The positive electrode current collector 17 is fitted with a positive electrode terminal 18 made of stainless steel or the like that protrudes outward on the first end 11 side, and a separate trapezoidal cross section made of a separate body is provided below the positive electrode terminal 18. The support part 19 is arranged. A separator 20 made of water-absorbing kraft paper is disposed on the inner surface of the negative electrode inner cylinder 15.
水電池１０の第１端部１１は、封止栓２１で形成されており、封止栓２１には、水電池１０内部に水を注入するための一対の注水口２２ａ，２２ｂが形成されている。封止栓２１は、プラスチック、ガラス、セラミックスなどの各種の絶縁材料から作られており、負極内筒体１５と正極集電体１７との導通を遮断している。また、第２端部１２には、外筒体１４の底面を外方へ突出させてなる負極端子２３が形成されている。なお、注水口２２ａ，２２ｂは、一対ではなく複数形成されていてもよく、電気反応によって内部に充満した気体を外部へ放出する排気口としての役割を兼ねている。
The first end portion 11 of the water battery 10 is formed by a sealing plug 21, and a pair of water inlets 22 a and 22 b for injecting water into the water battery 10 is formed in the sealing plug 21. Yes.

A water storage part 30 for storing the injected water is provided on the periphery of the support part 19, and a water retaining material 25 is inserted below the water storage part 30. The water-retaining material 25 is formed from a heat-compressed sheet-like sponge and absorbs and holds the water injected from the water injection ports 22a and 22b, thereby expanding into the space of the water storage unit 30 and the powder filler 16 being Preventing leakage to the outside.
負極内筒体１５は、イオン化および／または酸化傾向が比較的に大きな電極活物質、例えば、金属マグネシウム、亜鉛などまたはそれらを少なくとも２種以上含む合金から作られており、その外周面が、外筒体１４の内周面に当接し、接着又は溶着されている。外筒体１４の第１端部１１側の端縁部１４ａは、内方へ延びて、負極内筒体１５の端縁部上に位置している。
The negative electrode inner cylinder 15 is made of an electrode active material having a relatively large tendency to ionize and / or oxidize, such as metal magnesium, zinc, or an alloy containing at least two of them, and the outer peripheral surface thereof is an outer surface. It abuts on and adheres to or welds to the inner peripheral surface of the cylindrical body 14. The end edge portion 14 a on the first end portion 11 side of the outer cylindrical body 14 extends inward and is located on the end edge portion of the negative electrode inner cylindrical body 15.
粉末充填材１６は、比較的に酸化力が強い導電体（正極活物質）、例えば、活性炭、二酸化マンガン、酸化鉄、結晶性の酸化銀などの混合物から作られている。これらの物質は減極機能をも有する。混合物の種類や混合比率は、所要の酸化力に応じて自由に設定することができる。
The powder filler 16 is made of a conductive material (positive electrode active material) having a relatively strong oxidizing power, for example, a mixture of activated carbon, manganese dioxide, iron oxide, crystalline silver oxide, and the like. These materials also have a depolarizing function. The kind and mixing ratio of the mixture can be freely set according to the required oxidizing power.
正極集電体１７は、例えば、比較的に導電性が強い、電気化学的に比較的に安定な、炭素棒、エボナイト棒から形成されている。

負極内筒体１５の内部には、パラフィンから形成された、その内径とほぼ同じの大きさを有する円形状の分離壁２６が設けられている。
A circular separation wall 26 made of paraffin and having a size approximately the same as its inner diameter is provided inside the negative electrode inner cylinder 15.
分離壁２６によって、負極内筒体１５の内部は、第１端部１１側に位置する、粉末充填材１６が収容、保持されている収容部２７と、第２端部１２側に位置する、粉末充填材１６が充填されていないスペース部２８とに分離されている。
Due to the separation wall 26, the inside of the negative electrode inner cylinder 15 is positioned on the first end 11 side, and is positioned on the first end 11 side, on which the powder filler 16 is stored and held, and on the second end 12 side It is separated into a space portion 28 that is not filled with the powder filler 16.
