Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of hydrogen-rich water machine technology, specifically a hydrogen-rich water machine based on solid hydrolysis hydrogen production materials for instant hydrogen production. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, almost all large-scale hydrogen production technologies rely on water electrolysis. While mature, this technology has significant drawbacks. Firstly, it's energy-intensive, requiring a large current to ionize hydrogen and oxygen molecules in the water. Secondly, the equipment is expensive, including electrolyzers and hydrogen-oxygen separators, representing substantial investments. Thirdly, maintenance costs are high, as distilled water is essential and hydrogen-oxygen separators have short lifespans. Finally, the complex equipment limits its ability to achieve small size and high flow rates. Existing hydrogen-rich water machines can only maintain hydrogen nanobubbles for 10 seconds with room temperature water and only 5 seconds with 30-80℃ hot spring water, rendering them unusable in many situations and requiring high operational standards. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a low-energy, low-cost, portable, and practical hydrogen-rich product, combined with hydrogen dissolution technology, to better expand the application scenarios of hydrogen energy.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model discloses a hydrogen-rich water machine for instant hydrogen production based on solid water electrolysis hydrogen production materials. The technical solution includes a casing with a hydrogen production chamber mounted on it. Inside the casing are an intermediate tank, a hydrogen dissolving device, and a secondary mixing tank. The outlet of the hydrogen production chamber is connected to the intermediate tank, and the outlet of the intermediate tank is connected to the inlet of the hydrogen dissolving device, which is also connected to a water inlet pipe. The hydrogen dissolving device is also connected to a flow regulating valve to adjust the hydrogen dissolving effect. The hydrogen dissolving device is equipped with a microwave oscillation device and a fluid conveying device. The fluid conveying device is connected to the secondary mixing tank. The microwave oscillation device can significantly improve the maintenance time of hydrogen nanobubbles in warm water, reducing usage requirements.

[0006] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the flow regulating valve is located at the front end or the rear end of the hydrogen dissolving device. When the flow regulating valve is located at the front end of the hydrogen dissolving device, it can control the flow rate of hydrogen entering the hydrogen dissolving device. When it is located at the rear end of the hydrogen dissolving device, it can control the coexistence time of hydrogen and water in the hydrogen dissolving device, thereby accurately controlling the solubility of hydrogen and thus controlling the utilization rate of hydrogen. A flow detection device is provided at the rear end of the flow regulating valve.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the outer casing is equipped with an operation panel and a display screen, and the outer casing is also equipped with a control device.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, the flow detection device is a flow sensor, and the flow sensor and the microprocessor are electrically connected. Flow monitoring using a flow sensor provides greater accuracy.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the outer shell has two connecting ports, which are respectively connected to the water inlet pipe and the discharge pipe.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this invention, the outer casing is equipped with a handle and has ventilation holes. The handle facilitates carrying the device, and the ventilation holes facilitate heat dissipation.

[0011] Compared with existing technologies, the beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: By adding a microwave oscillation device to the hydrogen dissolving device, this invention can maintain the bubbles in water for more than one minute at water temperatures of 30-80℃, and even longer at room temperature, thereby significantly reducing usage requirements and water consumption. It can adapt to a wider range of operating environments, and the equipment has low energy consumption and low consumable costs, reducing overall operating costs. A flow regulating valve can be installed at the front or rear of the hydrogen dissolving device. When installed at the front, it can regulate the flow rate of hydrogen entering the device; when installed at the rear, it can change the residence time of hydrogen and water in the device. Since hydrogen continuously enters the device, changing the residence time allows for precise control of the solubility of hydrogen in water, thereby controlling the utilization rate of hydrogen.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model. Example 1

