Therefore, it is preferable that the adapter ring 22 has a different thickness and height.

When the user finally uses the water receptacle, the head 50 rotates the head 50 slightly in a predetermined direction to discharge the tap water through the injection port 52 including the central jet port 54, 54). ≪ / RTI >

The central injection hole 54 has a slightly protruding shape, and a terahertz ceramic having a plurality of perforations or a honeycomb structure in chip form is detachably attached to the central injection hole 54.

The terahertz ceramics is made by mixing a terahertz wave-emitting mineral powder and at least one mineral powder selected from rare earth mineral, ilite, germanium mineral, and elvan.

The terahertz wave emitting mineral powder is prepared by first making rare earth minerals at 900 to 950 ° C for 12 to 15 hours, then at 1000 to 1200 ° C for 15 to 20 hours, then at 1,300 to 1,500 ° C for 25 to 30 hours Followed by firing three times, followed by pulverization.

The terahertz wave-emitting mineral powder, the rare earth mineral, the ilite, the germanium mineral, and the quartz stone, which have been subjected to the third calcination treatment, are mixed with the mineral powder to prepare an injection molding composition, followed by pulverization, drying, . At this time, the shape to be formed is formed into a plurality of perforations or honeycomb structures in a chip shape.

Terahertz wave radiant minerals literally emit terahertz waves from minerals, and there is a difference in the radioactivity of terahertz wave for each mineral.

Accordingly, the present invention is characterized by using rare earth minerals having excellent radioactivity of terahertz among various minerals. Here, rare earths (rare earths) are lanthanide elements (element numbers 57 to 71) 15 elements, Scandium (Sc) of 21, and Y (yttrium) (39), which are chemically very stable and resistant to dry air and have good heat conduction characteristics. Electrical, magnetic and luminescent properties. In recent years, it is known that rare earths are commonly used to produce products such as three-wavelength light bulbs, LCD polishes, home electric motor magnets, optical lenses, and electric vehicle battery alloys. have.

In order to increase terahertz radioactivity in minerals containing such rare earths, a mineral containing rare earths is subjected to a calcination treatment in order to increase the radioactivity of the rare earths. , And exhibits a radioactivity of approximately 2,000 to 2,400 ION / cc. In the present invention, the rare earth mineral thus calcined is referred to as 'Terahertz radiative mineral', and as a material of the composition for hot water- .

In this case, the terahertz radiative mineral is contained in an amount of 0.1 to 15% by weight based on the total weight of the terahertz ceramics composition. When the terahertz radial mineral content is less than 0.1% by weight, the terahertz radiation activity is too low. However, if it is more than 15% by weight, the body temperature of the human body may be excessively increased due to excessive content, which may be harmful.

The preparation of the terahertz wave-emitting mineral powder is described in detail. The rare-earth mineral is calcined and pulverized to produce a terahertz wave-emitting mineral powder. The rare-earth mineral has its own terahertz wave activity, It is preferable to perform the calcination treatment of the rare earth mineral.

Therefore, it is preferable that the rare earth mineral is subjected to a calcination treatment, preferably, the calcination treatment is divided into three stages. This is because it is difficult to obtain the desired effect of the present invention when the calcination treatment is performed at a temperature of 1500 ° C or less for a short time (about 16 hours or less) at a time, and thus the efficacy of the terahertz wave of the rare earth mineral itself is lost, ) Is exposed to heat for a long period of time, the efficiency of releasing the terahertz wave of the rare earth mineral itself is lost, which may also make it difficult to obtain the desired effect of the present invention. In the first case, when the calcination is performed at 900 ~ 950 ℃, the terahertz radioactivity is about 1,000 ~ 1,400 ION / cc, and if it is calcined at 1000 ~ 1200 ℃, the terahertz radioactivity is 1,500 ~ 1,800 ION / cc. A terahertz radiative mineral exhibiting excellent terahertz radioactivity of about 2,000 to 2,400 ION / cc as shown by about 2,000 to 2,400 ION / cc when calcined at 1400 to 1500 ° C can be used as an active ingredient of the following composition.
