Description

Air auxiliary treatment device and vehicle-mounted air treatment system

Technical Field

The utility model relates to an air auxiliary processing device and on-vehicle air treatment system, in particular to air auxiliary processing device and on-vehicle air treatment system that can reduce the infectious capacities of the Pathogen (Pathogen) that is harmful to the human body in the interior space of car.

Background

In the face of increasingly deteriorated air quality, more and more drivers add air purification devices to the vehicle to improve the air quality in the passenger space of the vehicle. Particularly when the vehicle is a new one, there is often some bad smell, even some pungent smell, in the vehicle, which usually comes from volatile substances existing in the passenger space, such as plastics, rubber, fabrics, paint, coating and adhesive used in the interior of the vehicle. In the case of temperature change or material aging, organic solvents and additives of these materials are gradually released into the passenger space of the vehicle, which not only makes the driver feel uncomfortable due to poor quality of air in the vehicle, but also these volatile substances are more likely to form gases harmful to the human body in the vehicle interior.

Although the air cleaning apparatus described above can improve air quality, if the air cleaning apparatus is in the form of an electrode and a driver sets the air cleaning apparatus at an outlet of an air conditioning duct, when a vehicle is refueled at a gas station, an arc generated when the electrode in the air cleaning apparatus is operated may cause a spark to cause explosion. In addition, for pathogens which may affect human health in the air, the existing air purification devices in the vehicles on the market cannot eliminate the pathogens, so that the driver cannot feel at ease, and the driver and the pathogens are likely to stay in the same closed space under the unknown condition, thereby increasing the risk of infection. In other words, according to the conventional technology for air treatment in the vehicle passenger space, it is impossible to effectively eliminate viruses while preventing sparks from being generated due to the operation of the electrodes.

In addition, although all vehicles are provided with an air conditioner to adjust the temperature inside the vehicle, in the case where the temperature is getting higher due to the greenhouse effect, more electric power is consumed to maintain the temperature of the passenger space of the vehicle at a proper temperature. Therefore, how to maintain the environment in the vehicle in a comfortable and sanitary state without consuming extra energy is also an important issue.

Detailed Description

The detailed features and advantages of the present invention are described in detail in the following embodiments, which are sufficient for those skilled in the art to understand the technical contents of the present invention and to implement the present invention, and the related objects and advantages of the present invention can be easily understood by those skilled in the art from the contents, the protection scope and the attached drawings disclosed in the present specification. The following examples further illustrate the aspects of the present invention in detail, but are not intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way.

Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a block diagram of an air auxiliary processing device according to an embodiment of the present invention. The air auxiliary treatment device of the present invention comprises a total heat exchanger 10 and a hydrogen remover 20, wherein the hydrogen remover 20 is preferably disposed between an air conditioner AC and an air filter of a vehicle, and the hydrogen remover 20 can also be disposed between the total heat exchanger 10 and the air conditioner AC. The air auxiliary processing device is preferably arranged in an air conditioning airflow path of the vehicle and at least communicated with the riding space of the vehicle through an air filter screen of the vehicle. The air conditioning airflow path refers to an airflow path from the outside of the vehicle to the passenger space via an air conditioner AC.

It should be noted that, compared to the auxiliary air treatment device shown in fig. 1, the vehicle-mounted air treatment system shown in fig. 5 further includes an air conditioning device AC in addition to the auxiliary air treatment device shown in fig. 1, and the vehicle-mounted air treatment system will be described in the following embodiment of fig. 5.

In detail, the total heat exchanger 10 is used for receiving an input airflow flowing from the outdoor space and an output airflow from the passenger space inside the vehicle, wherein the input airflow and the output airflow both flow into the total heat exchanger 10 and exchange heat in the total heat exchanger 10.

