DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0060] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field based on the embodiments in the present application belong to the scope of protection of this application.

[0061] Embodiment 1:

[0062] This embodiment provides a motorcycle fuel tank pressure detection and control system, including:

[0063] A fuel tank 1, a top wall of which is provided with a mounting cavity, a fuel tank cap 2 is mounted in the mounting cavity, and a refueling port and a vent hole 3 are provided in the mounting cavity;

[0064] An electrical unit 4, mounted on the motorcycle and used for supplying power within the motorcycle;

[0065] A detection unit 5 is installed on the motorcycle and is used to monitor the pressure in the fuel tank 1;

[0066] The regulating unit 6 is installed in the fuel tank cover 2 and is used to change the opening and closing of the vent hole 3;

[0067] The driving unit 7 is installed on the motorcycle and is used to control the regulating unit 6 to open the vent 3 when the power is on, and to control the regulating unit 6 to close the vent 3 when the power is off;

[0068] Wherein, the driving unit 7 and the detection unit 5 are both electrically connected to the electrical unit 4;

[0069] Meanwhile, the fuel tank cap 2 usually needs to be opened or removed when refueling the fuel tank 1 through the refueling port, so the electrical connection between the drive unit 7 and the electrical unit 4 can adopt a contact-type electrical connection, that is, electrical contacts (not marked in the specification) are arranged at corresponding locations on the surface of the fuel tank cap 2 and the inner wall of the installation cavity, which is a conventional electrical connection method and will not be described in detail here;

[0070] The detection unit 5 may adopt a conventional pressure sensor, whose specific structure and installation position (not indicated in the specification) are all prior art, so as to detect the pressure in the oil tank 1 and provide feedback to the electrical unit 4, which will not be described in detail here.

[0071] It can be seen from the present embodiment that the opening and closing of the vent hole 3 is regulated by setting the adjustment unit 6. When the pressure inside and outside the fuel tank 1 needs to be balanced, the vent hole 3 is opened, otherwise the vent hole 3 is closed, which effectively reduces the evaporation of the fuel in the fuel tank 1 and the pollution of the fuel, and reduces the evaporation of the fuel, which can improve the efficiency of the fuel and improve the performance of the motorcycle to a certain extent.

[0072] The driving unit 7 is electrically connected to the electrical unit 4 in the motorcycle, so that when the motorcycle is started and powered on, the vent 3 is opened, and vice versa, the vent 3 is closed, and the convenience is improved by automated control. The detection unit 5 is set to detect the pressure in the fuel tank 1 and is also connected to the electrical unit 4, so that the safety can be effectively guaranteed when the vent 3 is closed, and the vent 3 can be opened in time to reduce the pressure increase in the fuel tank 1.

[0073] Embodiment 2:

[0074] This embodiment provides a motorcycle fuel tank pressure detection and control system, which, in addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, also has the following technical features. The adjustment unit 6 includes:

[0075] A valve body 60 is formed in the fuel tank cap 2 and is arranged corresponding to the vent hole 3. A first channel 61 connecting the external environment and the vent hole 3 is opened in the valve body 60, and an annular boss 62 is formed on the inner wall of the first channel 61;

[0076] The valve core 63 is installed in the valve body 60 and can be sealed with the annular boss 62 and is used for opening and closing the first channel 61;

[0077] The vent plug 64 is coaxially disposed in the first channel 61 and has a second channel 65 formed therein;

[0078] The driving unit 7 is used to drive the ventilation plug 64 to pass through the annular boss 62 to push open the valve core 63 or pull back the valve core 63 to reset;

[0079] At the same time, in order to improve the installation accuracy of the fuel tank cap 2 and ensure the corresponding arrangement of the first channel 61, the vent hole 3 and the contact-type electrical connection, the fuel tank cap 2 may also be provided with a cylindrical protrusion at the vent hole 3 and inserted into the vent hole 3, so that the vent hole 3, the cylindrical protrusion and the inside of the first channel 61 are all connected, and the two contacts of the contact-type electrical connection are conducted;

[0080] Furthermore, in order to further improve safety and prevent the valve core 63 from falling into the oil tank 1, a plug with a through hole may be provided on the inner wall of the cylindrical protrusion.

