[0030] Reference Figure 1~Figure 3, which is the first embodiment of the utility model, proposes a split embedded part, including an embedded part 1, which is used to be preset on a forming mold 2 of a fuel tank. After the fuel tank is blow-molded, one end of the embedded part 1 is connected to a blank 3 of the fuel tank; a baffle valve 4 is arranged on the inner wall of the blank 3, and the baffle valve 4 is concentric with the embedded part 1. After the fuel tank is opened, the baffle valve 4 is connected to the embedded part 1.

[0031] In this embodiment, in order to solve the problem of high risk of fuel leakage after ICV installation in the related art, the ICV is designed to be split, consisting of two parts: an embedded part 1 and a flapper valve 4. Before the fuel tank is blow-molded, the embedded part 1 is first placed in the molding mold 2, and then during the blow molding of the fuel tank, the parison 3 can be connected to one end of the embedded part 1. After the parison 3 is preformed, the flapper valve 4 is installed on the inner wall of the parison 3, and the flapper valve 4 is concentric with the embedded part 1. After the fuel tank is completely formed, the parison 3 between the embedded part 1 and the flapper valve 4 is opened to connect the embedded part 1 and the flapper valve 4. Compared with the traditional ICV structure, the split ICV can be installed on the fuel tank during the blow molding process of the fuel tank. As the preform 3 is formed, the preform 3 can first be covered on one end of the embedded part 1. When installing the baffle valve 4, the preform 3 is still in a high temperature state. If the temperature is not enough, the preform 3 can be heated. At this time, the baffle valve 4 is plugged into the preform 3. After the fuel tank is fully formed, the embedded part 1 and the baffle valve 4 can form a stable connection relationship with the preform 3, thereby ensuring that the ICV and the fuel tank are connected more closely and the sealing performance of the fuel tank is guaranteed.

[0032] Furthermore, the embedded part 1 has an inserting portion 101 and an abutting portion 102 . The inserting portion 101 is used to be preset on the molding die 2 . The abutting portion 102 has a first step 1021 on one side close to the inserting portion 101 . The first step 1021 abuts against the outer wall of the parison 3 .

[0033] In this embodiment, the insertion part 101 is provided to facilitate the pre-insertion of the embedded part 1 into the forming mold 2. After the preform 3 is preformed, the abutment part 102 is fixed to the preform 3. The first step 1021 is conveniently inserted into the preform 3 to form a stable connection.

[0034] Furthermore, the plug-in portion 101 has a plurality of annular protrusions 1011 at one end close to the abutting portion 102 , and the annular protrusions 1011 are used to abut against the forming mold 2 .

[0035] In this embodiment, the annular protrusion 1011 is provided to facilitate the insertion of the plug-in portion 101 into the molding die 2. The annular protrusion 1011 can play a guiding role in the process of inserting the embedded part 1 into the molding die 2. This improves the efficiency of inserting the embedded part 1 into the molding die 2, and can further better cooperate with the plug-in portion 101 and the molding die 2, without leaving a gap for the embedded part 1 to be inserted when opening a hole in the molding die 2. This improves the quality of the blow molding of the fuel tank.

[0036] Furthermore, it also includes a second step 1022, which has a large end 1023 and a small end 1024. The diameter of the large end 1023 is larger than the diameter of the small end 1024. The large end 1023 is arranged on the first step 1021, and the plug-in part 101, the abutting part 102, the first step 1021 and the second step 1022 are connected in sequence.

[0037] In this embodiment, a second step 1022 is further provided on the first step 1021. The second step 1022 is provided to increase the contact area between the embedded part 1 and the preform 3. Thus, the connection between the preform 3 and the embedded part 1 is more stable, thereby improving the air tightness of the fuel tank and reducing the risk of fuel leakage.

[0038] Furthermore, the baffle valve 4 includes a connecting cylinder 401, one end of which is arranged on the inner wall of the blank 3; one end of the valve plate 402 is rotatably arranged on the other end of the connecting cylinder 401; the first elastic member 403 is arranged at both ends respectively on the connecting cylinder 401 and the valve plate 402, and the first elastic member 403 is used to provide a force for the valve plate 402 to rotate close to the connecting cylinder 401.

[0039] In this embodiment, the flapper valve 4 is composed of a connecting tube 401, a valve plate 402 and a first elastic member 403. The first elastic member 403 provides a restoring elastic force for the valve plate 402, so that when no fuel enters the fuel tank from the connecting tube 401, the fuel tank is in a self-sealing state, and even if the staff forgets to cover the lid, the fuel can be prevented from leaking and volatilizing, thereby making the fuel tank safer and more reliable.

[0040] Furthermore, the baffle valve 4 has a groove 4011 at one end close to the preform 3 , and the groove 4011 is used to abut against the preform 3 .

[0041] In this embodiment, the contact area between the connecting tube 401 and the preform 3 is further increased by providing the slot 4011. During the installation of the baffle valve 4, the preform 3 is partially deformed in the slot 4011 and fills the entire slot 4011, thereby improving the reliability of the connection of the baffle valve 4 and preventing the baffle valve 4 from falling off due to vibration, impact, etc. during the use of the fuel tank.

[0042] Furthermore, the connecting tube 401 has a guide surface 4012 , which is located at one end of the connecting tube 401 close to the slot 4011 . The guide surface 4012 is ring-shaped, and the diameter of the guide surface 4012 close to the parison 3 is smaller than the diameter of the other end of the guide surface 4012 .

[0043] In this embodiment, in order to make it easier for the connecting cylinder 401 to be installed on the inner wall of the preform 3, a guide surface 4012 is provided at one end of the connecting cylinder 401 close to the preform 3. Since the end with a smaller diameter of the guide surface 4012 faces the preform 3, during the process of installing the baffle valve 4 by a robot or other tool, the force on the entire baffle valve 4 is more uniform, the depth of installation on the preform 3 in the entire circumferential direction can be kept consistent, and a stable connection relationship is established between the connecting cylinder 4 and the preform 3, thereby reducing the risk of fuel leakage.

[0044] Furthermore, the outer wall of the connecting tube 401 is cylindrical, and one end of the connecting tube 401 away from the parison 3 has a circulation portion 4013 and a fixing portion 4014 , and the valve plate 402 is rotatably disposed on the fixing portion 4014 .

[0045] In this embodiment, the valve plate 402 is installed on the fixed part 4014 of the connecting cylinder 401, and the circulation part 4013 is used for fuel to pass through, so that the overall shape of the connecting cylinder 401 is a regular cylindrical shape, which is convenient for equipment such as a robot to grasp and install the connecting cylinder 401. At the same time, since the entire baffle valve 4 has a regular shape, it is also more convenient to store the baffle valve 4.

[0046] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model rather than to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, ordinary technicians in the field should understand that the technical solution of the utility model can be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of the utility model, which should be included in the scope of the claims of the utility model.
