[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a dedicated faucet for alkaline ionized water, acidic water, purified water, etc. generated through an ionized water generator installed in a cabinet such as a kitchen or restroom. More specifically, it relates to an ionized water generator. In addition to having a mechanism to stop the intake of water from the tap water, it also discharges alkaline ionized water and acidic water, which are inevitably generated by the ionized water generator, from separate water discharge pipes, and also during automatic cleaning. The present invention relates to a main stopcock for ionized water, in which alkaline ionized water is discharged from an ionized water discharge pipe, and an ionized water generator connected to the same.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 In recent years, various types of ionized water generators have been marketed as alkaline ionized water is effective for gastrointestinal-related visceral diseases. As mentioned above, the manufacturing and sales of this ionized water generator affect the human body, and therefore require approval from the Ministry of Health and Welfare as a medical device. Ionized water is obtained by electrolyzing tap water, and both alkaline ionized water and acidic water are produced at the same time.

To briefly explain the mechanism of producing ionized water, when raw water from a water pipe was sent to an ionized water generator, a calcium compound for food addition was added to the raw water and purified through a water purification section. It is later sent to the electrolytic cell. Ions dissolved in purified water are electrolyzed in the same electrolytic cell, and positive ions such as calcium and magnesium gather on the cathode side, and negative ions such as sulfate ions and chlorine ions gather on the anode side. The alkaline ionized water and the acidic water are produced in a separated state through the permeation separation membrane. The alkaline ionized water and the acidic water thus generated are sent to the outside through the respective outlets.

When water is electrolyzed for a long period of time, impurities such as minerals adhere to the electrodes. However, since these impair the electrolysis performance for originally producing ionized water, it is necessary to regularly clean the electrodes. Will be needed. This cleaning is performed manually after a certain period of use, or by automatically switching the electrodes after each use. At this time, the ion water opposite to normal is generated on each electrode side, that is, acidic water is generated on the side where normal alkaline water is generated, and alkaline ion water is generated on the side where normal acidic water is generated. Will be. If this is discharged as it is, acidic water will be mixed into the outlet on the drinking water side, and in order to avoid this, the water produced during electrode cleaning is generally drained individually through the outlet.

The above-mentioned ion water generator is generally marketed independently, and it is connected to an ordinary faucet via a dedicated adapter and installed at an appropriate place for use. On the other hand, recently, an ion water generator has been installed in the cabinet, and a faucet dedicated to ion water has been installed in the sink part attached to the cabinet, and the ion water outlet of the ion water generator and the water The faucet is connected with a water supply pipe so that ion water can be taken out from the faucet.

According to the simplest structure, the faucet dedicated to ion water is connected to the alkaline ion water outlet of the ion water generator, and only the alkaline ion water is discharged from the discharge pipe of the faucet. The acid water generated on the one hand is drained as it is, or piping is made so that it can be taken out separately by an option. Also, the water discharge pipe of the faucet is shared, and the alkaline ionized water, the acidic water and the purified water are discharged from one water discharge pipe by the switching valve operation, and three kinds of water are the same depending on the application. Some have made it possible to use it selectively from the water discharge pipe. A touch button type changeover switch provided on a part of the surface of the faucet is used to operate the changeover valve, and the electromagnetic changeover valve is activated by selectively pressing the switch, so that alkaline ionized water or acid water is activated. And the desired waterway is selected from each of the waterways for water purification.

[0007]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, even in the ion water generator in which the type of water discharged from the discharge pipe can be arbitrarily selected by operating the switching valve, a single discharge pipe is shared, and therefore water is discharged from the discharge pipe. All types of water other than the water that flows through will be discharged to the outside through the drain pipe.

In this type of ionized water generator, the main purpose is to generate alkaline ionized water, so that the water taken out from the water discharge pipe is often alkaline ionized water. Thus, the ionized water generator not only produces acidic water at the same time as the production of alkaline ionized water as described above, but also removes chlorine and impurities even when it does not produce ionized water, and further removes offensive odors. It can be used as a container. In particular, the acidic water has an effect as astringent, and even if the astringent effect is lost with the passage of time, it can be used as water that is cleaner than the purified water. Nevertheless, most are treated as mere drainage.