[0081] It can be seen from this embodiment that by using the vent plug 64 to push open the valve core 63 or pull back the valve core 63 to reset it, the opening and closing of the vent hole 3 of the fuel tank 1 can be effectively controlled, so that when the motorcycle is not in use, that is, when the fuel tank 1 is not needed for fuel supply, the fuel tank 1 can be kept in a sealed state, reducing the evaporation and pollution of the fuel. The structure is simple, and the valve core 63 can be easily maintained or replaced, thereby improving convenience.

[0082] Specifically, the tank cap 2 can be removed and the valve core 63 can be disassembled, which is easy to operate. In order to facilitate the disassembly of the ventilation plug 64, the tank cap 2 can also be composed of two parts, which is convenient for the maintenance and repair of the adjustment unit 6.

[0083] Embodiment 3:

[0084] This embodiment provides a motorcycle fuel tank pressure detection and control system, which, in addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, also has the following technical features, and the adjustment unit 6 also includes:

[0085] The guide rod 66 is mounted on the side of the annular boss 62 away from the vent plug 64, and the valve core 63 is provided with a through hole 67 adapted to the guide rod 66;

[0086] The valve body 60 is provided with a mounting hole for inserting the guide rod 66 , and an interference fit can be adopted between the guide rod 66 and the mounting hole, while the valve core 63 is slidably connected to the guide rod 66 via the through hole 67 .

[0087] It can be seen from the present embodiment that the provision of the guide rod 66 can effectively improve the stability of the movement of the valve core 63, thereby ensuring the precise fit between the ventilation plug 64 and the valve core 63 and improving the accuracy.

[0088] Embodiment 4:

[0089] This embodiment provides a motorcycle fuel tank pressure detection and control system, which, in addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, also has the following technical features, and the adjustment unit 6 also includes:

[0090] The filter screen 68 is sleeved on the valve core 63, and one end of the filter screen is connected to the surface of the valve core 63, and the other end of the filter screen is connected to the annular boss 62;

[0091] The two ends of the filter screen 68 are respectively connected to the valve core 63 and the annular boss 62 by bonding.

[0092] It can be seen from the present embodiment that the setting of the filter 68 can reduce the entry of impurities when the vent hole 3 is opened, and can reduce the risk of fuel contamination when the vent hole 3 is opened. In addition, the two ends are respectively connected to the valve core 63 and the annular boss 62, and can serve as a length control element to limit the movement range of the valve core 63 and ensure the coordination between the vent plug 64 and the valve core 63.

[0093] Embodiment 5:

[0094] This embodiment provides a motorcycle fuel tank pressure detection and control system, which, in addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, also has the following technical features:

[0095] The filter screen 68 is conical or cylindrical, and when the valve core 63 is sealed with the annular boss 62, the conical or cylindrical wall of the filter screen 68 protrudes and bends radially away from the axis.

[0096] It can be seen from this embodiment that by adopting a conical or cylindrical filter screen 68 and three-dimensional filtering, the effective filtering area is greatly increased, the air flow efficiency is ensured, and the negative impact of the filter screen 68 on the air flow efficiency is reduced.

[0097] Embodiment 6:

[0098] This embodiment provides a motorcycle fuel tank pressure detection and control system, which, in addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, also has the following technical features:

[0099] The second passage 65 includes an air inlet section 650 axially opened in the ventilation plug 64 and an air outlet section radially opened in the ventilation plug 64;

[0100] The air outlet section forms an air port 651 on the surface of the vent plug 64, and the air port 651 can correspond to the filter screen 68;

[0101] At the same time, multiple air ports 651 can be used, that is, they are opened at equal intervals around the circumference to ensure the air flow efficiency.

