DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0023] See also Figure 1-3 A zero-turn lawn vehicle fuel supply system with a recovery function in this embodiment includes two fuel tanks 1 and an engine 2. The tops of the two fuel tanks 1 are connected to return air pipes 4. A first tee 7 is arranged between the opposite ends of the two return air pipes 4. A carburetor connecting pipe 8 connected to the engine 2 is arranged on the top of the first tee 7. The ends of the two return air pipes 4 connected to the fuel tanks 1 are provided with connecting plates 3. Air bags 6 are arranged between the interiors of the two connecting plates 3 and one end of the return air pipe 4. Sealing mechanisms 5 are arranged on the front sides of the two connecting plates 3.

[0024] The two connecting plates 3 and the return air pipe 4 are both configured as an integrated structure. The two ends of the return air pipe 4 respectively penetrate the connecting plates 3 and can be connected to the fuel tank 1, and air bags 6 are provided between the two ends of the outer surface of the return air pipe 4 and the inside of the connecting plate 3. Under the action of the return air pipe 4, the gas in the fuel tank 1 can be avoided from being directly discharged. Instead, the gas generated in the fuel tank 1 is guided to the carburetor of the engine 2 through the return air pipe 4 and the carburetor connecting pipe 8 for recycling, so that the effect of reducing gas emissions can be achieved while using an ordinary fuel tank 1, thereby achieving the purpose of environmental protection. The bottoms of the two fuel tanks 1 are both provided with oil suction pipes, and the engine 2 is provided with a central pipe. The central pipe and the two oil suction pipes are connected together by a second tee, so that the gasoline in the fuel tank 1 can be transported to the engine 2.

[0025] The sealing mechanism 5 includes a mounting column 501 fixedly mounted on the front side wall of the connecting plate 3, a rectangular frame 502 being fixedly mounted on one end of the mounting column 501, a bidirectional threaded rod 503 being rotatably mounted inside the rectangular frame 502, a shift block 504 being fixedly mounted on the middle part of the bidirectional threaded rod 503, sleeves 505 being threadedly mounted on both ends of the outer surface of the bidirectional threaded rod 503, movable plates 506 being fixedly mounted on the opposite ends of the two sleeves 505, push rods 507 being fixedly mounted on the opposite sides of the two movable plates 506, piston plates 508 being fixedly mounted on the opposite ends of the two push rods 507, cylinders 509 being provided on the outer surfaces of the two piston plates 508, and an air collecting box 510 being fixedly mounted between the two cylinders 509.

[0026] Slide grooves are provided at both ends of the inner bottom wall of the rectangular frame 502, and slide rods are fixedly installed at the bottom of the two movable plates 506. Under the action of the slide grooves and the slide rods, the stability of the movable plates 506 during movement is improved. Two support blocks are fixedly installed on the inner bottom wall of the rectangular frame 502. Under the action of the support blocks, the bidirectional threaded rod 503 is conveniently supported.

[0027] A sealing plug is provided on the top of the air collecting box 510, and openings are provided on the front side wall and the top of the rectangular frame 502. The opening of the front side wall is for facilitating the rotation of the dial block 504, and the opening of the top is for opening or closing the sealing plug.

[0028] Both cylinders 509 are connected to the air collecting box 510, and the air collecting box 510 passes through the rear inner wall of the rectangular frame 502 and the connecting disk 3 and is connected to the air bag 6. Under the action of the bidirectional threaded rod 503, the sleeve 505, the movable plate 506 and the push rod 507, by rotating the dial block 504, the piston plate 508 can be driven to move in the cylinder 509, thereby squeezing the gas into the interior of the air bag 6, causing the air bag 6 to expand and fill the gap between the connecting disk 3 and the return air pipe 4, thereby improving the sealing during the connection. After the filling is completed, the sealing plug is closed to seal the air collecting box 510.

[0029] When implementing, follow these steps:

[0030] 1) First open the sealing plug on the gas collecting box 510 and rotate the shifting block 504. The shifting block 504 drives the bidirectional threaded rod 503 to rotate, and the bidirectional threaded rod 503 drives the sleeves 505 at both ends to move relative to each other.

[0031] 2) The two sleeves 505 drive the two push rods 507 to move relative to each other, and the two push rods 507 drive the two piston plates 508 to move inside the cylinder 509, and squeeze the gas generated in the cylinder 509 into the inside of the airbag 6 through the gas collecting box 510, so that the airbag 6 expands and fills the gap between the return air pipe 4 and the connecting plate 3;

[0032] 3) Finally, when the lawn mower is running, the gas in the fuel tank 1 is guided to the carburetor of the engine 2 through the return pipe 4 and the carburetor connecting pipe. When the engine 2 is working, negative pressure is generated during the intake process. The negative pressure is used by the engine 2 to mix the guided fuel gas with the air to form a combustible mixture.

[0033] To sum up, the zero-turn lawn buggy fuel supply system with recovery function can discharge the gas generated in the fuel tank 1 into the carburetor of the engine 2 by arranging the return pipe 4 and the carburetor connecting pipe 8 between the fuel tank 1 and the engine 2, and mix the oil and gas in the carburetor of the engine 2, thereby avoiding the pollution to the environment caused by direct discharge of gas, effectively utilizing the vacuum generated by the engine 2 itself, realizing the recovery and reuse of gas, and achieving the effect of energy saving and environmental protection.

[0034] Furthermore, by providing the airbag 6, the gas can be squeezed into the interior of the airbag 6 under the action of the sealing mechanism 5. When the airbag 6 expands, the gap between the return air pipe 4 and the connecting plate 3 is filled, thereby improving the tightness of the return air pipe 4 when connected, effectively preventing gas leakage, and achieving a better sealing effect.
