Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of fuel dispenser calibration equipment, and in particular relates to a fuel dispenser calibration device. Background Art
[0002] The purpose of regular inspection of gas pumps is to ensure the metering accuracy of gas pumps during operation, to prevent economic losses to consumers due to metering errors, and to safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of gas stations and consumers.
[0003] When a fuel dispenser is calibrated, it is often necessary to use a metering tank to calibrate the metering performance of the fuel dispenser. During the calibration, a certain amount of fuel is generally added to the metering tank through a fuel gun. When a fuel dispenser uses a metering tank for calibration, it has certain requirements for the temperature difference between the fuel and the ambient temperature. When the temperature difference between the temperature of the fuel in the fuel dispenser and the ambient temperature is large, a certain calibration error will easily occur, which will cause great trouble to the calibration work of the fuel dispenser. Patent Publication No. CN115127646A proposes a fuel dispenser metering calibration device, which mainly includes a calibration device body, and the calibration device body is connected to a temperature regulating device for regulating the internal temperature of the calibration device body. The temperature regulating device includes a heat exchanger, and a heating device and a refrigeration device are arranged inside the heat exchanger. When it is working, the first temperature sensor thereon can detect the temperature of the fuel at the oil inlet pipe (i.e., the muzzle oil temperature) in real time, and the second temperature sensor can detect the temperature of the fuel in the calibration device body in real time. The controller starts the temperature regulating device to adjust the temperature of the fuel in the calibration device body to the same as the muzzle oil temperature. The above patent adjusts the temperature of the fuel in the main body of the testing device through the temperature regulating device thereon, which has the problems of high cost and complex structure.

[0023] An outer heat preservation cavity 5 is formed between the outer shell 3 and the inner shell 4, and a heat preservation body 6 is installed in the outer heat preservation cavity 5. The heat preservation body 6 is made of aerogel felt. By installing the heat preservation body 6 in the outer heat preservation cavity 5, the utility model can avoid the heat exchange between the inner heat preservation cavity 7 and the external environment as much as possible, so that the fuel in the inner heat preservation cavity 7 can be kept as close to the fuel temperature in the fuel dispenser as possible. The outer shell 3 plays the role of fixing and protecting the heat preservation body 6 in the outer heat preservation cavity 5.

When the utility model is in use, the oil filling gun injects fuel into the inner insulation chamber 7 through the first oil filling pipe 8. To ensure that the temperature of the fuel in the inner insulation chamber 7 is close to the temperature of the fuel in the fuel dispenser, the fuel first injected into the inner insulation chamber 7 can be emptied after a certain period of time, and then the inner insulation chamber 7 is filled with fuel again through the first oil filling pipe 8, so that the temperature of the fuel in the inner insulation chamber 7 is close to the temperature of the fuel dispenser.