Taking the air auxiliary processing device shown in fig. 1 as an example, the input airflow after heat exchange with the output airflow further flows to the hydrogen remover 20, and the output airflow after heat exchange is discharged to the outdoor space. In detail, when the outdoor space has a high air temperature and the passenger space in the vehicle interior has a low air temperature, the temperature of the input airflow flowing into the passenger space of the vehicle is lowered and the temperature of the output airflow discharged to the outdoor space is raised after the heat exchange in the total heat exchanger 10, so that energy for further lowering the input airflow to the air temperature of the passenger space can be saved. Similarly, when the air temperature in the passenger space is set to be higher than the air temperature in the outdoor space, the energy for raising the input airflow further to the air temperature in the passenger space can be reduced. The partial operation and structure of the total heat exchanger 10 of the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to fig. 2 and 3.

The hydrogen remover 20 comprises an electrode set for passing the heat-exchanged input air flow and a voltage converting circuit for controlling a voltage difference of the electrode set to remove water molecules (H) in the flowing input air flow₂O) to release a hydroxyl ion (OH)^-)。

Since the electrode assembly of the hydrogen remover 20 is disposed at the air suction opening of the air conditioner AC, the air conditioner AC can heat or cool the input airflow containing hydroxyl ions and send the heated or cooled input airflow to the passenger space inside the vehicle, so that the hydroxyl ions in the input airflow can combine with the hydrogen ions in the air (H)⁺). If the electrode set of the hydrogen remover 20 is disposed at the air outlet of the air conditioner AC, the hydrogen remover 20 dissociates water molecules in the input airflow after the air conditioner AC is processed.

Since pathogens (pathogens) such as bacteria and viruses in the air have hydrogen ions, and the hydrogen ions are one of the essential elements for maintaining the infectious ability of pathogens, the hydroxide ions generated by the water molecules dissociated by the hydrogen remover 20 can induce the hydrogen ions to dissociate from the pathogens or toxic/odorous gases, and then combine with the hydroxide ions to form harmless and nontoxic water molecules. The hydroxyl ions dissociated from the electrode set of the hydrogen scavenger 20 are preferably coated with a plurality of water molecules to more effectively attract hydrogen ions from pathogens or toxic/odorous gases. Therefore, the infection capacity of pathogens such as bacteria and viruses in the inner space of the vehicle can be effectively reduced, and the concentration of toxic/peculiar smell gas can be reduced. In addition, the hydrogen remover 20 of the present invention reduces the infectious capacity of pathogens in the vehicle interior in a safer manner than existing anion air cleaners that may produce ozone.

The whole function of the present invention lies in that, by communicating the total heat exchanger 10 and the hydrogen remover 20 to the air conditioner AC, not only the infection ability of the pathogen in the air flow flowing from the air conditioner AC to the vehicle interior space and the concentration of the toxic/odor gas can be reduced, but also the toxic/odor gas and the concentration of carbon dioxide in the vehicle interior space can be effectively reduced, and the energy consumption when the air conditioner AC operates can be effectively reduced.

In addition, since the hydrogen remover 20 is installed in front of the air screen/damper of the vehicle (i.e., on the side different from the vehicle's passenger space), it is possible to prevent the vehicle from exploding due to sparks caused by the arc generated when the electrodes are operated when the vehicle is refueled at a gas station.

It should be noted that the air auxiliary processing device of the present invention may also only include the hydrogen remover 20, and the hydrogen remover 20 may be disposed in front of the air conditioner AC, that is, the hydrogen remover 20 may be disposed at the air suction port of the air conditioner AC, so that the input air flowing from the outdoor space may first pass through the hydrogen remover 20, then flow into the air conditioner AC from the air suction port of the air conditioner AC, and flow into the passenger space of the vehicle through the damper of the vehicle. In this embodiment, the input airflow preferably passes through an air filter before passing through the hydrogen remover 20, so as to first filter the impurities in the air, thereby preventing the impurities from affecting the normal operation of the hydrogen remover 20. Alternatively, the hydrogen remover 20 may be disposed after the air conditioner AC, so that the input air flow from the outdoor space may first pass through the air conditioner AC and flow out through a filter of an outlet of the air conditioner AC, and then pass through the position of the hydrogen remover 20, and finally flow into the passenger space of the vehicle through a damper of the vehicle.

