    摘要: A tank manufactured from a plastic material. The tank includes a reinforcement member. The reinforcement member includes a first portion made of a first material weldable to the plastic material of the tank and a second portion made of a second material having a tensile stress at break which is three to nine times larger than the tensile stress at yield of the first material. The second portion includes at least one through-hole, and the first material extends in the at least one through-hole and at opposite sides of the second portion adjacent the at least one through-hole.

    摘要: A vehicle storage system with vapor control. The storage system includes: a vehicle tank including a vapor outlet, a filter unit including a filter inlet and outlet, a housing including a first port communicating with the vapor outlet, a second port communicating with the filter inlet, a third port communicating with the filter outlet, and a fourth port. A closure body is moveably arranged in the housing, the closure body configured to: close the third and fourth ports in a first position of the closure body, create in the housing a barrier between a first volume and a second volume in a second position of the closure body, the first volume forming a passage between the first and second ports, and the second volume forming a passage between the third and fourth ports, and close the first and second ports in a third position of the closure body.
