Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a device for reducing harmful substances in engine exhaust gas.

[0002]

Exhaust gas emitted from automobile engines contains a large amount of harmful substances such as black smoke, nitrogen oxides, hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide. Material is becoming a problem as one of the major causes of destroying the natural environment of the earth. In addition, the automobile nitrogen oxides reduction law is enforced for the purpose of suppressing the harmful substances of this exhaust gas.

As measures for reducing this harmful substance, conventionally, in addition to the development and improvement of the engine, for example, a harmful substance reducing device using far infrared rays has been proposed. This device is provided with a plurality of far-infrared ray irradiating body layers each filled with a granular far-infrared ray irradiating body and a magnet layer inside a tubular body, and a fuel tank and an engine are provided regardless of whether the engine is a gasoline engine or a diesel engine. It is used by interposing a fuel supply system that connects with.

When the fuel passes through the cylindrical body, the far infrared rays generated from the granular far infrared ray irradiator and the magnetic field of the magnet layer activate the molecules of the fuel, so that the combustion efficiency in the engine is improved. Greatly improved the black smoke in the exhaust gas,
It aims to reduce harmful substances such as nitrogen oxides, hydrocarbons, and carbon monoxide while improving fuel efficiency.

[0005]

This device has the advantage that it can be easily adopted in existing automobiles that are already in use and can comply with the regulations of the automobile nitrogen oxides reduction law. However, the conventional device has the following problems. That is, the far-infrared radiator layers made of granular far-infrared radiators and the magnet layers are alternately arranged inside the tubular body in the longitudinal direction of the tubular body. It is difficult for the fuel to flow uniformly over the entire body layer, and far infrared rays cannot sufficiently act on the fuel passing through the tubular body.

In particular, when capturing the flow of fuel in each layer of the far-infrared radiation layers, the portion corresponding to the total cross-sectional area of the tubular body serves as the fuel inlet / outlet port. Therefore, the fuel passing through each far-infrared irradiation body layer flows through a portion of the far-infrared irradiation body layer having a low resistance, and an air pocket is generated on the upper side in the far-infrared irradiation body layer. There are drawbacks. In view of such conventional problems, the present invention allows the fuel to flow evenly throughout the radiation irradiator layer,
An object of the present invention is to provide a device for reducing harmful substances in engine exhaust gas, which can suppress the occurrence of air traps in the radiation irradiating body layer as much as possible and can greatly accelerate the activation of fuel by the radiation irradiating body.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Embodiments of the present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the drawings. 1 to 8 illustrate a first embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, this harmful exhaust gas reducing apparatus has radiation irradiation zones A ₁ and A ₂ on the upstream side and the downstream side inside the cylindrical body 1, and the radiation irradiation zones A ₁ and A _{2 respectively.}
Magnetic field bands B are provided on the middle stream side of the space. Each of the radiation irradiation zones A ₁ and A ₂ is composed of a plurality of, for example, three radiation irradiation body layers 2, and the magnetic field band B is composed of a plurality of, for example, three magnet layers 3.
A space 4 is provided between the layers of the radiation irradiator layer 2 and the magnet layer 3.
Are formed respectively.

The tubular body 1 is made of a cylindrical stainless steel pipe or the like. One end side of the tubular body 1 is closed by a lid 6 having a fuel inlet 5 at the center, and the other end side is provided with an upper fuel side. It is closed by a lid 8 having an outlet 7. Each radiation irradiator layer 2 is formed by filling a large number of granular radiation irradiators 9 such as ceramic particles. Partition plates 10 are provided on both upstream and downstream sides of each radiation irradiation body 9, and vacant chambers 4 are formed on both upstream and downstream sides of the radiation irradiation body 9 via each partition plate 10. .

The radiation irradiator 9 is for generating far infrared rays and ionizing radiation, and for irradiating the far infrared rays and ionizing radiation to the fuel passing through the inside of the cylindrical main body 1. , Radioactive rare earth ore and far-infrared irradiation ore and a suitable binder as a raw material, these are crushed, kneading step, granulation step, drying step, firing step and polishing step, the spherical, other ceramics manufactured into other particles Granules are used.

