Description

정수기용 온수밸브{Water purifier valve}Water purifier valve

본 발명은 정수기용 밸브에 관한 것으로, 보다 상세하게는 정수기에 설치되어 온수의 공급을 제어하는 온수 밸브에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a water purifier valve, and more particularly, to a hot water valve installed in the water purifier to control the supply of hot water.

근래에 들어 온수까지 나오는 정수기의 보급이 증가함에 따라, 미취학 아동과 같이 어린이들이 온수에 화상을 입게 되는 사고의 발생가능성이 증가하였다. 이에, 출원번호 10-2005-0037191호 등과 같아, 안정성을 보강한 정수기용 온수밸브에 관해서는 많은 기술들이 개발된 바 있다.In recent years, as the supply of water purifiers to hot water has increased, the likelihood of accidents in which children burn hot water, such as preschoolers, has increased. Accordingly, as in Patent Application No. 10-2005-0037191 and the like, many technologies have been developed regarding the hot water valve for water purifier with enhanced stability.

한편, 현재 시중에 판매되는 정수기의 온수는 초기 가열시간 약 30분 정도 에 100℃로 가열하여 대기 상태로 들어가며, 대기 시간 동안에 온수 온도는 약 70~80℃로 보관된다. 하지만, 저장된 온수를 다 사용한 후에도 지속적으로 온수를 쓰는 경우, 아직 가열중인 온수가 미지근한 상태로 나오게 되며 이로 인해 문제, 예를 들어 커피나 컵라면에 온수를 사용하는 경우 미지근한 물로 인해 해당 음식을 제대로 조리하지 못하게 되는 문제점이 있다. 따라서, 이와 같은 문제점을 방지할 수 있는 정수기용 밸브의 개발이 요구된다.On the other hand, the hot water of the commercially available water purifier is heated to 100 ℃ in the initial heating time of about 30 minutes to enter the standby state, during the standby time the hot water temperature is stored at about 70 ~ 80 ℃. However, if you continue to use hot water even after you have used up the stored hot water, the hot water that is still heating will come out lukewarm, which causes problems, for example, if you use hot water for coffee or cup ramen, the food will be cooked properly due to lukewarm water. There is a problem that can not be. Therefore, development of a water purifier valve that can prevent such a problem is required.

본 발명은 상기한 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 안출된 것으로, 본 발명의 목적은 온수의 온도가 낮을 때에는 자동으로 온수의 공급이 차단되도록 구조가 개선된 정수기용 밸브를 제공하는 것이다.The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, an object of the present invention is to provide a valve for a water purifier having an improved structure so that the supply of hot water is automatically cut off when the temperature of the hot water is low.

본 발명에 따른 정수기용 밸브는 온수저장탱크로부터 유입된 온수가 유동되는 온수통로가 형성되어 있는 하우징과, 상기 온수통로를 흐르는 온수의 유동이 차단되는 차단위치와, 상기 온수가 유동되는 개방위치 사이에서 이동가능하게 배치되는 마개와, 형상기억합금 소재로 이루어지며, 상기 온수의 온도에 따라 변형되면서 상기 마개를 상기 차단위치와 상기 개방위치 사이에서 이동시키는 구동부재를 포함하는 것을 특징으로 한다.The water purifier valve according to the present invention includes a housing in which a hot water passage through which hot water flowed from a hot water storage tank is formed, a cutoff position at which a flow of hot water flowing through the hot water passage is blocked, and an open position at which the hot water flows. The stopper is arranged to be movable in, and made of a shape memory alloy material, characterized in that it comprises a drive member for moving the stopper between the blocking position and the open position while being deformed according to the temperature of the hot water.

본 발명에 따르면 상기 구동부재는 스프링 형상으로 형성되는 것이 바람직하다.According to the present invention, the driving member is preferably formed in a spring shape.

본 발명에 따르면, 상기 마개를 상기 차단위치로 탄성바이어스시키는 보조스프링을 더 포함하는 것이 바람직하다.According to the invention, it is preferable to further include an auxiliary spring for elastically biasing the plug to the blocking position.

