ABSTRACT:
A sealing device for use in a refueling opening is provided with an elastic seal member which seals a gap between a tubular casing provided in the refueling opening and a fueling nozzle inserted into the casing at the time of refueling. The elastic seal member is mounted inside a seal retaining member which is mounted inside the casing, The elastic seal member has a relief lip capable of closely contacting the casing to effect sealing, and a seal lip capable of closely containing the inserted fueling nozzle to effect sealing. A gap is formed around the outer periphery the seal lip, thereby allowing the seal lip to expand so that the inside diameter thereof increases in conformity with the outside diameter of the fueling nozzle as the nozzle is inserted.
