A breather cap assembly is configured to be connected to a stand-tube used in a watering system. When the watering system is in normal operation, the breather cap assembly is configured to allow for air to flow between the outside the assembly and the stand-tube. The breather cap assembly also provides for structure which acts as a baffle to minimize the introduction of foreign material from outside the breather cap assembly into the stand-tube. When the watering system is in flushing operation, the breather cap assembly is configured to seal off the stand-tube in order to minimize the possibility of water leaving the stand-tube. The breather cap assembly further also provides for structure which acts as a baffle to collect and retain a majority of any water that does leave the stand-tube during a flushing operation.

A fuel cutoff valve has: a valve mechanism that cuts off a communication between a fuel tank and a canister; an upper space defined above the valve mechanism; a tube body that has a tube passage to be communicated with the upper space and introduces a fuel gas to the canister; a retaining chamber defined by a first fuel shielding portion and a second fuel shielding portion to retain a liquid fuel stored in the upper space; a liquid reservoir portion defined between the tube body and the first fuel shielding portion to store the liquid fuel flowing out of the retaining chamber; and a communication portion through which the retaining chamber communicates with the liquid reservoir portion; wherein the communication portion is formed at a position deviated from the tube body so as not to overlap the tube body, when the tube body is seen in its axial direction.

Provided is a roll over fuel-vapor valve is provided including a housing defining a valve having a valve inlet port extending through a wall of the housing and a valve outlet port and a float member disposed between the inlet port and the outlet port and being displaceable between an open position and a closed position the hosing further comprising a fluid flow channel extending along a top portion thereof and having a first end and a second end, wherein the outlet port extending into the channel such that in the open position fluid flow is facilitated between the valve inlet port and the channel.

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.

It is disclosed a FLVV including: an upper cover provided in the fuel tank, and having an outlet duct; a casing coupled to the upper cover; the float, which is elastically provided inside the casing so as to be movable upward and downward, has a first valve seat provided on the upper surface of one side thereof so as to open and close a first outlet port by principle of a lever, and has a recessed surface formed at one side of the upper surface thereof; the plate elastically provided by a second spring at the recessed surface formed at the float, so as to open and close a second outlet port while moving upward and downward; and a lower cover closing the lower part of the casing and having the float elastically provided by a first spring.

In at least some implementations, an assembly includes a float having a void with an inlet leading into the void in a first direction, and at least one retention surface that is not parallel to the first direction and a hinge received at least partially within the void. The hinge has at least one retention feature that cooperates with the at least one retention feature of the float to inhibit removal of the hinge from the float in a second direction opposite to the first direction, and the hinge is formed from a polymeric material. In at least some implementations, the hinge has a melting point similar to or lower than the melting point of the material of the float, and the hinge is formed separately from and is pressed into the void in the float.

A fuel shutoff valve includes a valve, a float, and an auxiliary member. The valve is configured to open or close an air passage of a fuel tank. The float floats on fuel and moves in a valve closing direction to close the valve, or in a valve opening direction opposite to the valve closing direction to open the valve. The auxiliary member has a predetermined weight, and abuts on the float to apply a weight on the float in the valve opening direction, or separating from the float not to apply the weight on the float in the valve closing direction.

Provided is a roll over fuel-vapor valve is provided including a housing defining a valve having a valve inlet port extending through a wall of the housing and a valve outlet port and a float member disposed between the inlet port and the outlet port and being displaceable between an open position and a closed position the hosing further comprising a fluid flow channel extending along a top portion thereof and having a first end and a second end, wherein the outlet port extending into the channel such that in the open position fluid flow is facilitated between the valve inlet port and the channel.

One embodiment provides a valve device for fuel tank. The valve device includes: a housing in which a valve chamber and a ventilation chamber are divided by a partition wall having a first and second openings; a vapor discharge outlet communicating with the ventilation chamber; first and second float valves vertically movably housed in the valve chamber to close the first and second openings, respectively; and a recess portion defined in a part of the ventilation chamber correspondingly with the first opening. A passage is provided to communicate the discharge outlet with the recess portion. And, a first wall portion is provided around an end of the passage on a side of the recess portion so as to block the fuel that flows out of the second opening into the first opening from heading to the third opening.
