  • Patent number: 8770218
    Abstract: A casing has a vessel portion, in which a float valve unit is arranged. A fuel drain through-hole having a small diameter is formed at a closed end bottom of the vessel portion. A cross sectional area of the fuel drain through-hole is extremely smaller than an opening area of an inlet port, so that fuel discharging speed of the liquid fuel from the vessel portion through the fuel drain through-hole is suppressed to a small value. As a result, a fuel holding time of the liquid fuel in the vessel portion, which has entered into the vessel portion from the inlet port, is made longer.

  • Patent number: 8092883
    Abstract: A resin tank weld member is a weld member that is to be welded to a resin tank that has a fuel permeation prevention function, for example, a pipe fitting, a fuel control valve such as a fuel escape prevention valve, an ORVR valve, etc., a pump, a filter device, etc. The resin tank weld member is formed from a single-layer material of a polyamide/polyolefin-based resin composition.

  • Patent number: 5765522
    Abstract: A low-cost solenoid is provided for stopping an engine, which reduces the possibility of the occurrence of damage, generates little noise due to impact and is of a simple structure. The solenoid includes a suction coil and a holding coil both located within a solenoid body. Current to the suction coil is shut off by means of the movement of a plunger. The solenoid further includes an end wall provided at one end of the solenoid body, a pin which slidably extends through the end wall, a fixed contact provided adjacent the end wall and a leaf-spring shape movable contact configured to be in contact with the fixed contact in a non-operating position of said plunger. When the plunger is brought into an operating position, it contacts the above-mentioned pin to release the contact between the movable contact and the fixed contact.
