Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

[Industrial application] Activated stone is used for purification of bath water in general households and baths (and for the preparation of drinking water). It purifies water and elutes minerals that are effective for the human body. Due to the health management and the need to replace bath water, the use of water resources has been increasing due to savings, labor saving and convenience.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventional methods for cleaning activated stones used for water purification include a method of removing dirt by hand from a container and cleaning dirt, a method of injecting strong water flow into a container and injecting pressurized water mixed with air, In addition, the activated stone was stirred and washed by rotating the basket in the horizontal container.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

(A) The removal of the activated stone from the container is a time-consuming and dirty operation, and the cleaning of the activated stone chamber is also troublesome. (B) Washing with a pressurized water flow or the like did not move sufficiently because the activated stone was compressed by its own weight, and could not be completely washed. For this reason, it is necessary to use a spherical object which is easy to move, and the amount of the activated stone is limited. (C) If the activated stone chamber is made horizontal and an inner basket or the like is placed, water does not flow uniformly in the activated stone.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

(B) The active stone chamber (1) of a cylindrical or polygonal cylinder is installed horizontally. (B) Partition plates with water holes (2) are provided alternately in the upper and lower sides of the activated stone chamber. (C) The partition plate (3) is provided with an air vent hole (5) and an air vent pipe (6) is provided. (D) A stirring plate (18) is provided in each partitioned chamber. (E) A universal joint (7) is provided at the entrance and exit of the activated stone chamber.

[0005]

The drain valve is opened while passing water through the activated stone chamber, and the dirt is discharged together with water while rotating the activated stone chamber manually or automatically.

[0006]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below. The bathtub (16) is connected to the purification device of the present invention by a pipe, and the bathwater passes through the hair catcher (15) in the bathtub, is sent to the activated stone chamber (1) by the circulation pump (9), and the separated activated stones. The bath water, which has passed through (4) in order, is returned to the bath tub, and bubbles are taken in and ejected by the bubble generation nozzle (14).

The present invention exerts its effect when cleaning dirt on activated stones used in this circulation device.
At this time, the normal circulation is stopped by the control device, the valves (12) and (13) of the normal line are closed, the water supply valve (10) is opened to supply water, and the drive roller (8) is opened by the control device that opens the drain valve (11). ) To rotate the activated stone chamber (1) to stir the activated stone, and drain the wastewater together with the water. When washing is completed, the water supply valve and drain valve are closed and the valve of the normal line is opened to return to normal bath water circulation.

[0008]

【The invention's effect】

(A) By making the activated stone chamber horizontal, the compression due to its own weight is reduced, and the activated stone becomes easy to move, so that there is no need to restrict the material. (B) By alternately providing water passage holes in the partition plate (3), water flows reliably between the activated stones, increasing the passage time and contact area and improving purification. (C) Air vent holes, By providing the air vent pipe, the water is always full and the water flows uniformly and the purification is improved. (D) By rotating the activated stone chamber, there is no need to remove the activated stone, and the dirt can be completely removed without touching the dirt. Also, the activated stone chamber is cleanly cleaned by the contact of the stone. (E) Conventionally, maintenance was troublesome, work was difficult, and sometimes specialized maintenance personnel were required. However, according to the present invention, a user can easily operate with one button, and costs can be reduced.
