Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of hydrogen generators, in particular to a contact-free hydrogen generator with integrated production and absorption. Background Art

[0002] A hydrogen generator is a device that uses natural energy or external power to decompose water into hydrogen and oxygen. It mainly uses electric current to pass through an electrolyte solution in water to decompose water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen. It usually consists of a water tank, an electrolytic cell, an electrolyte solution, electrodes, etc. During the electrolysis process, water molecules receive electrons at the cathode and are reduced to hydrogen, while they lose electrons at the anode and are oxidized to oxygen. This hydrogen generator is easy to operate, the gas output can be changed according to the gas consumption, the output pressure is stable, and daily use only requires the addition of distilled water.

[0003] The drying tube of the hydrogen generator is generally made of materials with excellent moisture absorption and chemical stability. Common materials include silica gel, molecular sieves and activated carbon. Silica gel is a porous solid material with strong adsorption capacity, which can effectively absorb and remove moisture from hydrogen. Silica gel is stable during the drying process, is not prone to chemical reactions, and can be recycled, so it is one of the commonly used materials for the drying tube of the hydrogen generator.

[0004] Existing hydrogen generators have a low utilization rate of the silica gel particles in the drying tube. When the silica gel in the area near one end of the air inlet is saturated, all the silica gel needs to be replaced. The adsorption direction of the silica gel particles in the drying tube cannot be switched, resulting in the inability to continue adsorbing the silica gel in the other end area. The saturated silica gel affects the flow state of hydrogen in the drying tube, which may cause uneven hydrogen flow, further affecting the adsorption effect of the silica gel.

[0047] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the utility model clearer, the technical solution in the embodiments of the utility model is described clearly and completely. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0048] Reference Figure 1-Figure 5 , a contact-free hydrogen generator comprising:

[0049] Shell 1; drying section 6, which is a hollow structure, is installed in shell 1 and is used for drying hydrogen; filtering section 7, which is a hollow structure, is installed in shell 1 and is used for filtering impurities in hydrogen, and filtering section 7 is arranged directly above drying section 6, and drying section 6 is communicated with filtering section 7; drying section 6 is arranged to rotate in shell 1, and drying section 6 comprises a first conveying pipe 601 and a second conveying pipe 606, and the first conveying pipe 601 and the second conveying pipe 606 are respectively connected to the upper and lower ends of drying section 6; drying section 6 has two use states, one of which is that the first conveying pipe 601 is connected to filtering section 7, and the other is that after the drying section 6 rotates, the second conveying pipe 606 is connected to filtering section 7.

[0050] By switching the position of the drying section 6, the previously unsaturated or low-saturation dry particles are placed at the air inlet end. These dry particles can more effectively absorb moisture in the hydrogen, thereby improving the efficiency of the entire drying process, ensuring that the dry particles are evenly utilized in the entire drying section 6, and reducing the premature failure of dry particles in a certain area due to excessive use, thereby extending the overall service life of the drying section 6. By rotating the drying section 6, it can be ensured that the hydrogen always contacts the relatively dry dry particles first when passing through the drying section 6, reducing the risk of increased hydrogen humidity due to silica gel saturation, thereby obtaining drier and higher quality hydrogen. Compared with replacing the entire drying section 6 or replacing the dry particles individually, simply rotating the drying section 6 to switch positions is a more convenient and economical maintenance method, which can reduce maintenance costs and operational complexity.

[0051] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 5The drying section 6 includes: two cover plates 605, which are detachably mounted at both ends of the drying section 6, and a first conveying pipe 601 and a second conveying pipe 606 are respectively mounted on the two cover plates 605; two joints 602, which are respectively mounted on the first conveying pipe 601 and the second conveying pipe 606, for connecting with the filtering section 7; and a plurality of drying particles are filled in the drying section 6.

[0052] The drying particles are made of silica gel. The drying section 6 is designed with two detachable cover plates 605, which makes assembly and disassembly extremely simple. When the drying particles in the drying section 6 need to be replaced or cleaned, the cover plate 605 can be easily removed without a complicated disassembly process. By installing joints 602 on the first delivery pipe 601 and the second delivery pipe 606 respectively, the drying section 6 can be flexibly connected to the filter section 7. This design allows the user to choose to use the first delivery pipe 601 or the second delivery pipe 606 to connect to the filter section 7 as needed, thereby ensuring that the hydrogen can smoothly pass through the drying section 6 for drying.

[0053] Reference Figure 5 The filter unit 7 includes a connecting pipe 701, a joint 602 is threadedly connected to the connecting pipe 701, and a gasket 603 is connected between the joint 602 and the connecting pipe 701. The filter unit 7 is filled with a plurality of filter particles, and the filter particles are molecular sieve particles. The gasket 603 can effectively enhance the sealing between the joint 602 and the connecting pipe 701. The filter particles can effectively remove impurities in the hydrogen and ensure the cleanliness of the output hydrogen.

