Abstract: An equalization shutoff valve includes a housing having an outward extending flange around an open end of the housing, retaining clips attached to the flange configured to engage a battery pack compartment, and piston guides disposed inside the housing; a piston having guide notches engaging the piston guides, and a first flow port; a spring disposed between the housing and the piston to urge the piston in a direction away from a closed end of the housing; and a locking tab cover attached to the housing with the piston inside the housing, and having a second flow port and locking tabs with clip ports. The housing is attached to the battery pack compartment through the retaining clips so that air flows from inside the battery pack compartment, and when pressure inside the housing increases, increased pressure pushes the spring and the piston to allow air to exit from the housing.

Abstract: A fuel pump cover apparatus includes a fuel pump assembly configured to be attached to a fuel tank, and a lock ring disposed on the fuel pump assembly configured to fix the fuel pump assembly to the fuel tank and having a plurality of slots. A cover ring is placed over the lock ring and includes a plurality of clipping devices disposed under the cover ring to be attached to the slots of the lock ring, and spring retainers disposed under the cover ring to apply pressure between the cover ring and the fuel pump assembly. A cover is disposed over the cover ring to cover the fuel pump assembly, and a plurality of retaining members is arranged between the cover and the cover ring to removably attach the cover to the cover ring.

Abstract: A vapor particle separator includes a housing having an inlet port in fluid communication with the outlet of the fuel tank, an outlet port in fluid communication with the inlet port of the vapor canister and a drain port in fluid communication with the filler neck. The inlet port has deflector ribs and a centralized nose cone creating a straight flow path resulting in less restriction in the fuel vapor flow. As the mixture flows along the inlet passage, it is forced through the deflection ribs and nose cone at which time the droplets and vapors are separated. The separated droplets and vapors flow from the inlet passage into the inlet pipe. The outlet passage and the drain portion allow the lite weight vapors to rise up into the outlet passage and out the outlet portion while gravity pulls the heavier weight droplets down into the return portion.
