Embodiment Construction

[0015] One or more specific embodiments of the invention are described below. In an effort to provide a concise description of these embodiments, not all features of an actual implementation may be described in the specification. It should be appreciated that in the development of any of these actual implementations (as in any engineering or design project), a large number of implementation-specific decisions may have to be made in order to achieve the developer's specific goals, such as compliance with system-related and There are business-related limitations, which may vary for other implementations. Also, it should be appreciated that such a development effort might be complex and time consuming, but would nevertheless be a routine undertaking of design, production, and fabrication for those of ordinary skill in the art having the benefit of this specification.

[0016] When introducing elements of various embodiments of this specification, the articles "a", "an", "the" an...

Abstract

In one embodiment, a method for manufacturing a fluid storage tank assembly for an off-road vehicle includes disposing a support ring (62) within a cavity of a rotational mold, in which the cavity is shaped to form a fill spout (52) of the fluid storage tank assembly. The method further includes flowing a liquid polymeric material (64) within the rotational mold such that the liquid polymeric material enters the cavity, directly contacts the support ring (62), and bonds to the support ring (62) as the liquid polymeric material (64) hardens.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to off-road vehicles, and more particularly to fluid storage tank assemblies for off-road vehicles. Background technique [0002] Certain off-road vehicles are powered by a diesel engine that produces exhaust. Exhaust gases may include undesirable by-products such as nitrogen oxides (NOx), carbon monoxide, and particulate material. To reduce emissions of these by-products, vehicle exhaust systems may inject DEF from a diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) tank, such as a fluid storage tank, into the exhaust stream. Due to the larger size of some off-road vehicles (eg tractors) using DEF, a hose can be connected to the first filling nozzle on the DEF tank in order to allow the tank to be filled more easily. More specifically, in some embodiments, the DEF tank may include a second filling nozzle disposed on a different side of the off-road vehicle than the fuel filling nozzle. In this way, a hose can be connected to the fi...
