Description

DEVICE FOR SANITARY WATER DISINFECTING FROM NETWORK

OBJECT OF THE INVENTION

The present invention refers to a device for disinfecting mains sanitary water, for use in personal hygiene.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

There are people who prefer to keep their skin disinfected and free of germs and microbes. In addition, in health emergency situations such as those we are experiencing due to the SARS COV2 virus, the general population is being recommended to take extreme personal hygiene of hands and face.

At present, this disinfection can be done with soaps and other liquids that pollute the environment and waste water, so it must be treated before returning it to natural channels, assuming energy expenditure and the need for expensive water treatment plants. residuals that must be permanently expanded and maintained to provide the required service.

These drawbacks are solved with the use of the device of the invention.

DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The device for disinfecting mains sanitary water of the invention serves especially to disinfect the water coming out of a water mains, for washing or taking a shower, and according to the invention, it comprises:

-a water treatment tank, where a volume of water is stored, as a lung, for its treatment, and which includes a filling outlet (ideally with a valve controlled by level by means of a float or similar) to connect to a tap of sanitary water belonging to the network, and also includes an outlet for the treated water, and

- an ozone generator, comprising an ozone outlet that empties into said tank to ozonate the water contained therein.

In this way, the water stored in the tank and that will be used for personal hygiene (shower, hand or mouth washing) is completely free of pathogens, and is also a disinfectant by itself while the ozone contained in it finishes decomposing. her, so it serves to disinfect the skin.

Likewise, the use of the invention reduces the volume of wastewater generated, because it lacks detergents, and as an additional advantage it reduces the biological oxygen demand of the water as ozone is unstable and ends up decomposing / combining into O ² .

Therefore, we obtain ozonated water for personal hygiene, which has great bactericidal and germicidal power, without having effects on the environment. For example, used in the shower, it can be used to disinfect the whole body, since this ozonated water disinfects and eliminates bacteria, germs and viruses due to the bactericidal, virucidal and fungicidal properties of ozone, which is a powerful disinfectant and antiseptic highly effective, rapidly destroying streptococci, staphylococci, colibacilli and other bacteria, as well as the most energetic diphtheria and tetanus toxins.

Indeed, the microbicidal action (against bacteria, viruses, fungi or spores) is the most important property of ozone. Since the most common contaminants in water fall into this category, the effectiveness is complete. The bactericidal effect is evident at low concentrations (0.01 p.p.m. or less), and during very short exposure periods a bacteriostatic effect is already perfectly observable, preventing the reproduction of bacteria. The virucidal effect of ozone oxidizes virus envelope proteins, modifying their three-dimensional structure. When this happens, the virus cannot bind to any host cell because it does not recognize its anchor point, and being unprotected, it cannot reproduce and dies. The fungicidal and sporicidal effect of ozone is very important, since it is capable of eliminating them even in a latent state, since it creates conditions in the environment such that spores and fungi are radically eliminated.

DESCRIPTION OF A PRACTICAL EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION

The device (1) for disinfecting sanitary water from the network (2) of the invention disinfects the water from a network, usable for taking a shower, washing, and provides it with a temporary disinfectant capacity, being able to replace or complement other detergents.

According to the invention, the device (1) comprises:

-a water treatment tank (3) where a volume of water is stored for treatment, comprising a filling outlet (30) with a level valve (32) controlled by a float or similar, to connect to a tap ( 20) of sanitary water belonging to the network (2), and an outlet (31) of the treated water, and

- an ozone generator (4) comprising an ozone outlet (40) that empties into said tank (3) to ozonate the water (100) contained therein.

In the preferred embodiment shown in the figures, an impulsion pump (5) has been arranged in the outlet (31) of the treated water of the treated water (and a non-return valve (50) to avoid plastering), to drive the water output.

Furthermore, at the ozone outlet (40) of the ozone generator (4) a blowing pump (42) has been arranged to which a blowing tube (43) is connected submerged in the water (100) contained in the tank (3). In this way, the ozone (101) is blown into the water (100) to promote the treatment throughout its volume.

The ozone generator (4) ideally comprises a programmer or timer (44), to carry out the treatment according to a program that ensures its effectiveness

Additionally, the device can comprise additive containers (6) connected to the tank (3) to inject said additives into the treated water. The additive containers (6) will comprise the corresponding outlet regulators (60) such as valves or the like. Said additives can be, for example, essential oils, detergents, fabric softeners, etc.

In the preferred example of the invention, it has been applied to a shower (80) (see fig 1), in this case the treated water outlet (31) comprising a conduit (310) connectable to the sprinkler (8) of the itself.

Indicate that it is preferred that the ozone generator (4), pumps (5, 42), power supply (9) corresponding and additive containers (6) are arranged inside the tank (3) forming a compact set that improves its installation.

Having sufficiently described the nature of the invention, as well as the way it is carried out in practice, it should be noted that the provisions indicated above and represented in the attached drawings are susceptible to modifications in detail as long as they do not alter the fundamental principle.
