Description

Energy-saving devices through power optimization

[0001] The present invention relates to an energy-saving device through power optimization, and more specifically, to a device that saves energy using tourmaline powder.

[0002] The material presented in this section only provides background information for the present invention and does not constitute prior art.

[0003] Recently, due to environmental issues and the depletion of energy resources, research into alternative energy sources to replace coal and oil is actively underway. For example, research is actively underway on the development and efficient utilization of energy sources such as nuclear, wind, tidal, and solar energy.

[0004] However, while thermal energy from coal, oil, and nuclear power is utilized directly, an increasing amount of thermal energy is being converted into electrical energy. Furthermore, wind, solar, and tidal power cannot be used directly and must be converted into electrical energy through wind, solar, and tidal power generation.

[0005] Therefore, it can be said that most of the energy is converted into electrical energy and used for the convenience of human use.

[0006] Electric energy consumption is increasing every year, and the price of electricity supply is also on the rise due to rising prices of fossil fuels. Consequently, various efforts are underway to conserve electricity for socioeconomic reasons. In particular, the development of energy-saving products, improvements in transmission processes, and energy-saving devices that can reduce power consumption are receiving significant attention.

[0007] In relation to such energy-saving devices and methods, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 4-261355 discloses a power-saving method using far-infrared rays. This technology involves installing a ceramic ore that emits far-infrared rays in the base of a motor to suppress the generation of a resistive load due to the heat generated by the motor, thereby saving electricity. In addition, Korean Patent Laid-Open No. 2002-0028862 describes a method of supplying far-infrared rays emitted from a far-infrared radiator, such as mica or diamond, to an electric line and saving electricity by maximizing the resonance absorption effect.

[0008] However, these conventional technologies all utilize far-infrared rays, which require the generation of far-infrared rays within a certain wavelength range (8–11 μm). If the amount of far-infrared rays generated falls below a certain level, the resulting energy-saving effects are problematic. For example, when a mineral such as the aforementioned mica was pulverized and coated within a box of a certain size, the resulting far-infrared rays were unsatisfactory, and the resulting energy-saving effects were also unsatisfactory.

[0009] In this regard, Korean Patent Publication No. 10-0419312 discloses an energy-saving device, which provides a ceramic layer made of mica or the like on the inner wall of the device that emits rotating electromagnetic waves, and installs an internal cover plate inside the device that repeatedly absorbs and emits the rotating electromagnetic waves emitted from the ceramic layer to cause a resonance absorption action. The Korean patent adopts a method in which the rotating electromagnetic waves emitted from the ceramic layer are converted into far-infrared rays in free space, and the far-infrared rays cause a resonance absorption action (repeated reflection and absorption) between the ceramic layer of the inner wall of the housing and the ceramic layer of the inner cover plate to increase the amount of rotating electromagnetic waves (i.e., far-infrared rays) generated. However, this too is not satisfactory in increasing the amount of far-infrared rays generated, and the power-saving effect is minimal, so it does not exhibit a power-saving effect that is commercially useful.

[0010] Therefore, conventional power-saving devices and methods using far-infrared rays had problems that needed to be improved.

[0011] Meanwhile, power can be defined as the product of current, voltage, and power factor. Therefore, improving current flow and reducing current values ​​can lead to power savings.

[0012] Taking this into account, the inventors devised a new material and device capable of improving the flow of current. Specifically, the inventors realized that utilizing the mineral tourmaline, which possesses permanent electrical properties, could improve the movement and flow of electrons.

[0013] Accordingly, the inventor of the present invention devised a device that can save power by improving the movement and flow of electrons using a mixture of tourmaline mineral with permanent electrical properties and permanent magnet powder with permanent magnetic properties.

[0014] The problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide an energy-saving device that can prevent corrosion of a conductive plate due to moisture contained in a tourmaline mixture layer.

[0015] The problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide an energy-saving device that can further activate the formation of a magnetic field in a tourmaline mixture layer.

[0016] The problems to be solved by the present invention are not limited to the problems mentioned above, and other problems not mentioned will be clearly understood by those skilled in the art from the description below.

[0018] Additionally, the energy saving device may be configured to include at least one permanent magnet embedded in the EMF-7 layer and arranged around the conductive plate.

[0019] Additionally, the energy saving device may further include a wire that is electrically connected to the conductive plate at one end and extends out of the housing at the other end, and the wire may be configured to be electrically connected to a power bus that receives power from an electrical device including a circuit.

[0020] In addition, the energy-saving device may be configured such that, when the power source of the electric device is a single-phase, two-wire system, two unit modules of the energy-saving device are individually provided to each of two power buses and electrically connected; when the power source of the electric device is a three-phase, three-wire system, three unit modules of the energy-saving device are individually provided to each of three power buses and electrically connected; and when the power source of the electric device is a three-phase, four-wire system, four unit modules of the energy-saving device are individually provided to each of four power buses and electrically connected.

[0024] According to the present invention, the movement and flow of electrons can be improved by using a tourmaline mineral having permanent electrical properties and a permanent magnet.

