Device for preventing electrolyzed products from further reactions

Abstract

A device for preventing electrolyzed products from further reactions having a driver, a cathode, an anode, an electrode axis, an insulation inner tube, an electrode outer tube, and an insulation outer tube, the anode has a plurality of through holes and an axis hole in the center position thereof, the anode is placed above the cathode, the electrode axis is driven to rotate by the driver, the insulation inner tube encasingly covers the electrode axis and goes through the axis hole on the anode, with the bottom end thereof being connected to the cathode, whereas the electrode outer tube encasingly covers the insulation inner tube, with the bottom end thereof being connected to the anode, the insulation outer tube is installed on the anode and covers the outer part of the electrode outer tube, forming a channel between the insulation outer tube and the electrode outer tube, the through holes on the anode are disposed within the area of the channel as the escape paths for the gas product generated at the anode, thereby the gas will not recombine with the metal product produced at the cathode, a design that can effectively reduce the product loss and lower the energy consumption.

What is claimed is:  
     
         1 . A device for preventing electrolyzed products from further reactions, comprising: 
 a driver;    a cathode;    an anode having a plurality of through holes and an axis hole at the center thereof, with said anode being placed above the cathode;    an electrode axis to be driven by said driver into rotation;    an insulation inner tube encasingly covering said electrode axis and goes through said axis hole of said anode, with the bottom end thereof being connected to said cathode;    an electrode outer tube encasingly covering said insulation inner tube, with the bottom end thereof being connected to said anode; and    an insulation outer tube installed on said anode, encasingly covering the outer part of said electrode outer tube, so as to form a channel between said insulation outer tube and said electrode outer tube, the plurality of through holes on said anode being disposed within the area of said channel.    
     
     
         2 . The device for preventing electrolyzed products from further reactions of  claim 1 , wherein the electrolyte is a chemical selected from the group comprising KCl and LiCl.  
     
     
         3 . The device for preventing electrolyzed products from further reactions of  claim 1 , wherein the area of said cathode is larger than that of the anode.  
     
     
         4 . The device for preventing electrolyzed products from further reactions of  claim 1 , wherein said insulation outer tube is made of ceramic.  
     
     
         5 . The device for preventing electrolyzed products from further reactions of  claim 1 , wherein said insulation inner tube is made of ceramic.