The radiation irradiator 9 generates far-infrared rays and ionizing radiation to irradiate the fuel, heats the fuel by the self-heating action of the far-infrared rays, and excites the ionizing radiation and inelastically scatters the ionized fuel. Is to be decomposed by radiation. The ionizing radiation includes X-rays, α-rays, β-rays,
Although there are γ-rays and the like, the largest ionization is α-rays, and β-rays and γ-rays become smaller in this order. In addition, the dose of ionizing radiation is so small that it does not affect the human body.

As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, each partition plate 10 is a disk-shaped member made of a synthetic resin material having oil resistance and heat resistance, and penetrates in the plate thickness direction of the partition plate 10. A through hole 13 for communicating the upstream side and the downstream side of the partition plate 10 is formed, and a V-shaped peripheral groove 11 is formed on the outer periphery, and a seal ring 12 is fitted into the peripheral groove 11. There is. The partition plate 10 is fitted in the tubular body 1 via the seal ring 12. The through holes 13 may have any of the elliptical shape shown in FIG. 6A, the rectangular shape shown in FIG. 6B, the three circular shapes shown in FIG. The shape does not matter as long as the body 9 does not pass through.

The seal ring 12 is made of a synthetic resin material having oil resistance, heat resistance and appropriate elasticity, and has a circular cross section. The through hole 13 of each partition plate 10 is located on the lower side of the partition plate 10 on the upstream side of the radiation irradiation body 9,
Further, the positions of the through holes 13 are upside down in the partition plate 10 on the upstream and downstream sides of the radiation irradiation body 9 so that the partition plate 10 on the downstream side of the radiation irradiation body 9 is located on the upper side thereof.

Each magnet layer 3 is a magnet plate that also serves as a partition plate.
It is composed of 14. The magnet plate 14 is in the shape of a disk having a plate thickness equal to or slightly smaller than that of the partition plate 10. The magnet plate 14 also has a plate thickness as shown in (A) and (B) of FIG. Through holes 15 are formed so as to penetrate the magnet plate 14 in the plate thickness direction so as to connect the upstream side and the downstream side of the magnet plate 14, respectively. In addition,
The shape of the through hole 15 of the magnet plate 14 does not matter.

As shown in FIG. 8, each magnet plate 14 is magnetized so that its upstream side and downstream side have different magnetic poles.
For example, the magnet plates 14 are magnetized so that the N pole and the S pole face each other on both sides of the vacant chamber 4, and the N pole and the S pole are alternately arranged in the longitudinal direction of the cylindrical main body 1. There is. Each magnet plate 14 has a certain interval between the partition plate 10 at the downstream end of the upstream region of the tubular body 1 and the partition plate 10 at the upstream end of the downstream region with a retaining ring 16 interposed in the upstream and downstream directions. Are fitted together. Each magnet plate 14 is fitted into the cylindrical main body 1 so that the through holes 13 are alternately located on the upper and lower sides. Therefore, in each empty chamber 4 in the middle flow region, the fuel meanders up and down, and the fuel flows from the upstream side to the downstream side. It is supposed to flow.

Each of the empty chambers 4 except the empty space 4 on the downstream end side of the tubular body 1 is a space corresponding to the width of the retaining ring 16, and the empty space on the downstream end side of the tubular body 1. 4 is the irradiation body
The space is about the same as the volume of 9. When manufacturing this device, for example, the lid 6 on the fuel inlet 5 side is fixedly placed on the tubular main body 1, and each holding ring 16, the partition plate 10, the radiation plate from the other end side of the tubular main body 1. The irradiator 9 and the magnet plate 14 are sequentially inserted and fitted. Then, finally, the lid body 8 having the fuel outlet 7 is fixed to the other end side of the tubular main body 1.

