Fuel tank of oil heater

摘要

A fuel tank includes an inlet port communicating with a fuel decelerating section of the tank in which the inflowing fuel is decelerated. The decelerated fuel is delivered to a fuel intake compartment of the tank which contains a filter. The filtered fuel is then delivered to a fuel storage area of the tank which includes a hose leading to an outlet port. A buoyant member is mounted on the inlet end of the hose to enable that inlet end to rise to or near the surface of fuel in the tank. Sediment drains are provided in the bottom of the tank for removing sediment from the fuel intake compartment and the fuel storage area.
