Hydrogen Energy Systems
A hydrogen energy system comprising galvanic hydrogen generators and
hydrogen input manifolds for vehicle engines. The galvanic hydrogen
generators generate hydrogen gas, magnesium hydroxide, and heat by the
galvanic reaction of magnesium anodes with steel cathodes in salt water.
Heat exchangers channel excess heat to a heat sink such as a
thermocouple, Stirling engine, hot water system, etc. The hydrogen input
manifold is bolted between the engine block and the air intake manifold
of a gasoline or diesel engine. Hydrogen gas is injected into the
hydrogen input manifold to provide supplementary fuel to the engine,
lowering the amount of petroleum that is used.

Snake
Repellent System
A snake repellent system for use in
repelling snakes so as to prevent the human user from being
bitten. The snake repellent system consists of a receptacle
into which is placed a quantity of garlic or onion, the
aroma of which is believed to be effective in repelling
snakes. The receptacle is provided with a lid having a
plurality of openings for facilitating the dispersal of the
garlic or onion aroma. The receptacle may be provided with a
mincing rack used to mince a clove of garlic, thereby more
fully releasing its aroma. The receptacle may also be
provided with a means to both limit child access to the
repellent substance within the receptacle and prevent
removal of the repellent substance from the lid openings. An
adjustable band is provided for attaching the receptacle to
the arm or leg of the user.

Fuel-Efficient Tractor-Trailer System
A fuel-efficient tractor-trailer system
for improving the fuel mileage of a tractor-trailer
combination by improving the air resistance that occurs in
the area between the rear of the tractor and the front of
the semi-trailer. The fuel-efficient tractor-trailer system
provides an improved roof extension, which automatically
raises when the tractor is put into reverse gear and an
improved wheel mechanism for assisting the side extensions
to slide around the semi-trailer ends when the
tractor-trailer is turning. The fuel-efficient
tractor-trailer system requires only modification to the
tractor and not the trailer.

Waste Oil
Electrical Generation Systems
An on-site electrical power generation system
utilizing environmentally hazardous waste oils as a
combustible fuel. The disclosed invention utilizes
environmentally hazardous waste oils generated by one or
more on-site processes, such as, for example, by the
maintenance of transportation vehicles. In addition, the
system is adapted to provide local space heating and hot
water as a byproduct of the combustion process. |
