Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of hydrogen-rich water preparation, and in particular to an apparatus and method for preparing hydrogen-rich water. Background Technology

[0002] Hydrogen-rich water refers to water containing trace amounts of hydrogen molecules. Hydrogen molecules are the smallest known molecules in nature, possessing strong penetrability and able to pass through the skin and mucous membranes into organs, tissues, and cells, making them very easily absorbed and utilized by the human body. Although hydrogen-rich water and ordinary water are not fundamentally different, the presence of hydrogen does endow it with some special properties. Hydrogen has antioxidant properties, effectively removing free radicals from the body; its antioxidant capacity even surpasses that of known human antioxidants such as vitamin C, carotene, and lecithin.

[0003] Existing related technologies disclose a hydrogen-rich water preparation device, which includes a hydrogen production component, a by-product treatment component, a hydrogen-rich water preparation component, and a control component. The hydrogen production component includes a storage component, a water supply component, and a reaction chamber component. The storage component is used to store the hydrolysis hydrogen-producing material. The reaction chamber component is connected to both the storage component and the water supply component. The by-product treatment component is connected to the reaction chamber component. The hydrogen-rich water preparation component is connected to the hydrogen outlet of the reaction chamber component. The control component is connected to the hydrogen production component, the hydrogen-rich water preparation component, and the by-product treatment component. However, due to the low solubility of hydrogen in water, the hydrogen concentration in the hydrogen-rich water is not high. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This application addresses the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing an apparatus and method for preparing hydrogen-rich water, thereby increasing the hydrogen concentration in the hydrogen-rich water.

[0005] The technical solution to the above-mentioned technical problems in this application is as follows:

[0006] An apparatus and method for preparing hydrogen-rich water, comprising a first water tank, a second water tank, and an electrolysis tank;

[0007] The electrolytic water tank is used to electrolyze water into oxygen and hydrogen, which are then discharged through the oxygen outlet and hydrogen outlet, respectively.

[0008] The first water tank is located above the second water tank;

[0009] The first water tank and the second water tank are connected by a first venturi tube. Water in the first water tank enters the second water tank through the first venturi tube by means of the pressure difference between the first water tank and the second water tank. The first venturi tube is also connected to the hydrogen outlet, which is used to mix the hydrogen generated by the water electrolysis tank into the water flow.

[0010] The first water tank and the second water tank are also connected by a water pump and a second venturi tube. The water pump is used to pump water from the second water tank into the first water tank through the second venturi tube. The second venturi tube is also connected to the oxygen outlet, which is used to mix the oxygen generated by the electrolysis tank into the water flow.

[0011] The sidewalls of the first Venturi tube and the second Venturi tube are provided with strong electric fields;

[0012] The second water tank has an outlet at the bottom for users to draw water.

[0013] By employing the above technical solution, the water electrolysis tank electrolyzes water into oxygen and hydrogen. Water from the first tank enters the second tank through the first venturi tube via the pressure difference between the first and second tanks. During this process, hydrogen from the water electrolysis tank is introduced into the first venturi tube through the hydrogen outlet, causing the hydrogen to dissolve in the water within the first venturi tube under the influence of an electric field, thus obtaining a hydrogen-containing solution. After entering the second tank, the hydrogen-containing solution is pumped back into the first tank via the second venturi tube. During this process, oxygen from the water electrolysis tank is introduced into the second venturi tube through the oxygen outlet, mixing with the water through the second venturi tube. Oxygen is more soluble in water than hydrogen, and under the influence of an electric field, dissolved oxygen exhibits properties similar to strongly polar molecules, more readily adsorbing hydrogen molecules than water molecules. This adsorption of weakly polar hydrogen by the strongly polar oxygen in the water allows more hydrogen to dissolve, ultimately yielding hydrogen-rich water.

[0014] Furthermore, the first water tank is equipped with a sliding seal for a pressurizing weight, which is used to provide water pressure to the water in the first water tank.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the pressurizing weight can increase the water pressure in the first water tank, allowing the water in the first water tank to flow more smoothly into the second water tank through the first venturi tube.

[0016] Furthermore, both the first and second water tanks are equipped with an electric field.

[0017] Furthermore, a solenoid valve is also provided in front of the first venturi tube.

[0018] The present invention discloses a method for preparing hydrogen-rich water, comprising the following steps:

[0019] S1. Start the strong electric field at the first and second Venturi tubes;

[0020] S2. Start the electrolysis device to electrolyze the water in the electrolysis tank into oxygen and hydrogen;

[0021] S3. The solenoid valve is opened, allowing water in the first water tank to be sprayed into the second water tank through the first venturi tube. At the same time, the first venturi tube mixes the hydrogen gas generated by the electrolysis of water into the water flow under the action of a strong electric field, thus obtaining hydrogen-rich water in the second water tank.

[0022] S4. Start the water pump. The water pump will pump the hydrogen-rich water in the second water tank back to the first water tank through the second Venturi mixer. At the same time, the second Venturi mixer will mix the oxygen generated by the electrolysis of water into the water flow under the action of a strong electric field. Under the action of a strong electric field, the oxygen molecules dissolved in the water exhibit strong polarity and are more likely to adsorb the weakly polar hydrogen molecules. Therefore, by using the oxygen dissolved in the water to adsorb hydrogen molecules, the hydrogen molecules are fixed in the water to obtain hydrogen-rich water.

[0023] The above steps S3 and S4 are repeated to give hydrogen enough time to dissolve in the water.

