Description:
DEVICE FOR ACCELERATING PERFECT COMBUSTION OF FUEL Technical Field The present invention relates to a device for acceleration perfect combustion of fuel through light resolution of discharge, which electrolytically dissociates a liquefied fuel such as gasoline, diesel, or petroleum by generating an electrical discharge for the liquefied fuel, using high-voltage bipolar electricity (+,-) so that the liquefied fuel can be perfectly burned. Here, the electrical discharge refers to a phenomenon that charge stored in a battery is discharged, generating heat and intense light, by increasing a voltage between both electrodes spaced from each other by a predetermined distance and thus flowing a current between them.

Background Art Generally, an internal or external combustion engine is provided with a vaporizer for spraying an atomized mixture of liquefied fuel and air in the form of gas in a combustor. Such vaporizers are grouped into two types: a vaporization type of FIG. 1 and an injection type of FIG. 2.

In a vaporizer 10 of the vaporization type, a narrow path 13 is formed between a fuel inlet 11 and a fuel outlet 12, a fluid flowing through the path 13 is partially set to a low pressure, and the

fluid of the low-pressure absorbs gas or liquid around a nozzle. Thus, the fluid of the low pressure is vaporized.

The above vaporization type, however, is so constituted that it leads to imperfect combustion due to large and thus unstable atomized fuel particles and difficulty in entirely removing imperfectly burned material of a heavy metal, for example, lead (pb) included in the fuel.

On the other hand, in a vaporizer 20 of the injection type shown in FIG. 2, liquefied fuel stored in a tank 21 is mixed with a gas, for example, vapor, compressed air, or oxygen, and pumped out at a high pressure of about 50-75kg/cm2 from a fuel spraying pump 23 through a fuel discharge pipe 22. Then, gas or liquid is absorbed into a thus-produced low-pressure portion and mixed with compressed air, and the liquefied fuel is pumped into a combustor 24 in the form of gas.

This injection type, however, though it generates smaller atomized gas particles than the above-described vaporization type and thus can increase combustibility, is unable to provide physical resistance to atomized particles, and remove a heavy metal such as lead included in the gas. Accordingly, the injection type is also limited in achieving perfect combustion, since it decreases the combustibility of fuel.

Finer atomized particles, which are impossible to obtain in the above fuel spraying means, can be produced by fuel catalyzing means disclosed in U. S. Patent No. 5,329,941 and Korea Patent No. 095,961.

That is, carbon and hydrogen constituting fuel molecules relatively

show charges of 5+ and b-, respectively, due to electronegativity difference. When such fuel molecules pass through a screw-shaped wire net pipe, they also passes though a magnetic field directed from the north pole N to the south pole S of a magnet installed outside the pipe. Here, electrons of the fuel molecules are concentrated, unstable, and thus highly susceptible to reaction with oxygen, due to a current generated vertically upward from the direction of the magnetic field according to the rule of fleming's right hand. On the basis of this principle, particles of the fuel become fine.

However, since such devices have theoretical limitations in that magnetic force is used to ionize fuel, they are ineffective, in fact.

Furthermore, another reason for their ineffectiveness is that fuel activation effects resulting from circular movement according to the volume of a rotary motion are proportional to movement speed.

Disclosure of the Invention Therefore, to effectively solve the conventional problem, the object of the present invention is to provide a device for accelerating perfect combustion of fuel through light resolution of discharge, which makes atomized fuel particles fine by generation a discharge with high-voltage electricity (+,-), passing a liquefied fuel through a thus-produced discharge portion which emits high heat and intense light, dissociating hydrogen, having a strong binding force to oxygen, from a liquefied fuel molecule containing carbon and hydrogen, and tightly binding the dissociated hydrogen to oxygen, and achieves satisfactory perfect combustion of fuel by removing

various components impeding perfect combustion of fuel, so that fuel efficiency is maximized, fuel consumption is reduced, and engine output is increased.

To achieve the above object, there is provided a device for accelerating perfect combustion of fuel through light resolution of discharge in a burning apparatus in which fuel is supplied from a fuel tank to a combustor through a vaporizing means in the form of a mixed gas and burned, comprising an accelerator for generating a discharge on a connection pipe between the fuel tank and the vaporizing means with high-voltage electricity, thus emitting high heat and intense light, and electrolytically dissociating hydrogen from carbon in the fuel passing through a discharge portion, so that the binding force of hydrogen to oxygen is increased and the fuel is perfectly burned.

