Title:
FUEL SUPPLY SYSTEM
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3714189
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a fuel supply system that can simplify layout and suppress increase in manufacturing cost and can facilitate additional fuel supply by omitting a vent valve and reducing the number of part items.
SOLUTION: A canister 7 adsorbs and purges fuel vapor generated in a fuel tank 16, and emits purged gas into the atmosphere via a canister drain cutoff valve 7a. A sender unit 20 disposed in the fuel tank 16 has a level sensor 21 capable of detecting a fuel quantity in the fuel tank 16. While a vehicle speed sensor 19 detects a fuel supply state during a vehicle stop, a control part 18 closes the canister drain cutoff valve 7a if a fuel level position detected by the level sensor 21 is at or above a first given height.
