Reservoir tank
The reservoir tank includes a reservoir body which reserves a fluid in an inner portion thereof formed to be in a hollow box shape. The reservoir body includes a port extending outward, a reservoir chamber which reserves the fluid and a port chamber which volume is smaller than that of the reservoir chamber and is in fluid communication with the port and a first communication passage positioned at a portion lower than a changeable liquid surface of the fluid reserved in the reservoir chamber in a vertical direction and provided at the first partition portion to allow the fluid communication between the reservoir chamber and the port chamber and wherein the port chamber and the port are kept being a state in which they are filled with the fluid supplied from the reservoir chamber via the first communication passage.
1. A reservoir tank comprising a reservoir body which reserves an operating liquid in an inner portion thereof formed to be in a hollow box shape, the reservoir tank being connected to a vehicle mounted apparatus for a fluid communication of the operating liquid with the vehicle mounted apparatus, wherein
the reservoir body includes:
a tubular projecting portion extending outward from an outer wall portion;
a first partition portion which divides the inner portion of the reservoir body into a first chamber which reserves the operating liquid therein and a second chamber which volume is smaller than the volume of the first chamber and being in communication with the tubular projecting portion; and
a first communication passage positioned at a portion lower than a vertically changeable liquid surface of the operating liquid reserved in the first chamber in a vertical direction and provided at the first partition portion to allow a communication between the first chamber and the second chamber,
and wherein,
the second chamber and the tubular projecting portion are kept being a state in which the first chamber and the second chamber are filled with the operating liquid which is supplied thereto from the first chamber via the first communication passage, and
an opening area of the first communication passage at a first chamber side is set to be larger than an opening area of the first communication passage at a second chamber side.
2. The reservoir tank according to claim 1 , wherein
the tubular projecting portion is provided at an upper portion higher than a position of the first communication passage in the vertical direction.
3. The reservoir tank according to claim 2 , wherein
in the horizontal direction, the first chamber is adjacent to the second chamber, and
in the horizontal direction, the opening area of the first communication passage at the first chamber side is set to be larger than the opening area of the first communication passage at the second chamber side.
4. The reservoir tank according to claim 1 , wherein
the reservoir body is formed by a first main body portion which is located at an upper side in the vertical direction and a second main body portion which is located at a lower side in the vertical direction relative to the first main body portion and wherein
the tubular projecting portion is provided at a first main body side and the first communication passage is provided at a second main body side.
5. The reservoir tank according to claim 1 , wherein an opening area of the tubular projecting portion at a second chamber side is set to be larger than the opening area of the first communication passage at the second chamber side.
6. A reservoir tank comprising a reservoir body which reserves an operating liquid in an inner portion thereof formed to be in a hollow box shape, the reservoir tank being connected to a vehicle mounted apparatus for a fluid communication of the operating liquid with the vehicle mounted apparatus, wherein
the reservoir body includes:
a tubular projecting portion extending outward from an outer wall portion;
a first partition portion which divides the inner portion of the reservoir body into a first chamber which reserves the operating liquid therein and a second chamber which volume is smaller than the volume of the first chamber and being in communication with the tubular projecting portion;
a first communication passage positioned at a portion lower than a vertically changeable liquid surface of the operating liquid reserved in the first chamber in a vertical direction and provided at the first partition portion to allow a communication between the first chamber and the second chamber;
a second partition portion which defines a third chamber in an inner portion of the first chamber, the third chamber being extending from an inner surface of a bottom portion of the first chamber and being in communication with the first chamber;
a second communication passage positioned at a portion lower than the vertically changeable liquid surface of the operating liquid reserved in the first chamber in the vertical direction and provided at the second partition portion; and
a fluid passage which connects the first communication passage and the second communication passage, and wherein
the second chamber and the tubular projecting portion are kept being a state in which the first chamber and the second chamber are filled with the operating liquid which is supplied thereto from the first chamber via the first communication passage, and
the fluid passage is kept being a state filled with the operating liquid.
