Abstract: The invention provides a dispensing valve or fuel nozzle having an earth (ground) cable and/or a safety cap for covering the discharge opening, the safety cap connected by a cord to the dispensing valve, wherein the dispensing valve has an automatic retraction system for the earth cable and/or the cord of said safety cap.

Abstract: The invention relates to a dispensing valve for dispensing liquids into a reservoir container, with a main valve and with an operating lever designed for opening the main valve against a force biasing the main valve into the closed position, wherein the valve actuation mechanism has a continuous characteristic with a smooth profile, with which, when subjecting the operating lever to an actuation force at the start of a valve opening stroke, a different opening force is exerted on the main valve than when subjecting the operating lever to the same actuation force during the later course of the valve opening stroke.

Abstract: A fuel hose nozzle for filling a tank having a filler the tank with liquefied petroleum gas has a tubular valve housing extending along an axis and having an outer end, a tubular valve guide axially shiftable in the valve housing between a front position and a rear position and forming an outlet port adjacent the outer end, and a valve in the housing movable between an open position permitting fluid flow into the valve guide toward the outlet end and a closed position preventing such flow. A valve piston in the valve guide and axially fixed in the valve housing is engaged in the front position of the valve guide with the port to block flow through same. A fitting sleeve surrounding and axially shiftable on the valve housing has at the outer end an end fitting complementary to the tank filler neck.
