DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to an improvement in the filter structure of a canister interposed between an engine intake system and a fuel tank in order to prevent gasoline evaporation loss when the engine is stopped.

化器の燃料吐出側をエンジン停止状態ではシヤツ
トバルブにて閉じる必要がある。
When a vehicle is placed in a sealed room, the engine is operated by supplying gasoline to the carburetor from outside the sealed room, and the amount of gasoline evaporation, that is, the amount of hydrocarbon (HC) evaporation, is measured after a predetermined period of time has passed after the engine has stopped.
Since evaporation loss from the carburetor accounts for most of the loss, it is necessary to close the fuel discharge side of the carburetor with a shut valve when the engine is stopped.

ところが気化器の燃料吐出側を閉じると、燃料
タンク内の蒸発ガソリンの圧が上昇するため、
HCを除去して燃料タンク内を大気に開放しなけ
ればならない。
However, when the fuel discharge side of the carburetor is closed, the pressure of vaporized gasoline in the fuel tank increases,
HC must be removed and the inside of the fuel tank must be opened to the atmosphere.

一方除去したHCをエンジン運転時に吸気系へ
送給することができれば、蒸発ガソリンの有効利
用の面で非常に好都合である。
On the other hand, if the removed HC could be fed to the intake system during engine operation, it would be very convenient in terms of effective use of evaporated gasoline.

Therefore, a canister filled with activated carbon powder is interposed between the fuel tank and the downstream side of the intake system, such as a ventilator pipe, so that the evaporated gasoline is adsorbed by the activated carbon powder when the engine is stopped, and only clean air is released to the atmosphere. This prevents gasoline evaporation loss, and when the engine is running, the gasoline adsorbed on activated carbon powder is sent to the intake system along with fresh air using negative pressure in the intake system, thereby making effective use of evaporated gasoline. can be achieved.

By the way, a perforated plate is installed on the atmosphere-opening side of the canister, and a dense filter and a coarse filter may be successively stacked on the activated carbon side surface of the perforated plate, but the perforated plate is used to fill and hold activated carbon powder. Since it also serves as an auxiliary plate, its perforation rate is limited, and since the dense filter is in close contact with this porous plate, foreign matter such as dust may clog the dense filter in the opening when outside air is taken in. This results in a decrease in the porosity.

The present invention was developed to solve the above problems, and its purpose is to prevent the decrease in the porosity of the perforated plate and to ensure that the atmosphere is released and the outside air is sucked after HC removal. It is an object of the present invention to provide a filter structure in a canister for preventing gasoline evaporation loss of an engine, which can increase the life of the engine.

First, when the engine is stopped, the evaporated gasoline in the fuel tank flows through the pipe 21, the two-way valve 22, and the pipe 23 to the activated carbon chamber 10 in the canister 1, and the evaporated gasoline components are added to the charcoal powder 11. At this time, since the valve 3 at the top of the canister 1 is closed, only the clean air from which hydrocarbons (HC) have been removed by the charcoal powder passes through the gap between the upper coarse filter 15 and dense filter 14. Openings 13 in grid plate 12
... is released to the outside air from the outside air communication pipe 6 via the space S, the fine filter 16 and the coarse filter 17 below. In this case, fine particles generated by the vibration of the charcoal powder 11 due to the air flow flowing from the top to the bottom inside the canister 1 are sieved in two stages by the upper coarse filter 15 and dense filter 14, and only the clean air is released into the atmosphere. be discharged.

When the engine is running, the intake system operates, so the valve 3 at the top of the canister 1 is connected to the pipe 24.
It opens due to the suction action of negative pressure in the intake manifold 31 through the canister 1, and as a result, a suction force due to the negative pressure downstream of the vent lily pipe 33 through the chamber 4 and the pipe line 25 acts on the inside of the canister 1. is sucked into the space S on the lower surface side of the grid plate 12 through the atmosphere communication pipe 6 and through the lower coarse filter 17 and fine filter 16. In this case, foreign matter such as dust in the atmosphere is first sieved in two stages by the coarse filter 17 and then by the dense filter 16, so that only clean air passes through the gap between the two filters 17 and 16 into the space S.
The foreign matter will not enter the openings 13 of the grid plate 12 as in the conventional case, and the upper dense filter 14 will not be clogged with foreign matter.
Only clean air can be drawn into the space S.

In addition, since substantially identical two-layer filters 14, 15 and 16, 17 are arranged above and below the grid plate 12, the cleanliness of the purified air is further increased by the mutual action of the filters, and the charcoal powder 11...
The upper filters 14 and 15 are used to screen foreign substances in the atmosphere, and the lower filters 16 and 17 are used to screen foreign substances in the atmosphere.
The life of the filter structure can be increased because the load can be reliably shared.

As is clear from the above explanation, according to the filter structure of the present invention, a dense filter and a coarse filter are sequentially disposed above the perforated plate, and a space is formed below the perforated plate to accommodate the dense filter and the coarse filter. Because of the sandwich structure, which is made up of sequentially arranged vents, not only can clean air be released to the atmosphere, but also, especially when inhaling outside air with a large amount of passage, by maintaining the above-mentioned space, the perforation ratio of the perforated plate can be sufficiently ensured to inhale outside air. Furthermore, by sharing the filtering function inside and outside the canister with the upper and lower two-layer filter, it is possible to achieve a significant increase in the overall life of the canister.
Moreover, since the above can be realized with a sandwich structure that does not take up a large amount of space, it has many advantages such as being advantageous in terms of space.
