Abstract

Apparatus for keeping liquids pure, i.e. for preventing the development of putrefaction bacteria in water container, uses 2 conductive, connected metals from the positive electrochemical series, which are biologically harmless to humans in trace concentrations, e.g. silver-copper, and not connected to an external source of current, to release bactericidal ions, and added inert salt to increase the conductivity of the solution. Apparatus for keeping liquids pure, i.e. for preventing the development of putrefaction bacteria in water containers, especially fragrance dispensers, uses a combination of 2 conductive, connected metals from the positive electrochemical series, which are biologically harmless to humans in trace concentrations, e.g. silver (Ag)-copper (Cu), gold (Au)-Cu, Au-Ag etc. The slight potential difference e.g. in the Ag-Cu combination, is sufficient to release traces of Cu ions at the anode, to destroy putrefaction bacteria, without connecting the apparatus to an external source of current. The conductivity of the solution is increased by the hydrolytic formation of hydronium ions (H3O<+>) by adding 1-10 g/l inert salt with has no tendency to form complexes or insoluble salts with the ions concerned, e.g. magnesium sulfate (MgSO4).

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Einrichtung zur Reinhaltung von Flüssigkeiten in Wasserbehältern, insbesondere von Duftspendern. Sie trägt zur Vermeidung der Entwicklung von Fäulnisbakterien in den Wasserbehältern bei und kann auch zur Konservierung von Holzpfählen genutzt werden.The invention relates to a device for keeping clean Liquids in water containers, especially from Fragrance dispensers. It helps to avoid the development of Putrefactive bacteria in the water tanks and can also cause Preservation of wooden posts can be used.

Bekannt ist die biocide Wirkung von Metallspuren auf Mikroorganismen. Verfahren und Einrichtungen für derartige Zwecke gemäß Oberbegriff des Patentanspruches 1 sind nicht bekannt geworden.The biocidal effect of metal traces is known Microorganisms. Methods and devices for such Purposes according to the preamble of claim 1 are not known.

Nachteilig bei den bekannten Lösungen ist die Beeinflussung der Inhaltsstoffe des Wassers und mangelnde Wirtschaftlichkeit.The influencing is disadvantageous in the known solutions the ingredients of water and lack Economics.

Hier will die Erfindung Abhilfe schaffen.The invention seeks to remedy this.

Die Erfindung hat die Aufgabe, eine Einrichtung zur Reinhaltung von Flüssigkeiten, d. h. zur Vermeidung der Entwicklung von Fäulnisbakterien in Wasserbehältern zu entwickeln.The invention has for its object a device for Keeping liquids clean, d. H. to avoid the Development of putrefactive bacteria in water tanks too develop.

Erfindungsgemäß wird die Aufgabe durch die angegebenen Merkmale des Patentanspruchs gelöst.According to the invention, the object is specified by the Features of the claim solved.

Der Vorteil der Erfindung besteht in einer einfachen und kostengünstigen Gestaltung der Vorrichtung und einer wartungsfreien, zeitlich fast unbegrenzten Wirksamkeit der Anlage.The advantage of the invention is simple and inexpensive design of the device and one maintenance-free, almost unlimited effectiveness of the Investment.

Die Erfindung wird anhand eines Ausführungsbeispiels näher erläutert: The invention is illustrated by an embodiment explains:  

Reines Kupferblech oder Kupfernetz von ca. 25 cm2 Fläche wird in eine geeignete Form (Rolle, Schale, u. ä.) gebracht, um passend in ein firmenübliches Netzgitter eingeführt zu werden. Ein Teil der Fläche, ca. 4 cm2, wird durch Aufbringen einer geringen Menge 0,1%-iger Silbernitratlösung versilbert. Die Ecken des Bleches werden mit dünnem Silberdraht (ca. 10 cm Länge, 0,1 mm Durchmesser) vernetzt. Das Netz mit der Einrichtung wird in den Wasserbehälter eingehängt.Pure copper sheet or copper mesh of approx. 25 cm 2 area is brought into a suitable shape (roll, shell, etc.) in order to be inserted appropriately into a company-standard mesh grid. Part of the area, approx. 4 cm 2 , is silvered by applying a small amount of 0.1% silver nitrate solution. The corners of the sheet are cross-linked with thin silver wire (approx. 10 cm in length, 0.1 mm in diameter). The network with the device is suspended in the water tank.
