Abstract: A vacuum operated flow control valve (20) is disposed in the vapor vent line
from a fuel tank (12) to a vapor storage canister (28) connected also to the engine air inlet (40).
The valve (20) has a diaphragm operator (58) of low permeability which is biased normally
open to permit fuel vapor to flow from the tank (12) to the canister (28) during engine
shutdown. Upon engine startup a vacuum is drawn in the canister (28) and the flow
control valve (20) which closes preventing vacuum being drawn in the tank (12) thereby
preventing tank collapse. During engine shutdown, if an ambient temperature
drop creates a vacuum in the tank (12), the flow control valve (20) closes; however, an
emergency umbrella relief valve (80) opens permitting reverse flow of vapor from the
canister (28) to the tank (12) preventing excessive vacuum in the tank (12).

Abstract: A multilayer film having two kinds of films of
different refractive indexes alternately stacked on
each other on a substrate composed of an optical
element is formed in a plurality of parallel lines,
and the adjacent lines of the multilayer film are

multilayer film to reinforce them. This makes it
possible to provide a highly reliable optical
component which shows good polarization
characteristic even for a visible light of a
wavelength of 400 to 700 nm and in which even when
designed to have a high aspect ratio, the linear
multilayer film will not fall down. There is also
provided a manufacturing method that enables a fine
recess/protrusion shape to be surely formed using an

on the support (22) in position to engage the door latch (40)
to hold the door closed; a biasing element (32) urging the catch (10)
into position to hold the door closed; a pin (12) having a locking
position in which it prevents the catch (10) from moving out of the door
closed position; and a pressure responsive sensor (24) initiating
action to move the pin (12) into an unlocked position permitting the
catch (10) to move when a sudden change in air pressure on one side
of the door occurs, thus allowing the door to open; the mechanism
further comprising a roller (16) mounted of the catch (10) to engage
one side of the pin (12) when an opening force is applied to the door,
and a roller (14) rotatably mounted on the support (22) and engaging
an opposite side of the pin (12) to receive a load applied to the
catch (10), the roller (14,16) being mounted to be in rolling
engagement with the pin (12) to aid in movement of the pin when
it is being moved.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of sending and validating documents using
authentication codes and portable verifier elements which can process and store
information and which offer a high level of protection against unauthorised readers and
writers. The inventinve method is characterised in that the aforementioned
authentication code is generated specifically for a particular portable verifier and is
indicated directly or indirectly by the person requesting the document. In this way, no
data record of any type is required in the portable verifier element up to the point at
which the document is validated. It is essential, however, that the portable verifier be
actively involved in the validation, said portable verifier containing a stored list of
validated documents such that it is possible to determine, at least, whether or not is the
