Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a fuel tank arrangement for a vehicle, in particular a heavy load vehicle, comprising at least one fuel tank and a fuel line assembly, wherein said fuel line assembly includes at least on fuel supply line for receiving fuel stored in said fuel tank and a fuel return line for returning excessive fuel from a combustion engine to said fuel tank arrangement.
  • Such fuel tank arrangements are already known in the art.
  • One of these fuel tanks is adapted to be a main tank having a pick-up unit for drawing fuel out of this tank and supplying this fuel to a combustion engine.
  • the second tank usually is only provided as a further fuel storing capacity. It is connected with the main tank by means of a supply line, which is usually equipped with a motor-driven pump drawing fuel from the second tank and transferring it to the main tank.
  • the prior art document DE 36 12 194 Cl describes a fuel tank arrangement having a catch compartment wherein the returned excessive fuel is used for drawing fuel from a main tank compartment into a transfer line for supplying it to the catch compartment.
  • the flow of the return fuel is used by means of a spray pump arranged within the main tank compartment. This can lead to an insufficient sucking effect for supplying fuel from the main tank compartment to the catch compartment.
  • EP 0 717 197 A2 describes a certain spray pump for a use in vehicle fuel tank arrangements.
  • WO 91/17355 describes a fuel system, wherein instead of a flow of excessive return fuel received from the combustion engine, a portion of the supply fuel flow supplied by means of a push pump from the tank to the combustion engine is returned and used for pumping fuel from a main tank compartment into a catch compartment.
  • a fuel tank arrangement for a vehicle comprising at least one fuel tank and a fuel line assembly, wherein said fuel line assembly includes at least on fuel supply line for receiving fuel stored in said fuel tank and a fuel return line for returning excessive fuel from a combustion engine to said fuel tank arrangement.
  • said fuel supply line and said fuel return line are connected by a connecting device including a nozzle, such that a fuel flow within said fuel return line is used for drawing fuel stored in said fuel tank via said fuel supply line.
  • the invention provides to use the fuel flow resulting from said excessive fuel returned from the combustion engine back to the fuel tank for generating a pump effect, which in term is used for drawing fuel via the supply line into the main fuel tank. Therefore, an additional motor-driven pump can be omitted and the whole arrangement can be simplified by using a compact connecting device including said pump.
  • said nozzle is formed by a Laval nozzle or a Venturi nozzle.
  • Such nozzle types provide a simple structure and are easily available.
  • the pumping effect provided by such nozzles is sufficient for drawing fuel through the supply line, as discussed above.
  • each nozzle having a low-pressure side which can be used for drawing a fluidic medium into a present flow can be used to implement the invention.
  • said supply discharges into said nozzle on its low-pressure side.
  • the solution according to the invention is in particular applicable to a fuel tank arrangement, which includes two fuel tanks connected to one another by means of said fuel supply line, wherein said connecting device including said nozzle is arranged between said two fuel tanks within the supply line.
  • a first fuel tank is formed as a main tank including a fuel pick-up unit for picking up fuel to be pumped to said combustion engine
  • a second fuel tank is formed as a secondary (passive) tank being connected to said main tank by means of said supply line.
  • the first fuel tank also named main tank or active tank, is said fuel tank which is connected to the combustion engine by means of a fuel pump.
  • the second fuel tank which is also called secondary tank or passive tank, is merely provided to increase the fuel storing capacity.
  • fuel stored within said secondary (passive) fuel tank can be drawn by utilising the return fuel flow from the secondary tank into the main tank.
  • it can be guaranteed with little technical effort, in particular without the requirement of an additional motor-driven pump, to provide a sufficient amount of fuel within the main tank.
  • situations in which the main tank is nearly empty, whereas the secondary (passive) tank is substantially full with fuel can be avoided.
  • said fuel tank includes a main tank compartment and a catch compartment, wherein said main tank compartment is connected to the catch compartment by means of a transfer line.
  • said main tank compartment can be separated from said catch compartment by a partitioning wall, wherein said partitioning wall provides an overflow from said catch compartment into said main tank compartment.
  • said transfer line protrudes over said partitioning wall and leads fuel from said main tank compartment into said catch compartment, wherein said connecting device is arranged within said main tank compartment.
  • said supply line runs out of said fuel tank, wherein said connecting device is arranged outside said fuel tank and wherein said transfer line runs into said catch compartment for leading fuel from said connecting device into said catch compartment.
  • said supply line runs through said partitioning wall and leads fuel from said main tank compartment into said catch compartment, wherein said connecting device is arranged within said catch compartment.
  • the fuel return line always leads to the connection device.
  • said supply line or said transfer line can be provided with a check valve in order to avoid a backflow of fuel through the supply line or transfer line.

  • the secondary (passive) fuel tank 14 is connected with the main fuel tank by means of a fuel supply line 18 and a transfer line 19.
  • the fuel supply line 18 dips into the fuel contained within secondary tank 14 and the fuel transfer line 19 dips into the fuel contained within said main tank 12 by means of their free ends 20 and 22, respectively.
  • a connection device 24 is arranged between the fuel supply line 18 and the transfer line 19, a connection device 24 is arranged.
