The invention relates to a leak detection system on board of a vehicle comprising a fuel tank (301, 401), a filler pipe (302, 402), a venting line (303, 403) for recirculating fuel vapors from the tank to the filler pipe, said system having a combination pressure and temperature sensor mounted in the vapor dome of the fuel tank, and a pressure sensor located in the recirculation line above the highest possible liquid level that could be present in the recirculation line and to methods to detect said leak.

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 fluid tank that includes a housing. The housing includes a bottom wall, a top wall, and a side wall. The side wall couples the bottom wall to the top wall to define a cavity that receives and houses a liquid. A conduit guides liquid from a fluid source into the cavity. The conduit defines an inlet and an outlet. The outlet couples to the side wall. A vent coupled to the housing and to the conduit. The vent defines a vent inlet coupled to the housing and a vent outlet coupled to the conduit. The vent discharges gas from the housing into the conduit.

A fuel system, a method of fueling a vehicle, and a vehicle are provided. The fuel system has a recirculation line connecting a fuel tank to a fuel fill inlet. An ejector is positioned within the recirculation line, and a valve is positioned within a drain line fluidly connecting the ejector to the fuel tank. A pressure sensor is positioned to measure a pressure associated with the drain line between the ejector and the valve. A controller is in communication with the pressure sensor, and the controller configured to, in response to initiation of a refueling event, determine a state of the valve based on the pressure.

The disclosure provides a refueling port capable of simplifying a structure for restricting rotation of a nozzle guide with respect to a refueling port body. One of the refueling port body and the nozzle guide includes guide ribs formed between an inner peripheral surface of a body cylinder portion and an outer peripheral surface of a guide cylinder portion to sandwich a reflux port in the circumferential direction, and guiding fuel vapor flowing in from the reflux port in a direction toward a filler pipe connection port. The other one of the refueling port body and the nozzle guide includes a locking portion formed between the inner peripheral surface of the body cylinder portion and the outer peripheral surface of the guide cylinder portion, and locked in both directions in the circumferential direction to the guide ribs to restrict relative rotation between the refueling port body and the nozzle guide.

A full charge notification device of a urea water tank for a vehicle is provided. The device is configured to generate a predetermined sound when urea water is normally injected into the urea water tank before a full state, to provide a notification to a user of a full state of the urea water tank through non-generation of the sound.

A filler head for a storage system includes a body to be mounted inclined according to a predetermined angle regarding the gravity direction, called the filling direction, and including a main part closed by a cover part so as to form a cavity in which a separating device is received, the filler head being configured to receive, in a cylindrical wall of the separating device extending around the filling direction, a distribution nozzle of a fluid with an automatic stop sensor to prevent overfilling of the filler head, the separating device being arranged to improve the partitioning of a flow coming from a venting line and the flow going to the filling line. The separating device further includes a flange, protruding transversally from the outside surface of the cylindrical wall and mounted in the cavity upstream of the sensor of the nozzle when received in the cylindrical wall.

A filler head for a storage system includes a body to be mounted inclined having a main part closed by a cover part forming a cavity in which a separating device is received. The filler head is configured to receive, in a cylindrical wall of the separating device, a distribution nozzle of a fluid with an automatic stop sensor to prevent overfilling of the filler head. The filler head includes a buffer volume in one-piece with the main part in a back portion of the body reducing the speed of flow coming from the venting line, and the cylindrical wall includes a recess facing the opening of the buffer volume in the back portion of the body.

An air filter device includes an air filter and a filter case having a filter housing for housing the air filter. The filter case has a pipe part enclosing an outer circumference of a second end of a filler pipe. The second end of the filler pipe defines a fuel filler opening and is opposite to a first end of the filler pipe connected to a fuel tank of a vehicle. A distance between the pipe part and the fuel filler opening is less than a distance between the filter housing and the fuel filler opening. The pipe part is configured to be inserted into a fixed member fixed to a vehicle body. The pipe part has a flange that extends radially outward from the pipe part and is spaced apart from the filter housing in an axial direction.
