Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to an application technology that utilizes the material properties (magnetoelectric effect) of pure iron. [Background technology]

[0002] Electromagnetic Technology Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0003] Conventional power generation devices or power sources such as batteries had the problem that they could not generate electrical energy continuously unless they were accompanied by "the supply of energy or active substances from outside the device" or "the replacement of active substances inside the device due to consumption." [Means for solving the problem]

[0004] To address this issue, pure iron (iron with very few impurities), which has the material property of being able to convert between electrical energy and magnetic energy, magnetic materials (materials with strong magnetic force, such as neodymium), highly conductive metals such as copper and aluminum, or good carbon-based conductors such as carbon isotopes, are processed into powder or liquid form and mixed in appropriate amounts and ratios to ensure that the constituent materials are evenly distributed. (As long as the chemical composition of the target substance is the same, there is no restriction on its state (solid, liquid, etc.). This mixture is sealed inside a power generation device, where the mixture is in a state where magnetic force is generated and electricity is generated simultaneously (a state where electrical energy and magnetic energy are mutually converted). This method of generating electricity by utilizing the chemical reaction (energy interconversion) of this "mixture of pure iron, magnetic material, and good conductor" solves the problems that existed with conventional power sources such as power generation devices and batteries. Furthermore, this method can be used not only for power generation devices (power sources) but also for magnetic generators and room temperature superconducting devices.

Claims

1. Iron with very few impurities and high purity is called pure iron and is used for applications such as electromagnets. This material has the following material properties: "When voltage is applied (current is passed through it), it becomes magnetized (magnetic force is generated), and when magnetic force is applied (it is placed in a magnetic field), it generates an electromotive force." This means that pure iron has the ability to convert between electrical energy and magnetic energy. This pure iron, magnetic materials (substances (compounds) with strong magnetic force such as neodymium magnets), highly conductive metals such as copper and aluminum, or good carbon-based conductors such as carbon allotropes are processed into powder or liquid form and mixed in appropriate amounts and ratios to ensure that the constituent materials are evenly distributed. (As long as the chemical composition of the target substance is the same, there is no restriction on the state, such as solid or liquid.) This mixture is enclosed within a power generating device. The mixture then enters a state in which magnetism (magnetic field generation) and electricity (electric power generation) occur simultaneously within the device (a state in which electrical energy and magnetic energy are mutually converted). This is a method of generating electricity by utilizing the chemical reaction (energy interconversion) of this "mixture of pure iron, magnetic material, and good conductor." When this mixture having power generation function is used as a power source for various electric engines, machines, products, etc. that are powered by electrical energy (electric power) or controlled by electrical signals (current), there are no restrictions on the state of the mixture, such as solid or liquid, and there are also no restrictions on the dimensions, shape, or material of the outer frame of the power generation device (battery, etc.) in which the mixture is enclosed. Furthermore, the case where the mixture is not sealed in a power generating device but is made into a solution and is directly applied to the inside of an electric machine, an electrical appliance, etc. like a paint, and is used by connecting it to an electric wire, circuit, etc. is also included. Furthermore, this power generation method can be used not only as a power source for extracting electrical energy, but also as a magnetic source (magnetic field) for extracting magnetic energy.

2. A method that uses the same principle as the method described in claim 1 (a power generation method that utilizes the mutual conversion of electrical energy and magnetic energy), but that does not use "magnetic materials (materials with strong magnetic force) such as neodymium magnets" out of the three types of materials used as a power source (magnetic source), and instead uses only two types of materials: "pure iron (metal with material properties as an electromagnet)" and "highly conductive metals such as copper and aluminum, or good carbon-based conductors such as carbon allotropes," and that uses an external power source or magnetic source in the manufacturing process of the power generation device, thereby realizing a power generation function (power generation action) similar to that of the method described in claim 1. "Pure iron (a metal with the material properties of an electromagnet)" and "highly conductive metals such as copper or aluminum, or good carbon-based conductors such as carbon allotropes" are processed into powder or liquid form and mixed in the appropriate amounts and ratios to ensure that the constituent materials are balanced. This mixture is enclosed in a power generating device, and is temporarily supplied with electrical energy from an external power source (energized), or with magnetic energy from an external magnetic source (placed in a magnetic field). The mixture then enters a state in which magnetism (magnetic field generation) and electricity (electric power generation) occur simultaneously within the device (a state in which electrical energy and magnetic energy are mutually converted). In this way, the mixture does not contain "magnetic materials (substances with strong magnetic force) such as neodymium magnets," but rather uses a chemical reaction (energy interconversion action) of a "mixture of pure iron and a good conductor," which achieves a chemical reaction (energy interconversion action) similar to that described in claim 1 and is used for power generation. When this mixture with power generation function is equipped as a power source for various electric engines, machines, products, etc. that are powered by electrical energy (electric power) or controlled by electrical signals (current), there are no restrictions on the state of the mixture (solid, liquid, etc.), and there are no restrictions on the dimensions, shape, or material of the outer frame of the power generation device (battery, etc.) in which the mixture is enclosed. Furthermore, the case where the mixture is not sealed in a power generating device but is made into a solution and is directly applied to the inside of an electric machine, an electrical appliance, etc. like a paint, and is used by connecting it to an electric wire, circuit, etc. is also included. Furthermore, this power generation method can be used not only as a power source for extracting electrical energy, but also as a magnetic source (magnetic field) for extracting magnetic energy.