The accelerator for perfect combustion of fuel comprises a body which has screw holes in the upper and lower parts thereof and a space portion, and is screw-combined with a fuel inlet and a fuel outlet at both sides thereof; a (-)-ground conductive bolt screw-combined with the lower screw hole of the body ; and a (+) high-voltage discharge bolt screw-combined with the upper screw hole of the body and spaced from the lower portion of the (-)-ground conductive bolt by a predetermined distance suitable for discharge.

FIG. 4 is a magnified vertical sectional view according to the present invention.

Best mode for carrying out the Invention A preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail, referring to the attached drawings.

FIG. 3 is an exemplary diagram for showing the state where the present invention is installed. The present invention has a filter (not shown) for filtering foreign materials included in a liquefied fuel, a fuel tank 90 provided with a pump for pumping fuel to be transferred, and a vaporizing means 91 for producing atomized mixed gas containing oxygen needed for combustion, when the liquefied fuel is supplied from the fuel tank to a combustor 92.

The fuel tank 90 and the vaporizing means 91 communicate with each other by a connection pipe 93 formed of a flexible material, as in prior art.

An accelerator 100 is installed in the present invention, for accelerating perfect combustion of fuel by generating a discharge on the connection pipe 93 between the fuel tank 90 and the vaporizing means 91, with high-voltage electricity, thus emitting high heat and intense light, electrolytically dissociating hydrogen from carbon in the fuel passing through a discharge portion 140, and thus increasing the binding force of the hydrogen to oxygen.

FIG. 4 is a magnified vertical sectional view according to the present invention. That is, the accelerator 100 for perfect combustion of fuel includes a body 110 which has screw holes 111 and 111'in the upper and lower parts thereof and a space portion 112, and is screw-combined with a fuel inlet 113 and a fuel outlet 114. Here, the body should be formed of an insulating material.

The lower screw hole 111 of the body 110 has screw teeth of the outer circumferential surface thereof. There is provided a (-)-ground conductive bolt 120 which has an end introduced into the space portion 112 of the body and the other end connected to an external metal through a ground wire (not shown). A (+) high-voltage electricity discharge bolt 130 is spaced from the end of the (-)-ground conductive bolt and screw-combined with the upper screw hole 111'of the body. An end of the bolt 130 is connected to a battery.

Meanwhile, preferably, the end portions of the bolts 120 and 130 are sharpened to facilitate a discharge.

Reference numeral 150 in the drawing denotes a fixing band for connection the connection pipe to the perfect combustion accelerator.

In the present invention as constituted above, the (-)-ground conductive bolt 120 is screw-combined with the lower screw hole 111 of the body 110 of the accelerator 100, and the (+) high-voltage electricity discharge bolt 130 is screw-combined with the upper screw hold 111'. Here, the bolts are spaced from each other by a predetermined distance to achieve an optimum discharge state.

Then, the connection pipe 93 is inserted into the fuel inlet 113 and the fuel outlet 114, which are connected to both sides of the body, and firmly fixed by the fixing band 150.

The operation of the accelerator for ionizing hydrogen included in fuel after the installation of the accelerator 100 will be described in detail.

First, the (+) high-voltage electricity discharge bolt 130 is connected to a high-voltage electricity line (not shown) of the battery. At this time, high-voltage discharge is generated, emitting light 141 and high heat, at the end of the (-)-grounded conductive bolt 120 by connecting the bolt to a (-)

power source and operating a switch.

While the high-voltage discharge heat 140 and hight heat is generated over the space portion 112 of the body 110, the fuel flowing through the fuel inlet 113 passes through the discharge portion 114. The fuel, for example, diesel (AH3 (AH2) sAH3), gasoline (AH3 (AH2) 3 AH3), or methane (AH4) is ionized into hydrogen (Hz) and hydrocarbon (A,-). Then, the binding force of the dissociated hydrogen to oxygen is increased, which is a requirement for perfect combustion. That is, the amount of ionized hydrogen is increased.

The hydrogen is introduced into the combustor 92 of the burning device in the form of atomized particles through the vaporizing means, a combustion time is reduced due to the affinity of hydrogen to oxygen, and combustion heat is increased. Consequently, perfect combustion is performed. An example of the fuel transmitted through the accelerator which is applied to a diesel or gasoline engine is shown in tables 1 and 2.
