[0018] 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.

[0019] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-4 This application will be described in further detail.

[0020] A hose placement bracket for a refueling station includes a support rod 7 and a support portion. The support rod 7 is provided with a rotating structure, and the support portion is connected to the rotating structure. The rotating structure allows the support portion to be rotatably mounted on the support rod 7. When the hose placed in the support portion is dragged, the support portion can rotate in the direction of the hose dragging under the action of the rotating structure, making the hose less likely to be damaged during the dragging process.

[0021] The rotating structure includes a bearing 12, a mounting plate 8, and a fixing plate 9. The mounting plate 8 is fixedly mounted on the support rod 7. The bearing 12 is mounted on the mounting plate 8, the fixing plate 9 is mounted on the bearing 12, and the support portion is mounted on the fixing plate 9. The bearing 12 is located between the fixing plate 9 and the mounting plate 8. The support portion and the support rod 7 are rotatably connected via the bearing 12.

[0022] A limiting assembly is connected to the fixed plate 9 and is attached to the mounting plate 8. The limiting assembly includes a limiting plate 3 and an abutment plate 4. Two limiting plates 3 are fixedly mounted on the mounting plate 8. The abutment plate 4 is fixedly mounted on the fixed plate 9 and is positioned between the two limiting plates 3. The limiting assembly restricts the rotation angle of the support part on the support rod 7. Through the setting of two limiting plates 3 and one abutment plate 4, the rotation angle of the support part is limited between the two limiting plates 3. The abutment plate 4 has a guide groove 5, which abuts against the outer wall of the mounting plate 8. The guide groove 5 makes the support part more stable during rotation and less prone to shaking.

[0023] The mounting plate 8 has multiple threaded holes that penetrate the fixing plate 9. The threaded holes are threadedly connected to threaded rods 11. When the support part does not need to rotate, the support part can be fixed to the support rod 7 by threading the threaded rods 11 into the threaded rods 11.

[0024] The support unit includes a fixed seat 10, a support plate 2, and a baffle 1. The fixed seat 10 is fixedly connected to the fixed plate 9, the support plate 2 is fixedly mounted on the fixed seat 10, and the baffle 1 is fixedly mounted on the support. Two baffles 1 are mirror images of each other on the support plate 2. The support plate 2 is an arc-shaped plate, which increases the support surface for the hose, allowing the delivery hose to fall more easily onto the bracket, making the filling process more stable and safe. The baffle 1 prevents the hose from slipping off the support plate 2.

[0025] A stabilizing frame 6 is fixedly installed on the support rod 7. The stabilizing frame 6 is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom. The narrow end of the stabilizing frame 6 faces the support part. The stabilizing frame 6 increases the strength of the support rod 7, improves the support force of the support rod 7 on the support part, and makes the support rod 7 less prone to deformation and damage.

[0026] The implementation principle of this embodiment is as follows: When in use, the threaded rod 11 is removed from the threaded rod 11. The support part and the support rod 7 can rotate around the bearing 12 as the pivot. Under the action of the two limiting plates 3 and the abutment plate 4, the rotation angle between the support part and the support rod 7 is limited, so that the rotation of the support part does not affect the subsequent filling and use. At the same time, when dragging the hose placed on the support part, the support part can rotate with the direction of the hose dragging under the action of the rotating structure. At this time, the hose is not easily damaged by dragging, thus achieving the effect of making the hose less likely to be damaged during dragging.
