  • Rapid response fuel tank rollover/vent valve
    Publication number: 20060000091
    Abstract: A float operated vapor vent/rollover valve for a fuel tank has a converging section formed in the liquid inlet to the valve which, in response to surges or waves in the fuel, creates a liquid jet impinging on the bottom of the float causing rapid closing of the valve and preventing liquid fuel from entering the vapor vent lines to the vapor storage device.

  • Attaching dissimilar materials to a fuel tank by weldment
    Publication number: 20050145316
    Abstract: A pass-through formed of material unweldable to a non-metallic tank has an adaptor ring formed of material also unweldable to the tank which is welded to the pass-through body. Prior to welding the adaptor ring to the pass-through the adaptor ring is chemically bonded to a mounting ring, which is formed of material weldable to the tank. The assembly thus formed may then be welded to the tank.