[0102] It can be seen from this embodiment that by setting the second channel 65 as an axial air inlet section 650 and a radial air outlet end, the influence of the vent plug 64 and the valve core 63 on the air flow channel when they are pushed together can be avoided, thereby ensuring the connection between the inside and outside of the oil tank 1 after the valve core 63 is pushed open and ensuring pressure balance.

[0103] Embodiment 7:

[0104] This embodiment provides a motorcycle fuel tank pressure detection and control system, which, in addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, also has the following technical features. The ventilation plug 64 includes:

[0105] The power end 640 is provided with a plug hole 630 on the valve core 63 to form a static friction fit with the surface of the power end 640, and the power end 640 is used to carry the valve core 63 to move, and when the valve core 63 is pulled back to reset, it is separated from the valve core 63 under the obstruction of the annular boss 62;

[0106] The main body 641 is connected to a side of the power end 640 away from the valve core 63;

[0107] Among them, an integrated structure is adopted between the power end 640 and the main body 641, and the static friction between the valve core 63 and the power end 640 is greater than the static friction between the valve core 63 and the annular boss 62. At the same time, the material of the surface of the power end 640 can be selected to improve the static friction, and specifically, rubber materials can be used.

[0108] It can be seen from this embodiment that through the cooperation between the power end 640 and the socket 630, when the vent hole 3 is opened, the two cooperate and push the valve core 63 to move. When the vent hole 3 needs to be closed, the power end 640 will pull the valve core 63 to move and make it seal with the annular boss 62 to ensure that the valve core 63 is pulled back to its original position.

[0109] Embodiment 8:

[0110] This embodiment provides a motorcycle fuel tank pressure detection and control system, which, in addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, also has the following technical features. The drive unit 7 includes:

[0111] The electromagnet ring 70 is installed on the side of the annular boss 62 away from the valve core 63 and is electrically connected to the electrical unit 4;

[0112] The common magnet ring 71 is sleeved on the main body 641 and is coaxially arranged with the electromagnet ring 70 and can move toward the electromagnet ring 70 when the electromagnet ring 70 is energized;

[0113] The spring 72 is installed in the first channel 61, and the two ends are connected to the main body 641 and the valve body 60 respectively, and can pull the main body 641 and the common magnet ring 71 away from the electromagnet ring 70 when the electromagnet ring 70 is powered off;

[0114] Among them, the adsorption force between the electromagnet ring 70 and the ordinary magnet ring 71 is much greater than the elastic potential energy of the stretched spring 72. Specifically, the sum of the force of the pressure in the oil tank 1 on the valve core 63 corresponding to the monitoring alarm threshold of the pressure in the oil tank 1 by the detection unit 5, the elastic potential energy of the stretched spring 72, and the static friction between the valve core 63 and the annular boss 62 is smaller than the adsorption force between the electromagnet ring 70 and the ordinary magnet ring 71.

[0115] At the same time, the elastic potential energy of the stretched spring 72 is greater than the static friction force between the valve core 63 and the power end 640 .

[0116] It can be seen from the present embodiment that the electromagnet ring 70 is switched between adsorbing the common magnet ring 71 and stretching the spring 72 and not adsorbing the common magnet ring 71 and being pulled back by the restoring force of the spring 72 by turning the power on and off. The structure is simple, can be automatically controlled, is convenient, and ensures the control of the opening and closing of the vent hole 3.

[0117] Embodiment 9:

[0119] An ignition module 40 is installed in the motorcycle and is used for ignition of the motorcycle;

[0120] A control module 41 is installed in the motorcycle and is used to receive feedback from the detection unit 5 and the ignition module 40;

[0121] A battery module 42 is installed in the motorcycle and is used to provide electrical energy;

[0122] The control module 41 controls whether the battery module 42 supplies power to the drive unit 7 by receiving feedback from the detection unit 5 and the ignition module 40;

[0123] At the same time, the control module 41 controls the battery module 42 to supply power to the drive unit 7 under the condition that the control module 41 receives at least one signal (ignition signal, pressure abnormality information);

[0124] Furthermore, the specific structures of the ignition module 40, the control module 41 and the battery module 42 are all prior art, and are all component modules of the conventional motorcycle electrical unit 4, and will not be described in detail here.

