Abstract: A liquid fuel trap device for a vehicle fuel tank, including a housing formed with a confined space with at least one inlet port. The at least one inlet port is connectable to a corresponding fuel valve. There is an outlet port connectable to a fuel vapor recovery system, and a fuel liquid discharge valve adapted for discharging liquid fuel from the space into the tank. The housing further includes a connecting arrangement for attaching the device on an inner surface of an upper wall of the fuel tank.

Abstract: A fuel expansion device for a vehicle fuel tank, the device comprising a housing formed of a first housing member and a second housing member, both made of an essentially impermeable material and being sealingly and impermeably attached to one another. At least one inlet port for fuel fluid ingress is formed in the first member and is in flow communication with the fuel tank, and an outlet port is formed in the second member connectable to a fuel fluid handling device.

Abstract: A head rest support mechanism for a vehicle seat, the head rest being fitted with at least one support rod having a plurality of notches and being supported by the seat back and adapted for vertical adjustment with respect thereto, the support mechanism further including a guiding member fixed to the seat back and comprising a bore slidingly and snugly supporting the support rod. There is a latching spring supported by the guiding member and having one end fixed to the guiding member, another end projecting from the guiding member, and an intermediate, looped, notch engaging portion being normally biased to engage a portion of a notch. The support rod comprises a plurality of notches each lying in a plane which is perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the rod and a normal of the plane is not perpendicular to the longitudinal axis.

Abstract: A roll over vent valve comprising:a housing having a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet, the latter comprising a substantially elongated slit-like outlet aperture of the housing bounded by a valve seating. There is furthermore provided a float member located in the housing and axially displaceable within the housing between the inlet and the outlet; an elongated flexible closure membrane strip anchored at one end thereof to an end of the float member adjacent the outlet and at a portion thereof offset with respect to the outlet; spring biassing means located within the housing and bearing on the float member so as to spring bias it in the direction of the outlet; whereby the spring biassing together with buoyancy forces acting on the float member tend to press the membrane strip into sealing engagement with the outlet aperture whilst gravity forces acting on the float member tend to displace the float member away from the outlet so as to progressively detach the strip from sealing engagement with the outlet.
