Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of hydrogen and oxygen generating devices, specifically a multi-layered hydrogen and oxygen generating device. Background Technology

[0002] A hydrogen-oxygen generator is a device that uses the principle of electrolysis to decompose water into hydrogen and oxygen. It plays an important role in many fields. In the energy sector, with the development of hydrogen energy as a clean energy source, hydrogen-oxygen generators are key equipment for realizing hydrogen energy production and are of great significance for promoting energy transformation.

[0003] The working principle of the hydrogen-oxygen generator is based on the electrolysis of water. The device is equipped with electrodes. When a DC voltage is applied across the electrodes, water molecules decompose under the influence of the electric field. At the cathode, water molecules gain electrons and undergo a reduction reaction to generate hydrogen gas. At the anode, water molecules lose electrons and undergo an oxidation reaction to generate oxygen gas. Through this electrochemical reaction process, the hydrogen-oxygen generator can continuously convert water into hydrogen and oxygen gas, thus generating the gases.

[0004] However, during the process of generating gas in the hydrogen-oxygen generator, the conversion of electrical energy into chemical energy during water electrolysis is not entirely efficient. Some electrical energy is converted into heat energy, causing the temperature of the electrodes and the surrounding water to rise. As the temperature rises, the water evaporates more rapidly, and a large amount of water vapor mixes into the generated hydrogen and oxygen, resulting in a significant reduction in the purity of the final gas. Utility Model Content

[0005] Therefore, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a multi-layered hydrogen-oxygen generator to solve the technical problem that the gas produced by electrolysis in the hydrogen-oxygen generator contains a large amount of water vapor, which leads to a decrease in the purity of the gas.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a multi-layered hydrogen-oxygen generator, comprising a generator tank, a water supply pipe installed inside the generator tank, a cooling pipe, a condenser pipe, and a drying pipe sequentially sleeved on the outer wall of the water supply pipe, a first connecting pipe installed on the top of the generator tank, a second connecting pipe connected to the top of the cooling pipe, a gas collecting groove provided on the top of the condenser pipe, three sets of third connecting pipes connected to the top of the gas collecting groove, and a gas outlet pipe fixed on the outer wall of the drying pipe.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the problem of reduced gas purity caused by a large amount of water vapor in the gas produced by electrolysis in the hydrogen-oxygen generator is solved. The gas produced by electrolysis flows into the cooling pipe through the first connecting pipe, and the cooling pipe cools the gas. Then the gas flows into the condenser through the second connecting pipe. The water inside the water supply pipe absorbs the heat in the condenser, causing the water vapor in the vent to cool and form water droplets. The cooled gas enters the drying pipe for drying. The drying block in the drying pipe absorbs the water molecules contained in the gas, so that the gas discharged from the outlet pipe is dry gas.

[0008] The present invention is further configured such that two sets of electrode posts are installed inside the generating tank, and the two sets of motor posts are respectively the positive and negative poles.

[0009] Preferably, when the two sets of electrode posts with positive and negative electrodes are energized, the electrode posts electrolyze water, thereby producing hydrogen and oxygen.

[0010] The present invention is further provided that the condenser tube has a vent hole inside, the vent hole is rotatably arranged, and the condenser tube is made of ceramic material.

[0011] Preferably, the gas in the condenser tube flows upward through a spiral vent, and an external water source supplies water to the generator tank through a water supply pipe. The cooler water absorbs the heat inside the vent, thus cooling the gas flowing inside the vent.

[0012] The present invention is further provided that a water collection trough is provided at the bottom of the condenser tube, and the water collection trough is inclined.

[0013] Preferably, the water vapor in the condenser is cooled to form small water droplets, which flow along the vent into the water collection tank. Because the inner wall of the water collection tank is inclined, the water droplets inside the water collection tank converge to one side.

[0014] The present invention is further configured such that a fourth connecting pipe is connected to the bottom of the water collection tank, and a water storage tank is installed at the end of the fourth connecting pipe.