Therefore, as described above, it has been proposed that a water discharge pipe separate from the above water discharge pipe is optionally provided so that the alkaline water can be taken in and the acidic water can be taken in at the same time. In many cases, the location of the other water discharge pipes is limited, so the positions of the two water discharge pipes tend to be distant and the usability is extremely poor. If it is attempted to install the water discharge pipe, it will not only be time-consuming to construct, but it will also affect the option cost, and the current situation is that we cannot meet latent demand.

[0010] Also, the generated water generated on both electrode sides during electrode cleaning is usually drained to sewer from a dedicated drain port, although it is not contaminated water. Therefore, draining clean water in this way not only leads to wasteful use of water resources, but also increases the amount of sewage treated, and if possible, the previously washed water is also effective. It is desirable to be able to utilize it.

The present invention solves such problems all at once, and the first purpose thereof is to take out the ionized water, which is the object of the main purpose of use, from one discharge pipe at the same time as to generate other by simple operation. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a faucet having a structure that allows water to be taken in the vicinity of the discharge pipe without draining the ionized water that is generated. The second purpose requires special construction to achieve the above purpose. Therefore, it is possible to set a very reasonable price compared to the above option price without the need for special installation work and extra material for the spout pipe for other ion water that is secondarily taken in. It is to provide a faucet only for ionized water.

A third object is to make effective use of water resources by making it possible to take in water from each of the above-mentioned water discharge pipes without draining the generated water at the time of cleaning the electrodes, and regarding the passage of alkaline ionized water. It is an object to provide a faucet and an ion water generator that are configured to allow alkaline ionized water to pass through at all times and can avoid health effects.

[0013]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 As a result of earnest studies to solve these problems at the same time, it was found that adopting the following configuration is the most rational. That is, the gist of the present invention is to generate purified water or ion water from tap water by an ion water generator installed in a cabinet below the faucet mounting part of a kitchen or a restroom, and to generate ion water or the like. A faucet that is taken out from a water discharge pipe of the faucet through a pipe, has a tap water supply port and a drain port, and forms a tap water passage internally connecting the supply and drain ports. At the same time, at least first and second ion water passages are formed which are respectively connected to the intakes of the alkaline ionized water and the acidic water of the ionized water generator and connect between the intakes and the ionized water outlets. An opening / closing unit having a faucet body, first and second water discharge pipes attached to respective ion water outlets of the faucet body, and an on-off valve arranged in the middle of the tap water passage to open and close the passage. It has and.

More preferably, a manual switching means is provided in front of the first and second ion water intakes of the faucet body in conjunction with the automatic electrode cleaning mechanism, whereby water is selectively discharged from each ion water outlet. In this way, effective use of ionized water and purified water is attempted.

When the ion generator having the automatic cleaning function is used, it is connected to the cleaning water drain port of the ion generator and the first and second ion water intake ports of the faucet body. The pipe line or the first and second ion water passages of the faucet body are provided with automatic switching means for automatically switching the passages in association with the operation of automatic cleaning. Alkaline ionized water and acid water can be discharged from the passages.

[0016]

[Action]

 Now, when the opening / closing valve is opened by operating the opening / closing operation part, raw water from the water pipe passes through the tap water supply / drain passage from the tap main body and is sent to the tap water intake of the ion water generator. When tap water is sent to the ion water generator, calcium compounds for food addition are added, and the odor of chlorine and various foreign substances are removed and purified through the water purification unit before being sent to the inside of the electrolytic cell.

In the electrolyzer, ions dissolved in water are electrolyzed, and positive ions are collected on the cathode side, and negative ions are collected on the anode side, and the alkaline ion water and the acidic water are passed through the permeation separation membrane. And are generated in a separated state. The alkaline ionized water and the acidic water thus generated are fed again to the respective ionized water intake ports of the faucet body through the respective dedicated supply ports.

