Description

DETAIL OF THE INVENTION

Title of the Invention

CYLINDER FOR SEPARATING HYDROGEN

Field of the Invention Electrical engineering and physics

Background of the Invention

In an apparatus which contains an electrolytic solution made from mixing water with an electrolyte, one which generates brown gas via water electrolysis; if the solution does not conduct a sufficient electrical current, or hydrogen gas is not produced from the solution in sufficient quantities, there will not be enough hydrogen to combine with liquid fuel in the engine.

Description and Purpose of the Invention

The apparatus has been invented to separate-out the hydrogen needed to mix with liquid fuel, for use as fuel in a combustion engine. It is a hydrogen generator - a great solution to the problems of global warming, those which result from the greenhouse effect, an effect caused by carbon monoxide as generated by combustion engines, as well as the economic problems brought-about by increasing fuel prices.

In the cylinder, hydrogen is separated from the water or an electrolytic solution, through electrolysis. The apparatus consists of a hollow tube-shaped single-layer cylinder with two ears which contain and then separate the electrolytic solution, producing hydrogen and allowing a negative voltage from a DC power supply to flow through.

Other key parts of the apparatus include a lid which is attached to the cylinder, positive and negative DC power supply outputs, cell plates, magnetic bars - which function as a catalyst for separating the hydrogen from the electrolytic solution, a neutral shaft for controlling the balance of the electrical current, and a hydrogen tube. The lid allows the negative voltage from a DC power supply to pass through the apparatus.

Figure 1 shows the cylinder (1), a hollow tube-shaped single-layer stainless steel cylinder with two ears (10), which stretch out at the bottom and contain screw holes for attaching to the cylinder. The cylinder contains the electrolytic solution, which is then separated from the water to produce hydrogen, and allows negative voltage from the DC power supply to flow through. When the electrical current from the DC power supply passes through the electrolytic solution, causing it to swirl clockwise, the hollow tube shape, with no angles or joints, allows a faster hydrogen separation process.

The lid (2), a disc-shaped stainless steel object matched to the shape of the cylinder, has five holes at the top for attachment to: the negative shaft (6), the positive shaft (5), the neutral shaft (4), and the joint connected to the hydrogen tube (3). The lid, which is attached to the cylinder, allows a negative voltage to pass through it, one that then flows through the attached negative shaft to the cylinder. It then allows a positive voltage to flow through it, one that then flows through the attached stainless shaft to the cell plate set. The joint connected to the hydrogen tube (3) is made of stainless steel with a spiral- shaped internal surface, and is attached to the lid. The separated hydrogen flows through the joint to the hydrogen tube and then into the combustion engine.

The neutral shaft (4) is made of spiral-shaped stainless steel. It creates a balance between the positive and negative polarity, when the DC power supply sends out different amounts of electrical current based on changes in the speed of the car.

The positive shaft (5) is made of spiral-shaped stainless steel. It allows a positive voltage to pass through from the DC power supply and is used to attach the cell plates and magnetic bars. The negative shaft (6) is made of spiral-shaped stainless steel. It allows a negative voltage to pass through from the DC power supply and is used to attach the cell plates and magnetic bars.

The hydrogen tube (7) is made of Teflon. The hydrogen that has been separated from the electrolytic solution travels through this to the combustion engine.

The tube used for refilling the electrolytic solution (8) is made of stainless steel. The electrolytic solution is refilled through this tube when the supply reaches a specified level.

The tube used for checking the level of the electrolytic solution (9) is made of Teflon. It checks the remaining amount of the electrolytic solution. Figure 2 shows the cell plate set, which performs the function of separating the hydrogen.

It is comprised of a stainless steel positive shaft (5), the top of which is attached to the lid (2) and whose bottom is attached to two cell plates (1 1), each of which has a magnetic bar attached at its center (12). Both the magnetic bars are covered with stainless steel sheets. Cell plates (11); there is a top cell plate and a bottom cell plate, both of which are flat stainless steel plates with holes drilled in them.

Figure 3 shows the top cell plate. There are two circles on the plate: the inner circle (1 1.1) and the outer circle (1 1.2), in the space between the center and the edge of the cell plate. The radii of the two circles are different, and depend on the formation of the triangular- pyramid shape on the cell plate. The cell plate has seven holes drilled into it, which form the triangular-pyramid shape.

Hole 1 (11.3) is drilled at the center point of the cell plate and also acts as the center point of the triangular-pyramid shape. It is used to attach the shaft (5) and cell plates (11).

Hole 2 (11.4), Hole 3 (1 1.5) and Hole 4 (1 1.6) are located within the radius of the inner circle (11.1). The holes act as the vertices of the triangular-pyramid shape and are parallel with Hole 1 (11.3). The three holes act as a catalyst for separating the hydrogen from the electrolytic solution. Hole 4 (11.6) is larger than the others, so as to perform another function, that is controlling the balance of the hydrogen separation process, during which time the amount of electrical current from the DC power supply varies. Hole 5 (1 1.6), Hole 6 and Hole 7 (1 1.8) are located within the radius of the outer circle

(11.2) . They act as vertices of the triangular-pyramid shape and are parallel to the center hole

(1 1.3) . All these three holes act as a catalyst for separating the hydrogen from the electrolytic solution.

The top cell plate has seven holes of varying sizes. Three holes are within the radius of the inner circle and three are within the radius of the outer circle. The shaft is attached to the center hole. The inner circle has two holes of the same size and one larger-sized hole. These holes act as vertices of the triangle. The outer circle has three holes of the same size, all of which act as vertices of the triangle.

