　以下、本発明の実施の一形態が図面に基づき説明される。
　図１乃至３は、本実施形態の電解水生成装置１の概略構成を示している。電解水生成装置１は、上述した透析液調製用水の製造の他、飲用の電解水の生成にも広く適用される。 Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
1 to 3 show a schematic configuration of the electrolyzed water generating apparatus 1 of the present embodiment. The electrolyzed water generating apparatus 1 is widely applied to the production of potable electrolyzed water in addition to the production of dialysate preparation water described above.
　図１に示されるように、電解水生成装置１は、本体フレーム２と、電解槽４と、入水管６と、出水管７とを備える。本体フレーム２は、電解槽４、入水管６及び出水管７を支持する。 As shown in FIG. 1, the electrolyzed water generating apparatus 1 includes a main body frame 2, an electrolyzer 4, a water inlet pipe 6, and a water outlet pipe 7. The main body frame 2 supports the electrolytic cell 4, the water inlet pipe 6 and the water outlet pipe 7.
　図３に示されるように、電解槽４は、陽極室４１、陰極室４２及び隔膜４３を有する。電解槽４は、例えば、特開２０１６－１５９２３７号公報に開示されている構成と同等である。すなわち、電解槽４の陽極室４１及び陰極室４２には、給電体がそれぞれ配され、隔膜４３には、例えば、スルホン酸基を有するフッ素系の樹脂材料からなる固体高分子電解質膜が用いられ、上下方向に長い矩形状に形成されている。陽極室４１と陰極室４２とは、隔膜４３によって区分されている。入水管６は、電解槽４に水を供給する。出水管７は、電解槽４で電気分解された水を取り出す。 As shown in FIG. 3, the electrolytic cell 4 has an anode chamber 41, a cathode chamber 42, and a diaphragm 43. The electrolytic cell 4 has the same configuration as that disclosed in, for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2016-159237. That is, the anode chamber 41 and the cathode chamber 42 of the electrolytic cell 4 are respectively provided with power feeders, and for the diaphragm 43, for example, a solid polymer electrolyte membrane made of a fluorine-based resin material having a sulfonic acid group is used. The rectangular shape is long in the vertical direction. The anode chamber 41 and the cathode chamber 42 are separated by a diaphragm 43. The water intake pipe 6 supplies water to the electrolytic cell 4. The water discharge pipe 7 takes out water electrolyzed in the electrolytic cell 4.
　入水管６は、第１入水管６１と、第１入水管６１よりも外径の大きい第２入水管６２とを含む。このような第２入水管６２は、第１入水管６１よりも耐圧性能を確保しつつ内径すなわち流路断面積を増加させて、大量の水を流すことが可能である。一方、第１入水管６１は、管を構成する部品（例えば、管を分離可能に接続するジョイント６１ｚ及びジョイント６１ｚに接合されるナット６１ｙ等）を小さくでき、電解水生成装置１の小型化に貢献する。 The water intake pipe 6 includes a first water intake pipe 61 and a second water intake pipe 62 having a larger outer diameter than the first water intake pipe 61. Such a second water intake pipe 62 can flow a large amount of water by increasing the inner diameter, that is, the flow path cross-sectional area while ensuring pressure resistance performance than the first water intake pipe 61. On the other hand, the 1st water intake pipe 61 can make small the components (for example, the joint 61z which connects a pipe | tube detachably, the nut 61y joined to the joint 61z, etc.), and can make the electrolyzed water generating apparatus 1 small. To contribute.
　第１入水管６１と、第２入水管６２とは、互いの干渉を防ぐため、電解槽４に対して互いの位置をずらして配置される。本発明では、構成部品の小さい第１入水管６１が第２入水管６２よりも電解槽４の近くに配されている。 The first water inlet pipe 61 and the second water inlet pipe 62 are arranged with their positions shifted with respect to the electrolytic cell 4 in order to prevent mutual interference. In the present invention, the first water intake pipe 61 having small components is arranged closer to the electrolytic cell 4 than the second water intake pipe 62.
