Abstract
A canister includes a first chamber and a second chamber, an inner wall, a charge port, a purge port, an atmosphere port, and an insulator. An adsorbent is placed in the first chamber and the second chamber. The inner wall is located adjacent to the first chamber and the second chamber, and partitions the first chamber and the second chamber. The insulator is provided to at least one of the first chamber or the second chamber. The insulator is arranged between the adsorbent and the inner wall so as to insulate the adsorbent that is placed in the first chamber or the second chamber, to which the insulator is provided, from the inner wall.
Claims7
A canister including a casing in which an adsorbent to adsorb evaporated fuel generated in a fuel tank of a vehicle is placed, the canister comprising:
- a first chamber and a second chamber provided in the casing, the adsorbent being placed in the first chamber and the second chamber;
- an inner wall formed as a part of the casing and located adjacent to the first chamber and the second chamber, the inner wall partitioning the first chamber and the second chamber;
- a charge port configured to allow the evaporated fuel to flow into the casing, the charge port being provided to the first chamber;
- a purge port configured to discharge the evaporated fuel adsorbed by the adsorbent out of the casing, the purge port being provided to the first chamber;
- an atmosphere port configured to allow an atmosphere to flow into the casing, the atmosphere port being provided to the second chamber;
- and
- an insulator provided to at least one of the first chamber or the second chamber,
- wherein the insulator is arranged between the adsorbent and the inner wall so as to insulate the adsorbent that is placed in the first chamber or the second chamber, to which the insulator is provided, from the inner wall.
