【０００１】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、自動車等の車両に搭載する燃料タンクに連なる給油パイプの端部の給油口に装着するフューエルフィラーキャップと、給油口を配置した車体のフューエルフィラーケース部を覆うフューエルフィラーリッドとを備える車両用給油口装置に関する。
【０００２】
【従来の技術】
従来、この種の給油口装置として、フューエルフィラーキャップを外して給油した後のフューエルフィラーキャップの付け忘れを防止するため、フューエルフィラーキャップをフューエルフィラーケース部に繋ぎ止める連結部材を設けたものが知られている。
【０００３】
然し、連結部材を設けただけでは、給油時にフューエルフィラーキャップがフューエルフィラーケース部から垂れ下って車体外表面に当たり、車体外表面の汚損や傷付きを生ずるおそれがある。
【０００４】
かかる不具合を解消すべく、フューエルフィラーリッドの裏面にキャップホルダを設け、給油時にフューエルフィラーキャップをキャップホルダに保持させ得るようにしたものも従来知られている。
【０００５】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
上記従来例の如くフューエルフィラーリッドの裏面のキャップホルダにフューエルフィラーキャップを保持させると、フューエルフィラーケース部の開放面内にフューエルフィラーキャップ及び連結部材が張り出し、給油ガンの挿入に際しフューエルフィラーキャップや連結部材が邪魔になる。
【０００６】
本発明は、以上の点に鑑み、フューエルフィラーキャップを給油ガンの挿入の邪魔にならないように保持可能とした車両用給油口装置を提供することを課題としている。
【０００７】
【課題を解決するための手段】
上記課題を解決すべく、本発明は、燃料タンクに連なる給油パイプの端部の給油口に装着するフューエルフィラーキャップと、給油口を配置した車体のフューエルフィラーケース部を覆うフューエルフィラーリッドと、フューエルフィラーキャップをフューエルフィラーケース部に繋ぎ止める連結部材とを備えた車両用給油口装置において、該連結部材は、前記フューエルフィラーケース部に連結される紐状部と、該紐状部に結合され、前記フューエルフィラーキャップの外周に回転自在に装着されるリング部とで構成され、該リング部にはフック部が形成されていると共に、前記フューエルフィラーリッドの裏面には該フック部を引掛けてフューエルフィラーキャップを吊下げる引掛け部が設けられており、前記フック部は、引掛け部にフック部を引掛けた状態で紐状部のリング部に対する結合箇所が上方を向かないように、紐状部の結合箇所から周方向に離間させてリング部に形成している。
【０００８】
本発明によれば、フューエルフィラーキャップを引掛け部に吊下げてフューエルフィラーリッドよりも下方位置に保持することが可能になり、フューエルフィラーケース部の開放面内へのフューエルフィラーキャップ及び連結部の張り出しを抑制できる。かくて、給油ガンの挿入に際しフューエルフィラーキャップや連結部材が邪魔にならず、給油作業が容易になる。
【０００９】
ところで、フューエルフィラーキャップは給油口にねじ込みで装着されるようになっており、フューエルフィラーキャップの回転を許容できるように、連結部材は、フューエルフィラーケース部に連結される紐状部をフューエルフィラーキャップの外周に回転自在に装着されるリング部に結合して構成される。この場合、前記フック部がフューエルフィラーキャップに固定であると、リング部に対する紐状部の結合箇所とフック部との周方向の位置関係がフューエルフィラーキャップとリング部との相対回転で変化し、フューエルフィラーリッドの裏面の引掛け部にフック部を引掛けた状態において、リング部に対する紐状部の結合箇所が上方を向き、紐状部がフューエルフィラーケース部の開放面内に張り出して給油ガンの挿入の邪魔になる可能性がある。
【００１０】
これに対し、連結部材のリング部にフック部を形成しておけば、リング部に対する紐状部の結合箇所とフック部との周方向の位置関係が一義的に定まる。そして、紐状部の結合箇所から周方向に離間させてフック部を形成すれば、引掛け部にフック部を引掛けた状態で紐状部の結合箇所が上方を向くことはなく、紐状部がフューエルフィラーケース部の開放面内に張り出して給油ガンの挿入の邪魔になることを確実に防止できる。更に、フューエルフィラーキャップ自体にフック部を形成するものと異り、連結部材の変更だけで既存のフューエルフィラーキャップをフック部付きのものに改造でき、コスト的にも有利である。
