A vent shut-off assembly configured to manage venting on a fuel tank configured to deliver fuel to an internal combustion engine includes a first liquid vapor discriminator (LVD), a main housing, a first poppet valve assembly, a pump and an actuator assembly. The first LVD is disposed in the fuel tank. The main housing selectively vents to a carbon canister. The first poppet valve assembly has a first poppet valve arranged in the main housing. The pump selectively pumps liquid fuel from the main housing. The actuator assembly is at least partially housed in the main housing and includes a cam assembly having a cam shaft that includes a first cam and a second cam. The first cam has a profile that one of opens and closes the first poppet valve fluidly coupled to the first LVD.

Filter element (1) for filtering a substance, in particular a hydrocarbon, out of a fluid flow, in particular out of a fuel container, with a substrate material (2) on which a sorbing, in particular adsorbing, surface is formed on at least one side, at least in part, wherein the filter element (1) includes multiple mutually-opposite layers of the substrate material (2), wherein the individual layers are arranged so as to be mutually spaced, and wherein the filter element (1) includes at least one spacer (6) that is provided between two layers in each case.

An in-tank fuel pump assembly and mounting system is disclosed which may be configured for mounting inside a fuel tank. The assembly includes a pump housing, pump mounted to the housing, and pressure relief valve. The housing may comprise upper and lower pump housing units coupled together. The upper housing unit is configured for mounting to a tank opening, which in one implementation may be the fuel fill opening. The lower housing unit extends into the tank to approximately the bottom of the tank. A fuel fill fluid pathway is created through the housing for adding fuel to the tank while the pump assembly remains in situ. The upper housing unit may include a removable fuel cap. The pump housing may include an integral vapor trap.

A bellows includes a bellows structure portion on a tubular member. An internal space of the tubular member to an internal space of a fuel tank by the coupling port of the bellows. The bellows structure portion includes a first portion, a second portion, and a coupling portion. The first portion protrudes outward in the radial direction of the tubular member. The second portion is recessed inward in the radial direction relative to the first portion. In a cross section along the central axis of the tubular member, each of the first portion and the second portion is formed in an arc shape and the coupling portion makes the first portion couple to the second portion without any singularity. Here, the central angle of each of the first portion and the second portion of the bellows structure portion is greater than 180 degrees. With the result that the length of the bellows structure portion in the axial direction is increased over a predetermined range without the outermost diameter of the first portion and the innermost diameter of the second portion being significantly changed.

A fuel tank system for a vehicle includes a fuel tank, a fuel supply passage, a canister, an evaporated fuel gas supply passage, a communication passage, a backflow prevention device, first and second pressure measurement devices, and a control device. The fuel tank stores fuel supplied by the fuel supply passage. The canister adsorbs evaporated fuel gas generated in the fuel tank and supplied through the evaporated fuel gas supply passage. The backflow prevention device is provided in a pipe line of the fuel supply passage, and prevents a backflow of the fuel from the fuel tank. The first and second pressure measurement devices respectively measure pressures in the fuel supply passage and the evaporated fuel gas supply passage. The control device diagnoses the communication passage as being blocked when a difference between pressure values measured by the first and second pressure measurement devices exceeds a predetermined value.

An apparatus is provided for purging fuel evaporation gas in a fuel system. The apparatus increases an amount of fuel evaporation gas that is desorbed from a canister during driving of an engine, and thus prevents fuel evaporation gas adsorbed to the canister from being discharged to the atmosphere.

A particulate filtration device is suggested, comprising an inlet for an inflow of a gas stream which is particle-laden, an outlet for an outflow of the gas stream having a significantly reduced particulate load, a main filter section, which is arranged within a flow path of the gas stream between the inlet and the outlet and which comprises a filtration medium, and a prefilter chamber, which is arranged upstream of the main filter section and which comprises an inertial filter element, having several perforations, wherein the perforations of the inertial filter element are arranged within the flow path of the gas stream in such a way that when the flow path of the gas stream is passing through the perforations, an inertial separation of the particulates from the mean flow path of the gas stream is achieved.

An apparatus for preventing fuel overflow of a vehicle fuel tank includes: a valve unit including a valve body, a housing configured to cover a lower part of the valve body, a float mounted on the valve body and configured to slide up and down, a vapor line opened and closed according to a movement of the float, and a fuel inlet hole; a cover unit coupled to and enveloping the housing, the cover unit having a plurality of windows along an outer circumferential surface at a height corresponding to the fuel inlet hole, thereby being formed to allow the fuel to be introduced into the valve unit; and a shielding unit mounted on the cover unit to shield open windows, the shielding unit able to rotate along a turning direction of the vehicle to form an inflow path of the fuel flowing into the fuel inlet hole.

An indicator is provided in a vehicle for indicating necessity of change of a fuel vapor absorber in a venting line of a vehicle tank, especially a methanol tank for fuel cell vehicles.

The present disclosure relates to a fuel tank isolation valve of a vehicle, wherein the first armature and the second armature are connected in such a manner that there is no clearance therebetween, and a spring compression amount securing groove is formed on the upper surface of the guide. In a preferred finished valve assembly state, the position of the first armature in a valve-off state can be constant, and the movement of the first armature does not significantly occur, thereby noise, vibration, and wear are inhibited or prevented.
