The present disclosure relates a hydrogen water production technology, in particular, to a hydrogen water generator, a micro/nano (i.e. micro or nano) hydrogen bubble water generator and a micro/nano hydrogen bubble water production method, which pressure hydrogen gas, hit hydrogen gas molecule groups to produces amount of micro/nano hydrogen bubbles, and form the hydrogen water, without a compressor, wherein the micro/nano hydrogen bubbles are prone to dissolve in the water.
Academic articles have described that hydrogen gas has a certain health care effect on human body. Even, research results of articles show that the hydrogen gas has an obvious effect for improving agriculture and aquaculture. Regarding a general absorption manner, mostly, the hydrogen gas is dissolved in water to produce hydrogen water, and then the hydrogen water is drunk or sprayed; or alternatively, the hydrogen gas is directly breathed into the human body for absorption. The above two absorption manners are performed by directly absorbing hydrogen gas molecules.
During process of preparing hydrogen water, the conventional manner is to inject hydrogen gas directly to drink water, but due to the limited solubility of the hydrogen gas in the water, it needs a long time to dissolve expected amount of the hydrogen gas in the water, and the hydrogen gas in the water may quickly dissipate as time advances. Therefore, it is hard to reserve the hydrogen water, and the actual solubility of the hydrogen gas in the water is far less the expected value.
To solve the above problems, another conventional manner is to utilize a hydrogen gas compressor to compress the hydrogen gas, and to make the compressed hydrogen gas pass a plate body with micro holes, such that the hydrogen gas can reach the bucket and be dissolved in the water. However, a high pressure compressor may have dangers since it may cause spark easily and have flammability. Therefore, to avoid the above dangers, the conventional hydrogen gas compressor needs a certain volume and space, which causes the high cost of the hydrogen gas compressor as well as the increased production cost of the hydrogen water.
Additionally, another conventional manner is to utilize an ultra-sonic oscillation sheet to oscillate on the water, to decompose the hydrogen gas into smaller molecules by using the oscillation energy, such that the hydrogen gas can be quickly dissolved in the water. However, the ultra-sonic oscillation sheet requires higher oscillation frequency, and if the volume of the ultra-sonic oscillation sheet is too large, the higher oscillation frequency cannot be obtained. Thus, the generally used ultra-sonic oscillation sheet has the smaller area, and cannot produce large amount of micro/nano hydrogen bubble water via the hydrogen gas in a short time, which has limitation in usage.
To solve the above problems of the prior art, a main objective of the present disclosure is to provide a hydrogen water generator, a micro/nano hydrogen bubble water generator and a micro/nano hydrogen bubble water production method, which hit hydrogen gas molecule groups to produces amount of micro/nano hydrogen bubbles without using additional the compressor to compress the hydrogen gas, wherein the micro/nano hydrogen bubbles can be dissolved in the water quickly to generate hydrogen water with micro/nano hydrogen bubbles.

Therefore, the scope of the present disclosure should not be limited to the scale and configuration of the attached drawings.
The hydrogen water generator of the present disclosure can drain hydrogen gas by a draining force which is generated since the liquid flows to a pipe with a smaller section area from a pipe with a larger section area, and hit the hydrogen gas molecule groups to divide into micro/nano bubbles by the liquid flowing speed, such that the hydrogen gas and the liquid can have a better liquid/gas mixing effect to prepare the hydrogen water. Referring to
When the hydrogen water generator 10 is used to prepare the hydrogen water HW, the liquid input end 111 receives the water W, and the water W flows to the liquid input section A. Then, while the water W flows to the pressuring section B via the liquid input section A, the pressuring section B pressures the water W, and then the water W further flows to the draining and mixing section C. Since the water W flows from a pipe with a larger section area to a pipe with a smaller section area, a draining force is thus induced to drain the hydrogen gas H flowing to the hydrogen gas inlet F1 of the hydrogen gas input section F into the water W. Meanwhile, the flowing speed of the water W can hit the gas molecule groups of the hydrogen gas H to divide into micro/nano hydrogen bubbles, and thus the hydrogen gas H can be mixed with the water in the draining and mixing section C. Next, the water W mixed with the hydrogen gas H passes the decompressing section D and decompressed by the decompressing section D, and then the hydrogen water HW with the micro/nano hydrogen bubbles can be output via the hydrogen water output section E and the hydrogen water output end 112.

The inner wall tilting angle θ2 of the decompressing section D is about 10 through 50 degrees, and preferably, 14 through 25 degrees. A ratio of the inner wall tilting angle θ1 of the pressuring section B over the inner wall tilting angle θ2 of the decompressing section D is about 1 through 5, and preferably, 1 through 1.5. A ratio of the diameter D1 of the liquid input section A over the diameter D3 of the hydrogen gas inlet F1 is about 3.25 through 650. The diameter D3 of the hydrogen gas inlet F1 can be 0.1 through 2 millimeters, and preferably, 0.4 through 1.5 millimeters.

Draining step S13: draining hydrogen gas H supplied from a hydrogen gas production device 20 via a hydrogen gas input end 113 of the hydrogen water generator 10, such that the hydrogen gas H passes a hydrogen gas input section F of the hydrogen water generator 10 and flows to a draining and mixing section C of the hydrogen water generator 10, thus draining the hydrogen gas H into the pressured water W for mixing the hydrogen gas H and hitting the hydrogen gas molecule groups.
Decompressing step S14: when the water W mixed with the hydrogen gas H flows to a decompressing section D of the hydrogen water generator 10 via the draining and mixing section C, decompressing the water W with the hydrogen gas H, by using the decompressing section D, so as to generate hydrogen water HW with micro/nano hydrogen bubbles.
