The bottle cap 14 is locked on the outer periphery of the bottle body 12 corresponding to the bottle opening 124, and selectively closes the cross section of the bottle opening 124 communicating with the outside, so that the accommodation chamber 122 forms a closed space. The lid 14 has a positioning groove 142 (shown in fig. 3), an anti-slip pattern 144 and a steam tube port 146. The positioning groove 142 is a dome formed in the downward end surface of the bottle cap 14 and has an annular contour. The anti-slip pattern 144 is formed on the outer circumferential surface of the bottle cap 14. The steam pipe connection hole 146 is formed so as to penetrate the cap 14 from the top to the bottom. In operation, the vapor port 146 is connected via a line to the intake manifold of the engine (not shown, prior art).

The water level probe unit 30 provides an external water level alarm electrical connection (not shown, prior art), and includes a first negative probe 32, a second negative probe 34, and a common positive probe 36. The first and second

negative probes

32, 34 and the collinear positive probe 36 are fixedly extended from the top and bottom ends of the bottle cap 14, and the same ends of the first and second

negative probes

32, 34 and the collinear positive probe 36 are disposed at different depths in the water storage bottle 10 (the accommodating chamber 122) while the bottle cap 14 is locked to the bottle body 12. In practice, the first, second

negative probes

32, 34 and the collinear positive probe 36 are arranged at a depth from deep to shallow, which is the collinear positive probe 36, the second negative probe 34 and the first negative probe 32.

The air inlet pipe 50 is fixedly extended at the top and bottom ends of the bottle cap 14, and is communicated with the inside and outside of the water storage bottle 10, and while the bottle cap 14 is locked on the bottle body 12, one end of the air inlet pipe 20 is extended at the bottom of the water storage bottle 10 (the accommodating chamber 122). In practice, the air inlet tube 50 may be connected to an air filter (not shown, prior art) at the outer end of the bottle cap 14 to ensure clean ambient air.

The water replenishing pipe 60 is fixedly penetrated at the top end and the bottom end of the bottle cap 14 and selectively communicated with the inside and the outside of the water storage bottle 10; normally the water supply line 60 is closed by a plug 62.

The micro-bubble generator 70 is connected to an end of the air inlet pipe 50, is accommodated at a bottom of the water storage bottle 10 (the accommodation chamber 122), and converts the ambient air entering through the air inlet pipe 50 into micro-bubbles to be released into the accommodation chamber 122.

Referring to fig. 5 to 7, another embodiment of the air collecting tube 20' of the present invention is shown; the gas gathering pipe 20' is a hollow tubular body with a low-temperature tube profile, and the diameter pipe at the middle section of the pipe body is smaller than the pipe diameters of the two ports. In practice, one end of the air-gathering tube 20 'is inserted into the positioning groove 142 of the bottle cap 14, and the other end abuts against the bottom end of the chamber 122 of the bottle body 12, and a plurality of channels 22' are radially penetrated and communicated with the inside and the outside of the air-gathering tube 20.

The above is a description of the components and assembly of the hybrid range extender device for an internal combustion engine according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and the operation characteristics of the embodiment of the present invention are described as follows.

Referring to fig. 8 and 9, when the hybrid range extender device of the internal combustion engine of the present invention is used with an internal combustion engine (not shown), a predetermined number of liters of water 200 is first injected into the chamber 122 of the water bottle 10 through the water replenishing pipe 60.

When the internal combustion engine is operated, air is automatically sucked from the intake manifold, so that vacuum suction is formed in the steam pipe connecting hole 146 connected with the intake manifold. Whereby the vacuum suction draws air (water vapor 202) from the vapor tube port 146 at the top of the chamber 122, since the chamber 122 of the water bottle 10 is a closed space. Therefore, when the air in the chamber 122 is vacuum sucked through the steam connection hole 146 and changed, the vacuum suction force is generated due to the pressure difference, and the ambient air outside the water storage bottle 10 is automatically sucked through the air inlet pipe 50 to achieve the balance.

In the process of sucking the ambient air, one end of the air inlet pipe 50 penetrates through the air collecting pipe 20 and is submerged into the bottom of the water storage bottle 10 (in the water storage 200 of the chamber 122), so that the ambient air sucked along the air inlet pipe 50 forms micro-bubbles 301 in the water storage 200 of the water storage bottle 10 through the micro-bubble generator 70 and stirs the water storage 200 inside the air collecting pipe 20, so that the water storage 200 forms steam 202 (combustion-supporting gas) due to the stirring of the micro-bubbles 302 and accumulates at the top of the air collecting pipe 20 (the chamber 122 and the inner side of the bottle cap 14) to provide a steam pipe connecting hole 146 for vacuum suction into an air inlet manifold of the internal combustion engine, and the fuel in the internal.

