Abstract:
A manual liquid pump has a drawing device, a connecting tube, an outlet
gun and a detecting device. The drawing device is inserted into a
container to draw liquids and has a caution shaft. The connecting tube
has an inner and outer pipe. The inner pipe is mounted in the outer pipe
and is connected to and actuates the caution shaft. The outlet gun has a
returning valve being selectively actuated to close and prevent liquid
from flowing through the outlet gun, instead forcing the liquid down the
inner pipe and actuating the caution shaft to warn users to stop pumping.
The detecting device is mounted in the nozzle and actuates the return
valve when a liquid level is too high to prevent overfilling and spillage
for safer operation.Claims:

Description:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0001]1. Field of the Invention
[0002]The present invention relates to a manual liquid pump, and more particularly to a manual liquid pump having an auto shut-off valve to prevent overfilling.
[0003]2. Description of Related Art
[0004]Conventional manual liquid pumps usually comprise a drawing device, a joint pipe and an outlet gun. The drawing device is used to fill gas or air into a storage container by hand to draw the liquid out of the storage container. The joint pipe is connected to the drawing device to transport the liquid drawed out of the storage container. The outlet gun is connected to the joint pipe opposite to the drawing device and is used to fill the liquid drawed out of the storage container into a bucket or a can.
[0005]The conventional manual liquid pump can be used to transport liquid from the storage container to a bucket or can. However, the conventional liquid pump cannot detect the liquid level of the liquid that filling the bucket or can. When the liquid has filled the bucket or can, and the user still operates the conventional manual liquid pump to transport the liquid into the bucket or the can, the liquid will continue to be added causing overflow. If the liquid is a volatile liquid such as the gasoline, such overflow is dangerous liquid.
[0006]To overcome the shortcomings, the present invention provides a manual liquid pump to mitigate or obviate the aforementioned problems.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
[0007]The main objective of the present invention is to provide a manual liquid pump having an auto shut-off valve to prevent overfilling.
[0008]The manual liquid pump in accordance with the present invention has a drawing device, a connecting tube, an outlet gun and a detecting device. The drawing device is inserted into a container to draw liquids and has a caution shaft. The connecting tube has an inner and outer pipe. The inner pipe is mounted in the outer pipe and is connected to and actuates the caution shaft. The outlet gun has a returning valve being selectively actuated to close and prevent liquid from flowing through the outlet gun, instead forcing the liquid down the inner pipe and actuating the caution shaft to warn users to stop pumping. The detecting device is mounted in the nozzle and actuates the return valve when a liquid level is too high to prevent overfilling and spillage for safer operation.
[0009]Other objectives, advantages and novel features of the invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description when taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

The middle of the actuating element (44) is mounted in the slit (436) of the base (431) and is pivotally connected to the pivot shaft (433). The mounting end (442) of the actuating element (44) extends out of the outer end of the base (431). The guiding posts (443) are formed on the connecting end (441) and are movably mounted in guiding tracks (437) of the cover (432). The circular hole (444) is formed through the middle of the actuating element (44) and is mounted around the pivot shaft (433).

The rear end of the flow pipe (46) is mounted around the outer end of the base (431) of the returning valve (43). The front end of the flow pipe (46) is mounted in the holding hole (333) of the holding panel (332).
[0040]The floating shaft (47) is movably mounted in the nozzle (33) of the outlet gun (30) parallel to the flow pipe (46) and has an inner end and an outer end. The inner end of the floating shaft (47) is mounted in the nozzle (33) near the outer end of the base (431) and abuts the actuating element (44) near the mounting end (442). The outer end of the floating shaft (47) extends to the free end of the nozzle (33).
[0041]When the manual liquid pump is used to transport liquid from a container to another one, the mounting barrel (111) and the drawing pipe (112) of the body (11) are placed in a container and the nozzle (33) of the outlet gun (30) is placed in a tank. Then, the operating head (132) of the piston rod (13) is moved reciprocatorily to make the check valve (131) move relative to the mounting barrel (111). Then, the liquid will draw and transport liquid from the container to the tank through the drawing pipe (112), the mounting barrel (111), the drawing holes (123), the chamber (121), the output tube (126), the outer pipe (21), the attachment tube (411), the returning seat (42), the through hole (434) of the base (431) and the flow pipe (46).
[0042]With reference to FIGS. 8 and 9, when the liquid is drawn to fill the tank, the liquid in the tank will flow back up the nozzle (33) and make the floating shaft (47) move further into the nozzle (33). Then, the inner end of the floating shaft (47) will push the mounting end (442) of the actuating element (44) to rotate relative to the base (431) and the connecting end (441) of the actuating element (44) will make the cover (432) close the through hole (434) of the base (431).
[0043]Should the piston rod (13) remain in operation, liquid flowing into the mounting jacket (41) will be stopped by the cover (432) closing the through hole (434) of the base (431) and will flow into the inserting hole (141) of the pushing block (14) via the central tube (421), the inner pipe (22) and the returning conduit (143). As the inserting hole (141) fills up with the liquid, the pushing axle (142) will move upward relative to the pushing block (14) and the top end of the pushing axle (142) will push the pushing segment (153) of the pivot seat (15) upward. Then, the mounting segment (151) of the pivot seat (15) will move relative to the mounting recess (127) to make the pivot seat (15) rotate relative to the drawing mount (12). With rotation of the pivot seat (15) relative to the drawing mount (12), the engaging hole (152) of the pivot seat (15) will engage the external surface of the piston rod (13) and the upper end of the caution shaft (16) will extend out of the shaft hole (125) of the drawing mount (12). This reminds a user to stop moving the piston rod (13) to prevent the liquid from flowing over the container. Therefore, the manual liquid pump can be operated safely.
[0044]Even though numerous characteristics and advantages of the present invention have been set forth in the foregoing description, together with details of the structure and features of the invention, the disclosure is illustrative only. Changes may be made in the details, especially in matters of shape, size, and arrangement of parts within the principles of the invention to the full extent indicated by the broad general meaning of the terms in which the appended claims are expressed.
