Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of refueling equipment technology, specifically to a fuel nozzle support structure. Background Technology

[0002] Automated refueling stations utilize refueling robots to automatically refuel traditional vehicles. During the refueling process, the robot's robotic arm retrieves a fuel nozzle from the nozzle holder, completes the refueling, and then returns the nozzle to the holder. Existing refueling robots typically have a switching mechanism at the end of their robotic arm to allow for switching between different nozzle models. To accommodate the nozzle's installation at the end of the robotic arm, a mounting structure is usually provided; to facilitate automated refueling, a drive structure, such as a nozzle wrench driver, is also typically included. These mounting and drive structures result in a large and heavy nozzle structure, making it inconvenient to store in the nozzle holder. Furthermore, the robotic arm requires precise alignment of the nozzle during retrieval and placement to complete the process, resulting in a low error tolerance. Summary of the Invention

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

They are used only for the convenience of describing the invention and for simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on the invention. Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0038] Furthermore, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0039] Example 1

[0040] This embodiment provides a fuel nozzle support structure suitable for assembly into the fuel nozzle cabinet of an automated refueling station, used to provide different types of fuel nozzles for refueling robots. For example... Figure 9 As shown, the oil gun support structure provided in this embodiment includes a support frame 52 and a storage frame 63. The support frame 52 is used to fix and install the oil gun 51 and provide support for the oil gun. The storage frame 63 can be placed in the oil gun oil and is used to position and store the support frame 52 with the oil gun.

[0041] The oil gun support structure provided in this embodiment, such as Figure 6-8 As shown, the support frame 52 has a fixing part 521, which is adapted to be fixedly installed on the oil gun 51. The oil gun 51 has an inclined main body and an oil filling pipe. The oil filling pipe is bent relative to the inclined main body, making the oil gun 51 a single bent structure. The support frame 52 can be two pieces joined together and clamped and fixed to the oil gun 51, thereby supporting the oil gun 51. The support frame 52 provided in this embodiment has a fixing part 521 and a first extension end 522. The fixing part 521 is fixed perpendicularly to the inclined main body. The first extension end 522 is bent relative to the fixing part and extends vertically. The end of the first extension end extending vertically has a positioning plate 525. Through this positioning plate 525, the oil gun can be positioned with the quick-change structure at the end of the robotic arm, realizing the switching of the oil gun. While supporting and fixing the oil gun body, the aforementioned support frame can provide a first vertical extension end for the oil gun with a curved structure. The end of the first extension end has a positioning plate. This vertical positioning and mounting structure allows the refueling robot arm to assemble the oil gun by moving the arm in a one-dimensional vertical direction when performing oil gun positioning and replacement, thereby simplifying the movement path of the robot arm, improving assembly accuracy, and increasing oil gun switching efficiency.

[0042] In the aforementioned oil gun support structure, the support frame 52 further has a second extension end 523 and a third extension end 524, which constitute the support legs of the support frame. Each support leg has a laterally extending support foot 528. The storage rack 63 has a storage seat 633 for storing the support foot. The oil gun support structure provided in this embodiment integrates structural components that enable quick-change installation and oil gun placement support in a single support frame structure, greatly improving the space utilization of the structure and reducing the overall weight of the oil gun. Its storage rack can be used to position and store the support frame, facilitating the storage of the oil gun structure in the oil gun cabinet.

[0043] In the aforementioned oil gun support structure, the support frame may further have a second extension end 523 and a third extension end 524, the second extension end 523 and the third extension end 524 constituting the support legs of the support frame; the second extension end 523 is located on the opposite side of the fixing part 521 relative to the first extension end 522; the third extension end 524 is located on the same side of the fixing part 521 relative to the first extension end 522, and extends in a direction substantially opposite to the first extension end; as shown above. Figure 8 As shown, the arrangement of the second extension end 523 and the third extension end 524 can form a "V" shaped structure with the first extension end 522 and the fixing part 521 as a whole, so as to improve the support stability of the support frame.

[0044] Furthermore, in the aforementioned oil gun support structure, the second extension end 523 and the third extension end 524 each have laterally extending support feet 528 on both sides. The base of each support foot 528 has a frustum-shaped structure, and the top of each support foot 528 has a spherical structure. This arrangement facilitates the positioning and support of the oil gun within its storage structure.

