ABSTRACT:

An internal combustion engine fuel supply and control that includes apparatus for disassociating hydrogen atoms and oxygen atoms from water and mixing the gas so produced with a non-combustible gas in a predetermined ratio. The gas mixture is mixed with air in suitable proportions and controllably directed to the combustion chamber of the internal combustion engine.

BACKGROUND OF INVENTION:

There is disclosed in my co-pending Canadian patent Application Serial No. 420,908, filed February 4, 1983, entitled "A Hydrogen Generator" a generating system converting natural water into hydrogen and oxygen gases. In that system and method, the hydrogen atoms are disassociated from a water molecule by the application of a non-regulated, non-filtered, low-power, direct current voltage electrical potential applied to two non-oxidizing similar metal plates having water passing therebetween. The action is. enhanced by pulsing the non-regulated and non-filtered direct current voltage. Particularly significant with my hydrogen generator disclosed in my co-pending application supra is that the hydrogen/oxygen generated is in a quantity in excess of that necessary for practical utilization. Further, and equally significant is that the generation of the hydrogen/oxygen is controlled by any one of or combination of several Factors, e.g. varying voltage, varying pulse rate, varying spacing between plates, switching the number of plates, and changing the plate configuration