본 발명에 따르면 온수의 온도가 일정 온도 이하인 경우에는 자동으로 온수의 공급이 차단된다. 따라서, 사용자가 미지근한 물을 온수로 착각하고 사용하는 일이 방지된다.According to the present invention, the supply of hot water is automatically cut off when the temperature of the hot water is below a predetermined temperature. Therefore, the user can be mistaken for using lukewarm water as hot water.

도 1은 본 발명의 일 실시예에 따른 정수기용 밸브의 개략적인 절개사시도이며, 도 2는 도 1의 화살표(A) 방향으로 바라본 도면이며, 도 3은 도 1의 Ⅲ-Ⅲ선의 단면도이다.1 is a schematic cutaway perspective view of a valve for a water purifier according to an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a view as viewed in the direction of arrow A of FIG. 1, and FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view taken along line III-III of FIG.

도 1 내지 도 3을 참조하면, 본 실시예에 따른 정수기용 밸브(100)는 하우징(10)과, 지지부재(20)와, 마개(30)와, 구동부재(40)와, 보조스프링(50)을 포함한다.1 to 3, the water purifier valve 100 according to the present embodiment includes a housing 10, a support member 20, a stopper 30, a drive member 40, and an auxiliary spring ( 50).

하우징(10)은 온수저장탱크(도면 미도시)와 연결된다. 하우징(10)의 내부에는 온수저장탱크로부터 공급된 온수가 유동되는 온수통로(11)가 형성되어 있다. 또한, 하우징의 내부에는 후술하는 지지부재(20) 및 마개(30)의 설치를 위한 공간부(12)가 마련되어 있다.The housing 10 is connected to a hot water storage tank (not shown). Inside the housing 10, a hot water passage 11 through which hot water supplied from a hot water storage tank flows is formed. In addition, a space 12 for installing the support member 20 and the plug 30 to be described later is provided inside the housing.

지지부재(20)는 후술할 마개(30)를 결합시키기 위한 것으로, 이 지지부재(20)는 하우징의 공간부(12)에 설치되어 고정된다. 지지부재(20)에는 상하 방향으로 길게 형성된 홈부(21)가 마련되어 있으며, 지지부재(20)의 측면에는 한 쌍의 결합돌기(22)가 마련되어 있다.The support member 20 is for coupling the stopper 30 to be described later, the support member 20 is installed and fixed to the space portion 12 of the housing. The support member 20 is provided with a groove portion 21 formed long in the vertical direction, and a pair of engaging projections 22 are provided on the side surface of the support member 20.

마개(30)는 온수의 공급 및 차단을 위한 것이다. 마개(30)는 본체부(31)와, 본체부로부터 상방으로 연장 형성되는 연장부(32)를 가진다. 연장부(32)는 지지부재의 홈부(21)에 삽입된다. 이와 같이 구성된 마개(30)는 차단위치와 개방위치 사이에서 이동된다. 이때, 개방위치는 도 3의 (A)에 도시된 바와 같이 마개(30)가 상방으로 올라가 유출구(111)가 개방되며, 이에 따라 온수가 유동가능한 위치를 의미한다. 그리고, 차단위치란 도 3의 (B)에 도시된 바와 같이 마개가 하방으로 내려와 유출구(111)를 막음으로써 온수의 유동이 차단되는 위치를 의미한다. 또한, 마개(30)에는 후술할 구동부재의 결합을 위한 한 쌍의 결합돌기(33)가 마련되어 있다.The stopper 30 is for supplying and blocking hot water. The stopper 30 has a main body 31 and an extension 32 extending upward from the main body. The extension part 32 is inserted into the groove part 21 of the support member. The stopper 30 thus configured is moved between the blocking position and the open position. At this time, the open position as shown in (A) of FIG. 3, the stopper 30 rises upward to open the outlet 111, thereby means a position where the hot water can flow. And, the blocking position means a position in which the flow of hot water is blocked by closing the plug downward and blocking the outlet 111 as shown in (B) of FIG. In addition, the stopper 30 is provided with a pair of engaging projections 33 for the coupling of the drive member to be described later.

