FUEL TRANSFER PUMP WITH WIRELESS CONTROL

A fuel transfer pump electrical circuit for controlling a fuel transfer pump comprises a controller with communications logic configured for establishing a wireless communications link with a mobile device and a switch for activating a motor in the pump. The switch is controllably linked to the controller. The controller is configured to turn the switch on and off based on instructions received via the wireless communications link, thereby controlling the fuel transfer pump to turn a flow of fuel on and off. A mobile device application for interacting with the fuel transfer pump is also described.

Smart fuel nozzle

A nozzle for delivering fuel from a fueling station that can be remotely triggered to shut-off prior to the receiving fuel tank being filled. The nozzle includes a valve that can be opened by a lever and latched into the open position for continuous filling. The nozzle handle has an actuator positioned to cause the latch to release the lever and a controller that can energize the actuator in response to receipt of a wireless signal indicating that the delivery of fuel should be terminated. A wireless communication interface of the nozzle is in wireless communication with a fuel management system that can monitor a fuel flow meter to signal the nozzle to shut-off when the amount of fuel that has been delivered reaches a predetermined amount.

INTELLIGENT FUEL DISPENSERS

In general, intelligent fuel dispensers are provided. In at least some implementations, an intelligent fuel dispenser can determine customer identities and/or other characteristics and provide customized fueling sessions based on the determined customer identities and/or other characteristics. In at least some implementations, the fuel dispenser includes a touchless interface allowing customers to complete fueling sessions with minimal physical contact with the fuel dispenser.