【００１１】
【発明の実施の形態】
図１を参照して、１は自動車等の車両の車体であり、車体１の適所に、車載燃料タンクに連なる給油パイプの端部の給油口２を臨ませる、内方に窪んだフューエルフィラーケース部３を設け、該ケース部３を覆うフューエルフィラーリッド４をその片側の縦縁部において該ケース部３にヒンジを介して開閉自在に連結している。フューエルフィラーリッド４は、常時は、閉状態にロックされており、運転席近傍のレバーの操作でロックを解除することによりフューエルフィラーリッド４を開けられるようにしている。
【００１２】
給油口２には、図２に示す如く、フューエルフィラーキャップ５が装着されており、フューエルフィラーリッド４を開けてフューエルフィラーキャップ５を外すことにより、給油口２に給油ガンのノズルを挿入して燃料タンクに給油できるようにしている。フューエルフィラーキャップ５は、外周のねじ部５０ａを有するキャップ本体５０の外端のフランジ部５０ｂに摘み５１を取付けて構成されており、摘み５１による回転操作でキャップ本体５０を給油口２にねじ込み、キャップ本体５０に外挿したＯリング５２を給油口２の開口端に圧着させて給油口２を閉塞するようにしている。摘み５１には、キャップ本体５０の外端のフランジ部５０ｂに外嵌する筒部５１ａが形成されており、フランジ部５０ｂの裏面に当接するリテーナ５３を筒部５１ａに嵌着して、摘み５１をキャップ本体５０に固定している。
【００１３】
また、フューエルフィラーキャップ５は、連結部材６を介してフューエルフィラーケース部３に繋ぎ止められている。連結部材６は、図３に示す如く、先端の鳩目部６０ａを有する紐状部６０と、紐状部６０の基端に結合されるリング部６１とを一体成形して成る樹脂成形品で構成されており、フューエルフィラーケース部３に形成したボス部３ａに紐状部６０を鳩目部６０ａにおいてビス７止めし、リング部６１を前記筒部５１ａの外周に回転自在に装着して、フューエルフィラーキャップ５をその着脱時の回転操作を許容し得る状態でフューエルフィラーケース部３に繋ぎ止めている。
【００１４】
前記リング部６１には、紐状部６０の結合箇所から周方向に略９０°離間させて、フック部６２が形成されている。そして、フューエルフィラーリッド４の裏面下部に引掛け部４０を設け、フューエルフィラーキャップ５を外して給油する際、フューエルフィラーキャップ５がフューエルフィラーケース部３から垂れ下って車体１の外表面に当接することのないよう、引掛け部４０にフック部６２を引掛けて、フューエルフィラーキャップ５をフューエルフィラーリッド４の下方に吊下げた状態で保持し得るようにしている。フック部６２は、リング部６１から径方向外方に突出するピン部６２ａの先端にピン部６２ａより大径の球状の頭部６２ｂを形成して成り、一方、引掛け部４０は、上方に開口する箱状の本体部４０ａに、その前板部から底板部に亘って、前記ピン部６２ａの直径より広く前記頭部６２ｂの直径より狭い溝幅の係合溝４０ｂを形成して成り、係合溝４０ｂに前板部の上方からピン部６２ａを挿入して底板部の係合溝４０ｂの部分にスライドさせ、底板部の溝上に頭部６２ｂを引掛けてフューエルフィラーキャップ５を吊下げるようにしている。
【００１５】
給油時、引掛け部４０に上記の如くフック部６２を引掛けてフューエルフィラーキャップ５を吊下げれば、フューエルフィラーケース部３の開放面内にフューエルフィラーキャップ５が張り出さず、且つ、リング部６１に対する紐状部６０の結合箇所が水平方向を向いて、フューエルフィラーケース部３の開放面内への紐状部６０の張り出しが抑制される。かくて、給油ガンのノズルをフューエルフィラーキャップ５や連結部材６で邪魔されることなく給油口２に挿入できるようになり、給油作業が容易になる。
【００１６】
尚、上記実施形態では、フック部６２をリング部６１に対する紐状部６０の結合箇所から周方向に略９０°離間させたが、引掛け部４０にフック部６２を引掛けた状態で紐状部６０の結合箇所が下方を向くように、フック部６２を紐状部６０の結合箇所から周方向に９０°以上離間させて形成しても良い。
【００１７】
【発明の効果】
以上の説明から明らかなように、本発明によれば、フューエルフィラーキャップをフューエルフィラーリッドに保持させて、車体外表面へのフューエルフィラーキャップの当接による車体外表面の汚損や傷付きを防止できると共に、フューエルフィラーケース部の開放面内へのフューエルフィラーキャップや連結部材の張り出しが抑制され、給油ガンの挿入に際しフューエルフィラーキャップや連結部材が邪魔にならず、給油作業が容易になる。
