Abstract: Fuel tank with a collecting device arranged in its filler inlet for collecting fuel vapours when refuelling. 
<??>On a known collecting device an automatically closing control valve is built into the filler inlet above the maximum fuel level, which valve is located between a fuel vapour line leading from the fuel tank to an activated charcoal filter and opens this line as soon as the petrol pump filling nozzle is introduced into the filler inlet. The control valve is mechanically opened by a sealing flap which closes a guide duct inside the filler inlet receiving the filling nozzle when the flap is swung into its open position by the filling nozzle, thereby switching a valve element of the control valve into its open position. 
<??>The collecting device according to the invention is intended to simplify both the construction of the control valve and the means needed for its actuation. This is achieved in that the sealing flap at the same time forms the valve element of the control valve.

Abstract: The apparatus enables a door to be moved into, out of and across an opening in a structure. 
     A motor vehicle has upper, lower and intermediate guides (1, 7, 12) by which a door(6) is suspended and guided for movement by way of guide members(5′, 8, 15) engaged with the guides. Curves(1′, 7′) at the front of guides (1, 7)guide the door into the opening. A door plate (14 and arm 16) constitute a hinge and the arm(12) is pivoted to the intermediate guide member (15). 
     When the door is in the opening the arm (16) prevents downward pivoting of a carrier (19) on the intermediate guide member (15) whereby a roller(21) on the carrier is engaged with an abutment end(22) of the intermediate guide (12), preventing the intermediate guide member (15) engaged with it from sliding rearwardly along that guide (12). Initially , during opening, the curves of the upper and lower guides (1, 7) and the hinge (14, 16) cause movement of the door laterally out of the opening and to the rear. When the arm(16) clears the carrier (19) the latter can pivot down to allow the door to slide rearwardly. During closing, the carrier (19) prevents a forward pivoting of the arm(l6) until the roller (21) rises to engage the abutment end (22) positioning and freeing the door for movement into the opening. The door is latched in open and closed positions.

Abstract: An apparatus for combining a display image with the field of view of a viewer. Light from either a night vision system (14) of a CRT (12) is directed into an eyepiece (12). The eyepiece (12) magnifies and focuses the image into a combiner (30). The combiner (30) consists of an elongated optical element with two parallel sides (36) and (38) and two concave reflective surfaces (32) and (34) at each end. Light entering the combiner (30) is reflected off the first reflective surface (32) and then is reflected back and forth between the sides of the combiner (36) and (38) and then onto the second reflective surface (32). 
     Light reflected off the second reflective surface (32) is combined with light entering from the field of view of the viewer through a prism element (44). The result is that the display image is superimposed in the field of view of the viewer. The system is light in weight, does not protrude significantly from the user's head, introduces minimal distortion and offers a wide field view.
