연료절감을 위한 물 전기분해 장치의 전극 재료 및 전극 배열방법 {THE MATERIAL AND THE ARRANGEMENT 0f WATER ELECTROLYSIS SYSTEM FOR ENERGE SAVING}Electrode Material and Electrode Arrangement of Water Electrolysis Device for Fuel Reduction {THE MATERIAL AND THE ARRANGEMENT 0f WATER ELECTROLYSIS SYSTEM FOR ENERGE SAVING}

본 발명은 연료절감을 위한 물 전기분해 장치에 관한 것으로, 더욱 상세하게는 물을 전기분해하여 발생 되는 수소와 산소의 혼합가스(일명 브라운가스)생산하는 장치에 관한 것으로 여기에 사용되는 전극의 재료 및 표면 처리 방법, 전극의 연결방법에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a water electrolysis device for fuel reduction, and more particularly, to a device for producing a mixed gas of hydrogen and oxygen (also known as Brown gas) generated by electrolysis of water. And a surface treatment method and an electrode connection method.

일반적으로 물(H2O)은 수소와 산소의 결합체로 일정량이상의 직류전원을 공급할 때 음극에는 +1가를 갖는 수소가스가 모이게 되고, 양극에는 -2가를 갖는 산소가 모이게 되는 성질을 이용하여 물을 전기분해 함으로써 산소와 수소를 얻는다.In general, when water (H2O) is supplied with a certain amount of DC power as a combination of hydrogen and oxygen, hydrogen gas having +1 value is collected at the cathode and oxygen having -2 value at the anode is used to electrolyze water. By this, oxygen and hydrogen are obtained.

이때 일반적으로 절연체의 전해조를 이용하며, 전극으로 사용되는 것은 대부분 금속판으로, 이 판들을 일정하게 배열한 후 +와 -의 전원을 각 판에 따로 공급하여 음극에서 수소가스를 양극에서 산소가스를 각각 얻거나, 또는 분리시키지 않고 수소 산소 혼합가스(일명 브라운가스)를 얻기도 한다.At this time, the electrolytic cell of the insulator is generally used, and most of the electrodes are used as metal plates. The plates are arranged in a constant manner, and the power of + and-is supplied to each plate separately. Hydrogen-oxygen mixed gas (aka Brown gas) may be obtained without obtaining or separating.

그러나 이와 같은 공정에 의해 사용되는 전극은 판형으로 내연기관의 연료를 절감할 수 있는 만큼의 대량의 가스를 얻기 위해서는 상대적으로 크기가 큰 전해조 를 이용해야하며 이로 인하여 자동차등과 같은 내연기관에 이용하는 것은 엔진의 구조나 형식을 변경해야하는 등의 현실적으로 큰 어려움이 따르는 문제점이 발생하게 된다.However, the electrode used in such a process is plate-shaped, and in order to obtain a large amount of gas that can save fuel of the internal combustion engine, a relatively large electrolytic cell must be used. There is a problem in that there is a great difficulty, such as the need to change the structure or format of the engine.

또한 기존의 시도된 제품들은 자동차용 12V전원을 그대로 모든 전극에 연결하여 사용하다 보니 장시간사용시 열이 많이 발생하여 수증기가 발생되고 엔진에 흡입되어 연료를 더 소모하게 되는 문제점과 전극으로 사용하는 스테인레스등의 금속에서 발생하는 이물질로 인하여 전해액이 단시간 내에 더러워져 전해액을 자주 교체해 줘야하는 문제점 등이 발생하여 실용화되지 못하였다.In addition, the existing attempted products are connected to all electrodes as a 12V power source for automobiles, and as a result, a lot of heat is generated when used for a long time, which causes water vapor, inhaled by the engine, and consumes more fuel. Due to the foreign matter generated in the metal of the electrolyte was dirty in a short time, the problem of having to replace the electrolyte frequently occurred, such as was not practical.

본 발명은 연료절감을 위한 물 전기분해 장치에 관한 것으로, 더욱 상세하게는 물을 전기분해하여 발생 되는 수소와 산소의 혼합가스(일명 브라운가스)생산하는 장치에 관한 것으로 여기에 사용되는 전극의 재료 및 재료의 표면 처리방법, 전극의 연결방법에 관한 것으로 소형화하고, 열 발생을 최소화하고, 전해액이 오염되지 않게 하여 내연기관 등 실생활에 쉽게 사용할 수 있게 하는데 그 목적이 있다.  The present invention relates to a water electrolysis device for fuel reduction, and more particularly, to a device for producing a mixed gas of hydrogen and oxygen (also known as Brown gas) generated by electrolysis of water. And a method for surface treatment of materials and a method for connecting electrodes, which can be miniaturized, minimize heat generation, and prevent contamination of electrolytes so that they can be easily used in real life such as internal combustion engines.

본 발명은 물을 전기 분해함에 있어 다음의 3가지 문제를 다음의 방법들로 해결하고자 한다.The present invention is to solve the following three problems in the electrolysis of water by the following methods.

첫째, 소형화하는 문제를 해결하기 위하여 전극으로 사용되는 물질의 표면을 사포등을 이용하여 대각선으로 거칠게 표면 처리하여 줌으로서 전해액이 접촉하는 면적을 크게 함과 동시에 쉽게 산소와 수소 분자가 쉽게 전극과 분리되게 도와 줌으로서 가스의 발생량을 늘릴 수 있다.First, in order to solve the problem of miniaturization, the surface of the material used as the electrode is roughened diagonally with sandpaper to increase the contact area of the electrolyte solution and easily separate oxygen and hydrogen molecules from the electrode easily. This helps to increase the amount of gas produced.