[0063] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the relevant drawings.

[0064] Hereinafter, a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the attached drawings.

[0065] Meanwhile, the principle of energy saving of an energy saving device through power optimization according to one embodiment of the present invention is explained as follows.

[0066] Figure 1a is a schematic diagram of an energy-saving device according to one embodiment of the present invention.

[0067] Referring to FIG. 1a, an energy saving device (100) according to one embodiment of the present invention may include two types of material layers, for example, an EMF-6 layer and an EMF-7 layer, inside a housing.

[0068] The interior of the housing may be composed of a first metal or may be plated with a first metal. The first metal may include zinc or another metal.

[0069] The EMF-6 layer can be divided and placed above and below the EMF-7 layer located in the middle, and an ionosphere, for example, a copper plate layer, can be placed at the boundary between the EMF-6 layer and the EMF-7 layer.

[0070] The EMF-7 layer is a tourmaline mixture layer, which is the middle layer and can be composed of tourmaline powder, permanent magnet powder, and moisture. When the powdered tourmaline crystals come into contact with moisture, the moisture instantly electrolyzes, generating electrons.

[0071] The EMF-6 layer is a layer that emits negative ions and may be composed of a powder of a mineral containing negative ions. In the conventional technology, the EMF-6 layer is composed of morganite powder, but this may emit negative ions that are harmful to the human body. Therefore, in the present invention, the EMF-6 layer may be composed of a mixture of tourmaline powder, permanent magnet powder, and moisture, which are the same components as the EMF-7 layer. The EMF-6 layer is a mineral layer that emits negative ions and indirectly contributes to improving the movement and flow of electrons by releasing negative ions.

[0072] The EMF-7 layer can be embedded with a conductive plate made of a first metal, such as copper. The conductive plate has the function of inducing the flow of electrons, or current, into an external circuit.

[0073] The ionosphere made of conductive metal is in close contact with the tourmaline mixture layer as described above and functions as both metal plates used in the condenser. Therefore, the ionosphere induces a charging phenomenon of positive and negative charges and plays a role in charging and discharging electrons generated by the tourmaline mixture layer. Accordingly, the electrons generated by the tourmaline mixture are charged and then discharged by the ionosphere's condenser function, so that the inside of the device has conductive properties and conducts between the charging materials inside the device and the external input terminal through the conductive plates. Accordingly, when the energy-saving device of the present invention is connected to a power terminal, distribution board, or circuit breaker that supplies power, the current flow is improved and the power consumption is reduced.

[0074] An energy-saving device through power optimization according to one embodiment of the present invention is based on the pyroelectric function of tourmaline. The pyroelectric function of tourmaline and related research will be described below.

[0075] The degree of activation of water can be predicted by measuring the infrared absorption and transmittance of the OH groups of tourmaline and water to test the superconducting function of tourmaline. Usually, the infrared absorption peak of free OH groups without hydrogen bonds is between 3600 and 3650 cm-1 It appears sharply at , and the hydrogen bond OH absorption band is at 3300 to 3400 cm -1 It appears as a broad peak in , and is summarized in Figure 1b.

[0076] Figure 1b shows the infrared absorption band of the OH group according to frequency.

[0077] The tourmaline crystal structure was first proposed by Donny and Buer in 1950. In the study according to the present invention, the particle size (mesh) according to the milling time will be calculated using the Sherrer equation based on X-ray diffraction spectroscopy experiments compared with the results of scanning electron microscope analysis.

[0078] Particle size and Ce of tourmaline powder sample 3+ ions and Ce 4+ The function of the energy-saving device of tourmaline powder sample can be predicted through infrared spectroscopy experiments, which show changes in pyroelectric properties due to the addition of rare earth metal atoms, magnetic materials, and moisture, including ions.

[0079] The X-ray diffraction pattern (X-ray power diffraction pattern: X-ray source: CuKa monochromatic radiation) of tourmaline powder samples used in energy-saving devices was measured using a Bruker AXS diffractometer. When synthesizing tourmaline powder samples, the synthesized material will be confirmed by comparing the shape and position of the peaks calculated by LAZY-PULVERIX, a computer program, with the data obtained from the crystal structure of a single crystal.

[0080] The morphology of tourmaline powder samples was measured using a scanning electron microscope (SEM) using the following procedure. The samples were fixed to SEM stubs using double-sided copper tape and coated with 20 nm of Au using an Anatech sputter coater. The tubular shape was obtained using a scanning electron microscope, Phillips 505 microscope. The surface morphology of the tourmaline powder samples was observed using SEM cross-sectional photographs. In addition, the presence of atomic Na, Ca, Mg, Al, Fe, Mn, Si, and atomic O was confirmed through energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) analysis (Kevex Super 8000 microanalyzer), and the surface component distribution and particle size of the tourmaline powder samples were investigated. Spectroscopic measurements of tourmaline powder samples were performed using a Bruker Optik GMBH IFS-66 / S (Germany), a spectrofluorimeter equipped with a Cary emission, an Oriel emission monochromator, and an Oriel 350-W Xe lamp. The sample for measuring optical properties was a tourmaline powder sample directly used in an energy-saving device, and the infrared region of light converted by a Fourier transform infrared spectrometer was irradiated onto the solid sample to measure the intrinsic absorption, transmittance, and reflectance of the sample.

