Abstract: A fuel delivery system for an internal combustion engine that includes an electric-motor fuel pump and an electronic control circuit for applying electrical power to the pump motor from a source of d.c. potential. The electronic control circuit is responsive to voltage level at the source of d.c. potential for automatically boosting electrical power applied to the pump motor when voltage available at the source decreases to a preselected level. In the preferred embodiments, the pump motor is a d.c. motor, and the electronic control circuit takes the form of a d.c.-to-d.c. convertor having a transformer and a rectifier circuit coupling the transformer to the motor. Power switches apply alternating current to the transformer when voltage available at the d.c. power source is inadequate, thereby increasing or boosting power applied to the motor through the rectifier circuit.

Abstract: A no-return loop fuel injection system supplies fuel from a fuel pump to an injector fuel rail, through a fuel line. A biased closed pressure control valve communicates with the fuel line and has a valve head preferably of a diaphragm type carrying a fuel side having first and second areas which are segregated and defined by a valve seat when the pressure control valve is closed. An opposite second side of the pressure control valve is exposed to a reference pressure and a closure biasing force. The pressure control valve opens when a hydraulic opening force induced by a fuel pressure exerted upon the first area, plus a fuel pressure exerted upon the second area, is greater than the net reference pressure and closure biasing forces. Preferably, the first area is smaller than the second area, thus manipulating the effects of the fuel pressures exerted upon the first and second areas with respect to opening the valve. When the pressure control valve is open, the system operating pressure exposed to both the first and second areas is sufficient to produce the hydraulic force necessary to keep the valve open. Preferably, the pressure control valve is part of a pressure valve assembly of a fuel pump module located inside a fuel tank. The pressure valve assembly preferably has a flow check valve orientated in a parallel flow configuration to the pressure control valve when the fuel pump is of a variable speed type, or, for systems utilizing constant speed pumps the check valve is replaced with a flow bypass orifice.

Abstract: An optical fuel level sensor for providing an electronic signal representative of the fuel level within a fuel tank, generally comprising a waveguide body, a photo source, and a photo receiver. The waveguide body can either be of a dual-tapered or single-taper shape and includes numerous tiered facets, which are angled surfaces located on the outer periphery of the waveguide. When the fuel level within the fuel tank is above a particular tiered facet, light that impinges that facet will refract out of the waveguide, conversely, when the fuel level is below that facet, impinging light will be reflected back into the waveguide such that it is received by the photo receiver. In this manner, the fuel level sensor is able to utilize the reflected light received by the photo receiver to provide an electronic signal representative of the fuel level. Furthermore, a calibration feature may be included which provides calibration information indicating when the fuel level has reached a known, predetermined level.

Abstract: A fuel system with a fuel tank having at least one opening into an interior of the fuel tank, and an electrically operated vent valve having an inlet communicated with the interior of the fuel tank and an outlet for venting fuel vapor from the fuel tank. The vent valve is movable in response to an electric signal between an open position allowing fuel vapor through the outlet and a closed position to restrict fluid flow through the outlet. A controller is operably communicated with the vent valve to control application of an electric signal to the vent valve and thereby control at least in part the movement of the vent valve between its open and closed positions. In one embodiment the controller is responsive to a fill level in the fuel tank to control the position of the vent valve and thereby the fill level attained within the fuel tank.
