Description

本発明は、原水が流入する流入口及び浄水が流出する流出口を有する外ケースと、前記外ケースの内部にろ材が充填されたろ材充填部とが設けられた浄水器に関する。   The present invention relates to a water purifier provided with an outer case having an inflow port through which raw water flows in and an outflow port through which purified water flows out, and a filter medium filling unit filled with a filter medium in the outer case.

かかる浄水器の従来例として、軸方向の一端側から他端側までの長さが、径方向の外周側側面と内周側側面との間の長さよりも長くなるように形成された筒状のろ材充填部が備えられ、外ケースの流入口から流入した原水がろ材充填部の軸方向に通水されてろ過され、ろ過後の浄水が外ケースの流出口から流出されるように構成されたものがある(例えば、特許文献1参照)。   As a conventional example of such a water purifier, a cylindrical shape formed such that the length from one end side to the other end side in the axial direction is longer than the length between the outer peripheral side surface and the inner peripheral side surface in the radial direction. The filter medium filling part is provided, and the raw water flowing in from the inlet of the outer case is passed through in the axial direction of the filter medium filling part and filtered, and the purified water after filtration flows out from the outlet of the outer case. (See, for example, Patent Document 1).

特開2003−340445号公報JP 2003-340445 A

上記特許文献1の浄水器のように、ろ材が充填されたろ材充填部を備えた浄水器において発生する圧力損失は、ろ材充填部における原水の通流量を原水の通水方向に直交するろ材断面積で除した線速度、及び、原水がろ材を通過するろ過長に比例して増加する。   Like the water purifier of the said patent document 1, the pressure loss which generate | occur | produces in the water purifier provided with the filter medium filling part with which the filter medium was filled is a filter medium cutting | disconnection orthogonal to the water flow direction of raw water in the filter medium filling part. It increases in proportion to the linear velocity divided by the area and the filtration length of the raw water passing through the filter medium.

そして、上記特許文献1の浄水器のように原水をろ材充填部の軸方向に通水してろ過する場合には、原水をろ材充填部の径方向に通水してろ過する場合に比べて、ろ過長が長くなることに加え、原水が通水する通水方向に直交するろ材断面積が小さくなるので、原水の通流量を通水方向に直交するろ材断面積で除した線速度が増加する。よって、上記特許文献1の浄水器では、原水をろ材充填部に通水する際に発生する圧力損失が比較的大きくなるという問題があった。   And, when the raw water is filtered through the axial direction of the filter medium filling part as in the water purifier of Patent Document 1, the raw water is filtered in the radial direction of the filter medium filling part compared to the case where the raw water is filtered. In addition to increasing the filtration length, the filter medium cross-sectional area perpendicular to the water flow direction through which raw water flows is reduced, so the linear velocity divided by the flow rate of raw water divided by the filter medium cross-sectional area orthogonal to the water flow direction increases. To do. Therefore, in the water purifier of the said patent document 1, there existed a problem that the pressure loss generate | occur | produced when passing raw | natural water through a filter material filling part becomes comparatively large.

本発明は、かかる点に着目してなされたものであり、その目的は、ろ材充填部への通水により発生する圧力損失を低減することができる浄水器を提供する点にある。   This invention is made paying attention to this point, and the objective is to provide the water purifier which can reduce the pressure loss which generate | occur | produces by the water flow to a filter-medium filling part.

この目的を達成するための本発明に係る浄水器は、

前記ろ材充填部が中空円筒状に形成され、

前記原水が前記流入口から前記集合流路及び前記外周流路の何れか一方に導かれ、前記外周流路と前記集合流路との間で前記ろ材充填部を径方向に通水してろ過され、ろ過された前記浄水が前記集合流路及び前記外周流路の他方により前記流出口に導かれるように構成され、
前記ろ材充填部の前記軸方向の一端側から他端側までの長さが、前記ろ材充填部の径方向の前記外周側側面と前記内周側側面との間の長さよりも長く形成され、かつ、前記ろ材充填部に通水する前記原水の流量を一定の流量とする場合において、前記原水が前記ろ材充填部の前記外周側側面と前記内周側側面との間を径方向に通水する場合の線速度が、前記原水が前記ろ材充填部の前記軸方向の前記一端側の端面と前記軸方向の前記他端側の端面との間を前記軸方向に通水すると仮定した場合の線速度よりも小さくなるように、前記外周側側面、前記内周側側面、前記一端側の端面及び前記他端側の端面の面積が設定されている点にある。
The water purifier according to the present invention for achieving this object is as follows:
A water purifier provided with an outer case having an inlet into which raw water flows in and an outlet through which purified water flows out, and a filter medium filling portion filled with a filter medium inside the outer case,
The filter medium filling part is formed in a hollow cylindrical shape,
An outer filter disposed along the circumferential direction of the outer peripheral side surface of the filter medium filling portion and an inner filter disposed along the circumferential direction of the inner circumferential side surface of the filter medium filling portion;
A state of extending in the axial direction between the collecting flow path provided in a state of extending in the axial direction of the filter medium filling portion on the inner peripheral side of the inner filter, and the outer peripheral side of the outer filter and the inner peripheral side of the outer case And an outer peripheral flow path provided in
The raw water is guided from the inflow port to one of the collective flow path and the outer peripheral flow path, and filtered by passing the filter material filling portion in the radial direction between the outer peripheral flow path and the collective flow path. And the filtered purified water is configured to be guided to the outlet by the other of the collecting channel and the outer peripheral channel,
The length from the one end side in the axial direction to the other end side of the filter medium filling portion is formed longer than the length between the outer peripheral side surface and the inner peripheral side surface in the radial direction of the filter medium filling portion, In addition, when the flow rate of the raw water flowing through the filter medium filling portion is set to a constant flow rate, the raw water is passed in a radial direction between the outer peripheral side surface and the inner peripheral side surface of the filter medium filling portion. When the linear velocity in the case of assuming that the raw water passes in the axial direction between the end surface on the one end side in the axial direction and the end surface on the other end side in the axial direction of the filter medium filling portion The area of the outer peripheral side surface, the inner peripheral side surface, the end surface on the one end side, and the end surface on the other end side is set so as to be smaller than the linear velocity.