[0054] The connecting member 8 is arranged in the outer shell 1, one end of which is connected to the filter part 7, and the other end is connected to the drying part 6; the rotating shaft 801 is installed on the connecting member 8, one end of which is connected to the drying part 6. By installing the rotating shaft 801 on the connecting member 8 and connecting one end of the rotating shaft 801 to the drying part 6, the rotation function of the drying part 6 is realized.

[0055] Reference Figure 5 Anti-dropping sheets 604 are installed on both the first delivery pipe 601 and the second delivery pipe 606. The anti-dropping sheets 604 are connected to one side of the cover plate 605. The anti-dropping sheets 604 enhance the connection stability between the delivery pipe and the cover plate 605, and can effectively prevent the delivery pipe from falling off or shifting during use, thereby ensuring the stable operation of the gas processing device.

[0056] Reference Figure 2The electrolysis part 2 is installed in the outer shell 1, and the drying part 6 is connected to the electrolysis part 2; the water storage part 3 is installed in the outer shell 1, and the water storage part 3 is connected to the water inlet of the electrolysis part 2, and is used to provide the electrolysis part 2 with the water source required for electrolysis; the water storage part 3 includes a sealing cover 301, and the sealing cover 301 is installed on the water storage part 3, and is used to seal the water filling port of the water storage part 3; the control part 4 is installed in the outer shell 1, and is connected to the electrolysis part 2, and is used to control the electrolysis part 2.

[0057] The electrolysis section 2 adopts a PEM electrolytic cell, and may also adopt an alkaline electrolytic cell. By installing the electrolysis section 2 and connecting it to the drying section 6, water can be decomposed into hydrogen and oxygen using electrolysis technology to achieve efficient generation of hydrogen. The water storage section 3 is connected to the water inlet of the electrolysis section 2 to provide a stable and reliable water source for the electrolysis section 2, thereby ensuring the continuity and stability of the electrolysis process. The water storage section 3 is equipped with a sealing cover 301 to effectively prevent water evaporation and the entry of external pollutants, while facilitating the user to add water to the water storage section 3, thereby maintaining the cleanliness and sufficiency of the water source. The control section 4 can achieve precise control of the electrolysis process, including the adjustment of parameters such as electrolysis time and current intensity, thereby ensuring the efficiency and quality of hydrogen generation.

[0058] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 , a release tube 5 is installed on the shell 1, the filter unit 7 is connected to one end of the release tube 5, and the release tube 5 is used to release hydrogen; the release tube 5 includes a power source 501 installed in the shell 1, the power source 501 is connected between the release tube 5 and the filter unit 7, and is used to provide power for the transportation of hydrogen; the shell 1 includes a handle 101, the handle 101 is installed on the shell 1, and is used to carry and move the shell 1.

[0059] The power source 501 adopts a centrifugal fan, and may also adopt an axial flow fan. The release tube 5 provides power for the transportation of hydrogen, ensuring that the hydrogen can be smoothly released from the device, and the user can inhale the hydrogen without contacting the release tube 5, thereby satisfying the user's need for contactless use. Driven by the power source 501, the release tube 5 can efficiently transport hydrogen, reducing resistance and loss during the transportation process, and improving the efficiency of hydrogen transportation. The handle 101 installed on the outer shell 1 makes the entire device easier to carry and move, and the user can easily carry it to different places of use, thereby improving the portability and flexibility of the device.

[0060] During use, after hydrogen is produced in the electrolysis section 2, it is sent to the drying section 6 through the second delivery pipe 606. The drying particles in the drying section 6 dry the hydrogen, and then enter the filtering section 7 through the first delivery pipe 601. The filtering particles can effectively remove impurities in the hydrogen to ensure the cleanliness of the output hydrogen. Then the hydrogen is transported to the release pipe 5 through the power source 501. The release pipe 5 provides power for the transportation of hydrogen to ensure that the hydrogen can be smoothly released from the device, and the user can inhale the hydrogen without contacting the release pipe 5, meeting the user's contact-free needs. The silica gel particles near the second delivery pipe 606 will first contact with the hydrogen and will be saturated in advance. At this time, the two joints 602 are rotated, and the joints 602 are connected from the connecting pipe 701 and The first delivery pipe 601 is connected to the electrolysis part 2 by switching the position of the drying part 6, so that the silica gel particles near the first delivery pipe 601 are in contact with the hydrogen first. These dry particles can more effectively absorb the moisture in the hydrogen, thereby improving the efficiency of the entire drying process, ensuring that the dry particles are evenly utilized in the entire drying part 6, reducing the premature failure of dry particles in a certain area due to excessive use, thereby extending the overall service life of the drying part 6. By rotating the drying part 6, it can be ensured that the hydrogen always contacts the relatively dry dry particles first when passing through the drying part 6, reducing the risk of increased hydrogen humidity due to silica gel saturation, thereby obtaining drier and higher quality hydrogen.

[0061] In summary, compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0062] By rotating and switching the position of the drying section 6 , the dried particles can be evenly utilized, reducing premature failure due to local overuse, thereby significantly extending the overall service life of the drying section 6 .

[0063] The power source 501 is used to transport hydrogen through the release tube 5, ensuring smooth release of hydrogen while meeting the user's need for contact-free inhalation, which is both safe and convenient.
