A holding assembly for holding an electrical charging device includes: a base plate having an upper side and at least one latching hook which extends from the upper side of the base plate and which latches with a latching contour of the charging device; and a securing frame which is attached to the base plate so as to be movable between a first position and a second position and clamps the latching hook in an open state in the first position and to secure the latching hook in a closed state in the second position.

The invention relates to a retaining apparatus (1) having a filter element (3) in a fluid line (2) which can be flowed through in a flow direction (V) by a fluid (F) comprising a foreign fluid (X), having a volume flow control apparatus (5) by way of which the volume flow (S) through the fluid line (2) can be controlled, having a sensor device (6) by way of which the fraction of foreign fluid (X) in the fluid (F) can be determined, and having a control device (7) by way of which the volume flow (S) can be controlled by way of the volume flow control apparatus (5) in a manner dependent on the fraction of foreign fluid (X) in the fluid (F) as determined by way of the sensor device (6). The invention furthermore relates to a fuel tank filling installation having said retaining apparatus, and to a method for retaining foreign fluid from a fluid.

Methods and systems are provided for indication of a degradation in an EVAP and/or fuel system. In one example, a method for indication of a presence or absence of a degradation in a refueling system may include vacuum pull-down and pressure bleed-up tests being carried out based on a state of submersion of a spud valve in liquid fuel in a fuel tank.

A system for controlling shut-off of a fuel pump nozzle in a fuel tank includes: a fuel evaporation gas blocking unit configured to separate an outer space of a fuel injection part of the fuel pump nozzle inserted inside the filler pipe into a first space into which external air is introduced and a second space into which fuel evaporation gas that is discharged from the fuel tank is introduced and to block the evaporation gas from being introduced into the first space; an external air suction jet pump mounted in the fuel tank and configured to suck external air thereinto and discharge the external air into the fuel tank, by receiving a portion of fuel transmitted from the fuel pump in the fuel tank as a working fluid; and a jet pump connection hose configured to connect the first space and the external air suction jet pump.

The invention relates to the technical field of vehicle charging, and particularly provides a vehicle charging port mounting assembly and a vehicle. The invention aims to solve the problem that existing charging port components have a poor design of mounting structure and thus cannot well meet the usage requirements. To this end, the vehicle charging port mounting assembly of the invention comprises a body side outer panel, a charging port component, a charging port mounting component, a rear wheel cover outer panel and a rear wheel cover outer panel reinforcing plate, wherein the charging port mounting component comprises a mounting bracket and an accommodation support member which is provided with an accommodation chamber, the mounting bracket being disposed in the accommodation chamber and fixedly connected to the accommodation support member, and the accommodation support member being disposed between the body side outer panel and the rear wheel cover outer panel. The charging port component is fixed by both the mounting bracket and the accommodation support member, thereby effectively improving the durability and NVH features of this region. The design requirement of dry-wet separation can also be effectively achieved by means of the accommodation support member, and the local strength of this region can be increased by means of the rear wheel cover outer panel reinforcing plate, thereby effectively meeting multiple requirements.

A lockable assembly for a fuel filler pipe including a cap supported upon a unit mounted to the fuel filler pipe. The clip has at least one locking tab which is actuated by a key insertable portion incorporated into the cap and in order to lock or unlock the cap for removal from the outside part of the unit attached to the filler pipe. The key insertable portion can further include a rotatable component. The at least one locking tab further includes a pair of locking tabs which are radially displaced via the rotatable component so that the tabs displace in opposite directions. Other features include a sliding limiter component associated with each of the oppositely directed locking tabs.
