REFUELING COMPLEX FOR SERVICING AND OPERATION OF FILLING STATIONS WITH VERTICAL FIXATION OF RESERVOIR UNITS, SAID GAS STATION, REPLACEABLE RESERVOIR UNIT FOR IT Russian patent published in 2020 - IPC B60S5/02 

FIELD: devices for refilling with fuel.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to devices for fueling vehicles. Refueling complex (RC) contains tank units and filling stations included into it. Reservoir unit can be arranged in horizontal or vertical position and functionally is replaceable reservoir unit (RRU). Reservoir, which is located in the RRU vertical position above the process compartment, is made in the form of a vertical cylinder closed from above and from below, on the side and on top of the reservoir there are separate outlets of the respiratory tubes for the horizontal or vertical RRU position, with valves automatically switched when the RRU position is changed. Walls of process compartment are also cylindrical, coaxial relative to reservoir, with closed technical opening. Valves for draining slime and condensate from sections of reservoir RRU is made in the form of nozzle arranged in side or bottom part of RRU and connected to lines of drain of slime from sections of reservoir through shutoff valves. RRU is equipped with support elements, usually three, four wheel rollers, providing possibility of RRU rolling along platform. Rollers are fixed with the help of brackets for RRU along the edge of its base, and also with possibility of fixation and locking of rolls relative to RRU and/or platform of filling station. Brackets of one or two rollers can turn about vertical axis. In upper point of RRU on its axis line there arranged is element responding to hook-type load-gripping appliance of elevator of multilift system, and on side surface of RRU, parallel to its axis, guiding elements of universal subframe are fixed with dimensions corresponding to size of frame of vehicle delivering it. Outside filling station RRU can be in horizontal position with support on horizontal surface by means of guide elements of its universal subframe or in vertical position with support on rollers.

EFFECT: higher efficiency of fueling with various types of fuel.
