In-tank fuel delivery assembly with a pivotably mounted emissions canister

A fuel delivery assembly for insertion into a fuel tank of a vehicle, comprising:

• a fuel pump module including a mounting flange and a reservoir housing carried by the mounting flange;
• an emissions canister pivotably mounted to the reservoir housing of the fuel pump module;
• and
• at least one flexible conduit extending between the emissions canister and the fuel pump module.

A fuel delivery assembly for insertion into a fuel tank of a vehicle, comprising:

• a fuel pump module including a mounting flange and a reservoir housing carried by the mounting flange;
• a support ring carried by the reservoir housing and including a first pivoting element and a first locking element;
• a carbon canister pivotably mounted to the reservoir housing of the fuel pump module via the support ring and including a second pivoting element;
• and
• at least one flexible conduit extending between the carbon canister and the fuel pump module;
• wherein the pivoting elements are pivotable about a pivot axis to enable the assembly to be positioned in the fuel tank so that respective bearing surfaces of the fuel pump module and carbon canister rest against the bottom of the fuel tank substantially along the same plane, and further wherein the locking elements are engageable to limit pivoting of the carbon canister relative to the fuel pump module to an angle not exceeding 180°.
