ABSTRACT:
A fuel vapor treatment apparatus for a vehicle for absorbing the fuel vapor emanating from a fuel tank has a diffusing chamber at the portion into which an inlet port opens. The fuel vapor introduced through the inlet port diffuses in this diffusing chamber, by which the component of the fuel vapor velocity in the direction in which the fuel vapor is adsorbed by the adsorbent is reduced. In consequence, the capability with which the canister adsorbs the fuel vapor is increased so as to allow a large volume of fuel vapor which flows at a high flow rate to be adsorbed.
