摘要:
A fuel tank for a motor vehicle, having a wall (3) which is manufactured from plastic, in particular by injection molding, is provided on its inside with a permeation barrier (4). The permeation barrier (4) is manufactured from a material which is virtually impenetrable for fuel vapors. The permeation barrier (4) is composed of shell parts (5, 6) which are welded to one another.
摘要:
In a method of producing a fuel tank from plastic, a heating element is located between two shell parts to be welded to one another. When the shell parts are pressed together, the heating element melts into the plastic and produces a weld that provides a fuel-resistant seal. The fuel tank subsequently has a particularly exact shape.
摘要:
A device for supplying an internal combustion engine (1) of a motor vehicle with fuel has a return line (4) which is passed into a fuel tank (2) and has a wall made of a material of high thermal conductivity. The return line (4) is arranged within a ventilation duct (5). Cooling air is conveyed through the ventilation duct (5) to the return line (4). This is a simple means of limiting the maximum temperature of the fuel in the fuel tank (2).
摘要:
A fuel tank for a motor vehicle comprising a wall composed of two shells arranged one above the other. The outer shell of the wall preferably has an inlet orifice and an outlet orifice. A filter element is arranged in front of the outlet orifice. Scavenging air from the inlet orifice thereby passes first into a gap between the shells and subsequently to a filter element. As a result, fuel vapors can no longer diffuse through the wall and pollute the environment.
