Why can't the position of the car tank mouth always be unified? The reason turned out to be this

I believe that my friends have heard this story. A female driver drove to the gas station to go for fuel. He opened the right side of the tanker but discovered that the tank port was on the right side. He did not open a large circle around. The location, so it has been around not know how many laps around, it's difficult to properly refueling ... ... I have to say that many friends in life are often met with such a puppet, then in the end the car's fuel tank mouth is on the left or right Better?

In fact, for the above female driver, Xiao Bian would like to silently dump the car back to not it!

Then everyone went back to the question above. The reason why the female driver was so tangled when he was refueling was actually because the female driver did not figure out the specific location of the fuel tank port of his vehicle when entering the gas station.

Actually, it is understandable for a woman driver to be ignorant about the location of the fuel tank mouth. After all, not every tank's fuel tank mouth is the same. Most German car tank ports are on the right side, such as Volkswagen and Audi. BMW. The fuel tank ports of many Japanese cars are on the left, such as Honda and Toyota. So the filling station at the gas station is also divided into two sides.

Why do you have to refuel?

Actually, there are three major factors that determine whether or not an oil tank port is to be divided. It is believed that after the tanker's mouth must have a unified friend who has read the following three factors, he believes that there will be a change in the idea.

1, body weight

The technical requirements of these vehicle manufacturers, such as the German and Japanese, are relatively high, so they are very rigorous in product manufacturing, and in particular pay attention to the balance of the body weight. Adding a steering system to the front engine will make the whole vehicle heavier. Therefore, most cars will use the rear tank, which means that the tank will be placed under the rear seat. Then with the driver's weight, the fuel tank can be used to balance the difference, so the tank and driver are in a diagonal position.

The driving positions of the European and Japanese cars are different, which leads to a fuel tank in the right rear tank.

2, different driving directions

In fact, the position of the fuel tank port is closely related to the driving direction of different countries. Most European countries are driving on the right, and the fuel tank port is set on the right side to facilitate the driver's refueling. However, Japan and most of the Asian countries are driving on the left, so the tank port will be set on the left hand side.

But many of my friends will have questions. The driving direction of South Korea and China is the same to the right, but why is the fuel tank on the left? In fact, I am also very curious, and later saw that users replied that the Korean car is a plagiarism of a Japanese car, so it directly ignored the direction of its own country, which is the original model of the consequences of copying!

3, road safety

The design of the fuel tank port is not only for people to facilitate fueling, but also takes into account the key factor of road safety. For example, in the past, people were fueling with oil drums. If it is a right-wing country, the If the driver's seat is on the same side, the risk of being hit by a vehicle is also a risk when refueling.

So from a safety point of view, the designers put the position of the fuel tank on the opposite side of the driver's seat, which is what we called the diagonal, so as to avoid accidents when the driver refuels. .

How to determine the tank port position?

Since many drivers do not know how to determine the position of the tank port, the above-mentioned woman's situation will also appear. In fact, the location of the tank port can be known by directly observing the arrows on the dashboard.

The arrow pointing to the right represents the tank port in your right hand position, but drive to the left refuel lane.

to sum up

In fact, at the time when many Japanese cars were introduced into the country, in order to facilitate people's travel, only the position of the steering wheel was moved. However, the tank movement is related to the entire engine, so the position of the fuel tank is not adjusted, and it becomes the same position as the driver.

So after reading this, I believe that we should be able to accurately determine the location of the fuel tank, in short, determine the correct access to the gas station!