Further, since the hydrogen remover 20 is installed in front of the air brake of the vehicle (i.e., on the side different from the vehicle's passenger space), the hydrogen remover 20 and the passenger space of the vehicle can be separated by the air brake, as described above, so as to prevent the vehicle from exploding due to sparks caused by electric arcs generated during the operation of the electrodes when the vehicle is refueled at a gas station.

Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a schematic diagram illustrating an operation of a total heat exchanger according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The total heat exchanger 10 has a first inlet I1, a second inlet I2, a first outlet O1 and a second outlet O2.

The first air inlet I1 is used for receiving the input air flow IA from the outdoor; the second air inlet I2 is for receiving an output airflow OA from the vehicle interior (i.e., an airflow to be discharged from the passenger space inside the vehicle to the outside). After the input air flow IA and the output air flow OA exchange heat in the total heat exchanger 10, the input air flow IA' after heat exchange flows to the hydrogen remover 20 from the first outlet O1 of the total heat exchanger 10; the heat-exchanged output airflow OA' flows to the outside from the second outlet O2 of the total heat exchanger 10. Furthermore, by finally sending the input airflow IA 'to the interior space of the vehicle and discharging the output airflow OA' to the outdoor environment, the power consumption of the air conditioner AC can be reduced more effectively while maintaining the ventilation of the air inside and outside the vehicle to avoid the accumulation of toxic gases or odors in the interior space of the vehicle, wherein the implementation of reducing the power consumption of the air conditioner AC will be described below in conjunction with fig. 3.

To explain the operation of the total heat exchanger 10 in more detail, please continue to refer to fig. 2 and further refer to fig. 3, wherein fig. 3 is a structural diagram of the total heat exchanger according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Specifically, the input airflow IA flows into the air inlet passage TI of the total heat exchanger 10; the output airflow OA flows into the outlet flow channel TO of the total heat exchanger 10, and the inlet flow channel TI and the outlet flow channel TO are disposed adjacent TO each other and isolated from each other by the heat exchange material P, so that the input airflow IA passing through the inlet flow channel TI and the output airflow OA passing through the outlet flow channel TO exchange heat. In other words, the air flows flowing through the inlet flow passage TI and the outlet flow passage TO do not directly contact with each other, and the input air flow IA and the output air flow OA can still exchange heat without directly contacting each other by the heat exchange material P isolating the inlet flow passage TI and the outlet flow passage TO, and the output air flow OA' after heat exchange can flow TO the outside; the heat exchanged input air flow IA' may then flow to the hydrogen scavenger 20 as shown in fig. 2 and further to the air conditioning unit AC as shown in fig. 1. In the present embodiment, the air inlet duct TI forms a part of an air conditioning airflow path of the vehicle.

It should be noted that, the number of the air inlet flow passage TI and the air outlet flow passage TO of the total heat exchanger 10 shown in fig. 3 is preferably multiple, however, the number and the shape structure of the air inlet flow passage TI and the air outlet flow passage TO shown in the present invention are only examples, and the present invention does not limit the number, the shape and the structure of the air inlet flow passage TI and the air outlet flow passage TO inside the total heat exchanger 10.

By providing the total heat exchanger 10 as shown in fig. 2 and 3, when the air flow flowing into the vehicle from the air conditioner AC is used to lower the temperature of the vehicle interior (for example, during summer), the temperature of the input air flow IA from the outdoor is higher than that of the output air flow OA, so that the input air flow IA enters the total heat exchanger 10 to exchange heat with the output air flow OA flowing out from the vehicle interior space before the input air flow IA enters the air conditioner AC to be cooled. Accordingly, the temperature of the input airflow IA 'after heat exchange is lower than the input airflow IA that starts to flow into the total heat exchanger 10, and the air conditioner AC can lower the temperature of the input airflow IA' to reduce the energy consumed by the air conditioner AC when operating, compared with directly lowering the temperature of the input airflow IA from the outside.

