The sealing needle is used to block the liquid fuel inlet, and the reset member is used to reset the sealing needle.

[0042] The first air chamber housing 23 is arranged on the carburetor body 1, the second air chamber housing 24 is arranged on the outside of the first air chamber housing 23, the air chamber cover 25 is arranged on the outside of the second air chamber housing 24, the first diaphragm 26 is located between the second air chamber housing 24 and the first air chamber housing 23, the second diaphragm 27 is located between the air chamber cover 25 and the second air chamber housing 24, one end of the negative pressure channel 28 is connected to the second air chamber housing 24, and the other end of the negative pressure channel 28 is connected to the intake channel 11.

[0043] In this embodiment, the principles of the sealing needle, reset member, oil cup 12 and main metering channel of the oil-gas automatic switching device 2 are the same as those of the new dual-fuel carburetor oil-gas automatic switching device 2 in the background technology, and will not be repeated here.

[0044] According to some embodiments of the present application, optionally, a first chamber is formed between the first air chamber housing 23 and the first diaphragm 26 , a second chamber is formed between the first diaphragm 26 and the second diaphragm 27 , and the negative pressure channel 28 is connected to the second chamber.

[0045] In this way, negative pressure can be provided to the second diaphragm 27 to assist the second diaphragm 27 in pushing the first diaphragm 26 .

[0046] According to some embodiments of the present application, optionally, an air inlet hole 241 is provided on the second air chamber shell 24 , the air inlet channel 11 is connected to the air inlet hole 241 , and the air inlet hole 241 is located in the second chamber.

[0047] In this way, the air inlet channel 11 is connected to the second chamber through the air inlet hole 241 to provide negative pressure.

[0048] According to some embodiments of the present application, optionally, the second air chamber housing 24 is provided with a gas groove 242 , the gas groove 242 is communicated with the air inlet 241 , and the gas groove 242 is provided on a side opposite to the second diaphragm 27 .

[0049] In this way, the second diaphragm 27 is better attracted by the gas groove 242 and the force is evenly distributed.

[0050] According to some embodiments of the present application, optionally, the cross-sectional shape of the gas groove 242 is arc-shaped, and the air inlet 241 is connected to the middle portion of the gas groove 242 .

[0051] In this way, the negative pressure is made more uniform through the arc-shaped gas groove 242 , and the second diaphragm 27 is better adsorbed to provide negative pressure for the second diaphragm 27 .

[0052] According to some embodiments of the present application, optionally, an air inlet is provided on the air chamber cover 25 , and the second diaphragm 27 and the air chamber cover 25 form a third chamber.

[0053] In this embodiment, the principles of the first chamber, the second chamber and the third chamber are the same as those of the novel dual-fuel carburetor oil-gas automatic switching device 2 in the background art, and will not be repeated here.

[0054] In this way, air can be easily introduced into the air chamber cover 25 through the air inlet.

[0055] According to some embodiments of the present application, optionally, a vent hole 243 is provided on the second air chamber housing 24 , and the vent hole 243 is communicated with the second chamber.

[0056] In this way, the vent hole 243 is connected to the external atmospheric pressure. During use, when only the liquefied gas or natural gas is open, the second diaphragm 27 is subjected to positive pressure. The second diaphragm 27 is attached to the second air chamber housing 24, blocking the vent hole 243. When the engine is running at high speed, the negative pressure channel 28 provides negative pressure. The second diaphragm 27 receives the superposition of positive and negative pressures at the same time, pushing the first diaphragm 26.

[0057] If the liquefied gas or natural gas is not opened and there is no positive pressure on the second diaphragm 27, the second diaphragm 27 will not be attached to the second air chamber housing 24, the vent hole 243 will not be closed, and the second chamber will be connected to the atmosphere. In this case, the engine will generate negative pressure, but it will not close the first diaphragm 26. In other words, when using liquid fuel, the first diaphragm 26 will not be affected and the liquid fuel inlet will not be closed.

