摘要:
A canister (1) for filtering fuel vapours coming from a motor-vehicle fuel tank (3), comprises at least one chamber (180) containing adsorbing material (18) in the form of particles or granules. Freely floating between the particles or granules of adsorbing material (18) there are arranged one or more flexible sheets (F1-F6) of a material substantially impervious to air, so as to define a tortuous path for communication between an opening (4) of the canister communicating with the atmosphere and an opening (6) of the canister communicating with the intake manifold (11) of the internal combustion engine (10) of the motor-vehicle. When the internal combustion engine is in operation, an air flow is drawn into the canister through the above indicated opening (4) communicating with the atmosphere. This air flow passes through the particles or granules of adsorbed material (18) and exits from the above indicated opening (6) communicating to the intake manifold (11) of the engine. In this manner, a scavenging of the adsorbed material is obtained, with a removal of the fuel particles retained therein. The flexible sheets (F1-F6) are arranged so as to cause the above indicated air flow to follow a tortuous path through the canister, so as to achieve an efficient scavenging action.
摘要:
After an engine (10) is started, pump monitoring is performed as follows: a canister (33) is opened to the atmosphere; a negative pressure pump (34c) is activated; and abnormality of the negative pressure pump (34c) is evaluated on the basis of canister pressure Pc detected with a pressure sensor (34h) in an evaporative leakage checking module (34), and after the pump monitoring is completed, a switching valve (34e) is closed so that the negative pressure pump (34c) communicates with the canister (33) for purge any fuel evaporative gas into an intake passage (11) of the engine (10), and whether or not leakage has occurred in a fuel evaporative gas emission suppressor (1) is evaluated based on the canister pressure Pc.

摘要:
A cylindrical column-shaped honeycomb adsorbent has a plurality of cell passages extending along an axial direction of the honeycomb adsorbent. The plurality of cell passages are configured so that a pitch of adjacent cell passages is within a range of 1.5 mm ∼ 1.8 mm, and so that a thickness of a wall between the cell passages is within a range of 0.45 mm ∼ 0.60 mm. With this configuration, the honeycomb adsorbent exhibits BWC (Butane Working Capacity) of 6.5 g/dL or greater. By mixing fibrous meltable core melting away during baking, the honeycomb adsorbent has macropores configured to have a volume of 0.15 mL/g ∼ 0.35 mL/g with respect to an overall weight of the honeycomb adsorbent and metal oxide particles having a proportion of weight of 150 ∼ 250 % with respect to the activated carbon.
摘要:
An intake pipe (IP) of an evaporated fuel processing device (8) is provided with a throttle valve (TV) downstream of a supercharger (CH), and an ejector (40) in parallel to the supercharger (CH). A purge passage (32) is branched into first and second branch passages (24, 26), which connect to the intake pipe (IP) at a position downstream of the throttle valve (TV) and to a suction port (40a) of the ejector (40), respectively. In the ejector (40), its intake port (40b) is connected to the intake pipe (IP) at a position between the supercharger (CH) and the throttle valve (TV), and its exhaust port (40c) is connected to the intake pipe (IP) at a position upstream of the supercharger (CH). A flow rate of purge gas in the second branch passage (26) is obtained based on at least two of a first pressure downstream of the throttle valve (TV), a second pressure between the supercharger (CH) and the throttle valve (TV), and a third pressure upstream of the supercharger (CH).
摘要:
A controller for an internal combustion engine (2) is provided. The engine (2) includes a compressor (22), a three way catalyst (36), a canister (46), an evaporated fuel passage (54), an ejector (56), and a purge control valve (58). The controller includes an ECU (100). The ECU (100) is configured to decrease an opening degree of the purge control valve (58) in response to an increase in pressure on the downstream side of the compressor (22) in a lean supercharging range. The is a range in which an operation air-fuel ratio of the internal combustion engine (2) is leaner than a theoretical air-fuel ratio of the internal combustion engine (2), and in which the pressure on the downstream side of the compressor (22) is higher than pressure on the upstream side of the compressor (22).
摘要:
A microcondenser device for an evaporative emission control system includes a housing having an inlet for receiving fuel vapor and a condensation outlet for discharging condensed fuel vapor, and a porous element disposed in the housing and fluidly interposed between the inlet and the condensation outlet for absorbing the fuel vapor received through the inlet. The microcondenser device further includes a thermoelectric element in thermal contact with the porous element for removing heat from the fuel vapor absorbed by the porous element to condense the fuel vapor.

A fuel vapor purge system includes: a fuel tank (10); a canister (13); a passage component (22) that defines an intake passage of an internal-combustion engine (2); a purge pump (14) pumping vapor fuel; and a valve device (15, 115, 215, 315) having a valve object (152), a main part (150) having an internal passage, an inflow port (154) through which the vapor fuel pumped from the canister flows into the main part, an outflow port (155) connected with the inflow port through the internal passage and being opened to the intake passage, and a leak port (4, 104, 204, 304) connected with the inflow port through the internal passage and being opened to outside of the main part. The leak port has a leak preventive structure (40, 221) which prevents the vapor fuel from leaking to outside when the valve device is attached to the passage component such that the vapor fuel is able to flow into the intake passage.
