Abstract

The potable water contacts light-conducting materials, minerals and air bubbles. Preferred features: The water vessel has high visible- and ultraviolet waveband transmissivity. Light radiated in, leaves through suitable geometric formations of the vessel internal surface. Water and light source are separated by an interchangeable colored filter. The water is mixed with air bubbles, using mechanically- or electrically driven pumps. Air can be introduced using a water jet which reduces pressure. Air is introduced through diffusers or nozzles. Minerals can be held replaceably in a perforated holder, allowing flooding with water. Air may be introduced through open-pored minerals.

Description

Verwendung eines Apparats zur Qualitätsverbesserung von Trinkwasser durch Einwirkung von Licht Mineralien und Luftblasen für Privathaushalte und medizinisch versorgende Einrichtungen.Use of an apparatus for improving the quality of drinking water by exposure of light minerals and air bubbles for households and medical supplies Facilities.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt das Problem zugrunde daß herkömmliche Trinkwasserfilter oder die Kombination von Trinkwasserfilter und Sodawasserbereiter keine individuell einstellbare Geschmacksrichtung von Trinkwasser bewirken. Zudem wird die Vermehrung von Keimen im Trinkwasser durch Temperaturabsenkung nur eingeschränkt bei erhöhter Keimanzahl ist jedoch eine Reduzierung nötig.The present invention addresses the problem that conventional ones Drinking water filter or the combination of drinking water filter and soda water maker none individually adjustable taste of drinking water. In addition, the Propagation of germs in drinking water by temperature reduction only limited with an increased number of germs, however, a reduction is necessary.

Die Verwendung von Trinkwasserfiltern oder die Kombination von Trinkwasserfilter und Sodawasserbereiter ist in vielen Haushalten heute üblich. Das gefilterte Leitungswasser entspricht oft nicht dem gewohnten Geschmack von z. B. stillem Mineralwasser. Für die Benutzer dieser Wasserfilter besteht der Bedarf der Qualitätsverbesserung ohne Zusatz von Kohlensäure. Die Durchmischung des Wassers im Behälter durch Luftblasen verhindert den faden, abgestandenen visuellen und geschmacklichen Eindruck von aufbereitetem Leitungswasser und frischt den Geschmack auf, ohne den Geschmack ins Saure zu verschieben, wie beim Zusatz von Kohlensäure.The use of drinking water filters or the combination of drinking water filters and Soda water heater is common in many households today. The filtered tap water often does not correspond to the usual taste of z. B. still mineral water. For the For users of these water filters, there is a need for quality improvement without addition of carbonic acid. Mixing the water in the tank with air bubbles  prevents the bland, stale visual and taste impression of treated tap water and refreshes the taste without losing the taste Acid shift, like adding carbonic acid.

Zudem ist der Geschmack des Leitungswassers von der geologischen Lage des Trinkwasserreservoirs und von der Art des zugemischten Wassers abhangig, z. B. von Oberflächenwasser aus Flüssen und von Trinkwasseraufbereitungsanlagen der Wasserwirtschaft. Mineralwasser muß laut Mineralwasser-Verordnung aus einer unterirdischen Quelle stammen, die vor Verunreinigung geschützt ist. Es muß von ursprünglicher Reinheit sein und bestimmte ernährungsphysiologische Wirkungen haben. Der Mineralstoffgehalt liegt bei Mineralwasser in der Regel wesentlich über dem von Trinkwasser aus der Wasserleitung. Eine Anreicherung erwünschter, gelöster, mineralischer Bestandteile im Trinkwasserbehälter dient der selbstbestimmten Verbesserung der Wasserqualität in Richtung des Mineralwassers.In addition, the taste of the tap water depends on the geological location of the Drinking water reservoirs and depending on the type of water mixed, e.g. B. from Surface water from rivers and drinking water treatment plants Water management. According to the Mineral Water Ordinance, mineral water must come from a underground source, which is protected from pollution. It must be from be of original purity and have certain nutritional effects. The mineral content in mineral water is usually significantly higher than that of Drinking water from the water pipe. Enrichment of desired, solved, mineral components in the drinking water tank serve the self-determined Improvement of water quality in the direction of mineral water.

Die Vermehrung von Keimen wird durch Aufbewahrung des gefilterten Trinkwassers bei Kühlschranktemperatur eingeschränkt, die grundsätzliche Reduzierung von Keimen wird bei herkömmlichen Trinkwasserfiltern jedoch nicht angestrebt. Eine Möglichkeit, ohne chemische Zusatze Trinkwasser zu entkeimen, liegt in der Bestrahlung mit ultraviolettem Licht oder Licht im sichtbaren Bereich und Filterung bestimmter Wellenlängenbereiche.The multiplication of germs is assisted by storing the filtered drinking water Refrigerator temperature is limited, the basic reduction of germs However, this is not aimed at with conventional drinking water filters. One way without Sterilizing chemical additives Drinking water lies in the irradiation with ultraviolet Light or light in the visible range and filtering of certain wavelength ranges.

Die mit der Erfindung erzielten Vorteile bestehen darin, daß eine prophylaktische Entkeimung durch Lichteinfluß bewirkt wird, während andere Verfahren nur das Keimwachstum hemmen. Eine grundsatzliche Verbesserung des Geschmacks wird durch Mischung des Wassers mit Luft erreicht. Eine weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist, daß der Geschmack des Trinkwassers durch Lösen von Mineralien im Trinkwasser individuell geändert werden kann, indem ausgesuchte, auswechselbare Mineralien zugegeben werden können. Auf diese Weise kann ein erhöhter Mineralstoffgehalt wie bei Mineralwasser, also auch die Qualität von Mineralwasser, erreicht werden.The advantages achieved with the invention are that a prophylactic Disinfection is effected by the influence of light, while other procedures only do that Inhibit germ growth. A fundamental improvement in taste is achieved by Mixing of water with air is achieved. Another advantageous embodiment of the Invention is that the taste of drinking water by dissolving minerals in the Drinking water can be changed individually by selected, replaceable Minerals can be added. This way, an increased Mineral content as with mineral water, i.e. the quality of mineral water become.

Die vorliegende Erfindung unterstützt den Wunsch der Selbstverantwortlichkeit der Benutzer von herkömmlichen Trinkwasserfiltern und Sodawasserbereitern. Diese Benutzer schenken ihrer Nahrungsaufnahme in der Regel eine höhere Beachtung und befassen sich individuell mit gesundheitlichen Aspekten der Ernährung.The present invention supports the desire for personal responsibility Users of conventional drinking water filters and soda water heaters. These users usually pay more attention to their food intake and deal with individually with health aspects of nutrition.