[0058] According to some embodiments of the present application, optionally, a first ventilation joint 244 is provided on the second air chamber housing 24, and the first ventilation joint 244 is connected to the interior of the second air chamber housing 24; a second ventilation joint 111 is provided on the carburetor body 1, and the second ventilation joint 111 is connected to the intake channel 11; one end of the negative pressure channel 28 is sealedly connected to the first ventilation joint 244, and the other end of the negative pressure channel 28 is sealedly connected to the second ventilation joint 111.

[0059] In this way, the negative pressure channel 28 can be easily installed.

[0060] According to some embodiments of the present application, optionally, the surface area of ​​the second diaphragm 27 is greater than the surface area of ​​the first diaphragm 26 .

[0061] In this way, the second diaphragm 27 can push the first diaphragm 26 more easily.

[0062] Different from the prior art, the technical solution of the present application is provided with a negative pressure channel 28, one end of the negative pressure channel 28 is connected to the second air chamber shell 24, and the other end of the negative pressure channel 28 is connected to the intake channel 11, and the negative pressure of the intake channel 11 is borrowed through the negative pressure channel 28; when the engine is running at a low speed, the pressure of the gas fuel is sufficient to push the second diaphragm 27, the second diaphragm 27 pushes the first diaphragm 26, and the first diaphragm 26 drives the sealing needle to close the liquid fuel inlet; when the engine is running at a high speed, a large negative pressure is generated in the intake channel 11, and the pressure of the gas fuel is insufficient to push the second diaphragm 27, and the negative pressure of the intake channel 11 is utilized through the intake channel 11 to suck the second diaphragm 27, providing the second diaphragm 27 with sufficient force to close the fuel inlet, and the liquid fuel channel is completely closed, thereby preventing the liquid fuel and the gas fuel from mixing and supplying the engine.

[0063] The present application provides a carburetor system, comprising any one of the above-mentioned automatic oil-gas switching carburetors.

[0064] In this embodiment, the liquefied gas tank is connected to the three-way valve through a pressure reducing valve. One outlet end of the three-way valve is connected to the air inlet of the oil-gas automatic switching device 2, providing positive pressure for the second diaphragm 27 of the oil-gas automatic switching device 2. The second diaphragm 27 drives the first diaphragm 26, and the first diaphragm 26 closes the liquid fuel inlet; the other outlet end of the three-way valve passes through the negative pressure valve to the carburetor and finally enters the engine.

[0065] Alternatively, the natural gas pipeline is connected to a three-way valve, one outlet end of the three-way valve is connected to the air inlet of the oil-gas automatic switching device 2, providing positive pressure for the second diaphragm 27 of the oil-gas automatic switching device 2, the second diaphragm 27 drives the first diaphragm 26, and the first diaphragm 26 closes the liquid fuel inlet; the other outlet end of the three-way valve passes through the negative pressure valve to the carburetor and finally enters the engine.

[0066] However, when the engine is running at high speed, the pressure of the liquefied gas tank or the natural gas pipeline is sucked away by the engine. The pressure of the liquefied gas tank or the natural gas pipeline is low and cannot drive the second diaphragm 27 to push the first diaphragm 26. Therefore, a negative pressure channel 28 is added to provide negative pressure for the first diaphragm 26 to compensate for the thrust of the first diaphragm 26 pushing the second diaphragm 27.

[0067] Those skilled in the art will appreciate that, although some embodiments herein include certain features included in other embodiments but not other features, combinations of features from different embodiments are intended to be within the scope of this application and to form different embodiments. For example, in the claims, any one of the claimed embodiments may be used in any combination.

[0068] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, rather than to limit them. Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or make equivalent replacements for some or all of the technical features therein. These modifications or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application, and they should all be included in the scope of the claims and specification of the present application. In particular, as long as there is no structural conflict, the various technical features mentioned in the various embodiments can be combined in any way.
