View Patent ↗This invention relates to a kit of parts ( 1 ), comprising top plates ( 2 ), gable cover plates ( 3 ), gable structures each comprising a nozzle boot, side cover plates, and side structures ( 4 ) each comprising a nozzle boot ( 5 ), which kit of parts ( 1 ) is suitable for assembling a nozzle module according to any one of three configurations. The invention also relates to a fuel dispensing unit for refueling vehicles.
1. A kit of parts, comprising:
a top plate;
a pair of gable cover plates;
a pair of nozzle boots;
a pair of gable structures;
a pair of side cover plates; and
a pair of side structures;
wherein said kit of parts is suitable for assembling a nozzle module having two opposing gable sections, two opposing side sections, and a top section according to each one of following three configurations:
a) the top section is formed by said top plate; each of the two opposing gable sections is formed by said gable cover plates; and at least one of the two opposing side sections is formed by said side structures comprising the nozzle boot,
b) the top section is formed by said top plate; each of the two opposing gable sections is formed by said gable cover plates; and the two opposing side sections comprise said side structures comprising the nozzle boot, and
c) the top section is formed by said top plate; one of the two opposing gable sections is formed by said gable cover plates; the other of the two opposing gable sections is formed by one of said gable structures comprising the nozzle boot; and each of the two opposing side sections is formed by one of said side cover plates.
2. The of parts according to claim 1 , wherein said two opposing gable sections of said nozzle module are parallel and each extend in a tapering manner from a bottom section of said nozzle module to said top section.
3. The of parts according to claim 1 , wherein said two opposing side sections extend in a mutual converging manner from a bottom section of said nozzle module to said top section.
4. The kit of parts according to claim 1 , wherein said nozzle boot of each gable structure is integrally formed therewith.
5. The kit of parts according to claim 1 , wherein said nozzle boot of each side structure is integrally formed therewith.
6. The kit of parts according to claim 1 , wherein each of said gable structure ( 10 )further comprises a hose outlet ( 12 ).
7. The of parts according to claim 6 , wherein said hose outlet of each gable structure is integrally formed therewith.
8. The kit of parts according to claim 1 , further comprising stiffening elements for stabilizing nozzle modules, each of said stiffening elements being assembled in a nozzle module in each one of said three configurations.
9. The of parts according to claim 8 , wherein said stiffening elements includes a group of stiffening elements in which each stiffening element comprises a support structure adapted for supporting a tube arrangement extending through said nozzle module.
10. The kit of parts according to claim 1 , wherein said top plates includes a group of top plates in which each top plate is provided with at least one opening adapted to form a lead-through for a tube arrangement extending through said nozzle module.
11. A fuel dispensing unit for refueling vehicles, comprising a nozzle module assembled with a kit of parts according to claim 1 .
