Beschreibung der AusführungsbeispieleDescription of the embodiments

Eine in Figur 1 vereinfacht dargestellte Kraftstoffördereinrichtung für Kraftfahrzeuge weist ein Kraftstofförderaggregat 10 auf, das Kraftstoff aus einem Vorratsbehälter 12 zur Brennkraftmaschine 14 des Kraftfahrzeugs fördert. Das Kraftstofförderaggregat 10 ist über eine Kraftstoffleitung 16 mit der Brennkraftmaschine 14 verbunden, die an einem Stutzen 20 des Kraftstofförderaggregats 10 befestigt ist. Zur Kraftstoffördereinrichtung kann außerdem beispielweise auch ein Rücklauf von der Brennkraftmaschine 14 in den Vorratsbehälter 12 gehören, durch den überschüssiger, von der Brennkraftmaschine nicht verbrauchter Kraftstoff in den Vorratsbehälter 12 zurückgeführt wird und der ebenfalls eine Kraftstoffleitung 22 umfaßt, die an einem Stutzen 24 an der Brennkraftmaschine 14 und/oder am Vorratsbehälter 12 befestigt ist. Zur Kraftstoffördereinrichtung kann außerdem ein Flansch 26 gehören, durch den eine Öffnung 28 im Vorratsbehälter 12 verschließbar ist und der Stutzen 30 aufweist, auf denen innerhalb und außerhalb des Vorratsbehälters 12 angeordnete Abschnitte der Kraftstoffleitungen 16 und/oder 22 befestigt sind. Zur Kraftstoffördereinrichtung können außerdem weitere Bauteile gehören, an denen ebenfalls an einem Stutzen eine Kraftstoffleitung befestigt ist.One shown in simplified form in FIG Fuel delivery device for motor vehicles has Fuel delivery unit 10, the fuel from a Reservoir 12 to the internal combustion engine 14 des Motor vehicle promotes. The fuel delivery unit 10 is via a fuel line 16 to the internal combustion engine 14 connected to a nozzle 20 of the Fuel delivery unit 10 is attached. For Fuel delivery device can also, for example, also a return from the internal combustion engine 14 in the Reservoir 12 belong, by the excess, of the fuel in the internal combustion engine is not used Storage container 12 is returned and also one Fuel line 22 includes, which is connected to a nozzle 24 on the Internal combustion engine 14 and / or on reservoir 12 is attached. To the fuel delivery device can also include a flange 26 through which an opening 28 in Storage container 12 is closable and the nozzle 30 on which inside and outside the Reservoir 12 arranged sections of the Fuel lines 16 and / or 22 are attached. For Fuel delivery device can also other components belong to which also on a nozzle one Fuel line is attached.

Nachfolgend wird beispielhaft die Ausbildung der am Stutzen 20 des Kraftstofförderaggregats 10 befestigten Kraftstoffleitung 16 beschrieben, die in gleicher Weise für alle weiteren Kraftstoffleitungen der Kraftstoffördereinrichtung anwendbar ist. Die Kraftstoffleitung 16 ist als Rohr ausgebildet und kann aus steifem Kunststoff bestehen. Das Rohr 16 kann zumindest abschnittsweise wellenförmig in Form eines sogenannten Wellrohrs ausgebildet sein, so daß es in seinem Verlauf flexibel an die jeweiligen Einbauverhältnisse angepaßt werden kann. Der Stutzen 20 weist an seinem Außenumfang wenigstens einen Kragen 34 auf; vorzugsweise sind mehrere in Längsrichtung zueinander vesetzte Kragen 34 vorgesehen. Die Kragen 34 sind an ihren zum freien Ende des Stutzens 20 weisenden Seiten angeschrägt, um ein leichtes Aufschieben des Rohrs 16 zu ermöglichen, und mit ihren gegenüberliegenden Seiten etwa senkrecht zur Längserstreckung des Stutzens 20 angeordnet. Der Stutzen 20 weist somit eine tannenbaumähnliche Form auf, dessen Spitze zum freien Ende des Stutzens 20 weist. Zu seiner Befestigung am Stutzen 20 kann das Rohr 16 in seinem Endbereich erwärmt werden, so daß es sich erweitert und auf den Stutzen 20 über die Kragen 34 geschoben werden kann. Bei der Abkühlung schrumpft das Rohr 16 wieder, wobei die Kragen 34 sich in dieses einkrallen und somit das Rohr 16 auf dem Stutzen 20 halten, so daß dieses nicht mehr abgezogen werden kann. Alternativ kann das Rohr 16 auch ohne Erwärmung montiert werden, wobei dessen Ende unter entsprechender Kraftaufwendung auf den Stutzen 20 aufgeschoben wird. Im maximalen Pressungsbereich setzt sich das Kunststoffmaterial des Rohrs 16, so daß sich dieses auf dem Tannenbaumprofil des Stutzens 20 verkrallt und somit das Rohr 16 gegen Abziehen sichert.The following is an example of the training of the nozzle 20 attached to the fuel delivery unit 10 Fuel line 16 described in the same way for all other fuel lines of the Fuel delivery device is applicable. The Fuel line 16 is designed as a tube and can be made of rigid plastic. The tube 16 can at least sectionally wavy in the form of a so-called Corrugated tube to be formed so that it is in its course flexibly adapted to the respective installation conditions can be. The nozzle 20 has on its outer circumference at least one collar 34; preferably several are in Collars 34 offset in the longitudinal direction are provided. The Collars 34 are at their free ends of the neck 20th bevelled sides to be easily pushed open to allow the tube 16, and with their opposite sides approximately perpendicular to Longitudinal extension of the nozzle 20 arranged. The nozzle 20 thus has a fir tree-like shape, the top of which points to the free end of the nozzle 20. For its attachment at the nozzle 20, the tube 16 can be heated in its end region be so that it expands and over to the nozzle 20 the collar 34 can be pushed. When cooling the tube 16 shrinks again, with the collar 34 in claw this and thus the pipe 16 on the nozzle 20th hold so that this can no longer be removed. Alternatively, the tube 16 can also be mounted without heating be, the end of which under appropriate Force is pushed onto the nozzle 20. in the The maximum pressure range is set by the plastic material of the tube 16 so that this is on the fir tree profile of the connector 20 claws and thus the tube 16 against Pulling off secures.

