DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0046] Combine the following Figure 1-Figure 17 The invention describes a capless refueling auxiliary gate unit and a capless refueling device. The capless refueling device comprises a capless refueling auxiliary gate unit and a main cap unit.
[0047] Reference Figures 2 to 10As shown, according to the present invention, a capless refueling auxiliary gate unit is provided, comprising: an auxiliary gate housing 100, the auxiliary gate housing 100 is provided with an auxiliary gate chamber 110, the opposite ends of the auxiliary gate chamber 110 are respectively a first inlet and a first outlet, and the auxiliary gate chamber 110 is used for inserting a refueling gun; a gate structure 200, used to open or close the first inlet, the gate structure 200 is fixedly arranged inside the auxiliary gate chamber 110, and a part of the gate structure 200 is fixedly matched with the auxiliary gate housing 100; a refueling gun guide rail 300, used to guide the refueling gun to move, the refueling gun guide rail 300 is fixedly arranged inside the auxiliary gate chamber 110, and the refueling gun guide rail 300 is used to guide the refueling gun to move. The rail 300 is located on one side of the gate structure 200, and part of the structure of the fueling gun guide rail 300 is fixedly matched with the auxiliary gate housing 100; in a first direction, one end of the gate structure 200 abuts against an inner wall of one end of the auxiliary gate chamber 110, and the other end of the gate structure 200 abuts against one end of the fueling gun guide rail 300; wherein, when the gate structure 200 is subjected to the pushing force of the fueling gun, the first inlet is opened, and the opening direction of the gate structure 200 is toward the location of the first outlet; after the gate structure 200 is out of contact with the fueling gun, the first inlet is closed, and the closing direction of the gate structure 200 is toward the location of the first inlet.
[0048] The capless refueling auxiliary gate unit provided by the present invention does not need to unscrew the auxiliary gate unit when refueling. The refueling gun can be directly inserted and the gate structure 200 can be pushed by the refueling gun to open the first inlet, so that the refueling gun can be inserted into the auxiliary gate chamber 110, the gate structure 200 and the refueling gun guide rail 300 to realize the refueling operation. Through the above structure, the operation of opening and closing the fuel filler cap is omitted when refueling, and the first inlet can only be opened when the gate structure 200 is subjected to the push force of the fuel gun, and the door opening direction is toward the position of the first outlet; the first inlet can only be closed after the gate structure 200 is out of contact with the fuel gun, and the door closing direction is toward the position of the first inlet. The above gate structure 200 is a single-door structure to prevent water and dust from entering, and can ensure that the door is tightly closed in the non-refueling state, thereby achieving waterproof and dustproof, saving time and effort, and avoiding the situation of leaking; at the same time, when the fuel gun is inserted, the auxiliary gate chamber 110, the gate structure 200 and the fuel gun guide rail 300 are sequentially abutted and matched, thereby improving the stability of the gate structure 200, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the entire auxiliary gate unit.
[0049] It is understandable that, referring to Figures 4 to 6In the embodiment of the present invention, the gate structure 200 includes: a gate bracket 210, which is fixedly connected to the auxiliary gate housing 100; a gate member 220, which is movably connected to the gate bracket 210, and the gate member 220 can open or close the first entrance when it moves relative to the gate bracket 210; a gate spring 230, a part of the gate spring 230 is installed on the gate member 220, and another part of the gate spring 230 is installed on the gate bracket 210; wherein the cross-sectional area of the first entrance is smaller than the cross-sectional area of the gate member 220, when the gate spring 230 drives the gate member 220 to move to abut against and fit with the end wall of the auxiliary gate chamber 110 close to the first entrance, the first entrance is closed.
[0050] With the above structure, the gate member 220 opens or closes the first inlet when needed, and is automatically closed by the force of the gate spring 230. When the gate member 220 is pushed toward the end wall of the auxiliary gate chamber 110, since the cross-sectional area of the first inlet is smaller than that of the gate member 220, the gate member 220 will be pressed, thereby effectively closing the first inlet. This design ensures that the first inlet can be automatically opened or closed when the fuel gun is inserted or removed, thereby achieving convenient operation while effectively preventing the intrusion of water and dust.