As shown in fig. 10, if the gas collecting pipe 20 'is implemented with a venturi tube profile, ambient air sucked along the air inlet pipe 50 forms microbubbles 301 in the water storage 200 of the water storage bottle 10 through the microbubble generator 70, and the microbubbles 301 are limited by the profile of the gas collecting pipe 20', and rapidly flow from the bottom end of the gas collecting pipe 20 through the middle section (small pipe diameter) of the pipe body on the inner wall side of the gas collecting pipe 20 to the top end (large pipe diameter) of the gas collecting pipe 20.

In the above process, the microbubbles 301 are surrounded by the gas-liquid interface and exist, the surface tension of water at the interface acts, the surface tension acts as a force for compressing the internal gas, and the gas is dissolved in water according to henry's law, so the microbubbles 301 are pressurized when flowing through the middle section (small pipe diameter) of the tube body of the gas gathering tube 20', and are broken due to sudden pressure reduction when flowing through the middle section (small pipe diameter) of the tube body of the gas gathering tube 20 'to the large pipe diameter of the upper section of the gas gathering tube 20', and very large pressure is generated at the moment of breaking, so that the microbubbles 301 are effectively micro-pulverized, high-concentration fine bubbles 302 with smaller particle size are easily obtained, and can be more effectively dissolved in the water storage 200.

The ambient air sucked through the air inlet pipe 50 is converted into micro-bubbles 301 and micro-bubbles 302 for multiple times, and stirs the stored water 200 in the inner side of the air collecting pipe 20', so that the stored water 200 forms water vapor 202 (combustion-supporting gas) due to the stirring of the micro-bubbles 301 and the micro-bubbles 302, and is accumulated at the top of the air collecting pipe 20 (the containing chamber 122 and the inner side of the bottle cap 14), and the water vapor is provided for the vacuum suction of the vapor connecting hole 146, and enters the air inlet manifold of the internal combustion engine to mix the fuel in the.

Referring to fig. 1 and 9, since water (H2O) is formed by polymerization of hydroxyl bonds, and the water vapor 202 is a water molecule after being refined, the hydroxyl bonds are separated when the water molecule encounters high temperature, and independent hydrogen and oxygen molecules are formed, so as to achieve the combustion supporting effect (increase the content of combustion supporting gas), so that the combustion of the internal combustion engine can be more complete, and the operation efficiency of the internal combustion engine 100 is improved.

However, the excessive combustion-supporting gas cannot increase the combustion efficiency of the internal combustion engine, and to avoid this disadvantage, a gas regulating pipeline is further connected in series between the vapor pipe connection hole 146 and the intake manifold of the internal combustion engine, and includes a first three-way pipe 81, a second three-way pipe 82, first and

second shunt pipes

832, 834, a pressure regulating valve 84 and an electromagnetic pressure regulating valve 85; (ii) a Wherein, one end of the first tee pipe 81 is connected with the steam pipe connection hole 146. One end of the second three-way pipe 82 is connected with an intake manifold of the internal combustion engine. The pressure regulating valve 84 is connected in series between the first branch pipe 31 and the second branch pipe 82 in cooperation with the first branch pipe 832. The electromagnetic pressure regulating valve 85 is connected in series between the first tee pipe 81 and the second tee pipe 82 in cooperation with the second shunt pipe 834, and is triggered to selectively open and close the second shunt pipe 834 by an electrically connected controller (not shown), such as an on-board computer.

The component is composed of the components; normally, the first shunt pipe 832 supplies the intake manifold vapor 202, and when the internal combustion engine increases in operation (for example, when the automobile accelerates), the electromagnetic pressure regulating valve 85 is triggered to open the second shunt pipe 834, so as to increase the amount of the intake manifold vapor 202 supplied from the vapor pipe connection hole 146.

Referring to fig. 11, when the gas collecting tube 20 ' is implemented by using a venturi profile, the ambient air sucked from the gas inlet tube forms bubbles 303 at the bottom end of the gas collecting tube 20 ', and is pressurized when flowing through the middle section (small diameter) of the tube body of the gas collecting tube 20 ', and when flowing through the middle section (small diameter) of the tube body of the gas collecting tube 20 ' to the large diameter of the upper section of the gas collecting tube 20 ', the bubbles are broken due to a sudden pressure reduction, so that a very large pressure is generated at the moment of breaking, and the bubbles 303 are effectively crushed to obtain microbubbles 301 with small particle sizes, so that the implementation of the microbubble generator 70 can be omitted according to design.

Referring to fig. 10 and 11, depending on the internal combustion engine, the complicated split design of the above embodiment is not necessarily required between the vapor connection hole 146 and the intake manifold, and only the electromagnetic pressure regulating valve 85 is required to be connected in series.

The above description is only for the purpose of illustrating the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and is not intended to limit the scope of the embodiments of the present invention, which is defined by the claims, and equivalents and modifications known to those skilled in the art, are within the scope of the present invention.
