Description

  The present invention relates to an automobile fuel consumption improvement device and an automobile fuel consumption improvement structure. More specifically, there is no need for a control unit such as an oscillation circuit with an oscillator, a conversion circuit with a switching device, or an output circuit with an ignition coil, the structure is extremely simple, and the fuel efficiency improvement effect is also excellent. The present invention relates to an automobile fuel efficiency improvement device and an automobile fuel efficiency improvement structure.

Needless to say, the environmental destruction caused by the increasing number of automobile exhaust gases is extremely serious. Technology to improve fuel efficiency by improving the combustion efficiency of engine air-fuel mixture is one of the important areas to be studied, although it does not serve as a fundamental deterrent to the above problem.
In addition to improving the structure of the engine itself, many auxiliary devices to be incorporated later in general engines have been proposed as techniques for improving fuel consumption.

As such an auxiliary device for reducing fuel consumption, there is a “method and device for generating negative ions for automobiles” described in Patent Document 1, for example.
This method and apparatus uses a battery installed in an automobile as a power source to generate negative ions and release them toward the mixed gas and combustion exhaust gas in the engine, thereby improving the combustion efficiency of the engine and improving fuel efficiency. It can be planned.

Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2004-28070

However, the method and apparatus described in Patent Document 1 have the following problems.
That is, this device can be expected to have some fuel efficiency improvement effect, but its basic structure is based on crystal oscillators, piezoelectric oscillators, ceramic oscillators, etc. that can oscillate at an appropriate frequency in the range of 40 to 200 KHz. The oscillator is appropriately oscillated by a required high frequency by an oscillation circuit, rectified and output as a high pulse signal, and this high pulse signal is input to a conversion circuit that is turned on and off by a switching device, and is input to this on, An off-current signal is input to the primary side of the ignition coil, and input from the secondary side to an output circuit that outputs a minus high voltage DC pulse having a voltage of minus 3000 V or more and a pulse number of 40 to 200 kilopulses, In addition, minus high-voltage DC pulses are applied to the intake manifold of gasoline engines. Or a negative ion emission circuit that discharges high-density negative ions by applying electricity to the negative ion emission electrode, which is disposed in the cylinder of a diesel engine via an insulating material, with a lead cable. Has a complex structure.

(Object of the present invention)
The object of the present invention is different from that of the conventional apparatus. For example, a control unit such as an oscillation circuit having an oscillator, a conversion circuit having a switching device, or an output circuit having an ignition coil is unnecessary, and the structure is extremely high. It is an object of the present invention to provide an automobile fuel efficiency improvement device and an automobile fuel efficiency improvement structure that are simple and excellent in fuel efficiency improvement.

Means taken by the present invention to solve the above problems are as follows.
In the present invention, a conductor path constituted by a large-diameter side coil and a required number of small-diameter side coils wound in a right-handed manner and connected in series is arranged in the case. It is a fuel efficiency improving apparatus for automobiles, which is magnetically shielded, and both ends of the conductor path are connected to or become electrical connection means.

  In the present invention, the ratio of the diameters of the small diameter side coil and the large diameter side coil is more preferably set between 1: 1.2 and 1: 1.8, and is set to 1: 1.5. Most preferably.

  In the present invention, the number of turns of the small-diameter side coil is more preferably set between 13 and 16, and most preferably set at 14.5.

  In the present invention, the number of turns of the large-diameter side coil is more preferably set between 13 and 18, and most preferably set at 16.

According to the present invention, one side of the electrical connection means of any one of the above fuel efficiency improvement devices for automobiles is connected to the positive electrode of the battery of the automobile, and the other side of the electrical connection means is connected to the battery. The path of the electrical connection means connected to the negative pole and the positive pole is electrically connected to the car engine case (cylinder head, cylinder block, etc.), and the path between the engine case and the positive pole is required. An electrical resistor of resistance value is interposed, and the path leading to the negative pole is grounded to the automobile chassis,
It is a fuel economy improvement structure for automobiles.

The electric conductor path is made of a metal wire such as copper, which is a good electric conductor, but is not limited thereto.
The electrical connection means is, for example, a lead wire (lead cable) electrically connected to the metal wire in addition to the metal wire, but is not limited thereto.
Note that “electrically connected (or connected)” includes the meaning of “connected (or connected) so that current can flow”.

  If the ratio of the diameters of the small-diameter side coil and the large-diameter side coil is not set between 1: 1.2 and 1: 1.8, the effect of improving the fuel efficiency tends to be lowered and impractical. The diameter of each coil is set as appropriate and is not particularly limited.

Although the winding direction of the coil is limited to the right-hand winding, there is no problem even if the direction of the coil (the direction of the central axis of the coil) is any of the vertical, horizontal, and diagonal directions with respect to the installation surface.
Further, the number of the small diameter side coils is not particularly limited, and may be 1, 2, 3 or 4 or more. The number of small-diameter side coils can be appropriately set according to the displacement, such as increasing as the displacement of the automobile to be mounted increases.

If the number of turns of the small-diameter side coil is not set to a number between 13 and 16, there is a tendency that the effect of improving the fuel efficiency is lowered and impractical.
Similarly, if the number of turns of the large-diameter side coil is not set to a number between 13 and 18, the effect of improving the fuel efficiency tends to be lowered and impractical.

The case of an automobile engine is, for example, a cylinder head or a cylinder block, and includes a metal portion that is electrically connected to them.
The resistance value of the electrical resistor is appropriately set and is not particularly limited.

  In the fuel efficiency improvement structure for automobiles, the fuel efficiency improvement apparatus for automobiles connects the electrical connection means closer to the large-diameter side coil to the positive electrode of the battery and the electrical connection means closer to the smaller-diameter side coil to the negative pole. On the contrary, the electrical connection means near the small-diameter side coil is connected to the positive electrode of the battery, and the electrical connection means near the large-diameter side coil is connected to the negative pole. You may connect.