[0015] Preferably, the water droplets collected inside the water collection tank flow into the water storage tank through the fourth connecting pipe, and the water storage tank collects the water droplets formed by the condensation of water vapor.

[0016] The present invention is further configured such that a drying block is installed inside the drying tube, and the drying block is made of type A molecular sieve material.

[0017] Preferably, the drying block adsorbs water molecules in the gas introduced into the drying tube, so that the gas discharged from the outlet tube is dry.

[0018] The present invention is further configured such that a sealing plate is movably installed on the top of the drying tube, and the sealing plate is fixedly installed on the top of the drying tube by bolts.

[0019] Preferably, personnel can open the sealing plate and periodically replace the drying blocks inside the drying tube to ensure the drying effect of the drying tube on the gas.

[0020] The present invention is further configured such that both the water supply pipe and the cooling pipe are made of aluminum oxide ceramic material.

[0021] Preferably, aluminum oxide ceramic materials have good thermal conductivity and insulation, which allows the cool water inside the water pipe to absorb heat from the cooling pipe and condenser pipe.

[0022] In summary, the present invention has the following main advantages:

[0023] 1. This utility model solves the problem of reduced gas purity caused by a large amount of water vapor in the gas produced by electrolysis in a hydrogen-oxygen generator by setting up a generating tank, a water supply pipe, a cooling pipe, a condenser pipe, a drying pipe, and a drying block. The gas produced by electrolysis flows into the cooling pipe through the first connecting pipe, where the cooling pipe cools the gas. Then, the gas flows into the condenser pipe through the second connecting pipe. The water inside the water supply pipe absorbs the heat in the condenser pipe, causing the water vapor in the condenser pipe to cool and form water droplets. The cooled gas then enters the drying pipe for drying. The drying block in the drying pipe absorbs the water molecules contained in the gas, so that the gas discharged from the outlet pipe is dry gas.

[0024] 2. This utility model, by setting up a vent, a water collection tank, a fourth connecting pipe, and a water storage tank, allows the cooler water in the water supply pipe to absorb the heat inside the vent, thus cooling the gas flowing inside the vent. The water vapor contained in the gas cools and forms small water droplets, which flow along the vent into the water collection tank. The water droplets collected inside the water collection tank flow into the water storage tank through the fourth connecting pipe, where the water storage tank collects the water droplets formed by the condensation of water vapor.

[0032] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0033] The embodiments of this utility model will be described below based on its overall structure.

[0034] First embodiment:

[0035] Please see Figure 1 — Figure 4 The device includes a generating tank 1, inside which a water supply pipe 2 is installed. The outer wall of the water supply pipe 2 is sequentially fitted with a cooling pipe 3, a condenser pipe 4, and a drying pipe 5. A first connecting pipe 301 is installed on the top of the generating tank 1. A second connecting pipe 302 is connected to the top of the cooling pipe 3. A gas collecting groove 403 is installed on the top of the condenser pipe 4. Three sets of third connecting pipes 404 are connected to the top of the gas collecting groove 403. An outlet pipe 501 is fixed to the outer wall of the drying pipe 5. This design solves the problem of reduced gas purity caused by a large amount of water vapor in the gas produced by the electrolysis of the hydrogen-oxygen generator. The gas generated by electrolysis flows into the cooling pipe 3 through the first connecting pipe 301. The cooling pipe 3 cools the generated gas. Then, the gas flows into the condenser pipe 4 through the second connecting pipe 302. The water inside the water supply pipe 2 absorbs the heat in the condenser pipe 4, causing the water vapor in the vent 401 to cool and form water droplets. The cooled gas enters the drying pipe 5 for drying. The drying block 503 in the drying pipe 5 absorbs the water molecules contained in the gas, so that the gas discharged from the outlet pipe 501 is dry gas.

[0036] For details regarding the above embodiments, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 3 Inside the generating tank 1, there are two sets of electrode columns 101. The two sets of electrode columns 101 are positive and negative, respectively. When the two sets of electrode columns 101 with positive and negative electrodes are energized, the electrode columns 101 electrolyze water, so that the water electrolysis produces hydrogen and oxygen.

