The present disclosure relates to an energy replenishment port assembly, comprising: a housing seal made of an elastic material; a housing having an installation port, the housing seal being arranged around an edge of the installation port and extending from a reverse side of the edge of the installation port; and a receiving port component comprising a receiving port, the receiving port component being detachably installed on the installation port. The housing seal is configured to being pressed against a vehicle body to sealingly install the housing onto the vehicle body. The receiving port is configured to receive an energy replenishment connector.

A fuel system is provided that includes a mounting block assembly configured to support an end of a fuel tank. The end of the fuel tank has a boss. The mounting block assembly encloses a space configured to receive the boss of the fuel tank. The fuel system also includes a bearing disposed in the space. The bearing has a support surface configured for sliding support of the boss of the fuel tank at an interface between the first portion and the second portion of the mounting block assembly. The fuel system also includes a sleeve. The sleeve is removably coupled to the boss of the fuel tank such that the sleeve is restrained longitudinally relative to the boss. The sleeve is configured to slide longitudinally relative to the support surface when the boss and sleeve are disposed on the support surface within the space of the mounting block assembly.

The present disclosure relates to a fuel filler apparatus/charging port apparatus/hidden handle apparatus for a vehicle. The fuel filler apparatus/charging port apparatus has a fuel filler lid/charging port lid, and the hidden handle apparatus has a hidden door handle. The fuel filler apparatus/charging port apparatus/hidden handle apparatus includes actuation apparatus and actuation apparatus control unit. The actuation apparatus includes motor, where the motor has an open position, a closed position, and an intermediate position between the open position and the closed position, and the motor is configured to drive an actuation component to move between the open position and the closed position. The actuation apparatus control unit receives an opening signal and a closing signal from a body control module, the opening signal causes the actuation component to move to the open position, and the closing signal causes the actuation component to move to the closed position. The actuation apparatus control unit performs closed-loop control of the motor based on a proportional-integral-derivative control algorithm according to a temperature, a voltage, and a position of the motor, to precisely control the fuel filler lid apparatus/charging port lid apparatus/hidden handle apparatus to move between the open position and the closed position.

A fuel storage device includes a fuel tank, a circulation passage, a canister, a vapor passage, and an adjuster. The fuel tank is configured to store fuel. The circulation passage fluidly connects the fuel tank and a vicinity of a fuel supply port. The canister is configured to recover gas generated in the fuel tank. The vapor passage fluidly connects the fuel tank and the canister. The adjuster is configured to adjust a circulation flow rate of the gas flowing through the circulation passage in supply of the fuel, using a negative pressure.

A fuel cell ship includes a fuel cell that generates electric power by an electrochemical reaction of fuel, a propulsion device that generates propulsive force on a hull by electric power supplied from the fuel cell, a fuel supply pipe through which the fuel is supplied from a fuel tank housing the fuel to the fuel cell, a duct compartment that houses a part of the fuel supply pipe, a vent pipe that communicates with the duct compartment, and a fuel filling port that serves as an inlet for filling the fuel tank with the fuel. The fuel filling port is provided in the duct compartment.

A purging tool is disclosed that is operable to enable a user to utilize a pumping device to create an influx of air/pressure within a fuel tank to purge blockages with a fuel tank and associated fuel lines, herein after referred to as the fuel system. The purging tool comprises an integrated pneumatic valve operable to interface with a pumping device. The purging tool may further comprise a shape operable to be easily adapted to standardized fuel inlets.
