A EQUIPMENT FOR DETECTING REMAIN OF FUEL IN FUEL TANK

摘要

PURPOSE: A device for detecting fuel remains in a fuel tank is provided to easily perform a maintenance work and a repair work, and to accurately measure fuel remains using a hollow probe. CONSTITUTION: A device(100) for detecting fuel remains in a fuel tank comprises a hollow probe(20), a beam emitter(44), and a beam detector(46). A through hole(22) is formed on the outer surface of the hollow probe. The hollow prove is formed in a pipe shape and is installed in the inner space of a fuel tank(1). Fuel accepted in the inner space of the fuel tank flows into the hollow probe through the through hole. The beam emitter and the beam detector form a detecting unit(40). The detecting unit calculates the height of the fuel accepted in the fuel tank.