For example, the outdoor temperature is about 35 ℃, the temperature set inside the vehicle is 25 ℃, and when the input airflow IA from the outdoor flows into the total heat exchanger 10 for heat exchange, the temperature of the input airflow IA 'after heat exchange is 27 ℃, for example, the air conditioner AC only needs to reduce the temperature of the input airflow IA' at 27 ℃ to 25 ℃, and does not need to reduce the original input airflow IA at 35 ℃ to 25 ℃, so that the energy consumption of the air conditioner AC can be effectively reduced. Moreover, even if the vehicle is parked in hot outdoor, the temperature inside the vehicle can be maintained at about the same temperature as that of the outdoor space by the total heat exchanger 10, so as to prevent the temperature inside the vehicle from rising to a temperature harmful to human safety due to burning sun exposure.

Similarly, when the airflow flowing into the vehicle interior from the air conditioner AC is used to raise the temperature of the vehicle interior (for example, during winter), the input airflow IA from the outside is first introduced into the total heat exchanger 10 to exchange heat with the output airflow OA flowing out from the vehicle interior space before the input airflow IA is introduced into the air conditioner AC to be warmed up, because the temperature of the input airflow IA is lower than that of the output airflow OA. Accordingly, the temperature of the input airflow IA 'after heat exchange is higher than the input airflow IA that starts to flow into the total heat exchanger 10, and the air conditioner AC can heat the input airflow IA' with higher temperature to reduce the energy consumed by the air conditioner AC during operation, compared with directly heating the input airflow IA.

Please refer to fig. 4A and fig. 4B together, wherein fig. 4A is a schematic diagram illustrating an arrangement of a hydrogen remover according to an embodiment of the present invention; figure 4B is a side view of the arrangement of the hydrogen scavenger of figure 4A.

After the input airflow IA 'after heat exchange or after being processed by the air conditioner AC flows to the hydrogen remover 20, the electrode set 200 of the hydrogen remover 20 can dissociate the hydrogen ions of pathogens and toxic gases, etc. existing in the input airflow IA' to combine with the hydroxide ions into water molecules by dissociating the water molecules, thereby reducing the infection capability of the pathogens, eliminating the peculiar smell in the vehicle interior space, and reducing the toxicity of volatile gases generated by organic solvents and additives, etc.

The hydrogen remover 20 shown in fig. 4A comprises an electrode set 200, a power supply block 206 and a voltage conversion circuit 208, wherein the electrode set 200 is used for passing the input airflow IA 'after heat exchange, and the electrode set 200 is aligned with the air inlet flow passage TI of the total heat exchanger 10 shown in fig. 3, for example, to receive the input airflow IA'. As shown in fig. 4A and 4B, the electrode assembly 200 includes an ion discharge tube 202, a conductive plate 203, and a pair of electrodes 204. It should be noted that the hydrogen remover 20 shown in fig. 4A and 4B is disposed in front of the air screen FT at the suction port of the air conditioner AC, so that when the vehicle is being refueled at a gas station, the risk of explosion due to sparks caused by electric arcs when the electrode set 200 of the hydrogen remover 20 is in operation can be avoided.

In detail, the ion releasing tube 202 is preferably formed of a porous fibrous material having water absorbing and retaining capabilities, such as a felt material of polyester, etc., to absorb water molecules in the air and dissociate the water molecules to release hydroxide ions. The counter electrode 204 is preferably made of a conductive material, and the shape of the counter electrode 204 may be a flat plate as shown in fig. 4A, but the shape of the counter electrode 204 may be a ring shape, a ball shape, or the like, and the present invention is not limited to the shape of the counter electrode 204.

