    摘要: A diagnostic control system for a purge valve that regulates fuel vapor flow from a fuel system into an intake manifold for an engine includes a calculation module and a malfunction module. The calculation module estimates a plurality of areas based on a plurality of pressure signals and calculates an average rate of increase of vacuum pressure in the fuel system during operation of the purge valve. The malfunction module determines whether the average rate of increase of vacuum pressure is within a predetermined range generating a purge valve functioning signal, and generates a purge valve malfunction signal when the average rate of increase of vacuum pressure is not within the predetermined range.

    摘要: A fuel conditioning apparatus includes a housing having an interior chamber that extends between an inlet and an outlet. The chamber is surrounded by a threaded channel that is formed in an interior wall of the housing. A plurality of permanent magnets are carried within the chamber of the housing interiorly of the threaded channel. Like poles of adjacent magnets face one another such that each pair of adjacent magnets repel one another and define a mixing pocket that is in communication with the channel. Fuel is transmitted through the channel and the mixing pockets. Magnetic flux generated by the magnets induces energy within the fuel to resist repolymerization and the formation of particulates in the fuel.

    摘要: Provided herein are couplings useful in the transfer of liquid fuels from a remote storage reservoir to an on-board fuel tank of a motorized vehicle. There is provided a first coupling which is adapted to be in fluid communication with the interior of a vehicle's fuel tank, and a second coupling which is intended to be in fluid communication with the contents of a remote fuel storage reservoir. The invention also includes a process for charging a fuel reservoir on board of a motorized vehicle from a remote reservoir, wherein the vapor in the fuel reservoir is displaced by an equal volume of fuel delivered from said remote reservoir, and wherein the vapor in said fuel reservoir is simultaneously caused to be transferred to said remote reservoir, thus permitting no escape of the vapor from said fuel reservoir to the surrounding atmosphere. Through use of the present invention, spills of fuel are essentially eliminated, and the escape of vapors from the vehicle's fuel tank are prevented, thus preventing atmospheric hydrocarbon pollution.

    摘要: A fuel conditioning assembly having an elongated housing with an inlet, an outlet, and a flow through passage there between. The inlet is coupled with a fuel supply so as to receive fuel flow there through into the flow through passage, wherein a turbulent flow of the fuel is initiated and the fuel is influenced by a combination of elements, in compound or elemental form, some of which are maintained in a select location within the flow through passage by a binding element. These elements may include copper, aluminum, stainless steel, titanium, magnesium, barium, calcium, iron, zirconium, cerium, platinum, and/or palladium which chemically condition the fuel flowing through the flow through passage by rearranging the molecular bonds of the fuel with a catalytic effect. The fuel, regardless of its type is dispersed into very small droplets having high surface areas thereby lowering the vapor density of the fuel and substantially increasing a fuel burn efficiency. Further, the reaction of a variety of these elements, at least with one another, serves to create an electrostatic charge that is conveyed through the flow through passage by an elongate segment and causes fuel molecules to repel one another resulting in the aforementioned catalytic effect and conditioning of the fuel as it passes through the outlet into to any of a variety of fuel combustion assemblies.

    摘要: A leakage diagnosing apparatus for an evaporated gas purge system, which executes purge system leakage diagnosis based on a detected pressure change amount and an introduced pressure which is introduced into a part of the purge system including at least a fuel tank and a canister. The detected pressure change amount is obtained by detecting pressure in the part of the purge system after such part of the purge system is hermetically sealed. Accordingly, the reliability of the leakage diagnosis is improved because an erroneous diagnosis caused by the introduced pressure is prevented. The detected pressure change amount may be compensated based on the introduced pressure into the sealed gas purge system. Accordingly, an erroneous leakage determination is prevented, and the reliability of leakage determination is improved.
