[0002] With the increasing widespread use of three fuels (gasoline, LPG, NG) in general gasoline engine products (hereinafter referred to as "general engines"), gaseous fuels are more economical and environmentally friendly than gasoline. The gas fuel control systems currently used in general engines are mainly divided into carburetor self-priming solenoid valve structures, electronic fuel injection gas stepping motors, and electronic fuel injection gas solenoid valve structures; the electronic fuel injection system can better control the ratio of fuel and air, and self-correct according to the environment, load, etc., which is more environmentally friendly and energy-saving. However, the current electronic fuel injection gas solenoid valve structures are diverse. Through experimental tests and verifications, the structure, shape, and length of the gas passage will all affect the combustion quality, resulting in phenomena such as excessive emissions and insufficient performance. Summary of the Utility Model

[0003] In order to improve the consistency of gas emissions and performance, meet strict emission requirements, better control the combustion quality, reduce the emissions of harmful substances, and improve fuel economy, the present application provides a multi-fuel solenoid valve and a gas control system.

[0004] In a first aspect, the present application provides a multi-fuel solenoid valve, including a solenoid valve body, solenoid valve Ⅰ, solenoid valve Ⅱ, an intake pipe, and an exhaust pipe. The solenoid valve Ⅰ and solenoid valve Ⅱ are arranged in parallel on the top of the solenoid valve body. The intake pipe is arranged on the side of the solenoid valve body, and the exhaust pipe is arranged at the bottom of the solenoid valve body;

[0005] A first channel, a second channel, a first vertical pipe, and a second vertical pipe are arranged in a cross shape inside the solenoid valve body. The bottom end of the first vertical pipe passes through the second channel and is connected to the second channel. The top end of the first vertical pipe passes through the first channel and is blocked or opened by the solenoid valve Ⅰ;

[0006] The bottom end of the second vertical pipe passes through the second channel and is connected to the second channel. The top end of the second vertical pipe passes through the first channel and is blocked or opened by the solenoid valve Ⅱ;

The distances from the intake pipe to the first vertical pipe and the second vertical pipe are equal, and the distances from the exhaust pipe to the first vertical pipe and the second vertical pipe are also equal.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solutions, the technical parameters of the solenoid valve Ⅰ and solenoid valve Ⅱ assembled on the solenoid valve body can be the same product, and the interfaces can be interchanged when connecting the wiring harness.

[0013] Optionally, it further includes a pressure sensor, and the pressure sensor is communicated with the end of the first channel.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the pressure sensor can sense the pressure of the gas in the pipeline, and thus be electrically connected and cooperate with the electronic fuel injection system to control the pulse width of the opening of solenoid valve I and solenoid valve II according to the actual pressure value.

[0022] Optionally, a sealing ring is arranged in the opening of the third mounting hole.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, it helps to improve the sealing performance at the installation position of the pressure sensor and reduce the risk of air leakage.

[0024] In a second aspect, the present application provides a gas control system, including a natural gas pipeline, a CNG gas cylinder, an LPG gas cylinder, a first-stage pressure reducing valve I, a first-stage pressure reducing valve II, a general-purpose engine, and the above-mentioned multi-fuel solenoid valve;

Detailed Description of the Embodiment

[0035] The following further describes the present application in detail with reference to the Figures 1-3 drawings.

[0036] In the first aspect, an embodiment of the present application discloses a multi-fuel solenoid valve. Referring to Figures 1-2 , a multi-fuel solenoid valve includes a solenoid valve body (3), a solenoid valve I (1), a solenoid valve II (6), a pressure sensor (2), an intake pipe (5), and an outlet pipe (4).

[0037] Inside the solenoid valve body (3), a first channel (31), a second channel (32), a first vertical pipe (33) and a second vertical pipe (34) are arranged in a cross shape. The bottom end of the first vertical pipe (33) passes through the second channel (32) and communicates with the second channel (32). The top end of the first vertical pipe (33) passes through the first channel (31) and is blocked or opened by the solenoid valve Ⅰ (1); the bottom end of the second vertical pipe (34) passes through the second channel (32) and communicates with the second channel (32). The top end of the second vertical pipe (34) passes through the first channel (31) and is blocked or opened by the solenoid valve Ⅱ (6); the pistons at the bottoms of the solenoid valve Ⅰ (1) and the solenoid valve Ⅱ (6) can rise or fall, so as to block or open the top ends of the first vertical pipe (33) and the second vertical pipe (34). Gas enters the first channel (31) from the intake pipe (5). When the piston at the bottom of the solenoid valve Ⅰ (1) rises, the gas flows upward and enters the first vertical pipe (33); the same is true for the gas entering the second vertical pipe (34).

[0038] The intake pipe (5) communicates with the middle of the first channel (31), the intake pipe (5) communicates with the middle of the second channel (32). The distances from the intake pipe (5) to the first vertical pipe (33) and the second vertical pipe (34) are equal, and the distances from the outlet pipe (4) to the first vertical pipe (33) and the second vertical pipe (34) are also equal.

[0039] The technical parameters of the solenoid valve Ⅰ (1) and the solenoid valve Ⅱ (6) assembled on the solenoid valve body (3) can be the same product, and the interfaces can be interchanged when connecting the wire harness.

[0042] Moreover, the design of an air outlet makes the gas pipeline of the whole machine more concise and the structure simpler. At the same time, the number of gas pipeline joints is reduced, directly reducing the risk of joint air leakage and having higher safety.

The first vertical pipe (33) and the second vertical pipe (34) are respectively arranged in the corresponding connecting pipes (7); plugs are arranged at the end of the first channel (31), the end of the second channel (32) and the bottom of the connecting pipe (7) on the second channel (32). The arrangement of the connecting pipes (7) facilitates the installation of the first vertical pipe (33) and the second vertical pipe (34), and at the same time, the plugs can reduce the risk of air leakage.

Solenoid valve I (1) is threadedly connected in the first mounting hole (35), and solenoid valve II (6) is threadedly connected in the second mounting hole (36), which is convenient for the installation of solenoid valve I (1) and solenoid valve II (6). Sealing rings (8) are arranged in the openings of the first mounting hole (35) and the second mounting hole (36), which helps to improve the sealing performance at the installation positions of solenoid valve I (1) and solenoid valve II (6) and reduce the risk of air leakage. A third mounting hole (37) is opened on the side surface of the solenoid valve body (3). The third mounting hole (37) is communicated with the end of the first channel (31). The pressure sensor (2) passes through the third mounting hole (37) and is communicated with the end of the first channel (31). A sealing ring (8) is arranged in the opening of the third mounting hole (37), which helps to improve the sealing performance at the installation position of the pressure sensor (2) and reduce the risk of air leakage.
