[0010] Furthermore, the shell includes a base, an intermediate bracket and a top cover which are connected in sequence, and the base is fixed on the oil cup; the first corrugated diaphragm is clamped around the base and the intermediate bracket, and the second corrugated diaphragm is clamped around the intermediate bracket and the top cover; the shell arranged in this way can more easily fix the first corrugated diaphragm and the second corrugated diaphragm.
[0011] Furthermore, air holes are provided on the side walls of the intermediate bracket; when the first corrugated diaphragm and the second corrugated diaphragm are deformed, the volume of the space formed between the first corrugated diaphragm, the second corrugated diaphragm and the intermediate bracket will change. In order to avoid the influence of the air pressure change in the space on the operation of the corrugated diaphragm assembly, air holes are provided to discharge or inhale the outside air to keep the air pressure stable.
[0012] Furthermore, the pneumatic elastic member is a bellows, one end of which is open and the other end is closed; the open end of the bellows is fixed to the shell, the branch pipe is connected to the inner cavity of the bellows through the air inlet, and the ejector pin is fixed to the closed end of the bellows; when gas is connected, there is pressure in the branch pipe, the gas in the inner cavity of the bellows squeezes the bellows assembly to deform, the bellows stretches, and then drives the ejector pin to be lifted to block the fuel channel.
