Description

[0001] The present invention relates to a sterilizing water feeding device for infant milk powder,

The present invention relates to a sterilizing water supply device for infant formula, and more particularly, to a sterilizing water supply device for infant formula for sterilizing hot water while supplying hot water at a proper temperature by heating water to suitably feed the infant formula.

If you have difficulty in breastfeeding due to insufficient breastfeeding or lack of feeding time due to your job, you will be fed milk powder to infants.

Such milk powder should be mixed with the amount of water and the amount of milk powder in an appropriate ratio, and the temperature of the hot water obtained by heating the water should be adjusted so as not to be too hot or too cold for infants.

Generally, a water heater is used to boil water mixed with milk powder.

Such a water heater is a device that generates hot energy as an energy source and then uses hot water obtained by heating the water using the generated heat energy.

These water heaters use oil, gas or electricity as an energy source for heating water.

Among these, a water heater using electricity is excellent in safety without noise, and an electric heating element for heating water is installed in the tank.

A representative example of such a water heater is disclosed in Patent Document 1 (hereinafter referred to as " Prior Art ") and will be described with reference to Fig.

1, a conventional hot water heater is a direct heating type in which a heater 20 is provided at a lower portion of a storage tank 10, and a water supply pipe 11 and a hot water supply pipe 20 are provided at a lower side and an upper side of the storage tank 10, And the tube 12 are connected to each other.

The water 30 stored in the storage tank 10 by the water supply pipe 11 is directly heated by the heater 20 and supplied to the user through the hot water supply pipe 12. At this time, the water 30 of the storage tank 10 is entirely heated by the convection to achieve a uniform temperature.

In addition, since the temperature of the water 30 is increased and expanded in the prior art water heater, the pressure inside the storage tank 10 increases and the pressure in the storage tank 10 Is provided with an expansion pipe (13) or a safety valve, through which the steam is discharged to maintain the pressure at an appropriate level.

However, the water heater of the prior art is constituted only to boil water, and in order to feed the milk powder, there is a problem that it is difficult to accurately adjust the temperature of hot water by further mixing cold water with boiled hot water.

In particular, in order to check the temperature of the hot water, it is often checked by dropping it on the back of the hand.

Furthermore, when the user confirms that the hot water is dropped on the back of the hand, it is difficult to accurately adjust the temperature of 38 ° C ± 2, which is the optimum temperature for drinking the infant formula.

Also, the sanitizing function of the conventional water heater has not been disclosed.

In addition, the conventional water heater is a low-temperature type in which water stored in the storage tank 10 is heated, and then hot water is supplied to the user. Thus, it takes a long time to heat the stored water, In order to maintain a certain temperature, convection heat transfer time is required, so that there is a problem that rapid hot water supply such as instantaneous cooling is impossible.

Therefore, it is required to develop a sterilization water supply device for infant formula for sterilizing hot water at the same time as adjusting the temperature of hot water suitable for feeding milk powder.
