There's a bus every 20 minutes. We use every + singular noun to mean all the people or things in a group, and this often suggests there is a large number in the group. Every child needs a healthy diet.
If you want to emphasize the group, use every. When used before a singular noun, each and every are followed by a singular verb. After a plural subject, only each can be used and is followed by a plural subject. Every is always followed by a singular verb.
In addition to the common usage illustrated above (structure 1) , each (but not every) can be used in two other ways. Each can be followed by of the and a plural noun . When this structure is used in the subject of a sentence, the verb is in the singular (structure 2)
