发明名称 FUEL TANK SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SENSING PERFORATION
摘要 A fuel tank system includes: a fuel tank; a canister; a vent pipe; a valve member that is provided at the vent pipe and is sectioned into a tank-side main chamber, a canister-side main chamber and a back pressure chamber; a pipe configured to open an interior of the canister to the atmosphere; a negative pressure pump that is provided at the pipe, and applies negative pressure through the canister and the vent pipe to a fuel tank interior; a judging means for judging absence/presence of perforation of the fuel tank from behavior of air pressure at a time when negative pressure is generated at the negative pressure pump; and a negative pressure application path that communicates the pipe with the back pressure chamber, and that is configured to apply negative pressure from the negative pressure pump to the back pressure chamber without the negative pressure going through the canister.

主权项 1. A fuel tank system comprising: a fuel tank that can accommodate fuel at an interior thereof; a canister that, by an adsorbent, adsorbs and desorbs evaporated fuel that is generated within the fuel tank; a vent pipe that communicates the fuel tank with the canister, and that is configured to send the evaporated fuel within the fuel tank to the canister; a valve member that is provided at the vent pipe and is sectioned into a tank-side main chamber, that communicates with the vent pipe that is at a fuel tank side, a canister-side main chamber that communicates with the vent pipe that is at a canister side, and a back pressure chamber that is disposed at a side of a valve member main body which is opposite a side at which the tank-side main chamber and the canister-side main chamber are disposed; a pipe configured to open an interior of the canister to the atmosphere; a negative pressure pump that is provided at the pipe for opening to the atmosphere, and applies negative pressure through the canister and the vent pipe to the fuel tank interior; a judging means for judging absence/presence of perforation of the fuel tank from behavior of air pressure at a time when negative pressure is generated at the negative pressure pump; and a negative pressure application path that communicates the pipe with the back pressure chamber, and that is configured to apply negative pressure from the negative pressure pump to the back pressure chamber without the negative pressure going through the canister.
