Abstract
A link connecting a lid and a base member of a filler lid structure includes first and second link members. At an opening position, a distance between a distal end of the lid and the base member is larger than a distance between a proximal end of the lid and the base member. The first link member swings about a first support portion in a direction in which a second support portion is moved away from the base member, when the lid shifts from a closing position to the opening position. A distance between a base support point at which the base member or the first link member supports a third support portion at the closing position and an end support point at which the lid supports a fourth support portion at the closing position changes when the lid shifts from the closing position to the opening position.
