20100162969 | HEAT-PIPE ELECTRIC POWER GENERATING DEVICE AND HYDROGEN/OXYGEN GAS GENERATING APPARATUS AND INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE SYSTEM HAVING THE SAME - A heat-pipe electric power generating device including a fan disposed between an evaporating end and a condensing end of a heat-pipe is provided. A magnetic substance is disposed on the fan to form a magnetic field. A stator coil of a generator is disposed at the outer of the heat-pipe, which is corresponding to the position of the fan. An induced current is generated by the stator coil of the generator when the magnetic substance spins. Since the heat-pipe is made of copper, and the magnetic field is not shielded by copper, a current is induced when a relative motion between the magnetic substance on the fan and the stator coil of the generator at the outer of the heat-pipe is generated. Further, the heat-pipe electric power generating device can be applied on a hydrogen/oxygen gas generating apparatus and an internal combustion engine system of a motor vehicle. | 07-01-2010 |
20100162970 | HEAT -PIPE ELECTRIC POWER GENERATING DEVICE AND HYDROGEN/OXYGEN GAS GENERATING APPARATUS AND INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE SYSTEM HAVING THE SAME - A heat-pipe electric power generating device includes a heat pipe having an evaporating end and a condensing end, a non-magnetic shell connected to the condensing end, a generator stator coil disposed at the outer of the non-magnetic shell, a turbine disposed in the heat pipe, a driving axle connected to the turbine and extended into the non-magnetic shell, and a magnetic element disposed at the driving axle and located in the non-magnetic shell. A vapor flow flowing to the condensing end is generated at the evaporating end. The vapor flow drives the turbine to move the magnetic element, such that the generator stator coil generates an induced current. In addition, a hydrogen/oxygen gas generating apparatus and an internal combustion engine system having the heat-pipe electric power generating device are also provided. | 07-01-2010 |
20120227684 | HYDROGEN/OXYGEN GAS GENERATING APPARATUS AND INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE SYSTEM HAVING THE SAME - An internal combustion engine system including an electric power generating device, a container, a set of positive and negative electrodes and an internal combustion engine is provided. The container contains an electrolytic solution and has a gas outlet. The set of positive and negative electrodes are disposed within the electrolytic solution in the container, wherein the set of positive and negative electrodes are electrically connected to a first power output end and a second power output end of the electric power generating device, respectively. The internal combustion engine is connected to the gas outlet, wherein a gas product directed from the gas outlet is used as a fuel of the internal combustion engine. Further, the electric power generating device can be applied on a hydrogen/oxygen gas generating apparatus and integrated into the internal combustion engine system of a motor vehicle. | 09-13-2012 |
