Description

Technical name

[0001] This invention, as shown in Figure 1, extracts cheap hydrogen from water through electrolysis and uses it to power automobiles. Therefore, cheap hydrogen fuel can serve as an alternative to rising gasoline prices, easing the economic burden on citizens struggling with rising gasoline prices. This invention, as described above, allows people to avoid rising gasoline prices and run their cars on cheap hydrogen extracted from water. Furthermore, it addresses frequent traffic congestion by levitating cars from the ground into the air using the repulsive force of "electromagnetic induction" from superconducting magnets. Once levitated, the car is propelled by a "linear drive" mechanism that utilizes the repulsive and attractive forces of the superconducting magnets. This flying car, powered by hydrogen fuel, hydrogen fuel cells, and superconducting maglev, is a new, future-oriented vehicle that we believe will revolutionize human mobility. Countries around the world with scarce gasoline resources, like Japan, have extremely high population densities. Replacing their gasoline-powered vehicles with water-powered vehicles would likely result in enormous profits. Therefore, we believe this invention could become a strategic new export product.

[0002] Electromagnetic induction creates levitation force for cars Superconducting linear trains levitate cars using a phenomenon called "electromagnetic induction," in which an electric current flows through metal when a magnet is moved near it. The induced current is called an "eddy current" because it flows in a vortex shape, as shown in Figure 2. This induced current is subject to Lenz's law. Lenz's law states that eddy currents flow in a direction that opposes changes in the magnetic field. For example, if the north pole of a magnet is brought close to metal, an eddy current flows in a direction that opposes the "north pole." Conversely, if you try to move the north pole of a magnet away from metal, an eddy current is generated that creates a "south pole" that opposes this. In other words, when a magnet is brought close to metal, a "repulsive force" is exerted, and when the magnet is moved away from metal, an "attractive force" is exerted. Therefore, when a car equipped with an electromagnetic induction magnet moves over a superconducting magnet pointed toward the ground, a repulsive force is exerted, causing the car to appear to levitate. Currently, the superconducting material used for superconductivity is an alloy of niobium and titanium (NbTi), as shown in Figure 2, and liquid helium with a boiling point of -269°C is used to cool the superconducting magnet. The magnetic field generated by the superconducting magnet is about 50,000 gauss, which translates to a force of about 1,000 tonnes per square meter, enough to levitate a car. Technical field and driving force of the invention

[0003] So how does a levitated car get its propulsion? Superconducting maglev trains use a "linear drive" mechanism that utilizes the attractive and repulsive forces of magnets. The north pole of a magnetic field is attracted to the south pole, so if the linear magnet installed in the car is a south pole, the linear magnet pointed at the ground can be changed to a north pole, and the car will move forward. As shown in Figure 3, where the north pole of the superconducting maglev train is located, the car will repel the north pole and be attracted to the south pole of the maglev train a little further ahead, causing the car to move forward. After moving a little further, the magnetic pole of the maglev train changes to the opposite, so the car always has a force that moves it forward, and so the car can obtain propulsion. The timing of the magnetic pole switching is automatically controlled by a digitized PC. In other words, a levitated car can obtain propulsion through "linear drive" that utilizes the attractive and repulsive forces of the superconducting magnets. Conventional Technology

[0004] A conventional technology that uses the principle of linear trains is the magnetic levitation train, which involves laying rails and installing a superconducting linear motor on the train, which levitates the train using the phenomenon of electric current flowing through metal due to "electromagnetic induction" on the tracks, so the linear motor is laid on the tracks and the train runs about 10cm above the tracks to reduce friction, but this took a long time and required huge development costs.Magnetic levitation trains are fast, but they cannot fly in the air to avoid traffic jams, nor can they run on ordinary roads, so they cannot solve the serious transportation problems that currently exist. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] To overcome this drawback, the present invention proposes a water-powered vehicle that can be developed using existing gasoline-engine vehicles, reducing development costs. Furthermore, by extracting and supplying cheap hydrogen fuel through water electrolysis instead of soaring gasoline prices, it can alleviate the economic burden on the public struggling with rising gasoline prices. Therefore, a water-powered vehicle can run not only on hydrogen fuel but also on hydrogen fuel cells by combining the extracted hydrogen with oxygen to secure a power source for the hydrogen fuel cell, thereby securing a power source for running on land and flying. Furthermore, by applying the "magnetic induction" principle of the repulsive and attractive forces of superconducting maglev, the water-powered vehicle can be lifted off the ground and fly, avoiding traffic jams. Therefore, a water-powered vehicle can run on hydrogen fuel, hydrogen fuel cells, and superconducting maglev, making it a flying vehicle and a new, futuristic vehicle. We believe it will revolutionize human mobility. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] To put this invention into practical use, first a small, efficient water electrolysis device is installed in a car, development costs are kept down, and an existing gasoline or hybrid car equipped with an engine is used to burn the extracted hydrogen fuel. Since cars can be run using cheap hydrogen fuel extracted from water by electrolysis, there is no need to use expensive gasoline. The mileage of hydrogen fuel is about 10km per liter, which is not much different from gasoline fuel. Since cars can be run using cheap hydrogen fuel extracted from water by electrolysis, there is no need to use expensive gasoline, so people should avoid expensive gasoline and choose cheap hydrogen fuel extracted from water. Therefore, hydrogen can actually be produced by water electrolysis. It is necessary to prototype a water-powered vehicle and make people aware of the benefits of running on cheap hydrogen fuel. Currently, there are cars that run on hydrogen, but these require purchasing hydrogen fuel from an external hydrogen station and supplying it to the car, which requires enormous costs to produce hydrogen. In contrast, a water-powered car has a water electrolysis device installed in the car, which produces cheap hydrogen fuel all day long and stores it in a high-pressure hydrogen fuel storage tank so that it can be used at any time. This eliminates the need to purchase hydrogen fuel from an external source, and has the advantage of being able to run on cheap hydrogen fuel whenever needed. MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

