The plate body comprises a first side edge, a second side edge, a curved top edge, a lower edge, a back side, a front side, the guard plate comprises at least a first lower bolt hole arranged along the lower edge of the guard plate. proximate to the curved top edge, the guard plate comprises a first upper indention and a second upper indention, each configured to receive a portion of a first upper fastener and a second upper fastener, respectively. The guard plate comprises a rotational origin created by rotating the guard plate around a first lower fastener in the first lower bolt hole.

The invention relates to a tank module for a motor vehicle, with a housing in which a recess is provided, wherein a connecting element is arranged in the recess, a protective element for the connecting element, which can be moved between at least two positions, namely: a rest position in which the recess can be closed by the protective element, and an operating position in which the recess can be released by the protective element so that the connecting element is exposed, the protective element having an outer surface, and at least one sensor for detecting an activation action of a user to transfer the protective element between the rest position and the operating position, wherein the protective element is mounted in such a way that the outer surface of the protective element in the rest position and the outer surface of the protective element in the operating position are aligned parallel to one another.

A cover apparatus for a motor vehicle body has a movement device (5) with first and second guide rails (8, 9) that are spaced from one another and received rigidly on the motor vehicle body (2). A covering element (4) covers a filling connector (7) of the motor vehicle body (2) and is received movably on the motor vehicle body (2). The covering element (4) is coupled to the first and second guide rails (8, 9). A third guide rail (10) is transverse to the first and second guide rails (8, 9). The third guide rail (10) is configured to be movable relative to the motor vehicle body (2) and the first and second guide rails (8, 9). The third guide rail (10) is configured to receive the covering element (4), and the covering element can be moved relative to the third guide rail.

An actuating device for opening and closing a cover in or on a vehicle includes a housing, a rotatable plunger, a spring that preloads the plunger into a discharge position, and an actuating sleeve into which the plunger can be introduced. At least one actuating groove extends helically around the longitudinal axis of the actuating sleeve and is formed on the inside of the sleeve. At least one actuating projection of the plunger engages into the actuating groove when the plunger is introduced into the actuating sleeve causing the plunger to rotate about its longitudinal axis during an axial relative movement between the actuating sleeve and the plunger. A blocking device blocks plunger movement into the discharge position to hold the plunger in a locked position. A spring element preloads the blocking device into a blocking position, and an actuator disengages the blocking device from the blocking position.

An actuating apparatus for opening and closing a cover in or on a vehicle has a blocking device for blocking the cover in a locked position. The blocking device has a transmission mechanism with a rotation part (64.1; 50) mounted rotatably and driveable by an actuator (34), and a blocking bar (62) which is operatively connected to the rotation part. The transmission mechanism converts a rotation movement of the rotation part into an axial movement of the blocking bar. The blocking bar is transferable with the aid of the rotation part from a release position into a blocking position. The transmission mechanism is self-locking so that, at least whenever the blocking bar is in the blocking position, the rotation part is not driveable via an axial movement of the blocking bar, and the rotation part prevents an axial movement of the blocking bar out of the blocking position.

A sealing device for sealing a through opening in a vehicle chassis includes a sealing element that can be shifted between an open position, in which the through opening is released, and a closed position, in which the through opening can be closed. The sealing device has an adjusting device which includes a guide housing that can be arranged in a spatially fixed manner on the vehicle chassis, in which guide housing a carrier element is translationally and pivotably guided, where the carrier element has the sealing element. A slide guide is provided, via which the carrier element can be translationally shifted and pivoted in relation to the guide housing. A traction element is translationally entrainably connected to the carrier element, and simultaneously connected in a rotationally decoupled manner, via a pivot bearing. The traction element is translationally shiftable by the drive.

Device for closing and releasing a power charging port of a motor vehicle having a cover part moveable by a guiding mechanism, fixed to the vehicle in an installed and ready to operate condition, between a closed position closing the power charging port and an open position releasing the power charging port. An emergency actuation device moves the cover part into the open position, and a drive mechanism controls movement of the cover part. A coupling mechanism activates the emergency actuation device and deactivates the drive mechanism, and is connected to the emergency actuation device. The coupling mechanism is associated with a mechanical securing mechanism, which cooperates with the emergency actuation device. When the emergency actuation device is deactivated, the securing mechanism produces an additional form fit to secure a power transmission of the drive mechanism. The additional form fit is lifted upon activating of the emergency actuation device.

A closure device for closing an access opening in a motor-vehicle body. An inner chamber is accessible via the access opening and the access opening can be closed by a cap element. The cap element is connected to a guide device, which is arranged in the inner chamber and via which the cap element can be adjusted between a closed position and an open position. The guide device is configured such that the cap element executes a pushing movement and a lifting movement as it moves between the closed position and the open position. The cap element, in the open position, is arranged in the inner chamber.
