ENGINE WIT~ EVAPORATION CONTROL SYSTEM
.
Technical Field -This invention relates to an engine with an evaporation control system that captures substantially all the fuel vapor displaced from the engine fuel system.
Background Automotive engines~generally have the vent lines from the fuel tank and carburetor fuel bowl con-nected to a fuel vapor storage canister. As air and fuel vapor are displaced through the vent lines by increasing temperatures when~the engine is not operating~, the canister captures the fuel vapor to prevent its loss to the atmosphere.
~ If the canister in such a system should become saturated with fuel vapor~, any additional vapor displaced from the fuel tank or carburetor fuel bowl will travel through the canister and out its vent to the atmosphere.
Moreov~r, even when the canister is not saturated, the flow of air and fuel vapor khrough the canister causes some of the fuel vapor previously stored ln the canister to be purged out the canister vent to the atmosphere.
Earlier proposals to prevent loss of fuel vapor through the canister involved either incr~asing the size of the canister or venting the canister through a supplementary canister.
' ~ 1 .~, , -~.Z~594 Su~nar~ of the Invention We have discovered that while such proposals may prevent saturation of the canister or canisters with fuel vapor, they lead to increased loss of fuel vapor from the canister or canisters due to the flow of air and fuel vapor therethrough. On the other hand, we have found that such loss is prevented when a fuel vapor storage canister is vented to the engine air cleaner and a supplementary fuel vapor storage bed is disposed in the air cleaner to capture fuel vapor lost from the canister. The supplemen-tary storage bed then .is thoroughly purged by engine air flow when the engine is operating and the substantialIy completely purged supplementary storage bed is able to capture substantially all fuel vapor which ma~.be lost from the canister.
The details as well as other features and ad-vantages of this invention are set forth in the remainder of the specification and are shown in the accompanying drawings.
Summary of the Drawings In the drawings:
: Figure 1 is a schematic view of an engine with an evaporation control system employing this invention, and Figure 2 is a sectional view of the engine air cleaner showing the supplementary fuel vapor storage~bed and the vent connection for the canister.
Best Mode for Carrying Out the Invention Referring first to Figure 1, an engine 10 has a carburetor 12 and an air cleaner 1~ which define an air induction passage 16.
Carburetor 12 has a fuel bowl 18 which receives liquid fuel from a fuel tank 20 through a fuel line (not shown). Fuel bowl 18 delivers fuel to the induction passage 16 in a conventional manner and has an internal vent 22 to maintain the fuel bowl pressure equal to that . . . ..
~ ~245~4 in the inlet portion of induction passage 16.
A fuel tank vent line 24 extends from fuel ~:
tank 20 to a fuel vapor storage canister 26, and a fuel bowl vent line 28 extends from carburetor fuel bowl 18 to canister 26.
Canister 26 is formed of a cupped housing 30 closed at the bottom by a grid 32 and a cover 34. An annular partition 36 divides the interior of canister 26 into an inner section 38 and an outer section 40 each of which is filled with activated charcoal to ~orm a main fuel vapor storage bed. Tank vent line 24 opens through a fitting 42 into the upper portion of outer section 40 while bowl vent line 28 is connected through a fitting 44 to the upper portion of inner section 38.
A bowl vent valve 46 disposed in fi-tting 44 is biased by a spring 48 to permit vapor flow from fuel bowl 18 through bowl vent line 28 to canister 26 when the engine is not operating. When the engine i.s operating, a diaphragm 50 responds to the subatmospheric pressure in induction passage 16 downstream of the thro-ttle 52 and lifts vent valve 46 against the bias of spring 48 to close fitting 44.
Upon an increase in temperature when the engine is not operating, air and fuel vapor are dis-placed from fuel bowl 18 and fuel tank 20 and flowthrough vent lines 28 and 24 to canister 26. The flow travels downwardly through the lnner and outer sections 38 and 40 of the main fuel vapor s-torage bed, into the plenum 54 between ~rid 32 and cover 34, and then upwardly through a standpipe 56 and a canister vent line 58 to air cleaner 14; The activated charcoal in the fuel vapor storage bed captures -the fuel vapor to prevent its loss to the ~3~
atmosphere~
During engine operation, the subatmospheric pressure in induction passage 16 downstream of throttle 52 draws air cleaned by the filter element 60 ~rom air 5 cleaner 14 through the canister vent line 58 and stand- , `
pipe 56 into plenum 54 and then upwardly through the inner and outer sections 38 and 40 of the fuel vapor storage bed to a purge fitting 62. Such air flow purges the fuel vapor from the charcoal so that the charcoal may again adsorb fuel vapor when the engine is not operating.
The purge air flow rate is determined by a pair of purge ' orifices_63a and 63b.
If desired, a diaphragm purge valve 64 may close across purge fittiny 62 under the bias of a spring 66 during closed throttle engine operation. When throttle 52 is opened, the subatmospheric induction passage pres-sure therebelow lifts diaphragm valve 64 against t'he bias of spring 66 to open purge fitting 62. An additional purge orifice 63c may bypass purge valve 64 to allow a limited purge flow during closed throttl~ engine operation.
Canister 26 is highly effective in capturing the fuel vàpor displaced from the fuel bowl 18 and fuel tank 20. However, the flow of air and fuel vapor through the fuel vapor storage bed may cause some fuel vapor to be purged from the bed and be carried ~hrough plenum 54, standpipe 56, canister vent line 58, and air cleaner 14 to the atmosphere. To capture such fuel vapor, we have provided a supplementary fuel va~Qr storage~",bed ~,8,; in air cleaner 14. As shown particularly in Figure 2, bed 68 is located inwardly of filter element 60 and has an annular configuration; it is formed of activated charcoal which is retained by inner and outer screens 70 and 72 mounted in upper and lower caps 74 and 76. Bed 68 is secured to a lower air cleaner plate 78 and extends upwardly part way to an upper air cleaner plate 80.
~2~S~
Accordingly, it will be observed that a portion of the engine induction air flow passes through bed 68 to purge fueI vapor therefrom while some of the engine induction air flow passes through -the space 82 between bed 68 and upper air cleaner plate 80. Fùel vapor stored in bed 68 thus may be substantially completely purged by air flow through induction passage 16, yet bed ~8 does not overly restrict the induction air flowO
Canister vent line 58 is connected to air ~
cleaner 14 through a fit-ting 84 disposed inwardly of \
bed 68. If desired, a diffuser (not shown) may be dis posed over fitting 84 to assure dispersion of any fuel vapor passing through'canister vent line 58 into bed 68.
Air cleaner 14 includes a,thermal sensor 86 and a vacuum operated snorkel damper mechanism 88 (Figure 1), such as that shown in U.S. patent 3,459,163 issued August 5, 1969 in the name of D. B. Lewis, to maintain the induction air flow at a substantially constant temperature.' With this cons~ruction, any fuel vapor stored in supplementary bed 68 will be substantially completely purged by engine'induction air flow through air cleaner 14 when the engine is operating to thereby permit sub-stantially ail fuel vapor lost from canister 26 to be stored in bed 68 when the engine is not operating.
It will be appreciated of course, that bed 68 also may capture fuel vapor displaced from carburetor fuel bowl 18 through internal vent 22 and that similar air cleaner mounted fuel vapor storage beds have been proposed in the past. ~lowever, until our invention it was not recognized that -the thorough purge experienced by such an ai.r cleaner mounted storage bed ls necessary if a supplementary fuel vapor storage bed is to be used to capture fuel vapor lost from a main storage bed.
