DISCHARGE VALVE FOR A FUEL TANK Abstract of the Disclosure A discharge valve for the fuel tank of a vehicle is provided with two inlet ports that are connected by lines to suction ports in the bottom region of the fuel tank, as well as at least one outlet port connected to a fuel pump. Within the discharge valve blocking means are provided that can close the normally open connecting channels between inlet ports and outlet ports. The blocking means can be controlled by a body that moves under the influence of gravitational or inertia forces, preferably a ball. A simple, cost effective assembly that is easily manufactured results from the fact that the ball is arranged between at least two abutments of a cage that can be moved by the ball. Here the distance between the abutments is greater than the corresponding dimension of the ball. The cage is connected with the blocking means in such a way that the blocking means can be actuated by movement of the cage.