　図３中、２点鎖線は、構成部品の大きい第２入水管６２が第１入水管６１よりも電解槽４の近くに配される電解水生成装置１Ｚの輪郭を示している。図３から明らかなように、本電解水生成装置１は、電解水生成装置１Ｚと比較すると、第１入水管６１及び第２入水管６２を電解槽４の近傍に集約させて配置することが可能となる。これにより、容易に電解水生成装置１の小型化を図ることができる。 In FIG. 3, a two-dot chain line indicates an outline of the electrolyzed water generating device 1 </ b> Z in which the second water intake pipe 62 having a large component is disposed closer to the electrolytic cell 4 than the first water intake pipe 61. As is clear from FIG. 3, the present electrolyzed water generating apparatus 1 can be arranged by concentrating the first water inlet pipe 61 and the second water inlet pipe 62 in the vicinity of the electrolytic cell 4 as compared with the electrolyzed water generator 1Z. It becomes possible. Thereby, size reduction of the electrolyzed water generating apparatus 1 can be achieved easily.
　第１入水管６１は、陽極室４１と接続されている。陽極室４１では、電気分解によって酸素が発生し溶け込んだ電解酸素水が生成される。この陽極室４１で生成される電解酸素水は、透析液調製及び飲用に適さないため、通常は廃棄される。このため、第１入水管６１から陽極室４１に流入する水を制限することにより、水の有効利用を図ることができる。本実施形態の第１入水管６１は、第２入水管６２よりも外径が小さく、このような水の有効利用に適してる。 The first water intake pipe 61 is connected to the anode chamber 41. In the anode chamber 41, electrolyzed oxygen water in which oxygen is generated and dissolved by electrolysis is generated. Since the electrolytic oxygen water produced in the anode chamber 41 is not suitable for dialysate preparation and drinking, it is usually discarded. For this reason, the water can be effectively used by limiting the water flowing into the anode chamber 41 from the first water inlet pipe 61. The first water intake pipe 61 of the present embodiment has a smaller outer diameter than the second water intake pipe 62 and is suitable for effective use of such water.
　第２入水管６２は、陰極室４２と接続されている。陰極室４２では、電気分解によって水素が発生し溶け込んだ電解水素水が生成される。この陰極室４２で生成される電解水素水は透析液調製及び飲用に適し、電解水素水を大量に取得できるように電解水生成装置１が構成されているのが望ましい。本実施形態の第２入水管６２は、第１入水管６１よりも外径が大きく、大量の水を陰極室４２に供給するのに適している。 The second water intake pipe 62 is connected to the cathode chamber 42. In the cathode chamber 42, electrolytic hydrogen water is generated by generating and dissolving hydrogen by electrolysis. The electrolyzed hydrogen water generated in the cathode chamber 42 is suitable for dialysate preparation and drinking, and the electrolyzed water generator 1 is preferably configured so that a large amount of electrolyzed hydrogen water can be obtained. The second water inlet pipe 62 of this embodiment has a larger outer diameter than the first water inlet pipe 61 and is suitable for supplying a large amount of water to the cathode chamber 42.
　出水管７は、第１出水管７１と、第１出水管７１よりも外径の大きい第２出水管７２とを含む。このような第２出水管７２は、第１出水管７１よりも耐圧性能を確保しつつ内径すなわち流路断面積を増加させて、大量の水を流すことが可能である。一方、第１出水管７１は、管を構成する部品を小さくでき、電解水生成装置１の小型化に貢献する。 The water discharge pipe 7 includes a first water discharge pipe 71 and a second water discharge pipe 72 having an outer diameter larger than that of the first water discharge pipe 71. Such a second water discharge pipe 72 is capable of flowing a large amount of water by increasing the inner diameter, that is, the flow path cross-sectional area while securing pressure resistance performance than the first water discharge pipe 71. On the other hand, the first outlet pipe 71 can reduce the size of the components that make up the pipe, contributing to the downsizing of the electrolyzed water generating apparatus 1.
　第１出水管７１と、第２出水管７２とは、互いの干渉を防ぐため、電解槽４に対して互いの位置をずらして配置される。本発明では、構成部品の小さい第１出水管７１が第２出水管７２よりも電解槽４の近くに配されている。 The first water discharge pipe 71 and the second water discharge pipe 72 are arranged with their positions shifted with respect to the electrolytic cell 4 in order to prevent mutual interference. In the present invention, the first water discharge pipe 71 having small components is arranged closer to the electrolytic cell 4 than the second water discharge pipe 72.
