Description

세탁수의 재활용 장치{RE-USING DEVICE OF LAUNDRY WATER}Recycling device for washing water {RE-USING DEVICE OF LAUNDRY WATER}

본 발명은 세탁수의 재활용장치에 관한 것으로, 상세히는 세탁기를 이용한 세탁시 최종 행굼수를 저수탱크로 수용하여 다음 세탁시의 세탁수로 재활용하기 위한 장치에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to an apparatus for recycling washing water, and more particularly, to an apparatus for receiving a final rinse water in a water storage tank for washing with a washing machine and recycling the same as washing water for the next washing.

종래 세탁기는 사용상의 편리성과 세척효율을 높이는 방향으로 거듭된 발전을 하고 있으나 지나치게 많은 량의 물을 소비하는 문제점이 있었다.The conventional washing machine has been repeatedly developed in the direction of increasing the convenience and washing efficiency in use, but there was a problem of consuming too much water.

즉, 거의 대부분의 세탁기는 외부에서 선택하는 설정 값에 따라 내부의 프로그램이 자동적으로 실행하여 세척에서부터 행굼 및 탈수가 자동적으로 이루어지도록 구성됨으로서 사용상의 편리성이 증대되고 있고,수류의 흐름을 다양하게 하여 세척효율을 높이려는 방향으로 발전하고 있으나 사용된 세척수는 그대로 방출되고 새로운 세척수가 계속적으로 공급하는 방식을 그대로 사용하고,세척수는 그대로 방출되어 버려짐으로서 세척수의 효율성이 떨어지고, 지나치게 많은 용수를 소비하는 문제점이 있었다.That is, almost all washing machines are configured to automatically execute the internal program according to the setting value selected from the outside, so that washing and dehydration are automatically performed from washing, thereby increasing the convenience of use and varying the flow of water. It is developing in the direction of increasing the washing efficiency, but the used washing water is discharged as it is, and the new washing water is supplied continuously, and the washing water is discharged as it is, so the efficiency of washing water is reduced and it consumes too much water. There was a problem.

통상의 경우 사용자의 횟수 설정에 따라 행굼이 반복되고 대부분의 사용자는 행굼횟수를 많이 설정할 수록 청결하게 세탁될 것이라는 생각으로 1회이상 행굼을 설정하여 사용하고 있으며,행굼과정에서 가장 많은 량의 물이 소비되고 있다.In general, the rinse is repeated according to the number of times set by the user, and most users set the rinse more than once because they think that the more the rinse count is set, the more clean the washing will be. It is becoming.

한편,행굼횟수가 많을 수록 많은 물이 소비되고 발생한 배출수는 점점 깨끗해지고 재사용 가능함에도 불구하고 현재까지 행굼수에 대한 재활용 수단이 없어 재활용되지 못하고 하수로서 그대로 버려지고 있는 실정이다.On the other hand, as the number of rinses increases, more water is consumed and the discharged effluent is clean and reusable, but there is no recycling means for rinse water so far it is not recycled and is discarded as sewage.

이러한 이유로 개인적으로는 물의 낭비에 따른 비용이 추가로 발생하고,사회적으로는 대규모의 댐을 건설해서 물소비량을 충족시켜 주어야 하는 데 따른 비용이 지출되며, 댐건설에 따른 환경 파괴문제를 야기하는 등 심각한 사회문제를 초래하게 된다.이와 같은 문제점 때문에 세탁수를 재사용하기 위한 다양한 형태의 재사용장치가 제시되고 있으며, 그 예로서 대한민국 특허공개 95-32849호에 의한 세탁기의 세탁수 재사용장치를 들 수 있다.이것은 본체 일 측면 외부에 설치되는 세탁수저장통과, 마이콤의 제어신호에 따라 배수되는 세탁수를 저장통으로 유입시켜주는 세탁수 유입수단과, 마이콤의 제어신호에 따라 저장통내의 물을 내조로 다시 유출시켜주는 세탁수 유출수단으로 이루어진 것으로 마이콤의 제어에 의해 배수되는 세탁수를 저장통으로 유입시키거나 재공급시키는등 사용이 편리한 장점이 있으나 세탁수유입수단 및 유출수단을 세탁기의 세탁,행굼,탈수기능을 제어하는 마이콤에 연결하여 제어하기 위해서는 기존의 세탁기를 그대로 활용할 수 없고 세탁기를 새로이 구성하여야 함으로 경제적인 부담이 가중되고 활용성이 낮으며, 저장통이 세탁기 측면에 설치됨으로서 세탁기의 설치공간을 많이 차지하는 단점이 있었다.For this reason, personally, additional costs are incurred due to waste of water, and socially, the cost of having to meet the water consumption by constructing a large-scale dam is caused. Due to this problem, various types of reusable devices have been proposed for reusing washing water. For example, the washing water reuse device of a washing machine according to Korean Patent Publication No. 95-32849 can be cited. This is a wash water storage tank installed on one side of the main body, a washing water inflow means for introducing the wash water drained according to the control signal of the microcomputer into the storage tank, and the water in the storage tank is drained back into the tank according to the control signal of the microcomputer. It consists of a means for discharging the wash water, and drains the wash water drained under the control of the microcomputer. It is convenient to use, such as inflow or resupply, but it is impossible to use the existing washing machine to control the washing water inflow and outflow means by connecting to the microcomputer that controls washing, rinsing and dehydration functions of the washing machine. As it has to be newly constructed, the economic burden is increased and the utility is low, and since the storage bin is installed on the side of the washing machine, it takes up a lot of installation space of the washing machine.

본 발명은 일상생활에서 가장 많은 물을 소비하는 것으로 보고되고 있는 세탁용수를 재활용할 수 있는 장치를 제시함에 있어서, 기존의 세탁기를 그대로 활용할 수 있도록 하여 세탁수 재활용장치를 경제적으로 구성할 수 있도록 하고 장치의 활용성을 높이며, 공간을 효과적으로 활용할 수 있도록 할 목적으로 안출된 것이다.이를 위하여 본 발명은 세탁수중 행굼시에 발생하는 배출수를 저수탱크에 일시 저장하여 다음 세척수로 재활용할 수 있는 장치를 새로이 제시한다.The present invention provides a device that can recycle the washing water that is reported to consume the most water in daily life, so that the existing washing machine can be used as it is so as to economically configure the washing water recycling apparatus The present invention is designed to increase the utility of the device and to effectively utilize the space. To this end, the present invention provides a new device for temporarily storing the discharged water generated during rinsing in the wash water in a storage tank and recycling it to the next wash water. present.
