Studies have found that there is an instable oxygen species (O+), also known as free radicals, in the human body. The free radicals are usually generated due to diseases, diet, environment and one's life style, and the free radicals in the human body can be excreted in the form of water by reacting with the inhaled hydrogen. With this method, the amount of free radicals in the human body can be reduced, thereby restoring the body condition from an acidic state to an alkaline state, achieving an anti-oxidation, anti-aging and beauty health effect, and even eliminating chronic diseases. Furthermore, there are clinical experiments showing that, for patients who need to inhale a high concentration of oxygen for a long time, the lung damage from the high concentration of oxygen can be ameliorated by inhaling hydrogen. According to the statement mentioned above, gas including hydrogen can be believed in a health gas, which can be generated by electrolyzing water.


Please refer to FIG. 1. FIG. 1 shows the gas generator for health use in an embodiment of the present invention. According to some embodiment of the present invention, the gas generator 100 comprises a main body 102. The main body 102 comprises relative device for generating health gas including hydrogen and oxygen and mixing the gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen with a volatile essential oil and an atomized medicinal liquid. The relative detail will be explained later. The gas generator 100 further comprises a mask 106, connected to the relative device for generating health gas comprised in the main body 102 through a pipe 104 to provide health gas including hydrogen and oxygen for user to breathe.

In some embodiments, the display device 108 can further display relative information of the user, wherein the relative information includes account, used times, used volume, or suggested setting. In another embodiment, the gas generator of the present invention further comprises network system, used to connect the using state or relative data of the user to the account database for providing data exchanging function, such as relative verification or updating function.

In another embodiment, the gas generator of the present invention further comprises video system, used to play video or music for user when using. And the relative information can also be displayed through the display device 108. The gas generator 100 further comprises an input device 110, such as keyboard or touch panel, for the user to input relative messages, including account, setting, or function selecting. The input device 110 also can adjust the output rate of the atomized medicinal liquid, volatile essential oil, or the gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen,


Please refer to FIG. 2. FIG. 2 shows the partial components of the gas generator for health use in an embodiment of the present invention. According to some embodiments of the present invention, the main body 102 in FIG. 1 comprises a hydrogen and oxygen generator 200, wherein the generator comprises an electrolysis tank 210 for containing electrolyzed water 212. The main component of the electrolyzed water 212 is pure water or water. Some electrolytes can be added when needing, such as Sodium hydroxide, Calcium carbonate, or Sodium chloride solution. In this embodiment, the electrolysis tank 210 is a plate form electrolysis tank, comprising many plate form electrodes 214 electrically connected to the power supply 260. The electrolyzed water 212 can be electrolyzed through powering up the power supply 260 for generating gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen 216. In another embodiment, the electrolysis tank 210 also can be a double crest electrolysis tank. The electrode is formed by a double crest barrel. The double crest barrel has an outer barrel, a middle barrel, and an inner barrel. The middle barrel is a main anode electrically connected to the power supply, so the material is conductive metal, such as stainless steel or other metal coated with platinum. Outer barrel, the middle barrel and the inner barrel are hollow cylinder structures. The inner surface of the outer barrel comprises many teeth structures (for example, the teeth structure is not less than forty teeth). The inner and outer surfaces of the middle barrel also comprise many teeth structures (for example, the teeth structure is not less than forty teeth). And the outer surface of the inner barrel also comprises many teeth structures (for example, the teeth structure is not less than forty teeth). Therefore, the electrolyzing area of the electrodes can be increased. In some embodiments, the polarity of the plate form electrodes of the plate form electrolysis tank and the polarity of the double crest barrel of the double crest electrolysis tank are unchangeable. And in other embodiments, the polarity of the electrodes is changeable for prolonging the using life of the electrolysis tank. However, the electrode form of the electrolysis tank 210 is not limited to the form provided by this embodiment of the present invention. Because the gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen 216 will be acquired on the top of the electrolysis tank 210, a first gas exit 218 is set on the top of the electrolysis tank 210 of the present invention, which is used to output the generated gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen 216. The electrolyzed water 212 in the electrolysis tank 210 is consumed due to electrolyzing process, so the electrolysis tank 210 further comprises a first filling water entrance 220, used to fill pure water, and can be set on the bottom of the electrolysis tank 210 as shown in the FIG. 2. The input device 110 of the gas generator 100 can be used for adjusting the output voltage or output current of the power supply 260 by user, which further controls the output rate of the gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen 216. For example, the input device 100 controls the output rate of the gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen between 0.1 L/min and 2 L/min, wherein the better output rate is 0.25 L/min.


