Abstract: A fuel cut-off valve includes a case having a first opening communicated with the inside of a fuel tank and a second opening communicated with a canister; a lower float that is provided so as to move up and down inside the case and has a first valve member above the lower float; an upper float that is provided so as to move up and down above an upper portion of the lower float and has a second valve member and a third opening communicated with the canister; a first valve seat provided on the upper float, against which the first valve member abuts to close off the third opening; a second valve seat against which the second valve member abuts to close off the second opening; and a guide member that guides the upper float when the upper float moves up and down.

Abstract: A joining structure is provided which includes a first resin member and a second resin member having respective joining portions that are joined together by friction welding. The joining structure further includes a projecting wall that is opposed to the joining portions of the first and second resin members with a spacing therebetween. In the joining structure, at least one notch is formed in a surface of the projecting wall that faces the joining portions of the first and second resin members.

Abstract: A fuel cutoff apparatus is provided with an outer casing and an inner float disposed inside the outer casing so as to be vertically movable therein. A plurality of openings are provided in a side face of the outer casing. A valve opening is provided at a top portion of the outer casing and a valve body is provided at a top portion of the inner float. There is also provided a plate that closes a bottom surface of the outer casing and an exhaust port for exhausting fuel provided in the plate closed by a valve protrusion provided on a bottom portion of the inner float.

Abstract: A fuel vapor treating apparatus includes a lower valve casing and an upper valve casing. A float is provided in the lower valve casing and a valve portion is provided in the float for sealing the flow of fuel. A valve port is provided between the lower valve casing and the upper valve casing and is opened and closed by the valve portion. A vent passage portion is provided in the upper valve casing. A space portion is provided between the vent passage portion and the valve port. A valve portion of the float moves vertically in accordance with a liquid level in a fuel tank and opens and closes the valve port, whereby the fuel tank is brought into communication with the vent passage portion. A vent port is provided in a partition that separates the space portion from the vent passage portion. And, a second float is provided to open and close the vent port. The fuel vapor treating apparatus reliably stops fuel leakage from the fuel tank.

Abstract: An evaporative emission control system is provided which includes an upper valve casing defining a vent conduit, a lower valve casing disposed under the upper valve casing, and a float disposed within the lower valve casing. The float is vertically movable depending upon a liquid level of fuel in a fuel tank, and includes a valve portion that faces the upper valve casing. A valve port formed between the upper valve casing and the lower valve casing is opened and closed by the valve portion of the float. The upper valve casing defines a space between the vent conduit and the valve port. A flow restricting device is disposed in the space of the upper valve casing so as to obstruct flow of fuel from the valve port to the vent conduit.
