Fuel shut-off valve

A fuel shut-off valve includes a housing, a float valve, and a tubular fuel inflow portion. The housing includes a communicating opening that communicates with the outside of the fuel tank, a tubular portion that extends in a vertical direction, and an inlet for liquid fuel located in the tubular portion at a position below the communicating opening. The float valve selectively closes and opens the communicating opening by moving vertically. The fuel inflow portion is provided outside the tubular portion and has a first end having an inflow port for liquid fuel and a second end connected to the inlet. The inflow port is opened at a position that is above the inlet and spaced outward in a radial direction from the tubular portion. The housing includes a discharge port for discharging liquid fuel in the housing.

10890148 · 2021-01-12 · ·

Fuel pump for an internal combustion engine, wherein the fuel pump has: an auxiliary tank designed to receive a fuel flow from a low-pressure fuel pump; a pumping device drawing the fuel from the auxiliary tank through a suction duct; a Venturi choke arranged along the suction duct; and a degasification duct, which originates in a ceiling of the auxiliary tank and leads to the middle of the Venturi choke.

FUEL MIXING DEVICES AND METHODS OF USE
20210002124 · 2021-01-07 · ·

A fuel mixer includes a first compartment, a second compartment, a third compartment, a plurality of cooling tubes, and at least one flow pipe. The second compartment is in fluid communication with the first compartment and is at least partially above the first compartment. The third compartment is in fluid communication with the first compartment and is at least partially above the first compartment. The plurality of cooling tubes are disposed in the second compartment and extend between the first compartment and the third compartment, thereby allowing fuel to flow from the first compartment to the third compartment. The at least one flow pipe is disposed in the second compartment and has an open top end, thereby allowing fuel to flow from the second compartment to the first compartment.

Saddled vehicle
10865707 · 2020-12-15 · ·

A saddled vehicle includes: a fuel injection valve mounted in a cylinder head from one side surface of the cylinder head and injecting fuel toward a combustion chamber; and a fuel pump that supplies fuel to the fuel injection valve in response to a generated pump pressure. The fuel pump is disposed in a space between main frames and a down frame and in the one side surface of the cylinder head. Accordingly, there is provided a layout of the fuel pump capable of sufficiently protecting the fuel pump without a need to restrict a position of an internal combustion engine.

Controller of fuel system for vehicle

A controller of a fuel system for a vehicle is provided in which heat is dissipated outside from a printed circuit board to cool the controller. The dissipated heat is utilized to maximize the efficiency of the purge operation using a canister by waste heat. The controller is integrated with an air filter for removing foreign substances from air to be suctioned into a canister, and is configured to realize heat exchange between air passing through the air filter and a motor driver.

Passive fuel additives dosing system

A passive fuel additives dosing system includes a membrane-based contactor within a cartridge, an additive within the membrane-based contactor, a fuel inlet to the cartridge and a fuel outlet from the cartridge. The membrane-based contactor is arranged within the cartridge such that, with fuel in the cartridge, a fuel contact area with the membrane-based contactor is dependent on a fuel flow rate to passively dispense a proportional amount of the additive into the fuel.

FUEL SUPPLY DEVICE OF ENGINE

A fuel supply device of an engine includes: a fuel tank; a fuel filter which is disposed in front of the fuel tank in a front-rear direction of a vehicle; a fuel pump which is disposed in front of the fuel filter in the front-rear direction of the vehicle; a first fuel supply pipe which connects the fuel tank and the fuel filter to each other; and a second fuel supply pipe which connects the fuel filter and the fuel pump to each other. A first connecting portion to which the first fuel supply pipe is connected is formed on a front portion of the fuel filter, and a second connecting portion to which the second fuel supply pipe is connected is formed on a rear portion of the fuel filter.

FUEL DELIVERY INJECTOR

A fuel delivery injector includes a housing, an inlet port fluidly coupled to a cavity to direct fuel vapor and liquid fuel into the cavity, and an outlet port fluidly coupled to the cavity to direct fuel vapor and liquid fuel out of the cavity. A magnetic assembly is fixedly positioned within the cavity, and a pumping assembly includes a bobbin and a piston. A return spring is coupled to the pumping assembly to bias the pumping assembly to a home position. A valve is positioned within the piston and is movable between an open position and a closed position. The liquid fuel entering the housing through the inlet port flows from the inlet port to the cavity and fuel vapor entering the housing through the inlet port is directed through a conduit to the outlet port.

VAPOR SEPARATOR WITH THERMOELECTRIC HEAT EXCHANGER
20200256293 · 2020-08-13 ·

In at least some implementations, a fuel vapor separator for an internal combustion engine includes a main body at least partially defining a chamber for holding fuel, a lid carried by the main body to close the chamber and at least partially define a vapor chamber above a level of fuel in the chamber, and a thermoelectric heat exchanger coupled to the main body. In at least some implementations, the main body is a thermally conductive polymeric material that is resistant to degradation or dimensional changes, and in some implementations, the main body may be formed from a metal.
