This driving device for energy replenishment port visor member includes: a visor member which advances/retracts between an advanced position for covering, from above, a replenishment port exposed at a vehicle-body-side opening and used for replenishing a vehicle with energy, and a retracted position where the visor member is retracted from above the replenishment port; a visor driving unit which advances/retracts the visor member between the advanced position and the retracted position; a gun connection detection unit which detects whether or not an energy replenishment gun is connected to the replenishment port; and a control unit which causes the visor driving unit to execute advancing-driving for advancing the visor member from the retracted position to the advanced position, when the gun connection detection unit has detected that the energy replenishment gun is connected to the replenishment port in a state in which the visor member is at the retracted position.

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.

A tank connection apparatus connects a tank filler pipe with a fuel tank in a fuel filling line of a vehicle, and it includes: a coupling body containing the mechanism components on its own body and providing connection between a corrugated connection pipe and the tank connector female housing, a corrugated connection pipe mounted between the tank filler pipe and the coupling body, and preventing cracking and/or breaking by extending in situations like accidents, a tank connector female housing mounted to the fuel tank inlet, a locking spring found on the coupling body and fixing the coupling body in the tank connector female housing when the coupling body is attached to the tank connector female housing. The tank connection apparatus also has a safety lock attached to the coupling body and fixing the locking spring with regard to the axis of rotation, and thus preventing it from coming loose.

A charging connector device for a motor vehicle. A connector socket, which is arranged in a depression, with a pivotable cover, which can be detachably connected to said connector socket, as well as a pivotable cover flap, which closes the depression reversibly. The cover and the cover flap can pivot between a closed position and an opened position. The cover, situated in the opened position, is arranged in the pivoting path of the cover flap, which can pivot from the opened position to the closed position by a motor-driven positioning device, and, during the pivot movement of the cover flap, is entrained by the latter for closure.

A motor vehicle filler inlet compartment lid arrangement is disclosed. A filler inlet compartment lid is mounted so that it can swivel around a lid axis relative to a vehicle body. A filler module with at least one filler passage for filling up the motor vehicle is joined with the filler inlet compartment lid so that it can swivel relative to the vehicle body between a use and non-use position.
