Embodiment Construction

[0039] For the sake of simplicity, the fuel vapor storage and recovery device according to the present invention is hereinafter referred to as a canister (with reference number 1 ). The canister comprises a plastic housing 2 defining a first outer compartment 3 and a second inner compartment 4 . The housing is in its top region ( figure 1 Canister 1 is shown in its installed position) comprising tank port 5 , purge port 6 and atmosphere vent 7 .

[0040] As previously mentioned, the carbon canister 1 is at least partially filled with sorbent material, for example in the form of a granular carbon bed for storing and receiving evaporative emissions from the fuel tank of a motor vehicle. For this purpose, the canister 1 is connected via the tank opening 5 to the discharge line of the fuel tank.

[0041] Evaporative fuel emissions occur primarily due to discharge from the fuel tank of the vehicle. Because the fuel is volatile, the air in the fuel tank is usually heavily laden w...
