Embodiment 1
It will be as follows if one embodiment of the present invention is described.

(Summary of hydrogen water generator 101)
FIG. 1 is a schematic configuration diagram of a hydrogen water generating apparatus 101 according to the present embodiment.

The hydrogen water generating device 101 is a one-pass type hydrogen water generating device that mixes hydrogen gas with water in flowing water to generate hydrogen water while water flows once in the device, and the agitator 1 , A water supply source 2, a first water passage 3, a second water passage 4, and a hydrogen gas (H ₂ gas) supply passage 5. In the present embodiment, a water supply is described as an example of the water supply source 2. That is, the first water passage 3 is directly connected to the faucet of the water supply source 2. Therefore, adjustment of the discharge amount of tap water is adjusted by the opening amount of the tap of the water supply 2 which is the water supply source.

  The first water passage 3 is a water passage for supplying the water from the water supply source 2 to the agitator 1, and the second water passage 4 is a passage for delivering the water discharged from the agitator 1 to the intake side. It is a water channel. The hydrogen gas supply passage 5 is a supply passage for supplying the hydrogen gas to the agitator 1 from a gas supply source such as a gas cylinder not shown.

  The agitator 1 includes an agitation tank 1a and an agitation blade 1b, and water supplied from the first water passage 3 and hydrogen gas supplied from the hydrogen gas supply channel 5 using the agitation blade 1b in the agitation tank 1a. And the water after the stirring is discharged to the second water passage 4.

  The stirring blade 1b is driven by a stirring motor 6 provided outside the stirring tank 1a. A rotation shaft (not shown) of the stirring blade 1 b protrudes outside the stirring tank 1 a and is connected to the stirring motor 6. In addition, although the stirring blade 1b and the stirring motor 6 may be connected by a rotating shaft as mentioned above, it is not limited to this, For example, the stirring blade 1b and the stirring motor 6 may be connected by magnet coupling . Details of the magnet coupling will be described later.

(Generation of hydrogen water by hydrogen water generator 101)
In order to generate hydrogen water by the hydrogen water generation apparatus 101, first, tap water which is the water supply source 2 is passed through the first water passage 3. At the same time when the tap water flows through the first water passage 3, hydrogen gas is sent from the hydrogen gas supply source to the hydrogen gas supply passage 5. Thereafter, the tap water passed through the first water passage 3 and the hydrogen gas sent to the hydrogen gas feed passage 5 are supplied to the agitator 1. Here, the supply amount of hydrogen gas to the stirrer 1 is 100 cc / min, and the supply amount of tap water to the stirrer 1 is 1.1 l / min.

  In the agitator 1, the supplied tap water and hydrogen gas are agitated by the agitation blade 1b in the agitation tank 1a. As a result of stirring, hydrogen gas having a saturation concentration of hydrogen (about 1.6 ppm) is contained in tap water. The agitator 1 sends out tap water (hereinafter, hydrogen water) containing high concentration hydrogen gas after agitation to the second water passage 4. The hydrogen water sent out to the second water passage 4 is taken and becomes drinking water.

(effect)
According to the above configuration, since the stirrer 1 is disposed at the connection portion between the first water passage 3 and the second water passage 4, hydrogen gas is mixed while water flows through the apparatus once. Compared to the conventional system in which water is circulated to increase hydrogen concentration by so-called transient treatment (one-pass system), hydrogen water containing high concentration of hydrogen can be generated in a short time. Play.

  Thus, if a hydrogen water generator is used to generate hydrogen water containing high concentration of hydrogen in a short time, the user can easily generate hydrogen water and efficiently consume hydrogen gas by drinking a small amount of hydrogen water. It can be ingested.

  In the present embodiment, the pressure (internal pressure) in the water passage formed of the agitator 1, the first water passage 3 and the second water passage 4 is increased in order to facilitate the dissolution of hydrogen gas into water. In the second embodiment described below, an example in which a configuration for increasing the internal pressure of the water passage is added will be described.

Second Embodiment
It will be as follows if other embodiment of this invention is described. In addition, about the member which has the same function as the member demonstrated in the said embodiment for convenience of explanation, the same code | symbol is appended and the description is abbreviate | omitted.

(Summary of hydrogen water generator 102)
FIG. 2 is a schematic configuration diagram of the hydrogen water generating apparatus 102 according to the present embodiment. Although the hydrogen water generating apparatus 102 has substantially the same configuration as the hydrogen water generating apparatus 101 of the first embodiment, it does not have a configuration in which the first water passage 3 is directly connected to the faucet of the water supply source 2, The first water passage 3 is directly connected to a tank for storing water.

