Description

Water treatment device for easy ultraviolet sterilization {WATER TREATMENT DEVICE FOR EASY UV SANITIZING}

The present invention is provided with a UV lamp that irradiates ultraviolet rays into the water treatment pipe while the treated water is moved to a water treatment pipe capable of transmitting ultraviolet rays, thereby preventing a piece of water treatment pipe ruptured by an external shock from entering the treated water, and water treatment of the UV lamp. It is provided on the outside of the tube to facilitate ultraviolet sterilization treatment and maintenance and management, and to a water treatment apparatus that facilitates ultraviolet sterilization treatment capable of improving the capacity of treated water.

Various sterilization devices have been used to remove bacteria present in water, such as seawater, hydroponic facilities, or sewage treatment plants.

Among the water treatment devices capable of sterilization, ultraviolet sterilizers using ultraviolet rays have a quartz tube with high transmittance in the center of the pipe passage through which water to be treated passes, and an ultraviolet lamp is built into the quartz tube to sterilize the treated water flowing inside the pipe. I am using the way.

However, due to vibration and unfamiliarity of installation, the quartz tube breaks when the quartz tube is out of the initial installation position or twists. At this time, an electric short may occur, and water may leak to the outside, causing inconvenience of having to repair it or use a new water treatment device. Occurs.

In particular, in the case of a water treatment device for obtaining drinking water used for drinking or food manufacturing, there is also a problem that a piece of quartz glass may be introduced into the drinking water, causing fatal damage to the human body.

In addition, since the quartz pipe is installed inside the pipe, the flow rate is reduced by blocking the pipe, so that a pipe of a large diameter must be used, and when a pipe of a large diameter is used, the cost and risk of having to put a large number of quartz pipes inside the pipe are generated.

In addition, as such a prior art, “water treatment apparatus using a photocatalyst fixed to a quartz tube (hereinafter, prior art 1)” is described in Utility Model Publication No. 20-0365861.

In the prior art 1, a photocatalyst such as titanium dioxide is made into a slurry state, coated on a quartz tube with a small diameter, and fired at 550°C, and a small diameter quartz tube with a photocatalyst fixed thereon is a large diameter quartz tube without a photocatalyst coating. The present invention relates to a water treatment apparatus for removing pollutants from water by filling a quartz tube module filled in a tube into a reactor and illuminating a UV light source on the top of the quartz tube module.

However, as shown in Figure 5, the UV light source 3 is located on the upper side, and there are a large number of large quartz tubes 5 in which a number of small quartz tubes 7 are built under the UV light source 3, so that the sterilization efficiency may decrease. Is present, and since a plurality of quartz tubes are used as described above, there is a very high possibility that damage due to rupture of the quartz tube may occur.

In addition, as a prior art for sterilizing water treatment by irradiating ultraviolet rays using a polymethyl methacrylate resin or a fluorine-based polymer resin in addition to quartz, Korean Patent Application Publication No. 10-2017-0037777 discloses "a water purifier water sterilizer and a water purifier equipped with the same (hereinafter , Prior art 2)" is described.

In the prior art 2, as shown in FIG. 6, the water supply pipe 200 and the water intake cock 300 are combined in a right-angled shape, and water passes through the water supply pipe 200 and the water intake coke 300. It is installed between the cokes 300 and irradiates ultraviolet rays to sterilize the water supplied to the water intake coke 300 through the water supply pipe 200, and is a material that transmits UV rays well, such as quartz, polymethyl methacrylate resin, and fluorine-based The protective cover 450 is made of a polymer resin or the like so that ultraviolet rays transmitted through the protective cover 450 can be sterilized.

However, since ultraviolet rays are irradiated while flowing from the water supply pipe 200 to the water intake coke 300, there is a concern that the sterilization water treatment may not be sufficiently performed.In particular, the higher the flow rate, the lower the sterilization effect because the ultraviolet rays are not sufficiently received. Has a problem.

Therefore, the existing water treatment configuration is built into the pipe through which the treated water is moved, so that the above-described problems such as low water treatment efficiency by lowering the flow rate and flow rate of the treated water can be solved, and high sterilization water treatment efficiency and sterilization effect can be obtained. There is a need to develop a water treatment device.

Hereinafter, the accompanying drawings will be described in detail so that those skilled in the art can easily implement the water treatment apparatus for which ultraviolet sterilization treatment of the present invention is easy.

