A FILLER NECK ASSEMBLY AND A LIQUID TANK EQUIPPED WITH SUCH A FILLER NECK ASSEMBLY

摘要

A filler neck assembly includes a supporting pan designed to be fixed at the inlet of a liquid tank positioned on a motor vehicle and said supporting pan having a central through hole mainly formed about a central axis. The filler neck assembly also includes a tubular part that is positioned in said central through hole and said tubular pan having a longitudinal axis. The filler neck assembly further includes a first abutment area and a second abutment area attached to one part which is selected between the supporting part and the tubular part, and a contacting area attached to the other part which is selected between the tubular part and the supporting part such that said contacting area can cooperate with one or other of the first and second abutment areas. The first and second abutment areas and the contacting area are arranged so that the cooperation of the contacting area with the first abutment area defines a first angular position of the tubular part with respect to said supporting part and the cooperation of the contacting area with the second abutment area defines a second angular position of the tubular part with respect to said supporting part.
