[0002] A gasoline engine is an internal combustion engine that generates power by burning gasoline. In existing gasoline engine fuel tanks, the fuel inlet pipe and tank body are typically blow-molded together. As a result, the joint between the pipe and the tank body is a vulnerable point and prone to cracking due to the material. Plastic fuel tanks are also prone to static electricity, posing a safety hazard. Furthermore, existing gasoline engine fuel tanks typically have three or four supports on their outer surface, leaving significant room for improvement. Utility Model Content

Only two support blocks need to be set on the main fuel tank to stably fix it with the outer box, making the fuel tank process simpler, with fewer structures and lower costs.
[0004] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, an integrally formed plastic fuel tank is provided, comprising: an outer box for a plastic fuel tank, a main fuel tank is arranged inside the outer box, an oil inlet pipe is fixedly connected to the top of the main fuel tank, a thread is arranged on the circumferential surface of the oil inlet pipe, a tightening nut is threadedly connected to the circumferential surface of the oil inlet pipe, an overflow port fixing piece is provided below the tightening nut, an overflow port rubber sleeve is clamped on the top of the overflow port fixing piece, a left support block is fixedly connected to the left side wall of the main fuel tank, a left rubber sleeve is sleeved on the left support block, a right support block is fixedly connected to the right side wall of the main fuel tank, a right rubber sleeve is sleeved on the right support block, and an oil outlet nozzle is threadedly connected to the bottom of the main fuel tank.
[0005] According to the one-piece plastic fuel tank, the outer box includes a left box and a right box, each of which is provided with a clamping slot, and the main fuel tank is clamped to the outer box via a left support block, a left rubber sleeve, a right support block, and a right rubber sleeve, so as to fix the main fuel tank inside the outer box.
[0006] According to the one-piece plastic fuel tank, the left rubber sleeve and the right rubber sleeve are both made of nitrile rubber, which has good wear resistance and oil resistance and a long service life.
[0007] According to the one-piece plastic oil tank, the left support block and the right support block are asymmetrically arranged to fix the main oil tank.
[0008] According to the one-piece plastic oil tank, the overflow port fixing piece is clamped with the outer box and is located between the tightening nut and the overflow port rubber sleeve, and is used to fix the oil inlet pipe to the outer box.
[0009] According to the one-piece plastic fuel tank, the main fuel tank and fuel inlet pipe are both made of high-density polyethylene and are integrally formed using a blow molding process. This makes the connection between the main fuel tank and the fuel inlet pipe more secure and less prone to cracking, and also significantly suppresses the generation of static electricity, thereby improving the safety of the plastic fuel tank.
