VAPOR GAS DISCHARGING APPARATUS FOR HYBRID ELECTRIC VEHICLE
First Claim
1. A vapor gas discharging apparatus for a hybrid electric vehicle (HEV), which includes a vapor line disposed between a canister and a fuel tank having a vent valve connected to the vapor line, so as to transfer vapor gas therebetween, wherein a purge line is connected to the canister for transferring vapor gas from the canister to an engine, the vapor gas discharging apparatus comprising:
- a discharging nipple formed to the canister and employed to supply air to the canister;
an air supply line connected to the discharging nipple of the canister for supplying the air to the discharging nipple;
a two-way valve connected to an end of an exhaust pipe and an end of the air supply line, and controlled for selectively communicating air flow between the air supply line and the exhaust pipe or between the air supply line and the outside of the air supply line; and