The water bucket 222 for containing pure water 224 (also can contain electrolyzed water) is used to fill up the electrolysis tank 210. A gas entrance 226 is configured in the water bucket 222, coupled to the first gas exit 218 of the electrolysis tank 210 through a pipe. The gas entrance 226 can direct the gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen 216 generated from the electrolysis tank 210 into the pure water 224 in the water bucket 222. Only a little gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen 216 dissolves in the pure water 224. Most gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen 216 will emerge from the pure water 224 to the top of the water bucket 222. During the process of the gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen 216 emerging from the pure water 224, most heat energy will be absorbed by the pure water 224 for cooling the temperature of the gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen 216 due to the high specific heat of the pure water 224, which allows the temperature of the gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen 216 to be closer to the temperature of the pure water 224, such as room temperature (25° C.). Therefore, the probability of hydrogen explosion caused by the gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen 216 can be decreased, which enhances the security of the system. In an embodiment, the gas entrance 226 is configured on the outer surface of the bottom half of the water bucket 222 as shown in FIG. 2. Generally, the location of the gas entrance 226 has to be lower than the water level of the water bucket 222 when normal using. A little needless electrolyzing gas of the gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen 216 can also dissolve in the pure water, such as chlorine gas, which has the effect of filtering. The water bucket 222 further comprises a first water exit 228, for example, configured on the bottom of the water bucket 222 and coupled to the first water entrance 220 of the electrolysis tank 210 through a pipe, which can direct the pure water 224 in the water bucket 222 into the electrolysis tank 210 to fill up the electrolysis tank 210. The water bucket is better configured higher than the electrolysis tank 210 (as shown in FIG. 2, the bottom of the water bucket 222 is higher than the top of the electrolysis tank 210, or the bottom of the water bucket 222 only needs to be higher than the bottom of the electrolysis tank 210, for example, the bottom of the water bucket 222 is higher than a quarter from the bottom of the electrolysis tank 210). Therefore, the present invention can automatically fill up the electrolysis tank 210 through siphon pipes theory or gravity principle without other pressurized devices. Additionally, a pressure will be generated on the surface of the pure water 224 in the water bucket 222 because the gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen 216 is guided into the water bucket 222, wherein the pressure can cause the water bucket 222 to automatically fill up the electrolysis tank 210.


The gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen 216 which is cooled and filtered by the pure water 224 will be stored on the top of the bucket 222 and then output through the second gas exit 230 on the top for a user to breathe directly or for performing the follow-up atomized gas mixing process, which will be explained later. At the time, the output rate of the gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen 216 can be within 0.1 L/min to 2 L/min. A pressure sensor 236 can be selectively configured on the top of the water bucket 222. A depressurize device 232, such as a depressurize valve, can be configured on the top of the water bucket 222. When the pressure of the gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen 216 stored on the top of the water bucket 222 is high over a predetermined pressure, the water bucket 222 can be depressurized through the depressurize device 232. Therefore, hydrogen explosion can be prevented. That is to say, the water bucket 222 can be selectively depressurized by the depressurize device. For example, when the second gas exit 230 cannot output normally, such as blockage, the volume of hydrogen and oxygen in the first water bucket 222 will increase and then the pressure will increase as well because the electrolysis tank 210 is continuously generating the gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen 216. The water bucket 222 can be depressurized through the depressurize device 232, which can prevent hydrogen explosion. In an embodiment, when the pressure is one Pascal, the depressurize process is set to be performed. The water bucket 222 further comprises a water level sensor 234, used to sense the water level of the pure water in the water bucket 222. The working method will be explained later.