  A water supply pump 7 is provided in the first water flow path 3 in order to supply tank water to the agitator 1. In the present embodiment, the flow rate of water flowing from the tank by the water supply pump 7 is 1.1 L / min.

  The second water passage 4 is connected to a thin tube 8 having an inner diameter (e.g., 1/8 inch) smaller than the inner diameter (e.g., 1/4 inch) of a tube constituting the second water passage 4. The thin tube 8 consists of a thin tube of 1.8 m in length. The material of the tubule 8 is not particularly limited as long as it is the same material as the tube used in a general apparatus for producing potable water. As described above, the capillary 8 is connected to the second water flow passage 4 so that the water which is sent out from the agitator 1 and flows through the second water flow passage 4 is formed into the capillary 8 having a smaller inner diameter of the second water passage 4. At the time of entry, the internal pressure of the water passage (the first water passage 3, the water feed pump 7, the agitator 1, the second water passage 4) increases. Therefore, the thin tube 8 functions as a pressurizing unit for increasing the internal pressure of the water passage.

  Furthermore, the pressure gauge 9 for measuring the internal pressure of the said water flow path is provided in the 1st water flow path 3. As shown in FIG.

  Although the amount of hydrogen gas dissolved in increases as the internal pressure of the water passage by the thin tube 8 increases, for example, from the graph shown in FIG. 10, the hydrogen water generation device 102 starts generating hydrogen water (pressing a drinking button) for drinking It can be seen that the time (water intake time) until possible hydrogen water can be taken is extended. Therefore, the internal pressure of the water passage may be set in consideration of the hydrogen concentration and the intake time.

(Generation of hydrogen water by hydrogen water generator 102)
In order to generate hydrogen water by the hydrogen water generation device 102, first, the water in the water storage tank, which is the water supply source 2, is supplied to the first water passage 3 by the water supply pump 7. Simultaneously with the water flow to the first water flow path 3, hydrogen gas is sent from the hydrogen gas supply source (cylinder) to the hydrogen gas supply path 5. Thereafter, the water passed through the first water passage 3 and the hydrogen gas sent to the hydrogen gas supply passage 5 are supplied to the agitator 1.

  In the stirrer 1, the supplied water and hydrogen gas are stirred by the stirring blade 1b in the stirring tank 1a. Stirring causes the tap water to contain hydrogen gas in an amount exceeding the saturation concentration of hydrogen (about 1.6 ppm). The agitator 1 delivers water containing hydrogen gas of high concentration after stirring (hereinafter, hydrogen water) to the second water passage 4. The hydrogen water sent out to the second water flow path 4 flows into the narrow tube 8 and is taken and becomes drinking water.

(effect)
According to the above configuration, since the stirrer 1 is disposed at the connection portion between the first water passage 3 and the second water passage 4, hydrogen gas is mixed while water flows through the apparatus once. Compared to the conventional system in which water is circulated to increase hydrogen concentration by so-called transient treatment (one-pass system), hydrogen water containing high concentration of hydrogen can be generated in a short time. Play.

  Moreover, since the capillary 8 having an inner diameter smaller than the inner diameter of the second conduit 4 is connected to the second conduit 4, hydrogen water flows from the second conduit 4 into the capillary 8, The internal pressure of the water passage (the second water passage 4, the stirrer 1, the first water passage 3) on the upstream side of the thin tube 8 is increased. As a result, the hydrogen gas can be more easily dissolved in water, and hydrogen water containing higher concentration of hydrogen can be obtained.

  Here, the following comparison demonstrates that the stirrer 1 is an important member for raising hydrogen concentration.

  In the case of the hydrogen water generating apparatus 102 shown in FIG. 2, when the supply amount of hydrogen gas to the agitator 1 is 100 cc / min and the supply amount of tap water to the agitator 1 is 1.1 l / min, The hydrogen concentration of the withdrawn hydrogen water was 3.4 ppm at an internal pressure of 3.6 atm in the path.

  FIG. 3 shows a hydrogen water producing device 103 in which the stirrer 1 is omitted from the hydrogen water producing device 102 shown in FIG. In the case of the hydrogen water generating apparatus 103 shown in FIG. 3, when the supply amount of hydrogen gas to the agitator 1 is 100 cc / min and the supply amount of tap water to the agitator 1 is 1.1 l / min, The hydrogen concentration of the withdrawn hydrogen water was 1.9 ppm at an internal pressure of 3.6 atm in the path.