[0081] <FTIR 분석방법>

[0082] The analysis sample was placed on the Si / ZnSe Crystal of the ATR unit and fixed using a Miracle micrometer clamp. Then, the OPUS Version 6.0 program was used to analyze the sample at a frequency of 400 to 4000 cm -1 , resolution 4 cm -1, the data were analyzed twice per sample under the condition of 64 injections, and if the analysis spectra were similar, the analyzed data were used.

[0083] The crystal structure of tourmaline was first proposed by Donny and Buer in 1950. Tourmaline, (Na, Ca)(Li, Mg, Al)3(Al, Fe, Mn)6(BO3)3Si6O 27 The unit cell of (OH, F)4 is Rhombohedral, and the space group is R. 3m . Since the research related to the present invention focuses on pyroelectricity, the dipole change due to vibration and rotation based on the molecular structure (local structure) rather than the global structure of the tourmaline crystal expressed as a unit cell and space group (4,000 to 400 cm -1 ; 2.5 to 25 μm), it is about the energy in the infrared region. Therefore, the molecular structure, Si6O 18 The rings are arranged on a 3-fold axis in a ring shape, and the 3 groups of BO3 are also arranged on the axis in sequence. Li, Mg, and Al are located at the octahedral centers with four O and two F and OH, and Al, Fe, and Mn are located at the octahedral centers with five O and one F and OH. The above two 6-coordinate bonds form Si6O 18 The columns of rings made of BO3 are interconnected, and Na and Ca are located in the space between the 3-fold axes.

[0084] The results of XRD (X-ray diffraction), SEM (Scanning electron microscopy), and EDX (Energy dispersive X-ray spectriscopic analyses) analysis compared with the reference data of the powder sample are as shown in Fig. 2.

[0085] Figure 2 shows the results of 1) SEM, 2) EDX, 3) XRD, and 4) Standard XRD analyses.

[0086] Figure 3a shows XRD analysis data, and Figure 3b shows EDX analysis data.

[0087] Ferrite crystal structure generally has a body-centered cubic lattice and is a mixed powder of ferrite metal oxides represented by the general formula MO·6Fe2O3. XRD and EDX analysis data are shown in Figures 3a and 3b, respectively, and the analysis results confirmed that the metal M is Sr and Ba atoms. Therefore, these are oxide-based magnetic materials, and the standard composition is SrO·6Fe2O3 or BaO·6Fe2O3, and the crystal structure is a magnetoplumbite type hexagonal crystal with the c-axis being the axis of easy magnetization.

[0088] Tourmaline's crystal structure is a polar material, exhibiting both piezoelectric and pyroelectric properties. The point group of the tourmaline crystal structure is '3m'. Figure 4 systematically charts the pyroelectric properties according to the point group, and subsequent infrared experiments and analysis confirm this.

[0089] Figure 4 is a classification diagram of superelectric characteristics according to point cloud.

[0090] Infrared Analysis

[0091] Tourmaline is so named because it generates static electricity when heated or rubbed. This property is called pyroelectricity. The infrared analysis results are shown in Figure 5.

[0092] Figure 5 depicts the FTIR patterns of 1) tourmaline with added water (H2O) and 2) tourmaline, respectively.

[0093] Figure 6 depicts the FTIR patterns of energy-saving devices of tourmaline and tourmaline+H2O, respectively.

[0094] Referring to Fig. 6, Fig. 6 shows the FT-IR spectra for the tourmaline powder sample crystals. Based on the structure confirmed by EDX and XRD, the FT-IR spectra at 900 to 1,200 cm -1 The peak is O-Si-O bond ([SiO4] 4- ) and was derived from the vibration of 400 to 800 cm -1 The peak of MO bond ([Fe2O4] 2- ) vibration, 1,200 to 1,450 cm -1 The peak of BO bond ([BO3] 3- ) and vibrations of 3,000 to 3,600 cm -1 The peak is a result of the vibration of the OH bond (-OH). The FT-IR spectra of the tourmaline powder sample are formed by the trigonal (3m) molecular structure within the crystal.

[0095] Figure 6 shows an infrared spectroscopy experiment, in which the infrared spectra of a pure tourmaline powder sample (2) in Figure 5) and the infrared spectra of a mixture of tourmaline powder sample and water (H2O) in a power-saving device (1) were simultaneously compared and analyzed. The far-infrared rays and electric field of the added moisture affected the higher surface electric field due to the reduced particle size of the tourmaline powder sample, resulting in higher pyroelectric properties. High activation of the tourmaline powder sample by moisture was confirmed.

[0096] The above general infrared analysis confirmed that the added water was activated by tourmaline.

