Generally, a water purifier performs a basic function of filtering water such as tap water or natural water as an integer of hot water or cold water (hot water). In order to perform such a filtering function, a plurality of filters may be installed therein.

Generally, the water purifier generally includes a stand-type water purifier including a tank such as a water tank, a cold water tank, a hot water tank, etc., and a water purifier that filters raw water from the water through the filter, (Under-sink type water purifier).

Particularly, a water purifier (under sink type) water purifier is composed of a plurality of filters at the lower part of a sink and is connected to a water supply device, and a device essential for use of the filter part, for example, a flow sensor and a pressure reducing valve. Further, the purified water passing through the filter unit is discharged through the faucet installed in the sink.

Since most of the water purifier (under sink type) water purifier except the faucet is installed in the lower part of the sink, there is a restriction on the installation space, and no additional device such as a cold heater is used. Function.

In order to operate such a water purifier, it is necessary to supply power from the outside, and it is inconvenient to use an extension cord in the position of the outlet when installing the water purifier.

Particularly, when the outlet is located at a remote place in the place where the water purifier is installed, it is difficult to install the external power source.

As a self-generating technology to solve these problems, Korean Patent Laid-Open No. 10-2012-0077234 entitled "Self-developed Water Purifier" (prior art 1) and Korean Patent No. 10-0867193 "Water purifier lighting device" Technology 2) is disclosed.

First, the prior art 1 provides a self-powered water purifier that drives a water purifier by using a generator provided therein without supplying an external power source. The water purifier has a filter unit for filtering raw water. A generator for generating electricity using a raw water pressure; A charging unit that receives power generated from the generator and charges the battery; And a water outlet from which the filtered purified water is discharged from the filter unit; The water purifier of the present invention.

In the configuration of the prior art 1, it is described that the generator for generating electricity by using the raw water pressure is installed only on the pipeline, but the specific configuration is not mentioned, so that it is difficult to apply to the water purifier product, It is a technology with many difficulties and problems.

According to the structure of the prior art 2, a drain pipe is formed in the outer circumferential edge of the side pipe so as to be connected to the connection pipe connected to the reservoir, and a drain hole is formed therein so that the drinking water provided through the connection pipe can be discharged. A switching valve which is eccentrically attached to the upper surface of the intake port and selectively opens or closes the exhaust hole according to an angle at which the exhaust valve is rotated, and at least one locking projection that is bent upward to be coupled to the outer periphery of the communication pipe of the intake port, A light emitting part for emitting light in the discharge direction of the drinking water stored in the fixing bracket guide hole and received through the discharge hole; And the drinking water is supplied to the connection pipe by the switching valve of the intake port Side while being rotated by the flow stream by generating a magnetic line of force is composed of a flow sensing and transmitting the electromotive force generated by the electromagnetic induction part emits light.

In the configuration of the prior art 2, it can be understood that the configuration of the impeller, the magnet, and the electromotive force means wound around the magnet and the coil are installed inside the case of the flow rate sensing unit connected to the conduit.

However, if the above-mentioned electromotive force means is installed inside a pipe through which water flows, there is a problem that corrosion occurs in a nose portion made of a metal material. Especially, when it is located inside a water purifier pipe where a person is drunk as drinking water, There is a problem that a heavy metal component is included and adversely affects the human body.

In order to prevent this, it is obvious that even if an epoxy or a waterproof film is applied to the outside of the electromotive force means to apply the waterproof structure, it is not useful to the human body, and thus it is inadequate to be applied to actual products.

Also, wiring for transmitting the electric power generated by the electromotive force means to the PCB circuit portion provided outside the case is inevitable, so that difficulties in manufacturing such as a hermetic structure must be accompanied, There is a problem that A / S is a cause of occurrence of leakage in the airtight structure portion.
