A ventilation control valve for a fuel tank is disposed in a ventilation passage which communicates an inside and an outside of a fuel tank. The ventilation control valve includes a float that floats on a liquid level of a fuel and moves up and down. The ventilation control valve includes a valve mechanism which switches a passage sectional area of the ventilation passage in conjunction with the float to an open state and a restricted state in which the passage sectional area is restricted from the opened state. The float has a volume chamber in which volume changes in accordance with a vertical movement of the float. A control gap as a flow rate adjusting mechanism is formed between the cylindrical wall of the float and the cylindrical wall of a case. Due to the control gap, the volume chamber functions as a damper.

Provided is a liquid discharge valve including a housing configured with an inlet port coupleable to a liquid line, a liquid outlet port, an inlet chamber accommodating a pressure responsive closing mechanism disposed between said inlet port and said liquid outlet port and configured for selectively opening a liquid flow path therebetween, a control chamber being in flow communication with the inlet chamber via a restricted fluid passage, a gas operated valve being in flow communication with the control chamber, and a discharge pilot valve being in flow communication with the control chamber.

A vent control valve for a fuel tank controls a ventilation between a fuel tank and an outside, and includes: an annular valve seat defined in a case; a movable valve object which is movable relative to the valve seat; a seal component having an annular plate shape and held by the movable valve object to be seated on or separated from the valve seat to open and close a passage for ventilation; and an annular ridge part defined in the movable valve object or the seal component such that the movable valve object and the seal component are in contact with each other on an annular seal line.

A valve apparatus for use in a liquid tank, includes a casing, an extractor, and a float. The casing defines a main chamber, the main chamber having an inlet orifice and at least one outlet orifice. The extractor includes at least one wall member extending substantially across the main chamber and being adapted for extracting droplets present in a vapour stream coming from the liquid tank and entering the main chamber via the inlet orifice. The float includes a closure element capable of closing off the outlet orifice(s), the float being slidably mounted along the at least one wall member.

A vent control valve includes: a first case shaped in a tube that forms a passage for ventilation; a movable valve object arranged in the first case to open and close the passage; an inner case arranged in the first case to support the movable valve object; a second case disposed at a lower end of the first case; a first connection mechanism defined between the first case and the inner case, the first connection mechanism connecting the first case and the inner case with each other; and a second connection mechanism defined between the first case and the second case, the second connection mechanism connecting the first case and the second case with each other.

The mounting structure of a fuel device is for mounting the fuel device, which includes a plurality of components, on a baffle plate for suppressing waving of liquid fuel stored in a fuel tank. One of the components of the fuel device is integrally formed, as a mounting portion, with the baffle plate. The remaining components of the fuel device are mounted, as a mounted portion, on the mounting portion of the baffle plate.

Apparatuses, systems, and methods are disclosed for a valve. An apparatus includes a valve that includes an actuator and a first magnetic material. The apparatus includes a container that includes an inlet and a float assembly. The actuator is actuated to one of open the valve at a first position and close the valve at a second position responsive to a magnetic force between a second magnetic material and a first magnetic material based on a position of the float assembly within the container.

There is provided a valve device including: a housing in which a valve chamber is provided on a lower side and a ventilation chamber is provided on an upper side via a partition wall, the partition wall being formed with a valve hole; a float valve; and a pressure adjusting valve. An accommodation portion is provided in a protruding manner from a surface of the partition wall. An accommodating space configured to accommodate the pressure adjusting valve is formed on an inner side of the accommodation portion, and an outer space is formed on an outer side of the accommodating space. The accommodation portion is formed with an opening through which the accommodating space and the outer space communicate with each other.

A control valve assembly may include a housing, an inlet, an outlet, and a plurality of thermostatic control valves biased toward a closed position and arranged within the housing between the inlet and the outlet. The thermostatic control valves may each be associated with separate respective flow paths between the inlet and the outlet and have different operating temperatures. The valves may be configured to open at their respective operating temperatures and remain open unless the fluid falls below their respective operating temperature such that when multiple thermostatic control valves are open the amount of fluid flowing through the control valve is equal to the addition of the amount of fluid flowing through each valve. The operating temperatures and the flow rates of the thermostatic control valves may be selected to limit the passage of pathogens through the control valve assembly. A degassing valve may also be provided.

A first casing has an internal cylindrical region defined as a floating/sinking guiding region for a float valve. The wall that forms the cylindrical region includes ventilation windows. A second casing surrounds the first casing to form, about the periphery of the first casing, a ventilation passage that guides fuel vapor in a fuel tank to the ventilation windows through a region that surrounds the first casing. In addition, the second casing surrounds the first casing from a first connection hole side to form, about the periphery of the first casing, a first ventilation passage that guides the fuel vapor in the fuel tank to the ventilation windows through the region that surrounds the first casing, and a second ventilation passage that has a larger passage cross-sectional area than the first ventilation passage. These ventilation passages stabilize floating/sinking operation of the float.