[0051] Specifically, refer to Figures 4 to 6 In the embodiment of the present invention, the gate bracket 210, the gate member 220 and the gate spring 230 are configured to be detachably matched with each other, and the projection length of the partial structure of the gate spring 230 that matches with the gate member 220 on the gate member 220 is greater than the distance from the outer wall of the gate member 220 to the center line of the gate member 220. With the above structure, the configuration allows the gate bracket 210, the gate member 220 and the gate spring 230 to be easily disassembled in pairs, thereby improving the maintainability and replaceability of the gate components; moreover, the projection length of the partial structure of the gate spring 230 that matches with the gate member 220 on the gate member 220 is greater than the distance from the outer wall of the gate member 220 to the center line of the gate member 220, which can increase the stability and reliability of the closing force, and ensure that the gate assembly can always maintain good sealing performance and operating efficiency during operation.
[0052] Specifically, refer to Figures 4 to 6In the embodiment of the present invention, the gate bracket 210 is detachably connected to the gate member 220, and the gate member 220 is rotatable relative to the gate bracket 210. Through the above arrangement, it is easier to maintain and replace the gate member 220. The gate member 220 is rotatable relative to the gate bracket 210, which means that the position or angle of the gate member 220 can be adjusted to adapt to different working requirements or environmental conditions. It can be understood that when the gate member 220 rotates into the gate bracket 210 to open the first inlet, the gate member 220 leans against the inner wall of the gate bracket 210 to avoid the insertion of the refueling gun. The structure is reasonable and compact, and the space utilization rate is improved.
[0053] Specifically, refer to Figures 4 to 6 In the embodiment of the present invention, a first connecting arm 221 is provided on the gate member 220; a first mounting groove 211 is provided at the end of the gate bracket 210, the first mounting groove 211 is provided with a first end surface opening and a first side surface opening, a first protrusion 212 is provided on the side wall of the first mounting groove 211, the first protrusion 212 is located at the first end surface opening, and the first protrusion 212 has an avoidance state and a limiting state; wherein, when the first protrusion 212 is in the avoidance state, the first connecting arm 221 is rotatably inserted into the first mounting groove 211 along the first end surface opening and the first side surface opening; when the first protrusion 212 is in the limiting state, the projections of the first protrusion 212 and the first connecting arm 221 on the bottom of the first mounting groove 211 overlap, so as to limit the first connecting arm 221 from being separated from the first mounting groove 211.
[0054] Through the above arrangement, the first connecting arm 221 can be rotatably inserted into the first mounting groove 211 along the first end face opening and the first side face opening, so that the gate member 220 can be more convenient to install and disassemble, while ensuring the stability of the connection; in the avoidance state, the first connecting arm 221 is allowed to be inserted into the mounting groove, and in the limiting state, the first protrusion 212 and the first connecting arm 221 are projected on the bottom of the mounting groove and overlap, thereby limiting the first connecting arm 221 from being separated from the mounting groove. The above design can ensure that the gate member 220 will not accidentally fall off or move after installation, thereby enhancing the stability and safety of the cooperation between the gate member 220 and the gate bracket 210.
[0055] Specifically, refer to Figures 4 to 6In the embodiment of the present invention, the gate spring 230 includes two spiral rod segments 231 and a driving rod segment 232, and the two opposite sides of the driving rod segment 232 are respectively connected to the two spiral rod segments 231; wherein, the gate bracket 210 is provided with two first positioning channels 213 along the first direction, and the two spiral rod segments 231 correspond to the two first positioning channels 213 one by one and are plug-fitted to limit the gate spring 230 from rotating relative to the gate bracket 210, and the driving rod segment 232 abuts against the inner surface of the gate member 220. Through the above structure, the rotation of the gate spring 230 relative to the gate bracket 210 is limited, and the stability and controllability of the gate spring 230 in the process of driving the gate member 220 are ensured; the driving rod segment 232 provides a supporting force to support the movement of the gate member 220, and the above connection method ensures that the action of the gate spring 230 can accurately drive the gate member 220 to achieve the opening and closing function.