구동부재(40)는 온수의 온도에 따라 온수의 공급이 선택적으로 차단될 수 있도록, 마개(30)를 차단위치와 개방위치 사이에서 이동시키기 위한 것이다. 본 실시예의 경우 구동부재(40)는 온도에 따라 변형되는 형상기억합금 소재로 이루어진다. 또한, 단위 온도당 구동부재(40)의 변형량이 극대화될 수 있도록, 구동부재(40)는 스프링 형상으로 형성된다. 본 실시예의 경우, 구동부재(40)는 한 쌍 구비되며, 도 3에 도시된 바와 같이 각 구동부재(40)의 일단부는 지지부재의 결합돌기(22)에 결합되고, 타단부는 마개의 결합돌기(33)에 결합된다. The drive member 40 is for moving the stopper 30 between the blocking position and the open position so that the supply of hot water can be selectively blocked according to the temperature of the hot water. In the present embodiment, the drive member 40 is made of a shape memory alloy material deformed according to temperature. In addition, the driving member 40 is formed in a spring shape so as to maximize the amount of deformation of the driving member 40 per unit temperature. In this embodiment, the drive member 40 is provided with a pair, one end of each drive member 40 is coupled to the engaging projection 22 of the support member, as shown in Figure 3, the other end is coupled to the stopper It is coupled to the projection (33).

보조스프링(50)은 마개를 차단위치쪽으로 탄성바이어스 시키기 위한 것이다. 도 3에 도시된 바와 같이 마개의 연장부(32)가 보조스프링(50)의 내부로 삽입된다. 보조스프링(50)의 일단부는 지지부재(20)의 단부에 지지되고 타단부는 마개의 본체부(31)에 지지되며, 이에 따라 마개가 차단위치쪽으로 탄성바이어스 된다.The auxiliary spring 50 is for biasing the plug toward the blocking position. As shown in FIG. 3, the extension 32 of the plug is inserted into the auxiliary spring 50. One end of the auxiliary spring 50 is supported by the end of the support member 20 and the other end is supported by the body portion 31 of the stopper, whereby the stopper is elastically biased toward the blocking position.

이와 같이 구성된 정수기용 밸브에 있어서, 마개(30)의 위치는 보조스프링(50)의 탄성력과, 구동부재(40)의 힘(탄성력)에 의해 결정된다. 이때, 보조스프링(50)의 탄성력은 거의 일정한 반면(물론, 보조스프링을 구성하는 금속도 온도에 따라 다소 변형이 되지만, 구동부재에 비하여 그 변형량이 작으므로 무시한다), 구동부재(40)는 온수의 온도에 따라 탄성력의 변화가 크며, 이는 구동부재(40) 자체가 온도에 따라 변형되기 때문이다. 그리고, 이와 같이 온수의 온도에 따라 구동부재의 탄성력이 변화되므로, 마개가 차단위치와 개방위치 사이에서 이동가능하다.In the valve for water purifier configured in this way, the position of the stopper 30 is determined by the elastic force of the auxiliary spring 50 and the force (elastic force) of the drive member 40. At this time, while the elastic force of the auxiliary spring 50 is almost constant (of course, the metal constituting the auxiliary spring is also somewhat deformed depending on the temperature, but because the amount of deformation is smaller than that of the driving member, the driving member 40 is ignored). The change in elastic force is large depending on the temperature of the hot water, since the driving member 40 itself is deformed according to the temperature. In addition, since the elastic force of the drive member is changed in accordance with the temperature of the hot water in this way, the plug is movable between the blocking position and the open position.

