Fuel collection device for a motor vehicle

In a fuel collection device for a fuel tank in a motor vehicle, a swirl pot is connected, by a catching connection and a locking connection, to a holding element mounted in the fuel tank. The catching connection, along with a supporting element, allows the swirl pot to be secured in a plane. The locking connection retains the swirl pot on the holding element. A sliding element allows the locking connection to be blocked.

A plug connector for an electrical connection has at least two electrical lines, the ends of which are connected to contact elements, includes: a housing that encompasses the electrical lines and the contact elements at least in a region of connecting the electrical lines to respective contact elements; and a holder fixedly connected to the housing. The holder has receptacles configured to hold the electrical lines, the receptacles holding the lines such that the lines cannot move out of position.

Connector

A fuel tank for a motor vehicle having a chamber delimited by a wall and having an activated carbon filter located to ventilate the volume of the fuel chamber located above the level of fuel in the tank.

Fuel tank

In a fuel tank ( ) with a plug which is to be opened, in particular, during maintenance work, a plugging part ( ) is fastened in a trough-like depression ( ) of the wall of the fuel tank ( ) by means of a nut ( ). The nut ( ) has a thread ( ) intended for tapping into a bead ( ) of the fuel tank ( ). As a result, the fuel tank ( ) can be manufactured particularly cost-effectively from geometrically simple parts.
