用燃料タンクの注ぎ口用閉鎖蓋に関する。BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a fuel tank closure lid comprising a lid body and a cap body having a knob projection fitted on and projecting from the lid body. The present invention relates to a closure for a spout of an automobile fuel tank, wherein the closure is made of plastic and the tab lugs are separable from the lid body under the action of collision forces.

口が一部開いたままになる。[0004] When a vehicle body is deformed due to an accident in a body wall area having an opening or a recess, the wall area is deformed.
During this deformation, the opening of the spout may be one because the perimeter of the opening hits the knob projection of the closing lid and either tears off the closing lid from the spout end piece or brings the closing lid onto the end piece into the inclined position. The club remains open.
