FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a fuel tank for receiving liquid propane gas, in particular a cylindrical fuel tank for motor vehicles equipped with a valve assembly mounted on a valve carrier ring or for valves mounted on a overseas market, mounted on a cavity in a cylindrical fuel tank within the outline of the fuel tank body. It is an aspect of the invention that one side wall (7) parallel to the valve shaft of the cavity (3) receiving the valve unit or valves (4) mounted on the valve carrier ring or rings (4), has an angle of main axis with the longitudinal axis of the cylindrical fuel tank (2), while another side wall ( 6) perpendicular to the former sidewall (7), however, this cavity (3) is closed with a lid (12) sealed hermetically, but may be opened for inspection of the valve assembly or valves (5) and in the region of said lid (12) the pipelines (8) connected to the valve unit or valves (5) pass through at least one cylindrical lead-through (9) out of the fuel tank (2), which is flattened off the outer end of the passageway (9) along its plane angled to its axis of rotation, and these passages (9) and pipelines (8) filled with space silicone or similar sealant. ŕ |