1 is a front view showing the configuration of a water treatment device for easy ultraviolet sterilization treatment according to the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a side view showing the configuration of a water treatment device for easy ultraviolet sterilization treatment according to the present invention, and FIGS. 3 and 3A Schematically shows the water treatment unit of the present invention, and Figure 4 schematically shows the inlet and discharge unit of the present invention.

The water treatment apparatus 1 according to the present invention includes an inlet 10 through which treated water requiring sterilization treatment from the outside is introduced, a discharge part 20 for discharging the sterilized treated water to the outside, and the inlet 10 ) And sent to the discharge unit 20 by sterilizing the treated water introduced into the water treatment unit 30.

These inlet units 10, discharge units 20 and water treatment units 30 are built into the frame 1a of the water treatment unit 1, and the water treatment unit 1 is a frame 1a so that it can be moved and used in various ways. ) A separate wheel (1b) is additionally provided at the bottom so that it can be used in various environments.

At this time, the frame 1a of the water treatment device 1 is made of a material that does not transmit sunlight so that external sunlight is not irradiated into the interior, or a separate coating treatment is applied to prevent the entry of sunlight into the interior. It is possible to prevent foreign substances from being trapped in the water treatment pipe 31 described later due to sunlight.

First, as shown in FIG. 1, the inlet portion 10 and the outlet portion 20 have a shape of a water tank capable of accommodating treated water of the same capacity, and are provided at the inner bottom of the water treatment device 1, respectively.

The inlet portion 10 and the outlet portion 20 are connected through a water treatment pipe 31 of the water treatment portion 30 so that the treated water flowing into the inlet portion 10 is discharged to the outside through the discharge portion 20. , The water treatment pipe 31 has an arch shape such as'∩' so that the treated water can receive sufficient ultraviolet sterilization treatment, and both ends are connected to the inlet 10 and the outlet 20, respectively, so that the inlet 10 The treated water flowing in from is moved to the upper side and then moved to the uppermost end of the water treatment device 1, and then moved to the lower side through a'∩'-shaped elbow, etc., and moved to the discharge unit 20.

The water treatment unit 30 allows the treated water introduced from the inlet unit 10 to be moved to the discharge unit 20, and is irradiated with ultraviolet rays during the sterilization treatment of the treated water, and the water treatment pipe 31 and the UV lamp It consists of (32).

First, the water treatment pipe 31 serves as a passage for the treated water that moves from the inlet part 10 to the discharge part 20, and ultraviolet rays irradiated from the UV lamp 32 located outside are transmitted through the water treatment pipe ( UV sterilization treatment should be performed on the treated water moving along 31).

It is most preferable to use a pipe made of a PFA material among fluorine resins as the water treatment pipe 31.

PFA (PerFluoroAlkoxy) material is a high-functional plastic, has the characteristics of non-adhesive, antifouling, transparency, heat resistance, chemical resistance, flame retardancy, weather resistance, etc., does not easily pass water vapor, does not cause mold, and has a long lifespan. , Since it is possible to transmit ultraviolet rays, it is possible to automatically sterilize ultraviolet rays while moving the water treatment pipe 31, and since it has antifouling properties, it is possible to treat treated water containing substances other than water such as seawater in addition to water. .

In addition, the water treatment pipes 31 are composed of a plurality and may be arranged in a parallel structure. It is easy to sterilize a large amount of treated water, and the number or diameter of the water treatment pipes 31 can be adjusted to control the increase or decrease of the treatment water capacity. In addition, since the area to which ultraviolet rays are irradiated can also be increased, the ultraviolet transmission efficiency and sterilization effect can be improved. At this time, according to the water treatment pipe 31 having a plurality of parallel structures, the UV lamp 32 and the reflector 33 are also composed of a plurality so that the water treatment pipe 31 can be irradiated with ultraviolet rays. This will be described in detail below.

On the other hand, the water treatment pipe 31 is made of a straight pipe made of a PFA material, a separate pipe is provided at a portion connected to the inlet portion 10 or the outlet portion 20, and the inlet portion 10 and the uppermost side respectively An elbow of a'∩' shape is provided at a portion connected to the discharge part 20.

At this time, a connection member 30a is provided at the end of the water treatment pipe 31 to facilitate separation.