If the water level sensor 234 senses the water level of the pure water 224 in the water bucket 222 is lower than a preset value, such as low water level 240, the water bucket 222 can be filled up through water filling entrance 244. The water level sensor 234 had better be connected to an alarm device, such as display device 108 shown in FIG. 1, which can display an alarm message or make alarm sound for reminding the user to fill up. The generated volume of the gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen 216 is increased and the volume of the gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen 216 stored on the top of the water bucket 222 is increased as well when the water bucket 222 continuously fills up the electrolysis tank 210 with pure water 224. As the result, the water level of the pure water 224 in the water bucket 222 becomes lower. Hydrogen explosion will probably happen if the volume of the gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen 216 is too big. Therefore, the volume of the gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen 216 in the water bucket 222 can be controlled through water level sensing function of the water level sensor 234. Through the depressurize process and the filling-up process mentioned above, the stored volume and pressure of the gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen 216 in the water bucket 222 can be effectively controlled, which can prevent hydrogen explosion effectively. In some embodiments, the water level sensor 234 can be electrically connected to the power supply 260. When the water level of the water bucket 222 is sensed to be brought low continuously, and if the water level is lower than a preset value and there doesn't have fill up process, the power supply 260 can be cut off directly to stop electrolyzing and generating the gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen 216 from the electrolysis tank 210, which can prevent hydrogen explosion due to the big volume of the gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen 216 for enhancing the security of the system. When the water level sensor 234 senses the water level of the pure water 224 in the water bucket 222 is higher than a preset value, such as high water level 242, the process of filling up is stopped. In some embodiments, the present invention can remind the user to stop filling up through the alarm device mentioned above.


When the electrolysis tank is electrolyzing water, the electrolysis tank can not only generate gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen through electrical energy but also raise the temperature of the electrolysis tank through the generated heat probably; after the cooling process for cooling the gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen 216 by the pure water 224, the temperature of the water bucket 222 may be caused to raise; during the process of the power supply 260 supplying power to the electrolysis tank, the temperature of the power supply 260 may be caused to raise. For enhancing the security of the gas generator, a first temperature sensor 246 can be configured in the electrolysis tank 210, and/or a second temperature sensor 238 can be configured in the water bucket 222, and/or a third temperature sensor 262 (for example, on the circuit board) can be configured in the power supply 260, which is used to sense the temperature of the electrolysis tank 210, water bucket 222, and power supply 260. When the first temperature sensor 246, the second temperature sensor 238, and the third temperature sensor 262 sense the temperatures which are higher than each preset value, the alarm message can be displayed or the alarm sounds can be made through the alarm device mentioned above, such as display device 108. Additionally, the first temperature sensor 246, the second temperature sensor 238, and the third temperature sensor 262 had better electrically connected to the power supply 260. When the first temperature sensor 246, the second temperature sensor 238, and the third temperature sensor 262 sense the temperatures which are higher than each preset value, it means the system is abnormal, each of the first temperature sensor 246, the second temperature sensor 238, and the third temperature sensor 262 can cut off the power supply 260 and stop generating the gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen for enhancing the security of the system. That is to say, the first temperature sensor 246, the second temperature sensor 238, and the third temperature sensor 262 can selectively cut off the power supply 260 and stop generating the gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen.


For maintaining and cleaning conveniently, a first outlet 248 is configured in the electrolysis tank 210 and a second outlet 250 is configured in the water bucket 222. A first drain valve 254 can control the first outlet 248 to be open or close and a second drain valve 256 can control the second outlet 250 to be open or close. The first drain valve 254 and the second drain valve 256 can drain water for user to maintain or fix the electrolysis tank.


