See full text

A smooth-opening, low hysteresis, pressure-operated ball head valve connected between a fuel tank and vapor trap in a vehicle fuel system for providing smooth, two-stage, low hysteresis vapor flow. The ball valve element is positioned within a cylindrical retainer in the valve body, and the dimensions of the various valve orifices and the geometry of the retainer are determined in view of a specified lift off pressure and ball weight to achieve these flow characteristics.