Threads are formed at both ends of the connection member 30a and the water treatment pipe 31, respectively, and not only facilitate coupling and separation of the connection member 30a and the water treatment pipe 31 through rotation, etc., but also the inlet ( 10) and the discharge unit 20 can be easily combined, and when disposal or replacement is required due to internal contamination of the water treatment pipe 31, it is easy to separate the water treatment pipe 31 from the connecting member 30a. Can be replaced.

In addition, a separate valve (not shown in the drawing) is installed between the inlet 11 and the connection member 30a at each location connected to the water treatment pipe 31.

In general, when maintenance work of the water treatment device 1 is performed in an environment that requires continuous water treatment, such as an aquarium or aquaculture, the operation of the water treatment device 1 is stopped. This may affect the life of aquatic organisms. At the same time, there is a need to perform maintenance work.

Therefore, the water treatment pipe 31 is connected by rotating the connection member 30a after stopping the inflow of the treated water by using the valve connected to the water treatment pipe 31 through the connection member 30a and the valve described above. Separate from the connected inlet (10) and outlet (20) including 30a), and after reconnecting the new water treatment pipe (31) to the connection member (30a), turn the valve to allow the water to be treated as the treated water flows in. have.

The UV lamp 32 is installed outside the water treatment pipe 31 to irradiate ultraviolet rays through the water treatment pipe 31 for sterilization water treatment, and is provided on the left and right sides of the water treatment pipe 31, respectively, and the water treatment pipe 31 ) Is provided in the front and rear sides, which is located between the water treatment pipes 31 installed in a parallel structure with respect to the front, that is, by installing a UV lamp 32 in each diagonal direction around the water treatment pipe 31 It is possible to improve the sterilization effect by irradiating ultraviolet rays to the water treatment tube 31 located on the left and right sides and the right side in a diagonal direction with the lamp 32 (see FIG. 3A).

Since the UV lamp 32 is installed outside the water treatment pipe 31, it is easier to maintain and repair than the UV lamp 32 provided inside the conventional pipe, and because it does not affect the flow rate in the pipe, the installation area and cost It has the effect of reducing the burden and improving the water treatment effect. In addition, a cable for supplying power to the UV lamp 32 is also provided outside the water treatment pipe 31 to prevent safety accidents such as a short circuit, thereby providing a water treatment device with high stability.

On the other hand, since the ultraviolet rays irradiated from the UV lamp 32 are irradiated in multiple directions, there is a problem that the ultraviolet sterilization effect is inferior because ultraviolet rays are also irradiated to the side where the water treatment tube 31 is not located.

Accordingly, reflecting plates 33 are additionally provided on the front and rear sides of the UV lamp 32 where the water treatment pipe 31 is not located.

The reflector 33 is provided on the front and rear surfaces with the UV lamp 32 as the center, and among the ultraviolet rays irradiated from the UV lamp 32, the ultraviolet rays that are not directed toward the water treatment pipe 31 are reflected by the reflecting plate 33 and again It is to be irradiated to the side (31) to perform the role of reflection and guide to irradiate the ultraviolet rays that were not irradiated to the water treatment pipe 31 to the water treatment pipe 31, such a reflector 33 is aluminum (Aluminium) having a high ultraviolet reflectance Or it is most preferably made of SUS (Stainless Steels, stainless steel).

This reflector 33 is manufactured to have an inclination bent toward the water treatment tube 31 on both sides of the reflector 33 so that the reflected ultraviolet rays can be directed toward the water treatment tube 31 as shown in FIG. 3A, and the reflector formed by bending A UV lamp 32 is provided in the center of the inner side of 33 (the side where the inner corner is formed when viewed from the plane).

Accordingly, in addition to direct irradiation of ultraviolet rays from the UV lamp 32 through the reflecting plate 33, the ultraviolet rays sterilization effect may be improved because the reflected rays are also designed to face the water treatment tube 31.

The above-described reflector 33 should be provided in a state in which the UV lamp 32 and the reflective plate 33 are adjacent to each other so that the UV lamp 32 and the reflector 33 are adjacent to the UV lamp 32 and reflect ultraviolet rays to face the water treatment pipe 31.

At this time, it is necessary to integrally fix the UV lamp 32 and the reflector 33 so that the reflector 33 does not deviate from the initial installation position adjacent to the UV lamp 32.

