Description

A filter case extending filter life through water flow control by internal bulkhead}

The present invention relates to a filter case in which the structure is improved by forming a partition wall inside the case in order to maintain a constant dissolution rate of the vitamin powder filter and the aroma gel filter so that the dissolution time can be maintained long,

More specifically, by erecting a plurality of partition walls with water flow passages formed inside the case to form a plurality of dissolution chambers, and by filling the vitamin powder filter or aroma gel filter in the dissolution chamber, the plurality of dissolution chambers are connected to each other Along the water flow passage, vitamins or aromas in the dissolution chamber are sequentially dissolved in water and diluted and eluted, thereby extending the filter life through the water flow control by the internal partition wall that can maximize the efficiency of the filter inner space. It is related to the filter case.

A general shower is a device that supplies water supplied from a faucet as a stream of water through a minute hole in the showerhead.

Chlorine is used in tap water to sterilize pathogens or pollutants, and the supplied tap water contains about 0.2 to 0.5 ppm of chlorine. Chlorine is used for hygiene purposes such as sterilization, but residual chlorine in tap water is also pointed out as the cause of atopic dermatitis. In addition, there is a problem in that pollutants such as rust components are supplied from old water pipes.

In the case of 'Filter for Removal of Residual Chlorine Using Vitamins' of Registered Utility Model No. 20-0296116, vitamin liquid or powder is contained in a porous ceramic container, and it is designed to elute little by little into tap water by osmotic pressure to remove residual chlorine. , there is a disadvantage that it is difficult to commercialize the porous ceramic due to the pore control and economic efficiency.

Patent Registration No. 10-1627232, 'Method for manufacturing carbon block filter containing vitamin C balls' and 'Vitamin solids for filter inserted in shower and manufacturing method' of Korean Patent Publication No. 10-2002-0022289, are In order to solve the problem of dissolving too quickly, it was attempted to control the solubility by manufacturing it as a solid or by incorporating the vitamin in the form of a ball into the carbon block filter, but there is a limit to removing residual chlorine in tap water with a high flow rate due to the slow dissolution rate.

In addition, the 'gel composition for a shower filter having viscosity restoration properties, a method for manufacturing a shower gel filter and a shower filter' of Patent Registration No. 10-1069579 is gelled with a size component such as dextrin to control the dissolution rate of vitamin powder. Although there is an advantage that it can be manufactured by adding a functional material, the disadvantage is that it is less economical in the manufacturing process than using vitamin C powder alone to remove residual chlorine in tap water.

Vitamin C, calcium sulfite, and activated carbon are mainly used for the purpose of removing residual chlorine from tap water. Each has its pros and cons, but in the case of vitamin C, if it is supplied unscented, a powder filter should be used.

There is a method of using an additive such as cellulose to slow the dissolution rate, but an additive mixing process must be added, and problems such as clogging of holes by the additive may occur.