  Even in the hydrogen water producing apparatus 103 shown in FIG. 3, hydrogen water having a hydrogen concentration exceeding the saturation concentration of hydrogen (about 1.6 ppm) could be produced, but like the hydrogen water producing apparatus 102 shown in FIG. In addition, when water and hydrogen gas are stirred using the stirrer 1, hydrogen water having a higher hydrogen concentration can be obtained.

  As described above, also in the present embodiment, if a hydrogen water generator for generating hydrogen water containing high concentration of hydrogen in a short time is used, the user can easily generate hydrogen water and drink a small amount of hydrogen water. Hydrogen gas can be efficiently consumed. In the following third embodiment, an example in which the hydrogen concentration of hydrogen water is further increased will be described.

Third Embodiment
It will be as follows if other embodiment of this invention is described. In addition, about the member which has the same function as the member demonstrated in the said embodiment for convenience of explanation, the same code | symbol is appended and the description is abbreviate | omitted.

(Summary of hydrogen water generator 104)
FIG. 4 is a schematic configuration diagram of the hydrogen water generating device 104 according to the present embodiment. The hydrogen water generation device 103 has substantially the same configuration as the hydrogen water generation device 102 of the second embodiment, but the gas phase gas (mainly hydrogen gas) formed by the vortex flow generated inside the stirrer 1 is outside This embodiment differs in that a gas discharge path 10 is provided to discharge the gas. That is, in the hydrogen water generating apparatus 103, the gas discharge path 10 for discharging the gas phase gas of the vortex formed at the time of stirring in the stirrer 1 to the outside is formed. It is connected to the downstream side (the second water passage 4) of the water passage (the first water passage 3 and the second water passage 4). As described above, the gas discharge path 10 is connected to the second water passage 4 so that the water (hydrogen water) flowing in the second water passage 4 is mixed with the gas. Thereby, in the hydrogen water generating device 104 of FIG. 4, the gas discharge path 10 formed in the stirrer 1 discharges the gas of the gas phase formed by the eddy current generated inside the stirring tank 1 a, The 2 water flow path 4 discharges the liquid (hydrogen water) of the liquid phase formed by the vortex generated in the inside of the stirring tank 1a.

  The gas discharge path 10 is preferably formed at a position corresponding to the rotation center of the rotating shaft 17 (FIG. 5) for rotating the stirring blade 1b in the stirring tank 1a. This is because the hydrogen gas is collected around the rotation shaft 17 when the stirring blade 1b rotates in the stirring tank 1a, so the gas discharge path 10 is disposed as close to the rotation shaft 17 as possible in the stirring tank 1a. Is preferable. However, the formation position of the gas discharge path 10 is not limited to the above-mentioned example, and may be a position which can discharge the gas (hydrogen gas) generated in the stirring tank 1a.

(Generation of hydrogen water by hydrogen water generator 104)
In order to generate hydrogen water by the hydrogen water generation device 104, first, the water in the water storage tank, which is the water supply source 2, is fed to the first water passage 3 by the water feed pump 7. Simultaneously with the water flow to the first water flow path 3, hydrogen gas is sent from the hydrogen gas supply source (cylinder) to the hydrogen gas supply path 5. Thereafter, the water passed through the first water passage 3 and the hydrogen gas sent to the hydrogen gas supply passage 5 are supplied to the agitator 1.

  In the stirrer 1, the supplied water and hydrogen gas are stirred by the stirring blade 1b in the stirring tank 1a. Stirring causes the tap water to contain hydrogen gas in an amount exceeding the saturation concentration of hydrogen (about 1.6 ppm). The agitator 1 delivers water containing hydrogen gas of high concentration after stirring (hereinafter, hydrogen water) to the second water passage 4. Since the gas (hydrogen gas) discharged from the gas phase of the agitator 1 is supplied to the second water passage 4 by the gas discharge path 10, hydrogen is further added to the hydrogen water flowing in the second water passage 4. Gas is mixed. The hydrogen water further mixed with hydrogen gas in the second water flow path 4 flows into the narrow tube 8 and is taken and becomes drinking water.

(effect)
According to the above configuration, since the stirrer 1 is disposed at the connection portion between the first water passage 3 and the second water passage 4, hydrogen gas is mixed while water flows through the apparatus once. Compared to the conventional system in which water is circulated to increase hydrogen concentration by so-called transient treatment (one-pass system), hydrogen water containing high concentration of hydrogen can be generated in a short time. Play.