When inserting each partition plate 10 and magnet plate 14,
The through holes 13 are fitted while sequentially changing their directions so that the through holes 13 are alternately located on the upper and lower sides. Therefore, as the partition plate 10 and the magnet plate 14, one type having the same shape may be prepared. Since each partition plate 10 and the magnet plate 14 are held by a pair of retaining rings 16 fitted to the tubular body 1 on both sides in the plate thickness direction, the partition plate 10 and the magnet plate in the tubular body 1 are retained. 14
It is possible to reliably prevent the falling of. Therefore, by simply inserting the retaining ring 16, the partition plate 10, the magnet plate 14, etc. from the end side of the tubular main body 1 in order, it is easy to maintain a constant gap between each partition plate 10 and the magnet plate 14. Since it can be assembled into, the workability during assembly is very good.

When using this device, the cylindrical body 1
The fuel inlet 5 is connected to the fuel tank side of the engine fuel supply system, and the fuel outlet 7 is connected to the carburetor or feed pump side. Then, the fuel is supplied from the fuel tank to the engine through this device and burned in the engine.

The fuel enters the irradiation zone A ₁ on the upstream side of the cylindrical body 1 from the fuel inlet 5, the magnetic field band B middle side from the irradiation zone A ₁ in the upstream, downstream of the irradiation zone A Go out through fuel exit 7 via ₂ . Then, the fuel is repeatedly subjected to self-heating action by far infrared rays and radiolysis by ionizing radiation in each of the radiation irradiation zones A ₁ and A ₂ , and is purified by the magnetic force of the magnetic field in the magnetic field zone B 2.

That is, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 4, the fuel first enters the first empty chamber 4 in the radiation irradiation zone A ₁ on the upstream side, and descends in the first empty chamber 4. Then, the first radiation irradiator layer is passed through the through hole 13 on the lower side of the partition plate 10.
Go into 2 And, this first radiation irradiator layer 2
The fuel that has entered the inside is irradiated with far infrared rays and ionizing radiation generated from the radiation irradiator 9, and is activated and radiolytically decomposed by the action of the far infrared rays and ionizing radiation.

Since the partition plate 10 on the downstream side of the first radiation irradiator layer 2 has a through hole 13 on the upper side thereof, the fuel in the first radiation irradiator layer 2 has an upper portion thereof. It flows out from the through hole 13 on the side to the second vacant chamber 4. Therefore,
In the first radiation irradiator layer 2, the fuel flows from the lower part on the upstream side to the upper part on the downstream side while passing through the gaps between the large number of granular radiation irradiators 9. In the second radiation irradiating body layer 2, it flows evenly and substantially evenly over the whole, and far infrared rays and ionizing radiation can be effectively irradiated from the respective radiation irradiating bodies 9 to the fuel.

Particularly, the partition plate 10 on the downstream side of the first radiation irradiator layer 2 has a through hole 13 on the upper side thereof, and the fuel passing through the first radiation irradiator layer 2 is placed above the partition plate 10. Since it flows from the side to the next second empty chamber 4, even if air bubbles such as air are mixed in the fuel, the bubbles pass through the through hole 13 of the partition plate 10 and the second empty chamber. Flows into chamber 4. Therefore, as compared with the case where the through hole 13 is provided on the lower side of the partition plate 10 on the downstream side of the first radiation irradiating body layer 2, the occurrence of air pockets in the radiation irradiating body layer 2 can be reduced.
As a result, when the fuel passes through the radiation irradiator layer 2, the whole of the many granular radiation irradiators 9 is filled with the fuel, and the whole of the radiation irradiator 9 effectively separates the fuel from the fuel. Infrared and ionizing radiation can be applied.

The fuel that has passed through the first radiation irradiator layer 2 passes through the through hole 13 on the upper side of the partition plate 10 to the second vacant chamber.
After entering 4, the partition plate 10 descends in the second empty space 4 and is located downstream of the second empty space 4.
Through the through hole 13 on the lower side of the second irradiation layer 2
It flows in from the lower side.

In the second chamber 4, the fuel once descends and then flows into the second radiation irradiator 9 through the through hole 13 on the lower side of the partition plate 10 on the downstream side. Therefore, if there are air bubbles in the fuel, a part of the air will accumulate in the upper part of the second chamber 4 as an air pool.

