Abstract

See full text

A fuel tapping device for an engine-independent, auxiliary motor vehicle heater is provided which taps fuel from a fuel storage tank of a motor vehicle fuel supply unit and feeds the fuel to the motor vehicle heater by a connecting pipe. This fuel tapping device has a flexible pipe which has a smallest possible cross section and which is placed in a fuel pipe part that projects into the fuel storage tank so that its free end extends to near the bottom of the fuel storage tank. The fuel tapping device can comprise an intermediate piece, which can be Y-shaped, and uses a branch leg for catheter-like insertion of the flexible pipe. As an alternative, the fuel tapping device can also be designed so that the flexible pipe is fixed in the intermediate piece and forms a preassembled unit with it.
