Dispensing nozzle with drip reduction

A fluid dispensing nozzle including a nozzle body having a fluid path and a suction path therein. The nozzle includes a suction generator configured to generate a suction force in the suction path when fluid to be dispensed flows through the fluid path. The nozzle further includes a shut-off device having a suction chamber fluidly coupled to the suction path. The shut-off device is configured such that when the suction path is blocked during fluid dispensing the shut-off device prevents the nozzle from dispensing fluid through the fluid path. The suction chamber includes a lip extending around a perimeter thereof. An opening is formed in or extends through the lip, the opening providing fluid communication between the suction chamber and the suction path to enable liquid to flow from the suction chamber to the suction path.

An automatic shut-off fluid nozzle having a primary fluid path, a vacuum-actuated fluid shut-off assembly in the fluid path, said shut-off shutting off flow through the fluid path when the pressure chamber is subjected to a predetermined vacuum. The nozzle having a venturi port in said fluid path and connected to a vacuum channel, and a vacuum vent extending away from the vacuum channel, said vacuum vent communicating with a low vacuum environment. The nozzle further having a segregated fluid channel in the primary fluid path, the venturi port communicating with said segregated fluid channel, such that the flow of fluid past the venturi port creates a venturi vacuum in the vacuum channel. The vacuum exhausts the vacuum through the vent port when the vent port is in an open condition, and creates a vacuum in the vacuum-actuated fluid shut-off assembly when said vent port is in a closed condition.

FUEL TANK FILL PIPE ASSEMBLY
20200047608 · 2020-02-13 ·

The present disclosure is directed to a fuel tank fill pipe assembly configured to conduct liquid fuel from a fuel-dispensing nozzle to a fuel tank. The fuel tank fill pipe assembly includes a filler head assembly shaped to receive the fuel-dispensing nozzle and a filler pipe that extends from the filler head assembly toward the fuel tank. In illustrated embodiments, a coupler is included for attaching the filler head assembly to the filler pipe while blocking fuel vapor from escaping the fuel tank fill pipe assembly so that hydrocarbons present in the fuel vapor are not released into the environment.

DISPENSING METER FOR FLUID DISPENSING

A handheld fluid meter includes a cartridge valve controlling the flow of fluid through the handheld meter. The cartridge valve includes a valve cartridge and a valve stem disposed within the valve cartridge. The cartridge valve guides the valve stem and provides the only sealing surface for the dynamic seals and control seal disposed on the valve stem. The handheld meter dispenses through a nozzle, which includes an overmolded stem tip that generates a laminar fluid flow as the fluid exits the nozzle. The overmolded stem tip is a compliant material. The handheld fluid meter includes circuitry configured to invert the orientation of a visual output provided by a display of the handheld fluid meter to facilitate installation of the handheld fluid meter for use in an oil bar application.

ANTI-LEAK ARRANGEMENT APPLICABLE TO GAS SUPPLY NOZZLES
20200002155 · 2020-01-02 · ·

The LNG fuelling nozzles are plugged to the vehicles propelled by natural gas specifically in a coupling means of the fuel tanks. During the unplugging of said nozzles once the tank has been filled cause always inevitably a gas leak and in the event of a leak during the filling there is a leak near the user which, in addition to be hazardous, pollute the environment and economically harms the user.

For this reason the invention proposes a solution consisting of channeling the gas from these leaks to a supplementary tank and, from it to the supply tank, recovering all the leaks, for which a pipe is used as main elements of the device, which is coupled to the bayonet by means of a seal connector made of Teflon or similar material and, a check valve at the inlet of the supplementary tank, said seal can be incorporated either in the bayonet or in the receptacle.
