Abstract

A water well immersion device intended for the treatment of water within wells based galvanic current generation. The unit maintains the continuous generation of galvanic electricity as the components age through adjustable mechanical features that ensure the continuous optimal connectivity between the galvanic electricity generating components.

Claims (27)

1. A galvanic water processing apparatus comprising:

a first group of elongated members, said first group formed from one or more elongated members formed in all or part from a first group of metals;

a second group of elongated members, said second group formed from one or more elongated members formed in all or part from a second group of metals;

each said first group of elongated members placed in electrical contact with a portion of at least one member of said second elongated member group; and

one or more self-adjusting diameter compression retaining rings, each said retaining ring compressing one or more members of said first group of elongated members against one or more members of said second group of elongated members.

2. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein:

one or more of said self-adjusting diameter compression retaining ring are comprised of a spring coiled material stretched around said first and second groups; and

one or more retaining caps are placed at the end of said first and second group of elongated members assembly.

3. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein:

one or more said self-adjusting diameter compression retaining ring are comprised of a non-continuous perimeter retainer ring having a gap, so that over time said retainer ring keeps said first and second groups in contact over time; and

said first group of metals is comprised of at least one of the metals from the group of:

copper, zinc and/or silver; and

said second group of metals is comprised of at least one of the metals from the group of:

stainless steel and/or platinum.

4. The apparatus of claim 3 wherein:

said first group and second group of elongated members is comprised of at least one shape from the group of:

tubes, rods, pipes, cannulas, sticks or similar circular or similar elliptical shaped perimeters and/or multi-shaped external shapes.

5. The apparatus of claim 4 wherein:

one or more retaining caps are placed at the end of said first and second group of elongated members assembly.

6. A galvanic water processing apparatus comprising;

one or more copper, zinc and/or silver tubes in electrical contact with a central stainless steel and/or platinum tube;

one or more self-adjusting diameter compression retaining rings mechanically pressing said one or more copper, zinc and/or silver tubes to said central tube, wherein one or more of said self-adjusting diameter compression retaining ring are comprised of a spring coiled material stretched around said first and second groups; and

one or more retaining caps.

7. A galvanic water processing apparatus comprising;

one or more stainless steel and/or platinum tubes in electrical contact with a central copper, zinc and/or silver tube;

one or more self-adjusting diameter compression retaining rings mechanically pressing said one or more stainless steel and/or platinum tubes to said central copper, zinc and/or silver tube, wherein one or more said self-adjusting diameter compression retaining ring are comprised of a non-continuous perimeter retainer ring having a gap, so that over time said retainer ring keeps said first and second groups in contact over time; and

one or more retaining caps.