上記特徴構成によれば、ろ材充填部の軸方向の一端側から他端側までの長さが、ろ材充填部の径方向の外周側側面と内周側側面との間の長さよりも長く形成された状態において、原水をろ材充填部の径方向に通水してろ過するから、ろ過長が原水がろ材充填部を軸方向に通水する場合のろ過長に比べて短くなる。   According to the above characteristic configuration, the length from the one end side in the axial direction of the filter medium filling portion to the other end side is longer than the length between the outer peripheral side surface and the inner peripheral side surface in the radial direction of the filter medium filling portion. In this state, since the raw water is filtered in the radial direction of the filter medium filling portion, the filtration length is shorter than the filtration length when the raw water passes through the filter medium filling portion in the axial direction.

さらに、上記特徴構成によれば、ろ材充填部に通水する原水の流量を一定の流量とする場合において、原水がろ材充填部の外周側側面と内周側側面との間を径方向に通水する場合の線速度が、原水がろ材充填部の軸方向の一端側の端面と軸方向の他端側の端面との間を軸方向に通水すると仮定した場合の線速度よりも小さくなるように、ろ材充填部の外周側側面、内周側側面、一端側の端面及び他端側の端面の面積が設定されている。つまり、原水がろ材充填部を径方向に通流するときの線速度が、原水がろ材充填部を軸方向に通水すると仮定した場合の線速度よりも小さくなるように、原水がろ材充填部を径方向に通水する場合の通水方向に直交するろ材断面積と、原水がろ材充填部を軸方向に通水する場合の通水方向に直交するろ材断面積とが設定されていることとなる。   Further, according to the above characteristic configuration, when the flow rate of the raw water passing through the filter medium filling unit is a constant flow rate, the raw water passes radially between the outer peripheral side surface and the inner peripheral side surface of the filter medium filler unit. The linear velocity in the case of water is smaller than the linear velocity in the case where it is assumed that raw water passes in the axial direction between the end surface on one end side in the axial direction and the end surface on the other end side in the axial direction. Thus, the area of the outer peripheral side surface, the inner peripheral side surface, the end surface on one end side, and the end surface on the other end side of the filter medium filling portion is set. That is, the raw water is filtered so that the linear velocity when the raw water flows in the radial direction through the filter medium filling portion is smaller than the linear velocity when the raw water is assumed to flow through the filter medium filling portion in the axial direction. The cross-sectional area of the filter medium perpendicular to the water flow direction when water is passed in the radial direction and the cross-sectional area of the filter medium perpendicular to the water flow direction when raw water passes through the filter medium filling part in the axial direction are set. It becomes.

よって、原水がろ材充填部を径方向に通水するろ過長が、ろ材充填部を軸方向に通水する場合のろ過長よりも短くなることに加え、原水がろ材充填部を径方向に通水するときの線速度が、ろ材充填部を軸方向に通水する場合の線速度よりも小さくなるので、原水がろ材充填部を径方向に通水することにより発生する圧力損失を、原水がろ材充填部の軸方向に通水する場合に発生する圧力損失よりも低減することができる。   Therefore, the filtration length of the raw water passing through the filter medium filling part in the radial direction is shorter than the filtration length when the filter medium filling part is passed through in the axial direction, and the raw water passes through the filter medium filling part in the radial direction. Since the linear velocity when water is smaller than the linear velocity when the filter medium filling part is passed in the axial direction, the raw water has a pressure loss caused by passing the filter medium filling part in the radial direction. It can reduce more than the pressure loss which generate | occur | produces when passing water to the axial direction of a filter-medium filling part.

なお、原水がろ材充填部を径方向に通水すると、原水がろ材充填部を軸方向に通水する場合に比べてろ過長が短くなるが、ろ材充填部に通水する原水の流量を一定の流量とする場合において、同体積のろ材がろ材充填部に充填されている場合には、原水を浄化する浄化性能は同等となる。よって、原水がろ材充填部を軸方向に通水する場合に比べて、ろ過性能を低下させることなく、ろ材充填部に通水することにより発生する圧力損失を低減することができる。   When raw water passes through the filter medium filling part in the radial direction, the filtration length becomes shorter than when raw water passes through the filter medium filling part in the axial direction, but the flow rate of raw water flowing through the filter medium filling part is constant. In the case where the flow rate is the same, when the filter medium having the same volume is filled in the filter medium filling portion, the purification performance for purifying the raw water is equivalent. Therefore, compared with the case where raw | natural water passes a filter material filling part to an axial direction, the pressure loss generate | occur | produced by passing water to a filter material filling part can be reduced, without reducing filtration performance.

Moreover, since raw | natural water or purified water is prevented from flowing in the other end side of an outer periphery flow path, it can prevent that raw | natural water or purified water leaks from an outer periphery flow path in the other end side of an outer periphery flow path.

さらに、外フィルタ支持体の周方向の全周に沿って、外フィルタ支持体と外ケースとの間に外側シール部材が設けられているので、外側シール部材により外フィルタ支持体を外ケースに対して位置決めすることができ、容易に外フィルタ支持体と外ケースとの間に外周流路を形成することができる。   Furthermore, since the outer seal member is provided between the outer filter support and the outer case along the entire circumference of the outer filter support, the outer filter support is attached to the outer case by the outer seal member. The peripheral flow path can be easily formed between the outer filter support and the outer case.

