Was the main purpose.

In addition, if the product is not used for a long period of time such as winter vacation and summer vacation, if the product is not used for a long time, such as school, etc., filter contamination and bacterial growth will occur if the product is not used for an extended period of time, increased electricity bills, and leakage due to freezing. It may cause an accident or product failure.

In addition, in order to supply a large amount of purified water, a storage tank for cooling and heating by storing more than a certain amount of cold water and hot water is becoming the mainstream.

Such a storage type product has a structure to supply drinking water that has been stagnant for a long time from a storage tank, and thus is exposed to many problems such as deterioration of the freshness of drinking water, bacterial growth, and generation of foreign substances.

In recent years, mainly small household products that use a small amount of drinking water, direct water supply and sales of direct water type products are being made, but in places where a large amount of cold water and hot water are used at certain times, such as schools, the performance limit of hot and cold water supply is limited. I have.

In addition, water purifiers used in multi-use facilities such as schools are made of stainless steel drinking basin-type products, so a number of water intake ports are attached and used so that several people can drink water at once, but functional water is generated together like alkaline water ionizers. Cannot be found.

After moving the drinking base body 100 applied to the drinking water device 10 of the present invention to each location in the building, the overflow drain of cooling and heating water, and the automatic drainage drain pipe generated during the test operation and automatic drainage of water passing through the sewage pipe A step (S100) of connecting to is performed.

A step (S110) of connecting a supply pipe to supply tap water having a water pressure of 2kg/cm2 or more is performed.

The power supply step (S120) of supplying power to the drinking base body 100 is performed.

A step (S130) of turning on each power switch in the order of the earth leakage circuit breaker, the cooler 210, and the heater 220 is performed.

A first leak diagnosis and action step (S140) is performed in which the tap water supply valve, that is, the pipe line at the front end of the automatic operation start valve, is leaked, and when a leak occurs, the tap water supply valve, that is, the automatic operation start valve, is closed to block water leakage. .

An automatic operation execution step (S150) in which automatic operation is performed for a set time by pressing the automatic operation start button is performed.

With the start of the automatic operation, all valves are opened to perform a step (S160) of draining through the water intake cock 110 for a predetermined time.

At this time, in the process of draining, drainage is performed through the water intake cock 110, and the UV lamp is turned on so that sterilization and cleaning of the pipe and the water intake port can be smoothly performed during the draining process, and the lamp life is repeated by the operation of the UV lamp. In order to prevent shortening, the step (S170) of controlling the UV lamp to be turned off after maintaining the lighting for a certain period of time even after the water intake is terminated may be performed, and cooling and heating water are supplied from the water passing test operation step.

On the other hand, after the water passing test operation is finished, all valves are closed, and then a second leak diagnosis and action step (S180) of diagnosing and taking measures is performed to proceed to the next step.

It is preferable to configure the cooler and heating heater to continue operation while checking for leakage, and to stop the supply of cooling and heating water.

When it is recognized that there is no leakage of water in the pipe after the tap water supply valve, that is, the automatic operation start valve, the cooling and heating water supply sol valve is opened and the cooling and heating water is supplied and filled until the water tank is at full water level.

Regardless of the water level of the cooling water tank, when the power is turned on, the chiller can be controlled to start operation as soon as the water flow test operation is completed, and the heating heater of the heater operates only when the water level of the heating water tank is above the low water level.

When it is confirmed that there is no leakage in the water supply test operation and the secondary leakage diagnosis and action stage, the water tank of the cooler and heater is filled with cooling and heating water, and it is converted to a standby state in which drinking water is controlled through the water intake cock 110 of the drinking water device. It includes step S190.

The cooling water in the cooling water tank is filled with the heating water in the heating water tank, and the switching operation of the drinking water outlet button is made from the point when the water is filled above the lower sensing part of the heating water or at the full water level.

The cold water and hot water can be used only after a certain period of time has elapsed after the water supply test run and the secondary leakage diagnosis and action steps are completed, and the automatic drainage period is for drinking water through the outlet. Automatic drainage is made when a certain time elapses from the time of water discharge.

In addition, when the supply pressure of tap water is significantly lowered while the drinking water device is in use, or when water is supplied again to normal, it can be configured to be converted to the standby state immediately or initialized through reset to switch back to the automatic operation start stage. .

By providing the present invention configured as described above, it is possible to selectively provide drinking water and hydrogen water to the user, improve blood flow and remove active oxygen when taking hydrogen water for a long time, and filter water according to the user's volume Autonomous control of the replacement timing of the filter reduces the cost of replacing the filter and at the same time ensures the stability of drinking water.If the product is not used for a long period of time, such as winter or summer vacation, the product is stopped or restarted by remote control. In case of doing so, in an environment where multiple products are used in multiple buildings at the same time, such as a school, there is an effect of reducing work processing costs for shutdown and re-operation.

Meanwhile, the filter replacement cycle may be implemented to have a function of selecting a normal operation or an autonomous operation mode.

Therefore, in the normal operation mode, the replacement cycle of the filter is determined in advance regardless of the user's use environment, and the replacement is performed according to a preset schedule. In the autonomous operation mode, the replacement cycle of the filter is not determined in advance, and the standard replacement cycle is used. It controls the filter replacement cycle to automatically increase or decrease according to the increase or decrease in drinking water consumption.

In addition, when the autonomous driving mode is set, the use information for at least one year (four seasons) or more after use in the normal operation mode, that is, the standard replacement day information based on the drinking water consumption information for more than one year, and when the amount of drinking water use increases over a certain period. It is designed to automatically increase or decrease the filter replacement cycle according to the usage environment by dividing it into cases that have decreased below a certain level.

For example, if the amount of drinking water used increases by 50% or more compared to the planned amount, the filter replacement cycle is set to be shorter than the standard replacement cycle (F1->2 months, F2->2 months, F3->4 months, F4->10 months) ), and if the amount of drinking water use decreases to 50% or less compared to the planned amount, the filter replacement cycle is set by extending the standard replacement cycle (F1->4 months, F2->4 months, F3->8 months, F4->14) Months).

At this time, the standard replacement cycle setting value of the filter can be set to F1 (3 months_90 days), F2 (3 months_90 days), F3 (6 months_180 days), F4 (12 months_360 days). , The name of the filter used according to each symbol can be composed of F1 (precipitated/curable 1), F2 (suncar/curable 2), F3 (hooker/composite), and F4 (membrane/UV).

And, the selection of the normal driving mode and the autonomous driving mode can be implemented so that it can be controlled remotely.
