Abstract: A safety mounting device for a fuel-pump nozzle includes a vertical passage which attaches the nozzle receptacle to the pump casing. The major portion of the passage is located within, but sealed from the casing, but upper and lower vents open outside the casing to induce a throughflow of air which prevents any explosive gas mixtures from the nozzle from penetrating the casing. A closed or vented chamber may be provided between the receptacle and the passage.

Abstract: A water drainage spout, especially for hollow spaces in motor vehicle structures, which is so arranged that any water present in the hollow spaces is able to flow off by gravity when the vehicle stands still or drives, and in which the area serving the water drainage is surrounded on its side facing the atmosphere by a circumferential apron; the area serving the water drainage is constructed funnel-shaped and is closed off by a bottom adapted to be pushed through while water discharge openings are provided in the wall of the funnel distributed over the circumference thereof, which extend to this bottom.

Abstract: An installation for accommodating a storage battery in a closed-off space, such as a passenger or luggage space of a motor vehicle, which includes a covering hood that holds back gases and acids escaping from the battery cells; the covering hood thereby forms the cover of a trough surrounding the storage battery and abuts sealingly at the top side of the trough so that a container is created which is gas-tight with respect to the interior of the vehicle; the connecting cables for the battery are led out of the container in a sealed manner while a recess with a discharge opening is provided in the bottom of the container which is in communication with the free atmosphere.
