Abstract
A valve system includes a housing with a tank connection for connecting to a fuel tank, a filter connection for connecting to an activated carbon filter, and a filling tube connection for connecting to a filling tube of the fuel tank. Both the tank connection and the filter connection and/or the filling tube connection can be in form of a connecting piece, connected directly or indirectly to the fuel tank through a connecting line leading to the fuel tank, the activated carbon filter or the filling tube. The tank connection/filter connection or the tank connection/filling tube connection can be fluidically connected to one another through a main vent duct. The tank connection or a tank-side main vent duct, and the filter connection or a filter-side main vent duct, can be fluidically connected by means of a secondary vent duct.
