ABSTRACT:
To form an easily manufactured and installed end piece and nozzle receptor (1) for a fill pipe of a fuel tank of a motor vehicle, adapted to receive a fuel dispensing nozzle (14) of a specific type, for example for lead-free gasoline, the nozzle receptor is a single, unitary element (1) of electrically conductive sheet metal, preferably aluminum or stainless steel. It is formed with an inner thread (5) to receive a fuel cap and, just beyond, formed with an extended sealing flange (6), adapted to fit, sealingly, against an end portion (8) of the fill pipe (4). The seal can be obtained, for example, by welding the fill pipe and the nozzle receptor, preferably along a welding bead (7). A circumferential apron (9) extends from the flange (6), the apron having a height varying along its circumference so that it can fit against the body or chassis (11) of the motor vehicle, and be attached thereto along a laterally projecting attachment flange (10). The nozzle receptor has a tubular portion (2) which, at its inner end, is formed with a constricted opening (13) to permit reception only of the special-type fuel dispensing nozzle (14). A lateral opening (19) is cut in the wall of the tubular portion and the tube wall material bent outwardly in form of a tab (18) to provide an attachment element for a resiliently biassed, selectively movable valve flap (15).
