Description

"ELECTRIC POWER GENERATOR USING DRINKING WATER WITH OXYGEN AND HYDROGEN RELEASE" DESCRIPTION

[001] The object of the present patent application is a drinking water electricity generator that discharges oxygen and hydrogen based on the differential electronegativity phenomenon of chemical elements, which uses drinking water to transfer electric charges.

For example, six of the generator element or other insulator plastic tubes (Figure 1) were employed each having inside a pair of spiral electrodes, one made from copper and one made from aluminum. Some plastic dividers or other insulator should be between the electrodes so that they do not touch each other. The elements are connected in series through the interconnection of conductors, such as batteries. The shell of the elements may be made from an insulating material or may even be an electrode.

[003] A potential difference is created in each element that is about 0.5 V direct current between the aluminum and copper electrodes. If materials with a higher electronegativity difference are to be used then the potential will be higher. Through the six-element series connection, a 3V direct current potential difference is created from a very low intensity measured in microamperes.

The novelty is based on the fact that with the use of particular physical electrode structures produced from different materials and the addition of a capacitor, an alternate pulse generator and a doubler or multiplier of useful voltage are achieved. , of higher power.

[005] The electrodes may be made of wire, ties or plates with a diameter or thickness of 3 mm. Other smaller or larger sizes can also be chosen depending on their scope. In order to be effective, the electrodes must be coiled from both the wire mesh of said electrode material and the zigzag plaque (Figure 2 a, b, c). Such an electrode structure accentuates the power of the generator a few times.

The distance between the cathode and anode can be chosen between 1 and 5 mm by placing the plastic dividers between them or another insulator.

The electrodes, which can be made of spiral wire, wire mesh or zigzag corrugated plate, can be concentric even in several layers (the cathode inside the anode or vice versa): [008] Figure 3a - concentric spiral electrodes in several layers.

[009] Figure 3b - Electrodes produced from denticulated plaque or multi-layered roller wire mesh.

[010] Figure 3c - Denture plate or wire mesh electrodes in concentric circles in several layers.

[011] Even element shells can be one of the electrodes, both anode and cathode.

[012] Elements can be as many as desired, connected in series or in parallel, depending on the energy you want.

[013] To be useful, this energy must be amplified both in intensity and in voltage. Thus, an electronic assembly has been added that solves this problem, so that from a generator with six elements formed of 10 cm long and 2 cm diameter tubes can illuminate six LEDs with a handmade prototype.

Of course, in a factory production, the output can be much better compared to a handmade prototype.

[015] The electronic circuit consists of an electrolytic capacitor connected to the generator terminals, an alternate pulse generator and a voltage doubler or multiplier.

[016] The role of the capacitor is to accentuate the intensity of the currents between the pulses. The reciprocating pulse generator has a stimulating effect on the power output in the generator, also enhancing its intensity. The stress doubler (or multiplier) has the function of stress enhancing. Such a combination increases the power of the generator a few times.

[017] In this process water electrolysis also occurs concurrently, with gas bubbles appearing in both electrodes. As is well known, oxygen discharges into the anode, in this case, the aluminum electrode and hydrogen in the cathode, in this case, the copper electrode.

[018] For a larger generator, electrodes in the form of denticulated plate or wire mesh can be used (Figure 4). The gases produced can be collected using collectors (side view of Figure 5) and used to produce thermal energy or in industry, agriculture, medicine etc.

[019] Water consumption is low. It requires no water change, just the addition. The approximate amount of water to be added is 10% per month, which should be used to its maximum capacity.

[020] It is possible that within a few years, the anode (the aluminum electrode) may deteriorate, thus requiring replacement. It depends on the water and the electrode composition. This is only for cases where the generator is used permanently at full capacity. If it is not used permanently or if it is not used at full capacity, the anode electrodes may last longer. In the intervals between the generator use ranges, it does not deteriorate, having the ability to resume its use even after tens or even hundreds of years.

[021] For example, a normal used flashlight can rarely last smoothly for tens or even hundreds of years.

Potential deposits in the cathode are insignificant and do not interfere with the process provided that the water is for human consumption.

[023] Electrodes may be produced from other materials that have a higher electronegativity difference between the cathode and anode. They can also be made from alloys, treated metals or metal galvanizing, semiconductors, thereby extending the electrodes while enhancing the generator power.

[024] Certain substances are added to water to extend the life of electrodes and / or substances as "antifreeze" solutions, so that the generator can also operate below 0 degrees Celsius.

[025] It can be used in any industry, agriculture, medicine, household appliances, etc.

[026] It can charge accumulators that will generate more power over shorter periods of time.

Unlike other sources of energy, this one has the following advantages: [028] 1. It does not depend on the sun, the time of day or night.

[029] 2. Does not depend on wind.

[030] 3. Does not pollute the atmosphere.

[031] 4. Produces a constant amount of electric power generator using potable water, releasing oxygen and hydrogen.

[032] 5. Can be charged without being disassembled compared to solar power installations or wind power stations.

[033] 6. Once manufactured, it can be easily and conveniently placed and it produces power immediately.

[034] 7. Does not deteriorate over a period of inactivity, unlike accumulators.

[035] 8. May be buried underground (even in a water tank) that does not occupy much space and does not shade the ground like a solar panel. Thus, the temperature of more than 0 degrees Celsius is guaranteed even in winter without the addition of water.

[036] 9. Contains no acids or salts; consequently, it is not dangerous. It can also be used in agriculture without problems.

[037] 10. Can be used even in apartments, which can not be done with solar power plants wind power stations. A volume of one cubic meter installed in cabinet, corridor etc. may be enough.

[038] 11. Depending on the generator volume and needs, it can guarantee the required power itself.

[039] 12. Can be used to compensate for temporary power outages when other generators are not sufficient (solar, wind, etc.).

[040] 13. Other sources may be supplemented permanently when more power is required, with a safe, reliable source that does not lead to unpredictable difficulties.

[041] 14. It is not costly given the fact that only once in several years (and after prolonged use) will only be required to change the anode electrodes.

[042] 15. Can be used only in areas where no electrical grid can be deployed, nor exploit solar or wind energy.

[043] 16. It is useful in difficulties in accessing areas where constant energy is required for more years and frequent change of accumulators is difficult, such as underground, underwater and even in the cosmos.
