ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for the electrolysis of water comprises an elongated tube and an electrolysis assembly provided at one end of the tube defining an interior chamber which constitutes an extension thereof. The electrolysis assembly includes at least one fixed stator and at least one rotatably mounted rotor and drive means for rotating the rotor in the form of propeller blades mounted on a shaft which is connected to a transmission to the rotor. A pair of fixed electrodes extend across the interior chamber of the electrolysis assembly. A matrix of Wiegand modules are affixed to the rotor and a corresponding matrix of magnet pairs are fixed to the stator. Appropriate circuitry is provided which couples the positive and negative leads of the Wiegand modules to respective ones of the electrodes. When the tube is immersed in a body of water so that its upper end extends out from the water and so that the electrolysis assembly is completely immersed, water tends to rush into the interior chamber under equilibrium forces whereby water tends to seek its own level to rotate the drive means thereby rotating the rotor relative to the stator whereupon the Wiegand modules generate a voltage which is impressed across the electrodes to electrolyze water which comes into contact therewith.
