Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to exhaust emission purifying devices in a field of exhaust emission purification of internal combustion engines of such as automobiles, ships and airplanes, in particular exhaust emission purifying devices in which a catalyst material is interposed in a path of a fuel pipe from a fuel tank to an internal combustion engine to reduce harmful matters in the exhaust emission from the internal combustion engine.
- In an automobile, it is general to attach a ternary catalyst in the middle of an exhaust pipe of an internal combustion engine, this being post-processing of harmful matters emitted from the internal combustion engine. Furthermore, intermediate processing is carried out in a lean burn engine that improves combustion effect of an internal combustion engine and in a direct-injection diesel engine and a direct-injection gasoline engine. However, such post-processing or intermediate processing alone is not enough to sufficiently reduce the harmful matters.
- In this connection, there are approaches in which a catalyst material is disposed in a path of a fuel pipe from a fuel tank to an internal combustion engine to apply treatment before liquid fuel reaches the internal combustion engine, that is, pre-combustion treatment, thereby the harmful matters are accelerated to decrease.
- As this kind of catalyst materials, ones disclosed in, for instance, patent literatures 1 and 2 can be cited. Catalyst materials described in JP-A-11-153319 (patent literature 1) are constituted of any one of nylon, silk and trimidite that can be easily positively charged. Furthermore, catalyst materials described in Japanese Patent No. 2918880 (patent literature 2) are constituted by pressure-molding compositions made of a resin, a carbon source, a silicon dioxide source and glass fiber under heating followed by aging.
- Both patent literatures describe that by letting liquid fuel go through the catalyst material, the combustion efficiency of the liquid fuel can be improved and harmful matters in the exhaust gas can be reduced.
- However, like the catalyst materials described in patent literature 1, in the case of any one of nylon, silk and trimidite being used singularly, the harmful matters can be certainly reduced but cannot be satisfyingly reduced. Moreover, in the case of silk or trimidite being used, there is a problem in that because of poor moldability thereof performance is likely to vary for individual products.
- Furthermore, like the catalyst materials described in patent literature 2, when many raw materials are blended at a certain weight ratio, a producing process becomes complicated and a rise in the producing cost is likely to be caused.
- The present invention intends to improve a catalyst that is used in pre-combustion treatment of liquid fuel and thereby to provide an exhaust emission purifying device that can excellently reduce the harmful matters and improve the combustion efficiency and at the same time can realize the stabilization of product performance and cost reduction.
- In order to overcome the abovementioned problems, in an exhaust emission purifying device according to the present invention, in a path of a fuel pipe from a fuel tank to an internal combustion engine, a catalyst material that imparts negative charges to petroleum liquid fuel that goes through the fuel pipe is disposed, the catalyst material being made of a mixture of nylon and ceramics that generate minus ions.
- As mentioned above, in the invention, a mixture of nylon and ceramics is used as a catalyst of petroleum liquid fuel. Thereby, the combustion efficiency of an internal combustion engine can be improved, the harmful matters (CO, HC, NOx) in the exhaust gas emitted from the internal combustion engine are reduced to contribute to environmental protection, harmful matter reduction effect several tens percent higher than that of the catalyst material made of nylon ball alone can be obtained, and more stable effect can be attained.
- Furthermore, in comparison with the catalyst material that uses ceramics alone, the inventive catalyst material is lighter in weight and has excellent moldability owing to the action of nylon; accordingly, the catalyst material can be arranged substantially uniformly in its magnitude and shape, resulting in stabilizing product performance. Still furthermore, in comparison with the catalyst material that is constituted by blending many raw materials, the producing cost can be suppressed lower.
- Specifically, a tube body in which a catalyst material is housed is inserted in a fuel pipe and liquid fuel past through the fuel pipe is brought into contact with the catalyst material.
- Thereby, owing to the catalyst treatment prior to the combustion in the internal combustion engine, the liquid fuel can be negatively charged and thereby the combustion efficiency of fuel can be improved, resulting in enabling to reduce the harmful matters emitted from the internal combustion engine, to contribute to environmental protection and to save the fuel.
- Furthermore, the catalyst material is formed into balls having a diameter in the range of 5 to 10 mm by blending nylon and ceramics powders, a blending ratio of nylon and ceramics being in the range of (85: 15) to (95: 5) by weight ratio. Still furthermore, principal constituents of the ceramics that constitute the catalyst material include at least one kind of cerium, lanthanum, fluorine, neodymium and silicon dioxide.
- Still furthermore, the tube body is formed of nylon material that is likely to generate positive static electricity, and a place that is likely to be negatively charged such as a shroud next to a fan of a car body of the internal combustion engine and the tube body are connected so as to send negative charges to the tube body.
- Thereby, since negative electric charges can be continuously sent to the tube body, the liquid fuel can be assuredly negatively charged.
-
- Fig. 1 is a schematic layout diagram of an exhaust emission purifying device involving one embodiment according to the invention, Fig. 2 being a vertical sectional view thereof, Fig. 3 being a perspective view of a catalyst material provided with a hole and groove, Fig. 4 being a schematic layout diagram of an exhaust emission purifying device involving another embodiment.