  Moreover, since the capillary 8 having an inner diameter smaller than the inner diameter of the second conduit 4 is connected to the second conduit 4, hydrogen water flows from the second conduit 4 into the capillary 8, The internal pressure of the water passage (the second water passage 4, the stirrer 1, the first water passage 3) on the upstream side of the thin tube 8 is increased. As a result, the hydrogen gas can be more easily dissolved in water, and hydrogen water containing higher concentration of hydrogen can be obtained.

  Furthermore, in the second water flow path 4 through which hydrogen water containing high concentration hydrogen flows by the stirrer 1, gas phase gas (hydrogen gas) of the stirrer 1 is further supplied by the gas discharge path 10, As hydrogen gas is further mixed, hydrogen water containing very high concentration of hydrogen is obtained.

  In the case of the hydrogen water generating apparatus 104 shown in FIG. 4, when the supply amount of hydrogen gas to the agitator 1 is 100 cc / min and the supply amount of tap water to the agitator 1 is 1.1 l / min, The hydrogen concentration of the withdrawn hydrogen water was 3.9 ppm at an internal pressure of 3.6 atm in the path. The hydrogen concentration of the hydrogen water was higher than that of the hydrogen water generator 102 shown in FIG.

  Thus, if a hydrogen water generator is used to generate hydrogen water containing high concentration of hydrogen in a short time, the user can easily generate hydrogen water and efficiently consume hydrogen gas by drinking a small amount of hydrogen water. It can be ingested.

  In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4, the connection destination of the gas discharge path 10 is the second water flow path 4 in front of the narrow tube 8. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. It may be just before the intake of water, or anywhere in the flow path below the agitator 1.

  In addition, the stirrer 1 mounted in the hydrogen water generating apparatus 104 which concerns on this embodiment is simplified and described, as shown in FIG. 4 for convenience of explanation. The detailed structure of the stirrer 1 will be described below.

(Piping of agitator 1)
FIG. 5 is a schematic sectional view of the stirrer 1. FIG. 6 is a schematic configuration perspective view of a stirring blade 1 b provided in the stirrer 1.

  As shown in FIG. 5, the stirrer 1 is for discharging the mixed water (hydrogen water) mixed in the stirring vessel 1a, the pipe 11 serving as the first water passage 3 for taking in water in the stirring vessel 1a. A pipe 12 serving as the second water passage 4 and a pipe 13 serving as the gas discharge path 10 for discharging the gas (hydrogen gas) in the gas phase generated in the stirring tank 1a are connected. Furthermore, a pipe 14 for removing the air in the stirring tank 1 a is further connected to the stirrer 1. Moreover, the solenoid valve 15 used as an opening-and-closing mechanism is provided in all the piping 11-the piping 14.

  Here, the upper part on the paper surface of the stirrer 1 shown in FIG. 5 will be described as the upper part and the lower part as the lower part.

  The pipe 11 is a pipe for guiding the potable water stored in the water storage tank into the stirring tank 1a, and is provided in the lower part of the stirring tank 1a.

  The pipe 12 is a pipe for discharging the water mixed in the stirring tank 1a, and is provided on the upper portion of the stirring tank 1a. As a result, when water is injected from the pipe 11 into the stirring tank 1a, air is released from the pipe 12 provided in the upper part of the stirring tank 1a, so that smooth air can be removed.

  The pipe 14 is a pipe dedicated to air removal provided at the upper portion of the stirring tank 1 a, and is opened and closed by the solenoid valve 15 as necessary. That is, the pipe 14 is opened by the solenoid valve 15 when air can not be smoothly removed by the pipe 12 and used for air removal. Therefore, in the case of a configuration in which the air is smoothly removed from the pipe 12, it is not necessary to provide the pipe 14 intentionally.

  The pipe 13 is a pipe mainly for discharging gas, and is provided at a position adjacent to a vortex (gas phase) formed in the stirring tank 1 a when the potable water and the hydrogen gas are stirred. The size and shape of the vortices formed in the stirring tank 1a are the internal shape and size of the stirring tank 1a, the shape of the blades of the stirring blade 1b, the number of rotations of the stirring blade 1b, the volume ratio of drinking water and hydrogen gas, The position where the pipe 13 is provided is arbitrary because it is determined by the pressure relationship of

  In addition, although the piping 13 mainly discharges | emits gas, it is inevitable that a part of stirred drinking water mixes in, and it does not become a problem in particular.