[0045] In the aforementioned oil gun support structure, the positioning disc 525 has a first positioning groove in the center. This first positioning groove can engage with the positioning structure of the quick-change structure to achieve oil gun assembly. Additionally, at least two positioning pins extending upwards along the side wall of the positioning disc are provided. The top of each positioning pin has a conical structure, which can guide the positioning during the assembly process and improve the positioning and assembly efficiency.

[0046] In the aforementioned oil gun support structure, the first extension end 521 has a second positioning groove in its middle portion that communicates with the first positioning groove. A movable member 526 is movably disposed within the first and second positioning grooves. A drive wrench 527 is hinged to the first extension end 522 and drivenly connected to the movable member 526, allowing the movable member 526 to move up and down manually. This movable member can act on the aforementioned quick-change structure to manually release the quick-change structure from locking the oil gun positioning disc 525, thus completing the manual unloading of the oil gun.

[0047] In the above-mentioned oil gun support structure, such as Figure 1-5As shown, the oil gun holder 63 includes a first frame 631, a second frame 632, and a storage base 633. The first frame 631 is located at the bottom of the oil gun holder, and the second frame 632 is located above the first frame 631. The second support 632 is connected to the first frame 631 through several first buffer members, and the storage base 633 is disposed on the second frame 632. The first buffer members can be disposed at the four corners of the first frame 631, and the storage base can be disposed at the four corners of the second frame 632, to provide stable support for the second frame and the storage base, respectively. The first buffer member is a vertical buffer member, which includes a guide post and a buffer spring sleeved on the guide post. The second frame of the oil gun holder is connected to the first frame through the first buffer member, providing vertical buffering for the oil gun's loading and unloading operations, thereby avoiding hard contact between the robotic arm, oil gun, oil gun holder, and other components during the loading and unloading process, and preventing damage to these components.

[0048] In the aforementioned oil gun support structure, four storage seats 633 are positioned at the four corners of the second frame, corresponding to each other in pairs. These storage seats 633 can be used for mounting and positioning the support legs of the oil gun. The bottom of each storage seat is connected to the second frame via at least one second buffer member. The second buffer member may include a rubber block 6321 and an insert. Multiple rubber blocks 6321 are disposed on the second frame 632. The insert is preferably a rivet screw, disposed at the bottom of the storage seat and corresponding one-to-one with the rubber blocks 6321. At least a portion of the rivet screw is screwed into the rubber block to achieve an elastic connection between the storage seat and the second frame. The oil gun cabinet provided in this embodiment has a second buffer member consisting of a rubber block and an insert, which can provide a buffer for the storage seat in the horizontal direction. In this case, even if the oil gun and the storage seat are not precisely aligned, the oil gun can be flexibly guided to position itself within the storage seat, improving work efficiency. The first and second buffer components work together to provide buffering for the picking up and putting down of the oil gun from the vertical and horizontal directions, respectively, thereby improving the overall fault tolerance of the equipment.

[0049] As an alternative implementation, the rubber block can also be disposed at the bottom of the storage base, and correspondingly, the insert can be disposed on the second frame. Alternatively, the rubber block can be a single unit, and correspondingly, the insert can also be a single unit.

[0050] In the above-mentioned oil gun support structure, the first frame has a first notch structure and the second frame has a second notch structure; the first notch structure and the second notch structure correspond to each other and form a storage space in the storage rack, and the oil gun 5 can be stored in the storage space 630.

[0051] In the above-mentioned oil gun support structure, the storage base 633 has a positioning groove 6331, and the positioning groove 6331 has a positioning space. The positioning space has an opening facing upwards and on one side of the storage space. The opening above the positioning groove is a funnel-shaped opening that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, which can facilitate the positioning of the support foot. The side wall of the positioning space has a telescopic latching member 6332, which extends towards the storage space to prevent the support foot from coming out. The telescopic latching member 6332 includes a latching member housing, which is a columnar structure; a spring, which is disposed in the latching member housing; and a steel ball, which is at least partially disposed in the latching member housing and can extend movably outwards from the latching member housing. The spring provides an outward biasing force to the steel ball. The oil gun cabinet provided in this embodiment has a positioning structure for the storage base that is easy to guide and position, and is limited by the telescopic latching member, thereby improving storage stability.

[0052] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely illustrative examples for clear explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art will recognize that other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the scope of protection of this invention.
