Description

The utility model relates to household appliances and can be used to purify tap drinking water or water from natural sources.

Despite numerous technical proposals for the purification of drinking water and improving its quality, this problem remains relevant.

A known method of water purification (US patent 4799945 A, 01.24.1989), including the removal of heat from its upper layers, freezing ice on the surface of the water, removing unfrozen water from the vessel with impurities, thawing the ice and draining the melt water for its consumption.

To implement the known method, an apparatus is used consisting of a tank for filling untreated water, a heat transfer device and a heat exchanger made flat in shape and located above the upper layers of water to remove heat through the air from its surface, an auxiliary device made in the shape of a coil enveloping the outer side surface vessels, providing during their joint work the formation in the upper layers of water of the necessary layer of ice. However, this method is quite complicated to implement, includes several time-consuming stages and requires relatively high energy costs.

A known method of water purification and a device for its implementation (RF patent 2274607 C2, 02.17.2004), in which water is purified from impurities in a closed vessel, heat is removed using a heat exchanger located in the upper part of the vessel, providing a temperature difference of + 1 + (- 1) ° C, and ice is frozen in such a way that its mass is not more than 50 + 70% of the total mass of the source water. Draining water with impurities and draining melt water is carried out in sections of different heights, along different channels and in two stages. However, this method is also difficult to implement, as it includes several time-consuming stages, and although it allows to obtain water of improved quality, however, it requires even greater financial and, subsequently, energy costs for its implementation compared to the first method.

There is a method of improving the quality of drinking water (application for the invention of the Russian Federation 94011389 A1, 04/01/1996), in which the improvement of the quality of drinking water is carried out by controlling the freezing-thawing regime. This method requires crushing the resulting ice, which is very inconvenient for consumers of melt water.

A device for cleaning (desalting) water (application for the invention of the Russian Federation 94023948 A1, 09/27/1996), selected as a prototype device, in which the water is purified from impurities is carried out in a vessel similar to a pan with a lid placed in the freezer. This device is made in the form of two hermetically connected polished vessels having an air or vacuum layer to reduce heat transfer, and to accelerate freezing of water, a series of heat pipes made of highly heat-conducting materials are installed in the upper part of the lid. This device separates water into clean and dirty fractions.

The disadvantages of the device include a rather complex design and limited possibilities for obtaining melt water due to design features, which does not allow in practice to effectively freeze a significant amount of source water.

The objective of the utility model is to create a simple and cheap device for producing tasty and relatively cheap melt-safe drinking water, purified from harmful and toxic impurities. In addition, the melting of ice to obtain the final product - melt water, is carried out without the use of any special heating devices.

The problem is achieved in that in the known device in the form of a vessel for filling the source water, equipped with a removable lid, according to the present technical solution, the lid has an elongated part with a blank bottom, penetrating into the Central region of the vessel.

To increase the mechanical strength, the elongated portion of the lid can be solid.

In order to accelerate the extraction of the lid with the glass from the vessel, the elongated part of the lid can be hollow to achieve the possibility of pouring warm water into the glass.

To ensure the safety of the walls of the glass when expanding the ice in the vessel, it can be made with partially or fully corrugated walls. The lid glass may have a cylindrical or conical shape

For ease of manufacture and use of the device, the glass can be made plug-in with the possibility of its placement in the corresponding hole in the lid.

To reduce the sticking of ice to the part of the glass immersed in water, it can be made of a material with low adhesion.

To reduce the stresses acting on the lid and the glass, when freezing water and expanding ice, the lid and glass can be made of elastic material.

A description of the utility model is illustrated in FIG. 1, where this device is schematically shown for producing relatively cheap, biologically active, tasty drinking melt water. It contains a vessel 1 into which the starting tap water 2 or water from a natural source is poured, and the original cover 3 having an elongated portion 4 in the form of a glass. The cover 3 and the glass 4 can be prefabricated, consisting separately of the cover 3 and the glass 4.

This device operates as follows.

After filling the vessel 1 with water 2 (Fig. 1) and placing its medium with the temperature of effective freezing of water, it will begin to cool, and after a certain time, ice 5 will crystallize on the walls of the vessel (Fig. 2). Upon reaching an ice layer of a certain thickness, the lid 3 is opened and the non-frozen part of the water 6, together with the poisonous, carcinogenic, mutagenic substances contained therein, is poured out of the vessel 1 and disposed of.

If the lid 3 does not open freely, pour a little warm or even cold water into the glass 4. The energy of this water immediately melts a thin layer of ice adjacent to the walls of the glass. Then this water is poured and the lid is opened 3. The frozen pure ice 5 located on the walls of the vessel 1 is thawed, for example, by transferring this vessel to a room with a positive temperature, as a result of which, after thawing the ice in the vessel 1, a relatively cheap, biologically active , delicious drinking melt water.

Purification of water from impurities can be carried out in a vessel by placing it in a freezer or in a room with a temperature of (5 + 18) ° C (this can easily be done in wintertime in the mid-latitudes of the Earth, where subzero temperatures remain for a long time). In this case, the water in the vessel will begin to cool and after a certain time, ice will begin to crystallize on its walls. After reaching the specified thickness of the ice in the vessel, the device is removed from the freezer or cold room and the remaining water, together with the poisonous, carcinogenic, mutagenic substances and gases contained in it, is poured out of the vessel. The pure ice frozen on the walls of the vessel is thawed, for example, by simply transferring the vessel to a room with a plus (but not more than + 20 ° C) temperature, as a result of which, after melting this ice, a relatively cheap, biologically active, tasty drinking melt water is obtained.

Example.

The device, in this case it was made of a standard 5-liter capacity, in which drinking water is sold in stores, with an original-shaped lid, was filled with tap water and placed in a freezer with a water freezing temperature of 18 ° C. After six hours, a layer of ice 1.3–1.5 cm thick formed on the walls of the vessel and the vessel was removed from the freezer. Then a small amount of warm water was poured into the glass of the lid of the vessel for no more than 1 minute. After that, the lid was opened, the glass, accordingly, was removed from the vessel and the non-frozen part of the water, together with the poisonous, carcinogenic and mutagenic substances contained in it, was poured out of the vessel and disposed of. The frozen pure ice on the walls of vessel 1 was thawed for 8 hours by transferring this vessel to a room with a positive temperature, resulting in a little more than a liter of very cheap, cold, biologically active, tasty drinking melt water.

The proposed device allows a fairly cheap and effective purification of the source water from the toxic, carcinogenic and mutagenic substances contained therein, as well as gases by partially freezing it on the walls of the vessel, which is located in relatively low, - (5 + 18) ° C, temperatures, so as in the crystallization of a part of the water in a vessel, an effective displacement of impurities from there occurs. Then the composition consisting of water with various impurities and pure ice is separated by pouring water with impurities from the vessel. The resulting pure ice remaining in the vessel is melted at plus temperature. As a result, after thawing of such ice, a relatively cheap, biologically active, tasty drinking melt water is obtained.

Thus, the proposed device allows you to effectively and inexpensively clean the source water from dissolved in it toxic, carcinogenic, mutagenic substances, as well as gases, which ultimately allows you to get a relatively cheap, biologically active, tasty drinking melt water.