In addition, as shown in fig. 4B, a flow gap G is preferably formed between the front end of the ion releasing tube 202 and the counter electrode 204, and the flow gap G is preferably located in the air inlet channel TI of the total heat exchanger 10, so that the input airflow IA 'after heat exchange from the air inlet channel TI can smoothly pass through the electrode set 200 to dissociate water molecules in the input airflow IA'. The width of the flow gap G shown in fig. 4A and 4B is preferably 1 cm to 1.5 cm, however, the present invention does not limit the width of the flow gap G between the ion releasing tube 202 and the counter electrode 204.

The power supply block 206 of the hydrogen remover 20 is electrically connected to the ion releasing tube 202 and the counter electrode 204, the power supply block 206 has two leads respectively connected to the conductive plate 203 and the counter electrode 204, wherein the lead of the power supply block 206 connected to the conductive plate 203 is used for providing a negative high voltage to the conductive plate 203, and the lead of the power supply block 206 connected to the counter electrode 204 is a ground terminal, so that the electrode set 200 generates a voltage difference, and therefore the power supply block 206 can trigger the ion releasing tube 202 through the conductive plate 203 to release hydroxyl ions, and the voltage difference is a difference between the ground terminal and the negative high voltage. The power supply block 206 can send negative high voltage to the ion releasing tube 202 through the conductive plate 203, but the power supply block 206 can also be directly electrically connected to the ion releasing tube 202 (i.e. the conductive plate 203 can be omitted), so as to generate a high voltage between the ion releasing tube 202 and the counter electrode 204, and further dissociate the water molecules in the air to release hydroxyl ions with high oxidation to the air, thereby reducing the activity/infection capability of pathogens, etc., and reducing the concentration of harmful gases in the air inside the vehicle.

In other words, the voltage converting circuit 208 of the hydrogen remover 20 is electrically connected to the power supply block 206, and the voltage converting circuit 208 can be electrically connected to power sources such as a vehicle-mounted power source, a solar panel, etc., so that the voltage converting circuit 208 can convert the received power into a voltage of 9V to 36V, and transmit the converted voltage of, for example, 9V to the power supply block 206, the power supply block 206 can further convert the received voltage of 9V into a negative high voltage of-6 kV to-7 kV and transmit the negative high voltage to the conductive plate 203, and the voltage converting circuit 208 performs voltage conversion on the received power, thereby controlling the discharging condition of the power supply block 206 to control the electrode set 200 to dissociate water molecules in the air and release hydroxyl ions.

In addition, a large amount of static electricity may be generated during the process of firing the ion discharge tube 202 to discharge hydroxide ions, and the generated static electricity may affect the amount of hydroxide ions discharged from the ion discharge tube 202. Therefore, by connecting the counter electrode 204 of the electrode set 200 to the ground voltage, the static electricity generated when the ion discharge tube 202 is fired can be absorbed, so as to prevent the amount of hydroxyl ions discharged from the ion discharge tube 202 from being affected by the static electricity.

It should be noted that the number of the ion releasing tubes 202 shown in fig. 4A is three, and the three ion releasing tubes 202 are preferably arranged side by side with each other, but the number of the hydrogen eliminators 20 and the ion releasing tubes 202 can be adjusted according to the size of the interior space of the vehicle. For example, when the vehicle interior space is about 10 cubic meters (e.g., a typical car), one to two sets of the hydrogen eliminators 20 are preferably provided, and the hydrogen eliminators 20 preferably have 1 to 3 ion release tubes 202; when the interior space of the vehicle is about 150 cubic meters (e.g., a medium bus), 1 to 4 sets of the hydrogen eliminators 20 are preferably provided, and the hydrogen eliminators 20 preferably have 5 ion release tubes 202; when the vehicle interior space is greater than about 150 cubic meters (e.g., a large bus), it is preferable to provide 5-6 sets of the hydrogen eliminators 20, and the hydrogen eliminators 20 preferably have 5 ion release tubes 202. It should be noted that the number of the ion releasing tubes 202 shown in the present invention is only an example, and the present invention does not limit the number of the ion releasing tubes 202.

