Description
Technical Field
The utility model relates to an add anti-drop structure of oil pipe.
Background
Conventionally, as a refueling member for refueling a fuel tank of an automobile, a refueling pipe for connecting the fuel tank to a refueling port provided in a body panel (for example, a rear fender) is provided. In recent years, a synthetic resin filler tube has been increasingly used to reduce the weight of a vehicle body.
Fig. 2 is a perspective view showing a fuel filler pipe a made of synthetic resin and a part of a body panel b connected to one end of the fuel filler pipe a according to the related art. As shown in fig. 2, the filler pipe a is configured such that one end thereof (on the filler opening side of the body panel b) is connected to the body panel b; the other end thereof is connected to a not-shown oil tank. The filler tube a has a plurality of bent portions c, d, and e.
However, when the force for inserting the fuel gun into the fuel filler opening (i.e., the force for inserting the fuel gun into the fuel filler opening by the fueling operator, the force in the direction indicated by the arrow P in fig. 2) is large when the fuel tank is being refilled, the tip of the fuel gun contacts the inner wall of the filler pipe a to press the filler pipe a toward the inner side of the vehicle body, and the filler pipe a may be detached from the body panel b (detached toward the inner side of the vehicle body). Fig. 3 is a perspective view showing a state where the filler pipe a shown in fig. 2 is detached from the body panel b. If the filler pipe a falls off as shown in fig. 3, the fuel lid, not shown, cannot be closed, and the vehicle running is affected. In particular, the filler tube a made of synthetic resin has lower rigidity than the filler tube made of metal, and therefore is more likely to be deformed or detached by the insertion force.
SUMMERY OF THE UTILITY MODEL
In view of the above, an object of the present invention is to provide an anti-drop structure of an oil filler tube that can prevent the oil filler tube from dropping from a body panel even when an insertion force of an oil filler gun is large.
As a technical scheme who solves above-mentioned technical problem, the utility model provides an anti-drop structure of oil filler pipe, in this anti-drop structure of oil filler pipe, the one end and the oil filler hole of setting on automobile body plate of oil filler pipe are connected, will insert in the fuel that the nozzle injected into in the oil filler hole is leading-in to the oil tank, its characterized in that: a bent portion is formed at a position of the fuel filler pipe close to a vehicle body member, and a stopper member that restricts movement of the bent portion when the bent portion moves toward the vehicle body member is disposed between the bent portion and the vehicle body member.
The utility model discloses an above-mentioned anti-drop structure of oil filler pipe's advantage lies in, even if under the great condition of the insertion force of nozzle, also can prevent to add the oil filler pipe and drop from the automobile body plate. Specifically, when the insertion force of the fuel gun is large, the distal end of the fuel gun comes into contact with the inner wall of the fuel filler pipe and presses the fuel filler pipe toward the back side of the vehicle body, and at this time, since the stopper member is provided between the bent portion of the fuel filler pipe and the vehicle body member, the movement of the bent portion of the fuel filler pipe is restricted, and further, the movement of the entire fuel filler pipe toward the back side of the vehicle body is restricted, so that the fuel filler pipe can be prevented from falling off the vehicle body panel by being pressed toward the back side of the vehicle body.
In the above-described drop-off preventing structure for a fuel filler pipe of the present invention, the stopper member is preferably attached to the curved portion of the fuel filler pipe and has an extended portion extending toward the vehicle body member. With this configuration, the movement of the filler pipe can be effectively restricted when the insertion force of the fuel gun is large. Specifically, since the stopper member is attached to the curved portion of the fuel filler pipe and has the extended portion extending toward the vehicle body member, the gap between the extended portion and the vehicle body member is small when the insertion force is not applied, and when the fuel filler pipe starts to move when the insertion force is applied, the extended portion of the stopper member can immediately come into contact with the vehicle body member, and the movement of the curved portion of the fuel filler pipe can be quickly restricted. Thus, the movement of the filler pipe can be restricted more effectively.
In the drop-off preventing structure for a fuel filler pipe according to the present invention, the stopper member may be attached to a portion of the vehicle body member close to the bent portion, and may include an extension portion extending toward the bent portion. With this configuration, the movement of the filler pipe can be effectively restricted when the insertion force of the fuel gun is large. Specifically, since the stopper member is attached to the vehicle body member at a position close to the curved portion and has the extended portion extending toward the curved portion, the gap between the extended portion and the curved portion is small when the insertion force is not applied, and when the fuel filler pipe starts to move by the insertion force, the extended portion of the stopper member immediately comes into contact with the curved portion, and the movement of the curved portion of the fuel filler pipe can be quickly regulated. Thus, the movement of the filler pipe can be restricted more effectively.

Detailed Description
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In the present embodiment, a case where the drop prevention structure of the present invention is applied to a synthetic resin filler tube will be described.
