Abstract
A fuel system for a vehicle includes a fuel evaporation gas treatment system configured to control fuel evaporation gas generated inside a fuel tank. The fuel evaporation gas treatment system includes: a gas collection chamber configured to store the fuel evaporation gas discharged from the canister through an atmosphere line connected to the canister; and an outlet of the gas collection chamber is connected to a purge line through a gas intake line so that the fuel evaporation gas stored in the gas collection chamber flows into an engine through the gas intake line and the purge line.
Claims17
A fuel system for a vehicle, the fuel system comprising a fuel evaporation gas treatment system configured to control fuel evaporation gas generated inside a fuel tank, wherein the fuel evaporation gas treatment system comprises:
- a canister configured to allow the fuel evaporation gas flowing into the canister from the fuel tank through a loading line to be adsorbed onto an adsorbent substance so as to be collected in the canister, the canister configured such that the fuel evaporation gas adsorbed onto the adsorbent substance flows into an engine through a purge line connecting the canister to the engine;
- a purge control solenoid valve disposed in a fuel evaporation gas intake path between the canister and the engine;
- and
- a gas collection chamber configured to store the fuel evaporation gas discharged from the canister through an atmosphere line connected to the canister,
- wherein an outlet of the gas collection chamber is connected to the purge line through a gas intake line so that the fuel evaporation gas stored in the gas collection chamber flows to the engine through the gas intake line and the purge line.
