US 2012/0055805 A1 Mar. 8,2012 [0061] Hydrogenproductionsystem100isdesignedtobe portable. In one embodiment, hydrogen production system 100 is siZed approximately 8" in length by 8" in Width by 8" in height so that itcan ?t as an engine component in a vehicle. However, it is clear to one skilled in the art that hydrogen production system 100 and its components can be scaled largerorsmallerWithoutaffectingthespiritandscopeofthe presentinvention.Likewise, itiscleartoone skilledintheart thathydrogenproductionsystem100anditscomponentscan takeonmany differentshapesWithoutaffectingthespiritand scope ofthe present invention. FIG. 1 shoWs one embodiment of the present invention Where container apparatus 102 is shaped to alloW maximum transmittal of sound Waves 144 thoughsolution160.Finally,itiscleartooneskilledintheart that any number oftransducers 140 may be placed atvarious locations on container apparatus 102 and used to produce acoustic energy Waves 144 in order to maximiZe the creation of cavitation Within solution 160. Second Embodiment of Hydrogen Production System [0062] FIG.2isacrosssectionalsidevieWofanother embodiment,referredtoashydrogenproductionsystem200, of the present invention. Hydrogen production system 200 consists of a container apparatus 202 in the fashion of an electrolyticcellcapableofstoringasolution160.Thesidesof container apparatus 102 are preferably non-electrically con ductive.A holloW,cylindrical,electricallyconductivepiece 230 isheld above the bottom member 207 of container appa ratus202bysupportingmembers232.Asecondelectrically conductive member 234 is held above the bottom member 207 of container apparatus 202 by supporting member 205. Electricallyconductivepiece230isconnectedtothepositive terminal214ofpoWersupply210.Thus,electricallyconduc tive piece 230 is an anode. LikeWise, electrically conductive piece 234 is connected to the negative terminal 212 of poWer supply210.Thus,electricallyconductivepiece234isacath ode.A holloW,cylindricaltube220isconnectedtoandpasses through top member 206 of container apparatus 202. The bottom of tube 220 is ?ared outWard and positioned so that some portion of cathode 234 isWithin the tube 220. Finally, a transducer240 isconnectedtoone sideofcontainerapparatus 202. Wires 242 connect transducer 240 to poWer supply 210. [0063] PoWersupply210causescathode234tobenega tively charged and anode 230 to be positively charged. As a result, an electrical current is created betWeen cathode 234 and anode 230. The cylindrical shape of anode 230 and the position of cathode 234 along the axis of anode 230 takes advantageoftheelectrical?eldproducedbycathode234and anode 230 and helps to maximiZe the How of electricity betWeen cathode 234 and anode 230. [0064] Aspreviouslydescribed,theelectricalcurrent?oW ingbetWeencathode234andanode230electrolyZessolution 160 and causes hydrogen to form around cathode 234 and oxygen to form around anode 230. Tube 250 funnels the hydrogen out of container apparatus 202 for further use (shoWn by arroW 250). Referring to FIG. 3, a conical piece 310 isplaced on top ofanode 230. Conical piece 310 funnels oxygen out of container apparatus 202 (shoWn by arroW 340). Referring back to FIG. 2, as solution 160 is electrolyZed and the constituent gases are removed from the system 100, addi tional solution can be added through an inlet 280. [0065] Hydrogen production system 200 is the same as hydrogen production system 100 in that transducer 240 pro duces sound Waves 244 Which transmit through and cause cavitation in solution 160. This cavitation decreases the energy required to break the chemical bonds of solution 160 viaelectrolysis.As aresult,inthepresenceofcavitation,a greater amount of hydrogen is produced at cathode 234 at a givenvoltagethanintheabsenceofcavitation.Alternatively, in the presence of cavitation, the same amount of hydrogen is producedatcathode234ataloWervoltagethanintheabsence ofcavitation.

Third Embodiment of Hydrogen Production System [0067] FIG.4isacrosssectionalsidevieWofanother embodiment,referredtoashydrogenproductionsystem400, of the present invention. Hydrogen production system 400 consists of a cylindrically-shaped container apparatus 402 in thefashionofanelectrolyticcellcapableofstoringasolution 160. Container apparatus 402 has an electrically conductive inner Wall 403 and a non-electrically conductive outer Wall 470.An electricallyconducivepiece430isheldabovethe bottommember407ofcontainerapparatus402bysupporting member 405. Electrically conductive inner Wall 403 is con nected to the positive terminal 414 of poWer supply 410. Thus, conductive inner Wall 403 is an anode. Electrically conductive piece 430 is connected to the negative terminal 412ofpoWersupply410.Thus,electricallyconductivepiece 430isacathode.A holloW,cylindricaltube420isconnected toandpassesthroughthetopmember 480 ofcontainerappa ratus 402.