Accordingly, coupling members 34 are provided at both ends of the UV lamp 32 and the reflector 33 so that the two components can be fixed in the frame 1a in an integrated state.

This coupling member 34 is coupled to the ends of the UV lamp 32 and the reflector 33, the end of the UV lamp 32 is coupled to the center of the lower surface of the coupling member 34, the end of the reflector 33 The end of the reflective plate 33 is coupled to an edge of the lower surface of the coupling member 34 opposite to the water treatment pipe 31.

Accordingly, the UV lamp 32 and the reflector 33 are integrally fixed and installed through the coupling member 34, and the upper surface of the coupling member 34 is formed with a protrusion protruding upward, and such a projection is a frame 1a The protrusion of the coupling member 34 is internally coupled to the recessed portion of the fixing member 1c provided therein.

The fixing member (1c) provided in the frame (1a) is located near the water treatment pipe (31), the fixing member (1c) is located near the upper and lower ends of the water treatment pipe (31), a UV lamp (32) and a reflector (33) The coupling members 34, which are respectively coupled to the upper and lower ends of, are intercalated into the fixing member 1c to be fixedly coupled.

Therefore, the length between the inner side of the fixing member 1c provided on the upper side and the inner side of the fixing member 1c provided on the lower side of the pair of fixing members 1c is UV fixed to the pair of coupling members 34 Corresponds to the length between the lamp 32 and the reflector 33, and is fitted and fixed between the fixing member 1c, so that a separate configuration such as a bolt is unnecessary, and maintenance work is simplified by reducing the time required for maintenance work. I can.

The above-described coupling member 34 is described mainly about the coupling member 34 coupled to the upper end of the UV lamp 32 and the reflector 33, and the coupling member 34 coupled to the lower side is switched up and down to It is to be interpolated to the fixing member (1c) provided in the.

On the other hand, in addition to the ultraviolet sterilization treatment using the UV lamp 32, when additional water treatment is further required, it is necessary to additionally provide an ultrasonic sterilizer or a photocatalytic filter.

However, when a separate configuration is built into the water treatment pipe 31 like a conventional water treatment apparatus, difficulties such as a reduction in treated water capacity and maintenance, which are conventional problems, cannot be solved.

Therefore, in the present invention, additional water treatment can be performed by additionally providing these components in the inlet portion 10 and the outlet portion 20.

In the present invention, an ultrasonic oscillator 40 and a photocatalyst part 50 may be additionally provided to perform additional water treatment.

First, the ultrasonic oscillator 40 is provided outside the inlet portion 10 and the outlet portion 20, and is attached to the inlet portion 10 and the outlet portion 20 to generate ultrasonic waves. The generated ultrasonic waves enable water treatment using ultrasonic waves to be performed on the treated water built in the inlet 10 and the discharge part 20.

In addition, in the photocatalyst unit 50, a lamp and a photocatalyst plate are integrally formed, and a plurality of each of the inlet unit 10 and the discharging unit 20 are built into the treated water received in the inlet unit 10 and the discharge unit 20. It allows it to be further UV sterilized At this time, the lamp constituting the photocatalyst unit 50 may be a lamp that irradiates ultraviolet rays, but since it is a separate configuration from the above-described UV lamp 32, it is stated that it is described as a lamp to prevent misunderstanding.

Therefore, the water treatment efficiency is further improved by selectively providing a configuration capable of performing additional water treatment on the inlet 10 and the outlet 20, such as the ultrasonic oscillator 40 and the photocatalyst 50 described above. It does not affect the capacity of the treated water to be sterilized by ultraviolet rays through the water treatment part 30, and it is easy to maintain by separating it from the inlet part 10 and the discharge part 20 during maintenance work. It has the effect of doing that.

That is, the water treatment pipe 31 through which the treated water moves has a narrower and more complex structure than the inlet 10 and the discharge 20, so if a separate water treatment configuration is built inside, the flow rate and flow rate are affected. , Maintenance is difficult, but the inlet unit 10 and the discharge unit 20 built in the lower part of the water treatment device 1 are made of a large-capacity tank, so assembly and maintenance are simple.

On the other hand, what has been described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 4 above is only the main matters of the present invention, and as various designs are possible within the technical scope, the present invention is not limited to the configurations of FIGS. 1 to 4. It is self-evident.
