Abstract

The present invention provides a gas generator comprising an electrolytic device, a mixing chamber, and an atomizing chamber. The electrolytic device is configured for electrolyzing electrolyzed water to generate a gas with hydrogen. The mixing chamber is coupled to the electrolytic device for receiving the gas with hydrogen and mixing the gas with hydrogen with an atomized gas to generate a healthy gas. The atomizing chamber is coupled to the mixing chamber for generating the atomized gas. Wherein the maximum bore diameter of the mixing chamber is smaller than the maximum bore diameter of the atomizing chamber. The invention can reduce the possibility of the gas explosion by using the smaller volume of the mixing chamber and setting the anti-static device, since the smaller capacity of the mixing chamber has less hydrogen inside and the anti-static device is configured for reducing or eliminating the static electricity in the gas generator.

First claim

What is claimed is:

a disc structure surrounding the mixing reaction chamber; and
an atomizing chamber coupled to the mixing reaction chamber, wherein the atomizing chamber is configured to accommodate an atomized liquid for generating the atomized gas and transferring the atomized gas to the mixing reaction chamber;
wherein the maximum bore size of the mixing reaction chamber is smaller than the maximum bore size of the atomizing chamber.

2. The gas generator of claim 1 , further comprising an anti-static device set in the gas generator, wherein the anti-static device is configured for reducing or eliminating the static electricity in the gas generator.

3. The gas generator of claim 2 , wherein the anti-static device is integrally formed in the gas generator.

4. The gas generator of claim 2 , wherein the anti-static device has a conductive end accommodated in the mixing reaction chamber.

5. The gas generator of claim 2 , wherein the mixing reaction chamber has an inner wall for accommodating the gas with hydrogen, the atomized gas, or the healthy gas, and the inner wall comprises the anti-static device.

6. The gas generator of claim 2 , wherein the anti-static device is coupled to a channel of the gas generator through which the atomized gas, the gas with hydrogen or the healthy gas flows.

7. The gas generator of claim 6 , wherein the flow direction of the atomized gas, the gas with hydrogen, or the healthy gas is perpendicular to a surface of the anti-static device.

8. The gas generator of claim 2 , wherein the anti-static device is removably configured within the gas generator.

9. The gas generator of claim 1 , further comprising a top cover and an accommodating chamber with an inner wall, wherein the atomizing chamber is positioned in the accommodating chamber, the disc structure is couple to the inner wall, and the top cover is vertically stacked above the mixing reaction chamber.

10. The gas generator of claim 1 , wherein the mixing reaction chamber comprises two lateral protrusions protruding outward from opposite sides of the mixing reaction chamber, and one of the lateral protrusions is configured to receive the gas with hydrogen.

11. The gas generator of claim 1 , further comprising a flame arrester configured in a channel of the gas generator through which the atomized gas, the gas with hydrogen or the healthy gas flows.

12. The gas generator of claim 1 , wherein the volume of the mixing reaction chamber is less than the volume of the atomizing chamber.

13. The gas generator of claim 1 , wherein the mixing reaction chamber comprises a screw thread and the atomizing chamber comprises a corresponding screw thread, and the mixing reaction chamber and the atomizing chamber are combined through the screw thread and the corresponding screw thread.