The alkaline ionized water and the acidic water sent to the respective ionized water intake ports of the faucet body pass through the first and second ionized water passages in the faucet body, and respectively come into the first ionized water outlet and the first ionized water outlet. It discharges simultaneously from the 1st and 2nd water discharge pipes through 2 ion water outlets.

The alkaline ionized water thus discharged can be taken in as drinking water or cooking water, and at the same time, acidic water can be stored as astringent, or for washing and bathing, and wasteful drainage is eliminated. In this case, there is no need to install special piping, and it is possible to make it compact as one unit, and the construction is extremely easy.

When the manual switching means is operated, the ions of the ion-generated water discharged from the first and second water discharge pipes are reversed, or the purified water instead of the ion water can be selectively taken. Furthermore, during automatic cleaning, in which the electrodes are automatically switched when the water intake is stopped, the automatic switching means of the generated water passage works in conjunction, and the ion water generated during cleaning in the ion generator is exclusively used for alkaline ionized water. The alkaline ionized water is discharged from the first discharge pipe, which is a water discharge pipe, and the acidic water is discharged from the second discharge pipe dedicated to the acidic water.

【Example】

 Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. 1 to 4 show the structure of a faucet 1 showing a first embodiment of the present invention. In these drawings, reference numeral 2 is a faucet body, 3 is a first water discharge pipe, and 4 is a second water discharge pipe. Reference numeral 5 denotes an opening / closing operation portion of the tap water passage.

That is, according to the present invention, as shown in FIG. 5, purified water or ion water is supplied from tap water by an ion water generator 11 installed in a cabinet 10 below a faucet mounting portion of a kitchen or a restroom. Regarding the ion water faucet 1 that is produced and is taken out from the water discharge pipes 3 and 4 of the faucet 1 through a pipe 12, the ion water faucet 1 includes a tap water supply port 2a. And the drainage port 2b, and the water supply / drainage ports 2a, 2b are connected to each other via the tap water supply / drainage channels 2c, 2d formed therein, and at least the alkaline ionized water and the acidic water of the ionized water generator 11 are connected. The first and second ion water passages 2i for connecting between the ion water intake ports 2e, 2f and the ion water outlets 2g, 2h, which are respectively connected to the respective supply ports 11a, 11b via the pipe 12. 2j formed faucet The main body 2, the first and second water discharge pipes 3 and 4 attached to the ion water outlets 2g and 2h of the faucet main body 2, and the tap water supply and drainage channels 2c and 2d, respectively. An opening / closing operation section 5 having an opening / closing valve 5a for connecting / disconnecting the passages 2c and 2d is provided.

The faucet body 2 in the illustrated example shows the simplest configuration example in the present invention, and the faucet body 2 has four water passages inside as shown in FIGS. 1 to 4. Of these water passages, reference numerals 2c and 2d indicate tap water supply / drain passages, and reference numerals 2i and 2j indicate first and second ion water passages. The tap water supply / drainage channels 2c, 2d are connected at their upper ends, while the lower ends thereof are opened to form tap water supply / drainage ports 2a, 2b, respectively. The water is supplied from the water supply port 2a through the pipe 12 and is also sent from the drainage port 2b to the tap water intake port 11c of the ion water generator 11.

On the other hand, the lower ends of the ion water passages 2 i and 2 j are opened to form ion water intake ports 2 e and 2 f, and both ion water intake ports 2 e and 2 f are connected to the ion water generator 11 via a pipe 12. It is connected to each of the ion water supply ports 11a and 11b. The upper end of the first ion water passage 2i communicates with the first ion water outlet 2g formed at the center of the upper surface of the faucet body 2. The upper end of the second ion water passage 2j is in the form of a blind hole, and a second ion water outlet 2h that is in lateral communication with the upper end of the passage 2j is opened. In this embodiment, the first ion water passage 2i is connected to the alkaline ion water supply port 11a of the ion water generator 11, and the second ion water passage 2j is connected to the acidic water supply port 11b.

