ABSTRACT:
A spout for a gasoline nozzle providing vapor control for gasoline vapor produced during the filling of a vehicle tank. The spout includes a curved rigid tube having an inlet end for attachment to an outlet of a gasoline nozzle and an outlet end adapted to extend into the mouth of a fill tube of a vehicle tank. A rigid housing surrounds the tube and has a rearward end in sealing engagement about the tube, a forward end and a vapor outlet port. The housing defines, with the wall of the tube, a vapor receiving chamber therebetween. Vapor passages are located at the forward end of the housing which communicates with the chamber and the port as well as with the vehicle tank. The forward end of the housing is supported by a sleeve having a rearward end which extends into the forward end of the housing and a forward end that extends into the fill tube of the tank, the forward end of the sleeve having openings for the receipt of vapor from the tank which communicate with said passages. A lock pin at the rearward end of the housing engages the housing and the tube to secure the rearward end of the housing on the tube. The forward end of the sleeve is sized to draw air from outside the vehicle tank as well as vapor from within the tank.
