이하, 본 발명의 바람직한 실시예를 명세서에 첨부된 도면을 참조하여 보다 상세하게 설명한다.Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
도 2는 본 발명에 따른 연료 탱크 밸브의 구조를 개략적으로 도시한 도면이다. 도 2에 도시된 바와 같이, 본 발명에 따른 연료 탱크 밸브(1)는 연료 탱크(2)의 상부에 원형으로 오목하게 형성된 좌면(3)에 밀봉링(4)이 안치된다. 밀봉링(4)은 도 3에 도시된 바와 같은 마운팅 플레이트(5)에 의하여 연료 탱크(2)의 좌면(3)에 고정된다. 즉, 마운팅 플레이트(5)는 밀봉링(4)이 좌면에 안치된 상태에서 연료 탱크(2)의 상부면에 스폿 용접과 같은 수단에 의하여 연료 탱크(2)의 상부면에 고정 설치된다.2 is a view schematically showing the structure of a fuel tank valve according to the present invention. As shown in FIG. 2, the fuel tank valve 1 according to the present invention is enclosed with a sealing ring 4 on a seating surface 3 formed in a circular concave shape on top of the fuel tank 2. The sealing ring 4 is fixed to the seat 3 of the fuel tank 2 by a mounting plate 5 as shown in FIG. 3. That is, the mounting plate 5 is fixed to the upper surface of the fuel tank 2 by means such as spot welding on the upper surface of the fuel tank 2 in a state where the sealing ring 4 is placed on the left surface.
마운팅 플레이트(5)는 다수의, 바람직하게는 4개의 고정편(7)이 대략 90°의 각도로 제공된다. 고정편(7)은 상부로 직립하도록 일정 간격으로 배치되며 각각 경사 삽입홈(8)을 구비한다.The mounting plate 5 is provided with a plurality of, preferably four fixing pieces 7 at an angle of approximately 90 °. The fixing pieces 7 are arranged at regular intervals so as to be upright, and have inclined insertion grooves 8, respectively.
밸브(1)는 상부에 제공되는 원형의 링 부재(6, 또는 플랜지)가 용접에 의하여 설치되고, 링 부재(6)의 상부에는 링 형상의 록킹 플레이트(9)가 배치된다. 록킹 플레이트(9)는 고정편(7)의 경사 삽입홈(8)에 탄성적으로 결합되도록 상방으로 일정각도, 15°의 각도로 경사져 돌출되는 다수의 돌출편(10)을 가진다. 링 부재(6)는 밸브(1)가 연료 탱크(2)에 설치되었을 때, 하부면이 밀봉링(4)을 하방으로 가압한다. 돌출편(10)이 경사 삽입홈(8)에 삽입되었을 때, 록킹 플레이트(9)의 하부에 위치된 링 부재(6)는 돌출편(10)의 경사부에 의하여 마운팅 플레이트(5)의 하부에 위치된 밀봉링(4)의 상부면에 탄성적으로 접촉된다.The valve 1 is provided with a circular ring member 6 or a flange provided at the upper part by welding, and a ring-shaped locking plate 9 is disposed at the upper part of the ring member 6. The locking plate 9 has a plurality of protruding pieces 10 which are inclined upward at a predetermined angle and an angle of 15 ° upward so as to be elastically coupled to the inclined insertion groove 8 of the fixing piece 7. The ring member 6 presses the sealing ring 4 downward when the valve 1 is installed in the fuel tank 2. When the protruding piece 10 is inserted into the inclined inserting groove 8, the ring member 6 located below the locking plate 9 is lowered by the inclined portion of the protruding piece 10. It is elastically in contact with the upper surface of the sealing ring 4 located at.
그러므로, 돌출편(10)은 자체의 탄성력과 밀봉링(4)의 탄성 가압력에 의하여 고정편(7)의 경사 삽입홈(8)의 상부면에 탄성적으로 접촉한다. 상기된 바와 같이, 밸브(1)는 돌출편(10) 및 밀봉링(4)의 탄성력에 의하여 연료 탱크(2)에 탄성적으로설치된다.Therefore, the protruding piece 10 elastically contacts the upper surface of the inclined insertion groove 8 of the fixing piece 7 by its elastic force and the elastic pressing force of the sealing ring 4. As described above, the valve 1 is elastically installed in the fuel tank 2 by the elastic force of the protruding piece 10 and the sealing ring 4.
마운팅 플레이트(5)의 고정편(7)에 형성된 경사 삽입홈(8)은 돌출편(10)이 용이하게 삽입되도록 홈의 입구를 향하여 15°로 상방으로 경사진 경사면이 외측에 위치되고, 경사면의 내측에 평면부를 가진다.The inclined insertion groove 8 formed in the fixing piece 7 of the mounting plate 5 has an inclined surface that is inclined upward by 15 ° toward the inlet of the groove so that the protruding piece 10 is easily inserted, and the inclined surface is located outside. It has a flat portion inside.
상기된 바와 같은 구조를 가지는 본 발명에 따른 연료 탱크 밸브(1)의 연료 탱크(2)에 대한 설치는 고정편(7)들 사이에 돌출편(10)이 위치된 상태에서, 돌출편(10)이 고정편(7)의 경사 삽입홈(8)에 삽입되도록 록킹 플레이트(9)를 회전시키는 것에 의하여 돌출편(10)이 경사 삽입홈(8)에 탄성적으로 결합되며, 이러한 상태에서, 밀봉링(4)의 탄성력이 마운팅 플레이트(5)를 통하여 록킹 플레이트(9)에 전달됨으로써, 밸브(1)가 연료 탱크(2)에 탄성적으로 결합 설치된다.The installation of the fuel tank 2 of the fuel tank valve 1 according to the present invention having the structure as described above, the projection piece 10 in a state in which the projection piece 10 is located between the fixing pieces 7. ) Is projected elastically coupled to the inclined insertion groove (8) by rotating the locking plate (9) to be inserted into the inclined insertion groove (8) of the fixing piece (7), in this state, The elastic force of the sealing ring 4 is transmitted to the locking plate 9 through the mounting plate 5 so that the valve 1 is elastically coupled to the fuel tank 2.
상기된 바와 같은 구조를 가지는 본 발명에 따른 자동차의 연료 탱크 밸브에 의하면, 종래의 연료 탱크 밸브의 설치에 필요한 볼트의 사용을 피하고, 밸브를 연료 탱크에 탄성적으로 설치함으로써, 종래에 비하여 보다 간단한 설치 구조 및 보다 적은 수의 설치 부품에 의하여, 조립이 용이할 뿐만 아니라 부품수가 감소됨으로써, 연료 탱크 밸브의 제조 비용이 저렴하게 될 수 있다는 이점을 가진다.According to the fuel tank valve of the automobile according to the present invention having the structure as described above, by avoiding the use of bolts required for the installation of the conventional fuel tank valve, and by elastically installing the valve in the fuel tank, it is simpler than conventional The installation structure and fewer installation parts have the advantage that not only the assembly is easy but also the number of parts is reduced, so that the manufacturing cost of the fuel tank valve can be made low.
