ABSTRACT:
A valve system for use on vehicles for automatic fuel delivery to the vehicle fuel tank. An entry member having a conical passage is arranged on the fuel filler door of the vehicle. A valve body located behind the fuel filler door includes a sliding valve member which alternatively opens and closes a central passageway coupled with the vehicle fuel tank. An actuator system employs an actuation switch as well as a safety switch requiring the ignition of the vehicle to be off. Compressed air is controlled by the switch to open and close the valve member through a control cable. An automatic delivery system is associated with the valve system and employs three tracks orthogonally arranged with one track mounting a fuel nozzle to interact with the valve system.
