Zusammenfassung: | A tube is arranged for conveying fuel in a vehicle fuel delivery module (10 fig 1), comprising first and second ends 26, 28 and a portion 30 extending between the ends 26, 28. The portion 30 is delimited by a longitudinal wall 24 having annular corrugations 32 and comprising at least one first part presenting a first thickness and at least one second part presenting a second thickness. The first thickness is thinner than the second thickness so that the tube 22 expands when fuel flows therein. The invention mitigates noise resulting from pressure pulses. A tube assembly may comprise a shell (40 fig 4) fitted around the longitudinal wall 24 and mounted movably between two positions and provided with complementary pieces (42, 44 fig 4) for snap-in fixation. |