In the same manner, the fuel successively passes through the radiation irradiating body layers 2 and the vacant chambers 4 in the upstream region. Then, each radiation irradiation body layer 2 in the radiation irradiation zone A ₁ in this upstream region
When the fuel that has passed through 4 enters the fourth chamber 4 in the magnetic field band B in the middle flow region, the fuel descends in the fourth chamber 4 and then, as shown in FIG. The fifth vacant chamber through the lower side through hole 15 of the magnet plate 14 also serving as the partition plate on the downstream side.
4, then rises in the fifth chamber 4 and enters the sixth chamber 4 through the through hole 15 in the upper part of the magnet plate 14 on the downstream side.

That is, in this middle stream region, the respective empty chambers 4 formed between the magnet plates 14 also serving as the partition plates alternately meander vertically and flow toward the downstream side. Then, while passing through this middle flow region, the fuel is activated by the magnetic action under the influence of the magnetic fields of the magnetic poles on both sides of each magnet plate 14. In each of the empty chambers 4, in the empty chamber 4 in which the fuel flows as a downward flow, the bubbles in the fuel are sequentially removed, and the air bubbles are accumulated on the upper side thereof.

The fuel that has passed through each magnet layer 3 in the magnetic field band B in the middle flow region sequentially passes through each radiation irradiator layer 2 and the vacant chamber 4 in the radiation irradiation band A ₂ in the downstream region, and the radiation in the upstream region. As in the case of the irradiation zone A ₁ , it is irradiated with far infrared rays and ionizing radiation, and is further activated and radiolyzed.

Since ionizing radiation and far-infrared rays are generated from the radiation-irradiating body 9 when passing through each radiation-irradiating body layer 2, the ionizing radiation and far-infrared rays irradiate the fuel, The fuel can be activated by decomposing the fuel by ionizing radiation and by the far infrared rays.

For example, when the fuel is light oil, 70% of alkane (single bond saturated chain hydrocarbon), 10% of olefin (double bond unsaturated chain hydrocarbon), aromatic hydrocarbon (benzene ring) Is 20%.
The absorption wavelength of each component is 7 μ for alkane, 10 to 15 μ for olefin, and 11 to 15 for aromatic hydrocarbon.
μ.

Therefore, a far-infrared ray of about 5 to 15 μ corresponding to the absorption wavelength of each line segment of light oil is generated by the radiation irradiator 9, and the light oil is irradiated with this far-infrared ray. Then, the far-infrared rays generated from the radiation irradiator 9 are absorbed in each component of the gas oil, and the molecules constituting each component of the gas oil resonate and resonate, so that each molecule is activated and actively activated. Collide violently. Therefore, each molecule radiates the increased energy by heat, and each component of light oil is differentiated into fine molecules by its self-heating phenomenon.

However, the flash point of each component of light oil is higher in the order of alkane, olefin, and aromatic hydrocarbon. The more aromatic hydrocarbon component is, the more difficult it is to burn in the engine. The fuel efficiency of the engine becomes poor. For this reason,
Even if light oil is irradiated with far-infrared rays and molecules are differentiated by its self-heating phenomenon, as long as the content of aromatic hydrocarbons with a high flash point is still around 20% in light oil, black smoke is prevented and fuel consumption is reduced. There is naturally a limit to improving.

Therefore, the light oil is irradiated with ionizing radiation generated from the radiation irradiator 9 to generate inelastic scattering of ionization and excitation, and the light oil is decomposed by radiation. That is, this radiolysis is caused by inelastic scattering of ionization or excitation, which causes a chemical reaction due to C—C bond breakage or C—H bond breakage, and proceeds by the reaction of the resulting radicals. Along with this radiolysis, aromatic hydrocarbons (unsaturated hydrocarbons having a benzene ring) in light oil change to chain hydrocarbons with a low flash point. It is possible to improve the fuel efficiency and the black smoke by improving the combustion efficiency in the engine by decreasing the ratio of.

