DEVICE FOR EXTRACTING WATER DROPLET FROM AMBIENT AIR
The present invention provides an atmospheric water generator for extracting water droplets from ambient air which includes an insulating substrate, a plurality of electrode film units, and a liquid crystal/polymer composite film. Each of surface regions of the liquid crystal/polymer composite film has a plurality of liquid crystal molecules each having a hydrophilic functional group and a hydrophobic moiety. Each of the surface regions normally has one of hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties. When a voltage is applied to one of the electrode film units, the respective surface region is switched to have the other one of hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties, to thereby allow the water droplets condensed from the ambient air to move on the surface regions.
本发明提供一种由环境空气中撷取水滴的装置,包含绝缘基板、多个电极膜单元,及液晶聚合物复合膜,每一个电极膜单元包含第一电极及第二电极,该液晶聚合物复合膜覆盖所述电极膜单元并包括与环境空气接触的接触面及多个液晶分子,每一个液晶分子具有亲水部分及疏水部分,通过施加电压于该第一电极及该第二电极而产生电场,而改变所述液晶分子的排列位向,使该接触面具有亲水性,进而使环境空气中的水汽易于该接触面凝结而被收集。