  The solenoid valve 15 disposed on the pipe 11 is opened when the operation is started when introducing water into the stirring tank 1a, but this mechanism is used when the movement of water is performed by the water supply pump 7 or the like. It may be excluded and this may be borne by turning on / off the water supply pump 7.

  The piping 12 and the solenoid valve 15 arranged on the piping 13 are separately arranged in consideration of the case of controlling the distribution of the drinking water and the gas phase in the stirring tank 1a, etc., but when there is no need to do so, It may be disposed on the path after merging, or the opening / closing mechanism itself may not be disposed.

  The piping 12 and the solenoid valve 15 are provided on the piping 13. Another purpose is to prevent the discharge of hydrogen water whose hydrogen gas concentration is not sufficiently increased at the initial stage of mixing start (operation start). It is to stop the discharge temporarily and discharge the hydrogen water after rising to the desired concentration. If the hydrogen gas concentration of the hydrogen water discharged from the stirring tank 1a is sufficient even at the initial stage, the solenoid valve 15 may not be provided on the pipes 12 and 13.

  In FIG. 4 and FIG. 5, the hydrogen gas is introduced at the front stage of the stirrer 1 and mixed with the drinking water and sent to the stirrer 1, but the hydrogen gas flows directly into the stirring tank 1a. In addition, a pipe for hydrogen gas inflow may be newly provided in the stirring tank 1a. For example, the hydrogen gas supply passage 5 may be directly provided in the stirrer 1 as in the hydrogen water generating apparatus 101 shown in FIG. In this case, the position at which the hydrogen gas supply passage 5 is provided is not particularly limited.

(Stirring structure of stirrer 1)
In the stirrer 1 shown in FIG. 5, the stirring motor 6 and the stirring blade 1b are not directly connected by the rotating shaft but are connected by magnet coupling.

  The stirring motor 6 is disposed outside the stirring tank 1a, and the rotation shaft of the stirring motor 6 is connected to the magnet coupling 16a disposed opposite to the side wall of the stirring tank 1a. Moreover, the magnet coupling 16b with which the stirring blade 1b is equipped is arrange | positioned in the position which opposes the magnet coupling 16a via the side wall of the stirring tank 1a. In addition, as shown in FIG. 6, the through hole 1c is formed in the center of the stirring blade 1b, and the rotating shaft 17 mentioned later is inserted. Thereby, as shown in FIG. 5, both ends of the rotating shaft 17 of the stirring blade 1b are rotatably instructed to the inner wall of the stirring tank 1a.

  Thus, when the magnet coupling 16a is rotated by the rotational driving force of the agitating motor 6, the rotational driving force is transmitted to the magnet coupling 16b by the magnetic force, and the agitating blade 1b is rotated about the rotational shaft 17. There is.

  In the magnet couplings 16a and 16b, the number (magnetic force) of magnets provided to each may be determined according to the distance between the stirring motor 6 and the stirring blade 1b and the resistance of water in the stirring tank 1a. It is preferable to arrange in the object in consideration of the balance at the time of rotation of. In FIG. 5, both ends of the rotary shaft 17 of the stirring blade 1b are fixed to the inner wall of the stirring tank 1a, but only the magnet coupling 16b may be fixed. In this case, the outlet of the pipe 13 can be disposed at the center of the gas phase (center of the vortex at the time of stirring). This is because the hydrogen gas is collected around the rotation shaft 17 when the stirring blade 1b rotates in the stirring tank 1a, so the pipe 13 is preferably disposed as close to the rotation shaft 17 as possible.

  In the first to third embodiments, a hydrogen cylinder is described as an example of a hydrogen gas supply source, but in the following embodiments, an electrolytic device is described as an example of a hydrogen gas supply source.

It has 23 The ion exchange membrane 22 is a solid polymer membrane having ion conductivity, and although not shown, a catalyst layer and electrodes (positive and negative electrodes) are joined on both sides, and a voltage is applied to the electrodes to make a negative electrode (cathode). Hydrogen gas is generated on the side, and oxygen gas is generated on the positive electrode (anode) side. Thereby, the electrolytic cell 21 forms the oxygen generating part 21a on the positive electrode side and the hydrogen generating part 21b on the negative electrode side, with the ion exchange membrane 22 as the boundary. In addition, the RO membrane 23 sends out only water molecules from tap water as an electrolytic solution supplied from the water supply source 2 into the electrolytic cell 21. The amount of water required for hydrogen production is extremely small, and when the RO membrane 23 is subjected to water pressure, an electrolytic solution is gradually produced and stored in the electrolytic cell 21.