[0017] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this embodiment discloses the first implementation of the present invention. The technical solution adopted is as follows: It includes a shell 1, inside which a hydrogen production chamber 2 is installed. The hydrogen production chamber 2 includes a chamber body and a chamber cover. The chamber cover is threadedly connected to the chamber body. The chamber body can be used to store solid hydrolysis hydrogen production materials. To facilitate water flow into the chamber body, a water inlet is provided on the chamber cover. To prevent excessive pressure inside the chamber body, a safety valve is also installed on the chamber cover. To temporarily buffer the generated hydrogen, the outlet of the chamber body is connected to an intermediate tank 3. To enable hydrogen to be pumped into water to form hydrogen micro-nano bubbles, a hydrogen dissolving device 4 is also provided in the shell 1. The main body of the hydrogen dissolving device 4 is a delivery pump. The pump body is connected to the intermediate tank 3 for introducing hydrogen and is also connected to a water inlet pipe 7 for water supply. To increase the residence time of hydrogen micro-nano bubbles in water, a microwave oscillation device is installed in the pump body. To control the rate at which hydrogen enters the hydrogen dissolving device 4, a connection pipe is installed between the hydrogen dissolving device 4 and the intermediate tank 3. A flow regulating valve 6 is installed, and a flow sensor is installed behind the flow regulating valve 6 to detect the flow rate at the downstream end of the flow regulating valve 6. The outlet of the hydrogen dissolving device 4 is connected to the secondary mixing tank 5 through a pipe. The outlet of the secondary mixing tank 5 is connected to the discharge pipe 8. There are two pipe interfaces on the outer shell 1, which are connected to the water inlet pipe 7 and the discharge pipe 8 respectively. The pipe interface connected to the water inlet pipe 7 is connected to the hot spring water source. In order to improve the stability of the equipment, the hydrogen production chamber 2, intermediate tank 3, hydrogen dissolving device 4 and secondary mixing tank 5 are fixed to the outer shell 1 by a fixing plate.

[0018] A storage battery is installed inside the housing 1 to supply power to electrical equipment. The storage battery is fixed inside the housing 1 by a battery mounting bracket.

[0019] To facilitate equipment control and real-time data viewing, an operation panel 10 and a display screen 11 are provided on the outer casing 1. A control box is also provided inside the outer casing 1. The control box contains a microprocessor, which is an STM32 microprocessor and is electrically connected to the battery, hydrogen dissolving device 4, flow sensor, operation panel 10, and display screen 11.

[0020] To improve portability, a handle 9 is provided on the outer casing for easy carrying. To facilitate the dissipation of heat generated by the hydrogen production chamber 2 and the hydrogen dissolving device 4 and avoid affecting the normal operation of the motor and microprocessor, heat dissipation holes 12 are provided on the outer casing 1.

[0021] Working principle:

[0022] Solid hydrolysis hydrogen production material is loaded into hydrogen production chamber 2. The power is turned on, and the equipment is started using the control panel 10. Water is introduced into hydrogen production chamber 2. After the water comes into contact with the solid hydrolysis hydrogen production material, the material decomposes to produce hydrogen gas. The hydrogen gas is temporarily stored in intermediate tank 3 and then enters hydrogen dissolving device 4 through a pipeline. The flow rate regulating valve 6 can be used to adjust the flow rate of the hydrogen gas. When the flow rate reaches the set value, hot spring water enters the pump body of hydrogen dissolving device 4 through inlet pipe 7. In the pump body, the water comes into contact with the hydrogen gas, forming micro-nano bubbles. The microwave oscillation device is activated to extend the residence time of the hydrogen micro-nano bubbles. The motor of hydrogen dissolving device 4 is then started, sending the hot spring water containing hydrogen micro-nano bubbles into secondary mixing tank 5 for secondary mixing. After mixing, the mixture is discharged through outlet pipe 8. The operator can view the system operating status parameters through display screen 11. Example 2

[0023] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that the flow regulating valve 6 is located between the hydrogen dissolving device 4 and the secondary mixing tank 5 to change the residence time of hydrogen and water in the hydrogen dissolving device 4, thereby controlling the solubility of hydrogen.

[0024] The power supply uses a power module connected to a three-prong plug and is connected to AC power. Example 3

[0025] The difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that a flow regulating valve 6 is provided between the intermediate tank 3 and the hydrogen dissolving device 4, and between the hydrogen dissolving device 4 and the secondary mixing tank 5, to control the rate at which hydrogen enters the hydrogen dissolving device 4 and to change the residence time of hydrogen and water in the hydrogen dissolving device 4, thereby controlling the solubility of hydrogen.
