Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates generally to fuel tanks for vehicles and, more particularly, to a plastic fuel tank for a vehicle.
- It is known to provide a fuel tank such as a metal or plastic fuel tank in a vehicle to hold fuel to be used by an engine of the vehicle. Typically, the fuel tank has a shell with a tank opening and a unit installed into the tank via the tank opening. An access cover is placed over the tank opening and is used to assemble and service the fuel pump and other related components. The access cover must be sealed to prevent fuel leakage and evaporative emissions. However, these fuel tanks may not be acceptable to meet zero evaporative emissions.
- One commercial approach to resolve these concerns is to provide a non-vented fuel system to meet zero evaporative emissions. However, this requires a fuel tank to withstand higher pressures and vacuum levels than in the past.
- Therefore, it is desirable to provide a plastic fuel tank for a vehicle that has can withstand higher pressure and vacuum levels than current tanks. It is also desirable to provide an internal support structure to support upper and lower half shells of plastic fuel tank.
- It is, therefore, one object of the present invention to provide a new plastic fuel tank for a vehicle.
- It is another object of the present invention to provide a plastic fuel tank that has a support structure disposed inside the fuel tank.
- To achieve the foregoing objects, the present invention is a fuel tank for a vehicle including a plastic tank shell having a first half shell and a second half shell. The fuel tank also include a support structure having a honeycomb configuration disposed between and connected to the first half shell and the second half shell to provide support to the tank shell.
- One advantage of the present invention is that a new plastic fuel tank is provided for a vehicle. Another advantage of the present invention is that the plastic fuel tank is able to withstand much higher pressure and vacuum levels than conventional plastic fuel tanks. Yet another advantage of the present invention is that the plastic fuel tank incorporates an internal support structure to improve tank durability under pressure and vacuum. Still another advantage of the present invention is that the plastic fuel tank meets zero evaporative emissions requirements with a vacuum system. A further advantage of the present invention is that the plastic fuel tank allows thinner walls to be used than in conventional plastic fuel tanks and all components can be easily mounted inside the fuel tank. Yet a further advantage of the present invention is that the plastic fuel tank uses conventional manufacturing processes. Still a further advantage of the present invention is that the plastic fuel tank incorporates an internal support structure to provide a strong plastic fuel tank at a lower cost than a metal fuel tank.
- Other objects, features, and advantages of the present invention will be readily appreciated, as the same becomes better understood, after reading the subsequent description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
- FIG. 1 is an exploded perspective view of a fuel tank, according to the present invention.
- Referring to the drawings and in particular FIG. 1, one embodiment of a
fuel tank 10, according to the present invention, is shown for a vehicle (not shown). Thefuel tank 10 includes a tank shell, generally indicated at 12. In the embodiment illustrated, thetank shell 12 is of a generally rectangular type. Thetank shell 12 includes a first orlower half shell 14 and a second orupper half shell 16. Thelower half shell 14 has abase wall 18 and aside wall 20 around a periphery of thebase wall 18 and extending generally perpendicular thereto. Theside wall 20 may have a flange (not shown) extending outwardly and generally perpendicular thereto. Theupper half shell 16 has abase wall 24 and aside wall 26 around a periphery of thebase wall 24 and extending generally perpendicular thereto. Theside wall 26 may have a flange (not shown) extending outwardly and generally perpendicular thereto. The flanges 22 of thelower half shell 14 andupper half shell 16, respectively, are joined together by suitable means such as by thermoforming, compression molding, or friction welding. Thelower half shell 14 andupper half shell 16 are made of a plastic material such as a thermoformable plastic. - Referring again to FIG. 1, the
fuel tank 10 includes an internal support structure, generally indicated at 30, disposed between and attached to thelower half shell 14 andupper half shell 16. In one embodiment, thesupport structure 30 is honeycomb shaped with a plurality ofcavities 32 that are of a generally cylindrical and pentagonal cross-sectional shaped. Thesupport structure 30 has a plurality ofside walls 32 extending axially between thebase walls side walls 32 form thecavities 32 in a closed cell configuration. Theside walls 32 are joined to thelower half shell 14 andupper half shell 16, respectively, by suitable means such as welding. Thesupport structure 30 is made of a plastic material such as a thermoformable plastic. It should be appreciated that thesupport structure 30 may have a suitable honeycomb shape other than pentagonal such as triangular, elliptical, rectangular, or circular shaped. It should also be appreciated that thesupport structure 30 is integral, unitary, and one-piece. - In manufacturing the
fuel tank 10, several conventional processes may be used. Preferably, thelower half shell 14 andupper half shell 16 are formed by a conventional vacuum forming process. Vacuum formedplastic fuel tank 10 is made of multi-layer extruded sheets and vacuum formed into two shells, one to make theupper half shell 16 of thefuel tank 10 and the other for thelower half shell 14 of thefuel tank 10. Thesupport structure 30 is formed by extrusion or injection molding. Thesupport structure 30 is placed between thelower half shell 14 andupper half shell 16 of thefuel tank 10. Thesupport structure 30 is welded to thelower half shell 14 and theupper half shell 16 to support pressure loads. Theupper half shell 16 is also welded to thelower half shell 14 in a mold, right after vacuum forming, creating a bond line where the two shell halves are fused. Acircumferential steel band 40 may be added to the outside of thetank shell 12 to support the hoop stresses obtained from pressure. It should be appreciated that the support provided by thesupport structure 30 in thetank shell 12 with 6.0 millimeters (mm) walls will support up to eight pounds per square inch (8 psi) in vacuum at 80° C. and up to four pounds per square inch (4 psi) pressure at 80° C. as along as theplastic fuel tank 10 has no more than 100 mm of span in any direction unsupported. It should also be appreciated that if the tank wall is a different thickness, the span to thickness ratio should be approximately 17 to 1. It should further be appreciated that, for manufacturing purposes, there must be a 2 mm to 10 mm gap between theside walls fuel tank 10 and thesupport structure 30. - The present invention has been described in an illustrative manner. It is to be understood that the terminology, which has been used, is intended to be in the nature of words of description rather than of limitation.
- Many modifications and variations of the present invention are possible in light of the above teachings. Therefore, within the scope of the appended claims, the present invention may be practiced other than as specifically described.
