Abstract: A method of dispensing a liquid including providing a liquid containing resilient storage reservoir, positioning the reservoir in the path of traction portions a vehicle, providing a shroud which is generally outwardly open and adapted to receive a hose and storing the hose therein. The hose is removed from the shroud and secured to connector which communicates with the interior of the reservoir. The vehicle is moved over the reservoir in such a manner that the traction portions runs over at least a portion of the liquid storage reservoir in a generally longitudinal axial direction to urge the liquid out of the reservoir while resisting substantial lateral expansion of the reservoir in front of the traction portions. The method and reservoir may be employed to refuel a vehicle by connecting the reservoir with a fuel inlet of the vehicle. The hose is preferably secured within the shroud when the reservoir is not receiving or dispensing liquid.

Abstract: A method of dispensing a liquid including providing a liquid containing resilient storage reservoir, positioning the reservoir in the path of traction means of the vehicle and moving the vehicle so as to cause the traction means to run over at least a portion of the resilient liquid storage reservoir in a longitudinal axial direction to thereby urge liquid out of the reservoir while resisting substantial lateral expansion of said reservoir in front of said traction means. The method and reservoir may be employed to refuel a vehicle by connecting the reservoir with a fuel inlet of the vehicle. The reservoir is preferably composed of a resiliently deformable material. It is preferably elongated and has tapered end. The reservoir may advantageously have tread means on the upper surface and/or lower surfaces.
