Fuel system having a valve upstream of a jet pump
A fuel system includes a fuel reservoir configured to be located within the fuel tank such that the fuel reservoir defines a fuel reservoir volume which is a subset of a fuel tank volume; a fuel pump configured to pump fuel from within the fuel reservoir volume to the fuel consuming device through a fuel supply line; a jet pump configured to 1) receive excess fuel, through a fuel return line, which had been supplied to the fuel consuming device through the fuel supply line and 2) aspirate fuel into the fuel reservoir volume from the fuel tank volume; and a valve which allows fuel flow in both directions between the fuel return line and the jet pump when a differential pressure across the valve is greater than or equal to a predetermined threshold.

MIXTURE ENTRAINMENT DEVICE
An example injector includes a first conduit defining a first flow path including a first choke for a first fluid and a second conduit defining a second flow path including a second choke for a second fluid. The second choke is defined by a converging region upstream and a diverging region downstream of the second choke. The example injector further includes a mixing region after both the diverging region of the second flow path and the first choke and configured to receive the first fluid the second fluid, and an outlet configured to allow the first fluid and the second fluid to exit the mixing region. The first and second chokes are configured to allow a constant mass flow of the first and second fluids, respectively, to flow into the mixing region independent of a pressure at the outlet.
Suction jet pump with sealing of the injection mold installation opening by a metal ball fixed with plastic deformation
A method for the production of a suction jet pump delivering fuel into or out of a fuel tank, wherein the suction jet pump has a flow channel and a nozzle, and wherein the flow channel forms a feed line to the nozzle and the flow channel is formed in one piece with the nozzle, the method including, in the following order: placing a mold core into a matrix to produce the suction jet pump by injection molding and form a cavity between the mold core and the matrix; encapsulating the mold core and filling the cavity formed between mold core and matrix with a plastic; removing the mold core through an installation opening, arranged opposite the nozzle, in the flow channel; and closing the installation opening by thermal deformation, in the edge region of the installation opening, of the plastic used for the production of the suction jet pump.