[0056] Specifically, refer to Figures 4 to 6 In the embodiment of the present invention, the gate bracket 210 is provided with two first positioning grooves 214, and the bottom of each first positioning groove 214 is provided with a first positioning channel 213, the spiral region of the spiral rod segment 231 is located in the first positioning groove 214, and one end of the spiral rod segment 231 is inserted into the first positioning channel 213; wherein, the bottom of the first positioning groove 214 is used to support the spiral rod segment 231 to limit the movement of the spiral rod segment 231 along the first direction; the opposite side walls of the first positioning groove 214 abut against the opposite sides of the spiral rod segment 231 to limit the movement of the spiral rod segment 231 relative to the gate bracket 210 along the second direction; the first positioning channel 213 is used to limit the spiral rod segment 231 from detaching from the gate bracket 210 along the second direction. With the above structure, the movement of the spiral rod segment 231 in two directions can be limited, ensuring that it is firmly fixed on the gate bracket 210 at the specified position, and the connection is more firm and reliable, thereby enhancing the stability and reliability of the entire mechanism.
[0057] Specifically, refer to Figures 4 to 6 In the embodiment of the present invention, one end of the spiral rod segment 231 is inclined with respect to the spiral region of the spiral rod segment 231, which can further correctly position and firmly fix the gate bracket 210, thereby improving the assembly accuracy and stability.
[0058] It is also understandable that, with reference to Figure 5In the embodiment of the present invention, a second positioning groove 222 is provided on the inner surface of the gate member 220, and the second positioning groove 222 is inserted into and matched with the driving rod segment 232, and the opposite sides of the second positioning groove 222 are matched one by one with the opposite sides of the driving rod segment 232 to limit the movement of the driving rod segment 232 in the second direction relative to the gate member 220, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of its position, enhancing the stability of the connection between them, avoiding loosening or falling off during use, and improving the operating accuracy of the gate member 220, ensuring that it can accurately perform the opening or closing action when needed.
[0059] It is also understandable that, with reference to Figures 4 to 6 In the embodiment of the present invention, the gate bracket 210 is provided with a gate channel 215 for the refueling gun to pass through, and the side wall of the gate channel 215 is provided with an avoidance slope 216, which is arranged in contact with the end face of the gate bracket 210, and the connection between the gate spring 230 and the gate bracket 210 and the avoidance slope 216 are arranged facing each other, which can effectively guide the refueling gun to pass through the gate channel 215, so that it can smoothly enter or exit the channel, reduce the resistance and friction during the refueling process, improve the convenience of operation, reduce the direct contact between the refueling gun and the gate bracket 210, reduce friction, and extend the service life of the gate bracket 210; during the insertion of the refueling gun, it provides support and stability for the collision at the connection between the gate spring 230 and the gate bracket 210.
[0060] It is also understandable that, with reference to Figure 4 In the embodiment of the present invention, a push boss 223 is provided on the outer surface of the gate member 220, and there is a distance between the outer wall of the push boss 223 and the outer wall of the gate member 220, and a push recess 2231 is provided on the push boss 223, and the push recess 2231 includes a first concave arc surface and a first concave curved surface connected to the first arc surface, and the first concave arc surface and the first concave curved surface are respectively away from the connection between the gate spring 230 and the gate bracket 210; wherein, the first concave arc surface part structure is located in the middle area of the gate member 220, and the first concave curved surface is arranged away from the middle area of the gate member 220; the thickness of the push boss 223 corresponding to the first concave curved surface is greater than the thickness of the push boss 223 corresponding to the first concave arc surface.
[0061] Through the above configuration, by providing the push boss 223 and the push recess 2231, the refueling gun can be inserted or pushed more easily. For example, when inserting and pushing, the concave surface provides additional space, so that the insertion and pushing are smoother; by increasing the thickness at the first concave surface on the push boss 223, the durability of the area is enhanced, thereby extending the service life of the gate member 220. It should be noted that in the embodiment of the present invention, the gate spring 230 is a torsion spring.
[0062] It is understandable that, referring to Figures 1 to 3 and 8 and Fig. 9 In the embodiment of the present invention, the auxiliary gate housing 100 is provided with a drain port 120, and the fuel gun guide rail 300 is provided with a drain channel 310 connected to the drain port 120; the auxiliary gate unit also includes a blocking mechanism 400, which is provided on the fuel gun guide rail 300, and the blocking mechanism 400 has a blocking state and an open state; wherein the blocking mechanism 400 in the open state can open the drain channel 310; the blocking mechanism 400 can switch from the open state to the blocking state under the action of external force to block the drain channel 310. Through the specially designed drain port 120 and drain channel 310, a small amount of water flowing in from the gap between the auxiliary gate housing 100 and the gate structure 200 can be discharged from the drain port 120, avoiding the decrease in the sealing performance of the auxiliary gate unit and the partial damage of the main cover unit caused by the insertion of the refueling gun after freezing; and because there are certain sealing requirements for the auxiliary gate unit and the entire capless refueling device during refueling, a sealing mechanism 400 is provided to seal the drain channel 310 and the drain port 120, so as to achieve sealed refueling while also being able to cope with steam reflux type refueling guns.
