Description

System For Purifiering The Ion Water}

The present invention relates to a water purifier, and in particular, by supplying tap water from the water supply means is purified in a multi-stage in the filtering means to store the purified water in the reservoir tank to acidic water used as alkaline water and beauty water used as drinking water in the electrolytic cell means Ionization with water, and the alkaline water is converted to cold water and hot water to be used to effectively utilize acidic and alkaline water as well as the ion water purification system to perform the water purification perfectly.

As industrialization rapidly progresses, people's lives become more convenient and rich, while environmental pollution is getting worse day by day, due to global warming phenomenon, various forms of extreme weather occur in various countries around the world, resulting in property damage and casualties Giving. In particular, water, the source of life, is becoming increasingly contaminated due to the unauthorized discharge of waste and wastewater, and most households boil water because more and more chemicals are administered to purify the contaminated water. .

In general, a water purifier filters and purifies oxides, heavy metals, dust, and debris contained in water using a filter including activated carbon, an ion membrane, and the like. Various water purifiers are used.

In the early days, the water purifier was used to supply purified water through a supply valve by stacking activated carbon in a purified water container and pouring water into the purified water container for natural purification, but this method does not frequently clean the inside of the purified water container. Stacked inside the activated carbon or purified water tank has a problem that the purified water is decayed.

In recent years, the reverse osmosis type water purifier has been used to improve the water so that the tap water is purified by moving through a plurality of filter members such as a plurality of pretreatment filters, a pretreatment activated carbon filter, a reverse osmosis membrane filter, and a post treatment activated carbon filter.

In recent years, an ion water purifier has been proposed in which the water filtered by a water purifier is electrolyzed again using an electrolytic cell to use alkaline water as drinking water and acidic water as beauty water.

However, among the various types of water purifiers described above, the reverse osmosis type water purifier has a problem that the purified water is only acidic, so that the purified water is slightly acidic and has a bitter taste of water so it is not suitable for drinking. .

In addition, in the case of the conventional water purifier, the water purified in the water purifier is ionized in the electrolytic cell to be alkaline and used as drinking water, and the acidic water is used as the beauty water, but the purified water is not sufficiently purified. However, there is a disadvantage that can not be provided to consumers by converting drinking water into neutral water, hot water and cold water.

The present invention has been made in view of this point, by supplying the tap water from the water supply means to be purified in multiple stages in the filtering means to store the purified water in the reservoir tank used as alkaline water and beauty water used as drinking water in the electrolytic cell means Ionized with acidic water, and the alkaline water is to be converted to cold and hot water to be used to effectively utilize acidic and alkaline water as well as to purify the water perfectly.