[0097] Therefore, the superconductivity of tourmaline and the activation of water by tourmaline were confirmed by the increase of tourmaline for a certain amount of water, and on the other hand, by the increase of water for a certain amount of tourmaline. In particular, the superconductivity of tourmaline was confirmed by the increase of water for a certain amount of tourmaline. -1 The peak is a result of the vibration of the OH bond, so it has a frequency of 3,000 to 4,000 cm-1 The peak in was analyzed by changing the transmittance (T; Fig. 7) to the absorption (A = 1 -T / 100; Fig. 8). In this graph, the X-axis is frequency (wave number; cm -1 ), and the Y-axis is (%) transmittance and (%) absorbance.

[0098] Figure 7 depicts the infrared spectral transmittance with increasing tourmaline content on the left, and the infrared spectral transmittance with increasing water volume using 5 g of tourmaline on the right.

[0099] Figure 8 depicts the infrared spectral absorbance as the amount of tourmaline increases in water at 0.5 g on the left, and the infrared spectral absorbance as the amount of water increases using 5 g of tourmaline on the right.

[0100] Figure 9 depicts the infrared spectral absorbance as the amount of tourmaline increases in 0.5 g of water.

[0101] Figure 10 depicts the absorbance of the infrared spectrum as the amount of water increases in 5 g of tourmaline.

[0102] In order to more accurately analyze the position and intensity of the peak for the infrared absorption rate of Fig. 8, fitting was performed using the Origin 8.0 program as shown in Figs. 9 and 10.

[0103] Through the analysis of Figures 7, 8, 9 and 10, the frequency of 3559 cm, which originated from the tourmaline powder sample with three hydroxyl groups (OH), -1 Two peaks, 3410 cm, originating from the peak of the water decomposition process -1 Wow 3222 cm -1 was separated into

[0104] Figure 11 depicts the peak area of ​​infrared spectral absorbance with increasing amounts of tourmaline in 0.5 g of water.

[0105] In Fig. 11, the mass of the tourmaline sample with 0.5g H2O was increased in the order of 0g, 3g, 6g, 10g, and 12g, and the values ​​were 3559 cm -1 , 3410 cm -1 Wow 3222 cm -1 The peak area was calculated and plotted to show trends of increase and decrease. The graph confirmed that the area increased and then decreased as the amount of tourmaline increased.

[0106] Finally, the mass of 5 g tourmaline was fixed, and the amount of water was increased to 0.5 g H2O, 1 g H2O, and 2 g H2O. The experimental results are as shown in Fig. 12a. The X-axis represents the amount of water, and the peak positions and peak areas were compared. The peak positions had little correlation with the amount of water, and the peak area increased as the amount of water increased.

[0107] Figure 12a depicts the infrared spectral peak positions and area absorbances as the amount of water increases in 5 g of tourmaline (3559 cm-1 (red square), 3410 cm-1 (green circle), 3222 cm-1 (blue triangle)).

[0108] Figure 12b depicts the pyroelectric and chemical formula of a sample constituting an energy-saving device.

[0109] The infrared absorption peak of the free OH group without a typical hydrogen bond, summarized in Figure 12b, is 3600 to 3650 cm -1 It appears sharply at , and the hydrogen bond OH absorption band is 3300 to 340 cm -1 Applying our findings on the broad peak in , the infrared absorption peak of OH stretching in tourmaline is at 3590 cm -1 It was located at 3410 cm and showed the characteristic infrared absorption peak of more free OH stretching. The remaining two peaks were 3410 cm -1 Wow 3222 cm -1was consistent with the characteristics of hydrogen bonding. 3410 cm -1 3222 cm above peak -1 As the peak shows stronger hydrogen bonding characteristics, 3222 cm -1 Hydroxygen ion-OH(H3O2) with high probability of peak hydrogen bonding - ) was analyzed.

[0110] The structure of the tourmaline powder sample was analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray (EDX), and X-ray diffraction (XRD), and the pyroelectric properties related to the structure were compared and analyzed using infrared spectroscopy. The results of the tourmaline powder sample analysis were confirmed by scanning electron microscopy, thin film X-ray diffraction, and fluorescence analysis.

[0111] As a result of X-ray diffraction analysis, the X-ray pattern and peak positions of the tourmaline raw sample were consistent with those of the tourmaline powder sample, and the particle size of the 1,000 mesh powder sample varied greatly from 10 nm to 10 μm according to the scanning electron microscope analysis. The calculation results according to the crystal grain size could be compared with the results of the fluorescence measurement experiment, the scanning electron microscope photograph, and the reference data. As a result, through the pyroelectricity experiment of tourmaline by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy experiment, it was confirmed that the surface area increased with the decrease in the tourmaline particle size and the pyroelectric properties were higher. In the above experiment, the chemical formula of tourmaline, which plays an electrical role, is (Na + , Ca 2+ , K + )(Ti 4+ , Fe 3+ , Fe 2+ )(Al 3+ , Mg 2+ )6(SiO3)6(BO3)3(OH - , F -)4, and the chemical formula of the ferrite that plays a magnetic role is hexagonal magnetoplumbite type SrO·6Fe2O3 and BaO·6Fe2O3 (Sr / Ba = 49 / 6). The tourmaline used here is a natural ore and is judged to have a lot of impurities, and the EDX analyzer used in this experiment has limitations in analyzing atoms with an atomic weight lower than boron (B) atoms. If necessary, an inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometer (ESPM) owned by Chungnam National University, KAIST, and the Korea Research Institute of Chemical Technology can be used to confirm Li and B atoms with a lower atomic weight, and a more desirable experimental design is required. Through the above spectroscopic experimental results and literature review, the pyroelectricity and chemical formula of the main samples constituting the energy-saving device of the present invention are summarized in Fig. 12b.

