    Abstract: An automatic fill system includes a tank, a transfer hose, and a valve assembly. The valve assembly has a first end having an outlet orifice configured to be received within the tank. The valve assembly also includes a second end configured to be connected in fluid communication with the transfer hose with the second end having an inlet orifice. The valve assembly also includes at least one fluid passageway between the inlet orifice and the outlet orifice, and a check valve coupled to a spring and a seal. The seal is configured to be slidably moveable within a piston chamber. The valve assembly further includes a heating element located within a heating element chamber and configured to heat the valve assembly. Finally, the valve assembly includes a jet level sensor with a sensor inlet and a sensor outlet. The jet level sensor is in fluid communication with the piston chamber.

    Abstract: A non-pressurized fluid level shutoff system for a fuel tank includes a fuel receiver having a flow control valve that opens in a direction opposite a direction of fuel flow, and that cannot be manually overridden. A fuel sensor funnels fuel through a fuel jet outlet orifice to form a stream of fuel across a cutout section, and a supplemental peripheral port connected between an outlet orifice mixing chamber and the interior of the tank is oriented perpendicular to the stream of fuel across the cutout section, to interfere with the stream of fuel when the sensor is submerged in fuel in the tank, to further reduce any residual fluid flow signal when the sensor is fully submerged, allowing the flow control valve in the receiver to close completely.

    Abstract: A closure indicator for a fluid coupling is disclosed where the fluid coupling has first and second semi-circular members hinged together at a first end and latched together at the opposite end, the indicator comprising an upper surface including a stop on a rear surface for arresting rotational travel in a first direction, first and second sidewalls with elongate slots, a spring biasing the indicator in the first direction, and first and second arms extending from said first and second sidewalls, respectively, to a position under a pin of a bracket only when the members are latched together.
