Fuel caddy with hand crank for pump located on the nozzle
The invention broadly comprises a portable device (fuel caddy) for transferring fluids, particular for transferring gasoline from a storage container to gasoline using vehicles, boats or equipment. The device includes an external housing with an inlet and a discharge through a nozzle with a pump located on the external housing, with the pump operated by a hand crank located on the nozzle. The external housing includes all-terrain wheels, a tow loop for use on ATVs' and trucks, and an extended hose to the nozzle.
TRAILER-MOUNTED METERED PUMPING SYSTEM
A trailer-mounted pumping system includes a flatbed trailer having a generally flat deck surface, a pump, a batch controller, and a metering device in electronic communication with the batch controller, wherein the pump is configured to move a liquid from at least one tote supported by the generally flat deck surface to a location off-board the flatbed trailer, and the batch controller is configured to measure a volume of the liquid via the metering device. The pump, the metering device, and/or the batch controller may be disposed beneath the generally flat deck surface.
MOBILE FUEL DISTRIBUTION STATION
A fuel distribution station includes a first fuel tank for releasably holding a first fuel, and a second fuel tank for releasably holding a second fuel. A connection member extends between the first fuel tank and the second fuel tank, and provides a rigid connection between the first fuel tank and the second fuel tank. A support structure supports the first fuel tank and the second fuel tank in an elevated position a predetermined distance above ground, sufficient to allow for passage of land vehicles beneath the support structure during a fueling operation. A control system is utilized for selectively permitting and monitoring a discharge of fuel from the first fuel tank and the second fuel tank to the land vehicles during the fueling operation.
SYSTEM FOR DISPENSING A UREA SOLUTION COMPRISING A TRANSPORTABLE CONTAINER AND ASSOCIATED DISPENSING DEVICE
The dispensing system comprises a transportable container and, inside the container, comprises at least a first vessel containing a urea solution, at least a second vessel containing an additive for the urea solution, and at least a first set of fluidic circuits, comprising a first fluidic circuit, connecting the first vessel to a junction, at least a second fluidic circuit, connecting the second vessel to the junction, the second fluidic circuit comprising a valve that can be configured between an open position, in which the first and second fluidic circuits are in fluid communication, and a closed position, and a first dispensing circuit.
Mobile distribution station with additive injector
A distribution station includes a mobile trailer and a delivery system. The delivery system includes a pump, a manifold fluidly connected with the pump, reels, hoses, valves situated between the manifold and a respective different one of the hoses, and fluid level sensors. There is also an additive injector fluidly connected with the delivery system and operable to introduce controlled amounts of an additive into the delivery system.
Trailer-mounted metered pumping system
A trailer-mounted pumping system includes a flatbed trailer having a generally flat deck surface, a pump, a batch controller, and a metering device in electronic communication with the batch controller, wherein the pump is configured to move a liquid from at least one tote supported by the generally flat deck surface to a location off-board the flatbed trailer, and the batch controller is configured to measure a volume of the liquid via the metering device. The pump, the metering device, and/or the batch controller may be disposed beneath the generally flat deck surface.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ON-DEMAND FUELING OF VEHICLES WITH AN ELECTRICALLY OPERATED MOBILE CART
A system, apparatus and method for on-demand fueling of vehicles with a mobile, motorized handcart including a cart body coupled with a fuel tank, a plurality of wheels operatively connected to the cart body, the wheels operable with a motorized traction system, a steering handle operatively connected to the cart body and including controls for controlling the motorized traction system, a coupling system for securely coupling the cart body to the fuel tank, a hose and a nozzle, a spill guard surrounding the nozzle, an electric pump for pumping fuel from the fuel tank to the customer vehicle via the hose and nozzle, and a display dock disposed on the cart body, the display dock configured to dock a computing device configured to display fueling parameters based on a customer fuel request received via a communications network.
Automatic fueling system and method for hydraulic fracturing equipment
The present invention provides a smart and automated system that is used for refueling of frac truck tanks during fracturing operations. The system is used to refuel the frac truck tanks which are constantly working in the high pressure and high-temperature zone for the fracturing of the wellbore to extract oil and gas. For safety, the system is equipped with explosion/fire free wiring system. The system incorporates inventive fuel valve to avoid the fuel clogging that increases the frac truck performance. The system employs artificial intelligence (AI) and cloud-based software for ease of operation and to maximize economic performance. The system is equipped with artificial intelligence and Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) software and incorporates charge pump and loop systems which maintain a predetermined pressure (in Pounds per Square Inch (PSI) unit) in each loop so as to maximize the performance and control function in the refueling system.
Mobile distribution station having auxiliary delivery system
A distribution station includes a mobile trailer and first and second pumps on the trailer. At least one manifold on the mobile trailer is fluidly connected with the first pump. A plurality of first reels on the mobile trailer are fluidly connected with the at least one manifold. A plurality of first hoses are connected with different ones of the first reels. A plurality of first valves on the mobile trailer are situated between the manifold and respective different ones of the first reels. A plurality of fluid level sensors are associated with different ones of the first hoses. A second reel is not fluidly connected with the manifold, and is fluidly connected with the second pump. A second hose is connected with the second reel that has a manual pump handle, and a controller is configured to individually open and close the valves responsive to the fluid level sensors.
CONTAINER WITH PUMP SYSTEM AND METHOD
A container for dispensing a liquid can include a housing. The housing can have a top wall, a base, and side walls, which form a substantially cuboid shape and a substantially uniform rectangular cross-section. The housing further includes a reservoir forming a portion of an interior of the housing. The reservoir can be configured to store the liquid. An outlet can be formed in the housing and fluidly coupled to the reservoir. A pump can be disposed in the interior of the housing. The pump can be operable to transfer the liquid between the reservoir and the outlet. A method of operating the container for dispensing a liquid includes providing the container. The liquid reservoir portion can be filled. The container can be transported to a predetermined location. The hose can be positioned and the pump can be actuated. The container can then be stored.