Further features of the water purifier according to the present invention are as follows:
On the inner peripheral side of the inner filter, an inner tube forming a tube flow path provided with a hollow fiber membrane is provided in a state extending in the axial direction,
The collecting channel is formed between the inner filter and the inner tube;
One end side of the in-pipe flow path communicates with the inflow port or the outflow port provided on one end side in the axial direction of the outer case, and the other end side of the in-pipe flow path is the other end in the axial direction of the outer case. Configured to communicate with the collecting channel on the side,
An inner filter support that supports the inner filter is provided along the entire circumference of the inner circumferential surface of the inner filter on one end side in the axial direction of the inner filter;
An inner seal member that seals the collecting channel along the entire circumference in the circumferential direction of the inner tube at one end in the axial direction is provided between the inner filter support and the inner tube. is there.

上記特徴構成によれば、外ケースの一端側から他端側に延びる管内流路に中空糸膜を収容する状態として、中空糸膜によりろ材充填部から集合流路に流出する浄水又は集合流路からろ材充填部に流入する原水の流れを妨げないようにして、外ケースの内部において円滑に原水又は浄水を流動させる状態で、原水又は浄水中に含まれる菌や微細な粒子等を適切に除去することができる。   According to the above characteristic configuration, the purified water or the collective flow channel that flows out from the filter medium filling portion to the collective flow channel by the hollow fiber membrane as a state in which the hollow fiber membrane is accommodated in the pipe flow channel that extends from one end side to the other end side of the outer case. Appropriately remove bacteria and fine particles contained in the raw water or purified water in a state where the raw water or purified water flows smoothly inside the outer case without obstructing the flow of the raw water flowing into the filter medium filling part can do.

そして、このように中空糸膜が設けられた内側管を備える場合において、集合流路の一端側に内側シール部材が設けられているので、ろ材充填部の軸方向の他端側から一端側にわたる広い範囲において集合流路を形成することができる。また、集合流路の一端側において原水又は浄水が通流することが防止されるので、集合流路の一端側において原水又は浄水が集合流路から漏洩することを防止することができる。   And in the case of providing the inner tube provided with the hollow fiber membrane in this way, since the inner seal member is provided on one end side of the collecting flow path, it extends from the other end side in the axial direction of the filter medium filling portion to one end side. The collecting channel can be formed in a wide range. Further, since raw water or purified water is prevented from flowing through one end side of the collective flow path, it is possible to prevent raw water or purified water from leaking from the collective flow path at one end side of the collective flow path.

さらに、内側管の周方向の全周に沿って、内フィルタ支持体と内側管との間に内側シール部材が設けられているので、内側シール部材により内側管を内フィルタ支持体に対して位置決めすることができ、容易に内フィルタ支持体と内側管との間に集合流路を形成することができる。   Furthermore, since the inner seal member is provided between the inner filter support and the inner tube along the entire circumference of the inner tube, the inner tube is positioned with respect to the inner filter support by the inner seal member. It is possible to easily form a collecting flow path between the inner filter support and the inner tube.

Further features of the water purifier according to the present invention are as follows:
The raw water passes through the filter medium filling portion in a radially inward direction from the outer peripheral flow path to the collecting flow path.

The linear velocity at the time of running is smaller than the linear velocity when passing the filter medium filling part in the axial direction, so that the pressure loss caused by the flow of raw water to the filter medium filling part is reduced by the raw water. It can be reduced as compared with the case of passing water in the direction. In addition, the raw water can be filtered in a state in which the raw water passes through the filter material filling portion in the radially outward direction from the collecting channel toward the outer filter.

An outer case having a water storage tank for storing purified water and an outlet through which the stored purified water flows out, a raw water tank for storing raw water stored in the outer case, and a filter medium filled with a filter medium inside the outer case Is a water purifier provided with
The filter medium filling part is formed in a hollow cylindrical shape,
An outer filter disposed on an outer peripheral side surface of the filter medium filling portion and an inner filter disposed on an inner peripheral side surface of the filter medium filling portion;
A cylindrical intermediate member that is housed in the outer case and has an inflow portion from which the raw water flows from the raw water tank and an outflow portion from which the purified water flows out to the water storage tank is provided,
A state of extending in the axial direction between a collecting flow path provided in a state extending in the axial direction of the filter medium filling portion on an inner peripheral side of the inner filter, and an outer peripheral side of the outer filter and an inner peripheral side of the intermediate member And an intermediate flow path provided in
The raw water is guided from the raw water tank to the intermediate flow path, filtered through the filter medium filling portion in a radial direction from the intermediate flow path toward the collective flow path, and the filtered purified water is the collective flow. Configured to flow through a path and be led to the outflow part,
The length from the one end side in the axial direction to the other end side of the filter medium filling portion is formed longer than the length between the outer peripheral side surface and the inner peripheral side surface in the radial direction of the filter medium filling portion, In addition, when the flow rate of the raw water flowing through the filter medium filling portion is set to a constant flow rate, the raw water is passed in a radial direction between the outer peripheral side surface and the inner peripheral side surface of the filter medium filling portion. When the linear velocity in the case of assuming that the raw water passes in the axial direction between the end surface on the one end side in the axial direction and the end surface on the other end side in the axial direction of the filter medium filling portion The area of the outer peripheral side surface, the inner peripheral side surface, the end surface on the one end side, and the end surface on the other end side is set so as to be smaller than the linear velocity.

