[0042] When the hydraulic control unit (HCU) receives the signal from the dual-fuel engine electronic control unit (ECU) that the methanol injection is switched to the second group of methanol injection holes 53, the methanol injection unit 1 stops working, the electromagnet of the two-position four-way solenoid reversing valve 441 is energized, the valve core moves from the left to the right position, and the oil inlet path of the pressure oil output by the hydraulic power source 446 is as follows: pressure oil output by the hydraulic power source 446 - the fourth port 4414 of the two-position four-way solenoid reversing valve 441 - the connecting pipe 447 - the first hydraulic oil channel 442 - the first through hole 46 on the upper cover of the switching unit - the first radial cavity 4321 of the switching unit turntable 43 - the arc-shaped oil channel 445 on the upper end surface of the cylinder - the third radial cavity 4323 of the switching unit turntable 43 - push the switching unit turntable 43 to rotate clockwise.

At this time, the second group of methanol delivery holes 422 rotate to the position of the previous first group of methanol delivery holes 421, respectively, completing the switching of the two groups of methanol delivery holes with different apertures, thereby realizing the adjustment of the methanol injection flow rate.

[0044] The working processes of the methanol delivery on-off mechanism 55 and the diesel injection on-off mechanism 56 are respectively as follows:

[0045] When the dual-fuel engine electronic control unit (ECU) commands to switch to the methanol injection mode, the diesel injection unit 2 stops working and the methanol injection unit 1 is ready to start working. The methanol delivery on-off mechanism 55 is started, and the electromagnetic force generated by the methanol electromagnetic coil 12 is energized to make the methanol needle valve armature 14 overcome the elastic force of the methanol needle valve return spring 13 to drive the methanol needle valve 15 to move up a distance A1, so that the several radial holes 551 at the lower end of the methanol delivery rod 412 are connected to the inverted L-shaped hole 552 and the six first group of methanol injection holes 52 or the six second group of methanol injection holes 53 on the injection hole cover 5 through the several C-shaped holes 251 in sequence, so that the injection of methanol can be realized.

[0046] When the dual-fuel engine electronic control unit (ECU) commands to switch to the diesel injection mode, the methanol injection unit 1 stops working and the diesel injection unit 2 is ready to start working. The electromagnetic force generated by the diesel electromagnetic coil 22 makes the diesel needle valve armature 24 overcome the elastic force of the diesel needle valve return spring 23 to drive the diesel needle valve 25 to move upward, and the bottom cone surface 252 of the diesel needle valve is separated from the cone hole 211 of the diesel needle valve body. The cone hole 211 of the diesel needle valve body is connected with the six diesel injection holes 54 on the injection hole cover 5 through the inverted L-shaped hole 1121 of the methanol needle valve, so that the injection of diesel can be realized.
