A fuel tank cap includes: a cap body which opens and closes a fuel supply port of a fuel tank; a ring member which is disposed around the fuel supply port and is shaped so as to surround the cap body; and a hinge member which is coupled to the ring member to support the cap body in a turnable manner between a closed position and an open position. A first peripheral part of the ring member, which is opposed to an outer periphery of the cap body, has a larger dimension in a circumferential direction than a dimension of a second peripheral part of the hinge member, which is opposed to the outer periphery of the cap body. The ring member and the hinge member are made of mutually different materials.

A closing device for a filler port comprises an inlet box configured to form the filler port; a lid configured to rotate about a first rotating shaft that is fixed to the inlet box, such as to open and close a surface of the inlet box; and a fuel passage-forming portion configured to form a fuel passage. The lid includes a plate-like lid main body portion configured to rotate about the first rotating shaft, and an open-close mechanism provided on an inner side of the lid main body portion as a separate body from the lid main body portion and configured to be rotatable about the first rotating shaft such as to open and close an opening. When the lid is opened from a closed position, the lid main body portion and the open-close mechanism are opened integrally. This configuration suppresses dirt or the like adhering to a surface of the open-close mechanism for the filler port from entering a fuel tank.

The present disclosure pertains to a sealing unit such a fuel tank cap for a tank unit of a motor vehicle. The sealing unit includes a cover element that can be arranged on or at least partially in an opening of a tank component of the motor vehicle such that it seals the opening of the tank component in an at least fluid-tight fashion. An actuator is arranged on an outer side of the cover element that faces away from the opening. In a non-actuated, normal position rests, flat against the outer side of the cover element. The actuator can be transferred into a gripping position, in which it at least partially extends oblique or transverse to the outer side of the cover element.

An automatic opening and closing device for a fuel inlet of a vehicle may include a cap cover mounted at the fuel inlet of the vehicle, a fuel cap pivotably mounted at the cap cover and configured to selectively open or close the fuel inlet by being pivoted inside the fuel inlet, and a fuel cap operating mechanism mounted in the fuel inlet and configured, when the fuel door is closed, to pivot the fuel cap by being pressed by the fuel door to close the fuel inlet, and, when the fuel door is opened, pivot the fuel cap to open the fuel inlet according to release of pressing by the fuel door.

A charging connection device for a vehicle includes a junction box disposed in a recess, a junction box cover flap, and a cover flap. The junction box cover flap and the cover flap are each pivotable into an open position and a closed position. The junction box cover flap covers the junction box in the closed position and the recess is coverable by the cover flap. When the cover flap is displaced from the open position into the closed position the cover flap entrains the junction box cover flap. The junction box cover flap has a first element of a junction box connecting device and the junction box or a component that defines the recess has a second element of the junction box connecting device. In the closed position of the junction box cover flap, the junction box cover flap is held magnetically releasably by the junction box connecting device.

Disclosed are a fuel door having a cap sealing structure which obviates a cap for urea solution or water injection and a vehicle including the same. The fuel door includes a protrusion configured to protrude from an inner side of the fuel door and comprising a hollow and at least one cutout part being in fluid communication with the hollow, a membrane member coupled to the protrusion so as to cover the hollow of the protrusion, and a sealing member installed on the protrusion along a circumference of the membrane member.

A filling device for a pressure vessel of a motor vehicle includes a filling neck via which an operating medium can be filled into a pressure vessel, a dust cap which can be plugged onto the filling neck and which, together with the filling neck, delimits a filling volume. A housing apparatus includes a main element and a cover element which can be adjusted relative to the main element between an open position and a closed position which, together with the main element, delimits a housing interior. The dust cap is arranged in the housing interior. At least one ventilation channel, which is delimited in regions by the dust cap, extends from the filling volume into an environment separated from the housing interior by way of the cover in its closed position and has at least one direction-reversing element.

A closure component of a tank of a motor vehicle for closing a filler neck gas- and fluid-tight, having a closure fastened to a flap, the flap being fastened to a vehicle body of the motor vehicle such that it is movable into an open or closed position, the closure including a seal, which causes the closure to close against the filler neck. The tank closure should be easy for a user to handle and have a relatively simple design and be economical to manufacture. This is achieved in that the seal is electromechanically or pneumatically adjustable with the aid of an actuator.