上記特徴構成によれば、原水がろ材充填部を通水するろ過長が、ろ材充填部を軸方向に通水する場合のろ過長よりも短くなることに加え、原水がろ材充填部を通流するときの線速度が、ろ材充填部を軸方向に通水する場合の線速度よりも小さくなるので、原水がろ材充填部への通水により発生する圧力損失を、原水がろ材充填部を軸方向に通水する場合よりも低減することができる。
また、通水方向がろ材充填部の軸心(径内方向)に向いていることでろ材充填部の構造の安定性が向上し、ろ材充填部が変形して漏水などが発生する可能性を低減することができる。
According to the above characteristic configuration, the raw water passes through the filter medium filling section in addition to the filtration length through which the raw water passes through the filter medium filling section becomes shorter than the filtration length when the filter medium filling section passes in the axial direction. The linear velocity at the time of running is smaller than the linear velocity when passing the filter medium filling part in the axial direction, so that the pressure loss caused by the flow of raw water to the filter medium filling part is reduced by the raw water. It can be reduced as compared with the case of passing water in the direction.
In addition, the water flow direction is directed to the axial center (inner diameter direction) of the filter medium filling part, so that the stability of the structure of the filter medium filling part is improved, and there is a possibility that the filter medium filling part is deformed and water leakage occurs. Can be reduced.

上記特徴構成によれば、ろ材が活性炭粒子とされるので、原水に含まれる塩素等を除去することができる。また、活性炭粒子の粒子サイズが48〜300メッシュとされるので、ろ材充填部に充填された活性炭粒子同士の間に適切に原水が流れる隙間が形成され、通水時の圧力損失の増加を抑制することができる。   According to the above characteristic configuration, since the filter medium is activated carbon particles, chlorine and the like contained in the raw water can be removed. Moreover, since the particle size of the activated carbon particles is 48 to 300 mesh, a gap through which the raw water flows appropriately is formed between the activated carbon particles filled in the filter material filling portion, and an increase in pressure loss during water flow is suppressed. can do.

The main body casing upper part 41d is formed in a cylindrical shape, the upper end side thereof is closed, and a female screw is formed on the inner peripheral surface on the lower end side. The main body casing lower portion 41c is also formed in a cylindrical shape, and a male screw that engages with a female screw on the outer peripheral surface of the main body casing upper portion 41d is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the upper end portion. A disc-shaped mounting portion 41e extending in the radial direction is formed on the lower inner peripheral side. When the female screw of the main body casing upper portion 41d and the male screw of the main body casing lower portion 41c are screwed together and the main body casing upper portion 41d is attached to the main body casing lower portion 41c, the purified water cartridge accommodating space for accommodating the purified water cartridge 6 inside the main body casing member 41 Is formed.

On the other hand, the water purification cartridge 6 accommodated in the main body casing member 41 can be removed by removing the main body casing upper portion 41d from the main body casing lower portion 41c.

なお、蛇口1に接続される切替バルブ2は、切替レバー2aの揺動操作により、蛇口1から受け入れた原水Wを給水ホース3を通じて浄水装置本体4に供給して浄水Vを浄水吐出口9から浄水Vを吐出させる浄水吐出状態と、蛇口1から受け入れた原水Wを図示しない原水吐出口から吐出させる原水吐出状態と、蛇口1から受け入れた原水Wを図示しないシャワー口から吐出させるシャワー状態とに切替自在に構成されている。   The switching valve 2 connected to the faucet 1 supplies the raw water W received from the faucet 1 to the water purifier main body 4 through the water supply hose 3 and swings the purified water V from the purified water discharge port 9 by the swinging operation of the switching lever 2a.

It is configured to be switchable.

次に、浄水カートリッジ6について具体的に説明する。
図1に示すように、浄水カートリッジ6には、原水Wが流入する流入口60及び浄水Vが流出する流出口67とを有する円筒状の外ケース61と、外ケース61の内部にろ材が充填された中空円筒状のろ材充填部65とが設けられている。また、本体ケーシング部材41のホース接続部41aを通じて給水ホース3から流入口60に原水Wが流入するように構成され、本体ケーシング部材41の吐出管接続部41bを通じて流出口67から浄水吐出管8に浄水Vが流出するように構成されている。
Next, the water purification cartridge 6 will be specifically described.
As shown in FIG. 1, the water purification cartridge 6 has a cylindrical outer case 61 having an inlet 60 through which raw water W flows in and an outlet 67 through which purified water V flows out, and a filter medium is filled inside the outer case 61. A hollow cylindrical filter medium filling portion 65 is provided. Further, the raw water W is configured to flow from the water supply hose 3 to the inlet 60 through the hose connection portion 41 a of the main body casing member 41, and from the outlet 67 to the purified water discharge pipe 8 through the discharge pipe connection portion 41 b of the main body casing member 41. It is comprised so that the purified water V may flow out.

そして、流入口60が、外ケース61の外周面61bの軸方向Xの一端側に設けられ、流出口67が、外ケース61の軸方向Xの一端側を形成する下面61cに設けられている。なお、軸方向Xは図1における上下方向であり、軸方向Xの一方側を図1における下方側とし、軸方向Xの他方側を図1における上方側とする。よって、以下の説明においては、例えば、外ケース61の軸方向Xの一端側を外ケース61の下端側とし、外ケース61の軸方向Xの他端側を外ケース61の上端側として説明することがある。   The inflow port 60 is provided on one end side in the axial direction X of the outer peripheral surface 61 b of the outer case 61, and the outflow port 67 is provided on the lower surface 61 c that forms one end side in the axial direction X of the outer case 61. . The axial direction X is the vertical direction in FIG. 1, and one side of the axial direction X is the lower side in FIG. 1, and the other side of the axial direction X is the upper side in FIG. Therefore, in the following description, for example, one end side in the axial direction X of the outer case 61 will be described as the lower end side of the outer case 61, and the other end side in the axial direction X of the outer case 61 will be described as the upper end side of the outer case 61. Sometimes.