　図３中、２点鎖線は、構成部品の大きい第２出水管７２が第１出水管７１よりも電解槽４の近くに配される電解水生成装置１Ｚの輪郭を示している。図３から明らかなように、本電解水生成装置１は、電解水生成装置１Ｚと比較すると、第１出水管７１及び第２出水管７２を電解槽４の近傍に集約させて配置することが可能となる。これにより、容易に電解水生成装置１の小型化を図ることができる。 3, a two-dot chain line indicates an outline of the electrolyzed water generating apparatus 1Z in which the second water discharge pipe 72 having a large component is disposed closer to the electrolytic cell 4 than the first water discharge pipe 71. As is clear from FIG. 3, the present electrolyzed water generating device 1 can be arranged by concentrating the first water discharge pipe 71 and the second water discharge pipe 72 in the vicinity of the electrolytic cell 4 as compared with the electrolyzed water generating apparatus 1Z. It becomes possible. Thereby, size reduction of the electrolyzed water generating apparatus 1 can be achieved easily.
　第１出水管７１は、陽極室４１と接続されている。既に述べたように、陽極室４１で生成される電解酸素水は、透析液調製及び飲用に適さないため、陽極室４１に第１出水管７１に流出する水を制限することにより、水の有効利用を図ることができる。本実施形態の第１出水管７１は、第２出水管７２よりも外径が小さく、このような水の有効利用に適してる。 The first water discharge pipe 71 is connected to the anode chamber 41. As already described, the electrolyzed oxygen water produced in the anode chamber 41 is not suitable for dialysate preparation and drinking. Therefore, by limiting the water flowing out to the first outlet pipe 71 in the anode chamber 41, the effective water can be obtained. Can be used. The first outlet pipe 71 of the present embodiment has a smaller outer diameter than the second outlet pipe 72 and is suitable for effective use of such water.
　第２出水管７２は、陰極室４２と接続されている。本実施形態の第２出水管７２は、第１出水管７１よりも外径が大きく、大量の電解水素水を陰極室４２から取り出すのに適している。 The second water discharge pipe 72 is connected to the cathode chamber 42. The second water discharge pipe 72 of this embodiment has a larger outer diameter than the first water discharge pipe 71 and is suitable for taking out a large amount of electrolytic hydrogen water from the cathode chamber 42.
　第１入水管６１は、第１上流部６１ａと、第１下流部６１ｂとを有する。第１上流部６１ａは、本体フレーム２に支持されている。第１下流部６１ｂは、陽極室４１に接続されている。 The first water intake pipe 61 has a first upstream part 61a and a first downstream part 61b.

　第１下流部６１ｂは、隔膜４３に対して直交する方向Ｄ１にのびる管６１ｃを有する。これにより、方向Ｄ１に沿って複数の電解槽４を配置し、それらの陽極室４１を管６１ｃを介して互いに連結できる。 The first downstream portion 61b has a pipe 61c extending in a direction D1 orthogonal to the diaphragm 43. Thereby, the some electrolytic cell 4 can be arrange | positioned along the direction D1, and those anode chambers 41 can be mutually connected via the pipe | tube 61c.
　一方、第２入水管６２は、第２上流部６２ａと、第２下流部６２ｂとを有する。第２上流部６２ａは、本体フレーム２に支持されている。第２下流部６２ｂは、陰極室４２に接続されている。 On the other hand, the second water intake pipe 62 has a second upstream portion 62a and a second downstream portion 62b. The second upstream portion 62 a is supported by the main body frame 2. The second downstream portion 62 b is connected to the cathode chamber 42.
　第２下流部６２ｂは、方向Ｄ１にのびる管６２ｃを有する。これにより、方向Ｄ１に沿って複数の電解槽４を配置し、それらの陰極室４２を管６２ｃを介して互いに連結でき、大量の電解水素水を生成することが可能となる。図３に示されるように、小さい構成部品と接続される管６１ｃは、管６２ｃよりも隔膜４３の面内方向で電解槽４の近くに配され、管６１ｃ及び管６２ｃを電解槽４の近傍に集約させて配置することが可能となり、容易に電解水生成装置１の小型化を図ることができる。 The second downstream part 62b has a pipe 62c extending in the direction D1. Thus, a plurality of electrolytic cells 4 can be arranged along the direction D1, and the cathode chambers 42 can be connected to each other via the tube 62c, so that a large amount of electrolytic hydrogen water can be generated. As shown in FIG. 3, the pipe 61c connected to the small component is arranged near the electrolytic cell 4 in the in-plane direction of the diaphragm 43 rather than the pipe 62c, and the pipe 61c and the pipe 62c are arranged in the vicinity of the electrolytic cell 4. Therefore, the electrolyzed water generating apparatus 1 can be easily downsized.
