The gas storage tank 15 is connected with the multi-fuel internal combustion engine body 1 through a pressure buffer air inlet assembly, which includes a main air inlet pipe assembly and a pressure relief sub-air inlet pipe assembly.

Natural gas can also be replaced by methane purified from biogenic anaerobic fermentation, so it can also be green fuel.
[0040] Similarly, for the liquefied petroleum gas (mainly composed of propane and butane) supply assembly, liquefied petroleum gas flows from the liquefied petroleum gas cylinder 33, through the liquefied petroleum gas supply pipe 43, sequentially through the liquefied petroleum gas electric valve 34, the liquefied petroleum gas automatic pressure sensing pump 35, and the one-way valve six 36 for the one-way flow of liquefied petroleum gas, to the gas storage tank 15, and then through the pressure buffer intake assembly into the multi-fuel internal combustion engine body 1.
[0041] One or more of the above can be selected for fuel supply.
[0042] Because natural gas can be replaced by methane purified from biogenic anaerobic fermentation, the above-mentioned methanol, hydrogen, and (methane) natural gas and liquefied petroleum gas can all be green fuels, meeting green environmental protection requirements.
[0043] As shown in Figure 1 As an optional embodiment of the present application, the main intake pipe assembly includes a main intake pipe 16 for connecting the gas storage tank 15 and the multi-fuel internal combustion engine body 1, and a flow regulating valve 17 installed on the main intake pipe 16.

The gas storage tank 15 and the buffer tank 19 are connected through the pressure relief pipe 45, and a pressure relief valve 18 is installed on the pressure relief pipe 45. The buffer tank 19 is connected to the multi-fuel internal combustion engine body 1 through the sub-intake pipe 46, and a one-way valve two 20 is installed on the sub-intake pipe 46 for the input of combustible mixed gas.
[0044] Specifically, after the combustible mixed gas flows into the gas storage tank 15, if the pressure is within the set threshold, the combustible mixed gas enters the multi-fuel internal combustion engine body 1 through the main intake pipe 16 and the flow regulating valve 17. After the combustible mixed gas flows into the gas storage tank 15, if the pressure is above the set threshold, part of the combustible mixed gas enters the pressure relief pipe 45, passes through the pressure relief valve 18, enters the buffer tank 19, and then flows out through the sub-intake pipe 46, and enters the multi-fuel internal combustion engine body 1 through the one-way valve two 20. When the sub-intake pipe 46 is connected to the multi-fuel internal combustion engine body 1 alone, a flow regulating valve can also be provided on the sub-intake pipe 46.
[0045] As Figure 1 shown, as an optional embodiment of the present application, the branch air inlet pipe 46 is in communication with the main air inlet pipe 16 at a position between the flow regulating valve 17 and the gas storage tank 15.
[0046] Specifically, the common pipe body is shared by the main air inlet pipe assembly and the pressure relief branch air inlet pipe assembly when entering the multi-fuel internal combustion engine body 1, so that the pipe fittings can be saved, and the communication position of the branch air inlet pipe 46 and the main air inlet pipe 16 is between the flow regulating valve 17 and the gas storage tank 15, so that the flow can be regulated by the flow regulating valve 17.
[0047] It should be noted that a one-way valve can also be provided on the main air inlet pipe 16.
[0048] As Figure 1 shown, as an optional embodiment of the present application, the exhaust pipe of the multi-fuel internal combustion engine body 1 includes an exhaust pipe one 2, an exhaust pipe two 4, and an exhaust pipe three 12, the exhaust pipe one 2 is used to communicate the exhaust gas outlet of the multi-fuel internal combustion engine body 1 and the air inlet of the exhaust gas heating and cooling temperature control assembly 3, the exhaust pipe two 4 is used to communicate the air outlet of the exhaust gas heating and cooling temperature control assembly 3 and the mixed reformer jacket 5, and one end of the exhaust pipe three 12 is in communication with the mixed reformer jacket 5, and the other end is an exhaust end.
[0049] For the exhaust gas heating and cooling temperature control assembly 3, an electric heater can be used for heating: using electric current to convert energy into heat; a hot air blower can also be used: heating air and blowing it out, which is used to warm indoor air, or a cast heating element can also be used: for example, a ceramic heating element, which can reach high temperature in a short time. For the cooling part, a cooler (such as a water cooler or an air cooler) can be used: through a heat exchanger device to transfer heat to a fluid, or a fan can be used to take away heat. The exhaust gas heating and cooling temperature control assembly 3 uses a combination of heating and cooling components, which work independently or simultaneously to achieve the required exhaust gas temperature of the methanol and gasoline-diesel mixed reformer 11.

[0051] Because the high temperature of the exhaust gas is conducive to promoting the reforming and cracking conversion of methanol and gasoline-diesel in the methanol and gasoline-diesel mixed reformer 11, when the temperature of the exhaust gas is not high enough, it is not conducive to promoting the complete reforming and cracking conversion of methanol and gasoline-diesel in the methanol and gasoline-diesel mixed reformer 11 into gas, but it can be compensated by the exhaust gas heating and cooling temperature control assembly 3, therefore the temperature of the exhaust gas heating and cooling temperature control assembly 3 can be set according to actual needs to determine whether to compensate for the high temperature required for reforming and cracking conversion when the temperature of the exhaust gas is not high enough.