ろ材充填部65は中空円筒状に形成され、ろ材充填部65の軸方向Xの一端側から他端側までの長さが、ろ材充填部65の径方向の外周側側面と内周側側面との間の長さよりも長く形成されている。このろ材充填部65に充填されるろ材は、粒子サイズが48〜300メッシュの活性炭粒子であり、この活性炭粒子が、原水Wに含まれる塩素成分等を吸着して、原水Wのカルキ臭が除去される。   The filter medium filling part 65 is formed in a hollow cylindrical shape, and the length from the one end side to the other end side in the axial direction X of the filter medium filling part 65 is the outer peripheral side surface and the inner peripheral side surface of the filter medium filling part 65 in the radial direction. It is formed longer than the length between. The filter medium filled in the filter medium filling unit 65 is activated carbon particles having a particle size of 48 to 300 mesh. The activated carbon particles adsorb chlorine components and the like contained in the raw water W, thereby removing the odor of the raw water W. Is done.

ろ材充填部65は、ろ材充填部65に通水する原水Wの流量を一定の流量とする場合において、原水Wがろ材充填部65の外周側側面と内周側側面との間を径方向に通水する場合の線速度が、原水Wがろ材充填部65の軸方向Xの一端側の端面と他端側の端面との間を軸方向Xに通水すると仮定した場合の線速度よりも小さくなるように、外周側側面、内周側側面、軸方向Xの一端側の端面及び他端側の端面の面積が設定されている。
つまり、原水Wがろ材充填部65を径方向に通流するときの線速度が、原水Wがろ材充填部65を軸方向Xに通水すると仮定した場合の線速度よりも小さくなるように、原水Wがろ材充填部65を径方向に通水する場合の通水方向に直交するろ材断面積と、原水Wがろ材充填部65を軸方向Xに通水する場合の通水方向に直交するろ材断面積とが設定されることとなる。
When the flow rate of the raw water W flowing through the filter medium filling unit 65 is a constant flow rate, the filter medium filling unit 65 is configured such that the raw water W is radially between the outer peripheral side surface and the inner peripheral side surface of the filter medium filling unit 65. The linear velocity when water is passed is higher than the linear velocity when the raw water W is assumed to pass between the end surface on one end side in the axial direction X and the end surface on the other end side in the axial direction X of the filter medium filling portion 65. The areas of the outer peripheral side surface, the inner peripheral side surface, the end surface on one end side in the axial direction X, and the end surface on the other end side are set so as to decrease.
That is, the linear velocity when the raw water W flows through the filter medium filling portion 65 in the radial direction is smaller than the linear velocity when the raw water W is assumed to flow through the filter material filling portion 65 in the axial direction X. The cross-sectional area of the filter medium perpendicular to the water flow direction when the raw water W passes the filter medium filling part 65 in the radial direction and the water flow direction orthogonal to the raw water W when the filter medium filling part 65 passes the filter medium filling part 65 in the axial direction X. The filter medium cross-sectional area is set.

また、ろ材充填部65の外周側側面の周方向に沿って全周に外フィルタ64が配設され、ろ材充填部65の内周側側面の周方向に沿って全周に内フィルタ63が配設されている。外フィルタ64と内フィルタ63は、通水可能であり、かつ、ろ材充填部65への通水に伴ってろ材がろ材充填部65内から流出することを防止することができるネットや不織布等で形成されている。なお、図示はしないが、ろ材充填部65の上端側及び下端側においても、外フィルタ64及び内フィルタ63の上端側同士を接続する上端側フィルタ及び下端側同士を接続する下端側フィルタが設けられており、外フィルタ64、内フィルタ63、上端側フィルタ及び下端側フィルタによりろ材が充填されたろ材充填部65が形成されている。   In addition, an outer filter 64 is disposed on the entire circumference along the circumferential direction of the outer peripheral side surface of the filter medium filling unit 65, and the inner filter 63 is disposed on the entire circumference along the circumferential direction of the inner circumferential side surface of the filter medium filling unit 65. It is installed. The outer filter 64 and the inner filter 63 are made of a net, a nonwoven fabric, or the like that can pass water and can prevent the filter medium from flowing out of the filter medium filling part 65 due to water flow to the filter medium filling part 65. Is formed. Although not shown, an upper end side filter that connects the upper end sides of the outer filter 64 and the inner filter 63 and a lower end side filter that connects the lower end sides are also provided on the upper end side and the lower end side of the filter medium filling unit 65. A filter medium filling portion 65 filled with a filter medium is formed by the outer filter 64, the inner filter 63, the upper end filter, and the lower end filter.

また、内フィルタ63の内周側において、ろ材充填部65の軸方向Xに延びる状態で設けられる集合流路69が備えられている。具体的には、集合流路69は内フィルタ63と後述する内側管70との間に設けられている。また、外フィルタ64の外周側と外ケース61の内周側との間において、軸方向Xに延びる状態で設けられる外周流路68が備えられている。   Further, on the inner peripheral side of the inner filter 63, a collecting flow path 69 provided in a state extending in the axial direction X of the filter medium filling portion 65 is provided. Specifically, the collecting flow path 69 is provided between the inner filter 63 and an inner pipe 70 described later. Further, an outer peripheral flow path 68 provided in a state extending in the axial direction X is provided between the outer peripheral side of the outer filter 64 and the inner peripheral side of the outer case 61.

