FILLER CAP FOR A LIQUID RECEPTACLE WITHIN A VEHICLE

摘要

A filler cap for a liquid receptacle within a vehicle. The filler cap includes a first body part ( 1 ) having an essentially cylindrical construction with a first end ( 1 a) and second end ( 1 b). The first end ( 1 a) of the first body part ( 1 ) includes a means for concentrically engaging a receptacle opening neck 5 . The second end ( 1 b) of the first body part ( 1 ) has a second body part ( 2 ) pivotally attached thereto along a pivot axis ( 3 ). The pivot axis ( 3 ) intersects a longitudinal center axis ( 4 ) of the first body part ( 1 ) at an essentially right angle. The second body part ( 2 ) is moveable between a rest position and an operating position. In the rest position, the second body part ( 2 ) is essentially aligned with a plane of the second end of the first body part ( 1 ). In the operating position, the second body part ( 2 ) is essentially orthogonal to the plane of the second end of the first body part ( 1 ).
