Abstract: An end structure for a pipe is provided, through which air is drawn from a lower position to an upper position relative to a vertical direction of a vehicle. An area of an opening at an end of the pipe is adapted to be greater than a cross section area of the pipe.

Abstract: A fuel tank in which at least a part of a fuel storing unit is formed of a flexible film is provided with a main chamber having a variable volume by deforming according to a storing amount of a fuel, a sub-chamber having a volume which is kept substantially constant, and a fuel pump housed inside the sub-chamber. The main chamber and the sub-chamber are integrally formed to form the fuel storing unit.

Abstract: A fuel tank venting system for a vehicle comprises first and second vent passages connected to the fuel tank, and a third vent passage connected to the fuel tank. The first to third vent passages each have one end thereof located in the fuel tank at an upper front location thereof, an upper rear location thereof, and an upper central location thereof, respectively. An anti-overcharging valve is arranged in the fuel tank and connected to the other end of the third vent passage. A first valve is connected to the one ends of the first and second vent passages, and a confluent vent passage extends from the first valve toward an internal combustion engine installed in the vehicle. A second valve is arranged across the confluent vent passage on one side of the first valve closer to the engine. The third vent passage has the other end thereof connected to the confluent vent passage at a location intermediate between the first valve and the second valve.

Abstract: A fuel feeder for an automotive engine, which comprises a fuel tank with a sub-tank provided therein for feeding fuel from the sub-tank to an engine. Excess fuel returned from the engine is led to an overflow chamber disposed in the sub-tank and thence overflows into the sub-tank. Normally, the overflow chamber is thus full of returned fuel. When the fuel in the sub-tank is brought to one side due to a sudden acceleration or deceleration or a turning of the vehicle, the fuel in the overflow chamber is also brought to the same side and overflows from the overflow chamber, thus increasing fuel in the sub-tank.

Abstract: Coating color and method for providing an excellent coating condition and paper quality through steps comprising a direct addition of enzymatically converted powdered or granulated dry starch to an aqueous suspension of pigments. The dry starch is soluble and impasted in the cold aqueous suspension of pigments without impastation heat and/or other equipment.