浄水カートリッジ6には、内フィルタ63の内周側に、ろ材充填部65の軸方向Xに延びる内側管70が備えられている。この内側管70の内側に形成された管内流路72において、中空糸膜71がU字状に折り曲げた状態で設けられている。よって、ろ材充填部65を通過して管内流路72に流入した浄水Vが中空糸膜71を通過するように構成されている。この中空糸膜71により、浄水V中に含まれている細菌類、濁度成分が分離される。   The water purification cartridge 6 is provided with an inner tube 70 extending in the axial direction X of the filter medium filling portion 65 on the inner peripheral side of the inner filter 63. In the in-pipe flow path 72 formed inside the inner pipe 70, the hollow fiber membrane 71 is provided in a state bent in a U shape. Therefore, the purified water V that has passed through the filter medium filling portion 65 and has flowed into the pipe flow path 72 is configured to pass through the hollow fiber membrane 71. The hollow fiber membrane 71 separates bacteria and turbidity components contained in the purified water V.

そして、中空糸膜71を通過した浄水Vが外ケース61の軸方向Xにおける下端側に設けられた流出口67から流出するように構成されている。一方、内側管70の上端側の他端側開口部70bと、外ケース61の上端側の上面61dとの間には隙間Pが形成され、集合流路69から管内流路72に、ろ材充填部65を通過した浄水Vが通流自在に構成されている。つまり、管内流路72が外ケース61の軸方向Xにおける上端側において集合流路69と連通するように構成されている。   And it is comprised so that the purified water V which passed the hollow fiber membrane 71 may flow out from the outflow port 67 provided in the lower end side in the axial direction X of the outer case 61. FIG. On the other hand, a gap P is formed between the other end side opening 70b on the upper end side of the inner pipe 70 and the upper surface 61d on the upper end side of the outer case 61, and the filter medium is filled from the collective flow path 69 to the pipe inner flow path 72. The purified water V that has passed through the portion 65 is configured to flow freely. That is, the in-pipe flow path 72 is configured to communicate with the collective flow path 69 on the upper end side in the axial direction X of the outer case 61.

一方、内側管70の下端側には、内側管70よりも大径の接続管部70aが内側管70と連通する状態で接続されている。この接続管部70aの内周側に、中空糸膜71を通過した浄水Vが流出するように構成されている。この接続管部70aは、外ケース61の下面61cの流出口67の周囲において外ケース61の内部に凸となるように形成された円筒状の環状凸部61aの内側に挿入されて接続されている。また、環状凸部61aの内周側と接続管部70aの外周側との間にはOリング73が設けられている。これにより、中空糸膜71を通過した浄水Vが、環状凸部61aと接続管部70aとの間を流れて外周流路68に戻ること、及び、外周流路68を流れる原水Wが環状凸部61aと接続管部70aとの間を流れて流出口67に漏洩することを防止することができる。   On the other hand, a connecting pipe portion 70 a having a larger diameter than the inner tube 70 is connected to the lower end side of the inner tube 70 so as to communicate with the inner tube 70. The purified water V that has passed through the hollow fiber membrane 71 flows out to the inner peripheral side of the connecting pipe portion 70a. The connecting pipe portion 70a is inserted and connected to the inside of a cylindrical annular convex portion 61a formed so as to protrude inside the outer case 61 around the outflow port 67 of the lower surface 61c of the outer case 61. Yes. Further, an O-ring 73 is provided between the inner peripheral side of the annular convex portion 61a and the outer peripheral side of the connecting pipe portion 70a. Thus, the purified water V that has passed through the hollow fiber membrane 71 flows between the annular convex portion 61a and the connecting pipe portion 70a and returns to the outer peripheral flow path 68, and the raw water W flowing through the outer peripheral flow path 68 is annular convex. It is possible to prevent leakage between the portion 61 a and the connecting pipe portion 70 a and leaking to the outlet 67.

また、外フィルタ64を支持する格子状の外フィルタ支持体62aが、外フィルタ64の軸方向Xの下端側から上端側において外フィルタ64の外周面の周方向の全周に沿って設けられている。この外フィルタ支持体62aには、通水用の外フィルタ支持体開口部66aが設けられている。   A lattice-like outer filter support 62 a that supports the outer filter 64 is provided along the entire circumference of the outer circumferential surface of the outer filter 64 from the lower end side to the upper end side in the axial direction X of the outer filter 64. Yes. The outer filter support 62a is provided with an outer filter support opening 66a for water flow.

具体的には、外フィルタ支持体62aの上端部が、外フィルタ支持体62aの内周側に向かって円環状に形成されたフィルタ支持体上端面62cを備えており、フィルタ支持体上端面62cの内周部が内フィルタ支持体62bの上端部と接続されている。また、外フィルタ支持体62a及び内フィルタ支持体62bの下端部が、夫々円環状のフィルタ支持体下部構成部材62dに接続されており、外フィルタ支持体62a、内フィルタ支持体62b及びフィルタ支持体下部構成部材62dによって、ろ材充填部65を収容するフィルタ支持ケース62が形成されている。   Specifically, the upper end portion of the outer filter support 62a includes a filter support upper end surface 62c formed in an annular shape toward the inner peripheral side of the outer filter support 62a, and the filter support upper end surface 62c. Is connected to the upper end of the inner filter support 62b. The lower ends of the outer filter support 62a and the inner filter support 62b are connected to the annular filter support lower component 62d, respectively. The outer filter support 62a, the inner filter support 62b, and the filter support A filter support case 62 that accommodates the filter medium filling portion 65 is formed by the lower component member 62d.

そして、外フィルタ支持体62aの軸方向Xの他端側において、外周流路68を外フィルタ支持体62aの周方向の全周に沿ってシールする外側シール部材80が、外フィルタ支持体62aの外周面と外ケース61の内周面との間に設けられている。この外側シール部材80が外周流路68の上端部として機能する。一方、外ケース61の下面61cによって外周流路68の下端部が形成されている。よって、外フィルタ支持体62aの外周側の周方向の全周において、外フィルタ支持体62aの軸方向Xの他端側から一端側にわたって外周流路68が形成されている。   Then, on the other end side in the axial direction X of the outer filter support 62a, an outer seal member 80 that seals the outer peripheral flow path 68 along the entire circumference of the outer filter support 62a is provided on the outer filter support 62a. It is provided between the outer peripheral surface and the inner peripheral surface of the outer case 61. This outer seal member 80 functions as the upper end portion of the outer peripheral flow path 68. On the other hand, a lower end portion of the outer peripheral flow path 68 is formed by the lower surface 61 c of the outer case 61. Therefore, the outer peripheral flow path 68 is formed from the other end side in the axial direction X of the outer filter support body 62a to one end side in the entire circumference in the circumferential direction on the outer peripheral side of the outer filter support body 62a.

