Abstract
A fuel vapor capturing canister includes a cylindrical casing having a communicating hole which is formed at one end so as to communicate with the atmosphere and another communicating hole which is formed at the other end so as to communicate with a fuel tank and an intake system of an engine. An adsorbent is accommodated in the casing so as to form at least one layer. A pair of partitioning plates partition the adsorbent layer longitudinally of the casing. A deflecting plate is disposed between the partitioning plates so as to protrude from an inner wall face of the casing inwardly of the same. The partitioning plates are open in the vicinity of sides of the deflecting plate respectively.