[0063] Specifically, in an embodiment of the present invention, the sealing mechanism 400 has an elastic sealing area 411, which is used to seal the drainage channel 310, and the elastic sealing area 411 has a first angle and a second angle; when the elastic sealing area 411 is at the first angle, the elastic sealing area 411 is spaced apart from the drainage channel 310, and part of the structure of the elastic sealing area 411 is located on the path where the refueling gun is inserted; when the elastic sealing area 411 is subjected to the pressing force applied by an external refueling gun, the elastic sealing area 411 is elastically deformed, and the elastic sealing area 411 is rotated to the second angle, and the elastic sealing area 411 contacts the drainage channel 310 to close the drainage channel 310; when the pressing force applied by the external refueling gun to the elastic sealing area 411 is cancelled, the elastic member returns to the first angle, and the elastic sealing area 411 is separated from the drainage channel 310.
[0064] With the above structure, the elastic blocking area 411 is at a first angle, the drain port 120 and the drain channel 310 are not blocked and are open, and the elastic blocking area 411 is rotated to a second angle, the drain port 120 and the drain channel 310 are blocked and closed. The design of the elastic blocking area 411 can effectively block the drain channel 310, and is in full contact with the drain channel 310 at the second angle, ensuring the sealing and preventing oil leakage or other liquid leakage; when pressure is applied by an external refueling gun, the elastic blocking area 411 will automatically elastically deform and rotate to the second angle to close the drain channel 310. The elastic blocking area 411 automatically blocks or unseals according to the pressure applied by the external refueling gun. The flexible response and automated operation simplify the refueling process, ensure the safety of operation, improve efficiency, and reduce the workload of operators.

The design that the cross-sectional area of the abutting protrusion 421 is smaller than the folding plate portion 412 can ensure that the abutting force is concentrated in a smaller area, which helps to improve the accuracy and efficiency of the abutment, and also reduces the wear caused by friction.

[0126] With the above structure, since the gas circulation structure passes through the inside and outside of the main cover shell 600, the above design can ensure that the gas flows smoothly between the main cover chamber and the gas circulation structure, forming a stable gas circulation. When the gas can circulate freely between the main cover chamber and the outside, it helps to maintain the pressure balance between the inside and outside of the chamber and avoid structural damage caused by pressure differences.
[0127] Specifically, refer to Fig.11 and Fig.12 In the embodiment of the present invention, the gas circulation structure includes a first gas circulation port 910, which is disposed between the side wall of the main cover housing 600 and the side wall of the deflector 700, and the first gas circulation port 910 corresponds to the main cover chamber.

[0129] It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, the first gas circulation port 910 and the second gas circulation port 920 are respectively located on the opposite side walls of the main cover chamber, which can better balance the flow of gas in the main cover chamber, help reduce the local pressure or temperature difference of the gas, and thus improve stability and performance; it can avoid the space limitations that may be caused by the concentrated installation of multiple gas circulation ports on the same side wall of the main cover shell 600, thereby more flexibly designing and laying out other components of the system.
[0130] It should also be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, the position of the valve structure 800 that closes the main cover chamber is higher than the position of the gas circulation structure on the main cover shell 600, which can reduce the interference of the valve structure 800 on the gas circulation structure. When the valve structure 800 needs to be operated or maintained, it will not affect the gas circulation structure, thereby ensuring normal operation.
[0131] Specifically, refer to Figure 2 , Fig.11 and Fig.12 In the embodiment of the present invention, the outer wall of the main cover housing 600 is sleeved with a main cover sealing ring 560. In the first direction, the main cover sealing ring 560 is located on the main cover housing 600 at a position higher than the position where the valve structure 800 closes the main cover chamber. With the above arrangement, when the main cover channel 610, i.e., the main cover chamber is closed, the main cover sealing ring 560 is at a higher position, which helps to improve the sealing performance between the refueling pipe and the main cover housing 600, can effectively prevent gas or liquid from leaking from the main cover chamber to the external environment, maintain airtightness, and reduce the risk of damage or accidental destruction of the main cover sealing ring 560.

