Device for preventing the overfilling of a fuel tank (1) provided with a filler neck and a filling vent line (6), an operational vent line (11), which leads to the outside or to a collecting tank, opening into the fuel tank above the opening into the filling vent line, in which operational vent line there is connected a valve device (13) which is closed during filling of the fuel tank and is open in the remaining time, the valve device having a valve closing member (13') which can be engaged with a valve seat (19') in the direction leading away from the fuel tank, is preloaded into the open position and is bridged, at least in the blocked state, by a flow-restricting partial-flow path (14), the valve seat (19') for its part being movably mounted, forming a pressure relief valve clearance (25) with an inner shoulder (24) of the valve device (13), and being preloaded into the closed position and in the direction of the valve closing member (13').

1. In a fuel tank having a filler neck for introducing fuel into the fuel tank through a first opening and having a second opening above the first opening communicating with a vent line, a device for preventing over filling of the fuel tank which comprises an operational vent line, the operational vent line includes a valve device which is closed at least during the filling of the fuel tank, the valve device comprising a valve closing member which engages a valve seat in a flow direction loading away from the fuel tank and is preloaded into an open position and is by-passed, at least when closed, by a flow-restricting partial-flow path, wherein the valve seat is moveably mounted and forms a pressure relief valve clearance with an inner shoulder of the valve device and is preloaded into a closed position in the direction of the valve closing member, the pressure relief valve clearance in opened to prevent over pressurizing of the fuel tank when the pressure drop across the flow-restricting partial-flow path exceeds a predetermined value.