이때, 정수기에 저장되는 온수의 온도가 70~80℃ 정도이므로, 70℃ 이하에서는 마개(30)가 차단위치에 배치되고, 70℃ 이상의 온도에서는 마개가 개방위치에 배치되도록 하는 것이 바람직하며, 이는 보조스프링의 탄성력(재질, 감긴횟수 등에 의해결정)과, 구동부재의 탄성력(재질, 감긴 횟수 등)을 적절하게 조정함으로써 가능하다. At this time, since the temperature of the hot water stored in the water purifier is about 70 ~ 80 ℃, the stopper 30 is disposed in the cut off position at 70 ℃ or less, it is preferable that the stopper is arranged in the open position at a temperature of 70 ℃ or more, which is This is possible by appropriately adjusting the elastic force (determined by the material, the number of turns, etc.) of the auxiliary spring and the elastic force (material, the number of times, etc.) of the drive member.

이하, 상술한 바와 같이 구성된 정수기용 밸브의 작동과정에 관하여 설명한다.Hereinafter, the operation of the valve for the water purifier configured as described above will be described.

먼저, 온수저장탱크의 온수가 70℃ 이상으로 충분히 가열되어 저장되어 있는 상태에서는, 도 3의 (A)에 도시된 바와 같이 마개(30)가 개방위치에 배치된다. 따라서, 사용자가 온수버튼을 누르는 경우 온수를 공급받을 수 있다.First, in a state where hot water of the hot water storage tank is sufficiently heated and stored at 70 ° C. or higher, as shown in FIG. 3A, a stopper 30 is disposed in an open position. Therefore, when the user presses the hot water button, hot water may be supplied.

하지만, 온수를 과도하게 사용하여 온수저장탱크에 저장된 온수의 온도가 70℃ 이하로 떨어진 경우에는 구동부재가 변형되고, 이에 따라 도 3의 (B)에 도시된 바와 같이 마개(30)가 차단위치에 배치되어 온수의 유동이 차단된다. 따라서, 사용자가 온수버튼을 누르더라도 온수가 공급되지 않는다. However, when the temperature of the hot water stored in the hot water storage tank drops to 70 ° C. or less by excessively using hot water, the driving member is deformed, and as shown in FIG. 3B, the stopper 30 is blocked. It is arranged in the flow of hot water is blocked. Therefore, hot water is not supplied even if the user presses the hot water button.

한편, 온수 공급이 중단된 이후 일정 시간이 지나, 온수저장탱크의 온수가 충분히 가열되어 온수의 온도가 70℃ 이상으로 유지되면, 도 3의 (A)에 도시된 바와 같이 다시 마개가 개방위치로 배치되며, 이에 따라 온수의 공급이 가능해진다.On the other hand, after a certain time after the hot water supply is stopped, if the hot water in the hot water storage tank is sufficiently heated to maintain the temperature of the hot water at 70 ℃ or more, as shown in (A) of FIG. It is arranged, thereby allowing the supply of hot water.

상술한 바와 같이, 본 실시예에 따르면 온수의 온도에 따라 자동으로 온수의 공급 및 차단이 제어된다. 따라서, 종래와 같이 미지근한 온수를 받게 되는 문제를 해결할 수 있다.As described above, according to the present embodiment, the supply and shutoff of the hot water is automatically controlled according to the temperature of the hot water. Therefore, the problem of receiving lukewarm hot water as in the prior art can be solved.

나아가, 별도의 온도센서 등을 사용하지 않아도 되므로, 장치의 구조가 간단해지고 제작비용도 절감할 수 있다.Furthermore, since it is not necessary to use a separate temperature sensor, the structure of the device can be simplified and the manufacturing cost can be reduced.

이상에서 본 발명의 바람직한 실시예에 대해 도시하고 설명하였으나, 본 발명은 상술한 특정의 바람직한 실시예에 한정되지 아니하며, 청구범위에서 청구하는 본 발명의 요지를 벗어남이 없이 당해 발명이 속하는 기술분야에서 통상의 지식을 가진 자라면 누구든지 다양한 변형 실시가 가능한 것은 물론이고, 그와 같은 변경은 청구범위 기재의 범위 내에 있게 된다.While the present invention has been particularly shown and described with reference to exemplary embodiments thereof, it is clearly understood that the same is by way of illustration and example only and is not to be taken by way of limitation in the embodiment in which said invention is directed. It will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes in form and detail may be made therein without departing from the scope of the appended claims.
