- the gauging means generally comprise a float pivotally mounted on a box to follow the fuel level.
- the float carries a cursor moved over a resistive track to provide a information representative of the fuel level and / or volume contained in the vehicle tank.
- the suction means generally comprise a electric pump or a simple suction hose plunged most often in a reserve bowl to avoid disarming the system.
- Document FR-A-2636017 describes a device motor fuel suction / gauging comprising a base designed to be fixed to a wall of a fuel tank, a reserve tank mounted to slide in a general vertical direction with respect to this base and requested elastically towards the bottom of the tank relative to this base thanks to to springs, and a gauging assembly comprising a housing integral with the cover of the reserve tank and which houses a circuit cooperating with a float.

- flexibility of the strainer filter 250 and the authorized displacement of the gauging assembly 300 with respect to the reserve bowl 210 is of the order of 40 to 60mm.
- the present invention makes it possible to facilitate the assembly / disassembly of this assembly.
- the invention makes it easy to decouple the gauging assembly 300 from the suction assembly 200. It also makes it easier to replacement, in the event of failure of one or the other of these two assemblies and limits the cost of replacement since it no longer requires, as by past, replacing the entire gauging / suction assembly.
- the gauging assembly 300 is not made of a single piece, as was the case in the previous production, but of two separate parts: a housing 310 and a support leg 370.
- the housing 310 is essentially adapted to support a resistive track 380 cooperating with a cursor linked to the float 392.
- the housing 310 includes a barrel 312 which serves as a guide for rotation on the float arm 394. It also includes teeth 314 designed for fixing the resistive track support 380.
