Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a water treatment apparatus for magnetizing water by applying a magnetic field, thereby purifying the water.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art For example, when a water pipe is deteriorated, red rust or scale adheres to the inside of the water pipe, causing a deterioration in water quality. There have been proposed many water treatment apparatuses for improving the quality of tap water whose water quality has been reduced in this way.

As one example, a water treatment apparatus disclosed in Japanese Patent No. 2622911 is shown in FIGS. FIG. 8 is a plan view of this water treatment apparatus, and FIG.
It is sectional drawing in the B line.

[0004] The water treatment apparatus 50 shown in FIG. 8 has a cylindrical outer case 51, a first treated water storage section 52 into which the treated water flows and is temporarily stored, and a water treated treated water. A second to-be-processed water storage part 53 that is temporarily stored.

As shown in FIG. 9, inside the outer case 51, four water passage pipes 54 each having an outer surface coated with a far-infrared radiating material, and a water passage pipe adjacent to the water passage pipe 54. Permanent magnets 55 arranged on both sides of the pipe 54 are provided. The water passage pipes 54 are arranged in two rows of two pipes, and a total of three permanent magnets 55 are arranged on both sides of each row.

[0006] The water treatment device 50 operates as follows.

[0007] The water to be treated flows into the first treated water storage part 52, and is temporarily stored in the first treated water storage part 52, and then is passed through the water passage pipe 5 arranged in the outer case 51.
4 Since the far-infrared radiation material is applied to the outer surface of the water passage pipe 54, the water to be treated is activated by heat radiation from the far-infrared radiation material.

Further, the water to be treated is subjected to an electronic excitation effect caused by the magnetic field formed by the permanent magnet 55,
Fine particles. The finely divided water promotes dissolution of red rust and the like, so that red rust and other dirt adhering to the inner wall of the water pipe are removed and red rust is prevented from re-adhering.

[0009]

As described above, in the conventional water treatment apparatus 50 shown in FIGS. 8 and 9, a plurality of permanent magnets 55 are arranged inside an outer case 51, and these permanent magnets 55 are disposed. The water to be treated is atomized by the action of the magnetic field formed by the magnet 55.

[0010] As described above, in a water treatment apparatus for purifying water using a magnetic action, how to effectively apply a magnetic field to the water to be treated is a very important factor.

However, in the conventional water treatment apparatus 50 shown in FIGS. 8 and 9, the permanent magnets 55 are simply arranged around the water passage pipe 54, and the magnetic field is not necessarily effectively applied to the water to be treated. It is not what is acting.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above-described problems in the conventional water treatment apparatus, and has been developed to effectively apply a magnetic field to the water to be treated and increase the water purification efficiency. It is an object to provide a processing device.

[0013]

In order to achieve this object, of the present invention, at least one first water pipe made of a non-magnetic member and a first water pipe are provided. First magnetic means for applying magnetic fields from three different directions to the fluid flowing inside the pipe, a case connected to the first water pipe, and a mineral ball filled in the case And a water treatment apparatus comprising:

As the magnetic means, for example, three sets of N-pole and S-pole magnets can be used. These three sets of magnets are arranged around the water pipe to form magnetic fields in three different directions.

For example, the conventional water treatment apparatus 5 shown in FIG.
0, permanent magnets 55 are provided on both sides of the water pipe 54.
Are merely arranged, so that the permanent magnet 55 forms a magnetic field in only one direction.

On the other hand, in the water treatment apparatus according to the present invention, as described above, magnetic fields in three different directions are formed, and these magnetic fields act on the fluid flowing through the water pipe at the same time. It is possible to magnetize and eventually purify the fluid.

Further, the fluid magnetized by the magnetic means flows into a case filled with mineral balls, and minerals are supplied from the mineral balls to the fluid. Thus, the fluid becomes a mineral-containing fluid by passing through the case filled with mineral balls.