[0037] For details regarding the above embodiments, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 2 The condenser tube 4 has a vent hole 401 inside, which is rotatably set. The condenser tube 4 is made of ceramic material. The gas in the condenser tube 4 flows upward through the spiral vent hole 401. The external water source delivers water to the generator tank 1 through the water supply pipe 2. The lower temperature water absorbs the heat inside the vent hole 401, so that the gas flowing inside the vent hole 401 is cooled.

[0038] For details regarding the above embodiments, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 2 A water collection tank 402 is provided at the bottom of the condenser tube 4, and the water collection tank 402 is inclined. The water vapor in the condenser tube 4 is cooled to form small water droplets. The water droplets flow along the vent 401 into the water collection tank 402. Because the inner wall of the water collection tank 402 is inclined, the water droplets inside the water collection tank 402 converge to one side.

[0039] For details regarding the above embodiments, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 2 The bottom of the water collection tank 402 is connected to a fourth connecting pipe 601, and a water storage tank 6 is installed at the end of the fourth connecting pipe 601. Water droplets collected inside the water collection tank 402 flow into the water storage tank 6 through the fourth connecting pipe 601. The water storage tank 6 collects water droplets formed by the condensation of water vapor.

[0040] For details regarding the above embodiments, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 4 The drying tube 5 is equipped with a drying block 503. The drying block 503 is made of 5A molecular sieve material. The drying block 503 adsorbs water molecules in the gas introduced into the drying tube 5, so that the gas discharged from the gas outlet 501 is dry.

[0041] For details regarding the above embodiments, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 4 A sealing plate 502 is movably installed on the top of the drying tube 5, and the sealing plate 502 is fixedly installed on the top of the drying tube 5 by bolts. Personnel can open the sealing plate 502 and replace the drying block 503 inside the drying tube 5 periodically, thereby ensuring the drying effect of the drying tube 5 on the gas.

[0042] For details regarding the above embodiments, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 2 Both the water supply pipe 2 and the cooling pipe 3 are made of aluminum oxide ceramic material. Aluminum oxide ceramic material has good thermal conductivity and insulation, which allows the water with a lower temperature inside the water supply pipe 2 to absorb the heat inside the cooling pipe 3 and the condenser pipe 4.

[0043] Second embodiment:

[0044] Please see Figure 5A set of honeycomb plates 504 are installed at the bottom of the inside of the drying tube 5. The honeycomb plates 504 have a large number of interconnected honeycomb holes. When the gas enters the drying tube 5 through the third connecting pipe 404, the honeycomb plates 504 guide the gas to the surrounding area, thereby increasing the contact area between the gas and the bottom of the drying block 503, making the drying block 503 more efficient at drying the gas.

[0045] In practical operation, the two sets of electrode columns 101 inside the generating tank 1 electrolyze the water inside the generating tank 1, producing oxygen and hydrogen. The gas produced by water electrolysis flows into the cooling pipe 3 through the first connecting pipe 301. Since the cooling pipe 3 is sleeved on the outer wall of the water supply pipe 2, the temperature on the inner wall of the cooling pipe 3 is low, which cools the gas produced. Subsequently, the gas flows into the condenser pipe 4 through the second connecting pipe 302, and then flows upward into the gas collecting tank 403 through the vortex-shaped vent hole 401. During the electrolysis of water by the electrode columns 101, external water is supplied through the water supply pipe. 2. Water is supplied to the generator tank 1. The cool water absorbs the heat inside the vent 401, cooling the gas flowing inside the vent 401. The water vapor in the gas cools and forms small water droplets. The water droplets flow along the vent 401 into the water collection tank 402. The water droplets collected in the water collection tank 402 flow into the water storage tank 6 through the fourth connecting pipe 601. Meanwhile, the gas that has been cooled in the gas collection tank 403 enters the drying tube 5 through the third connecting pipe 404. The drying block 503 in the drying tube 5 absorbs the water molecules in the gas. Finally, the gas is discharged through the gas outlet pipe 501.
