Background of the Invention
Nowadays in the society, along with the scientific development day after day and the human beings' pursuit of newer ideal, various civilized products are born without end. For example, the annual yield of the commonest means of transportion--the automobile--has been steadily increasing year after year. Everyday thousands and millions of automobiles are running on the highways everywhere, but the dirty smoke (exhaust gas) discharged by these automobiles does harm to the health of human beings. This undesirable situation has now become the most serious personal problem. Therefore, how to effectively and rapidly prevent such dangers to health from happening depends on our common effort. In view of the above, the inventor of the present invention has spared no effort to study and test it for many years and eventually created the said automobile dirty smoke eliminator.
Summary of the Invention
The above-said automobile dirty smoke eliminator can eliminate the dirty smoke (exhaust gas) from the automobile engine and decrease the damage caused by said smoke to their health. The outstanding advantages of the present invention are described as follows:
(1) The automobile dirty smoke eliminator of the present invention with a handy appearance and a portable construction is extremely effective, because the gas exhausted by the discharge pipe of said eliminator is a colorless, odorless, nontoxious and fog-like vapor.
(2) The installation of a collateral water tank of the present invention depends on the types of automobile. It can be installed beneath the chassis of a cargo truck, in the rear of a bus driver's cab or in the trunk of a car. A pipe from the installed water tank is connected with the water filler at the front end of the lower exhaust pipe of the present invention which can be continuously used for 8 hours and then the water is refilled into tank. It is extremely simple and convenient to clean the dirty water every other 24 hours.
(3) On account of the effect of the support plates to block the bubbles, the present invention can eliminate the noise of the engine and achieve the result of entirely deadening such noise. Therefore it is unnecessary to install a muffler for the automobile exhaust pipe.
(4) The automobile dirty smoke eliminator of the present invention with a magic result is derived from experimentation and proof for many years and can achieve the purpose of entirely eliminating the said dirty smoke (exhaust gas).
In view of the above, putting the present invention into practice will be extremely wide-spread and practicable. According to our market survey and information collected, such an invention will play an extremely active role in the automobile industry. In a word, such an invention is an extremely thoughtful masterpiece of the inventor.

Description of the Preferred Embodiment
Now with reference to the drawings mentioned above, the structure of the present invention is described in detail as follows:
As shown in the Figures, the present invention mainly consists of two oval tin plates 1 externally, and upper and lower exhaust pipes 2 and 3, a water filler 21 at the front end of lower exhaust pipe 2 for applying water from tank 24', blade 22 at the rear end thereof, left and right support plates 4 and 5, discharge chamber 6, discharge pipe 7, screw hole 11, internally. The present invention is primarily connected with the end of automobile exhaust pipe by means of a water pipe and is filled with water from the pre-set water tank 24' through the water filler 21 at the front end of lower exhaust pipe 2 so that a water level is formed as shown in FIG. 2. When the automobile engine is started and heated for 5 minutes, the dirty smoke (exhaust gas) thereof will enter into the lower exhaust pipe 2 of the present invention through the automobile exhaust pipe and impact the blade 22 at the outlet of lower exhaust pipe submerged in the said water level by mean of the compression force derived from the engine exhaust stroke so as to generate a mixture of said water and exhaust gas therein and to form a whirlpool. Since the density of bubbles derived from the said mixture is lighter than that of water, and as a result of the force of said whirlpool, the bubbles rise rapidly toward the support plates 4 and 5. Because the rising bubbles contains CO.sub.2, N.sub.2 and SO.sub.2 exhausted by the engine, when these bubbles collide with these support plates 4 and 5, these bubbles will break the such toxins as said CO.sub.2, N.sub.2 and SO.sub.2 therein, and these toxins will collide with the walls of said support plates 4 and 5 or flow down along these walls to mix with the water therein. Therefore, most of these toxins will deposit in the water because they collide with these walls, and a few of these toxins will move forward to the front end through the support plates orifices 41 and 51 to collide with the inner walls of tin plates 1 and run into the upper exhaust pipe 3 wherefrom they are exhausted. (Also, on account of the effect of impacting the support plates 4 and 5, the bubbles can also deaden the automobile noise, and these support plates 4 and 5 can also support the exhaust pipes 2 and 3.) A few of bubbles exhausted from the exhaust pipe 3 will once again mix with the water in the discharge chamber and form a fog-like vapor to rise because they are not subject to the impact of blade 22, so they exhaust from the discharge pipe 7 as a colorless, odorless and nontoxious fog-like vapor. It is very simple and convenient to drain the dirty water deposited in the said water level by opening the screw hole 11 at the right bottom for cleaning the interior of the present invention.