The first water discharge pipe 3 is attached to the first ion water outlet 2g of the water faucet body 2 in a watertight state, and the second water discharge pipe 4 is watertight to the second ion water outlet 2h. It is installed in the state. Therefore, in this embodiment, the first water discharge pipe 3 is exclusively used for alkaline ionized water, and the second water discharge pipe is exclusively used for acidic water.

At the upper end connecting portions of the tap water supply / drainage channels 2c and 2d, a mounting opening portion 2k of the opening / closing operation portion 5 for opening / closing the connecting portion is formed, and the opening / closing operation portion 5 is opened / closed at the opening portion 2k. The valve 5a is tightly fitted. The on-off valve 5a is operated by an operation handle 5b attached to the on-off valve 5a, and the operation handle 5b has a built-in switch (not shown). The switch is turned on and off to turn on and off the power supply of the ion water generator 11. That is, when the operation handle 5b is rotated, the valve body of the on-off valve 5a advances and retracts to open and close the upper end connecting portions of the tap water supply and drainage channels 2c and 2d, and at the same time, the ion water generator 11 is turned on and off. . Further, since the on-off valve 5a has a function of stopping tap water, it is not necessary to provide a separate stop, and it does not take water and stop the tap water.

In principle, the ion water generator 11 may have the same structure as the ion water generator described above. Therefore, the main circuit configuration will be briefly described here based on the example shown in FIG.

In the figure, the part indicated by the chain double-dashed line shows the main part of the ion water generator 11, and tap water discharged through the inside of the faucet 1 of the present invention is ionized through a pipe 12. It is sent to the tap water intake 11c of the water generator 11. If necessary, the tap water that has entered the ion water generator 11 is added with calcium for food addition, and then, for example, in the water purification unit 11d equipped with antibacterial activated carbon and a hollow fiber membrane, odor of chlorine, organic matter, red rust, fine particles, fine particles, Bacteria are removed, and then various ions are electrolyzed by the electrolytic bath 11e to generate alkaline ionized water and acidic water through the permeable separation membrane. The alkaline ionized water and the acidic water are sent again to the faucet 1 of the present invention through the dedicated supply ports 11a and 11b, respectively.

In the above configuration, when the operation handle 5b is now rotated to open the opening / closing valve 5a, the raw water from the water pipe passes through the pipe 12 from the water supply port 2a of the faucet body 2 to the tap water supply / drainage channel 2c. , 2d to be fed into the tap water intake port 11c of the ion water generator 11. When the tap water is sent to the ion water generator 11, the calcium compound for food addition is first added to the raw water, and the chlorine odor and various foreign substances are removed and purified through the water purification section 11d, and then the electrolytic cell 11e. Sent inside.

In the electrolytic cell 11e, ions dissolved in water are electrolyzed, and positive ions such as calcium and magnesium are collected on the cathode side, and negative ions such as sulfate ion and chlorine ion are collected on the anode side. Collect and generate alkaline ionized water and acidic water in a separated state through the permeation separation membrane. The alkaline ionized water and the acidic water thus generated are sent again to the ionized water intake ports 2e, 2f of the faucet body 2 through the respective dedicated supply ports 11a, 11b and the pipe 12.

The alkaline ionized water and the acidic water sent to the ion water intake ports 2e, 2f of the faucet body 2 pass through the first and second ionized water passages 2i, 2j in the faucet body 2 respectively. At the same time, the water is discharged from the first and second water discharge pipes 3 and 4 through the first ion water outlet 2g and the second ion water outlet 2h.

The alkaline ionized water thus discharged is taken in as drinking water or cooking water, and at the same time, the acidic water is stored as astringent, or for washing and bathing. In this case, both ionized water can be taken from the same faucet at the same time, so there is no need to provide a switching means for obtaining one of the ionized water as in the conventional case, or it is not necessary to provide a special pipe for that, and it is compact as one unit. It is possible to make it easier and the construction is extremely easy.