具体的には、外側シール部材80はOリングにより構成され、外フィルタ支持体62aの上端側の周方向の全周に沿って形成された外側シール取付部62eに取付けられている。これにより、外フィルタ支持体62aを外ケース61の内部に取り付けることで、外側シール部材80が外ケース61の上端側の内周面に当接して外周流路68の上端部がシールされる。   Specifically, the outer seal member 80 is composed of an O-ring, and is attached to an outer seal attachment portion 62e formed along the entire circumference in the circumferential direction on the upper end side of the outer filter support 62a. Thus, by attaching the outer filter support 62 a to the inside of the outer case 61, the outer seal member 80 contacts the inner peripheral surface on the upper end side of the outer case 61 and the upper end portion of the outer peripheral flow path 68 is sealed.

なお、この場合、外フィルタ支持体62aの上端側の周方向の全周に沿って外側シール取付部62eが形成されているので、外フィルタ支持体62aの上端側には、通水用の外フィルタ支持体開口部66aを設けることができない。よって、外フィルタ支持体62aの上端側においては、外周流路68からろ材形成部に原水Wを流入しない状態となる。この場合、ろ材充填部65の一端側から他端側にわたる外周側側面の面積から、外側シール取付部62eが形成され外周流路68からろ材形成部の外周側側面から原水Wを流入するとができない面積を除した面積を、ろ材充填部65の外周側側面の面積として、上述の線速度との関係においてその面積を設定してもよい。
つまり、上述の如く、ろ材充填部65に通水する原水Wの流量を一定の流量とする場合において、原水Wがろ材充填部65の外周側側面と内周側側面との間を径方向に通水する場合の線速度が、原水Wがろ材充填部65の軸方向Xの一端側の端面と他端側の端面との間を軸方向Xに通水すると仮定した場合の線速度よりも小さくなるように、外周側側面、内周側側面、軸方向Xの一端側の端面及び他端側の端面の面積を設定してもよい。
In this case, the outer seal mounting portion 62e is formed along the entire circumference in the circumferential direction on the upper end side of the outer filter support 62a. The filter support opening 66a cannot be provided. Therefore, on the upper end side of the outer filter support 62a, the raw water W does not flow into the filter medium forming part from the outer peripheral flow path 68. In this case, from the area of the outer peripheral side surface extending from one end side to the other end side of the filter medium filling portion 65, the outer seal attachment portion 62e is formed and the raw water W cannot flow from the outer peripheral flow path 68 from the outer peripheral side surface of the filter medium forming portion. The area excluding the area may be set as the area of the outer peripheral side surface of the filter medium filling unit 65 in relation to the linear velocity described above.
That is, as described above, when the flow rate of the raw water W flowing through the filter medium filling unit 65 is a constant flow rate, the raw water W is radially formed between the outer peripheral side surface and the inner peripheral side surface of the filter medium filling unit 65. The linear velocity when water is passed is higher than the linear velocity when the raw water W is assumed to pass between the end surface on one end side in the axial direction X and the end surface on the other end side in the axial direction X of the filter medium filling portion 65. The areas of the outer peripheral side surface, the inner peripheral side surface, the end surface on one end side in the axial direction X, and the end surface on the other end side may be set so as to be smaller.

そして、この外側シール部材80が設けられているので、集合流路69を流れる浄水Vが、軸方向Xの他端側において外ケース61と外フィルタ支持体62aとの間を流れて外周流路68に戻ること、及び、外周流路68を流れる原水Wが、軸方向Xの他端側において外ケース61と外フィルタ支持体62aとの間を流れて集合流路69に漏洩することを防止することができる。   And since this outer side sealing member 80 is provided, the purified water V which flows through the collective flow path 69 flows between the outer case 61 and the outer filter support body 62a in the other end side of the axial direction X, and an outer periphery flow path. 68, and the raw water W flowing through the outer peripheral flow path 68 is prevented from flowing between the outer case 61 and the outer filter support 62a on the other end side in the axial direction X and leaking into the collective flow path 69. can do.

また、内フィルタ63を支持する格子状の内フィルタ支持体62bが、内フィルタ63の軸方向Xの下端側から上端側において内フィルタ63の内周面の周方向の全周に沿って設けられている。この内フィルタ支持体62bには、通水用の内フィルタ支持体開口部66bが設けられている。   A lattice-like inner filter support 62 b that supports the inner filter 63 is provided along the entire circumference in the circumferential direction of the inner circumferential surface of the inner filter 63 from the lower end side to the upper end side in the axial direction X of the inner filter 63. ing. The inner filter support 62b is provided with an inner filter support opening 66b for water flow.