  The hydrogen gas generated by the electrolyzer 20 is sent to the agitator 1, while the oxygen gas is discharged to the outside of the device. Discharge control of these gases is controlled by opening and closing of the solenoid valves 24 provided on the exhaust side of the oxygen generating unit 21a and the hydrogen generating unit 21b of the electrolytic device 20, respectively.

  The stirrer 1 stirs the tap water supplied from the water supply source 2 and the hydrogen gas supplied from the electrolytic device 20 in the same manner as the hydrogen water generating device 101 of the first embodiment, and the hydrogen gas is dissolved. Discharge tap water (hydrogen water) to the outside. A water discharge pipe from the stirrer 1 is provided in the liquid phase portion of the stirrer 1.

  The size of the stirrer 1 is arbitrarily designed in consideration of the hydrogen water generation rate, the stirring efficiency, and the like. When the stirrer 1 is made smaller, the amount of water is reduced compared to a large stirrer, and the entire stirrer 1 can be stirred at high speed, so that it is possible to stir more efficiently.

  A throttling portion 25 for increasing the internal pressure in the stirrer 1 and a solenoid valve 26 for controlling the intake of the hydrogen water to be discharged are provided in the hydrogen water discharge path of the stirrer 1. However, the solenoid valve 26 may not be provided. The throttling unit 25 is a tube in which the inner diameter of the tube through which the hydrogen water flows is narrowed so as to narrow the flow of the hydrogen water discharged from the stirrer 1. The narrowed portion 25 may be a thin tube such as the thin tube 8 used in the hydrogen water generating apparatus 102 of the second embodiment.

(Hydrogen water production by hydrogen water generator 201)
In order to generate hydrogen water by the hydrogen water generation device 202, the RO membrane 23 allows only water molecules to permeate from the tap water using the pressure of the water supply source 2 such as the water supply source 2, and the pure water is made into the electrolytic cell 21. Store. The pure water or the electrolytic solution may be supplied to the electrolytic device 20 by the user without providing the RO film 23. While the electrolytic solution is in the electrolytic cell 21, by opening the solenoid valve 26, water is allowed to flow to the agitator 1, and a voltage is applied to the electrodes joined to both sides of the ion exchange membrane 22 to obtain pure water It generates oxygen gas and hydrogen gas. The hydrogen gas generated by the electrolytic device 20 is sent to the stirrer 1 and stirred with tap water. Stirring causes the tap water to contain hydrogen gas in an amount exceeding the saturation concentration of hydrogen (about 1.6 ppm). The agitator 1 discharges water containing hydrogen gas of high concentration after stirring (hereinafter, hydrogen water), passes through the throttling portion 25, and is taken as drinking water. The water of the water supply source 2 may be provided with means for removing chlorine such as an activated carbon filter or means for adjusting to drinking water quality.

  Moreover, in the hydrogen water generating apparatus 201, since the electrolytic device 20 is used as the hydrogen supply source instead of the hydrogen cylinder, if the tap water can be kept flowing, the remaining hydrogen gas as in the case of using the hydrogen cylinder It is possible to continue producing hydrogen water without having to worry about the amount.

  Further, by supplying the electrolytic solution to the electrolyzer 20 on the positive electrode side, that is, on the oxygen generation side, the hydrogen generation part 21 b is closed by the ion exchange membrane 22. When pressure is applied to the second water conduit 4), it is possible to prevent backflow to the upstream side of the hydrogen water generation device 201, the electrolytic water supply unit and the like. Water may be supplied to at least the positive electrode side, and for example, drinking water may be supplied to the negative electrode side.

  In the electrolyzer 20, while hydrogen water is being generated, the oxygen generation part 21a is closed by the solenoid valve 24 at the outlet to temporarily store oxygen in the electrolyzer 20, and either the generation of hydrogen water ends or the electrolysis for a predetermined time Open every time you do.

  According to the above configuration, the pressure of the oxygen generating portion 21a can be increased by temporarily storing oxygen generated at the time of electrolysis in the electrolytic device 20, and the gas generated at the time of electrolysis is a solid polymer membrane (ion exchange membrane 22). It is possible to suppress a decrease in electrolytic efficiency due to a slight gap between the electrode and the electrode. In addition, by opening at predetermined time intervals, it is possible to balance the pressure of each chamber of the oxygen generating unit 21a and the hydrogen generating unit 21b, and to maintain high electrolytic efficiency. The time for opening the discharge port by the solenoid valve 24 is set in advance as a time in which the pressure of each chamber of the oxygen generating unit 21a and the hydrogen generating unit 21b is balanced and the electrolytic efficiency can be kept high.

