る。 Thereafter, when the faucet 16 is closed to stop the mineral water from flowing out, the water pressure within the delivery pipe 15 increases.
When the water pressure rise exceeds a predetermined value, pressure detector 2
Based on the detection operation No. 1, the electromagnetic valve 10 is switched back to the closed state, and the supply of tap water in the elution container 4 is stopped. At the same time, the pump 18 is activated to form a circulation waterway as shown by the dashed arrow in FIG. The water is returned to the water storage tank 12 and the elution container 4 to circulate the water therebetween. This operation is performed for a predetermined time set by the timer 22, and then the operation of the pump 18 is stopped. Therefore, after the faucet 16 is closed, the water stored in the water storage tank 12 flows into the elution container 4 for a predetermined period of time.
The mineral water is automatically circulated between the ore 6 and the mineral content is sufficiently eluted from the ore 6 into the circulating water, so that mineral water with a high mineral content can be taken out at all times.
