Problems solved by technology

The consumer is hit twice with these increases, first at the pump and again with the increased cost of goods transported by large fleets of trucks and ships for which fuel makes up a large portion of their operating expenses.
These approaches are limited in various ways—limited range for electric, limited hydrogen production, or have design limitations.
Most of the above solutions are aimed at new original equipment and generally does not solve problems with gasoline and diesel vehicles currently on the road.
In addition, the above solutions tend to have rather long return on investments.
This can be dangerous as the system works under pressure to create the hydrogen gas which can re

Example

[0014]FIG. 1 shows an exploded view of the hydrogen / oxygen generator 50. An inlet plate 1 is adjacent to a first cathode plate 4. The inlet plate has a first hole 2 and a second hole 3. The holes 2, 3 may each be configured to thread onto a tube fitting, and the tube fitting may be attachable to a hose (not shown). A hose in communication with hole 2 may be an oxygen and hydrogen carrying hose. And a hose in communication with hole 3 may be an electrolytic fluid carrying hose. The first hole 2 is located generally near the top of the plate, and the second hole 3 (not visible in this view) is located generally near the bottom of the plate. A first diaphragm plate 8 and second diaphragm plate 12 are located between the first cathode plate 4 and a first anode plate 16. A third diaphragm plate 20 and fourth diaphragm plate 24 are located between the first anode plate 16 and a second cathode plate 28. A fifth and sixth diaphragm plate 32, 36 are located between the second cathode plate 2...

Abstract

A hydrogen/oxygen generator comprising: a dry cell electrolyzer, the dry cell electrolyzer configurable to be in communication with a battery; a power supply in communication with the dry cell electrolyzer; the power supply configurable to be in communication with a battery; a pulse width modulator in communication with the power supply; where the current supplied to the dry cell electrolyzer from the power supply is at the resonant frequency of the dry cell electrolyzer. A hydrogen/oxygen generator system comprising: a dry cell electrolyzer, a battery in communication with the dry cell electrolyzer; a power supply in communication with the dry cell electrolyzer and the battery; a pulse width modulator in communication with the power supply; an electrolyte tank in communication with an air intake of an internal combustion engine, and in communication with the electrolyzer; and where the current supplied to the dry cell electrolyzer from the power supply is at the resonant frequency of the dry cell electrolyzer.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The present invention relates to a hydrogen / oxygen generator apparatus and system, and more specifically to a dry cell system for separating water into hydrogen and oxygen.BACKGROUND[0002]Fuel costs account for an ever-growing portion of expenses for individuals and businesses. Global geopolitical events, increased consumption in developed and developing nations, and the desire to reduce emissions have historically created upward trending price fluctuations for nearly all consumer goods. The consumer is hit twice with these increases, first at the pump and again with the increased cost of goods transported by large fleets of trucks and ships for which fuel makes up a large portion of their operating expenses.[0003]The high cost of fuel is being addressed primarily through the development of alternative fuels such as bio-fuels (plant based), hybrid (electric / gas) engines, electric vehicles, hydrogen powered vehicles, natural gas vehicles, and hydrogen cell techno...
