A filling system includes a pipe, a restricting member, a detector, and an actuator. The restricting member is disposed in the pipe to restrict insertion of an object into the pipe. The detector is configured to detect the presence of a metal nozzle in the pipe. The actuator is configured to move the restricting member to enable access through the pipe.

An improper fuel nozzle insertion-inhibiting assembly is configured to prevent an improper fuel-dispensing device from dispensing fuel into a fuel fill line of a vehicle. The assembly may include a cover including an open cavity defined by a circumferential wall and a front face wall, and a main body defining an internal chamber. At least one barrier door may be pivotally secured to the main body. The barrier door(s) is configured to close a nozzle-receiving channel that extends through the internal chamber. The barrier door(s) may include an integral pivot axle that is pivotally secured to an axle bearing within the main body. The barrier door(s) is configured to be pivoted open by inward urging of a proper or compatible fuel nozzle.

A fuel filling neck includes a closure flap pivotably mounted thereon to be pivoted between a neck closed position and a neck open position. The flap is preloaded into the closed position by spring pretension. A mis-filling prevention device is in the filling neck between the closure flap and an insertion opening for a fuel pump nozzle and has a closed position that prevents the closure flap from being pivoted into the open position, and an enabling position permitting the closure flap to be pivoted into the open position. The mis-filling prevention device is mounted with axial play so as to be first axially forced against the closure flap by the fuel pump nozzle as the nozzle is inserted, the closure flap being moved into a partly open position, and, during subsequent further insertion of the nozzle, the mis-filling prevention device being moved into the enabling position.

An erroneous refueling prevention device restricts or allows insertion of a refueling gun into a refueling passage depending on an outer diameter of the refueling gun. The device includes a flap configured to open or close the refueling passage by a turn of the flap about a first turn pivot; and a switch configured to be unlocked from the flap by a turn of the flap to a half-opened state, and to turn about a second turn pivot. The switch includes a protrusion detector configured to, in response to the turn, project to a position where the protrusion detector faces the refueling passage. The switch restricts or allows a turn of the flap from the half-opened state to a fully-opened state, depending on a turn amount of the switch to be determined by a contact relationship between the protrusion detector and the refueling gun.

Systems are provided for refueling a fuel tank of a motor vehicle via an insert for a filler pipe. In one example, a system may include an insert coupled to an inner circumference of the filler pipe, the insert including a plurality of projections positioned on an inner circumference of the insert. The plurality of projections may include a first projection spanning a first axial length, a second projection spanning a second axial length, and a third projection spanning a third axial length.

An erroneous fuel feed prevention device includes paired flaps having a surface slanted relative to a direction of insertion of a fuel feeding nozzle. A turn shaft part, a support hole, and paired extension portions are provided. A first biasing member is configured to bias flaps of the paired extension portions to turn in a closing direction. A first restriction portion and a second restriction portion are configured to restrict the flaps from turning in an opening direction. While slanted surfaces are pressed by the fuel feeding nozzle, each of the flaps slide outward in radial directions of the fuel feed passage to release turning restriction states of the first restriction portion and the second restriction portion, and after the release, the flaps turn in an integrated manner with the extension portions being in contact with the respective other flaps.

Provided are a filler tube and a filler neck including the filler tube that may reliably prevent false injection of fuel even though structures thereof for suppressing the false injection of the fuel are simplified. A filler tube defining a path through which fuel from an injection nozzle is supplied to a fuel tank is provided. The filler tube includes: a main body having a hollow defined therein, into which the injection nozzle is inserted; a first rotating part disposed to penetrate one side wall of the main body and axially connected to the main body to be axially rotatable outwardly of the main body; and a second rotating part disposed to penetrate the other side wall of the main body to face away from the first rotating part and axially connected to the main body to be axially rotatable outwardly of the main body.

Disclosed herein is an integrated fuel mixing prevention device for a diesel vehicle, in which a diesel filler neck and a urea filler neck are integrated with each other to prevent fuel from mixing, allowing only a diesel fuel filling gun to be inserted into a fuel inlet when a diesel fuel filling mode is selected and allowing only a urea filling gun to be inserted into the fuel inlet when a urea filling mode is selected, which may prevent a fuel mixing an accident caused by incorrect replenishment.

An erroneous refueling prevention device restricts or allows insertion of a refueling gun into a refueling passage depending on an outer diameter of the refueling gun. The device includes a flap configured to open or close the refueling passage by a turn of the flap about a first turn pivot; and a switch configured to be unlocked from the flap by a turn of the flap to a half-opened state, and to turn about a second turn pivot. The switch includes a protrusion detector configured to, in response to the turn, project to a position where the protrusion detector faces the refueling passage. The switch restricts or allows a turn of the flap from the half-opened state to a fully-opened state, depending on a turn amount of the switch to be determined by a contact relationship between the protrusion detector and the refueling gun.

An erroneous oil feed prevention device includes paired flaps having a surface slanted relative to a direction of insertion of an oil feeding nozzle. A turn shaft part, a support hole, and paired extension portions are provided. A first biasing member is configured to bias flaps of the paired extension portions to turn in a closing direction. A first restriction portion and a second restriction portion are configured to restrict the flaps from turning in an opening direction. While slanted surfaces are pressed by the oil feeding nozzle, each of the flaps slides outward in radial directions of the oil feed passage to release turning restriction states of the first restriction portion and the second restriction portion, and after the release, the flaps turn in an integrated manner with the extension portions being in contact with the respective other flaps.
