Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a water purifier mainly suitable for home use that purifies raw water and provides magnetized water.

The water purifier of the present invention is a water quality improvement device that activates drinking water, but it can also be developed to provide purified water for bathtub water and other uses, and to provide large quantities of purified water for industrial use.

[Conventional technology]

Known technologies in the field of household water purifiers include the following.

Utility Model No. 59-10892〓Water purifier〓 Improvement of the inner container containing the Roca element Utility Model No. 53-12048〓Water purifier〓 Improved to purify two types of Roca materials by sequentially distributing them Utility Model No. 58-26008 No. A device that contains a magnetic material in a fluid.

[Problem to be solved]

However, water purifiers or loca devices such as those typified by the above-mentioned known techniques have had the following problems.

First, the LOCA element of conventional water purifiers was normally immersed in the water remaining in the water purifier, which posed the risk of microbial growth and deterioration of the LOCA element.

In addition, the purification ability of the Roka element naturally deteriorates, so it is necessary to replace it with a new Roka material on a regular basis. However, water purifiers are tightly assembled to prevent water leaks, so they are usually used as Roka elements. Disassembly work to replace the element was time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the watertight packing was often damaged, impairing its watertight durability.

Furthermore, when conventional water purifiers are used as they are in cold regions, residual water in the water purifiers may freeze and damage the water purifier itself. On the other hand, in the case where a magnetic substance is applied to the fluid to be purified to magnetize it, the magnet is buried in water and brought into contact with it, which confuses purification and magnetization, and there is no concept of carrying out magnetization after purification. .

Therefore, in this invention, firstly, the water is easily separated from the Roca element, secondly, the separated water is automatically discharged to the outside, and thirdly, as much as possible, residual water remains inside the water purifier. 4th is a configuration that allows easy replacement of the Loca element, 5th is a configuration that does not impair watertight durability, and 6th is a configuration that performs purification and magnetization over time in the water treatment process and directly attaches a magnet to purified water. They studied and devised a structure that could apply a strong magnetic force without making contact.

By achieving such a configuration, the present invention continuously supplies purified magnetized water, automatically separates residual water from the LOCA element, prevents deterioration of the LOCA capacity, has excellent cleanliness maintenance ability, and can be easily disassembled and reassembled. To provide a durable water purifier that does not impair watertightness even when exposed to water.

[Means for solving problems]

Here, the present invention consists of an inner container in which a water discharge pipe is erected and contains a loca element, a case in which a waterway is formed around the entire circumference of the inner container, and a base equipped with a water supply port and a drain port, and the water discharge pipe is The water purifier is characterized in that a magnet is provided in the inner container, a valve is provided in the center of the bottom of the inner container, and the water supply and drainage port is located below the valve.

The water discharge pipe is installed vertically close to the valve at the bottom, and a cylindrical magnet is fitted into the upper part of the pipe that protrudes from the inner container inside the case.

The inner container also has a small protrusion on the bottom to form a water channel.

The valve of the inner container is located directly above the water supply and drainage port provided in the base, and when water is supplied from the base or when the water supply is stopped, it automatically rises and lowers depending on the water pressure difference. This is for opening the opening.

The base has an inclined water supply channel and a drainage channel, and these channels are formed in a V-shape in plan so that they merge into one water supply and drainage port.

The case is fitted into a groove in a base provided with packing and connected with a nut, and the case and base press the packing to maintain watertightness.

[Effect]

The present invention has the above-mentioned configuration, and to explain the purifying magnetization effect, first, the valve is closed by the water pressure of water supply.

Water enters the gap formed by the small protrusion at the bottom of the inner container as a waterway and rises through the waterway around the body of the inner container.
After rising above the upper lid, the water is introduced into the loca element through the water inlet of the upper lid and is locarated.

When it reaches the bottom, there is an open end of the water spouting pipe that sends purified water through the pipe, but there is a strong cylindrical magnet at the top of the pipe, which turns it into magnetized water and supplies it. .

The activated and magnetized purified water can be continuously supplied from the water discharge pipe by continuing the water supply.

In addition, when draining water when not using it for a long time or when replacing the Roca Element, simply stop the water supply and open the drain pot to drain the remaining water inside the case and the inner container containing the Roca Element. ,
It can be discharged simultaneously and automatically.
