Abstract
A fuel filler assembly, in particular for a motor vehicle, having a filler, and a cap for closing a mouth of the filler and provided internally with a cylinder rotated by means of an operating key is disclosed. A reversible locking arrangement is provided for reversibly locking relative rotation of the cylinder with respect to the cap to selectively assume, when the cap is fitted closing the filler, a first operating position permitting relative rotation of the cylinder with respect to the cap and, hence, withdrawal of the operating key, and, when the cap is detached from the filler, a second operating position preventing relative rotation of the cylinder with respect to the cap and, hence, withdrawal of the operating key from the cylinder.
