Definitions

  • means may be provided to create a zone of negative pressure as liquid enters a vessel by means of a fluid dispensing nozzle.
  • a fluid dispensing nozzle For example, in relation to the delivery of fuel to a vehicle tank.
  • the nozzle is provided with diverting means and at least one aperture through the side of the nozzle in the region of the diverting means for drawing vapour into the nozzle by means of the negative pressure created by the flow of liquid around the diverting means.
  • Figures 3 to 7 of the accompanying drawings illustrate the components of the vapour recovery system in further detail.
  • Figure 3 illustrates the swirl-imparting chamber 10 or cage that is a generally cylindrical vessel sealed at both ends and having a side branch 21 that is connected to the main delivery pipe 8.
  • the chamber has a cylindrical hollow member 14 extending through the centre thereof and has a cylindrical base component 22 that is relieved of material to allow petrol to flow therethrough (see Figures 3 and 4).
  • the base component has a central collar 21 for passage of the member 14 and the upper edge of the component is provided with an inwardly extending rim 24, the surface of which is angled, preferably 10° to 50° from the horizontal.
  • Three blades 26 are provided at spaced apart intervals extending from the central collar to the perimeter of the base.
