PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To commonly use between different types of vehicles.SOLUTION: A filler pipe F includes a filler opening 11 on an upstream end fixed to an opening part Ea, Eb of an outer plate Pa, Pb of a vehicle body Ba, Bb, and a tank connection part 12 on a downstream side connected to a fuel tank T. A bellows part 14 which can adjust a length of a straight part 13 in an axial direction is formed on the straight part 13 connected to the filler opening 11. When the filler opening 11 is fixed to the outer plate Pa, Pb of the vehicle body Ba, Bb, a position of the filler opening 11 can be fitted to the opening part Ea, Eb of the outer plate Pa, Pb by extending and shortening the bellows part 14 in response to a shape of the outer plate Pa, Pb and adjusting the length of the straight part 13. As the straight part 13 connected to the filler opening 11 is telescopic, the filler pipe F can be used commonly between a plurality of types of vehicles with the outer plate Pa, Pb in different shapes.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
【課題】異なる車種間での共用化を実現する。【解決手段】上流端の給油口11が車両ボディBa,Bbの外板Pa,Pbの開口部Ea,Ebに固定され、下流端のタンク接続部12が燃料タンクTに接続されるフィラーパイプFであって、給油口11に連なるストレート部13に、ストレート部13の軸線方向の長さを調節可能な蛇腹部14が形成されている。車両ボディBa,Bbの外板Pa,Pbに給油口11を固定する場合、外板Pa,Pbの形状に応じて蛇腹部14を伸縮させてストレート部13の長さを調節すれば、給油口11の位置を外板Pa,Pbの開口部Ea,Ebに合わせることができる。給油口11に連なるストレート部13が伸縮可能なので、外板Pa,Pbの形状の異なる複数の車種間でフィラーパイプFを共用できる。【選択図】図1