In particular, since the clusters in the fluid have already been miniaturized by magnetic means, pollutants in the fluid are less likely to adhere to the mineral balls, and the degree of contamination of the mineral balls by the fluid is extremely low. It's getting late.

The mineral ball is a sphere made of ceramics containing barley stone as a main component.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, at least one second water flow pipe made of a non-magnetic member and connected to the case, on the opposite side of the first water flow pipe, and the second water flow pipe. A second magnetic means for applying magnetic fields to the fluid flowing inside the water pipe from three different directions is provided.

In the water treatment apparatus according to the second aspect, a combination of a water passage pipe and a magnetic means is disposed on both sides of the case where the case is filled with mineral balls. For this reason, compared with the water treatment apparatus described in claim 1, the time for applying a magnetic field to the fluid can be lengthened, and the fluid can be more efficiently magnetized and purified.

According to the water treatment apparatus of the second aspect, the combination of the water pipe and the magnetic means is arranged symmetrically with respect to the case filled with mineral balls, so that it can be arranged in any direction. The fluid can be introduced from the water treatment device, and the water treatment device can be used bidirectionally.

A third aspect of the present invention is a mineral ball insertion mouthpiece removably attached to an upper portion of the case, a spring member mounted inside the mouthpiece to exert a downward pressing force, and a lower end of the spring member. A water treatment apparatus further comprising: a mounted mineral ball pressing plate member.

The water treatment apparatus according to the present invention can be used, for example, as a water treatment apparatus for a water pipe, in which case, it is used while buried in the soil. In such a case, once the water treatment device is buried in the soil, it is extremely difficult to replace even if the mineral balls are deteriorated. Exchange of mineral balls via the.

In addition, burying in the soil may corrode the palate for a long period of time. Therefore, by forming the palate detachably, the corroded palate can be easily replaced.

The diameter of the mineral ball is reduced during long-term use. Mineral balls having a reduced diameter may be eccentrically distributed downstream due to the flow pressure of the fluid. For this reason, a spring member for applying a downward pressing force is attached to the inside of the palate portion, and a plate member is further attached to the lower end of the spring member. Uneven distribution can be prevented.

[0027] As described in claim 4, it is preferable that the palate is provided at a position closer to the first water pipe than the center of the case.

For example, when the fluid flows from the first water pipe, the fluid receives more mineral from the mineral balls located near the first water pipe. For this reason, the diameter of the mineral ball located closer to the first water pipe is reduced earlier, and accordingly, the replacement time comes earlier. For this reason, by providing the palate at a position close to the first water flow pipe, it is possible to efficiently exchange mineral balls having a reduced diameter.

As described in claim 5, the first or second magnetic means includes a magnetic means A for applying a magnetic field to the fluid flowing inside the water pipe in a first direction. A magnetic means B for applying a magnetic field to the fluid flowing inside the water pipe in a second direction different from the first direction; And magnetic means C for applying a magnetic field in a third direction different from the second direction, wherein the magnetic means A, B or C are mutually separated in the length direction of the water pipe. Is preferred.

According to the water treatment apparatus of the fifth aspect, the magnetic field can be applied to the fluid flowing inside the water pipe from three different directions.

Further, in the water treatment apparatus according to the present invention, the first, second and third magnetic means arranged to form magnetic fields in three directions are separated from each other. Therefore, unlike the water treatment apparatus according to claims 1 to 4, the number of magnetic means to be used can be reduced.
That is, the same effect as the water treatment apparatus according to the first to fourth aspects can be obtained with a smaller number of magnetic means than the water treatment apparatus according to the first to fourth aspects.

As described in claim 6, the three directions of the magnetic field formed by the magnetic means or the first, second and third directions are three directions forming an angle of 120 degrees with each other. Preferably, there is.

By setting the three directions for forming the magnetic field at equal intervals in this manner, the magnetic field can be uniformly applied to the fluid flowing inside the water pipe.