FIG. 6 shows a schematic view of a second embodiment of the present invention. In the same embodiment, a faucet body 2 is provided with a dial type changeover switch 6, and the dial type changeover switch 6 is changed over. Depending on the operation, by operating a solenoid valve (not shown) or the like, any one of the two water discharge pipes 3 and 4 can discharge any one of alkaline ionized water, acidic water and purified water from a desired water discharge pipe 3 or 4. It is easy to use. For simplicity of explanation, the main components of the above-mentioned ion water generator 11 are listed, but in addition to the above-described configuration, for example, an automatic electrode cleaning mechanism and a pH adjusting mechanism in the electrolytic cell 11e are usually used. It is equipped with incidental equipment such as.

In the above example, the cleaning water generated by the automatic cleaning is discharged from the dedicated drain port provided in the electrolytic cell 11e of the ion generator as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6. In the third embodiment shown in FIG. 7, the drainage port is eliminated and the cleaning water is effectively used.

The automatic cleaning operates when the operation handle 5b is rotated to close the opening / closing valve 5a and the flow rate of the tap water supply / drainage channels 2c and 2d becomes equal to or less than a predetermined flow rate, and the polarity of the electrode is set in advance. The predetermined time (20 to 30 seconds) is automatically switched, and acidic water is generated on the side of the alkaline ionized water that has been generated until then, and alkaline ionized water is generated on the side of generating the acidic water. Then, when the above time elapses, the electrode is switched to the original polarity again, and normal ionized water is generated on both sides at the next generation of ionized water.

Therefore, when the operating handle 5b of the faucet in the present invention is rotated to open the opening / closing valve 5a, the first spout pipe 3 which originally should be the acidic water produced at the time of cleaning should be the exclusive use of alkaline ionized water. The alkaline ionized water is discharged from the second discharge pipe 4 which should be used only for acidic water. Therefore, when the generation of ionized water is repeated frequently, there is a concern that acidic water will be taken from the first water discharge pipe 3, which is the spout of drinking water. This can have bad health effects.

The third embodiment shown in FIG. 7 is also made in consideration of the viewpoint of health and hygiene. In this embodiment, in the ion water generator of the second embodiment shown in FIG. 6, the drain port for automatic washing water is eliminated, and the alkaline ion water supply port 11a and the acidic ion water supply port 11b of the ion water generator 11 are eliminated. A well-known automatic switching valve 7 and a discharge pump 8 are provided in the middle of the two pipes 12 which are connected between the two ion water intake ports 2e and 2f of the faucet body 2. The automatic switching valve 7 is operated in conjunction with the automatic electrode switching means (not shown) in the automatic cleaning mechanism, and the discharge pump 8 completes the automatic cleaning from the time when the electrodes are switched and the automatic switching valve 7 is operated. Drain the water in the electrolyzer. In this embodiment, the automatic switching valve 7 and the drainage pump 8 are attached to the two pipes as described above, but if the installation is allowed, both can be built in the faucet body 2.

Now, in the ion generator of the third embodiment configured as described above, when the operation handle 5b is operated and the on-off valve 5a is closed, the flow rate of the tap water supply / drainage channels 2c, 2d is reduced. When the flow rate is detected by a known flow meter (not shown) and the flow rate reaches a predetermined flow rate or less, the automatic cleaning mechanism operates to automatically switch the electrodes. At the same time when the electrodes are switched, the automatic switching valve 7 attached to the two pipes 12 is switched, and the alkaline ionized water supply port 11a of the ionized water generator 11 is connected to the acidic water intake port 2f of the faucet body 2. At the same time, the acidic water supply port 11b is connected to the alkaline ionized water intake port 2e of the faucet body 2, and at the same time, the drainage pump 8 is operated to discharge the distilled water in the electrolytic cell. Then, when the cleaning of the electrodes is completed after a predetermined time has passed, the electrodes are automatically switched again and the automatic switching valve 7 is also automatically switched. Therefore, even if the operation handle 5b is operated at the next ion water intake, only the alkaline water, which is not mixed with the acidic water from the beginning, is discharged from the first discharge pipe 3 which is the inlet for the alkaline water. From the second water discharge pipe 4, which is an acidic water intake port, only acidic water that is not mixed with alkaline ionized water is discharged from the beginning.

[0039]
