Scope of the Claims:
(1) A housing for storing compressed gas, wherein the gas includes a natural gas mixture. This housing contains a pair of electrodes with non-conductive properties. These electrodes are arranged to apply direct current or high-voltage electric charges to the gas mixture in the housing. The system is designed to dissociate molecules of hydrogen and oxygen from the gas molecules. The residual gas is then collected and stored.
A method to extract hydrogen gas from the housing by controlling the pressure within the housing.
A mechanism to collect hydrogen gas generated within the housing through an outlet connected to the fuel combustion chamber.
A method to separate undesirable gas components from the gas generated, and return the remaining components to the housing.
A system to control the air-fuel mixture entering the combustion chamber by adjusting the volume of undesirable gas released.
(2) A device as described in (1), wherein the housing contains a variable valve to control the air pressure and the amount of hydrogen gas introduced to the combustion chamber.
(3) A method for separating hydrogen gas and oxygen gas within the housing, and transferring the gas through separate outlets.
(4) A system to use the separated hydrogen gas in combination with another fuel to create an air-fuel mixture suitable for combustion.
(5) A combustion device, wherein the rod mechanism connected to the tape-equipped rotating structure described above, and the port to which the tape-equipped rotating structure is connected, causes the displacement of said tape-equipped rotating structure.
(6) The gas mixture chamber, where it includes a hydrogen-oxygen gas injection device and also a non-explosive gas mixing device.
(7) The gas mixture chamber includes a trapping area in the upper and lower sections, and the hydrogen-oxygen gas mixture portion is stored in the trapping area.
(8) The surrounding air intake device includes a control mechanism, and a combustion device as described in claim (1), wherein the surrounding air and non-explosive gas mixture are directed into the chamber.
(10)
The surrounding air intake device in claim (8), which allows the combustion chamber to intake oxygen and hydrogen gas into the trapping area for combustion.
(11)
The combustion device in claim (1), wherein a control device is provided to connect the burner and the hydrogen-oxygen gas supply device, which controls the on/off operation of the burner to control the flow of gas.
(12)
The combustion device in claim (1), wherein the control mechanism connected to the burner is pressure-regulated.
(13)
A housing that surrounds the mixture chamber, having a first opening in the housing for air intake and a second opening in the housing to allow hydrogen gas captured in the mixture chamber to release into the atmosphere.
(14)
The upper part of the hydrogen-oxygen gas generator includes a sealing area, wherein the hydrogen gas contained in it is stored at a predetermined amount.
