Provided is a roll over fuel-vapor valve is provided including a housing defining a valve having a valve inlet port extending through a wall of the housing and a valve outlet port and a float member disposed between the inlet port and the outlet port and being displaceable between an open position and a closed position the hosing further comprising a fluid flow channel extending along a top portion thereof and having a first end and a second end, wherein the outlet port extending into the channel such that in the open position fluid flow is facilitated between the valve inlet port and the channel.

A ventilation control valve for a fuel tank is disposed in a ventilation passage which communicates an inside and an outside of a fuel tank. The ventilation control valve includes a float that floats on a liquid level of a fuel and moves up and down. The ventilation control valve includes a valve mechanism which switches a passage sectional area of the ventilation passage in conjunction with the float to an open state and a restricted state in which the passage sectional area is restricted from the opened state. The float has a volume chamber in which volume changes in accordance with a vertical movement of the float. A control gap as a flow rate adjusting mechanism is formed between the cylindrical wall of the float and the cylindrical wall of a case. Due to the control gap, the volume chamber functions as a damper.

The present invention relates broadly and separately to a flow control valve and a float control valve assembly for use in the refilling of storage vessels, particularly fuel tanks. The invention also relates generally to a vessel overfill protection system. The flow control valve comprises a valve body defining a fluid passageway disposed between a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet and a piston assembly located at least in part within the fluid passageway. The piston assembly includes a piston support to which a piston is slidably mounted for opening and closure of the fluid outlet. The piston support includes at least one fluid sampling passage arranged to provide pressurised fluid from the fluid inlet to an upstream surface of the piston which is urged for opening of the fluid outlet to permit flow of fluid through the fluid passageway. The float control valve assembly includes a float assembly body adapted to mount within a vessel to be filled with fluid via the flow control valve. The float control valve includes a pilot valve and a pilot control passage in fluid communication with the flow control valve. The pilot valve is operatively coupled to a float member for closure of the pilot control passage on flooding of the float housing to promote closure of the flow control valve.

A fuel cutoff valve has: a valve mechanism that cuts off a communication between a fuel tank and a canister; an upper space defined above the valve mechanism; a tube body that has a tube passage to be communicated with the upper space and introduces a fuel gas to the canister; a retaining chamber defined by a first fuel shielding portion and a second fuel shielding portion to retain a liquid fuel stored in the upper space; a liquid reservoir portion defined between the tube body and the first fuel shielding portion to store the liquid fuel flowing out of the retaining chamber; and a communication portion through which the retaining chamber communicates with the liquid reservoir portion; wherein the communication portion is formed at a position deviated from the tube body so as not to overlap the tube body, when the tube body is seen in its axial direction.

An automatic aeration device includes a first floating roof, a second floating roof and a movable valve. The first floating roof has a through hole and a first enclosure. The second floating roof is disposed in the through hole and has a second enclosure. The movable valve is disposed above the first floating roof and the second floating roof and has a plate which has an outer wall and an inner wall. The outer wall is mounted in the first enclosure and has a plurality of first vent holes. The inner wall is mounted in the second enclosure and has a plurality of second vent holes. The automatic aeration device further includes a plurality of balls mounted between the first enclosure and the outer wall, and mounted between the second enclosure and the inner wall.

A valve device for fuel tank has a case having an air flow valve orifice connected to outside of the tank at an upper part and a fuel inflow part beneath this air flow valve orifice, and being divided into an upper chamber and a lower chamber by a partition formed between the air flow valve orifice and the inflow part; an upper float body being inside the upper chamber and ascending by fuel flowing into the case to be seated in the air flow valve orifice; and a lower float body being supported inside the lower chamber of the case with an upwardly projecting guide shaft being inserted to be movable vertically inside an insertion part formed on the partition, and ascending by fuel flowing into the case to close a main connect-through part between the lower chamber and the upper chamber formed on the partition. A receiving hole for receiving the guide shaft of the lower float body is provided on the upper float body.

A fuel system includes a fuel tank that has a wall with an opening. A fuel float valve includes a float and a seal plate that are arranged on opposing ends of a beam. A support carries a connection of the beam. The beam is configured to translate along the support at the connection in response to a changing fuel level. The fuel float valve is movable between first and second positions in which the seal plate is respectively unsealed and sealed relative to the opening. The seal plate is movable relative to the opening in the second position.

A valve includes a housing, a first ball, a second ball, and a deflector plate. The housing defines an inner chamber and has an inlet and an outlet providing fluid communication into the inner chamber. A longitudinal axis extends between the inlet and outlet. The first ball is disposed in the inner chamber between the inlet and outlet and rests on a seat extending into the inner chamber. The second ball is disposed in the inner chamber between the first ball and outlet and rests on the first ball. The deflector plate is disposed in the inner chamber and positioned between the inlet and first ball. The first ball, second ball, and deflector plate are aligned so that their centers lie on the longitudinal axis. The deflector plate is configured to deflect gas entering through the inlet to prevent the gas from driving the first and second balls upward.

A breather cap assembly is configured to be connected to a stand-tube used in a watering system. When the watering system is in normal operation, the breather cap assembly is configured to allow for air to flow between the outside the assembly and the stand-tube. The breather cap assembly also provides for structure which acts as a baffle to minimize the introduction of foreign material from outside the breather cap assembly into the stand-tube. When the watering system is in flushing operation, the breather cap assembly is configured to seal off the stand-tube in order to minimize the possibility of water leaving the stand-tube. The breather cap assembly further also provides for structure which acts as a baffle to collect and retain a majority of any water that does leave the stand-tube during a flushing operation.

A non-pressure valve is provided, and includes a tubular housing having an inlet and an outlet, and a flow-through support mount disposed in the outlet. The non-pressure valve also includes a poppet slideably coupled with the flow-through support mount and extending towards the inlet, and an outlet fitting extending through the flow-through support mount and the first poppet, the outlet fitting forming a slide guide for first poppet. The non-pressure valve also includes a sliding bell disposed around a portion of the first poppet and configured to slide independently of the first poppet. The non-pressure valve functions to divert a portion of the fuel flow through a hose to the remote fuel vent.