-
- In what follows, embodiments according to the invention will be detailed with reference to the drawings. An exhaust emission purifying device according to the present invention cleans up an emission gas from an internal combustion engine of such as an automobile, ship or an aircraft, and as shown in Fig. 1 a
catalyst material 10 that imparts negative electric charges to petroleumliquid fuel 12 past through afuel pipe 18 is disposed in a path of thefuel pipe 18 from afuel tank 16 to aninternal combustion engine 14.Reference numerals catalyst material 10 is packed in atube body 24 that is inserted in thefuel pipe 18. - The
catalyst material 10 is made of a mixture of nylon and ceramics that generate minus ions, and when theliquid fuel 12 is brought into contact with thecatalyst material 10 the minus ions are imparted to theliquid fuel 12 to negatively charge theliquid fuel 12 and thereby to negatively ionize. This is desirably performed immediately before theliquid fuel 12 enters theinternal combustion engine 14. - Furthermore, the
catalyst material 10 is preferably made in such a manner that nylon and ceramics made of powdery bodies of several µm to several hundreds µm are blended and formed into balls having a diameter of 5 to 10 mm, a blending ratio of nylon and ceramics being preferably in the range of (85: 15) to (95: 5) by weight ratio. When thecatalyst material 10 is smaller than 5 mm in diameter, the ventilation resistance of theliquid fuel 12 is likely to be large, and when it is larger than 10 mm in diameter, the deposition efficiency of the minus ions is unfavorably deteriorated. Still furthermore, when the blending ratio of nylon and ceramics is out of the above range, the deposition efficiency of the minus ions is unfavorably deteriorated. - Furthermore, as principal constituents of the ceramics, cerium Ce, lanthanum La, fluorine F, neodymium Nd and silicon dioxide SiO2 that generate minus ions much are preferably contained, at least one kind thereof being able to be contained.
- Thus, the
catalyst material 10 is constituted of a mixture of nylon and ceramics. Accordingly, in comparison with the catalyst material that uses, for instance, ceramics alone, thecatalyst material 10 becomes lighter in weight and excellent in the moldability by the action of nylon, resulting in simplifying to process into balls as mentioned above. As a result, thecatalyst material 10 can be easily arranged into substantially uniform particle diameters and thereby the dispersion of performance of the respective products can be suppressed low. Furthermore, as shown in Fig. 3, to thecatalyst material 10 that is processed in ball, ahole 30 and agroove 31 can be further formed easily; thereby, a surface area of thecatalyst material 10 can be enlarged to increase a contact area with theliquid fuel 12, and thereby function as a catalyst can be further improved. Still furthermore, since thecatalyst material 10 is constituted only of nylon and ceramics, in comparison with the catalyst material obtained by blending many raw materials, the producing cost can be suppressed low. - In the above configuration, the
liquid fuel 12 is brought into contact with thecatalyst material 10 inserted in thefuel pipe 18 from thefuel tank 16 to theinternal combustion engine 14, and thereby theliquid fuel 12 is negatively ionized. On the other hand, air that becomes an air-fuel mixture, being deprived of electric charges owing to friction with a car body, is positively ionized. When the negatively ionizedfuel 12 and positively ionized air form an air-fuel mixture, since like electrostatic coating that makes use of static electricity, the respective electric charges attract each other, a homogeneous mixture can be obtained and thereby the combustion efficiency of theliquid fuel 12 can be heightened. - In Fig. 4, a
tube body 24 is formed of nylon that is likely to be positively charged, in order to negatively charge thetube body 24 thetube body 24 is connected with a place that is likely to be negatively charged such as a shroud next to afan 28 of a car body of an internal combustion engine, negative electric charges are continuously sent to thetube body 24 to negatively charge theliquid fuel 12, and thereby the combustion efficiency of theliquid fuel 12 is heightened. - It goes without saying that in the present invention, without restricting to the above embodiments, various corrections and modifications may be applied to the above embodiments within the range of the present invention.
- Two kinds of a fuel-ionizing exhaust emission purifying device in which in a
tube body 24 having a diameter of 30 mm and a length of 95 mm nylon balls (diameter: 8 mm) are packed and a fuel-ionizing exhaust emission purifying device that uses a mixture of nylon and ceramics and in which in a tube body 24 (diameter: 30 mm and length: 95 mm) balls (diameter: 8 mm) made by blending powders of nylon and ceramics of 2 to 5 µm at a weight ratio of 90: 10 are packed were connected to the same automobile fuel pipes of a 1800 cc gasoline engine to investigate concentrations of CO and HC of anexhaust gas 22. Results are as shown in a table below.1800 cc gasoline engine CO (%) HC (ppm) Normal 0.29 242 With device (nylon) 0.12 83 With device (nylon and ceramics) 0.08 44 - Above measurements were carried out with a CO-HC analyzer EIR2105 (manufactured by Yanagawa Seisakusho KK) and an exhaust gas during idling was measured. From the experimental results, it is found that a fuel-ionizing exhaust emission purifying device that uses a mixture of nylon and ceramics can very stably and effectively reduce the harmful matters contained in the exhaust gas.
- By use of an automobile having a 3000 cc gasoline engine, experiments were carried out similarly to example 1. Results are as shown in a table below.
3000 cc gasoline engine CO (%) HC (ppm) Normal 0.38 111 With device (nylon) 0.06 13 With device (nylon and ceramics) 0.01 6 - From the experimental results as well, it can be judged that a fuel-ionizing exhaust emission purifying device due to the mixture of nylon and ceramics can more stably and effectively reduce the harmful matters contained in exhaust gas.
- Thus, it can be judged that in a little large automobiles and so on having a 1800 cc or 3000 cc engine, particularly stably and effectively, the harmful matters contained in the exhaust gas can be reduced.
- The present invention is useful as a catalyst for various kinds of internal combustion engines that are mounted on automobiles, ships and the like and use petroleum fuel.