3. A method that uses the same principle as the method described in claim 1 (a power generation method that utilizes the mutual conversion of electrical energy and magnetic energy), but that does not use "pure iron (a metal that has the material properties of an electromagnet)" out of the three types of materials used as the power source (magnetic source), and instead uses only two types of materials: "magnetic materials (materials with strong magnetic force) such as neodymium magnets" and "highly conductive metals such as copper and aluminum, or good carbon-based conductors such as carbon allotropes," and that uses an external power source or magnetic source in the manufacturing process of the power generation device, thereby realizing a power generation function (power generation action) similar to that of the method described in claim 1. "Magnetic materials (substances with strong magnetic force) such as neodymium magnets" and "highly conductive metals such as copper and aluminum, or good carbon-based conductors such as carbon allotropes" are processed into powder or liquid form and mixed in appropriate amounts and ratios to ensure that the constituent materials are balanced. This mixture is enclosed in a power generating device, and is temporarily supplied with electrical energy from an external power source (energized), or with magnetic energy from an external magnetic source (placed in a magnetic field). The mixture then enters a state in which magnetism (magnetic field generation) and electricity (electric power generation) occur simultaneously within the device (a state in which electrical energy and magnetic energy are mutually converted). In this way, instead of using "pure iron (a metal with the material properties of an electromagnet)" in the mixture, a chemical reaction (energy mutual exchange action) similar to that of the method described in claim 1 is realized by using "a mixture of a magnetic material such as a neodymium magnet and a good conductor" and is used for power generation. When this mixture having power generation function is used as a power source for various electric engines, machines, products, etc. that are powered by electrical energy (electric power) or controlled by electrical signals (current), there are no restrictions on the state of the mixture, such as solid or liquid, and there are also no restrictions on the dimensions, shape, or material of the outer frame of the power generation device (battery, etc.) in which the mixture is enclosed. Furthermore, the case where the mixture is not sealed in a power generating device but is made into a solution and is directly applied to the inside of an electric machine, an electrical appliance, etc. like a paint, and is used by connecting it to an electric wire, circuit, etc. is also included. This power generation method can be used not only as a power source but also as a magnetic source. In the methods described in claims 1 and 2, pure iron (a material having the material properties of an electromagnet) converts electrical energy and magnetic energy, but in the method described in claim 3, pure iron is not used, and this energy conversion function is performed by a magnetic material (a material having a strong magnetic force, such as a neodymium magnet). Magnetic materials are used as permanent magnets. It has a strong magnetic force even without the need for an electric current. However, when a voltage is applied (current is passed through) to a magnetic body (permanent magnet), a phenomenon occurs in which the magnetic force increases more than usual (magnetic energy is amplified). When a strong magnetic force is applied (placed in a strong magnetic field), the generation of electrical energy (power generation phenomenon) occurs. This shows that although magnetic force and power generation are not as pronounced as in electromagnets (such as pure iron), magnetic materials (permanent magnets) also have the ability to convert electrical energy and magnetic energy. Therefore, the method according to claim 3 also makes it possible to generate electricity by utilizing the mutual energy exchange action.

4. In the methods described in claims 1, 2, and 3, electricity is generated by a chemical reaction of the mixture (interconversion between electrical energy and magnetic energy), but the chemical reaction occurring within the device does not result in 100% interconversion between electrical energy and magnetic energy. Within the device, electrical energy is generated and transmitted to good conductors, and as it circulates, a portion of it is converted into thermal energy rather than magnetic energy. If thermal energy other than electrical energy and magnetic energy is generated in the mixture in the device (if it is converted into thermal energy), the power generation efficiency (electrical energy generation efficiency) as a power source will decrease. To address this issue, the original mixtures (three types: pure iron, magnetic material, and good conductor, pure iron and good conductor, and magnetic material and good conductor) were mixed with appropriate amounts of powdered or liquid-form substances with pyroelectric effects (the ability to convert electrical energy into thermal energy and vice versa), such as pyroelectrics, organic compounds, and earth and stone, and then mixed together to ensure that the constituent materials were balanced. This allows the thermal energy generated in each of the initial mixtures (three types) to be converted into electrical energy, thereby improving power generation efficiency (electrical energy generation efficiency). By incorporating a substance with this pyroelectric effect, a circulation effect is achieved in which magnetic energy and thermal energy are converted into electrical energy, and electrical energy is converted into magnetic energy and thermal energy, thereby suppressing a decrease in the power generation efficiency (electrical energy generation efficiency) of the power generation device.

5. A power generation device or power supply using the method according to any one of claims 1 to 4.

6. A magnetic field generating device and a room temperature superconducting device using the method according to any one of claims 1 to 4.

7. A power generation device, a power source, a magnetic field generating device, a power generation facility, a transportation facility, a defense equipment, a manufacturing machine, a construction machine, an agricultural machine, or a radioactive waste storage facility, all of which use the room-temperature superconducting device according to claim 5 or claim 6.