[0007] Instead of gasoline, which is becoming increasingly expensive, cars can be powered by cheap hydrogen fuel extracted from water, eliminating the need to purchase hydrogen fuel from inadequate hydrogen stations. Hydrogen extracted from water can be used as fuel for ground transportation and as a power source for flight. Therefore, water-powered cars can run not only on hydrogen fuel but also on hydrogen fuel cells. Furthermore, by applying the "electromagnetic induction" principle of attraction and repulsion in superconducting linear motors, water-powered cars can be lifted off the ground and fly in the air, avoiding traffic jams. New regulatory and innovative technologies

[0008] While countries around the world are busy developing flying cars equipped with propellers and wings, there are still no flying cars that utilize superconducting maglev. Therefore, the invention of a flying car that utilizes the principles of superconducting maglev can be considered novel. Not only can it run on the ground using cheap hydrogen fuel obtained by electrolysis of water, but the application of superconducting maglev to automobiles is a truly revolutionary technology, based on a new concept that avoids serious traffic congestion. The "repulsive force" and "attractive force" of the "electromagnetic induction" of superconducting magnets lifts the car above the ground, and once lifted, the car gains propulsion through the "linear drive" of the superconducting magnets. This is truly a revolutionary technology that has the potential to transform existing industrial structures, including motorization and transportation systems. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0009] [Figure 1] A cross-section of a hydrogen fuel cell and hydrogen fuel extraction through water electrolysis. Oxygen (O) is generated on the anode side through electrolysis of water, and hydrogen (H2) is extracted on the cathode side. The generated hydrogen is stored in a high-pressure hydrogen fuel tank as fuel, while it is combined with oxygen to power a vehicle's hydrogen fuel cell. In a polymer electrolyte fuel cell, the generated hydrogen splits into two electrons (e-), forming hydrogen ions (H2). The chemical formula is 2H2 → 4H + 4e, generating electricity (4e). When hydrogen and oxygen combine, the anode side produces O2 + 4H++4e → 2H2O, resulting in an overall formula of 2H2 + O2 → 2H2 + O (water). O2 and P1 fuse together through a porous nickel catalyst using platinum (P1), and oxygen ions pass through the electrolyte, combining with hydrogen ions to form water. [Figure 2]Superconducting Maglev creates levitation force for cars. The Superconducting Maglev levitates cars using a phenomenon called "electromagnetic induction," in which an electric current flows through metal when a magnet is moved near it. In this electromagnetic induction, the current flows in a vortex shape according to Lenz's law. When a magnet is brought close to metal, a "repulsive force" is exerted, and when the magnet is moved away from metal, an "attractive force" is exerted. Therefore, when a car equipped with superconducting magnets moves on the Maglev that is directed toward the ground, a repulsive force is exerted, allowing the car to levitate. Currently, the superconducting material used is an alloy of niobium and titanium (NbTi), and liquid helium with a boiling point of -269°C is used to cool the superconducting magnets. The magnetic field generated by the superconducting magnets is about 50,000 gauss, which translates to a force of about 1,000 tons per square meter, enough to levitate a car. The car is lifted off the ground by utilizing the "repulsive" and "attractive" forces of the superconducting magnets, and the superconducting maglev installed on the car reacts to the maglev magnets projected onto the ground by a PC, allowing the car to levitate and fly. The speed, direction, and altitude can be easily controlled by a programmed computer using the maglev's repulsive and attractive forces. [Figure 3] Linear drive guided by superconducting magnets Superconducting maglev trains with alternating superconducting north and south poles are installed on both sides of the exterior of a car that runs on hydrogen from the electrolysis of water, and a superconducting maglev train is installed slightly rearward inside the car, with a PC projecting electromagnetically induced maglev trains toward the ground. The repulsive force of the superconducting maglev train causes the car to rise into the air above the ground, and once lifted, the car is able to obtain propulsion through the principle of superconducting "linear drive." At the location of the north pole of the superconducting maglev train, the car is repelled by the north pole and attracted to the south pole of the maglev train a little further ahead, causing the car to move forward. After moving a little further, the magnetic poles of the maglev train change to the opposite side, so the car always has a force moving forward, and so the car gains propulsion and can fly at high speeds.