[0112] As already known from the literature, tourmaline crystals continuously generate a weak electric current, causing them to instantly electrolyze water when it comes into contact with water. In experiments, tourmaline electrolyzes water added to it. This electrolysis transforms it into activated water.

[0113] Figure 13 is a schematic diagram of the formation of hydronium and hydroxyl ions by electrolysis of water.

[0114] Figure 13 shows the hydrogen gas that appears during the electrolysis process of H2O by tourmaline, and the structure of himdronium and hydroxyl. Therefore, tourmaline ore or powder instantly discharges water when it comes into contact with moisture. In this process, water is electrolyzed, and water molecules (H2O) are converted into hydrogen ions (H3O). + ) and hydroxide ion (H3O 2- ) are separated. The separated hydrogen ions (H + ) is attracted to the negative electrode and combines with the electrons released there, becoming neutralized and evaporating as hydrogen gas (H2). Also, hydroxide ions (HO -) combines with surrounding water molecules to form hydroxyl (H3O 2- ) becomes a surfactant called anion. In the previous company's experiment, it was confirmed that the water in the test tube was alkalized (pH increased) together with tourmaline powder. Figure 13 shows the results of three infrared spectroscopy experiments (3559 cm -1 , 3410 cm -1 Wow 3222 cm -1 Peak) was systematically drawn by interpreting it. 3559 cm -1 , 3410 cm -1 Wow 3222 cm -1 The peak is due to tourmaline, and the remaining two peaks, 3410 cm -1 Wow 3222 cm -1 The peaks are likely hydronium or hydroxyl ions, requiring more precise analysis. Furthermore, the addition of water (H2O) to the tourmaline powder sample spontaneously activated its pyroelectric properties. This property can be applied as a nanomaterial property in energy-saving devices, and tourmaline powder samples with pyroelectric properties can provide fundamental information on current supply, which directly contributes to energy savings.

[0115] The above three infrared spectroscopy experimental results (3559 cm -1 , 3410 cm -1 Wow 3222 cm -1 In order to interpret the peak), Fig. 14 can be drawn by referring to the literature of Nemethy, Bour and Starzak groups. Therefore, by synthesizing Fig. 13 and Fig. 14, the OH group of tourmaline, which is completely free from hydrogen bonding, is at 3559 cm -1 In , hydroxyl (H3O2) has a higher possibility of hydrogen bonding - ) The OH group of the anion is 3222 cm -1 In , molecules of water (H2O) or hydrogen ions (H3O + ) OH group is 3410 cm -1It was judged that infrared rays would be strongly absorbed at the peak.

[0116] Figure 14 is a schematic representation of the energy levels for molecules in liquid water.

[0117] Hereinafter, an energy saving device (100) through power optimization according to one embodiment of the present invention based on the infrared absorption model of the OH group will be described.

[0118] The structure and function of the energy saving device (100) according to the first and second embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 15 to 18.

[0119] Fig. 15 is a cross-sectional view of an energy saving device (100) according to a first embodiment of the present invention.

[0120] Referring to FIG. 15, an energy saving device (100) according to a first embodiment of the present invention may be configured to include an EMF-6 layer (50a, 50b) and an EMF-7 layer (20) and an ionosphere (30a, 30b), which correspond to two types of material layers, inside a housing (10).

[0121] The housing (10) may be configured to include a cover (12) and a case (14). The cover (12) and the case (14) are connected via a hinge or the like to form a boundary (16). The inner surface of the housing (10) may include a first metal or may be coated with a first metal, for example, zinc.

[0122] The EMF-7 layer (20) is arranged in the internal space of the housing (10) and has the function of generating a flow of electrons. The EMF-7 layer (20) may be configured to include a mixture of tourmaline powder, permanent magnet powder, and water (H2O) as a tourmaline mixture layer. The electrons originate from the OH group included in the tourmaline mixture.

[0123] The EMF-6 layer (50) can be placed above and below the EMF-7 layer (20). The EMF-6 layer (50) is placed separately from the EMF-7 layer (20) and has the function of providing electrons to the EMF-7 layer (20).

[0124] The ionosphere (30) may be composed of a second metal, for example, copper, forming the boundary between the EMF-7 layer (20) and the EMF-6 layer (50). Electrons in the EMF-6 layer (50) can move to the EMF-7 layer (20) through the ionosphere (30). Copper corresponding to the ionosphere (30) also plays a role in providing electrons through electrolysis.