Please refer to FIG. 3. FIG. 3 shows the gas mixing system of the gas generator for health use in another embodiment of the present invention. The gas mixing system 300 is coupled to the second gas exit 230 of the water bucket 222 shown in FIG. 2, for example, coupled to the second gas exit 230 in FIG. 2 through pipe 302, for receiving gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen 216. The gas mixing system 300 comprises an atomized/volatile gas mixing tank 310, used to mix the gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen and an atomized/volatile gas 312 for generating health gas 314, and coupled to the pipe 104 shown in FIG. 1 for user to breathe. The atomized/volatile gas mixing tank 310 further comprises an oscillator 316, adapted to atomize or volatilize a liquid 318 and the liquid 320 in the atomized/volatile gas mixing tank 310 for generating the atomized/volatile gas 312. Liquid 318 is a base liquid of the oscillator 316, such as pure water. The liquid 320 is selected from a group consisting of an essential oil, a medicinal liquid, pure water and a combination thereof. The atomized/volatile gas 312 thus produced is preferably a volatile essential oil, an atomized medicinal liquid, atomized water vapor or a combination of two or three of above-mentioned volatile/atomized items. In some embodiments, the composition of the health gas can be selected by user. For example, the user can turn on/off the oscillator 316 to select the composition of the health gas. To elaborate, when the oscillator 316 is turned on, the health gas 314 is generated by mixing the atomized/volatile gas 312 and the gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen. When the oscillator 316 is turned off, no atomized/volatile gas is generated and, in this case, the health gas 314 comprises only the gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen. According to the statement mentioned above, the output device 110 of the gas generator 100 can be used to adjust the voltage of the oscillator 316 by user for controlling the spray of volatile essential oil, atomized medicinal liquid, or atomized water vapor and then mixing with the gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen 216 mentioned above.


For enhancing the convenience when using, the gas generator 100 can further comprise a diversion device 400 (as FIG. 4), wherein the input pipe 402 of the diversion device 400 can be coupled to the second gas exit 230 of the water bucket 222. The diversion device 400 comprises a select switch 408, which can be controlled by the input device 110 of the gas generator 100 for outputting the gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen 216 of the second gas exit 230 of the water bucket 222 through first supply pipe 404, through second supply pipe 406, or through both first supply pipe 404 and second supply pipe 406 concurrently. Therefore, the gas generator 100 can selectively supply for two users to use concurrently. When the gas generator 100 comprises gas mixing system 300, the input pipe 402 of the diversion device 400 can be used to receive health gas 314. And through the input device 110, the select switch 408 can be controlled for outputting the health gas 314 through first supply pipe 404, through second supply pipe 406, or through both first supply pipe 404 and second supply pipe 406 concurrently. Therefore, the gas generator 100 can selectively supply for two users to use concurrently.


Please refer to FIG. 1 again. In some embodiments, a gas leakage sensor 120 can be configured in the main body 102 of the gas generator 100 and electrically connected to the power supply 260 shown in FIG. 2. When the gas leakage sensor senses an abnormal gas leakage from the gas generator, which comprises the gas mixture generate device shown in FIG. 2 or gas mixing system shown in FIG. 3, the present invention cuts off the power supply 260 and displays an alarm message on the alarm device mentioned above. Additionally, an emergency button 112 can be configured in the main body 102 of the gas generator 100, electrically connected to the power supply 260 shown in FIG. 2. When the user meets an accidental situation, such as feeling uncomfortable, or an emergent change of the surrounding conditions, the user can press the emergency button 112 directly and the system will cut off the power supply 260. Upon the emergent situation is solved, the user can restart the gas generator 100.


According to the security system provided by the present invention, through the temperature configured in the electrolysis tank, water bucket, and power supply, the temperature of relative device can be monitored for preventing an air blast or a short circuit due to high temperature to enhance the security of the gas generator. Through the water level sensor configured in the water bucket, the water level of the water bucket can be monitored for controlling the filling water mechanism and the volume of the gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen stored in the water bucket to prevent hydrogen explosion caused by high pressure or big volume of the gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen stored in the water bucket. Therefore, the security of the gas generator can be insured. The gas leakage sensor can monitor if the gas generator has abnormal condition and turn off the system to avoid leakage of gas mixture including hydrogen and oxygen and prevent hydrogen explosion. The emergency button can turn off the system according to the emergent situation. According to the present invention, the gas generator can provide a safer using circumstance.


With the examples and explanations mentioned above, the features and spirits of the invention are hopefully well described. More importantly, the present invention is not limited to the embodiment described herein. Those skilled in the art will readily observe that numerous modifications and alterations of the device may be made while retaining the teachings of the invention.