Further, as described in claim 7,
The water pipe preferably forms six planes on its outer surface, and the magnetic means is preferably located in each of the six planes.

For example, magnetic means such as permanent magnets are easier to attach on a flat surface than on a curved surface. Therefore, by forming a flat surface on the outer surface of the water flow pipe and mounting the magnetic means on the flat surface, the magnetic means can be easily mounted on the outer periphery of the water flow pipe. When a plate-shaped permanent magnet is used as the magnetic means, the permanent magnet can be more firmly attached to the outer surface of the water pipe.

In this case, as described in claim 8, the water passage pipe is a hollow pipe having a circular cross section.
Preferably, the individual planes are formed by cutting an arc-shaped outer surface.

Although a pipe having a hexagonal cross section may be used from the beginning, the outer surface of the water pipe having a circular cross section can be cut off to form a pair of opposing flat surfaces. If formed on the outer surface of the pipe for
Since the distance between the magnetic means arranged on these planes can be shortened, the magnetic means can be arranged closer to the fluid flowing inside the water pipe. Thereby, the magnitude of the magnetic field acting on the fluid can be increased. For example, magnetic means
mm, the magnetic force increases by about 100 Gauss.

The cap 25 is provided at a position closer to the water pipe 11 than the center of the case 23. FIG.
FIG. 2 is an enlarged perspective view of a water pipe 11. The water passage pipe 11 is made of a non-magnetic member such as plastic or aluminum, and has a circular cross section. Water pipe 11
On the outer surface of the magnet are three sets of permanent magnets 1 as magnetic means.
2a, 12b, 13a, 13b, 14a, and 14b are attached.

Each permanent magnet 12a, 12b, 13a, 13
b, 14a, and 14b are plate-shaped, and extend in the length direction of the water pipe 11.

As shown in FIG. 2, each set of permanent magnets 12a
And 12b, 13a and 13b, and 14a and 14b face each other with the water pipe 11 interposed therebetween.

Each of the permanent magnets 12a, 12b, 13a, 13
b, 14a and 14b are made of ferrite magnets,
It has a magnetic force of 0 to 1800 gauss. Permanent magnet 1
2a, 14a, and 13b have N-pole polarity, and the permanent magnets 13a, 12b, and 14b have S-pole polarity. That is, on the outer surface of the water pipe 11, N
Pole permanent magnets and S pole permanent magnets are alternately arranged.

Each of the permanent magnets 12a, 12b, 13a, 13

The water treatment device 20 according to the present embodiment operates as follows.

The water treatment apparatus 20 according to the present embodiment has a structure shown in FIG.
As shown, for example, as part of a water treatment plant,
Alternatively, it is used while being embedded in the underground 28 as a part of a water pipe.

The to-be-treated water flows into the first to-be-treated water storage part 21, where it is temporarily stored and then flows into the water pipe 11. When the water to be treated flows through the inside of the water pipe 11, the water to be treated flows into each of the permanent magnets 12a, 12b, 13a, 1
The magnetic field formed by 3b, 14a, and 14b crosses at right angles, and the water to be treated has an electronic excitation effect.
Because water has a certain degree of electrical conductivity, when water comes into contact with a magnetic field, energy conversion occurs between water molecules,
As a result, the water is atomized. Finely divided water has a high energy level and has an effect of promoting the decomposition of dirt such as red rust. Therefore, the water pipe 11
Red rust and other deposits on the inner wall of the
Further, red rust and the like are prevented from being attached again.

In particular, according to the present embodiment, magnetic fields are formed in three different directions by three sets of permanent magnets 12a and 12b, 13a and 13b, and 14a and 14b. The magnetic field works effectively on the treated water,
The red rust decomposition promoting function as described above is further enhanced.

