Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0004] When refueling a kerosene stove tank directly from a kerosene jerrycan, the tank is tilted while refueling. At this time, there is no place to grip the bottom of the jerrycan, so fingers tend to slip, and it is often necessary to change the grip on the tank midway through refueling. Finding a way to firmly grip the jerrycan while refueling was a challenge. In addition, when refueling, negative pressure is created inside the jerrycan, causing refueling to stall, and it is necessary to loosen the refueling cap and draw in air, so preventing negative pressure was a challenge. [Means for solving the problem]

[0005] Therefore, the poly tank band of this invention is designed so that the band is passed through the handle hole at the top of the poly tank, wrapped around it vertically (up and down), and the user can place their fingers on the band at the bottom of the poly tank, allowing them to firmly hold the poly tank and perform refueling work stably without their fingers slipping. In addition, the refueling cap with an air intake hole of this invention is designed so that when holding the poly tank and refueling, the inside of the poly tank does not become negatively pressurized, and the air intake hole is attached to the refueling cap of the poly tank. By opening the air vent cover with a single touch, air is drawn in through the intake hole, bringing the inside of the poly tank to atmospheric pressure, which allows for smooth refueling. [Effects of the Invention]

[0006] It has the following effects: (1) By placing your fingers on the band at the bottom of the plastic container, you can firmly hold the container and refuel in a stable manner. (2) The poly tank band is made of a braided fabric band with a snap-on buckle (hereinafter referred to as "buckle") attached, and the length of the band that wraps around the tank can be adjusted, so it can be used according to the shape of the tank. (3) The multi-layered portion of the poly tank band becomes the bottom of the poly tank, allowing you to grip it with your fingers. (4) It is easy to install and anyone can do it. (5) The fuel filler cap with an air intake hole allows for air intake during refueling, bringing the inside of the poly tank to normal pressure and enabling smooth refueling.

[0008] The poly tank band of this invention uses a braided fabric band, with a buckle attached to one end of the band. Furthermore, approximately 70 cm from the buckle, the band is made of the same material, layered two to three times and sewn together with a sewing machine to increase its thickness. This prevents the band from twisting during refueling and makes it easier to grip. To attach the poly tank band, pass it through the handle hole at the top of the poly tank, wrap the band vertically (up and down), and adjust the length with the buckle. To prevent the buckle from dropping to the bottom of the tank, the poly tank handle and buckle are suspended using a buckle displacement prevention band. Additionally, when holding the poly tank and refueling, to prevent negative pressure inside the tank, open the air intake lid of the refueling port cap (one-touch opening / closing type) to maintain normal pressure inside the tank and facilitate refueling. [Examples]

[0009] An embodiment will be described below with reference to the attached drawings.