[0134] It is understandable that, referring to Fig.16 and Fig.17 In the embodiment of the present invention, the guide structure 720 is a guide boss, and a guide arc surface 721 is provided on a side wall of the guide boss facing the center of the guide channel 710, and the distance between the guide arc surface 721 and the inner side wall of the guide 700 gradually increases from the insertion end of the guide channel 710 to the outlet end of the guide channel 710. Through the above arrangement, the role of the guide arc surface 721 is to provide a guiding surface when the fuel gun is inserted, ensuring that the fuel gun can be accurately inserted into the guide channel 710; and the distance between the guide arc surface 721 on the guide boss and the inner side wall of the guide 700 is gradually increased from the insertion end to the outlet end of the guide channel 710, in order to gradually relax the restrictions on the insertion angle and position of the fuel gun during the insertion of the fuel gun, ensuring that the fuel gun can be smoothly inserted into the guide channel 710.
[0135] It is understandable that, referring to Fig.16 and Fig.17 In the embodiment of the present invention, a side wall of the limiting structure 730 facing the center of the flow guiding channel 710 is provided with a limiting step 731, and the limiting step 731 is concave. When the fueling gun is inserted, it abuts against the limiting step 731, which serves to provide a reference point or structure for limiting the insertion depth, ensuring that the fueling gun is inserted into the correct position of the flow guiding channel 710, with a simple structure, stability and reliability.
[0136] Specifically, refer to Fig.16 and Fig.17 In the embodiment of the present invention, the lowest position of the guiding arc surface 721 is aligned with the lowest position of the limiting step 731, which ensures the maximum insertion depth of the refueling gun during insertion, simplifies the operation process, and makes it easier for refueling personnel to understand and master the correct insertion depth during use, reduces the possibility of operational errors, and helps to ensure a good connection between the refueling gun and the guide channel 710 to avoid leakage or other safety hazards.
[0137] Specifically, refer to Fig.16 and Fig.17 In the embodiment of the present invention, the limiting structure 730 is a limiting boss 620, which is arranged along the length direction of the deflector 700, wherein the upper end surface of the limiting boss 620 and the upper end surface of the insertion end of the corresponding flow guide channel 710 on the deflector 700 have an avoidance spacing, and the lower end surface of the limiting boss 620 extends to the lower end surface of the outlet end of the corresponding flow guide channel 710 on the deflector 700. The setting of the avoidance spacing can provide enough space for the refueling gun, so that it can be smoothly inserted into the flow guide channel 710 without hindrance, ensuring the smooth progress of the refueling operation.
[0138] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present invention, there are multiple limiting structures 730, and the multiple limiting structures 730 are spaced and arranged relatively to improve the stability of the limiting. Specifically, in the embodiment of the present invention, the guide structure 720 is located between two adjacent limiting structures 730, which further improves the stability of the limiting, can effectively optimize the refueling operation process, and improve the safety and efficiency of the operation.
[0139] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present invention, the inner diameter of the flow guide 700 gradually decreases along the first direction from the insertion end to the outlet end. With the above structure, since the inner diameter of the flow guide 700 gradually decreases, the flow of oil inside the flow guide 700 will be restricted and guided, thereby improving the flow efficiency of the fluid.
[0140] It is also understandable that, with reference to Fig.16 and Fig.17 In the embodiment of the present invention, the flow guide 700 is further provided with a spoiler structure 740, which is located in the flow guide channel 710 and is used to slow down the outflow speed of the oil at the outlet end of the flow guide channel 710; wherein, the spoiler structure 740 is arranged on the inner wall of the flow guide channel 710 along the length direction of the flow guide 700. With the above structure, the spoiler structure 740 blocks the oil when it just comes out, thereby slowing down the speed of the fluid passing through the outlet end of the flow guide channel 710, ensuring that the flow of the fluid near the outlet is more stable and controllable, and can effectively reduce the splashing and splashing phenomenon when the fluid flows out, which helps to reduce energy consumption and reduce the waste of fluid, and conforms to the concept of energy saving and environmental protection.