  In addition, by opening the oxygen in the agitator 1 or the water passage (the first water passage 3 and the second water passage 4) when the generation of the hydrogen water is finished, the electrolysis may be mixed unintentionally at the time of the oxygen opening. The liquid may be mixed in the agitator 1 or the water flow path (first water flow path 3, second water flow path 4). Thus, it is not necessary to separately provide a receiver for receiving the electrolyte mixed at the time of oxygen release.

(Summary of hydrogen water generator 202)
FIG. 8 is a schematic configuration diagram of a hydrogen water generating apparatus 202 according to the present embodiment.

  The hydrogen water generating device 202 has almost the same configuration as the hydrogen water generating device 201 of the fourth embodiment, but differs in that a plurality of stirrers 1 are arranged.

  In the hydrogen water generating apparatus 201, as shown in FIG. 8, two stirrers 1 are connected in series on the water passage of the tap water from the water supply source 2, and electrolysis is carried out for each stirrer 1 Hydrogen gas is supplied from the apparatus 20. However, hydrogen gas may be supplied from the first stirrer 1. In such a case, this corresponds to providing another stirrer at the junction of the gas discharge passage 10 and the second water passage 4 in the third embodiment.

(Generation of hydrogen water by hydrogen water generator 202)
The generation of hydrogen water by the hydrogen water generation device 202 is substantially the same as the generation of hydrogen water by the hydrogen water generation device 201 of the fourth embodiment, and differs in that the stirring of water and hydrogen gas is in multiple stages.

  In order to generate hydrogen water by the hydrogen water generation device 202, first, water of tap water which is the water supply source 2 is passed through the stirrer 1 and the electrolytic device 20. The electrolytic device 20 operates simultaneously with the flow of water, and generates an oxygen gas and a hydrogen gas from pure water by applying a voltage to the electrode joined to the ion exchange membrane 22. The hydrogen gas generated by the electrolyzer 20 is sent to the two stirrers 1 and stirred with tap water in the stirrer 1 on the upstream side, and is generated by the stirrer 1 on the upstream side in the stirrer 1 on the downstream side. Stir with hydrogen water. As a result, since water not containing hydrogen is always supplied and mixed in the upstream side agitator 1, the concentration of discharged hydrogen is reduced, but hydrogen is dissolved in the downstream side agitator 1 to some extent Hydrogen is mixed with tap water (hydrogen water) and contained. It is preferable that the rotational speed of the stirring blade of the downstream side stirrer 1 be higher than that of the upstream side. The downstream-side agitator 1 discharges water containing hydrogen gas of high concentration after stirring (hereinafter, hydrogen water) and opens the solenoid valve 26 through the throttling unit 25 to be taken as drinking water. .

(effect)
According to the above configuration, as in the first to third embodiments, hydrogen water containing high concentration of hydrogen in a short time as compared with a method of circulating water to increase hydrogen concentration as in the prior art by the single pass method The effect is that it is possible to generate Furthermore, as in the fourth embodiment, since the electrolytic device 20 is used as the hydrogen supply source instead of the hydrogen cylinder, if tap water can be kept flowing, hydrogen gas may be used as in the case of using the hydrogen cylinder. It becomes possible to continue producing hydrogen water without worrying about the remaining amount.

  Moreover, in the hydrogen water generating apparatus 202, since two stirrers 1 are arranged in series, hydrogen gas further generated in the water supply source 2 on the downstream side with respect to hydrogen water generated in the stirrer 1 on the upstream side. Will blend in with For this reason, since it is stirred so that hydrogen gas may be further dissolved in the next agitator 1 to the tap water in which hydrogen gas is dissolved to a certain extent in the first agitator 1, if two agitators 1 are used It is possible to generate hydrogen water containing hydrogen at a higher concentration than the hydrogen water generation device 201 without mixing with water supplied without hydrogen and being diluted by the stirrer 1 in the latter stage.

  In the present embodiment, an example in which two stirrers 1 are connected in series is shown, but the number of the stirrers 1 arranged in series is not limited to two, and more than two are connected. May be If the number is increased without changing the size of the stirrer 1, it takes time for tap water to pass, so there is a possibility that the time until the hydrogen water can be taken can be long. Therefore, when increasing the number of the stirrers 1 The size of one of the stirrers 1 may be reduced. By providing a plurality of stirrers 1, efficient stirring can be achieved, and therefore the residence time of water in the stirrer 1 will be reduced. That is, the time until the hydrogen water can be taken is shortened. The size of the stirrer 1 may be, for example, about 2 to 3 cm on each side.

