  • Patent number: 5487418
    Abstract: An improved construction for a vehicle gas cap includes a threaded engagement portion, a main body for sealing the gas tank throat and for allowing manipulation of the improved cap, a disk, and a hinged C-clamp attached to the main body. The disk is dimensioned such that it allows for the retaining of the trigger of a gas pump handle in an operable position when fitted into the gas pump handle trigger slot. The C-clamp portion is dimensioned such that it allows for the retaining of the trigger of a gas pump handle in an operable position when fitted thereover. The disk of the cap is the same height as the clamp portion's thickness, and allows for a flush surface overall when the C-clamp is folded down into a closed position.
