ABSTRACT:
A valve system for the vapor receiving system of a gasoline dispensing nozzle which acts to prevent the flow of liquid gasoline into the vapor return line in the event that the automatic shut-off system of the nozzle fails to turn the nozzle off. The valve system has a valve seat located at the point where the vapor return line connects to the vapor receiving system and a floating member suspended below the valve seat in such a manner that when the vapor receiving chamber fills with gasoline, the floating member covers the valve seat so that no gasoline flows back through the vapor return line. A shield can also be provided to prevent closure of the floating member by the normal flow of vapors.
