Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 This invention relates to an ionized water generator.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Conventionally, as this type of ion water generator, a relatively large-sized rectangular parallelepiped case, a purified water cartridge filled with an adsorbent such as activated carbon, and an electrolytic cell are separately built in, and tap water is supplied. It is said that while it is purified, it is sent to the electrolytic cell, electrolyzed into alkaline ionized water and acid water ionized water, and discharged to the outside.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 By the way, the conventional ionized water generator is capable of electrolytically generating tap water into alkaline ionized water and acidic ionized water, while it is equipped with a water purification cartridge and an electrolytic cell separately in the case. Therefore, it has the following drawbacks. That is, first of all, the ion water generator itself becomes large in size, and it is very difficult to secure the installation space. Secondly, the running water path is complicated and connecting the running water pipes and watertight treatment are very troublesome. Thirdly, the water supply faucet must be installed away from the faucet, so a very distinctive water supply pipe is required, which is likely to impair the aesthetics of the kitchen. Fourth, as described above, since the water faucet must be installed at a position away from the water faucet, the water faucet and the outlets of alkaline ionized water and acid ionized water are necessarily located apart from each other. This can cause the running water to drift and cause unnaturalness during the operation.

The present invention intends to solve the conventional problems all at once, and provides an extremely compact ion water generator which can be directly attached to a water faucet for use.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 That is, in this invention, an adsorbent-filled purified water cartridge 7 is detachably provided in an electrolytic cell 1 having an alkaline ionized water outlet 5 and an acidic ionized water outlet 6, respectively. A water faucet mounting portion 11 which communicates with the purified water cartridge 7 through a running water passage 13 is formed in the water discharging port 7, and the mounting portion 11 electrically connects alkaline ion water, acidic ion water and raw water. The configuration is such that a selectable switch 16 is provided.

[0006]

[Action]

 It is attached directly to the water faucet 19 via the attachment portion 11 and the changeover switch 16 is operated to electrolytically generate alkaline ionized water or acidic ionized water and discharge it to the outside from the required outlets 5 and 6.

[0007]

【Example】

 An embodiment of the present invention shown in the drawings will be described below. Reference numeral 1 is a horizontal type electrolytic cell, 2.3 is a required number of positive electrodes and negative electrodes internally provided in the electrolytic cell 1 through a diaphragm 4 for electrolysis, and 5 and 6 are connected to the electrolytic cell 1. The alkaline ionized water outlet and the acidic ionized water outlet formed by 7 are water purification cartridges detachably incorporated in the electrolysis tank 1. The water purification cartridge 7 includes side plates 8 of the electrolysis tank 1. It can be replaced by removing it. Reference numeral 9 denotes a calcium cylinder which is provided at one end side plate 8 of the electrolytic cell 1 so as to be freely exchangeable through a storage case 10 so as to communicate with the electrolytic cell 1, and 11 denotes a water faucet installation extending to the other end of the electrolytic cell 1. , 12 is a water supply port formed on the upper portion of the mounting part 11, 13 is a running water passage formed to connect the water supply port 12 and the water purification cartridge 7, and 14 is an annular shape in the water supply port 12. A socket with an outward flange fitted through a packing, 15 is a cap that is screwed into the water supply port 12 and locks the socket 14, and 16 is a switching switch provided on the side of the mounting part 11. 17 is a control box connected to the changeover switch 16 via a cord, and 18 is a power supply code for the control box 17, and the alkaline ionized water, the acidic ionized water To raw water Switching operation control - it is assumed to be controlled by Rubo' box 17. In addition, 19 shows a tap.

As shown in FIG. 2, the embodiment configured as described above is directly attached to the water passage faucet 19 via the attachment portion 11 and operated by the changeover switch 16 to operate the alkaline ion water / acid ion water.・ Selectively switch to raw water. That is, when the changeover switch 16 is switched to alkaline ionized water, the raw water supplied from the water faucet 19 flows into the purified water cartridge 7 through the flowing water passage 13 and is purified by the electrolytic cell 1 while being treated with alkaline ionized water. The alkaline ionized water produced by electrolysis is discharged from the discharge port 5 to the outside. When the changeover switch 16 is switched to acidic ionized water, similarly, the acidic ionized water electrolytically generated from the electrolytic cell 1 is discharged from the discharge port 6 to the outside. Further, when the changeover switch 16 is switched to raw water, the raw water from the water tap 19 flows into the purified water cartridge 7 through the flow passage 13, is purified, and is discharged from the alkaline ion water discharge port 5 to the outside. To be done. At this time, the electrolytic cell 1 is not operated under the control of the control box 17. Similarly, the changeover switch 16 may be appropriately operated to selectively switch between alkaline ionized water, acidic ionized water, and raw water.

[0009]

[Effect of device]

 Since the present invention is constructed as described above, it does not require a large installation space or a dedicated water supply pipe as in the conventional case, and is directly attached to the water faucet 19 through the attachment portion 11, and the changeover switch is provided. The raw water is purified by the purified water cartridge 7 by operating 16 and is electrolyzed sequentially by the electrolysis tank 1 to generate alkaline ionized water and acidic ionized water, respectively, and discharge them from the required discharge ports 5 and 6 to the outside. It can be done. In addition, since it is used by being directly attached to the water faucet 19, there is almost no time-dependent deviation of running water when the generated alkaline ion water or acidic ion water is discharged, and there is no unnaturalness due to the operation of the changeover switch 16. There is no such thing. Moreover, not only is the structure simple and easy to manufacture, but it is extremely compact, which makes it convenient for storage and transportation.
