The water treatment section 40 may be provided in the apparatus main body 20 to treat the raw water. The water treatment line 40 is connected to a raw water line LRW connected to a raw water supply source (not shown) such as water, so that raw water of the raw water supply source can be introduced.

The raw water line LRW may be provided with a pressure reducing valve VRP. Accordingly, the raw water flowing into the raw water line LRW can be depressurized to a predetermined required pressure and flow into the water treatment section 40.

The water treatment section 40 may include water filters 41, 42, and 43 for filtering water. Thus, the raw water flowing into the water treatment section 40 can be treated by the water filters 41, 42, and 43. [ The raw water can be filtered by the water filters 41, 42, 43 and become an integer.

The water filters 41, 42 and 43 included in the water treatment section 40 may include a pretreatment filter 41, an reverse osmosis membrane filter 42, and a post-treatment filter 43. However, the water filters 41, 42, and 43 included in the water treatment section 40 are not particularly limited and may be any water filters 41, 42, and 43 that can filter water, , 43).

The inner tank 44b may include a material that is stretched and contracted by the flow of the process water, for example, vinyl or the like.

The external tank 44a can be connected to the domestic water line LLV and the main drain line LD by the pressurizing line LAP. In addition, the raw water line LRW and the main drain line LD can be connected by a drain connection line LDC. The drain connection line LDC may be provided with a second supply valve V2. Further, the inner tank 44b can be connected to the connection line LC connected to the post-treatment filter 43 by the supply line LPV.

As shown in FIG. 2, the treated water filtered in the water filters 41, 42 and 43 can be introduced into the inner tank 44b through the supply line LPV and stored therein. The raw water or domestic water present in the external tank 44a may flow into the main drain line LD through the pressurizing line LAP and be drained to the outside.

3, the second supply valve V2 is opened and the main drain valve VD is opened to connect the drain connection line LDC and the main drain line LD And the pressurizing line LAP to the outer tank 44a. The domestic water can be supplied to the external tank 44a through the domestic water line (LLV) and the pressurizing line (LAP).

3, the treated water stored in the inner tank 44b can be discharged to the outside through the supply line LPV, the discharge line LWD and the water discharge port 200, and can be supplied to the user.

This configuration makes it possible to easily supply the treated water treated in the water treatment section 40 to the water discharge port 200 provided in the moving section 30 at the upper part of the apparatus body 20 without the need for a pressurizing means such as a pump .

The water treatment section 40 may include a sterilizing water generating unit 45. The sterilizing water producing unit 45 may generate sterilizing water for sterilizing the water outlet 200. [ Then, the generated sterilizing water can be supplied to the water outlet 200.

However, the constitution for generating the sterilizing water in the sterilizing water producing unit 45 is not particularly limited, and any well-known constitution such as generating the sterilizing water by dissolving the sterilizing agent in the raw water or the treated water is possible.

The sterilizing water producing unit 45 may be connected to the raw water line LRW by a connecting line LC. The third supply valve V3 may be provided in the connection line LC connecting the sterilizing water producing unit 45 and the raw water line LRW.

Thus, when the third supply valve V3 is opened, the raw water can be supplied to the sterilizing water producing unit 45 as shown in Fig. 4, and the sterilizing water can be generated.

The sterilizing water producing unit 45 may be connected to the discharge line LWD by the sterilizing water line LST. When the third supply valve V3 and the discharge valve VWD are opened with the first supply valve V1 closed as shown in Fig. 4, the sterilization water generated in the sterilization water producing unit 45 is sterilized May be supplied to the water outlet 200 through the water line LST and the discharge line LWD and may be discharged through the water outlet 200.