On the other hand, not only irradiation of ionizing radiation from the radiation irradiator 9 but also irradiation of far infrared rays simultaneously generated from the radiation irradiator 9 to light oil promotes radiolysis of aromatic hydrocarbons in the light oil. Make it easier. That is, the radiation irradiator 9 generates far infrared rays of 10 μ or more corresponding to the absorption wavelength of aromatic hydrocarbons at room temperature and irradiates light oil with the far infrared rays of 10 μm or more to remove the molecules of the aromatic hydrocarbon. When activated, the aromatic hydrocarbons generate heat and heat by a self-heating action, and make the aromatic hydrocarbons easily react with ionizing radiation. Therefore, it is possible to promote the radiolysis when the light oil is irradiated with the ionizing radiation.

When the ionizing radiation is irradiated from the radiation irradiator 9, the energy is lost due to ionization, inelastic scattering of excitation, etc., but the energy eventually becomes thermal energy. Besides decomposing into hydrocarbons,
Each molecule of light oil is further differentiated, and the combustion efficiency in the engine is further improved.

In this way, the aromatic hydrocarbons in the fuel are chain carbonized by alternately passing the empty space 4 and the radiation irradiation body 9 tank three times in the radiation irradiation zone A ₁ on the upstream side of the cylindrical main body 1. While decomposing into hydrogen, the molecules are differentiated, and the air in the fuel is removed and stored in the air pool above each vacant chamber 4. Then, the fuel that has passed through the radiation irradiation zone A ₁ on the upstream side moves up and down the vacant chambers 4 along the magnet layer 3 constituted by the magnet plates 14 of the magnetic field zone B on the middle stream side of the tubular body 1. The magnetic plate 14 is passed through the magnetic field while meandering in a zigzag shape. Therefore, the molecules of the fuel can be activated by the magnetic force of the magnetic field of the magnet layer 3, and the dirt attached to the radiation irradiator 9 can be removed by this activation.
9. The effect of the magnet plate 14 can be maintained for a long time.

Further, since the fuel passes along the magnet layers 3 constituted by the magnet plates 14 while zigzag vertically in the respective vacant chambers 4, a sufficient fuel flow path can be ensured and the tubular shape can be obtained. The main body 1 can shorten the length of the middle-flow region, in particular, to reduce the size of the main body 1, while increasing the time for the fuel to pass through each magnetic field. Further, in the downward flow chamber 4 in which the fuel flows downward, the air in the fuel can be trapped in the air reservoir.

The fuel that has passed through the magnetic field zone B passes through the chamber 4 and the radiation irradiator 9 of the downstream side radiation irradiation zone A ₂ alternately and when it passes through the upstream side radiation irradiation zone A _1. The same effect is received. Therefore, as the fuel passes through each radiation irradiator 9 between the fuel inlet 5 and the fuel outlet 7 of the tubular body 1, the self-heating effect by far infrared rays and the radiolytic decomposition by ionizing radiation occur. Receive repeatedly.

Therefore, the fuel exiting from the fuel outlet 7 of the tubular body 1 is reduced by the decomposition of aromatic hydrocarbons having a high flash point, and the molecules of the fuel are differentiated. Since the fuel of the state is supplied to the engine,
The combustion efficiency in the engine is significantly improved, and the generation of black smoke and carbon monoxide can be reduced.

The present invention is not limited to these.

For example, the radiation irradiation zone in the cylindrical body 1
The arrangement of A and the magnetic field band B is not limited to each embodiment. For example, the radiation irradiation band A may be divided into four, and the magnetic field band B may be arranged between the respective radiation irradiation bands A.

If stains can be removed, the number can be freely selected and determined.

Further, in the fourth embodiment, two devices of the third embodiment are connected in series, but two devices of the first or second embodiment may be connected in series. Alternatively, two devices according to different embodiments may be connected in series. Also 2
When connecting two devices in series, the flow velocity of fuel in the tubular body 1 will be faster for large engines that consume a lot of fuel, but two devices should be connected in parallel to reduce the flow velocity. You can

In addition, although light oil is used as an example of fuel in the embodiment, fuel other than light oil, such as gasoline, can be similarly used. This device can be adopted not only for automobile engines but also for stationary engines such as for marine engines and generators.
