Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of motorcycle fuel tank technology and relates to an anti-expansion structure for motorcycle fuel tanks. Background Technology
[0002] Motorcycles are a common mode of transportation in daily life and are loved by many riders. In the structure of a motorcycle, the fuel tank stores gasoline, providing power for riding, and is an important part of the motorcycle.
[0003] Motorcycle fuel tanks are usually made of plastic. Because the inside of the fuel tank is sealed, gasoline will produce vapor inside the tank when the temperature is high in summer. This will increase the internal pressure and cause the fuel tank to expand, affecting the normal use of other parts. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to address the problems existing in the current technology by proposing an anti-expansion structure for motorcycle fuel tanks. The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is: how to prevent motorcycle fuel tanks from expanding.
[0005] The objective of this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solution: an anti-expansion structure for a motorcycle fuel tank, comprising an upper shell and a lower shell, wherein the upper shell is integrally formed and connected to the lower shell, and the inner sides of the upper shell and the lower shell are provided with a sealed oil storage cavity, the top of the upper shell is provided with an oil filling port connected to the oil storage cavity, the center of the upper shell is provided with a downwardly recessed upper cylindrical groove, the center of the lower shell is provided with a lower cylindrical groove recessed to one side of the upper cylindrical groove, and a horizontal connecting plate is provided at the connection between the upper cylindrical groove and the lower cylindrical groove, wherein the connecting plate is provided with a longitudinally arranged circular through hole.
[0006] In this design, gasoline can be added to the fuel storage chamber through the filler neck. When the pressure inside the fuel tank increases, the upper and lower cylindrical grooves at the center can pull the upper and lower shells together, improving the structural strength of the fuel tank and preventing expansion and cracking between the upper and lower shells. Furthermore, a connecting plate is installed at the connection point, which can pull the outer walls of the upper and lower cylindrical grooves together, further improving the fuel tank's anti-expansion capability. The through hole in the middle can connect the upper and lower cylindrical grooves at both ends, preventing water accumulation inside the upper cylindrical groove.
[0007] In the aforementioned anti-expansion structure of the motorcycle fuel tank, a connecting shell is provided on the periphery of the upper and lower cylindrical grooves. The cross-section of the connecting shell is "H"-shaped, and the upper and lower ends of the connecting shell are integrally connected to the upper and lower shells, respectively. The upper and lower cylindrical grooves are enclosed by the connecting shells on the periphery. When the pressure inside the fuel tank increases, the connecting shells pull the upper and lower shells together, and the connecting shells can support the upper and lower shells of the fuel tank, preventing the fuel tank from deforming under pressure.
[0008] In the aforementioned anti-expansion structure of the motorcycle fuel tank, a fuel pump mounting plate is fixedly connected to the top of the upper housing. The fuel pump mounting plate has several integrally connected studs, and its bottom is connected to the fuel storage chamber. The fuel pump mounting plate and studs are used to fix the fuel pump, enabling it to draw fuel from the fuel tank.
[0009] In the aforementioned anti-expansion structure for a motorcycle fuel tank, the top of the upper housing is provided with a downwardly recessed mounting groove, the fuel pump mounting plate is disposed inside the mounting groove, and the mounting groove is provided with placement grooves extending to both sides. The mounting groove and placement grooves are downwardly recessed to accommodate the fuel pump.
[0010] In the aforementioned anti-expansion structure for a motorcycle fuel tank, limiting grooves are provided on both sides of the upper shell, and upward-protruding limiting blocks are provided inside the limiting grooves. Several mounting holes are provided at the bottom of the limiting grooves. The limiting grooves are used to connect with the structure on the frame, enabling the fuel tank to be fixed to the frame.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:
[0012] 1. In this design, when the pressure inside the tank increases, the upper and lower cylindrical grooves at the center can pull the upper and lower shells together, thus improving the structural strength of the tank and preventing the upper and lower shells from expanding and cracking.

Detailed Implementation
[0017] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention, which are described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.
[0018] Example
[0019] like Figure 1 As shown, the anti-expansion structure of the motorcycle fuel tank includes an upper shell 1 and a lower shell 2. The upper shell 1 is integrally formed and connected to the lower shell 2. The top of the upper shell 1 is provided with a downwardly recessed mounting groove 3. The mounting groove 3 is provided with placement grooves 3a extending to both sides inside. The mounting groove 3 is provided with a fixed oil pump mounting plate 4 inside. The oil pump mounting plate 4 is provided with several integrally connected studs 4a. The upper shell 1 is provided with limiting grooves 5 on both sides. The limiting grooves 5 are provided with upwardly protruding limiting blocks 5a inside. The bottom of the limiting grooves 5 is provided with several mounting holes 5b.
[0020] like Figure 2 Combination Figure 3 As shown, the inner sides of the upper housing 1 and the lower housing 2 are provided with a sealed oil storage cavity 6. The top of the upper housing 1 is provided with an oil filling port 1a connected to the oil storage cavity 6. A connecting housing 7 is provided at the center of the upper housing 1 and the lower housing 2. The cross-section of the connecting housing 7 is "H" shaped. The upper and lower ends of the connecting housing 7 are integrally connected to the upper housing 1 and the lower housing 2, respectively. The top of the connecting housing 7 is provided with an upper cylindrical groove 1b, and the bottom of the connecting housing 7 is provided with a lower cylindrical groove 2a. A horizontal connecting plate 8 is provided at the connection between the upper cylindrical groove 1b and the lower cylindrical groove 2a.
