IMPROVEMENTS TO FUEL SHUT-OFF VALVE ASSEMBLIES AND METHODS OF MAKING AND ASSEMBLING THE SAME

摘要

A vehicle fuel inlet shut-off valve assembly (300) includes a two-piece housing having inner and outer housing components (302, 304) secured to each other. The housing components can be provided of different materials, with a surface coating. A flapper door assembly (306) is secured in the outer housing component (304) and includes directionally biased interlocking components that facilitate installation and inhibit disconnection after assembly with redundant connections.
