Fuel fill apparatus for use with fuel delivery systems

摘要

Fuel fill apparatus for use with fluid delivery systems are described. An example fuel fill apparatus includes a body defining a throat area adjacent an opening of the body where the opening is configured to receive a fuel cap. A fuel fill portion defines a first passageway extending at a non-perpendicular angle relative to a longitudinal axis of the opening and a vent portion defines a second passageway. The first passageway is fluidly coupled to the second passageway via the throat area and a fuel nozzle retainer is disposed within the throat area.

1. A fuel fill apparatus comprising:
a body defining a throat area adjacent an opening of the body, the opening configured to receive a fuel cap; a fuel fill portion defining a first passageway extending at a non-perpendicular angle relative to a longitudinal axis of the opening, wherein an axis of the first passageway and the longitudinal axis of the opening define an insertion angle of the fuel fill apparatus, the insertion angle being approximately 29 degrees to enable the first passageway to receive a vapor recovery fuel nozzle having a first angle and a non-vapor recovery fuel nozzle having a second angle different than the first angle; a vent portion defining a second passageway, wherein the first passageway is fluidly coupled to the second passageway via the throat area; and a fuel nozzle retainer disposed within the throat area, the retainer partially extending about a circumference of the opening.
