Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2024/054189
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
This invention; automobiles, trucks, vans, scooters, tractors and all similar vehicles with license plates, pumps, pump cash registers, etc. at the fuel station. It is related to the data exchange and communication system between the equipment. With this invention; Data such as fuel type specific to each vehicle (diesel, gasoline, unleaded, electric, hybrid, etc.), license plate and license information of the vehicle will be shared with the system at the fuel station where the vehicle refuels. Thus, the wrong fuel will be put into the vehicle and there will be no need for manual plate entry into the pump cash register. In this way, the wrong or different entry of the license plate of the refuelled vehicle will be prevented.

Description:
DATA TRANSMISSION AND COMMUNICATION BETWEEN VEHICLE AND FUEL STATION SYSTEM

Technical Area

This invention; automobiles, trucks, vans, scooters, tractors and all similar vehicles with license plates, pumps, pump cash registers, etc. at the fuel station. It is related to the data exchange and communication system between the equipment. With this invention; Data such as fuel type specific to each vehicle (diesel, gasoline, unleaded, electric, hybrid, etc.), license plate and license information of the vehicle will be shared with the system at the fuel station where the vehicle refuels. Thus, the wrong fuel won't be put into the vehicle and there will be no need for manual licence plate entry into the pump cash register. In this way, the wrong or different entry of the license plate of the refuelled vehicle will be prevented.

Prior Technique

In this specification; automobiles, trucks, vans, scooters, tractors and all similar land vehicles with license plates shall be referred to as "vehicle".

In this specification; pump cash register, mobile devices of fuel station employees, other monitors or computers in the fuel station, etc. "gas station shall be referred to as "equipment".

In the prior art; There are "vehicle recognition systems" located in vehicles and used only for payment purposes at fuel stations. However, in current vehicle identification systems, information such as the fuel type of the vehicle, other vehicle data and license plate data are not transmitted.

In the prior art, when the vehicle enters the fuel station and parks at the pump; station personnel manually enters the license plate of the vehicle into the pump cash register. The fuel type of the vehicle is determined by the station personnel by looking at the warehouse entrance. This situation can sometimes cause wrong fuel to be put into vehicles. Brief Description

The most important feature of the invention; It is to provide communication and data transfer between the fuel station equipment and the vehicle.

Data transferred to the fuel station by the vehicle data transfer circuit; cash register and/or min a monitors and/or station personnel can be view by the mobile devices of the personnel. The most important purpose of the invention; It is to prevent the wrong fuel (gasoline, diesel, unleaded, etc.) being put into the tanks of the vehicles at fuel stations and to eliminate the workload of manually entering license plates or entering information into pump cash registers. In addition, the wrong or different entry of the license plate of the vehicle to which the fuel is filled is prevented.

Electronic circuits containing data transfer software that enable communication are installed on vehicles (cars, trucks, vans, scooters, tractors and all plate vehicles) and fuel station equipment (pump cash register, at least one monitor at the fuel station, mobile devices in the station personnel, etc.). When the vehicle arrives at the station to pick up fuel products, this communication system ensures that the correct fuel is filled and completely wrong fuelling is prevented. The mentioned communication system also provides the license plate, chassis number, engine number, license information, etc. of the vehicles transfers the data to the gas station equipment.

Communication channels related to the communication system; It can be in the form of wired, wireless, Wi-Fi, internet, card reader, radio frequency, EAS, Bluetooth, infrared, active and passive card, visible and barcode systems. In other words, data transfer is carried out by any remote communication method.

Detailed Description of the Invention

This invention is related to the system that provides communication and data exchange between vehicles and equipment in fuel stations, and its feature is;

When the vehicle comes to the fuel station to refuel and fill the fuel products, the fuel type of the vehicle and/or the license plate of the vehicle and/or the chassis number of the vehicle and/or the engine number of the vehicle and/or the license information of the vehicle and/or all other data of the vehicle, at least one vehicle data transmission that enables the transmission via remote communication methods transfer circuit;

At least one monitor at the pump cash register and/or fuel station and/or mobile devices in the station personnel, which enables the vehicle to display the data transmitted from the vehicle data transfer circuit and to perform appropriate operations with these data;

Pump sensors that detect the fuel type information of the vehicle transmitted from the vehicle data transmission circuit, preventing the wrong fuel filling into the vehicle tank; It contains a license plate detector that detects the license plate information of the vehicle transmitted from the vehicle data transfer circuit and allows it to be entered into the pump cash register automatically.

A preferred embodiment of the invention, possible versions and application method are described below.

The invention is basically about providing communication and data exchange between the fuel station equipment and the vehicle.

Within the scope of the invention; There is a vehicle data transmission circuit that can be installed on vehicles with sensors that allow reading of all or part of said data, including existing vehicles. The vehicle data transfer circuit transmits the information (data) coming from various sensors (sensors) within the vehicle to the receiving equipment in the fuel station by means of remote communication methods. These data are; fuel type of the vehicle and/or the license plate of the vehicle and/or the chassis number of the vehicle and/or the engine number of the vehicle and/or vehicle's license information and/or all other data belonging to the vehicle.

Receiver equipment at fuel stations; can be defined as at least one monitor at the pump cash register and/or fuel station and/or mobile devices in the station personnel. Station personnel monitor vehicle data from said receiving equipment. Also receiving equipment; It displays the data of the vehicle transmitted from the vehicle data transfer circuit and enables the vehicle to be processed in accordance with these data. For example, it prevents the wrong fuel being put into the vehicle. As another example, it ensures that the license plate of the vehicle is automatically entered into the pump cash register.

Station personnel putting the wrong fuel in the vehicle; blocked by pump sensors. The pump sensors detect the fuel type information of the vehicle transmitted from the vehicle data transmission circuit and prevent the fuel flow from the wrong pump. Thus, it is prevented that the wrong or different fuel is put into the vehicle.

With this invention; station personnel do not manually enter the vehicle license plate into the pump cash register. The plate detector located in the pump cash register detects the license plate, fuel type and license information of the vehicle transmitted from the vehicle data transfer circuit, and ensures that they are entered into the pump cash register automatically. Thus, incorrect or incomplete plate entry is prevented. Expressed in the description; Adjectives such as "top", "bottom", "front", "back", "inside", "outside", "side" do not define a priority, direction and/or sequence that would limit the invention. In order to better understand the embodiment of the invention, the expressions are used in this way.
