DESCRIPCIÓN  DESCRIPTION
APARATO POTABILIZADOR DE AGUA POR OSMOSIS INVERSA WATER POTABILIZING DEVICE BY REVERSE OSMOSIS
Objeto de la invención Object of the invention
La presente invención se refiere a un aparato potabilizador de agua por osmosis inversa, que presenta unas características orientadas a proporcionarle un carácter autónomo, compacto y transportable, con el fin de permitir su instalación en cualquier ubicación.  The present invention relates to a reverse osmosis water purification apparatus, which has characteristics oriented to provide it with an autonomous, compact and transportable character, in order to allow its installation in any location.
Campo de la invención, Field of the invention,
El aparato de la invención es aplicable en el campo del tratamiento de aguas, especialmente en la potabilización de agua en general y en la desalinización de agua marina.  The apparatus of the invention is applicable in the field of water treatment, especially in the purification of water in general and in the desalination of seawater.
Antecedentes de la invención. Background of the invention.
Actualmente son ampliamente conocidas las plantas potabilizadoras de agua utilizadas para desalar agua marina y que utilizan unas membranas de osmosis inversa a través de las cuales pasa el agua salada impulsada por unas bombas a alta presión realizándose en dichas membranas de osmosis inversa la separación del permeado y del concentrado.  Currently, water purification plants used to desalinate seawater and which use reverse osmosis membranes through which salt water is driven by high-pressure pumps passing in said reverse osmosis membranes are separated from the permeate and are widely known. of the concentrate.
Generalmente estas instalaciones, utilizadas para abastecer poblaciones, tienen unas grandes dimensiones y son instalaciones fijas, por lo que no presentan un carácter transportable que permita su utilización temporal en diferentes ubicaciones.  Generally, these facilities, used to supply populations, have large dimensions and are fixed facilities, so they do not have a transportable character that allows temporary use in different locations.
También son conocidos algunos aparatos desalinizadores de reducidas dimensiones para la aplicación concreta en embarcaciones, en donde tanto el aparato desalinizador como los tanques de agua potable están fijos.  Some small-sized desalination devices are also known for the specific application in vessels, where both the desalination apparatus and the drinking water tanks are fixed.
Estas instalaciones fijas requieren una alimentación eléctrica que es suministrada mediante una red de distribución en el primer caso y mediante un generador eléctrico de la embarcación en el segundo caso.  These fixed installations require an electrical supply that is supplied by a distribution network in the first case and by an electric generator of the boat in the second case.
La dependencia de una alimentación eléctrica bien de la red o bien de un generador no permite que estas instalaciones y aparatos tengan un carácter autónomo y su utilización temporal en zonas devastadas, con inundaciones o en las que se haya producido algún desastre natural ya que generalmente estas zonas se quedan sin suministro eléctrico y sin abastecimiento de combustible. The dependence of a power supply either on the network or on a The generator does not allow these installations and devices to have an autonomous character and their temporary use in devastated areas, with floods or in which there has been a natural disaster since these areas generally run out of electricity and without fuel supply.
Por tanto el problema técnico que se plantea es el desarrollo de un aparato potabilizador de agua por osmosis inversa de un tamaño compacto, autónomo y fácilmente transportable a aquellas zonas que carecen de suministro eléctrico o se han quedado sin dicho suministro por cualquier motivo. Descripción de la invención  Therefore, the technical problem that arises is the development of a reverse osmosis water purification apparatus of a compact, autonomous size and easily transportable to those areas that lack electricity supply or have run out of such supply for any reason.

In order to solve the problem of the power supply and provide the apparatus with a totally autonomous character, said apparatus has an autonomous power supply module comprising a folding and collapsible frame positioned on the support module for the provision of a variable number of photovoltaic panels, in an inoperative transport position, in which they are superimposed on the support module, and an operative position of use in which they are deployed forming an inclined plane of greater amplitude than the module container, to increase the angle of incidence of the sun's rays on the photovoltaic panels and the performance of the power supply module. This device also has an electronic control for the management of photovoltaic panels, impulse pumps and protection, stop and run automatisms, allowing said electronic control to regulate the operating regime of the device to obtain different flows of potable water depending on of the level of solar radiation available by adjusting the maximum performance of the power supply module.
De acuerdo con la invención este aparato dispone de un módulo inferior de soporte para sustentación y transporte del aparato, lo que le proporciona un carácter transportable y permite su ubicación donde sea preciso.  According to the invention, this apparatus has a lower support module for supporting and transporting the apparatus, which gives it a transportable character and allows its location where necessary.
En una realización preferente de la invención este módulo inferior de soporte está constituido por un remolque sobre el que se encuentran fijados el resto de módulos del aparato potabilizador.  In a preferred embodiment of the invention, this lower support module is constituted by a trailer on which the rest of the modules of the purification apparatus are fixed.
