    摘要: A plastic bodied fuel vapor management valve has mounting lugs thereon which are adjustably snap-locked onto a bracket provided on a cover for the tank access opening to selectively locate the valve vertically on the bracket. As the valve is engaged with the bracket, a vapor vent fitting provided on the cover is received in the valve outlet and sealed by a seal ring. The cover preferably comprises a mounting flange for a fuel level signal sender.

    摘要: An outdoor lighting system utilizing reflectors capable of producing a uniform distribution of light over a large area. The system reflectors employ parabolic reflecting surfaces utilizing a plurality of adjacent small concave and convex configurations for distributing the light in a uniform manner with a minimum of spillage, and a single reflector may employ three separate types of reflecting configurations to achieve the desired result at variable distances from the light source.

    摘要: A device and method for roller swaging a tube and a fitting using a tapered mandrel acting on forming rollers and having a rack body that supports lead screws that are rotated by a rack motor where the lead screws are used to move the rack drive head and the axial position of the mandrel. The mandrel is supported by a roller bearing having roller elements that are parallel to the rotational axis of the mandrel. A position sensor is attached between the rack body and the rack drive head to indirectly measure the position of the mandrel and/or a position sensor can be used to directly measure the position of the mandrel. The drive motor drives a primary drive shaft through a torque sensor to a secondary drive shaft to a roller swaging assembly and to the mandrel. The swage rollers in the roller swaging assembly are forced outward by the tapered mandrel to swage the tube and fitting. Prior to beginning the swage, the mandrel is moved into the tube until the torque sensor increases, the position of the rack drive head is measured and a calculation of the required swaging process is made by a controller. After the swage, the mandrel is again moved into the tube until the torque increases and the position of the rack drive head is measured and is used to determine the quality of the swage. Alternatively, pneumatic cylinders are used to initially axially move the mandrel into position where angled rollers then apply an axial force to the mandrel when the mandrel is rotated.

    摘要: A capless filler neck creates a vapor-tight closure for a fuel system using a spring-loaded door and a latch structure that anchors the door to create a vapor-tight seal. The filler neck includes a spring that biases the door shut and a wedge arrangement that acts as the latching structure. The wedge arrangement includes a movable plate that selectively engages with the door to pull the door shut with sufficient force to form and maintain the vapor-tight seal.

    摘要: A fuel tank has a recess formed on the inner surface of the upper wall. A vent valve has a mounting portion extending therefrom with a resiliently deflectable disc formed thereon and a guide disc spaced from the deflectable disc. Upon insertion into the recess the deflectable disc is deflected and the periphery thereof frictionally engages the inner surface of the tank wall recess. The guide member slidably fits into the recess to prevent lateral movement of the mounting portion and removal from the recess.

    摘要: A diagnostic testing system for use with two or more lighting systems of the High Intensity Discharge (HID) sports lighting type, wherein two or more lighting systems have their ballasts and diagnostic receptacles combined in a single ballast box at the base of a light pole for diagnostic access. Each lighting system has its own diagnostic receptacle electrically coupled to the other lighting system through a common block supplying power to the multi-system fixture. Each lighting system typically comprises at least one lamp, a ballast, a capacitor, and wiring interconnecting the lamp, ballast, and capacitor. Each diagnostic receptacle includes a continuity plug wired to maintain electrical connection to the common block while it is plugged in, and to cause its associated lighting system to be electrically isolated from the common block when the plug is removed. The diagnostic receptacles are adapted to receive a connector from a handheld diagnostic tester which maintains the electrical isolation from the common block during the diagnostic testing.

    摘要: Isolation valves of the invention are advantageously mechanically actuated. Such valves and associated methods comprise a first port in fluid communication with a first component; a second port in fluid communication with a second component; a third port in fluid communication with a third component; a diaphragm disposed within the valve for closing a normally open internal pathway to occlude fluid communication between the first port and the second port in response to a pressure differential across the diaphragm; and a flow sensitive pressure device for controlling the pressure differential across the diaphragm. Fluid flows from the second component to the third component upon closing of the normally open internal pathway. In an exemplary embodiment, isolation valves and methods of the invention are adapted for use in fuel tank emission control systems.

    摘要: A combination fuel tank rollover valve, float actuated fill vent shutoff and tank vapor pressure relief valve assembly in a common housing for assembly into a single access opening in the tank. A header containing the pressure relief valve is sealed over the tank access opening and has an extension member attached to the undersurface of the header with an extension neck extending through the access opening. An interchangeable vent float valve subassembly is attached to the end of the neck before attachment of the extension to the header and assembly on the tank. Tanks of different depth can be accommodated simply by using extension members having a correspondingly different length necks, while the float valve subassembly and header are interchangeable.
