Abstract

A fuel tank or a filler pipe for the tank comprising a multilayer wall constituted at least of one layer based on a reinforced thermoplastic composition and of one inner layer, intended to be in contact with the fuel, based on a non-reinforced thermoplastic composition. Use of such a tank/pipe in a hybrid vehicle.

Description

Fuel tank perhaps is used for the filler pipe of this storage tank
The present invention relates to a kind of fuel tank or be used for a kind of filler pipe of this storage tank, and relate to their purposes as the storage tank/pipe in the hybrid power engine vehicle.
Hybrid power engine typically refers to an internal combustion engine and a motor combination.
For hybrid power engine, have a general operation principle, this operation principle is to come service meter, also or operation of combustion engine, perhaps move the two simultaneously according to model.
One of these concrete principles are as follows:
In process segment (when's vehicle is in when static) process, two engines all are closed;
When starting, be the motion that motor is provided with vehicle, until higher speed (25 or 30km/h);
When reaching higher speed, take over by internal combustion engine;
Under situation about quickening fast, two engines move simultaneously, this make it to have equate with the engine of equal-wattage, perhaps even higher acceleration;
In deceleration and deboost phase, kinetic energy is used for to battery charge (should be noted that this function is all not available in current commercially available all hybrid power engines).
This principle causes this internal combustion engine can not move consistently; And therefore cause the cleansing phase of canister (preventing the charcoal filter that fuel vapour is discharged into the atmosphere) normally not carry out; Because in the process of these cleansing phases; The randomly pre-heated air of quilt is recycled through this canister so that make this canister regeneration (that is, so that make the fuel vapour desorption that is attracted to wherein), allows this air to enter into engine afterwards so that burning therein.In addition, motor vehicle driven by mixed power is developed in order to reduce fuel consumption and toxic emission, under the situation that engine performance is worsened, more be difficult to like this or even possibly not carry out engine management so as burning from the fuel vapour of canister.
Therefore; Usually the fuel tank with these engines pressurizes (typically reaching about 300 to 400 millibars pressure) so that the load of restriction canister; Normally a functional element after these ventilation valves carries out by being positioned at for this, and this element is called as FTIV (fuel tank isolating valve).This element comprises a safety valve (being calibrated the maximum working pressure (MWP) to this storage tank) and a kind of electronic-controlled installation, so that can before injecting, make this storage tank be in atmospheric pressure.Consequently, particularly under the situation of plastics storage tank, these storage tanks are compared with the fuel tank of the internal combustion engine of routine must have improved mechanical strength.
Solution on market comprises a kind of metal storage tank with big thickness at present, and this has increased the weight of storage tank considerably and has therefore increased fuel consumption and toxic emission.
Other known solutions for above-mentioned stress problems possibly comprise: increase the wall thickness of plastics storage tank and/or use inside fortifier that these two walls are linked together (bar, separator, or the like), but these solutions have produced adverse effect, reduced the swept volume of storage tank and increased the cost of storage tank for weight usually.Another solution can be to this storage tank provides a plurality of attachment pin (attachment stud) (or a plurality of point (kiss points) that touches, that is, the local solder joint of lower part wall and top wall), but this solution causes the swept volume of storage tank to reduce.
At patent US 5; 020; Described another kind of solution in 687, this solution is a kind of reinforced fabric is attached on the outer wall of storage tank, this attached being performed such: storage tank pass through extrude-coat molded said fabric in the manufacture process of blow molding; Before in mould, introducing parison, fabric is incorporated in the mould, after this parison of blow molding, will obtains this storage tank.
Yet this solution has following several kinds of defectives:
In fact, this fabric has only been produced local enhancing at it by attached position;
See from long-term angle, fuel vapour through the diffusion of this tank wall possibly cause expansion problem, or even the viscosity loss of fabric on the tank wall, therefore reinforced effects is reduced;
Because employed technology, with regard to the geometry of the thickness of fiber and/or mould, exist multiple restriction;
And last: the fortifier of this type is that comparison is expensive.
Therefore a theme of the present invention is a kind of fuel tank or the filler pipe that is used for this storage tank, and it has the mechanical strength of good long term and can not have above-mentioned these defectives.
Thought based on the plastics composite that uses a kind of enhancing; Be a kind of plastics; Wherein disperse/mix (for example: in the molten state of plastics, use an extruder) that a kind of fortifier (specifically being a kind of fibre strengthening thing) is arranged, this itself is known; But in the internal layer of multilayer storage tank (internal layer that promptly comes in contact with fuel), do not use a kind of like this composition, and (if suitably) only in this skin and/or in an intermediate layer, use.In fact; The applicant observes; When the internal layer of storage tank comprises a kind of fortifier (being specially: when it comprises fiber), the impact strength of these storage tanks is decreased to a kind of degree significantly and is made that they no longer can be through these standards of motor vehicle manufacturers defined.On the other hand; (value of this thickness depends on the composition of said layer to have thickness sufficient at the internal layer that a non-enhancing is provided, this internal layer; But this thickness be as general as relative thickness at least 20% or 30% or even 40%) under the condition; No longer observe this reducing, and even be more preferably: in some cases even can observe a kind of substantial improvement.
