Abstract: A fuel tank lid includes a lid part closing an opening of a fuel tank, and an internal terminal electrically connecting a pump provided inside the fuel tank with a drive circuit driving the pump. The lid part includes an inserted part inserted into the opening, a storage part located outside the fuel tank and storing the drive circuit in a hollow space of the storage part, and a connection part located outside the fuel tank and connecting the inserted part and the storage part. The fuel tank lid further includes a discharge part discharging a fuel vapor that tries to travel along an interface between the internal terminal and the lid part and enter the hollow space, to an external atmosphere, and a protection part covering the portion exposed from the lid part by the presence of the discharge part to protect the portion from a liquid.

Abstract: A fuel tank lid includes a lid part and a terminal. The lid part includes an inserted part inserted into an opening of a fuel tank, and a storage part storing a drive circuit. The terminal has a central portion covered by the inserted part and the storage part, a first end connected to a pump, and a second end connected to the drive circuit. The storage part includes a side wall that has a first opening and a second opening, an upper closure part that closes the first opening, and a lower closure part that closes the second opening. The fuel tank lid further includes a discharge structure positioned vertically lower than the upper closure part and discharging a fuel vapor that has travelled along an interface between the terminal and the lid part and entered a hollow space of the storage part, to an external atmosphere.
