    摘要: A self-contained brushless electric-motor fuel pump for internal combustion engine fuel delivery systems and like applications in accordance with the present invention comprises a housing having a fuel inlet and fuel outlet, and a brushless electric motor with a permanent magnet armature mounted for rotation within the housing and stator windings surrounding the armature within the housing. A pump mechanism is positioned between the fuel inlet and outlet, and is coupled to the armature for corotation with the armature within the housing to pump fuel under pressure from the inlet to the outlet. A pressure sensor is operatively coupled to the fuel outlet within the housing for providing an electrical pressure signal as a function of fuel pressure at the outlet. Pump motor control electronics within the housing includes circuitry for comparing the pressure signal from the pressure sensor to a pump drive reference signal, and providing an error signal as a function of a difference therebetween. Drive current is applied to the stator windings of the motor as a function of such error signal.

    摘要: An electric-motor fuel pump that includes a housing with a fuel inlet and a fuel outlet, and an electric motor with a rotor responsive to application of electrical power for rotating within the housing. A pump mechanism includes an impeller coupled to the rotor for corotation with the rotor and having a periphery with a circumferential array of impeller vanes. A pair of plates oppose the sides of the impeller and a split ring surrounds the periphery of the impeller to form an arcuate pumping channel around the periphery of the impeller. Inlet and outlet ports at opposed ends of the pumping channel are operatively coupled to the inlet and outlet in the pump housing. Channels extend radially inwardly from the pockets in each side face of the impeller, and are interconnected by through-passages that extend through the impeller. A vapor vent is disposed in one of the side plates for sequential registry with the impeller through-openings for venting vapor from the pumping channel.

    摘要: In a fuel system for an internal combustion engine powering a motor vehicle, a fuel reservoir canister mounted in a main fuel tank. An annular fuel filter element is enclosed in an axially elongate housing with radially spaced apart inner and outer cylindrical side walls. The housing is received in the canister with its outer side wall bearing on and radially supported by a complementary side wall of the canister. Preferably, a fuel pump and pressure regulator are disposed in the canister preferably so they overlap with and are encircled by the filter housing. The high pressure outlet of the fuel pump is connected to the filter to supply filtered fuel to the engine at a pressure regulated and controlled by the pressure regulator.

    摘要: A main fuel tank in an automotive vehicle contains a reservoir in which is located a two-stage electrically operated pump. The first stage is a jet pump which draws fuel from the main tank and delivers it to the reservoir. The second stage is a rotary pump which draws from the reservoir and delivers to the vehicle engine. The reservoir has overflow restriction means which allows air to vent while the reservoir is filling but which restricts fuel flow when the reservoir is full. This creates pressure in the reservoir to create back pressure against and shut down flow from the jet pump and also increase pressure on the fuel inlet of the main pump thus increasing the efficiency of the main fuel pump.

    摘要: A fuel pressure regulator with a flexible diaphragm defining in part first and second chambers in a housing and moving a ball valve in the first chamber to open and closed positions to regulate pressure of fuel discharged from the first chamber through an outlet having a seat on which the ball is received when the valve is closed. A cage carried by the diaphragm cooperates with a carrier member or disc fixed to the ball to provide a lost motion coupling between the diaphragm and the ball valve. This coupling permits movement within predetermined limits of the diaphragm generally axially, radially and pivotally relative to the ball while it remains on its seat and upon further generally axial movement of the diaphragm open and partially closes the ball valve to regulate and maintain substantially constant the pressure of fuel discharged from the chamber over substantially the full range of the rate at which the fuel is discharged. Preferably, to further improve regulation, a restricted orifice is disposed in the outlet downstream of the valve seat.

    摘要: A quick connect assembly for a fuel pump outlet line and a fuel tank line outlet with a flexible grommet received in a housing connected to one of the lines. The other line is received in a central hole through the grommet. A cover overlies the grommet and is urged onto the housing by a compression spring. In use, pressurized fuel is received in an annular groove in the grommet and urges it into sealing engagement with both the line received therein and the housing.