With continued reference to fig. 4A and 4B, the electrode assembly 200 is preferably disposed in front of the air filter FT at the air suction opening of the air conditioner AC, and the hydrogen remover 20 may be disposed on a plate S as shown in fig. 4A, wherein the plate S has fixing structures on both sides for fixing in front of the air filter FT. In addition, the electrode assembly 200 is preferably disposed with an opening O at a location on the plate S, such that the input airflow IA' can flow through the electrode assembly 200, wherein two sides of the plate S can be retracted toward each other to preferably engage the air filter FT. In addition, the ends of the two sides of the laminate S can also have a saw-toothed structure to be clamped on the strip-shaped air filter screen FT, and the utility model discloses do not restrict the appearance and the setting mode of laminate S.

In order to reduce the overall installation space of the hydrogen remover 20, the counter electrode 204 of the electrode set 200 may be installed on the laminate S together with the ion discharge tube 202, and the power supply block 206 and the voltage conversion circuit 208 may be separately installed on the laminate S as shown in FIG. 4A and electrically connected to each other. In addition, the counter electrode 204 and the ion releasing tube 202 can be disposed on the laminate S, and the power supply block 206 and the voltage converting circuit 208 are disposed in the accommodating space far away from the ion releasing tube 202 (i.e., only the ion releasing tube 202 and the counter electrode 204 are disposed on the laminate S), and are electrically connected to each other, so as to prevent the hydrogen remover 20 from occupying too much space.

Referring to fig. 5, fig. 5 is a block diagram of a vehicle air handling system according to an embodiment of the present invention. The vehicle-mounted air processing system shown in fig. 5 includes an air conditioner AC having an air suction opening and an air outlet in addition to the auxiliary air processing device shown in fig. 1, wherein the air conditioner AC adjusts the temperature or humidity of the input air flow received by the air suction opening and sends the adjusted input air flow out from the air outlet.

In the air-assisted processing apparatus shown in fig. 1, the air flows in the direction from the total enthalpy heat exchanger 10 to the hydrogen remover 20, and then from the hydrogen remover 20 to the air conditioner AC; in the vehicle-mounted air processing system shown in fig. 5, the air flow is circulated from the total heat exchanger 10 to an air suction port of the air conditioner AC; and then flows from an outlet of the air conditioner AC to the hydrogen remover 20, that is, the vehicle-mounted air processing system shown in fig. 5 includes the air auxiliary processing device shown in fig. 1 and the air conditioner AC.

The suction opening of the air conditioner AC is connected to the air inlet channel TI shown in fig. 3 to receive the heat-exchanged input airflow IA'; the outlet of the air conditioner AC is aligned with the electrode assembly 200 of the hydrogen removal device 20, and preferably aligned with the flow gap G between the ion discharge tube 202 and the counter electrode 204, to deliver the input airflow IA' to the electrode assembly 200.

The implementation of the total heat exchanger 10 shown in fig. 5 is preferably as shown in fig. 2 and 3, and an air inlet channel of the total heat exchanger 10 forms a part of an air conditioning airflow path of the vehicle, the air inlet channel is communicated with an air suction opening of the air conditioning device AC for the air conditioning device AC to receive the input airflow IA'; the hydrogen remover 20 shown in fig. 5 is preferably implemented as shown in fig. 4A and 4B, wherein the electrode set of the hydrogen remover 20 is disposed between the air filter FT communicating with the passenger space of the vehicle and the air outlet of the air conditioner AC, so that the implementation of the total heat exchanger 10 and the hydrogen remover 20 in this embodiment will not be described herein again.

