichartigen Zapfsäulen 23, von denen aus Gründen der Übersichtlichkeit nur eine dargestellt ist. Sämtliche Zapfsäulen sind über eine gemeinsame Datenübertragungsleitung 24 an eine Zentrale 25 angeschlossen, wo sich ein Kassierer befindet, der am Ende jedes Tankvorganges die Bezahlung entgegennimmt. An der Zapfsäule 23 ist eine Anzeigevorrichtung 26 montiert, die eine 13-stellige Ziffernanzeige ermöglicht. Jede dieser Ziffern wird durch ein bekanntes Siebensegment-Anzeigeelement gebildet. Zusätzlich zu dieser Anzeigevorrichtung an der Zapfsäule ist erfindungsgemäss noch eine entsprechende Anzeigevorrichtung 27 am Handgriff der Zapfpistole vorgesehen. Auch hier werden wieder übliche Siebensegment-Ziffernanzeigeelemente, vorzugsweise entsprechende Festkörperelemente, verwendet. Die Ziffernanzeige wird auch in der Zentrale 25 dupliziert, wo ebenfalls eine entsprechend 13-stellige Anzeige entsprechend dem jeweiligen Zapfvorgang erfolgt. Diese Information wird über die gemeinsame Datenüber-tragungsleAtung 24 im Zeitmultiplexbetrieb seriell-binär durch entsprechende Digitalsignale übermittelt, Jede Zapfsäule wird nacheinander durch die Zentrale abgefragt und liefert die geforderten Informationen als Ergebnis der Abfrage. Diese seriellen Informationen werden in der Zentrale in die geforderte Anzeige für die Ziffernanzeigeelemente verarbeitet. Fig. 1 shows a conventional gasoline filling station system with several similar Gas pumps 23, of which only one is shown for the sake of clarity is. All fuel pumps are via a common data transmission line 24 connected to a center 25, where a cashier is located at the end of each Accepts the payment during the refueling process. At the pump 23 is a display device 26, which enables a 13-digit numeric display. Any of these digits is formed by a well-known seven-segment display element. In addition to this According to the invention, the display device on the fuel pump is also a corresponding one Display device 27 is provided on the handle of the fuel nozzle. Will be here too again the usual seven-segment numerical display elements, preferably corresponding ones Solid elements, used. The numeric display is also duplicated in the control center 25, where also a corresponding 13-digit display corresponding to the respective dispensing process he follows. This information is transmitted via the common data transmission line 24 in time-division multiplexed serial-binary transmission by appropriate digital signals, Each fuel pump is queried one after the other by the control center and delivers the required ones Information as a result of the Query. This serial information are in the control center in the required display for the numeric display elements processed.

Gemäss Fig. 2 umfasst die Zapfpistole der Zapfsäule 23 einen Handgriff, an dem die Anzeigevorrichtung 27 aufgebaut aus siebensegmentigen Anzeigeelementen montiert ist. According to FIG. 2, the fuel nozzle of the fuel dispenser 23 comprises a handle, on which the display device 27 is constructed from seven-segment display elements is mounted.

Die Anzeigevorrichtung ist vollständig in einem durchsichtigen Expoxidharzblock eingekapselt. Die Anzeigevorrichtung 27 zeigt die laufend gezapfte Treibstoffmenge, den laufenden Gesamtbetrag. und den Preis je Mengeneinheit des gewählten Treibstoffes an. In dem Block ist ein nicht gezeichneter Kühlkörper eingebaut, durch den die Wärme abgeführt wird, welche durch die siebensegmentigen Ziffernanzeigeelemente erzeugt wird. Die für die Anzeige und für eine eventuelle Überwachung erforderlichen fünf Leitungen sind in einem nicht dargestellten Kabel untergebracht, das längs des Zapfschlauches geführt ist. Über eine zusätzlich eingebaute Überwachungseinrichtung kann bei einem Fehler in einem der Anzeigeelemente festgestellt beispielsweise durch einen entsprechenden Stromdetektor in den Steuerleitungen zu den einzelnen Segmenten der Anzeigeelemente eine permanente 8 angezeigt werden. /PatentansprücheThe display device is entirely in a clear epoxy block encapsulated. The display device 27 shows the current amount of fuel being tapped, the running total. and the price per unit of quantity of the selected fuel at. A heat sink (not shown) is installed in the block through which the Heat is dissipated, which through the seven-segment numeric display elements is produced. The ones required for the display and for any monitoring five lines are housed in a cable, not shown, the lengthways of the dispensing hose is guided. Via an additionally built-in monitoring device can, for example, be determined by an error in one of the display elements a corresponding current detector in the control lines to the individual segments a permanent 8 is displayed on the display elements. / Claims
