A valve device, a ventilation device having the valve device, and a motor vehicle tank device having the ventilation device. The connection between a valve inlet of the valve device and a tank outlet is to be opened and closed by the tank valve, and a connection between the inlet and the filler pipe outlet may be opened and closed by the filler pipe valve.

A valve assembly includes a seat separating a cavity of a valve body into a first cavity portion and a second cavity portion. The assembly includes a cover device separating the first cavity portion into a first pocket and a second pocket. The cover device defines at least one hole to provide fluid communication between an aperture of the seat and an outlet of the valve body via the hole. The cover device is movable between a rest position to restrict fluid communication between the aperture and the hole, and an actuated position to increase fluid communication between the aperture and the hole when a vacuum is created in the first cavity portion. The aperture is in direct fluid communication with the first pocket when in the actuated position. The outlet is in direct fluid communication with the second pocket when in the rest and actuated positions.

A fully-integrated flow-control module is designed to fit within a filler neck of a DEF tank that conforms to ISO (International Organization for Standardization) Standard 22241-4:2009(E). The flow-control module includes a breather cap that locks the flow-control module within the mouth of the ISO filler neck. A spring-biased valve piston, which is controlled by a bleed path within a bleed and float body, opens and closes to control fluid flow into the DEF tank. A fluid level float is mounted on a control rod. The control rod and a bleed valve poppet are rigidly secured to a connector beam. When fluid levels in the tank raise the float, the bleed valve poppet seals a bleed circuit escape port, thereby enabling the valve piston to close, increase fluid pressure at the nozzle, and cause the nozzle to shut off.

Tank for a liquid solution based on water and urea which is suitable for being combined with a selective catalytic reduction system. The tank comprises: a container including an upper wall; a filling pipe union which is positioned on the upper wall of the container and which is suitable for introducing the liquid solution; a lower opening, from which the liquid solution being introduced passes into the container and which protrudes with respect to the upper wall towards the interior of the container; a closure float which is positioned in the container and which is connected to the lower opening and which is configured so as to raise and close the lower opening once the liquid solution in the container reaches a predetermined level.

A fuel tank with a venting system includes a flap for closing and opening a vent made in the tank. The flap is coupled to a float. The flap includes a valve coupled to a second float mounted in a hinged manner in the tank so that the valve adopts a closed position, being pushed by the second float when the level of fuel in the tank reaches a certain threshold, and an open venting position in order to prevent overpressure within the tank, being driven by the second float when the level of fuel is below the threshold and the force exerted by the internal pressure on the valve is less than the sum of the forces exerted on the valve by the atmospheric pressure and by the weight of the second float.

A fully-integrated, flow-control module for top-fill fuel tanks is designed to operate with a fuel line attached that supplies fuel under constant pressure. A main flow control valve within the flow-control module closes automatically when the fuel tank is full, and automatically opens when the fuel level drops a certain amount below the full level. A spring-biased valve plunger of the main flow control valve has a bleed aperture that diverts a small amount of incoming fuel to a bleed path that is controlled by a fuel level float that operates on a lever arm that either opens or closes the bleed path. When closed, fuel pressure beneath the valve plunger increases sufficiently that the plunger biasing spring is able to exert a force sufficient to close the valve plunger. Bleed path control hysteresis prevents rapid cycling of the main flow control valve.

There is provided a valve device, including: a housing in which, via a partition wall, a valve chamber is provided below the partition wall and a vent chamber is provided above the partition wall, and a vent hole through which the valve chamber and the vent chamber communicate with each other is provided in the partition wall; and a float valve. A valve seat is formed on a side of the valve chamber of the partition wall, and an opening is provided on an inner side of the valve seat. The opening includes a first opening and a second opening extending outward in a slit shape from an outer periphery of the first opening. A seal part having elasticity that contacts with and separates from the valve seat to close and open the first opening and the second opening, is disposed above the float valve.

A fuel device assembly including a valve assembly and a baffle plate, the valve assembly including a valve cover and a first weld plate provided at an upper end of the valve cover coupling the valve assembly to an interior-facing surface a fuel tank of a vehicle, the baffle plate including a body having a plurality of spaced apart holes formed therein and a housing member extending from the body for receiving and lockingly engaging the valve assembly.

A valve device includes: a housing; a float valve; and a float valve support portion. The float valve support portion includes a support wall, a side wall, a first slit formed in the support wall, a second slit formed in the side wall, and an elastic piece defined by the first slit and the second slit. The elastic piece includes a first extending portion extending along the side wall, and a second extending portion extending from the first extending portion and capable of coming into contact with a bottom surface of the float valve.

A valve assembly includes a case, a bottom cap provided at a lower end of the case, a lower float provided within an open interior of the case, an upper float provided within the open interior of the case between the lower float and the upper end of the case, and a biasing member biasing the lower float and the upper float toward the upper end of the case. The lower float includes a canister having an upper end and a rim extending from the upper end of the canister. A pair of openings is formed within the rim adjacent the upper end of the canister and partially defined by a curvilinear edge. The upper float includes a pair of legs, each leg received within a corresponding opening.
