Betriebsstoffen wie Kraftstoffen, Schmiermittel oder flüssige Reinigungsmittel, Fig. 2 eine Seitenansicht des Behälters ähnlich wie in Figur 1, jedoch mit einem aus Kunststoff hergestellten Abschlussteil, das an einen Kotflügel angepasst ist,Operating materials such as fuels, lubricants or liquid cleaning agents, 2 shows a side view of the container similar to that in FIG. 1, but with a closing part made of plastic, which is adapted to a fender,
Fig. 3 einen Schnitt entlang der Linie A-A gemäß Figur 1.3 shows a section along the line A-A according to FIG. 1.
In der Zeichnung ist mit 1 ein Behälter zur Aufnahme von flüssigen Betriebsstoffen, insbesondere von Kraftstoffen oder Schmiermitteln für Kraftfahrzeuge dargestellt, der aus mehreren zusammenfügbaren Behälterteilen 1.1, 3 hergestellt sein kann. Das mittlere Behälterteil 3 kann aus einem Leichtmetallwerkstoff, beispielsweise auch aus einem Aluminiumwerkstoff mit Legierungsbestandteilen bestehen und jeweils im Bereich seiner beiden außenliegenden Stirnseiten an äußere Behälterteile 1.1 angeschlossen und beispielsweise mit diesen verschweißt werden.In the drawing, 1 represents a container for holding liquid operating materials, in particular fuels or lubricants for motor vehicles, which can be made from several container parts 1.1, 3 which can be joined together. The middle container part 3 can consist of a light metal material, for example also of an aluminum material with alloy components, and in each case connected to outer container parts 1.1 in the region of its two outer end faces and welded to them, for example.
Wie aus Figur 1 hervorgeht, kann zumindest in der rechten Hälfte des Behälters 1 ein Schwallblech 9 als Zusatzteil in den Behälter integriert werden, wobei das Schwallblech 9 in vorteilhafter Weise an der Innenfront mindestens an einem Tragelement 2 befestigt sein kann. Im Ausführungsbeispiel gemäß Figur 1 ist das Schwallblech 9 an zwei gegenüberliegenden Tragelementen 2 angeschweißt, die in die Behälterwand des Behälters 3 bzw. 1.1 integriert sind. Der Außendurchmesser der Tragelemente 2 entspricht in etwa dem Außendurchmesser der Behälter 1.1 und 3. Auf diese Weise erhält man eine durchgehende Fläche, beispielsweise wenn der Behälter 1 als Trittblech mit in eine Trittstufe des Fahrzeugs integriert werden soll . Die Tragelemente 2 können auch in das Behälterinnere des Behälters 3 bzw. 1.1 so integriert werden, dass sie mit ihrer Außenoberfläche mit der Außenoberfläche des Behälters 3 bzw. 1.1 abschließen.