Referring to fig. 5 and fig. 2, when the total heat exchanger 10 sends the heat-exchanged input airflow IA 'from the first outlet O1, the input airflow IA' flows into the air conditioner AC connected thereto, and the air conditioner AC further cools the input airflow IA ', so that the air conditioner AC can send the cooled input airflow IA' to the hydrogen remover 20. In brief, the first outlet O1 of the total heat exchanger 10 shown in fig. 2 is connected to the hydrogen remover 20; the first outlet of the total heat exchanger 10 of the embodiment of fig. 5 is connected to the air conditioner AC.

Since the hydrogen remover 20 is connected to the air conditioner AC, when the input airflow IA 'cooled by the air conditioner AC flows through the hydrogen remover 20, the hydrogen remover 20 dissociates water molecules by the electrode assembly 200 to generate hydroxyl ions, as in the above-mentioned embodiment, and when the input airflow IA' containing hydroxyl ions flows into the interior space of the vehicle, the ability/activity of the air to infect pathogens such as bacteria and viruses is reduced, the odor in the interior space of the vehicle is eliminated, and the concentration of volatile gases generated by organic solvents and additives is reduced.

In order to make the present invention more easily understood, a large bus will be described as an example of the vehicle-mounted air treatment system. Referring to fig. 6A to 6C, fig. 6A to 6C are schematic diagrams illustrating an on-board air treatment system according to one or more embodiments of the present invention, and the diagrams in fig. 6A to 6C correspond to the embodiment in fig. 5, for example.

Please refer to fig. 6A and fig. 3 together. As shown in the figure, when the input airflow IA flows into the large bus from the outdoor environment, the input airflow IA passes through the total heat exchanger 10, and after the input airflow IA exchanges heat in the total heat exchanger 10 to become the input airflow IA ', the input airflow IA ' further flows through the air conditioner AC, and the output airflow OA exchanging heat with the input airflow IA in the total heat exchanger 10 becomes the output airflow OA ', and is discharged to the outdoor from the second outlet (i.e., the second outlet O2 shown in fig. 2) of the total heat exchanger 10. After the air conditioner AC outputs the input airflow IA ', the input airflow IA ' first passes through the hydrogen remover 20 and then enters the passenger space in the large bus through the air filter FT ' of the vehicle, so as to prevent the electrodes of the hydrogen remover 20 from generating sparks during operation to cause explosion, and to provide clean airflow to the passenger space.

Further, as shown in fig. 6A, the hydrogen remover 20 may be disposed at a position adjacent to the outlet of the air conditioner AC and in front of the air screen FT '(i.e., the electrode set of the hydrogen remover 20 is disposed between the outlet of the air conditioner AC and the air screen FT' of the vehicle), so that when the input airflow IA 'flows out from the outlet of the air conditioner AC, the hydrogen remover 20 can remove hydrogen ions of harmful substances and the like in the input airflow IA' in real time. In addition, the number of the hydrogen eliminators 20 may be plural, so as to more efficiently reduce the content and concentration of bacteria, viruses, toxic volatile gases, etc. in the vehicle.

Referring next to FIG. 6B, the on-board air treatment system of FIG. 6B is configured in a manner similar to that of FIG. 6A, except that the hydrogen scavenger 20 is configured. In detail, when the communication pipe connected to the air conditioner AC is provided on both sides of the bus, the hydrogen remover 20 may also be the communication pipe provided on both sides as shown in fig. 6B to directly communicate with the outlet of the air conditioner AC, and the air filter FT' is preferably used as the space between the hydrogen remover 20 and the passenger space.

Referring to fig. 6C, fig. 6C is a top view showing a large bus. As shown in the figure, when the tail end of the large bus is provided with an air duct having an air screen FT ', the hydrogen remover 20 may also be disposed in the air duct at the tail end of the large bus as shown in fig. 6C, and the hydrogen remover 20 is disposed at a position separated from the passenger space inside the vehicle by the air screen FT'.
