FUEL GAUGE HOLDER |
摘要 |
Fuel testing gauges used in preflight checks of an aircraft are typically straw-shaped cylindrical elements which tend to accidentally slip through a fuel tank opening and become lost in the tank. A fuel gauge holder which resiliently engages the outer surface of the gauge and extends laterally from a central axis of the cylindrical gauge serves to prevent accidental loss of the gauge and simplifies handling by the pilot or other user of the fuel gauge. |

1. A holder (10) adapted to secure to an elongated fuel gauge structure (12) having a central axis, comprising:
a central holder portion (14) formed with a bight (20) configured to frictionally engage an outer surface of said fuel gauge structure (12) and a plurality of wing portions (14, 16) extending laterally with respect to said central axis of said fuel gauge structure (12) for a sufficient distance to prevent a gauge and holder, while engaged together, from sliding through a fuel tank opening of predetermined diameter. |