そして、内フィルタ支持体62bの軸方向Xの一端側において、集合流路69を内フィルタ支持体62bの周方向の全周に沿ってシールする内側シール部材81が、内フィルタ支持体62bと内側管70との間に設けられている。この内側シール部材81が集合流路69の下端部として機能する。一方、外ケース61の上面61dによって集合流路69の上端部が形成されている。よって、内フィルタ支持体62bの内周側の周方向の全周において、内フィルタ支持体62bの軸方向Xの他端側から一端側にわたって集合流路69が形成されている。   Further, on one end side in the axial direction X of the inner filter support body 62b, an inner seal member 81 that seals the collecting flow path 69 along the entire circumference in the circumferential direction of the inner filter support body 62b is provided between the inner filter support body 62b and the inner filter support body 62b. It is provided between the pipe 70. The inner seal member 81 functions as the lower end portion of the collecting channel 69. On the other hand, the upper end portion of the collective flow channel 69 is formed by the upper surface 61 d of the outer case 61. Therefore, the collective flow path 69 is formed from the other end side in the axial direction X of the inner filter support body 62b to the one end side on the entire circumference in the circumferential direction on the inner circumference side of the inner filter support body 62b.

具体的には、内側シール部材81はOリングにより構成され、内側管70の外周面の下端側において、内側管70の接続管部70aよりも上側に周方向の全周に沿って形成された内側シール取付部70cに取付けられている。これにより、内側管70の外周側に内フィルタ支持体62bを取付けることで、内側シール部材81としてのOリングが内フィルタ支持体62bの内周面に当接して集合流路69の下端部がシールされる。   Specifically, the inner seal member 81 is composed of an O-ring, and is formed along the entire circumference in the circumferential direction above the connection pipe portion 70a of the inner pipe 70 on the lower end side of the outer peripheral surface of the inner pipe 70. It is attached to the inner seal attaching part 70c. Thus, by attaching the inner filter support 62b to the outer peripheral side of the inner tube 70, the O-ring as the inner seal member 81 abuts on the inner peripheral surface of the inner filter support 62b, and the lower end portion of the collecting channel 69 is Sealed.

そして、この内側シール部材81が設けられているので、集合流路69を流れる浄水Vが、軸方向Xの一端側において内側管70と内フィルタ支持体62bとの間を流れて外周流路68に戻ること、及び、外周流路68を流れる原水Wが、軸方向Xの一端側において内側管70と内フィルタ支持体62bとの間を流れて集合流路69に漏洩することを防止することができる。   Since the inner seal member 81 is provided, the purified water V flowing through the collecting channel 69 flows between the inner tube 70 and the inner filter support 62b on one end side in the axial direction X, and the outer peripheral channel 68. And the raw water W flowing through the outer peripheral flow path 68 is prevented from flowing between the inner pipe 70 and the inner filter support 62b on one end side in the axial direction X and leaking into the collective flow path 69. Can do.

上述の如く浄水カートリッジ6が構成され、原水Wが、外ケース61の外周面61bの軸方向Xの一端側に設けられた流入口60から外ケース61内に流入し、外フィルタ支持体62aの外周側の周方向の全周において、外フィルタ支持体62aの軸方向Xの一端側から他端側にわたって形成された外周流路68を一端側から他端側まで流れ、ろ材充填部65の一端側から他端側にわたって外フィルタ64側から内フィルタ63に向けて径内方向に通流して、内フィルタ支持体62bの内周側の周方向の全周において、内フィルタ支持体62bの軸方向Xの他端側から一端側にわたって形成されている集合流路69に流出する。   The water purification cartridge 6 is configured as described above, and the raw water W flows into the outer case 61 from the inlet 60 provided on one end side in the axial direction X of the outer peripheral surface 61b of the outer case 61, and the outer filter support 62a In the entire circumference in the circumferential direction on the outer circumference side, the outer flow path 68 formed from one end side to the other end side in the axial direction X of the outer filter support 62a flows from one end side to the other end side, and one end of the filter medium filling unit 65 The inner filter support 62b flows in the radially inner direction from the outer filter 64 side to the inner filter 63 from the outer side to the other end side, and the axial direction of the inner filter support 62b in the entire circumference of the inner peripheral side of the inner filter support 62b It flows out to the collecting flow path 69 formed from the other end side of X to the one end side.

そして、集合流路69において内フィルタ支持体62bの下端側から上端側に向かってろ材充填部65を通過した浄水Vが流れ、内側管70の上端側に設けられた他端側開口部70bと、外ケース61の上端側の上面61dとの間に形成された隙間Pから、浄水Vが集合流路69から内側管70内に形成された管内流路72に流入し、管内流路72に流入した浄水Vが中空糸膜71を通過し、中空糸膜71を通過した浄水Vが流出口67から外ケース61の外部へ流出するように構成されている。   And the purified water V which passed the filter material filling part 65 flows toward the upper end side from the lower end side of the inner filter support body 62b in the collective flow path 69, and the other end side opening part 70b provided in the upper end side of the inner side pipe 70, and From the gap P formed between the upper surface 61 d on the upper end side of the outer case 61, the purified water V flows from the collecting channel 69 into the in-tube channel 72 formed in the inner tube 70, and enters the in-tube channel 72. The purified water V that has flowed in passes through the hollow fiber membrane 71, and the purified water V that has passed through the hollow fiber membrane 71 flows out of the outer case 61 from the outlet 67.

また、浄水カートリッジ6は、図2に示すように、流出口67に原水Wを供給して、流入口60から浄水Vが流出するように、浄水カートリッジ6に対する給水ホース3と浄水吐出管8の接続を変更し、原水Wが集合流路69から外周流路68に向かう径外方向にろ材充填部65を通過して浄化する構成にしてもよい。このような構成にすることで、上記の圧力損失を低減することができる。   Further, as shown in FIG. 2, the water purification cartridge 6 supplies the raw water W to the outlet 67, and the water supply hose 3 and the water purification discharge pipe 8 are connected to the water purification cartridge 6 so that the purified water V flows out from the inlet 60. The connection may be changed, and the raw water W may be purified by passing through the filter medium filling portion 65 in the radially outward direction from the collecting channel 69 toward the outer peripheral channel 68. With such a configuration, the pressure loss can be reduced.
