1 is a schematic view for explaining a water supply system in which water and water for sterilization are mixed according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is an exploded perspective view showing a detailed structure of the sterilization water generating module of FIG. 1 .

1, a water supply system including a water supply and a sterilization water according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a water supply pipe 10, an inflow pipe 20, a sterilization water generation module 30, and a supply pipe 40 .

Here, the water supply pipe 10 is installed inside the building so that the water supplied into the building through the meter can be supplied to various faucets, preferably a washing machine, a sink, a washstand, a shower, a bathtub, a toilet, .

The inlet pipe 20 is connected to the water supply pipe 10 so that a part of the water supplied to the water supply pipe 10 can be discharged underwater by the sterilizing water generating module 30 So that a part of the water is introduced.

If the flow rate of the tap water flowing in the water supply pipe 10 and the inflow pipe 20 is not controlled, the sterilization water generating module 30 supplies the water to be generated as sterilized water in a very small amount, The amount of water supplied to the water supply pipe 10 and the inflow pipe needs to be appropriately adjusted according to a desired level since the sterilization effect of a certain level or more can not be obtained even when the water supply amount is excessively large. Therefore, in the present invention, the quantitative valves 11 and 12 are installed in the water supply pipe 10 and the inflow pipe 20, respectively, so that a certain amount of water can be discharged only in one direction.

At this time, it is preferable that the metering valve 11 installed in the water supply pipe 10 is installed to be positioned between the inflow pipe 20 and the supply pipe 40 because part of the water supplied to the indoor is supplied to the inflow pipe 20 So that the other part is mixed with the sterilized water discharged from the supply pipe 40 in an appropriate amount.

The metering valve 11 provided in the water supply pipe 10 allows 70% of the water supplied into the indoor water to flow out and the metering valve 21 provided in the inflow pipe 20 makes 30% % Of the total amount of water.

That is, the water supplied to the various faucets is most ideal for obtaining a sterilization effect when the mixing ratio of the water and the sterilizing water is 7: 3. The water supply pipe 10 and the metering valve 11 , 21) is set at a flow rate ratio of 6: 4 or 5: 5 rather than a ratio of 7: 3, the volume of the sterilizing water generating module 30 must be increased by an increase amount of water supplied to the inflow pipe 20 And the manufacturing cost of the sterilizing water generating module 30 is increased thereby.

A sterilizing water generating module 30 is connected to an end of the inflow pipe 20. The sterilizing water generating module 30 discharges a part of the inflow water from the inflow pipe 20 in the water, An electrode unit 32 and a PCB substrate 33, which serves to make sterilized water generated at the same time and supply the generated sterilized water to the supply pipe 40.

An internal space of a predetermined capacity is formed so that the electrode unit 32 can be installed do. In this case, when the capacity of the inner space of the case 31 is too small, the supply flow rate of the sterilizing water supplied to each of the faucets is small and the use becomes inconvenient. Conversely, when the capacity of the inner space of the case 31 is too large, It is preferable that the case 31 has an internal space capable of appropriately accommodating the flow rate supplied from the inflow pipe 20.

The electrode unit 32 is mounted in the protective cover 32b with the electrode plate 32a having the negative electrode and the positive electrode superimposed thereon and is capable of disassembling the water of the water filled in the case 31 using the principle of underwater discharge Thereby producing a sterilizing water capable of having sterilizing power. That is, a plasma discharge is generated in water using an underwater discharge which makes water in the water plasma state underwater, and various anions (O-, O3-, OH-, HOCl and H2O2) Viruses, bacteria and the like.

At this time, as shown in the enlarged view of FIG. 2, a plurality of electrode plates 32a may be stacked in the protective cover 32b. If a plurality of electrode plates 32a are stacked, it is possible to more effectively induce underwater discharge and thus sterilization water generation .

The PCB substrate 33 is provided so as to be electrically connected to the electrode unit 32 by supplying power to the electrode unit 32 so that water discharged into the inner space of the case 31 can be discharged underwater. At this time, the circuit board 33 has a circuit in which different super-direct current discharge voltages are alternately applied to the electrode plates 32a so that plasma is generated between the electrode plates 32a having the cathodes and the anodes, .

A supply pipe 40 is connected to the outlet 31b of the case 31 of the sterilizing water generating module 30. The supply pipe 40 is connected to water supply pipes And serves to provide a movement path for supplying the sterilizing water generated in the sterilizing water generating module 30. That is, when sterilization water generated in the sterilization water generating module 30 is discharged to the water supply pipe 10 through the supply pipe 40, water supplied to various faucets always contains a certain amount of sterilization water.

FIG. 3 is a schematic view for explaining a water supply system in which water and water for sterilization are mixed according to another embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 4 is an exploded perspective view showing a detailed structure of the sterilization water generating module of FIG. . Here, the same reference numerals are used for the same components as those of the water supply system in which the water supply and sterilization water are mixed according to the embodiment of the present invention.