[0125] It can be seen from the present embodiment that power is supplied by the battery module 42 to ensure the power supply to the drive unit 7, and an ignition signal or a pressure abnormality signal or both signals are received by the control module 41 to control the battery module 42 to supply power to the drive unit 7, thereby effectively ensuring the opening of the vent hole 3, and ensuring the fuel supply and the stability of the pressure in the fuel tank 1.

[0126] Embodiment 10:

[0127] This embodiment provides a detection and control method for a motorcycle fuel tank pressure detection and control system, comprising the following steps:

[0128] S1: The motorcycle starts, the ignition module 40 starts and feeds back an ignition signal to the control module 41, and the control module 41 controls the battery module 42 to supply power to the drive unit 7;

[0129] S2: The electromagnet ring 70 generates magnetism due to power-on, and then attracts the common magnet ring 71, so that the common magnet ring 71 drives the ventilation plug 64 to move;

[0130] S3: The power end 640 of the ventilation plug 64 is inserted into the insertion hole 630 for static friction fit, and the valve core 63 is pushed open. At this time, the spring 72 is stretched and the filter screen 68 is stretched;

[0131] S4: At this time, the vent hole 3 is opened to ensure the pressure balance inside and outside the oil tank 1;

[0132] S5: When the motorcycle is turned off, the control module 41 controls the battery module 42 to stop supplying power to the drive unit 7;

[0133] S6: The battery iron ring loses its magnetism due to power failure, and the vent plug 64 pulls the valve core 63 to move toward the annular boss 62 under the action of the restoring force of the spring 72;

[0134] S7: blocked by the annular boss 62, the power end 640 is separated from the plug hole 630, and the valve core 63 is sealed with the annular boss 62, where the vent hole 3 is closed, a sealed ring is formed in the oil tank 1, and the detection unit 5 monitors the pressure in the oil tank 1;

[0135] S8: When the pressure in the oil tank 1 is abnormal, the detection unit 5 tank control module 41 feeds back a pressure abnormality signal, and the control module 41 controls the battery to supply power to the drive unit 7;

[0136] S9: Repeat S2-S4 until the control module 41 receives a signal from the detection unit 5 indicating that the pressure has returned to normal;

[0137] When the motorcycle is not started and the vent hole 3 is closed, the detection unit 5 detects abnormal pressure and opens the vent hole 3, and can also be electrically connected to an alarm device for warning.

[0138] It can be seen from this embodiment that the battery module 42 can adsorb or not adsorb the common magnet ring 71 by supplying power to the battery iron ring, thereby pushing the valve core 63 to open or reset under the action of the spring 72, and automatically adjusting the opening and closing of the ventilation, with a simple structure and good convenience;

[0139] When it is necessary to balance the pressure inside and outside the fuel tank 1, the vent hole 3 is opened, otherwise the vent hole 3 is closed, which effectively reduces the evaporation of the fuel in the fuel tank 1 and the pollution of the fuel. The drive unit 7 is electrically connected to the electrical unit 4 in the motorcycle, and then when the motorcycle is started and powered on, the vent hole 3 is opened, otherwise the vent hole 3 is closed, which is synchronized with the supply of fuel in the fuel tank 1 to ensure the stability of the fuel supply.

[0140] Furthermore, by providing a detection unit 5 to monitor the pressure in the fuel tank 1 and the electrical connection with the electrical unit 4, safety can be effectively guaranteed when the vent hole 3 is closed, and the vent hole 3 can be opened in time to reduce the pressure increase in the fuel tank 1.
