发明名称 FUEL TANK SYSTEM
摘要 A valve member is provided to a vent pipe for communicating a fuel tank with a canister. A solenoid valve is provided to a canister side bypass passage between a back pressure chamber of the valve member and the canister side vent pipe. An extending member is provided to restrict the valve lift amount in accordance with the internal pressure of the fuel tank.

主权项 1. A fuel tank system, comprising: a fuel tank configured to internally store fuel; a canister that employs an adsorbent to adsorb or desorb vaporized fuel produced inside the fuel tank; a full tank limit valve that is provided inside the fuel tank, and that is closed by a float floating on fuel when a liquid surface of fuel inside the fuel tank has reached a pre-set full tank liquid level; an open-to-atmosphere pipe for opening the inside of the canister to the atmosphere; a vent pipe for communicating the fuel tank with the canister via the full tank limit valve and transporting vaporized fuel inside the fuel tank to the canister; a valve member that is provided in the vent pipe, that is partitioned into a tank side main chamber in communication with the vent pipe on the fuel tank side, a canister side main chamber that is in communication with the vent pipe on the canister side, and a back pressure chamber disposed at the opposite side of a valve member body to the tank side main chamber and the canister side main chamber, and that opens to enable communication with the vent pipe as the valve member body moves when the internal pressure of the tank side main chamber and the canister side main chamber becomes higher than the internal pressure of the back pressure chamber; a tank side bypass passage for conducting the internal pressure of the fuel tank to the back pressure chamber; a canister side bypass passage for opening the back pressure chamber to the atmosphere; a solenoid valve that is controlled so as to open or close the canister side bypass passage; and a valve lift amount restricting means that includes an extending member provided in the back pressure chamber so as to be capable of extending, and that restricts a lift amount of the valve member body in accordance with the internal pressure of the fuel tank.
