Patent ID: 7014740

Claim:
A brown gas mass production apparatus including an electrolytic cell which generates brown gas in large quantities via water electrolysis, the apparatus comprising: a line style electrolytic cell including an electrolytic cell case ( 11 ), wherein the electrolytic cell case includes a top surface, a bottom surface, an inside section, an outside section, an electrolyte distribution, and a discharging pipe on the inside bottom surface thereof, wherein the electrolytic cell case is coated with an insulation material on the inner surface thereof, electrode units disposed by at least two groups in a side-by-side arrangement in the electrolytic cell case, an electrolytic cell upper plate having gas outlet nipples mounted thereon and sealed, coupled to the top surface of the cell case to form a secured sealing between edges of the upper plate and the cell case, an auxiliary electrolyte tank connected to the electrolytic cell case, wherein the auxiliary tank maintains the surface level of the electrolyte contained therein identical to that of the electrolyte contained in the electrolytic cell case; a forced electrolyte circulating and cooling device connected to the line style electrolytic cell to maintain the temperature of the electrolyte below a predetermined temperature; and an automatic feed water device to continuously feed supplementary water to the interior of the electrolytic cell in response to the operation of the auxiliary electrolyte tank; wherein the electrode unit comprises: a left and a right side plate mounted on a base plate, an upper and lower fixing bar fixedly coupled to square grooves formed at equal intervals on the top and bottom surfaces of the side plates by means of stud bolts, (+) electrode plates securely fitted into a plurality of insertion indented grooves formed at equal intervals on the bottom and top surfaces of the upper and lower fixing bars and crosswisely aligned while the insulation bars being interposed therebetween, (−) electrode plates securely fitted into the insertion indented grooves formed at equal intervals on the bottom and top_surfaces of the next upper and lower fixing bars with them being rotated at an angle of 180° and crosswisely aligned while insulation bars are interposed therebetween, wherein the (+) and (−) electrode plates are crosswisely aligned to face each other in their half area, respectively while also being lengthwisely alternately aligned to be overlappingly disposed to each other.