[0125] The conductive plate (40) can be embedded in the EMF-7 layer (20). The conductive plate (40) has the function of inducing the flow of electrons in a circuit connected to the outer wire portion (60b) formed on the outer surface of the housing (10).

[0126] According to conventional technology, the conductive plate (40) is composed of a metal with excellent electrical conductivity, for example, copper. However, the EMF-7 layer (20) is characterized by containing a large amount of water as a tourmaline mixture layer. Therefore, there was a problem that the conductive plate (40) embedded in the EMF-7 layer (20) could easily corrode due to moisture. The energy-saving device (100) according to the first embodiment of the present invention is characterized by using graphite instead of the existing copper as a material for the conductive plate (40), which is a component, thereby preventing corrosion due to moisture contained in the EMF-7 layer (20) while maintaining high electrical conductivity.

[0127] The terminal (70) connecting the inner part of the wire (60a) and the conductive plate (40) must be tightened tightly so that no gap is created.

[0128] The wire holder (62) is used to finish the outer portion of the wire (60b) on the outer surface of the case (14). It is preferable that the wire holder (62) be of a size that matches the outer portion of the wire (60b). When connecting the case (14) of the housing (10) and the outer portion of the wire (60b), a sealing finish using silicone or adhesive is required to prevent internal moisture from escaping to the outside.

[0129] Fig. 16 is a cross-sectional view of an energy saving device (100) according to a second embodiment of the present invention.

[0130] Referring to FIG. 16, the EMF-7 layer (20) may be configured to further include permanent magnets (90) embedded in the tourmaline mixture. That is, at least one permanent magnet (90) may be embedded in the EMF-7 layer (20) and may be arranged around the conductive plate (40). For example, the permanent magnets (90) may be arranged on the upper and lower portions of the conductive plate (40).

[0131] Fig. 17 is a perspective view of the energy saving device (100) depicted in Fig. 16 of the present invention.

[0132] Fig. 18 is a perspective view of another energy-saving device (100) according to a second embodiment of the present invention.

[0133] Referring to FIGS. 17 and 18, the positions of the permanent magnets (90) are depicted. The permanent magnets (90) may be positioned on the upper and lower sides of the conductive plate (40) as in FIG. 17, or may be positioned on the side of the conductive plate (40) as in FIG. 18.

[0134] The permanent magnet (90) is a component for enhancing the performance of the permanent magnet powder included in the tourmaline mixture layer corresponding to the EMF-7 layer (20). It is characterized by the fact that when the magnetic field emitted by the permanent magnet (90) is utilized, the flow of electrons based on the OH group can be further activated.

[0135] The inner part (60a) of the wire (60), which corresponds to one end of the wire, is electrically connected to the conductive plate (40), and the outer part (60b) of the wire, which corresponds to the other end, can be drawn out of the housing (10). The wire (60) can be configured to be electrically connected to a power bus that receives power from an electrical device including a circuit.

[0136] It can be configured to include a housing (10), a tourmaline mixture layer which is a mixture layer of tourmaline powder, permanent magnet powder and water (H2O) accommodated inside the housing (10), an ionosphere (30) of conductive metal positioned above and below the tourmaline mixture layer inside the housing (10), an EMF-6 layer (50) positioned on the upper and lower inner walls of the housing (10), a conductive plate (40) positioned while embedded in the tourmaline mixture layer, and a permanent magnet (90) positioned around the conductive plate (40).

[0137] The housing (10) may be composed of a cover (12) and a case (14) that can be separated and combined with each other. The cover (12) and the case (14) according to one embodiment of the present invention may be joined using solder, welding, or an adhesive, and although not specifically illustrated, they may be joined using screws after forming female screws at corresponding portions of each corner of the cover (12) and the case (14).

[0138] In the housing (10), the cover (12) and the case (14) may be formed of a waterproof and dustproof material. For example, the cover (12) and the case (14) may be formed of a material such as iron, aluminum, or plastic. However, it is preferable to use a non-conductor material due to insulation and stability, and it is more preferable to use a plastic material. For example, it is most preferable that the cover (12) and the case (14) be formed of PC / ABS plastic material. PC / ABS plastic has a strength similar to iron and is a flame retardant material, so it has optimal conditions as a material for the housing (10) of the energy-saving device (100) of the present invention.

[0139] Meanwhile, although not specifically illustrated in FIGS. 15 and 16, if the housing (10) is made of plastic, the inner surface of the housing (10) may be plated with a first metal, for example, zinc. When zinc plating is difficult, it may be painted using a paint containing a zinc component (50% or more). When zinc paint is applied, it is preferable that the thickness be 1 mm or less (not illustrated). In addition, when the cover (12) and the case (14) are combined, it is preferable to ensure waterproofing by applying silicone to the boundary (16) of the edge portion of the cover and the housing to ensure waterproofing. In particular, when the cover (12) and the case (14) are fastened using screws, the edge portions thereof may not be in perfect contact, so silicone waterproofing is essential.

[0140] The tourmaline mixture layer, which is laminated and accommodated at a predetermined thickness inside the housing (10), is a mixture layer of tourmaline powder, permanent magnet powder, and moisture (H2O), and tourmaline can be said to be the most important component in the present invention.

