The present invention relates to an all in one fuel tank assembly, and a process of manufacturing the same, for use in commercial vehicles, and more particularly, to an all in one fuel tank assembly that allows multiple components to be manufactured as a single integral structure, such as a single extruded device including a draw tube, a return tube, a fuel sender device, and a vent, for example.

Isolation flange
11285801 · 2022-03-29 ·

The present invention relates to an isolation flange for a fuel tank assembly, and a process of manufacturing the same, for use in commercial vehicles, and more particularly, to an isolation flange for a fuel tank assembly that provides a crumple zone positioned between a component receiving base and a wall of a fuel tank, such that the crumple zone insulates the component receiving base from deformation during drop tests and harsh environmental driving conditions to which the fuel tank is subjected.

Method of manufacturing a plastic tank

A method for producing a plastic tank includes preparing a tank wall as a hot extrudate. A reinforcing sheet is then attached to at least one region of the outer layer of the hot extrudate. After introducing the attached reinforcing sheet and the hot extrudate into a shaping tool, the shaping tool performs shaping of the hot extrudate and the attached reinforcing sheet to form the tank wall, while simultaneously enhancing the attachment of the reinforcing sheet to the tank wall.

INTERNAL SUPPORTING PART STRUCTURE FOR PLASTIC TANK

An internal support part structure for a plastic tank includes a support rod and end surface components disposed at two ends of the support rod. The support rod is made of a first material. An outer surface of the end surface component is covered by a second material. An outer edge of the end surface component has a regular or irregular shape. The structure resolves a problem that a second material wrapping a first material and connected to an inner wall of a plastic tank may be easily pulled off the inner wall. When a fuel tank is impacted, the support rod of the structure breaks first, to protect the surface of the fuel tank from damage.

VEHICLE TANK AND MANUFACTURING METHOD FOR A VEHICLE TANK

A vehicle tank, in particular for holding a fuel, in particular gasoline and/or diesel fuel, having: a first and a second partial shell, wherein the first and second partial shell are connected to one another in a partial shell joining area, and a barrier layer substantially, preferably completely, covering an outer surface of the first partial shell and an outer surface of the second partial shell, respectively, wherein the barrier layer spans the partial shell joining area on an outer surface of the vehicle tank.