[0024] In summary, compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the above technical solution are:

[0025] The apparatus and method for preparing hydrogen-rich water described in this application introduce oxygen into the water and, by taking advantage of the strong polarity of oxygen under the action of an electric field, further adsorb the weakly polar hydrogen molecules, thereby increasing the amount of dissolved hydrogen molecules in the water. Compared with the traditional processing method that only introduces hydrogen, a higher concentration of hydrogen-rich water can be obtained. Attached Figure Description

[0028] The principles and features of this application are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The examples given are only for explaining this application and are not intended to limit the scope of this application.

[0029] Example 1

[0030] Reference Figure 1 A device for preparing hydrogen-rich water includes a first water tank 1, a second water tank 2, and an electrolysis tank 3; the electrolysis tank 3 is used to electrolyze water into oxygen and hydrogen, which are discharged through oxygen outlet 4 and hydrogen outlet 5 respectively; the first water tank 1 is located above the second water tank 2.

[0031] The first water tank 1 and the second water tank 2 are connected by a first venturi tube 6. Water in the first water tank 1 enters the second water tank 2 through the first venturi tube 6 by means of the pressure difference between the first water tank 1 and the second water tank 2. The first venturi tube 6 is also connected to the hydrogen outlet 5, which is used to mix the hydrogen generated by the electrolysis water tank 3 into the water flow.

[0032] The first water tank 1 and the second water tank 2 are connected by a water pump 8 and a second venturi tube 7. The water pump 8 is used to pump water from the second water tank 2 into the first water tank 1 through the second venturi tube 7. The second venturi tube 7 is also connected to the oxygen outlet 4 to mix the oxygen generated by the electrolysis tank 3 into the water flow. A strong electric field is provided on the side walls of the first venturi tube 6 and the second venturi tube 7. A solenoid valve is also provided in front of the first venturi tube 6.

[0033] The electrolysis tank 3 electrolyzes water into oxygen and hydrogen. Water in the first tank 1 enters the second tank 2 through the first venturi tube 6 by means of the pressure difference between the first tank 1 and the second tank 2. During this process, hydrogen in the electrolysis tank 3 is input into the first venturi tube 6 through the hydrogen outlet 5, so that the hydrogen dissolves in the water in the first venturi tube 6 under the action of the electric field, thereby obtaining a hydrogen-containing solution.

[0034] After the hydrogen-containing solution enters the second water tank 2, it is fed into the first water tank 1 through the water pump 8 and the second Venturi tube 7. During this process, oxygen in the electrolysis tank 3 is fed into the second Venturi tube 7 through the oxygen outlet 4. The oxygen is then mixed into the hydrogen-containing solution through the second Venturi tube 6. Under normal conditions, oxygen is more soluble in water than hydrogen. However, under the influence of an electric field, oxygen dissolved in water exhibits strong polarity and is more likely to adsorb weakly polar hydrogen molecules than water molecules. Therefore, by adding an electric field to the water tank, the oxygen dissolved in the water, which exhibits polar molecular properties, adsorbs polar hydrogen molecules, allowing more hydrogen to dissolve in the water, ultimately obtaining hydrogen-rich water.

[0035] The first water tank 1 is provided with a sliding seal for a pressurizing weight 9, which is used to provide water pressure to the water in the first water tank 1, so that the water in the first water tank 1 can enter the second water tank 2 more smoothly through the first venturi tube 6. The bottom of the second water tank 2 is provided with a water outlet 10 for users to take water.

[0036] Both the first water tank 1 and the second water tank 2 are equipped with an electric field. Under the influence of the electric field, hydrogen molecules dissolved in water exhibit properties similar to polar molecules. Polar molecules have an uneven distribution of positive and negative charges, which makes them more likely to interact with other molecules. Because hydrogen exhibits weaker polarity under the influence of an electric field, it does not undergo a significant polarity change like oxygen molecules.

[0037] Because oxygen molecules, which exhibit polar molecular properties, have an uneven distribution of positive and negative charges, they are more likely to interact with surrounding molecules. In this case, oxygen molecules are more likely to adsorb hydrogen molecules, because the interaction between the more polar oxygen molecules and the less polar hydrogen molecules can produce a strong attraction.

[0038] In summary, oxygen is more soluble in water than hydrogen. Under the influence of an electric field, dissolved oxygen in water exhibits strong polarity, making it easier for it to adsorb hydrogen molecules compared to water molecules, thereby increasing the solubility of hydrogen molecules in water.

[0039] Example 2

[0040] This embodiment, in conjunction with Example 1, discloses a method for preparing hydrogen-rich water, comprising the following steps:

[0041] S1. Activate the strong electric field at the first Venturi tube 6 and the second Venturi tube 7;

[0042] S2. Start the electrolysis device to electrolyze the water in the electrolysis tank into oxygen and hydrogen;

[0043] S3. The solenoid valve is opened, allowing water in the first water tank 1 to be sprayed into the second water tank 2 through the first venturi tube 6. At the same time, the first venturi tube 6 mixes the hydrogen gas generated by the electrolysis of water into the water flow under the action of a strong electric field, thus obtaining hydrogen-rich water in the second water tank 2.

[0044] S4. Start water pump 8. Water pump 8 pumps the oxygen-enriched water in the second water tank 2 back to the first water tank 1 through the second Venturi mixer. At the same time, the second Venturi mixer mixes the oxygen generated by water electrolysis into the water flow under the action of a strong electric field. Under the action of a strong electric field, the oxygen dissolved in the water becomes polar and more easily adsorbs hydrogen molecules. Therefore, by using the oxygen dissolved in the water to adsorb hydrogen molecules, the hydrogen molecules are fixed in the water to obtain hydrogen-enriched water.

[0045] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