둘째, 전기분해시 전해액이 쉽게 오염되는 현상을 해결하기 위하여, 음극과 양극에 각각 전위 값이 다른 두 금속을 전극으로 사용하고 그 중 전기분해로 인하여 소모되는 전극을 전위값이 높고 회복력이 빠른 금속을 사용하여 전해액으로 녹아드는 것을 예방하여 전해액이 오염되는 것을 막을 수 있다.Second, in order to solve the phenomenon that the electrolyte is easily contaminated during electrolysis, two metals having different potential values are used as electrodes for the cathode and the anode, and among the electrodes consumed by the electrolysis, the potential value is high and the metal recovers quickly. It is possible to prevent the electrolyte from being contaminated by preventing it from being dissolved into the electrolyte.

셋째, 전기분해시 발생되는 고열을 방지하기 위하여 전극을 일정한 간격으로 배열한 후 이를 전해액 속에 내장한 후 기존의 방식처럼 직류 전원의 양극과 음극을 교대로 직접 연결하지 아니하고, 처음과 끝의 두 전극에만 전원을 연결하고 매 전극을 하나씩 건너뛰어 전기가 통하게 연결해 줌으로서, 다시 설명하며 매 두 전극을 부도체로 연결하여 서로 전기가 통하지 않게 연결한 후 이들 매 전극 유니트간을 도체로 연결해 줌으로써 전압을 낮추는 효과를 갖게 하여 열의 발생을 최소화 시키는 것에 특징이 있다 Third, in order to prevent the high temperature generated during electrolysis, the electrodes are arranged at regular intervals and then embedded in the electrolyte, and the positive and negative electrodes of the DC power supply are not directly connected alternately as in the conventional method. This is explained again by connecting power only and skipping each electrode one by one.Then, again, connect two electrodes by non-conductor and connect each other without electricity, and then connect each electrode unit by conductor to lower the voltage. It is characterized by minimizing the generation of heat by making it effective.

본 발명은 무한한 자원인 물을 전기분해하여 수소와 산소를 얻어내어 이를 내연기관 등에 공급하여 폭발력을 증대시킴으로써 연료를 절감시킬 수 있다.The present invention can save fuel by electrolyzing water, which is an infinite resource, to obtain hydrogen and oxygen, and supplying it to an internal combustion engine to increase explosive power.

본 발명을 첨부된 도면을 참조하여 상세히 설명하면 다음과 같다.Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

도 1은 전해조내의 내부 전극 연결도로 전극 (1),(3),(5),(7)을 같은 티타늄판으로, (2),(4),(6),(8)을 스테인레스판로 배열한 후에 부도체의 막대(9)로 전극들을 가로지르게 한 후, 전극(1)과(2), (3)과(4), (5)와(6), (7)과(8)은 부도체(10)로 연결하고 전극과 (2)와(3), (4)와(5), (6)과(7)사이는 도체(11)로 연결한 후 처음 전극(1)에 양극을 마지막 전극(8)에 음극의 직류전원을 공급하면 전극(1)및 양극판의 역할을 하는 (3), (5), (7)판들에서는 산소가 발생하게 되고, 음극판(8)및 음극판의 역할을 하는 (2), (4), (6)판들에서는 수소가 발생하게 되어 전해조 상부에 혼합가스(12) 형태로 올라오게 된다. 1 shows the internal electrode connection diagram in the electrolytic cell, in which electrodes (1), (3), (5) and (7) are arranged in the same titanium plate and (2), (4), (6) and (8) in stainless steel plate. The electrodes (1) and (2), (3) and (4), (5) and (6), (7) and (8) are insulators (10) and between the electrodes (2) and (3), (4) and (5), (6) and (7) with conductors (11), and then connect the anode to the electrode (1) first. Supplying a negative DC power source to the electrode 8 generates oxygen in the (3), (5), and (7) plates, which serve as the electrode 1 and the positive electrode plate, and serve as the negative electrode plate 8 and the negative electrode plate. In the (2), (4), (6) plate is hydrogen is generated to rise in the form of a mixed gas (12) on the top of the electrolytic cell.

이러한 상태에서 가스를 물을 통과시킨 후 이를 내연기관의 공기 흡입구로 연결시키면 혼합가스(12)가 내연기관의 연소실까지 도달되어 기존 사용연료의 폭발력을 증대시켜 연료를 절감시키게 되는 것이다. In this state, when the gas is passed through water and connected to the air intake port of the internal combustion engine, the mixed gas 12 reaches the combustion chamber of the internal combustion engine, thereby increasing the explosive power of the existing fuel and saving fuel.

도 2는 전극판의 표면을 거칠게 십자형으로 처리한 모습으로 표면처리 후 30%이상의 가스발생 증가율을 보였다.Figure 2 shows that the surface of the electrode plate is roughly crosswise treated to increase the gas generation rate of more than 30% after the surface treatment.

(실시예) 2008년 3월에서 4월중 미국 버지니아 주에서 자체 시험 주행한 결과 1997년 제조된 infinti I-30는 1리터당 11.05킬로미터의 연비에서 15.305킬로미터로 향상된 연비를 확인하였으며, 2005형 현대자동차 아반테(미국명 엘란트라)에서 1리터당 16킬로미터의 연비를 확인하여 각각 30%~35% 이상의 연비가 절감됨을 확인하였다. (1갤론 당 26마일과 36마일, 37마일의 연비를 미터법으로 환산하였음)Example In 1997, the Infinti I-30 manufactured in 1997 in Virginia, USA, improved fuel efficiency to 15.305 kilometers from 11.05 kilometers per liter, and the 2005 Hyundai Motor Avante. In the US, Elantra, we confirmed the fuel efficiency of 16 kilometers per liter and found that the fuel economy was reduced by more than 30% ~ 35%. (Metric mileage of 26 miles, 36 miles, and 37 miles per gallon)
