（実施の形態１）
図１は本発明の第１の実施の形態における酸素富化装置の一例を示している。１は酸素の透過性の優れたシリコン系の膜からなる酸素富化膜モジュール（酸素富化ユニット）である。酸素富化膜モジュール１は、メッシュ構造の樹脂フレームにシリコン系高分子膜を貼り付けた構成で、これを複数枚積層して構成している。枚数の増加によって、発生する酸素富化空気量を調整できる。２は真空ポンプである。酸素富化膜モジュール１の出口側に真空ポンプ２の吸込口を接続している。有機高分子膜は、窒素に比べ酸素がよく通るために、酸素富化膜モジュール１のフレーム内を真空ポンプ２によって吸引すると酸素富化空気が得られる。３は水を蓄えるタンクである。４はタンク３を冷却するためのペルチェ素子である。５は真空ポンプ２とペルチェ素子４を制御する制御回路である。６は、真空ポンプ２とタンク３をつなぐ供給配管であり、供給配管６の出口は、発泡金属からなる複数の通気口を有するキャップ７を設けている。 (Embodiment 1)
FIG. 1 shows an example of an oxygen enrichment apparatus according to the first embodiment of the present invention. Reference numeral 1 denotes an oxygen-enriched membrane module (oxygen-enriched unit) made of a silicon-based membrane having excellent oxygen permeability. The oxygen-enriched membrane module 1 has a configuration in which a silicon-based polymer membrane is attached to a mesh-structured resin frame, and a plurality of these are laminated. The amount of oxygen-enriched air generated can be adjusted by increasing the number of sheets. 2 is a vacuum pump. The suction port of the vacuum pump 2 is connected to the outlet side of the oxygen-enriched membrane module 1. Since oxygen passes through the organic polymer membrane better than nitrogen, oxygen-enriched air can be obtained by sucking the frame of the oxygen-enriched membrane module 1 with the vacuum pump 2. 3 is a tank for storing water. Reference numeral 4 denotes a Peltier element for cooling the tank 3. A control circuit 5 controls the vacuum pump 2 and the Peltier element 4. Reference numeral 6 denotes a supply pipe that connects the vacuum pump 2 and the tank 3, and an outlet of the supply pipe 6 is provided with a cap 7 having a plurality of vent holes made of foam metal.

次に、上記酸素富化装置の動作、作用について説明する。   Next, the operation and action of the oxygen enricher will be described.

制御回路５は、先ずペルチェ素子４に通電し、タンク３内の水温を１５℃以下にする。この温度以下になると飽和溶存酸素濃度が上がる。そして制御回路５は、真空ポンプ２の運転を開始させる。これにより、酸素富化膜モジュール１のフレーム内が真空になり、有機高分子膜を酸素が優先的に通過し、真空ポンプ２から供給配管６へと３０−４０％に酸素富化された空気が流れる。真空ポンプ２の吸引圧力が−６１ｋＰａならば、この空気の酸素濃度は約３０％程度になる。空気流量は２〜３Ｌ／ｍｉｎである。供給配管６の出口のキャップ７は多孔体であるので、微細な気泡を形成できる。この微細な気泡中の高濃度酸素が冷水に効果的に溶存し、水中の溶存酸素濃度が高まる。   The control circuit 5 first energizes the Peltier element 4 to lower the water temperature in the tank 3 to 15 ° C. or lower. Below this temperature, the saturated dissolved oxygen concentration increases. Then, the control circuit 5 starts the operation of the vacuum pump 2. As a result, the inside of the frame of the oxygen-enriched membrane module 1 is evacuated, oxygen preferentially passes through the organic polymer membrane, and the air enriched to 30-40% from the vacuum pump 2 to the supply pipe 6. Flows. If the suction pressure of the vacuum pump 2 is −61 kPa, the oxygen concentration of this air is about 30%. The air flow rate is 2 to 3 L / min. Since the cap 7 at the outlet of the supply pipe 6 is a porous body, fine bubbles can be formed. High-concentration oxygen in the fine bubbles is effectively dissolved in the cold water, and the dissolved oxygen concentration in the water is increased.

以上のように本発明にかかる酸素富化装置は、冷水と高濃度酸素を混合することによって、常に安定して水内の溶存酸素濃度を高めることができるので、水耕栽培・養魚・理容・美容・育毛などの用途に適用できる。   As described above, the oxygen enrichment apparatus according to the present invention can constantly increase the dissolved oxygen concentration in water by mixing cold water and high-concentration oxygen, so hydroponics, fish farming, barber, Applicable for beauty and hair growth.
