[0002] A car's fuel tank cap is the tank that stores gasoline, typically located at the rear or side of the vehicle. Its primary function is to control fuel addition and seal the tank opening to prevent leaks. The cap typically includes a locking mechanism to prevent accidental opening while driving. To add fuel, the driver can open the cap by pressing a button or unlocking a handle on the cap, then insert the fuel filler gun into the tank opening to refuel.
[0003] Most existing automobile fuel tank caps use a threaded connection to secure the sealing cap to the fuel tank opening when sealing the fuel tank opening. As a result, when the sealing cap is twisted for a long time, the threads of the sealing cap are subjected to high pressure and easily become slipped, resulting in an insufficient seal and failure to achieve an optimal sealing effect.
