[0023] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0024] The utility model provides Figure 1-5 The drying device of a hydrogen generator shown in the figure includes a base 1, and a mounting seat 2 is fixedly mounted above one end of the base 1. The base 1 serves as the foundation of the entire drying device and stably supports the entire device. The mounting seat 2 is convenient for connecting with a condensation tank 3. A condensation tank 3 is arranged above the base 1 and on the front of the mounting seat 2. The condensation tank 3 is mainly used to cool the hydrogen so that it is not easy to produce droplets or water mist when it comes into contact with water under high temperature and high pressure. An adsorption box 4 is arranged above the base 1 and on one side of the condensation tank 3. The adsorption box 4 is used to adsorb particulate impurities in the hydrogen to improve the purity of the hydrogen. A drying cylinder 5 is arranged on the other side of the base 1 located on the condensation tank 3. The drying cylinder 5 is used to further dry the hydrogen to improve the purity of the hydrogen.

[0025] A connector 21 is provided on the back of the mounting base 2 , and the tail end of the connector 21 is connected to the inside of the mounting base 2 . An air outlet port 31 is fixedly installed on the front end of the condensation tank 3 , and the front end of the air outlet port 31 is threadedly connected to the front of the mounting base 2 .

[0026] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, at least two clamping rings 6 are fixedly installed on the outer wall of one side of the base 1, and the drying cylinder 5 is clamped and installed on the at least two clamping rings 6. The clamping ring 6 is used to fix the drying cylinder 5, thereby facilitating the installation and disassembly of the drying cylinder 5. A conduit 8 is connected between the front end of the drying cylinder 5 and the connecting head 21.

[0027] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, an end cover 33 is installed at the rear end of the condensation tank 3. The design of the end cover 33 facilitates opening the condensation tank 3, so that the internal impurities of the condensation tank 3 can be easily cleaned. An air inlet port 32 is fixedly installed on the outside of the end cover 33, and the air inlet port 32 is connected to one end of the adsorption box 4 through a conduit 8.

[0028] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, a cover plate 42 is installed on the top of the adsorption box 4 , and a plurality of carbon molecular sieves 41 are fixedly installed inside the adsorption box 4 .

[0029] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, the air outlet end of the drying cylinder 5 is externally connected to a collecting device, the drying cylinder 5 is filled with a desiccant, and the air inlet end of the adsorption box 4 is externally connected to a hydrogen generator.

[0030] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, a support frame 7 is provided at the bottom of the tail end of the condensation tank 3, and the support frame 7 is used to maintain the stability of the condensation tank 3.

[0032] One end of the adsorption box 4 is connected to the gas outlet of the hydrogen generator through a conduit, and then the hydrogen generator is turned on, and the hydrogen will enter the adsorption box 4. The carbon molecular sieve 41 in the adsorption box 4 can effectively adsorb particulate impurities in the hydrogen. The adsorbed hydrogen enters the condenser 3 through the conduit 8. The cooling effect in the condenser 3 makes it difficult for the hydrogen to produce droplets or water mist under high temperature and high pressure. Finally, the hydrogen is transported to the drying cylinder 5 through the conduit 8. The desiccant in the drying cylinder 5 is used for the final treatment of the hydrogen to maintain the dryness of the transported hydrogen. The hydrogen that has been dried is collected by a collection device outside the gas outlet of the drying cylinder 5.