The bottom cell plate has two circles created in the space between the center and the edge-the inner circle (1 1.10) and the outer circle (1 1.1 1). The radiuses of the two circles are different, and depend on the formation of the triangular-pyramid shape on the cell plate. The cell plate has ten holes drilled into it, which form the triangular-pyramid shape.

Hole 1 (1 1.12) is at the center of the cell plate. It is the center point of the triangular-pyramid shape and is used to attach the shaft (5) and the cell plates (1 1) (figure 2).

Hole 2 (1 1.13), Hole 3 (1 1.14) and Hole 4 (1 1.15) are within the radius of the inner circle (1 1.10) and are the vertices of the triangular-pyramid shape and parallel to the center hole (11.12). The three holes in the inner circle function as a catalyst for separating hydrogen from the electrolytic solution. Hole 2 (1 1.13) is larger than the others, so as to perform another function; controlling the balance of the hydrogen separation process, during which time the amount of electrical current from the DC power supply varies.

Hole 5 (1 1.16), Hole 6 (1 1.17), Hole 7 (1 1.18), Hole 8 (1 1.19) Hole 9 (11.20) and Hole 10 (11.21) are located within the outer circle (1 1.1 1). They act as vertices for the triangular- pyramid shape and are parallel to the center hole (1 1.12). The six holes in the outer circle act as a catalyst for separating the hydrogen from the electrolytic solution The bottom cell plate has ten holes, including the center hole which attaches the shaft, and nine holes within the two circles. The inner circle has three holes which are placed in the same positions as the inner circle holes on the top cell plate. Six holes in the outer circle form three pairs; they are aligned with the center hole in such a way so that three triangles can be formed. Each hole within the inner circle is an equal distance from each pair of holes in the outer circle.

The cell plate device set (figure 2) is comprised of magnetic bars (12), which are covered with stainless steel sheets so as to prevent them from being eroded by the electrolytic solution, and in order to prolong their life-span. The magnetic bars (12) are attached to the cell plates (1 1), which in turn are attached to the shaft. The magnetic bars (12) create electrometric fields, while the DC power supply sends an electrical current through the electrolytic solution.

Electrical and magnetic fields (EMFs) are invisible lines of force that represent the boundary and intensity of flows that occur between objects with potential differences or voltages (a so called electrical field), and that surround an object with an electrical current flow (a so called magnetic field). In this case, the electrical and magnetic field can be defined together as an electromagnetic field or electromagnetic wave.

The separation of hydrogen has been carried out using an alternator or 12-volt battery, but not enough hydrogen can be produced through this method to be used with fossil fuels in a car engine, because not enough electrical current can be conducted. Using EMFs with electrolysis, almost twice the amount of hydrogen can be produced as with an alternator, because the EMF circuit can conduct a greater electrical current to be used for separating the hydrogen, and performs as if there is another DC power alternator in another hydrogen separating cylinder. (See figure 2 for how to attach the magnetic bars to the shaft.) Magnetic bars attached to the cylinder (12) are the source of electrical power needed to produce more hydrogen for the car engine, through the use of electromagnetic fields. Electromagnetic fields are a better solution for providing more hydrogen to the engine than simply adding more batteries. EMFs help conduct latent electrical power, adding more energy to the process, and as a result, more hydrogen can be separated for use in the engine. This method can be described as turning electrical power into mechanical energy, and the electric power produced by EMFs is a form of latent energy.

Electrolysis is the process of creating a chemical reaction by passing a DC voltage through an electrolytic solution, with the use of water, an electrolytic cell which consists of electrical polarity, a container of electrolytic solution, and DC power supply such as a battery alternator. DC voltages from the power supply pass through the electrolytic solution in the container, causing a chemical reaction in which hydrogen is separated from the electrolytic solution. Electrolysis ends with hydrogen being successfully separated.

Claims

1. The apparatus for separating hydrogen consists of:

A cylinder: a hollow tube-shaped single-layer stainless steel cylinder with two ears which stretch out at the bottom, and which functions as the container for an electrolytic solution and the receiver of negative voltages A lid: a disc-shaped stainless steel piece attached to the cylinder and designed to the same cylinder shape; it has five holes at the top for use in attaching the cylinder to the negative shaft, the positive shaft, the neutral shaft and the joint connected to the hydrogen tube. The lid, when attached to the cylinder, passes a negative voltage which flows through the attached negative shaft to the cylinder, then passes positive voltages which flow through the attached stainless shaft to the cell plate set.

The cell plate set consists of a top cell plate and a bottom cell plate. The top cell plate has seven holes drilled into it: one hole at the center for attaching the shaft, three holes within the radius of the inner circle, and three holes within the radius of the outer circle. On to the inner circle three holes of different sizes are drilled, one larger than the other two, in order to form a triangular shape; they act as the vertices of the shape. Within the outer circle, three holes of the same size are drilled to form a triangular shape, and these also act as the vertices of the shape. The bottom plate has ten holes drilled into it: one hole at the center for attaching the shaft, three holes in the inner circle, and six holes in the outer circle. The inner circle's holes are drilled to the same positions as the inner circle's holes at the top of the cell plate. The six holes in the outer circle form three pairs; each pair is aligned with the center hole to form a triangular shape - three pairs form three triangles. Each of the inner circle's holes is set at the same distance from each pair of the outer circle's holes. The cell plates are joined with their inner circle, with the larger holes opposite each other, forming a pyramid shape between them.

Two stainless-steel sheet covered magnetic bars, each attached to the center of a cell plate which is in turn attached to the shaft, create a electromagnetic field when a DC voltage passes through the electrolytic solution.