Fig. 1 is a perspective view showing a fuel filler pipe 1 of the present embodiment and a part of a body panel (for example, a rear fender panel) 2 connected to one end of the fuel filler pipe 1. In fig. 1, an arrow FR indicates the vehicle body front; the arrow OUT indicates the outer side (e.g., left side) in the vehicle width direction; arrow UP indicates UP.
As shown in fig. 1, the filler pipe 1 is configured such that one end (upper end) thereof is connected to a filler opening provided in a body panel 2; the other end (lower end) thereof is connected to an oil tank (not shown). Further, the filler pipe 1 has a plurality of bent portions 12, 13, 15.
A fuel tank cap, not shown, is attached to the upper end of the filler pipe 1. An openable/closable filler cap (not shown) is also attached to the filler opening provided in the body panel 2. The filler cap can be opened by operating a handle arranged beside a driver seat of the vehicle.
More specifically, the upper end of the filler pipe 1 is connected to the edge of the filler opening by welding or the like. The filler pipe 1 includes a first pipe portion 11, a first bent portion 12, a second bent portion 13, a second pipe portion 14, a third bent portion 15, and a third pipe portion 16 from a connection point with an edge of a filler opening to a connection point with a tank.
The first pipe portion 11 is configured to incline downward while extending inward in the vehicle width direction from the filler opening. The first bent portion 12 is configured to be bent forward of the vehicle body from the downstream end of the first pipe portion 11. The second bent portion 13 is configured to be bent downward from the downstream end of the first bent portion 12. The third curved portion 15 is configured to curve inward in the vehicle width direction from the downstream end of the second pipe portion 14.
Further, a vehicle body member 3 is disposed at a position located inward in the vehicle width direction with respect to the filler pipe 1. The vehicle body member 3 is a vehicle body panel such as a wheel house lining.
The main feature of the fuel filler pipe 1 of the present embodiment is that a first bent portion 12 is formed at a position of the fuel filler pipe 1 close to the vehicle body member 3, and the stopper member 4 is provided between the first bent portion 12 and the vehicle body member 3. Specifically, the stopper member 4 is a metal member, and is attached to the first bent portion 12 of the filler pipe 1 by welding, bolting, or the like. The stopper member 4 includes a main body portion 41 that is curved along the outer periphery of the first curved portion 12, and an extension portion 42 that extends inward in the vehicle width direction from the main body portion 41 toward the vehicle body member 3. The front end of the extension 42 is close to the vehicle body member 3. That is, there is only a small space between the extension portion 42 of the stopper member 4 and the vehicle body member 3.
Next, an operation when filling the tank with fuel will be described. When filling the fuel tank, the fuel lid is first opened and removed to open the fuel filler opening, and then a fuel filler gun, not shown, is inserted into the fuel filler opening. At this time, if the insertion force of the fuel gun (the force of the fuel filler operator inserting the fuel gun into the fuel filler hole, the force in the direction indicated by the arrow P in fig. 1) is large, the tip of the fuel gun may contact the inner wall of the filler pipe 1, and the filler pipe 1 may be pressed toward the rear side of the vehicle body by the insertion force. However, in the present embodiment, when the fuel filler pipe 1 is pressed toward the rear side of the vehicle body by the insertion force P, the stopper member 4 is present between the first curved portion 12 of the fuel filler pipe 1 and the vehicle body member 3 (the stopper member 4 is interposed between the first curved portion 12 of the fuel filler pipe 1 and the vehicle body member 3), and therefore the extension portion 42 of the stopper member 4 comes into contact with the vehicle body member 3, and the movement of the first curved portion 12 is restricted. Therefore, the fuel filler pipe 1 can be prevented from being pushed toward the rear side of the vehicle body and from falling off the vehicle body panel.
In general, when the filler pipe a is detached from the body panel b as shown in fig. 3, the tank cap cannot be attached, which affects the traveling of the vehicle. However, according to the structure of the present embodiment, the fuel filler pipe 1 can be prevented from coming off the body panel 2, and therefore, the fuel lid cannot be closed, which does not affect the traveling of the vehicle.
The present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and can be modified as appropriate. For example, in the above embodiment, the stopper member 4 is attached to the first bending portion 12 of the fuel filler pipe 1. However, as another embodiment, the stopper member may be attached to a portion of the vehicle body member 3 close to the first bent portion 12, and in this case, it is preferable to provide an extension portion extending toward the first bent portion 12 of the fuel filler pipe 1 on the stopper member.
In addition, in the above embodiment, the case of applying the drop prevention structure of the filler pipe of the present invention to the filler pipe 1 made of synthetic resin has been described, but the drop prevention structure of the filler pipe of the present invention is also applicable to a filler pipe made of metal.