The water to be treated purified as described above is
Next, it flows into the case 23 from the water pipe 11,
It contacts the mineral ball 22. The water to be treated that has come into contact with the mineral balls 22 flows into the second treated water storage unit 24 after receiving the mineral from the mineral balls 22.
The water to be treated is once stored here and then flows out of the water treatment device 20 to the outside.

As described above, according to the water treatment apparatus 20 of this embodiment, the water to be treated is composed of three sets of permanent magnets 12a and 1
Under the action of the magnetic field formed by 2b, 13a and 13b, and 14a and 14b, the particles are atomized and purified.

Further, even if the diameter of the mineral ball 22 is reduced during long-term use, it can be replaced via the cap 25. Further, since the cap 25 is detachably attached to the case 23, it can be easily replaced even if the cap 25 is corroded by burying it in the ground for a long time.

Further, the diameter of the mineral ball 22 is reduced during long-term use, but the reduced diameter mineral ball is pressed down by the plate member 27, so that the mineral ball 22 flows into the water to be treated. It is also possible to prevent uneven distribution downstream.

Since the water to be treated receives more mineral supply from the mineral balls 22 located closer to the water pipe 11, the diameter of the mineral balls closer to the water pipe 11 is reduced and the water is exchanged earlier. There must be. Since the cap 25 is provided at a position closer to the water pipe 11 than the center of the case 23, it is possible to efficiently exchange the mineral balls 22 having a reduced diameter.

The water treatment apparatus 20 according to the above-described embodiment is not limited to the above-described structure, and various changes can be made.

For example, in the above embodiment, each of the permanent magnets 12a, 12b, 13a, 13b, 14a, 14
Although a plate-shaped thing was used for b, it is not always necessary to use a plate-shaped thing. For example, magnetic means can be formed by arranging a square permanent magnet in a row in the length direction of the water pipe 11.

Further, when a rectangular permanent magnet is used, it is preferable that the permanent magnets are spaced apart from each other as shown in FIG.

In the water pipe 11 shown in FIG.
A first set of permanent magnets 15a and 15b are attached to the outer surface of the water pipe 11 so as to face each other.

It is attached to the outer surface of the water flow pipe 11 so as to form an angle of 120 degrees with the direction of the pipe. Further, a third set of permanent magnets 17a and 17b (in FIG.
Only a is shown. The permanent magnet 17b is located on the opposite side of the permanent magnet 17a and does not appear in FIG. ) Are opposed to each other, and make an angle of 120 degrees with the direction formed by the first set of permanent magnets 15a and 15b and the second set of permanent magnets 16a and 16b. Mounted on the outer surface.

b, 13a, 13b, 14a, 14b or 15 can be easily attached.

In the case of using the water pipe 16 having a hexagonal cross section, as shown in FIG. 4, the outer surface of the water pipe 11 (shown by a broken line), which was initially circular, is cut. Preferably, the water pipe 16 has a hexagonal cross section.

As described above, by cutting the outer surface of the circular water passage pipe 11 to form a hexagonal cross section water passage pipe, each permanent magnet 12a, 12b, 13a, 13
b, 14a, 14b or 15 can be attached closer to the center of the water pipe, so that the water to be treated flowing inside the water pipe 16 and each permanent magnet 12
a, 12b, 13a, 13b, 14a, 14b or 15
Can be further shortened. Therefore, each of the permanent magnets 12a, 12b, 13a, 13b, 14
The magnetic field formed by a, 14b, or 15 can act more strongly on the water to be treated. For example, when the distance between the permanent magnets is reduced by about 1 mm, the strength of the magnetic field acting between the permanent magnets increases by about 100 Gauss.

When six flat surfaces are formed on the outer surface of the water pipe 11, it is not always necessary to form the water pipe 11 into a hexagonal cross section. As shown in FIG. 5, six planes 17 are formed at equal intervals on the outer surface of the water passage pipe 11, and between these six planes 17, the arc-shaped outer surface 18 of the water passage pipe 11 is formed. It may be left.
