20120222657 | EVAPORATIVE EMISSION CONTROL DEVICE FOR INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE - A canister shutoff valve has a canister connection port for communicating with a canister, a vapor line connection port connected to a vapor line, and a purge line connection port connected to a purge line. When the canister shutoff valve is de-energized and thus is open, the canister connection port, the vapor line connection port and the purge line connection port communicate with one another, allowing fuel evaporative gas to flow into and out of the canister. When the canister shutoff valve is energized and thus is closed, the canister connection port is blocked and only the vapor line connection port and the purge line connection port communicate with each other, thereby preventing the fuel evaporative gas from flowing into and out of the canister. | 09-06-2012 |

20150059870 | FUEL TANK SYSTEM - A first pressure sensor capable of detecting pressure in a narrow pressure range with a high accuracy to detect internal pressure in the fuel tank is arranged in the fuel tank, and a second pressure sensor that is capable of detecting pressure in a wide pressure range with a low accuracy with respect to the first pressure sensor, and is capable of detecting internal pressure of the fuel tank, is arranged in vapor piping between the fuel tank and a tank blocking valve. When a filler lid switch is operated to release internal pressure of the fuel tank, the first pressure sensor detects internal pressure of the fuel tank so that an operation of the tank blocking valve is controlled on the basis of the detection result, and then a filler lid is opened when the internal pressure of the fuel tank becomes the atmospheric pressure. | 03-05-2015 |
20150059890 | FUEL TANK SYSTEM - A first pressure sensor that detects pressure in a narrow pressure range with a high accuracy is provided in a fuel tank, and a second pressure sensor that detects pressure in a wide pressure range with a low accuracy with respect to the first pressure sensor is provided in vapor piping between the fuel tank and a tank blocking valve. Until internal pressure of the fuel tank becomes a second predetermined pressure, meter indication is performed on a display on the basis of a second tank internal pressure P2 calculated by the second pressure sensor and an atmospheric pressure sensor, and when internal pressure of the fuel tank becomes less than the second predetermined pressure, the meter indication is performed on the display on the basis of a first tank internal pressure P1 obtained by the first pressure sensor until internal pressure of the fuel tank becomes a fifth predetermined pressure. | 03-05-2015 |
20150068499 | FUEL APPARATUS FOR VEHICLE - A fuel apparatus includes a vapor passage for guiding evaporation gas in a fuel tank to a canister, a sealing valve for closing the vapor passage in normal condition to keep the interior of the fuel tank in a sealed state, a leak detection portion for detecting leak of the evaporation gas from the closed space of the fuel tank in the sealed state to outside, and an opening control portion for opening the sealing valve when leak of the evaporation gas from within the fuel tank is detected. Alternatively, the fuel apparatus includes a bypass passage connecting an upstream portion of the vapor passage located upstream of the sealing valve and a downstream portion of the vapor passage located downstream of the sealing valve to each other to bypass the sealing valve, and a bypass valve provided in the bypass passage, for opening the bypass passage in the closed state when leak of the evaporation gas from within the fuel tank is detected. | 03-12-2015 |
