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.

A valve device includes: a housing having a valve chamber and a ventilation chamber divided by a dividing wall, the dividing wall having an opening, and the housing having a discharge opening formed at a peripheral surface on the ventilation chamber side; a float valve coming into and out of contact with the opening; and a fuel vapor pipe connected with the discharge opening outside the housing. The ventilation chamber is provided with a tubular wall which communicates with the discharge opening and which extends from the discharge opening toward the inside of the ventilation chamber. The tubular wall has a surface on the dividing wall side which is provided with a ventilation hole communicating with the ventilation chamber. An end portion on the extending direction side of the tubular wall is closed.

There is provided a valve device for a fuel tank. A housing is provided with a valve chamber and a vent chamber defined via a partition wall. The partition wall is provided with an opening. A float valve is received in the valve chamber to be movable up and down. The float valve includes a lower member and an upper member. The upper member includes a top portion, an outside wall extending from the top portion, and an elastic engaging piece configured to engage with an engaged portion of the lower member. The elastic engaging piece extends from a location on the back surface of the top portion, which is located inward from the outside wall, and is configured to elastically return after being bent in an outward radial direction of the upper member and thus to engage with the engaged portion of the lower member.

A fuel tank valve apparatus includes a valve port configured to allow inside and outside of a fuel tank to communicate with each other, a valve chamber formed under the valve port, a float body disposed movably up and down inside the valve chamber, and a seal member having elasticity with respect to the valve port and mounted on an upper portion of the float body. The seal member includes a main body configured to close the valve port, a combining portion with respect to the upper portion of the float body, and an extending portion laterally extending from the main body. The float body includes a combined portion combined with the combining portion with up-and-down movements of the seal member allowed in a predetermined range, and a hook portion located above the extending portion.

There is provided a valve device, including: a housing; a float valve; and a seal member. An opening portion includes a first region, and a second region. The seal member includes a first cover portion, and a second cover portion. The second cover portion includes a support portion, a wide portion, and a narrow portion. In a state where the seal member is retained and supported by the support portion with respect to the float valve, a width of the wide portion is set such that a tip end of the second region is covered, and that the second region of the opening portion is not exposed out of the seal member even in a state where the seal member is maximally displaced in a radial direction and; or a peripheral direction of the housing with respect to the opening portion.

In a valve device for a fuel tank, a fuel liquid level of filling-up fuel feed and an allowable fuel amount of additional fuel feed can be easily and appropriately changed by replacing only a part of components forming the valve device. A first valve chamber has a structure of positioning an open end below a support portion of a first float having a passage portion for a fluid. A second valve chamber includes a support portion of a second float having a passage portion for the fluid. The first valve chamber and the second valve chamber are formed by fitting a lower-portion including the support portion and the open end of the first float and the support portion of the second float relative to an upper-portion including a first valve opening and a second valve opening.

In a valve device for a fuel tank, a condition of blowing out a fuel to an outside of a fuel tank can be prevented as little as possible. The valve device includes a valve opening for communicating inside and outside of the fuel tank; a valve chamber formed below the valve opening; and a float disposed inside the valve chamber to be movable up and down, and the valve chamber has a structure of positioning an open end below a support portion of the float having a passage portion for a fluid. An orifice is formed in the support portion, and by a notch portion formed in the valve chamber, an entrance of an orifice-ventilation path communicating with the orifice is formed at a side lower than the support portion and at a side upper than the open end.

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.

An exhaust after-treatment system associated with a diesel engine includes a diesel exhaust fluid storage unit. The storage unit includes a diesel exhaust fluid tank and a vent system coupled to the tank and configured to regulate flow of air into the tank and fluid vapor out of the tank.

A fuel tank vent shutoff valve is provided with a leak countermeasure for preventing liquid fuel leaking from the vent shutoff valve into an evaporative emissions canister. In one embodiment, the vent shutoff valve includes a case disposed over a valve body. The case includes a floor surface surrounding an opening and a cover disposed over the case. The case also includes a flange structure extending away from the floor surface towards an inside surface of the cover. The inside surface includes an annular wall aligned over the opening and extending towards the floor surface of the case. The annular wall includes a first section having a first height that is greater than a second height of a second section. A free end of the first section extends past a free end of the flange structure of the case to prevent fuel from leaking into the evaporative emissions canister.
