The guide pipe 250 may be formed with a guide slit 251 which is inclined to extend from the lower end to the upper end along the side surface.

The guide slit 251 passes through the protruding pins 261 of the elevator 260 to be described later, and serves as a movement path for guiding the protruding pins 261 pressed by the rotation of the rotary outer cylinder 270.

The guide slit 251 may be formed in a pair by symmetrical to the left and right sides of the guide tube 250, and also the upper and lower ends of the guide slit 251, the slit support end protruding horizontally in the opposite direction ( 252 may be formed.

The lifting and lowering tank 260 is a part for changing the storage space of the water while lifting relative to the fixed water bottle 240, both the lifting and horizontal rotation is provided to the inside of the guide pipe 250, such lifting The water bottle 260 may include a protruding pin 261, an inner surface portion 262, an outer surface portion 263, and an upper surface portion 264.

The inner surface portion 262 and the outer surface portion 263 form a double pipe structure, the inner surface portion 262 is located inside the fixed water container 240, the outer surface portion 263 is fixed water container 240 and the guide pipe body Located between the 250, the upper surface portion 264 integrally connects the upper end of the inner surface portion 262 and the upper end of the outer surface portion 263.

The upper surface portion 264 has a cover engaging piece 265 for detachment from the water bottle cover 220 is formed protruding.

The protruding pin 261 is formed to protrude at the lower end of the outer surface portion 263, penetrating the guide slit 251 formed in the guide tube 250, the pin pressing groove of the rotary outer cylinder 270 to be described later ( 271).

The protruding pins 261 may also be formed in pairs on both sides of the lower ends of the outer surface portion 263 so as to correspond to the guide slits 251 and penetrate the pair of guide slits 251, respectively.

The protruding pin 261 is pressurized by the pin pressing groove 271 during horizontal rotation of the rotary outer cylinder 270 to be guided along the guide slit 251 so that the lifting and lowering of the elevator 260 is made.

Here, the elevator 260 is because the lifting operation is made bar leakage of the stored water may occur, in order to prevent such leakage, the lower surface of the inner surface portion 262 of the elevator 260 and the fixed to face this The upper and lower inner surfaces of the water bottle 240 may be provided with a packing member (P) that can maintain the watertight through elastic engagement with each other.

Accordingly, the packing member (P1) of the elevator 260 is selectively engaged with the packing member (P2) of the top or bottom of the fixed bucket 240 during the lifting of the elevator 260, the fixed bucket 240 and the lifting bucket By maintaining the watertight between 260, leakage of the stored water can be efficiently prevented regardless of the lifting operation.

The rotary outer cylinder 270 is horizontally coupled to the base member 230 from the outside of the guide tube 250, for this purpose, a rail piece 272 is formed on the lower surface of the rotary outer cylinder 270, The upper surface of the base member 230 may be formed with a rail groove 233 to which the rail piece 272 is rotatably coupled.

An inner surface of the rotary outer cylinder 270 extends in a vertical direction from the lower end to the upper end of the rotary outer cylinder 270, and a recessed pin pressing groove 271 is formed. A guide slit 251 is formed in the pin pressing groove 271. The protruding pin 261 penetrated is inserted.

Therefore, the pin pressing groove 271 may also be formed in a pair on both sides of the inner surface of the rotary outer cylinder 270 so that a pair of protruding pins 261 penetrating the pair of guide slits 251 may be inserted.

When the rotary outer cylinder 270 is horizontally rotated by the user, the protruding pin 261 is guided along the guide slit 251 by pressing the protruding pin 261 inserted into the pin pressing groove 271 in the rotational direction. By doing so, the lifting operation of the elevator 260 is made.

According to the second embodiment of the above configuration, as illustrated in FIG. 6, the lifting container 260 is lowered and can be carried and stored while being inserted into the rotary outer cylinder 270. The volume of 200 and the water storage space can be reduced by half to make it more convenient to carry and store.

Of course, if you want to produce a small amount of hydrogen water to drink the water after minimizing the water storage space as described above it is also possible to drink the hydrogen water by operating the hydrogen water generator.

On the other hand, when used for drinking a sufficient amount of hydrogen water, as shown in Figure 7, by raising the lifting container 260 relative to the fixed water bottle 240, the volume of the water bottle 200 and the water storage space 2 It can be used by about twice as much.

That is, in use, when the rotary outer cylinder 270 is held and rotated horizontally, the protruding pin 261 inserted into the pin pressing groove 271 of the rotary outer cylinder 270 is pressed in the rotational direction, and the lifting and lowering tube 260 rotates slightly horizontally. The protruding pins 261 are first separated from the lower slit support end 252 of the guide slit 251.

Subsequently, the protruding pin 261 is continuously guided along the inclined portion of the guide slit 251 while being pressed by the pin pressing groove 271 (in this case, the protruding pin 261 is the pin pressing groove 271). Ascending along the same), and thus the elevator 260 is made of the horizontal rotation and the lifting operation at the same time, the protruding pin 261 guided along the guide slit 251 is finally the upper slit support end 252 ) (Where the protruding pin 261 is also located at the top of the pin pressing groove 271), the further operation of the lifting and lowering of the elevator 260 is completed by limiting further rotation.

Then, as illustrated in FIG. 7, the water storage space, which is increased by about twice as much by the ascending elevator 260 and the fixed water tank 240, is newly generated, and thus, the user stores electricity after storing enough water in the storage space. Hydrogen water may be consumed by allowing the hydrogen water to be generated in the decomposition unit 300.
