[0002] A gas diffusion electrolytic cell is a common electrolytic cell, which is often used in water treatment systems to treat chemical pollutants, sulfides, etc. to improve water quality. It mainly consists of three parts: an electrolytic cell, a gas diffuser, and an electric machine assembly. In daily life, a membrane electrode type gas diffusion electrolytic cell is required.
[0003] Currently, the distance between the anode and cathode of the electrolytic cell is generally about 6 mm. Since the distance between the anode and cathode of the electrolytic cell is closely related to the magnitude of the current, the smaller the distance between the anode and cathode, the smaller the resistance, and the smaller the resistance, the larger the current. However, the current distance between the anode and cathode is relatively far, which will result in a relatively large resistance between the anode and cathode, thereby resulting in a relatively small overall current of the electrolytic cell, unable to meet different requirements, and reducing the overall practicality of the electrolytic cell.
[0004] Therefore, those skilled in the art provide a membrane electrode type gas diffusion electrolytic cell to solve the problems raised in the above background art. Content of the Utility Model

[0028] Please refer to Figure 1 - Figure 5 as shown, this embodiment provides a membrane electrode type gas diffusion electrolytic cell, including a cathode current collector 1 and an anode current collector 2, and further including:
[0029] A gasket assembly, disposed between the cathode current collector 1 and the anode current collector 2, and used to reduce the overall thickness of the device, and at the same time can effectively improve the overall current of the device;
[0030] An inlet pipe 6 and an outlet pipe 7, both connected to the outside of the cathode current collector 1;
[0031] The cathode inlet pipe 19 and the cathode outlet pipe 8 are both connected to the outside of the cathode current collector 1, and a reference electrode 20 is provided inside the cathode inlet pipe 19;
[0032] The anode inlet pipe 9 and the anode outlet pipe 10 are both connected to the outside of the anode current collector 2;
[0033] The conductive component is arranged inside the anode current collector 2 and is used to improve the overall electrical conductivity of the device, thereby preventing situations such as short circuits in the device;
[0034] The conductive electrode tab 13 is arranged outside the anode current collector 2.
[0035] The above working principle: The gasket assembly can effectively shorten the distance between the cathode current collector 1 and the anode current collector 2, thereby reducing the ion transport impedance, and further effectively improving the overall performance and stability of the electrolytic cell. The conductive component can effectively play a conductive role, thereby preventing situations such as short circuits during the use of the overall electrolytic cell, which affect the normal use effect of the overall electrolytic cell. In this device, the electrolyte inlets and outlets are integrated on the current collector, and the ultra-thin insulating flexible cathode electrolyte gasket 4 with a flow channel shape is set to replace the original rigid electrolyte flow channel assembly with electrolyte inlets and outlets, greatly shortening the distance between the cathode and anode of the electrolytic cell, reducing the ion transport impedance, and further improving the performance and stability of the electrolytic cell. The overall structural design is simple and easy to manufacture.
[0036] In order to effectively reduce the distance between the cathode current collector 1 and the anode current collector 2, thereby effectively increasing the overall current of the device, the gasket assembly includes a cathode gasket 3 arranged between the cathode current collector 1 and the anode current collector 2. One side of the cathode gasket 3 is provided with a cathode electrolyte gasket 4, and one side of the cathode electrolyte gasket 4 is provided with an anode gasket 5. The thicknesses of the cathode gasket 3, the cathode electrolyte gasket 4, and the anode gasket 5 are all 0.3 mm. Since the thicknesses of the cathode gasket 3, the cathode electrolyte gasket 4, and the anode gasket 5 are all 0.3 mm, installing the cathode gasket 3, the cathode electrolyte gasket 4, and the anode gasket 5 between the cathode current collector 1 and the anode current collector 2 can effectively reduce the distance between the cathode current collector 1 and the anode current collector 2, thereby effectively reducing the resistance between the cathode current collector 1 and the anode current collector 2, and further effectively increasing the overall current of the electrolytic cell.
[0037] Considering that the overall electrolytic cell needs to be assembled before use, the cathode current collector 1 and the anode current collector 2 are fixedly connected by a plurality of bolts 11 and nuts 12. Activity holes for the bolts 11 to move are provided inside the cathode gasket 3, the cathode electrolyte gasket 4, and the anode gasket 5. When the overall device needs to be assembled, only need to first place the cathode gasket 3, the cathode electrolyte gasket 4, and the anode gasket 5 between the cathode current collector 1 and the anode current collector 2, and then use the bolts 11 and nuts 12 to fix the cathode current collector 1 and the anode current collector 2. Since activity holes for the bolts 11 to move are provided inside the cathode gasket 3, the cathode electrolyte gasket 4, and the anode gasket 5, after the installation between the cathode current collector 1 and the anode current collector 2 is completed, the cathode gasket 3, the cathode electrolyte gasket 4, and the anode gasket 5 will also be synchronously installed between the cathode current collector 1 and the anode current collector 2.
[0038] In order to enable the gas to flow and at the same time be able to transport the electrolyte, first serpentine groove channels 21 are provided inside the cathode current collector 1, second serpentine groove channels 23 are provided inside the anode current collector 2, and circular holes 22 are provided inside the cathode current collector 1. The first serpentine groove channels 21 provided inside the cathode current collector 1 can be used for the gas to flow, the second serpentine groove channels 23 provided inside the anode current collector 2 can be used for the anode electrolyte to flow, and the circular holes 22 provided inside the cathode current collector 1 can be used for the cathode electrolyte to be transported.
[0039] In order to effectively improve the overall performance and stability of the electrolytic cell, rectangular hole grooves 17 are provided inside the cathode gasket 3, the cathode electrolyte gasket 4, and the anode gasket 5. A transmission channel 18 is provided inside the cathode electrolyte gasket 4. The transmission channel 18 can be used for the cathode electrolyte to be transported and flow. By using the cathode electrolyte gasket 4 with the shape of the transmission channel 18, the distance between the cathode current collector 1 and the anode current collector 2 of the electrolytic cell can be significantly shortened, thereby reducing the impedance of ion transmission, and further effectively improving the overall performance and stability of the electrolytic cell.
[0040] In addition, in order to prevent short circuits and other situations from occurring during the use of the device, the material of the cathode current collector 1 is engineering plastic, and the material of the anode current collector 2 is metal. The engineering plastic can effectively play an insulating role, thereby preventing leakage and short circuits and other situations from occurring during the overall use of the device, which affects the normal use effect of the device.
[0041] In order to further improve the overall electrical conductivity of the device, the conductive component includes a cathode conductive electrode 14 disposed inside the anode current collector 2. A sealing screw 15 is provided on one side of the cathode conductive electrode 14. The sealing screw 15 is fixedly connected to the anode current collector 2 by a thread. A propulsion screw 16 is provided on one side of the sealing screw 15. The propulsion screw 16 is fixedly connected to the sealing screw 15 by a thread. Through the cooperation among the cathode conductive electrode 14, the sealing screw 15 and the propulsion screw 16, the overall electrical conductivity of the device can be further improved, thereby further preventing the occurrence of leakage and short circuit during the use of the device.
