DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] The embodiment of the utility model provides a cover structure of an overflow tank.

[0026] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 , including an overflow tank body 1, characterized in that: a clamping ring 5 is fixedly connected to the top of the overflow tank body 1, a top cover 6 is arranged on the top of the clamping ring 5, a rubber clamp 10 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the top cover 6, an elastic rope 8 is fixedly connected to one side of the top cover 6, one end of the elastic rope 8 is fixedly connected to a limiting ring 9, the limiting ring 9 is sleeved on the outside of the overflow tank body 1, and a support limiting component is arranged on the outside of the limiting ring 9.

[0027] When the rubber clamp 10 is pressed against the top of the water tank body 1, the top cover 6 is pressed down, and the elastically deformed rubber clamp 10 is deformed and passes through the outer side of the clamping ring 5. When the rubber clamp 10 moves to the outer side of the clamping ring 5, the deformed rubber clamp 10 returns to its original state. After the rubber clamp 10 at the bottom of the clamping ring 5 returns to its original state, it plays a role in limiting the top cover 6. The installation of the top cover 6 and the water tank body 1 can be completed, so that the top cover 6 and the rubber clamp 10 cooperate to seal and block the top of the water tank body 1. The top cover 6 can only be separated from the clamping ring 5 after being subjected to a force in a certain direction. When the force applied to the top cover 6 inside the water tank body 1 does not reach the threshold value of large-scale deformation of the rubber clamp 10, the force applied to the top cover 6 inside the water tank body 1 will only make the rubber clamp 10 close to the clamping ring 5, and the sealing cover formed by the top cover 6 and the rubber clamp 10 has good sealing performance.

[0028] A rubber handle 7 is fixedly connected to the side of the top cover 6 away from the elastic rope 8. The user holds the rubber handle 7 to pull the top cover 6, so that the top cover 6 drives the rubber clamp 10 to deform and leave the outside of the overflow tank body 1. An elastic rope 8 is fixedly connected to the other side of the top cover 6, and a limiting ring 9 fixed by the elastic rope 8 is sleeved on the outside of the overflow tank body 1. Therefore, the top cover 6 is limited by the elastic rope 8 and the limiting ring 9 and will not completely separate from the overflow tank body 1, thereby avoiding the top cover 6 from falling off after being removed from the top of the overflow tank body 1, ensuring the cleanliness of the top cover 6 and being able to effectively avoid the loss of the top cover 6.

[0029] A supporting pipe 3 is fixedly connected inside the lower limiting ring 2, and the supporting pipe 3 is fixedly sleeved on the outside of the overflow tank body 1, and an externally threaded pipe 4 is fixedly connected to the top of the supporting pipe 3. The supporting pipe 3 and the externally threaded pipe 4 form an interval for the limiting ring 9 to slide. The user can adjust the position between the limiting ring 9 and the top cover 6 as needed, and tighten the elastic rope 8 fixed between the limiting ring 9 and the top cover 6 to prevent the elastic rope 8 from shaking and affecting the operation of the motorcycle.

[0030] In addition, an upper limit ring 11 is provided on the outer threaded sleeve of the external threaded tube 4, and the limit collar 9 is arranged between the upper limit ring 11 and the lower limit ring 2. The upper limit ring 11 and the lower limit ring 2 limit the limit collar 9 to prevent the limit collar 9 from falling and affecting the flexible operation of the top cover 6. At the same time, the upper limit ring 11 limits the upward movement of the limit collar 9 to prevent the limit collar 9 from detaching from the overflow tank body 1 after the top cover 6 is separated from the overflow tank body 1, thereby ensuring the effect of the limit collar 9 on limiting the top cover 6, preventing the top cover 6 from falling to the ground or being lost, and ensuring the service life of the sealing cover composed of the top cover 6 and the rubber clamp 10.

[0031] A plurality of ball installation grooves 15 are provided at the top of the upper limit ring 11. The drag reduction balls 16 provided inside the plurality of ball installation grooves 15 can rotate freely, and the drag reduction balls 16 exposed from the top of the ball installation grooves 15 will not separate from the upper limit ring 11. The extrusion ring 13 provided at the top of the upper limit ring 11 is supported by the plurality of drag reduction balls 16, so that the extrusion ring 13 can rotate at the top of the upper limit ring 11, and the friction force generated between the plurality of drag reduction balls 16 and the extrusion ring 13 is small. Therefore, when the upper limit ring 11 is pushed to rotate upward on the outside of the external threaded tube 4, when the upper limit ring 11 pushes the extrusion ring 13 upward to pressurize the rubber clamp 10, the extrusion ring 13 is less worn, thereby extending the service life of the extrusion ring 13.

[0032] The bottom of the extrusion ring 13 is fixedly connected with a mounting tube 14, which is arranged inside a sliding groove 17 provided at the top of the upper limit ring 11. The mounting tube 14 and the upper limit ring 11 are rotated and mounted together. The mounting tube 14 is moved upward without affecting the rotation of the extrusion ring 13 on the top of the upper limit ring 11, and will not be separated from the mounting connection relationship with the upper limit ring 11. Therefore, after the top of the extrusion ring 13 contacts the rubber clamp 10 and is limited by the rubber clamp 10, the extrusion ring 13 can still rotate to a certain extent to control the force applied by the extrusion ring 13 to the rubber clamp 10.

[0033] A transmission plate 18 is fixedly connected to one side of the upper limit ring 11, and an operating convex plate 12 that increases friction is fixedly sleeved on the outer side of the transmission plate 18, thereby increasing the convenience of the user in using the operating convex plate 12. The user pushes the operating convex plate 12 with his fingers, and the operating convex plate 12 drives the upper limit ring 11 to rotate through the fixed transmission plate 18, so that the upper limit ring 11 rotates on the outer side of the external threaded tube 4. The upper and lower positions of the upper limit ring 11 are controlled by controlling the rotation direction of the upper limit ring 11. The upper limit ring 11 is controlled to rotate upward, and the upper limit ring 11 pushes the extrusion ring 13 sleeved on the outer side of the overflow tank body 1 to move upward. The upward extrusion ring 13 pushes the rubber clamp 10 wrapped around the outer side of the clamping ring 5, so that the rubber clamp 10 is squeezed and deformed and fits tightly against the clamping ring 5, thereby increasing the sealing effect between the rubber clamp 10 and the clamping ring 5, thereby ensuring the sealing effect of the sealing cover composed of the top cover 6 and the rubber clamp 10, and preventing liquid leakage from the overflow tank body 1.

[0034] The above shows and describes the basic principle and main features of the utility model and the advantages of the utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that the utility model is not limited by the above embodiments. The above embodiments and descriptions are only for explaining the principle of the utility model. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the utility model, the utility model may have various changes and improvements, which fall within the scope of the utility model to be protected.