[0141] Specifically, refer to Fig.16 and Fig.17 In the embodiment of the present invention, the spoiler structure 740 is a spoiler rib connected to the deflector 700, and the spoiler rib is convexly arranged toward the center line of the deflector channel 710. Through the above arrangement, the spoiler rib is directly connected to the deflector 700 and convexly arranged toward the center line, which enhances the stability and rigidity of the deflector 700, reduces the possibility of vibration and deformation, makes maintenance and cleaning more convenient, reduces the workload and time cost of maintenance personnel, and improves the overall economy and sustainability.
[0142] Specifically, in an embodiment of the present invention, there is a spacing between the lower end surface of the spoiler rib and the lower end surface of the outlet end of the corresponding guide channel 710 on the deflector 700, so that the oil can be gathered in the spacing area and flow stably into the fuel tank before entering the fuel tank after being acted upon by the spoiler rib.
[0143] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present invention, a side wall of the spoiler rib facing the center line of the guide channel 710 is parallel to the center line of the guide channel 710 , which has a simple structure and is easy to manufacture.
[0144] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present invention, the spoiler rib and the deflector 700 are an integrated structure, and the spoiler rib can be directly manufactured as a part of the deflector 700, which simplifies the manufacturing and installation process, reduces the number of parts and assembly steps, and saves additional materials and manufacturing costs.
[0145] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present invention, there are multiple groups of spoiler structures 740, which are spaced apart on the inner wall of the guide channel 710, which helps to disperse the pressure of the oil fluid, improve energy efficiency, and improve flow stability and controllability.
[0146] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present invention, the inner wall of the flow guide channel 710 includes a first straight section 711, an inclined guide section 712, and a second straight section 713, which are sequentially arranged along the length direction of the flow guide 700. Through the above structure, the first straight section 711 can guide the fluid into the flow guide channel 710, the inclined guide section 712 can guide the fluid to the downstream direction and accelerate the flow speed of the fluid, and the second straight section 713 is used to stabilize the flow of the fluid, so that it forms a stable flow state inside the flow guide 700.
[0147] It is also understandable that, with reference to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Fig.11 , Fig.12 , Fig.16 and Fig.17 In the embodiment of the present invention, the outer wall of the deflector 700 is provided with an elastic positioning structure 750, which is used to abut against the fuel pipe to limit the relative installation position of the deflector 700 and the fuel pipe; wherein the elastic positioning structure 750 can follow the movement of the deflector 700 and can adaptively adjust its relative angle with the outer wall of the deflector 700. During installation, the deflector 700 is installed on the fuel pipe, and the elastic positioning structure 750 is elastically deformed and reset to limit the final installation position of the deflector 700, which can reduce the difficulty and complexity of the installation process of the deflector 700 and the fuel pipe, making the installation more simple and efficient. In some cases, for example, since the elastic positioning structure 750 is elastic, a small-diameter fuel pipe can also achieve an expanded diameter shape to adapt to various sizes of fuel pipes.
[0148] It should be noted that the above-mentioned small-diameter fueling pipe can also realize an expanded diameter shape. It can be understood that the relevant fueling pipe is composed of two parts, a large diameter and a small diameter. The large diameter part and the small diameter part need to be welded and fixed, and the elastic positioning structure 750 is used for setting. Therefore, the small diameter part of the fueling pipe can be expanded to a size with a slope close to that of the large diameter part. Therefore, the large diameter part and the small diameter part after the expansion of the fueling pipe do not need to be welded, and can be processed and manufactured using a bobbin, thereby reducing the overall cost.
[0149] Specifically, refer to Fig.16 and Fig.17 In an embodiment of the present invention, the elastic positioning structure 750 includes an elastic positioning member, which is arranged on the outer wall of the deflector 700 along a first direction, and there is a deformation distance between the elastic positioning member and the outer wall of the deflector 700. When the elastic positioning member is subjected to an external force, the elastic positioning member tends to fit into the outer wall of the deflector 700, which can ensure that the refueling pipe and the deflector 700 maintain a fixed position during installation, prevent accidental movement, and improve safety.
