<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To secure adequate filling for a sub-tank without bubbling in a large volumetric flow even in the case of a small volumetric flow by providing a filling pipe with a branch means, and distributing one partial flow to a sub-tank, the other partial flow to a fuel tank. SOLUTION: A filling pipe 2 is provided with a branch means 6 formed as a separating thin plate 5, and the separating thin plate 5 divides the filling pipe 2 into an upper cross section part 7 for a partial flow guided to a fuel tank 1 and a lower cross section part 8 for a second partial flow by a conduit member 17. The separating thin plate 5 partially rushes in a curved part 3 so that by the influence of centrifugal force, fuel closely adhering to the outward area of the wall part 9 of the filling pipe 2 advantageously advances into the lower cross section part 8 especially in the case of a comparatively small volumetric flow. In the case of a large volumetric flow, the lower base section part 8 and the upper base section part 7 of the filling pipe 2 are also completely filled.</p> |
