CONTROL VALVE ASSEMBLY
First Claim
1. A control valve assembly disposed in an evaporative fuel passage through which evaporative fuel desorbed from a canister flows toward an engine, the control valve assembly comprising:
- a housing accommodating an electromagnetic coil unit which is disposed in an in-housing passage and drives a valve element to open and close the in-housing passage; and
an inflow-outflow member coupled to the housing, the inflow-outflow member including an inflow portion having an inflow passage through which the evaporative fuel flows toward the in-housing passage, and an outflow portion having an outflow passage through which the evaporative fuel from the in-housing passage flows, whereinthe outflow passage in the outflow portion and the inflow passage in the inflow portion communicate with each other through the in-housing passage.

Abstract
A control valve assembly includes a housing accommodating an electromagnetic coil unit which is disposed in an in-housing passage and drives a valve element to open and close the in-housing passage. An inflow-outflow member is coupled to the housing, and includes an inflow portion having an inflow passage through which evaporative fuel flows toward the in-housing passage, and an outflow portion having an outflow passage through which the evaporative fuel from the in-housing passage flows. The outflow passage in the outflow portion and the inflow passage in the inflow portion communicate with each other through the in-housing passage.

17. A control valve assembly comprising:
-
a housing defining an in-housing passage therein and accommodating an electromagnetic valve that opens or closes the in-housing passage, a first end of the in-housing passage and a second end of the in-housing passage being open on a same opening side of the housing; and an inflow-outflow member coupled to the opening side of the housing, the inflow-outflow member defining therein an inflow passage communicating with the first end of the in-housing passage, and an outflow passage communicating with the second end of the in-housing passage.