[0141] Tourmaline is a mineral belonging to the hexagonal crystal system that generates electricity through friction. After Pierre discovered in 1880 that an electric charge (electricity) was generated on the surface of tourmaline crystals, tourmaline was given the nickname of electric stone. No matter how finely tourmaline is crushed, it has been found that there are positive and negative poles at each end of the crystal, and it has electrodes that do not permanently decay unless heated to near 1000℃. In addition, it is known that when the positive and negative poles of a tourmaline crystal are connected, a weak current of 0.06 mA flows.

[0142] Even when tourmaline is pulverized to 0.3 μm, it has positive and negative polarities at both ends of the crystal. Therefore, the tourmaline powder contained in the tourmaline mixture layer corresponding to the EMF-7 layer (20) of the energy-saving device (100) of the present invention maintains its electrical properties. In the energy-saving device (100) of the present invention, the tourmaline powder is a polar crystal that has electric polarization from the beginning even without applying an electric field from the outside, and forms electrodes at both ends of the powder crystal. However, the positive and negative electrodes of the tourmaline powder crystal are not necessarily parallel, but are always in an unstable state, so that electrons continuously flow from the negative pole toward the positive pole. Therefore, in the energy-saving device (100) of the present invention, the tourmaline powder continues to generate a weak electric current, and when the tourmaline powder comes into contact with moisture contained in the tourmaline mixture layer, the moisture is instantaneously electrolyzed and electrons are generated.

[0143] A permanent magnet is a magnet that generates and maintains a stable magnetic field without receiving external electrical energy. In the energy-saving device (100) of the present invention, any commercially available permanent magnet powder may be used, and magnetite powder is preferred. In the energy-saving device (100) of the present invention, the permanent magnet powder contained in the tourmaline mixture layer is believed to assist the tourmaline powder in electrolyzing moisture to generate electrons.

[0144] Meanwhile, it is preferable that the tourmaline used in the tourmaline mixture layer of the energy-saving device (100) according to one embodiment of the present invention be a powder of 325 mesh or larger, and the permanent magnet powder must also be a powder of 325 mesh or larger.

[0145] The ionosphere (30) is located above and below the inside of the housing (10) with the tourmaline mixture layer in between. The upper ionosphere (30a) is located between the tourmaline mixture layer, which is the EMF-7 layer (20), and the upper EMF-6 layer (50a), and when the cover (12) is separated from the case (14) of the housing (10), it is separated from the case (14) together with the cover (12). On the other hand, the lower ionosphere (30b) is located between the tourmaline mixture layer, which is the EMF-7 layer (20), and the lower EMF-6 layer (50b), and when the cover (12) is separated from the case (14) of the housing (10), it is located within the case (14).

[0146] The upper ionosphere (30a) and the lower ionosphere (30b) may be composed of a conductive metal, for example, copper or aluminum. The ionosphere (30a, 30b) of the conductive metal is in close contact with the EMF-7 layer (20) and the EMF-6 layer (50a, 50b) and functions as the metal plates on both sides of the condenser. Accordingly, the electrons generated by the tourmaline mixture layer are charged and then discharged by the condenser function of the ionosphere (30), and conduct between the charging material inside the device and the external input terminal through the conductive plate (40) described below.

[0147] The conductive plate (40) may be placed embedded in a tourmaline mixture layer. The material of the conductive plate (40) is preferably a conductor, for example, graphite. Since the conductive plate (40) is embedded in a tourmaline mixture layer containing moisture, there may be concerns about oxidation due to moisture. Therefore, there is no concern about oxidation with a conductive plate (40) made of graphite. In addition, the high conductivity of graphite has the advantage of smooth electron emission.

[0148] When the conductive plate (40) is made of metal, oxidation due to moisture can be minimized by the reduction effect of electrons transferred by the discharge action of the ionosphere (30) as described above. The energy-saving device (100) of the present invention also has the advantage of extending the life of the device by minimizing oxidation when the conductive plate (40) accommodated inside the device is made of metal.

[0149] Referring again to FIGS. 15 and 16, a permanent magnet (90), for example, a ferrite embedded in a tourmaline mixture layer, may be placed around the conductive plate (40). For example, the permanent magnet (90) may be placed on the left and right sides of the conductive plate (40). The permanent magnet (90) may be placed at a position overlapping the conductive plate (40) when viewed in the y-axis direction.

[0150] The permanent magnet (90) embedded in the tourmaline mixture layer has the function of activating the formation of an internal magnetic field. In other words, it has the function of activating the performance of the permanent magnet powder included in the tourmaline mixture layer.

[0151] Fig. 17 is a perspective view of the energy saving device (100) depicted in Fig. 16 of the present invention.

[0152] Fig. 18 is a perspective view of another energy-saving device (100) according to a second embodiment of the present invention.

[0153] Referring to Fig. 17, a portion of the front surface of the housing (10) is cut away to show the inside of the device, and the depiction of the internal filler, the EMF-7 layer (20) and the EMF-6 layer (50), is omitted for convenience in order to allow easy visual confirmation of the internal structure.