Das Rohr 16 weist bei einem in den Figuren 2 und 3 dargestellten ersten Ausführungsbeispiel nahe dem Stutzen 20 in einem über den Stutzen 20 hinausragenden Bereich an seinem Außenumfang einen nach außen ragenden Anlagewulst 36 auf. Der Anlagewulst 36 kann vorteilhafterweise durch einen Wellenabschnitt des Rohrs 16 gebildet sein, von denen mehrere aneinandergereiht wie vorstehend beschrieben einen Abschnitt des Rohrs 16 in Form eines Wellrohrs bilden, das flexibel verbiegbar ist. Wenn ein Ausbau des Rohrs 16 oder des Kraftstofförderaggregats 10 erforderlich ist, so kann das Rohr 16 so abgetrennt werden, daß von diesem wie in Figur 3 dargestellt ein Reststück 16a mit dem Anlagewulst 36 auf dem Stutzen 20 verbleibt. Das Reststück 16a des Rohrs 16 bildet dann einen neuen Stutzen, auf dem eine neue Kraftstoffleitung 23 in Form eines flexiblen Schlauchs befestigbar ist. Vorzugsweise wird das Rohr 16 direkt nach dem Anlagewulst 36 abgetrennt, so daß das freie Ende des verbleibenden Reststücks 16a sich etwa konisch verjüngt, wodurch das nachfolgende Aufschieben des Schlauchs 23 erleichtert ist. Da der Anlagewulst 36 über den Stutzen 20 hinausragt ist sichergestellt, daß beim Abtrennen des Rohrs 16 der Stutzen 20 nicht teilweise mit abgetrennt wird. Der Anlagewulst 36 verhindert ein Abrutschen des Schlauchs 23, der gegebenenfalls zusätzlich auf dem auf dem Stutzen 20 angeordneten Reststück 16a mittels einer Schlauchklemme 38 gesichert werden kann. Das auf dem Stutzen 20 verbleibende Reststück 16a des Rohrs 16 ist außerhalb des Anlagewulstes 36 an seinem Außenumfang glatt ausgebildet, das heißt, daß die Kragen 34 nicht durch dieses hindurchdrücken, so daß die Verbindung des Schlauchs 23 mit dem neuen Stutzen dauerhaltbar ist.The tube 16 has one in FIGS. 2 and 3 illustrated first embodiment near the nozzle 20th in an area projecting beyond the connector 20 its outer circumference an outwardly projecting abutment bead 36 on. The contact bead 36 can advantageously by a Shaft section of the tube 16 may be formed, of which several lined up as described above one Form section of the tube 16 in the form of a corrugated tube, the is flexibly bendable. If an expansion of the pipe 16 or of the fuel delivery unit 10 is required, so the tube 16 are separated so that from this as in FIG. 3 shows a remaining piece 16a with the contact bead 36 remains on the nozzle 20. The remainder 16a of the tube 16 then forms a new nozzle on which a new one Fuel line 23 in the form of a flexible hose is attachable. Preferably, the pipe 16 is directly after the bead 36 separated so that the free end of the remaining remaining piece 16a tapers approximately conically, whereby the subsequent pushing of the hose 23 is relieved. Since the abutment bead 36 over the nozzle 20th protrudes ensures that when disconnecting the tube 16 of the connector 20 is not partially separated. The Contact bead 36 prevents the hose 23 from slipping, which, if necessary, additionally on the on the nozzle 20th arranged residual piece 16a by means of a hose clamp 38 can be secured. The remaining on the nozzle 20 Remaining piece 16a of the tube 16 is outside the abutment bead 36 formed smooth on its outer circumference, that is, the collar 34 do not push through this, so that the Connection of hose 23 to the new connector is durable.

In Figur 4 ist das Rohr 16 gemäß einem zweiten Ausführungsbeispiel dargestellt, bei dem der Anlagewulst 36 auf dem auf dem Stutzen 20 angeordneten Bereich des Rohrs 16 angeordnet ist. Das Rohr 16 kann dabei in seinem über den Stutzen 20 hinausragenden Bereich eine Markierung 40 aufweisen, beispielsweise in Form einer Einkerbung, an der das Abtrennen des Rohrs 16 erfolgen sollte, ohne daß ein Teil des Stutzens 20 mit abgetrennt wird. Der Anlagewulst 36 kann dabei etwa auf derselben Höhe enden wie der Stutzen 20 oder bereits auf dem Stutzen 20 enden, so daß auch ein glatter Abschnitt des Reststücks 16a des Rohrs 16 nach dessen Abtrennen auf dem Stutzen 20 verbleibt.In Figure 4, the tube 16 is according to a second Embodiment shown in which the abutment bead 36th on the area of the pipe 16 arranged on the connecting piece 20 is arranged. The tube 16 can be in his on the Stub 20 projecting area a mark 40 have, for example in the form of a notch on the the separation of the tube 16 should be done without a Part of the connector 20 is separated with. The contact bead 36 can end at approximately the same height as the nozzle 20 or already end on the nozzle 20, so that a smooth portion of the remaining piece 16a of the tube 16 after its separation remains on the nozzle 20.