[0150] Specifically, refer to Fig.16 and Fig.17 In the embodiment of the present invention, the elastic positioning member includes a connecting section 751 and a positioning section 752. One end of the connecting section 751 is connected to the outer wall of the deflector 700, and the other end of the connecting section 751 is connected to the positioning section 752. The connecting section 751 is inclined relative to the center line of the guide channel 710, and the positioning section 752 is abutted against the inner wall of the fuel pipe to limit the relative installation position of the deflector 700 and the fuel pipe. Through the above arrangement, the combination of the connecting section 751 and the positioning section 752 reduces the complexity of the elastic positioning member and facilitates manufacturing.
[0151] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present invention, the elastic positioning member is an elastic plate body integrally formed with the deflector 700, which simplifies the manufacturing and installation process, reduces the number of parts and assembly steps, and saves additional materials and manufacturing costs.
[0152] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present invention, there are two elastic positioning structures 750, which are spaced apart on the outer wall of the deflector 700, which helps to improve the installation stability of the refueling pipe and the deflector 700. Of course, the number of the elastic positioning structures 750 is not limited here, and can also be one, three, etc.
[0153] Specifically, refer to Fig.16 and Fig.17 In an embodiment of the present invention, the guide 700 is provided with a notch 760, and the notch 760 is arranged on the side wall of the guide 700 along the first direction, and the notch 760 extends to the end face of the guide channel 710 on the guide 700 corresponding to the outlet end and is connected; when the side wall of the guide channel 710 on the guide 700 corresponding to the outlet end is subjected to external force, the side walls of the guide 700 corresponding to the two sides of the notch 760 are close to each other, so as to reduce the outer diameter of the side wall of the guide channel 710 on the guide 700 corresponding to the outlet end.
[0154] By adopting the above structure, the outer diameter of the side wall of the deflector 700 corresponding to the outlet end of the guide channel 710 can be elastically reduced, so that the deflector 700 is adapted to some smaller diameter refueling pipes; at the same time, the role of the notch 760 is not only to shrink the mouth, but also to cooperate with the gas circulation structure to assist gas circulation. It can be understood that the gas can not only flow through the outlet end of the guide channel 710, but also flow through the notch 760.
[0155] Specifically, refer to Fig.16 In the embodiment of the present invention, the two side walls of the deflector 700 corresponding to the notch 760 have a first wall thickness 771, a second wall thickness 772 and a third wall thickness 773, the first wall thickness 771 is adjacent to the side of the notch 760, the second wall thickness 772 is located between the first wall thickness 771 and the third wall thickness 773, and the thicknesses of the first wall thickness 771 and the third wall thickness 773 are both smaller than the second wall thickness 772, the thickness of the first wall thickness 771 gradually increases toward the second wall thickness 772, and the thickness of the third wall thickness 773 gradually decreases away from the second wall thickness 772; wherein, when an external force acts on the side wall of the deflector 700 corresponding to the second wall thickness 772, the outer diameter of the side wall of the deflector 700 corresponding to the outlet end of the guide channel 710 is reduced. With the above structure, the gradient thickness design can provide appropriate elastic response under the action of external force, and the outer diameter of the side wall of the guide channel 710 corresponding to the outlet end of the guide channel 710 on the guide device 700 can achieve elastic deformation, which is convenient for reducing the caliber, saving time and effort, and can adapt to some smaller diameter refueling pipes.
[0156] Specifically, in an embodiment of the present invention, the deflector 700 is provided with a deflector gas concave edge, which passes through the inside and outside of the deflector channel 710 and is connected to the notch 760; the main cover shell 600 has a main cover gas concave edge, and the deflector gas concave edge and the deflector gas cooperate to form a first gas circulation port 910, so that the gas can circulate inside and outside the deflector 700 and the main cover shell 600, with a simple structure and easy manufacturing.
[0157] It is also understandable that, with reference to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Fig.11 , Fig.12 , Fig.16 and Fig.17In the embodiment of the present invention, the main cover shell 600 and the deflector 700 are split structures. When the force in the direction of separation of the main cover shell 600 and the deflector 700 is less than the preset force, the two remain in the docking state; and when the force in the direction of separation of the main cover shell 600 and the deflector 700 is greater than the preset force, the two are separated. With the above structure, the main cover shell 600 and the deflector 700 are set to be split. Therefore, when the fuel gun is inserted with the wrong force, the main cover shell 600 and the deflector 700 are separated. When the fuel gun is vibrated or subjected to external forces, it will stop discharging oil or stop refueling. Therefore, it can be understood that the separation of the main cover shell 600 and the deflector 700 can play a prompting role and improve safety performance. At the same time, the split structure also facilitates the replacement of the main cover shell 600 and the deflector 700 with corresponding sizes, thereby improving adaptability and flexibility.
