ABSTRACT:
A fuel filler door structure is provided with such an arrangement that one end of a toggle spring is adapted to engage with the bracket for the mount of a fuel filler door complete, and the other end of the toggle spring is adapted to engage with the middle portion of a hinge rod extending in a crank-like shape in an offset relationship with a line passing the both ends of the crank shaped hinge rod. By the effect of the toggle spring, the fuel filler door complete may be urged continuously in either way of closing or opening across the dead point of urging effected by the toggle spring.
