[0051] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0052] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the present invention provides a physics teaching demonstrator for an oil meter, including a support base 1;
[0053] The fuel dispenser 2 is installed on the support base 1 and has a first oil outlet, which is connected to the fuel nozzle 3 through a pipeline.
[0054] The oil storage tank 4 is arranged above the fuel dispenser 2. It is a transparent barrel with an opening at the top. The fuel nozzle 3 is used to inject oil into the oil storage tank 4.
[0055] A second oil outlet is provided at the bottom of one side of the oil storage tank 4, and an oil inlet is provided on the same side of the fuel dispenser 2 and the oil storage tank 4. The oil inlet is connected to the second oil outlet.
[0056] The demonstration panel 6 is vertically mounted on the support base 1, and an arc-shaped resistance wire coil 7, an indicator rod 8 and an oil gauge 9 are provided on its front surface;
[0057] A fulcrum is provided in the middle of the indicator rod 8. An indicator arrow is provided at the front end of the indicator rod 8. A metal slider is installed inside the indicator arrow. The metal slider is connected to the resistance wire coil 7 and can slide on its surface. A support rod 10 is connected to the rear end of the indicator rod 8. A float ball 11 is connected to the end of the support rod 10 away from the indicator rod 8. The float ball 11 is placed in the oil storage tank 4.
[0058] It also includes a switch 12, a resistor 13 and a power supply 14. A wire is connected to the metal slider. The other end of the wire is connected to one pole of the power supply 14 through the resistor 13. One end of the resistance wire coil 7 is connected to the other pole of the power supply 14 through the wire, the switch 12 and the fuel gauge 9.
[0059] The working principle and beneficial effects of the above embodiments are as follows:
[0060] This utility model's fuel gauge teaching demonstrator injects fuel into a storage tank 4 via a fuel nozzle 3. The storage tank 4 is transparent, facilitating observation of the fuel injection and level changes. A float 11 is placed inside the storage tank 4. As fuel is injected, the fuel level rises, and the float 11 rises accordingly. The float 11 is connected to the rear end of an indicator rod 8 via a support rod 10. The rise of the float 11 causes the indicator rod 8 to rotate around a fulcrum. A second fuel outlet is provided at the bottom of one side of the storage tank 4. A plug or drain valve 5 is connected to the fuel inlet of the fuel dispenser 2 via a pipeline. When the plug or drain valve 5 is opened, fuel flows into the fuel dispenser 2, the fuel level in the storage tank 4 drops, and the float 11 falls accordingly, causing the indicator rod 8 to rotate in the opposite direction around the fulcrum. The drain valve 5 has the function of ensuring that the fuel in the storage tank 4 flows into the fuel dispenser 2 at a uniform speed.
[0061] As the indicator lever 8 rotates, the metal slider slides on the resistance wire coil 7, changing the resistance value of the resistance wire coil 7. When the metal slider slides on the resistance wire coil 7, the change in resistance value causes a change in the current passing through the fuel gauge 9, thereby displaying different fuel level readings on the fuel gauge 9.
[0062] 1. When the refueling nozzle 3 fills the liquid storage tank 4 with oil, the oil level rises, the metal slide moves downward, and the reading of the oil level gauge 9 increases.
[0063] 2. When the relief valve 5 is opened, the oil level drops, the metal slide moves upward, and the reading of the oil gauge 9 decreases.
[0064] Through the movement of the transparent oil tank 4, the observable float 11, and the indicator rod 8, students can intuitively understand the working principle of the fuel gauge. Through practical demonstrations, students can combine theoretical knowledge with practical operation to deepen their understanding of the working principle of the fuel gauge.
[0065] In one embodiment,
[0066] A hydraulic pump 15 is connected to the first oil outlet, and the hydraulic pump 15 is connected to the oil gun 3 through a pipeline.
[0067] The hydraulic pump 15 is connected to the fuel nozzle 3 through the first oil outlet. It is responsible for drawing oil from the oil storage tank 4 and pressurizing and delivering it to the fuel nozzle 3. The operation of the hydraulic pump 15 makes the oil flow more stable and controllable, which can simulate the working state of a real fuel dispenser and increase the fun and realism of teaching.
[0068] In one embodiment,
[0069] The fuel dispenser 2 is covered by a housing, which is mounted on a support base 1. The fuel tank 4 is mounted on the housing, and a hook for hanging the fuel nozzle 3 is formed on the housing.
[0070] The housing encloses the internal components, such as the fuel dispenser 2, to protect them and prevent accidental contact. The fuel tank 4 is mounted on the housing, which provides additional support and protection for it. Hooks for hanging the fuel nozzle 3 are formed on the housing, facilitating the storage and retrieval of the fuel nozzle 3 and reducing safety hazards when the fuel nozzle 3 is not in use. The design of the housing makes the entire demonstrator look cleaner and more aesthetically pleasing, enhancing the overall visual appeal of the teaching environment.
[0071] In one embodiment,
[0072] The aforementioned switch 12, resistor 13, and power supply 14 are all arranged on the demonstration panel 6, which integrates the control and display of the entire demonstrator into one area, making it convenient for operation and observation, and also convenient for the arrangement of wires.
[0073] In one embodiment,
[0074] The aforementioned resistor 13 is set as a bar indicator light to more intuitively show whether the circuit is in a conducting or non-conducting state.
[0075] In one embodiment,
[0076] The aforementioned resistance wire coil 7 and oil level gauge 9 are mounted side by side above the demonstration panel 6, allowing students to observe two key components simultaneously and deepen their understanding of the relationship between oil level changes and resistance changes. The oil level gauge 9 displays a digital or analog reading of the oil level, while the resistance wire coil 7 reflects the amount of oil through the position change of the metal slider. The metal slider slides on the resistance wire coil 7, and its position change directly affects the reading of the oil level gauge 9. Students can understand the change in oil level by observing the position of the metal slider.
[0077] In one embodiment,
[0078] Both the indicator rod 8 and the support rod 10 mentioned above are made of acrylic material, which is durable and easy to clean and maintain.
[0079] In one embodiment,
[0080] The power supply 14 is configured with three 1.5V batteries connected in series. A stable power supply can ensure the reliability of the demonstrator during the teaching process and improve the teaching effect.
[0081] In one embodiment,
[0082] like Figure 4 As shown, the demonstration panel 6 is set as a magnetic suction plate, and the oil level gauge 9 is attached to the demonstration panel 6.
[0083] in,
[0084] The fuel gauge 9 adopts a split structure, including a fuel level display component and an indicator component.
[0085] It also includes a current display component 16, which is located directly below the fuel level display component or the current display component. Depending on the teaching requirements, the indicator component can be switched between the fuel level display component and the current display component.
[0086] The change in current in the test circuit reflects the change in the amount of oil in the oil tank 4; using Ohm's law, that is, the relationship between current, voltage and resistance (I=U / R), the change in the amount of oil in the tank can be indirectly reflected by measuring the change in current in the circuit; at the same time, students can understand the relationship between the change in current and the amount of oil by observing the changes in the values of the oil level display component and the current display component.
[0087] In summary:

It is designed to simulate the working state of a real refueling machine, ensuring the stable flow and controllability of the fuel, thereby guaranteeing teaching quality and increasing the interest and realism of the teaching.