[0158] Specifically, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Fig.11 and Fig.12 In the embodiment of the present invention, the main cover housing 600 and the deflector 700 are detachably connected together through a connection structure, so that the device can be assembled and disassembled as needed, thereby increasing flexibility and being easier to adapt to different working scenes or needs. Different types or sizes of deflectors 700 or main cover housings 600 can be replaced as needed.
[0159] Specifically, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Fig.11 , Fig.12 , Fig.16 and Fig.17 In the embodiment of the present invention, the connection structure includes a connection protrusion 670 and a connection groove 780, wherein the connection protrusion 670 is provided on the end of the main cover shell 600 opposite to the deflector 700, and the connection groove 780 is provided on the end of the deflector 700 opposite to the main cover shell 600; wherein the connection protrusion 670 and the connection groove 780 are snap-fitted, and the projections of the opposite ends of the main cover shell 600 and the deflector 700 overlap. Of course, in some embodiments, the above-mentioned connection protrusion 670 can also be provided on the deflector 700, and the connection groove 780 is provided on the main cover shell 600, which is not limited here.
[0160] Through the above arrangement, the connection protrusion 670 and the connection groove 780 are snap-fitted to ensure the stability and safety of the connection. This can prevent the main cover unit from loosening or falling off during operation, ensuring normal operation; the projections of the opposite ends of the main cover shell 600 and the deflector 700 overlap, which can increase the tightness and stability of the connection and further improve reliability.
[0161] Specifically, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Fig.11 , Fig.12 , Fig.16 and Fig.17 In the embodiment of the present invention, the connection protrusion 670 is configured to be able to swing elastically relative to the middle of the main cover chamber. With the above structure, since the connection protrusion 670 has the characteristics of elastic swinging, it can move relatively freely in the middle of the main cover shell 600. When disassembling, the connection protrusion 670 can be swung to a position convenient for disassembly by applying appropriate force, thereby simplifying the disassembly process, reducing the difficulty of disassembly, and reducing the waste of manpower and time; at the same time, the connection protrusion 670 can reduce the friction with the main cover shell 600 or other components when swinging, thereby protecting the integrity and durability of the connection structure.
[0162] Specifically, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Fig.11 , Fig.12 , Fig.16 and Fig.17 In the embodiment of the present invention, a first plug-in recess 681 and a first plug-in protrusion 682 are provided on the end of the main cover shell 600 opposite to the deflector 700.

[0163] Through the above structure, the contact area between the components can be increased by mutual insertion. After connection, of the two components of the main cover shell 600 and the deflector 700, a part of the structure of the main cover shell 600 is exposed on the outer wall of the deflector 700, while the other part is embedded in the inner wall of the deflector 700, which not only provides external protection and coverage, but also ensures a stable connection inside. It is very important to ensure the sealing and waterproofness between the components.
[0164] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present invention, a limiting boss 7911 is provided in the second plug-in recess 791, and the limiting boss 7911 is provided with a limiting slope, which is inclined to the bottom surface of the second plug-in recess 791, and the limiting slope is connected to a side surface of the second plug-in recess 791 and is vertically arranged to form a limiting groove, wherein the two adjacent side surfaces on the first plug-in protrusion 682 are vertically arranged and plug-in cooperate with the limiting groove, which helps to provide additional safety protection, avoid accidents or damages, and increase the stability and firmness of the connection.
[0165] Specifically, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Fig.11 , Fig.12 , Fig.16 and Fig.17 In the embodiment of the present invention, the main cover shell 600 is provided with an insertion port 691, which is arranged to extend along the first direction; the deflector 700 is provided with an insertion convex strip, and the boss is arranged to extend along the first direction, and multiple insertion bosses are plugged in and matched with multiple insertion ports one by one, thereby further limiting the relative rotation of the main cover shell 600 and the deflector 700, and improving the stability of the installation. It should be noted that the insertion convex strip is the upper part structure of the spoiler rib, and the main cover shell 600 is provided with an avoidance port 692 that is plugged in and matched with the guide boss, which also improves the stability of the installation.
[0166] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the above-mentioned guide structure 720 and the limit structure 730 both have a certain flow-disturbing effect.
