[0002] The fuel tank cap is an important component of the fuel tank. Its main function is to seal the fuel tank, prevent fuel leakage and foreign impurities from entering the fuel tank, and ensure the cleanliness and safety of the fuel. The fuel tank cap is usually located on the top or side of the fuel tank. The specific location varies depending on the vehicle model.

[0003] The condition and sealing of the fuel tank cap are crucial to the normal use and driving safety of the motorcycle. If the fuel tank cap is damaged, lost or poorly sealed, fuel leakage may occur, which will not only waste fuel, but may also pollute the environment and even cause safety hazards such as fire. Therefore, car owners should regularly check the condition and sealing of the fuel tank cap to ensure that it is intact and tightly closed.

[0004] The existing fuel tank cap generally includes a cap body, a fuel cap plug and a turning handle. When in use, the turning handle is turned to drive the cap body to rotate, and the threads on the outer surface of the fuel cap plug spirally engage the inner wall of the oil inlet, thereby achieving the effect of sealing the oil inlet. However, when using the fuel tank cap of this structure, due to its relatively simple structure, if the road is bumpy during driving, the fuel tank cap is prone to loosening after long-term use, which to a certain extent reduces the sealing performance of the fuel tank cap.

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new fuel tank cover assembly to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content