このように構成された水電池１０では、スポイトなどによって注水口２２ａ，２２ｂから水（通常の水道水、海水を含む）を注入すると、注入された水が保水材２５に迅速に吸収、保持されて、粉末充填材１６に浸透して拡散する。拡散された水は、酸化反応触媒としての役割を果たし、負極内筒体１５の内周面が酸化して、イオンを発生させ、かつ、負極内筒体１５と正極集電体１７との間に電導域を生じさせることで起電力を発生させる。また、分離壁２６によって、粉末充填材１６は収容部２７に集中、保持されているので、注入された水をより迅速に拡散させることができ、発電効率が良い。
In the water battery 10 configured as described above, when water (including normal tap water and seawater) is injected from the water inlets 22a and 22b with a dropper or the like, the injected water is quickly absorbed and held in the water retaining material 25. Then, it penetrates and diffuses into the powder filler 16. The diffused water serves as an oxidation reaction catalyst, the inner peripheral surface of the negative electrode inner cylinder 15 is oxidized to generate ions, and between the negative electrode inner cylinder 15 and the positive electrode current collector 17. An electromotive force is generated by generating a conductive region in Moreover, since the powder filler 16 is concentrated and held in the accommodating portion 27 by the separation wall 26, the injected water can be diffused more quickly, and the power generation efficiency is good.
図３は、発電して、一定時間経過した後の水電池１０内部の様子を示す、図２と同様な縦断面図である。
FIG. 3 is a vertical cross-sectional view similar to FIG.
水電池１０を比較的に長時間使用して、発電してから一定時間経過した場合には、発電時の電気反応によって、粉末充填材１６が気化を起こし、それによって収容されている収容部２７の内圧が上昇し、その内部の空気は比較的に高圧となる。
When the water battery 10 has been used for a relatively long time and a certain time has elapsed since the power generation, the powder filler 16 is vaporized by the electric reaction during the power generation, and the storage portion 27 stored thereby. The internal pressure of the air rises, and the air inside the air becomes relatively high.
このとき、負極内筒体１５の内部において、収容部２７の内圧に押されて、セパレータ２０の底面が破れるとともに、分離壁２６が第２端部側１２に押されて若しくは崩れて、粉末充填材１６がスペース部２８に流れ込む。これと同時に、収容部２７内の比較的に高圧の空気が比較的に低圧の空気が充填されたスペース部２８内に流れ込むので、負極内筒体１５内部の空気は、中圧となり、負極内筒体１５の外周壁がその内圧によって、破れるおそれはない。
At this time, inside the negative electrode inner cylinder 15, it is pushed by the internal pressure of the accommodating portion 27, the bottom surface of the separator 20 is broken, and the separation wall 26 is pushed or collapsed by the second end side 12, so that the powder filling The material 16 flows into the space portion 28. At the same time, since the relatively high pressure air in the accommodating portion 27 flows into the space portion 28 filled with the relatively low pressure air, the air inside the negative electrode inner cylinder 15 becomes an intermediate pressure, There is no possibility that the outer peripheral wall of the cylindrical body 15 is broken by the internal pressure.
また、水電池１０をさらに長時間使用して、収容部２７とスペース部２８とを合わせた負極内筒体１５の内部全体の空気が比較的に高圧になり、負極内筒体１５の外周面の一部にひび割れが生じたり、破れたりした場合であっても、負極内筒体１５は、ステンレス等から形成された外筒体１４によって被覆されているので、負極内筒体１５内に充填された粉末充填材１６が水電池１０の外部に漏れ出て、漏電を生じるおそれはない。
In addition, when the water battery 10 is used for a longer time, the air inside the negative electrode inner cylinder 15 including the housing portion 27 and the space portion 28 becomes relatively high in pressure, and the outer peripheral surface of the negative electrode inner cylinder 15 Even if a part of the electrode is cracked or torn, the negative electrode inner cylinder 15 is covered with the outer cylinder 14 formed of stainless steel or the like, so that the negative electrode inner cylinder 15 is filled. There is no possibility that the powder filling material 16 is leaked to the outside of the water battery 10 to cause electric leakage.
