The invention relates to a filling valve for dispensing a fluid, comprising an inlet opening for connecting to a fluid supply line, an outlet end () which lies opposite the inlet opening, a main valve for controlling the flow of the fluid through the filling valve, and a leakage protection valve () which is arranged downstream of the main valve, comprising a valve seat () and a valve body () which can be moved into a closed position in an upstream direction. According to the invention, the valve body () has a first sub-body () and a second sub-body () which is designed to be movable relative to the first sub-body, wherein a first fluid path () can be released by a movement of the first sub-body () in a downstream direction relative to the valve seat (), and a second fluid path () can be released by a movement of the second sub-body () in a downstream direction relative to the first sub-body (). By virtue of the two-part valve body according to the invention, the flow of fluid through the filling valve can be optimized and the back pressure accumulating in front of the leakage protection valve can be reduced.

Filling valve with leakage protection device

The subject of the invention is a dispensing nozzle for dispensing a fluid into a tank of a motor vehicle. The dispensing nozzle comprises the following features: According to the invention it is provided that the dispensing nozzle comprises an adjustable flow limiter () which is arranged downstream of the main valve () and which is configured to limit the fluid flow selectively to the first or second maximum volumetric flow rate. The dispensing nozzle also comprises an actuating device () which is configured for interaction with a signal element () which is assigned to the tank of the motor vehicle and for the selective adjustment of the flow limiter () to the first or the second maximum volumetric flow rate. By the provision of a flow limiter which is adjustable due to an interaction with the signal element, a rapid and reliable filling of different-sized containers containing liquid is ensured in a structurally simple manner.
