An automotive fuel system which has a fuel tank, a fuel pump, a fuel metering device for metering fuel flow to an associated fuel-consuming engine, and a fuel reservoir (such as, for example, a carburetor fuel bowl), has a valving assembly interposed generally between the outlet of the fuel pump and the fuel reservoir with such valving assembly being responsive to, for example, the associated vehicle experiencing a crash impact or a roll-over condition whereupon such valving assembly becomes effective to prevent the further flow of fuel from the fuel pump into the fuel reservoir.

In a vehicle having a fuel consuming engine, the combination comprising fuel tank means, fuel metering means for metering the rate of flow of said fuel to said engine, means effective for supplying a flow of said fuel from said fuel tank means to said fuel metering means, and safety valving means ef
In a vehicle having a fuel consuming engine, the combination comprising fuel tank means, fuel metering means for metering the rate of flow of said fuel to said engine, means effective for supplying a flow of said fuel from said fuel tank means to said fuel metering means, and safety valving means effective for at times preventing flow of said fuel from said fuel tank means to said engine, said safety valving means being thusly effective upon said vehicle experiencing a certain impact and/or abnormal attitude condition, said safety valving means comprising reset means effective for again establishing said flow of said fuel from said fuel tank means to said engine after said safety valving means has prevented said flow of said fuel from said fuel tank means to said engine, said safety valving means comprising housing means, fuel inlet means formed in said housing means, fuel outlet means formed in said housing means, fuel passage means interconnecting said fuel inlet and outlet means, movable valve member means adapted to at times close communication as between said inlet and outlet means to thereby terminate flow of said fuel from said fuel inlet means to said fuel outlet means, gravity responsive means normally effective for maintaining said valve member means in an open position as to thereby maintain said communication as between said inlet means and said outlet means, said gravity responsive means being effective upon said vehicle experiencing said crash condition to permit said valve member means to close said communication, said reset means being operatively connected to said valve member means and effective to again open said communication after said communication has been closed by said valve member means, said gravity responsive means comprising a relatively heavy ball-like member, said housing means comprising chamber means, said chamber means comprising a lower disposed wall of generally depressed contour, said said ball-like member being contained within said chamber means and in normally a first position generally seated on said lower disposed wall, said ball-like member being effective when in said first position to operatively engage said valve member means to thereby maintain said valve member means in said open position, said ball-like member also being effective to be moved to a second position generally eccentrically disposed to said first position upon said vehicle experiencing said crash condition, said ball-like member when moved to said second position being ineffective to maintain said valve member means in said open position.
