Abstract
Arranged in a fuel tank of a motor vehicle are guide elements and guide plates which deflect a flow of the fuel toward a wall of the fuel tank at a flat angle. Splashing noises of the fuel are thereby markedly reduced. The guide plates form a channel with a calming region, in which the flow of the fuel is throttled.