Sixth Embodiment
It will be as follows if other embodiment of this invention is described. In addition, about the member which has the same function as the member demonstrated in the said embodiment for convenience of explanation, the same code | symbol is appended and the description is abbreviate | omitted.

FIG. 9 is a schematic block diagram of the hydrogen water generating apparatus 203 according to the present embodiment.

  The hydrogen water generating device 203 has substantially the same configuration as the hydrogen water generating device 202 of the fifth embodiment, but differs in that two stirrers 31 are connected in parallel on a water passage of tap water. In addition, hydrogen gas is supplied from the electrolytic device 20 to each stirrer 31.

  Since the cross-sectional area of the stirring tank which stirs water and hydrogen gas is formed so that it may become small toward the exit direction which discharges the water after stirring, the stirrer 31 raises the pressure in the said stirring tank. Can. As a result, the diaphragm unit 25 provided in the fifth embodiment becomes unnecessary.

  The hydrogen water stirred by the two stirrers 31 is a hydrogen water containing hydrogen at such a high concentration as to exceed the saturation concentration of hydrogen (about 1.6 ppm). The hydrogen water discharged from each stirrer 31 is integrated before the solenoid valve 26 as shown in FIG.

(Generation of hydrogen water by hydrogen water generator 203)
The generation of hydrogen water by the hydrogen water generation device 203 is substantially the same as the generation of hydrogen water by the hydrogen water generation device 202 of the fifth embodiment, and differs in that stirring of water and hydrogen gas is performed in parallel.

  In order to generate hydrogen water by the hydrogen water generation device 203, first, water of the tap water which is the water supply source 2 is passed through the stirrers 31 and 31. At this time, the solenoid valve 26 on the discharge side of the agitators 31 and 31 is in an open state. The electrolytic device 20 operates simultaneously with water flow and applies a voltage to the electrode joined to the ion exchange membrane 22 from the pure water stored in the electrolytic cell 21 by allowing only water molecules from the tap water to permeate through the RO membrane 23 As a result, oxygen gas and hydrogen gas are generated. The hydrogen gas generated by the electrolytic device 20 is sent to the two stirrers 31 and is stirred with tap water in the two stirrers 31. As a result, in each stirrer 31, hydrogen water in which an amount of hydrogen gas exceeding the saturation concentration of hydrogen (about 1.6 ppm) is dissolved in the tap water is discharged, and the respective hydrogen waters are integrated to produce the solenoid valve 26. It becomes intake water and drinking water by releasing it.

(effect)
According to the above configuration, as in the first to third embodiments, hydrogen water containing high concentration of hydrogen in a short time as compared with a method of circulating water to increase hydrogen concentration as in the prior art by the single pass method The effect is that it is possible to generate Furthermore, as in the fourth and fifth embodiments, since the electrolytic device 20 is used as the hydrogen supply source instead of the hydrogen cylinder, if tap water can be kept flowing, hydrogen can be used as in the case of using the hydrogen cylinder. It becomes possible to continue producing hydrogen water without worrying about the remaining amount of gas.

  Further, as in the fifth embodiment, in the hydrogen water generating apparatus 203, two stirrers 31 are arranged in parallel, and hydrogen water in which high concentration hydrogen dissolved and generated by stirring by the respective stirrers 31 is used. Because of integration, if two half-sized agitators 31 of the hydrogen water generating apparatus 201 of the fourth embodiment are used, hydrogen water containing hydrogen at a higher concentration than the hydrogen water generating apparatus 201 is generated. Is possible.

Moreover, since the stirrer 31 is formed such that the cross-sectional area of the stirring tank for stirring water and hydrogen gas becomes smaller toward the outlet for discharging the water after stirring, a large stirring blade is installed Since a relatively small amount of water can be stirred, the hydrogen concentration of hydrogen water can be efficiently increased. Further, by making the outlet cross-sectional area of the stirring tank about the inner diameter of the thin tube 8, the same function as the pressurizing portion (thin tube 8) is provided, and thus there is no need to provide the pressurizing portion (thin tube 8) and the number of parts is reduced. it can.
In the stirrer 31, the pressure in the stirring tank can be further increased slightly by further pushing the water stirred by the internal stirring blade toward the outlet direction of the water in the stirring tank. The hydrogen concentration of hydrogen water can be further increased.
