Hydrogen on-demand fuel system for internal combustion engines

摘要

An on-demand oxy-hydrogen fuel system includes a oxy-hydrogen generator which is incorporated into a standard internal combustion engine. A microcontroller activates the oxy-hydrogen generator when oxy-hydrogen is needed. The oxy-hydrogen is then mixed with blow-by gases from a PCV valve which are recycled through the intake manifold. The addition of the oxy-hydrogen provides a very efficient fuel source which can dramatically increase fuel efficiency and reduce emissions.

主权项

1. An on-demand oxy-hydrogen fuel system for an internal combustion engine, comprising: an on-demand, oxy-hydrogen generator comprising a fluid reservoir containing an electrolyte solution, a cap for sealing an opening on the fluid reservoir, wherein the cap has a positive terminal, a negative terminal and a gas outlet in fluid communication with an interior of the fluid reservoir, and a pair of electrode plates attached to the cap and extending into the interior of the fluid reservoir so as to be at least partially submerged in the electrolyte solution, one of the pair of electrode plates electrically coupled to the positive terminal and another of the pair of electrode plates electrically coupled to the negative terminal; wherein the gas outlet on the oxy-hydrogen generator releases oxy-hydrogen produced by the electrolysis of the electrolyte solution, the gas outlet fluidly coupled to a pollution control system for recycling blow-by gases from a crankcase on the internal combustion engine to an intake manifold on the engine; and a microcontroller operably connected to the oxy-hydrogen generator for selectively activating the oxy-hydrogen generator in response to a demand for oxy-hydrogen, wherein the pollution control system comprises a PCV valve in-line with a vent line from the crankcase and a blow-by return line to the intake manifold.