Therefore the present invention relates to a kind of fuel tank or is used for the filler pipe of this storage tank; This fuel tank or filler pipe comprise a compound wall, and this compound wall is at least by based on one deck of the thermoplastic compounds that strengthens and be intended to contact with fuel and constitute based on an a kind of internal layer of thermoplastic compounds of non-enhancing.
The fuel expection that is used for according to storage tank of the present invention/pipe can be gasoline, diesel oil, bio-fuel etc., and can have 0 to 100% alcohol content.
Statement " storage tank or pipe " is interpreted as being meant through at least two above-mentioned layers are carried out any storage tank or pipe molded or that coextrusion obtains.
Can be used to make and to have any character, as long as it comprises that using one can confirm the maybe mould of the shape of this pipe of this storage tank according to the storage tank of finite length of the present invention or a kind of molded operation of pipe.This molded operation can for example begin or directly be incorporated into the mould through the thermoplastic with gel to carry out from a kind of preformed.
This molded operation can also interrelate with a kind of blow molding operation particularly.It can also follow a follow-up number of assembling steps, especially through welding.If this molded operation begins to carry out from a kind of preformed, then this preformed specifically can through coextrusion or be total to inject and obtain.
Used through coextrusion-blow molding molded, through the molded of injection-welding altogether or through the hot-forming molded very good result that obtained.Preferably, this multilayer storage tank or pipe are to produce through coextrusion-blow molding (blow moulding, blowing).In the latter's situation, all technology that might use a kind of continuous extruding technology or a kind of to build up extruding technology or a kind of order extruding technology, know for those of ordinary skill in the art.
This term " thermoplastic " is interpreted as representing any thermoplastic polymer, comprises thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) and the blend that also has them.Term " polymer " " be construed as expression homopolymers and copolymer (copolymer particularly binary or ternary) the two, for example, random copolymer, linear block copolymers, other block copolymers and graft copolymer etc.
The plastics of this internal layer and the plastics of this enhancement layer can (and preferably) have identical character.In the situation of fuel tank, this is polyolefin normally.Term " polyolefin " is interpreted as being meant that any olefin homo, any copolymer that comprises at least two kinds of different alkene and any comprises by weight the copolymer of at least 50% multiple unit derived from alkene.In blend, can also use several polyolefin.More particularly; Except the polyolefin of pure (virgin); This blend can also comprise polyolefin, or a kind of blend of the multiple regeneration resin of a certain ratio of the regeneration of a certain ratio, and this blend results from (i) and the clout that different phase obtained of making this multilayer storage tank or pipe is ground and/or (ii) the fuel tank that finishes service life regenerated and handle.This blend can also comprise that a kind of polyolefin of plant origin is perhaps from the reproducible source of another kind (biomaterial).
Preferably, this polyolefin is a kind of polyethylene.Obtained very good result through a kind of high density polyethylene (HDPE) (HDPE).
These plastics composites can comprise multiple conventional additives; As a kind of (or multiple) stabilizing agent that provides, lubricant, pigment and other " filler ", yet one or more additives of internal layer do not have reinforced effects and/or so that they do not have a value of appreciable impact to its mechanical property and exist.
Term " enhancing " is construed as; In the context of the present invention; Expression comprise a mixture of a kind of fortifier or multiple fortifier, this or these fortifiers be in the state of dispersion (promptly be in " dissociate " particle that mixes with plastics form, with as particle (fiber) knitting or winding in weaving fiber or felt on the contrary), be in and make it have a value of appreciable impact for the mechanical property of composition.In this stage; Should between (i) microcosmic filler/fortifier and (ii) nano-filled thing, make differentiation; For microcosmic filler/fortifier; Obtained appreciable impact with high fill level (being typically greater than 10%), and for nano-filled thing, obtained huge change for these characteristics with the reinforcement of a few percent only to these characteristics.
Generally, these are fibre strengthening thing (carbon fiber, natural fiber, glass fibre or the like), beading (for example glass beading, hollow beading) generally or small pieces (for example, talcum, clay, imvite, vermiculite, expanded graphite, Graphene).They are fiber preferably.Certainly, except having for the mechanical property of composition those fortifiers of appreciable impact, it has been generally acknowledged that powder (carbon black, chalk, talcum, barium sulfate or the like) is not the fortifier within background of the present invention.In the context of the present invention, glass fibre and the particularly short glass fibre with long have provided good result.For short fiber; Through disperseing to have obtained good result; In HDPE, based on the fiber (specifically being to be equipped with a kind of sizing agent and/or a kind of compatilizer) of E type glass like PE-g-MAH have the diameter between the 10 and 20 μ m and 2 and 8mm between initial length.
According to a preferred variant; Select glass fibre as reinforce; This reinforce is combined (preferably equably with a value particularly; Usually through in extruder, mixing so that produce the masterbatch pellet) in an intermediate layer and very specifically as above description by grinding in the layer that produces, this value be the 10%-50% contrast meter of the gross weight of this mixture (by weight with), or even 20%-40%, about 30% content provides good result usually.
In fact, the applicant blow molding gone out at internal layer and had between outer field these 2 layers of pure PE of 20% relative thickness accordingly based on pure HDPE (Lupolen with about 45% relative thickness (with respect to the gross thickness of wall)