[0154] It can be seen that permanent magnets (90) are arranged on the upper and lower portions of the conductive plate (40). The permanent magnets (90) may be arranged in pairs, with one or more on the upper portion and one or more on the lower portion. The permanent magnets (90) may be arranged at a position overlapping the conductive plate (40) when viewed in the z-axis direction.

[0155] Referring again to FIGS. 15 and 16, the wire (60) connecting the conductive plate (40) and the power bus of the power terminal (80) may be any commercially available wire, but a wire of sufficient thickness and conforming to safety standards may be used. It is preferable that the terminal (70) connecting the inner wire portion (60a) of the wire (60) and the conductive plate (40) be tightly tightened to prevent any gaps from forming.

[0156] The wire holder (62) is used in a specification suitable for the wire (60), and is attached tightly sealed using silicone or adhesive to prevent moisture inside from escaping to the outside when connecting the case (14) of the housing (10) and the wire (60).

[0157] Referring to FIGS. 20 and 22, the wire (60) extends to the outside of each energy-saving device (100, 200), and the outer portion (60b) of the wire extended to the outside is connected to a power terminal (80) provided with a power bus to which power is supplied, or to a distribution board or circuit breaker, etc. When the energy-saving device set (1000) of the present invention is electrically connected to a power terminal (80), a distribution board, or a circuit breaker (not shown), current flow is improved, thereby reducing power consumption.

[0158] In this regard, Fig. 19 presents experimental data demonstrating that power consumption is reduced when the energy-saving device of the present invention is used. As can be seen from the table and graph of Fig. 19, the energy-saving device of the present invention reduces power by reducing the current value by improving only the flow of current without artificially lowering the voltage.

[0159] Typically, electricity supplied from power plants is transmitted to users along power lines. The sinusoidal waveform is distorted by the impedance of the power cables and other factors, resulting in electrical energy loss. In this regard, the energy-saving device of the present invention, as described above, can reduce power consumption at electricity users (homes, factories, offices, businesses, etc.) by improving current flow and improving the distorted sinusoidal waveform.

[0160] Meanwhile, the energy-saving device of the present invention can be configured to suit a single-phase, two-wire, three-phase, three-wire, or three-phase, four-wire system, depending on the classification of the power bus provided to actual electricity consumers. Accordingly, an energy-saving device set (1000) comprising unit modules of the energy-saving device (100) in FIGS. 19 and 21 can be connected to a power bus.

[0161] As shown in FIGS. 19 to 22, if the power busbar is a single-phase, two-wire type, two energy-saving devices (100, 200) are individually provided to and electrically connected to two power lines (L, N in FIG. 20) provided to the power terminal (80) (see FIGS. 19 and 20), and if the power busbar is a three-phase, four-wire type, four energy-saving devices (100, 200, 300, 400) are individually provided to and electrically connected to four power lines (R, S, T, N in FIG. 22) provided to the power terminal (80) (see FIGS. 21 and 22). With this configuration, the insulation, safety, and power-saving effect of the energy-saving device set (1000) of the present invention are maximized.

[0162] Meanwhile, although not specifically illustrated, it is also possible to provide a plurality of conductive plates (40) and wires (60) in accordance with the number of power lines of the power bus in a single energy-saving device (100) as illustrated in FIG. 19 and connect them to a power terminal (80), distribution board, or circuit breaker.

[0163] For example, if the power supply unit (80) is a single-phase, two-wire system, the energy-saving device (100) of FIG. 19 may be configured by providing two conductive plates (40) and two wires (60) correspondingly connected thereto. That is, the two inner wire parts (60a) are connected to the two conductive plates (40) using two terminals (70), and the two outer wire parts (60b) are configured to extend to the outside of the housing (10) and be connected to the single-phase, two-wire power supply unit (80). In addition, even if the power supply unit (80) is a three-phase, three-wire system or a three-phase, four-wire system, the energy-saving device (100) may be configured in the same manner as in the case of the single-phase, two-wire system.

[0164] While the present invention has been described with reference to the above-described embodiments, the present invention is not limited thereto. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that modifications and variations can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and that such modifications and variations also fall within the scope of the present invention.

[0165] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the movement and flow of electrons can be improved by using tourmaline mineral having permanent electrical properties.

[0166] Additionally, corrosion is prevented and electron emission is smooth through the conductive plate made of graphite material.

[0167] Above, although some examples have been given and various preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described, the description of the various embodiments described in the “Specific Details for Carrying Out the Invention” section is merely exemplary, and those skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains will readily understand that they can carry out various modifications of the present invention or carry out equivalent implementations of the present invention based on the above description.

[0168] In addition, since the present invention can be implemented in various other forms, the present invention is not limited by the above description, and the above description is provided only to make the disclosure of the present invention complete and to fully inform a person having ordinary skill in the art to which the present invention belongs of the scope of the present invention, and it should be understood that the present invention is defined only by each claim of the claims.