　第１出水管７１は、第３上流部７１ａと、第３下流部７１ｂとを有する。第３上流部７１ａは、陽極室４１に接続されている。第３下流部７１ｂは、本体フレーム２に支持されている。 The first water discharge pipe 71 has a third upstream portion 71a and a third downstream portion 71b.

　図５、６及び７は、電解装置１０の概略構成を示している。電解装置１０は、複数の電解水生成装置１Ａ、本体フレーム２Ａ及び電源部３を備える。 5, 6, and 7 show a schematic configuration of the electrolysis apparatus 10. The electrolyzer 10 includes a plurality of electrolyzed water generators 1 </ b> A, a main body frame 2 </ b> A, and a power supply unit 3.
　電解水生成装置１Ａは、本体フレーム２と、電解槽４と、入水管６及び出水管７（後述する図８参照）とを備える。本体フレーム２は、本体フレーム２Ａの一部を構成し、電解槽４、入水管６及び出水管７を支持する。 The electrolyzed water generating apparatus 1A includes a main body frame 2, an electrolyzer 4, a water inlet pipe 6 and a water outlet pipe 7 (see FIG. 8 described later). The main body frame 2 constitutes a part of the main body frame 2 </ b> A and supports the electrolytic cell 4, the water inlet pipe 6 and the water outlet pipe 7.
　本実施形態の電解水生成装置１Ａは、複数の電解槽４が設けられている点で上記電解水生成装置１と相違する。電解水生成装置１と同様に、単一の電解槽４が設けられる形態であってもよい。各電解槽４の構成は、図１乃至図３に示される電解槽４と同様である。電解水生成装置１Ａのうち、以下で説明されてない部分については、上述した電解水生成装置１の構成が採用されうる。 The electrolyzed water generating device 1A of the present embodiment is different from the electrolyzed water generating device 1 in that a plurality of electrolytic cells 4 are provided. Similarly to the electrolyzed water generating apparatus 1, a form in which a single electrolyzer 4 is provided may be employed. The configuration of each electrolytic cell 4 is the same as that of the electrolytic cell 4 shown in FIGS. Regarding the portion of the electrolyzed water generating apparatus 1A that is not described below, the configuration of the electrolyzed water generating apparatus 1 described above can be employed.
　本体フレーム２Ａは、鉛直方向にのびる複数の縦材２１と水平方向にのびる複数の横材２２等によって構成され、電源部３、電解水生成装置１Ａ、入水管６及び出水管７等を支持する。縦材２１及び横材２２には、例えば、断面がＬ字状のアングル鋼材が適用される。本体フレーム２Ａは、縦材２１及び横材２２によって矩形状に形成されている。 The main body frame 2A includes a plurality of vertical members 21 extending in the vertical direction and a plurality of horizontal members 22 extending in the horizontal direction, and supports the power supply unit 3, the electrolyzed water generating device 1A, the water inlet pipe 6, the water outlet pipe 7, and the like. . For the vertical member 21 and the horizontal member 22, for example, an angle steel material having an L-shaped cross section is applied. The main body frame 2 </ b> A is formed in a rectangular shape by the vertical members 21 and the horizontal members 22.
　電源部３は、本体フレーム２Ａの上部２３に固定されている。本実施形態では、上部２３には、電源部３のみが設けられ、電解水生成装置１Ａ、入水管６及び出水管７は設けられていない。これにより、主要な電気系統を構成する電源部３と、水管を構成する電解水生成装置１Ａ、入水管６及び出水管７とを容易に隔離することができ、電解水生成装置１Ａ等での水漏れに起因する電源部３のトラブルを抑制できる。電源部３には、電解水生成装置１Ａを含む電解装置１０全体の制御を司る制御回路（図示せず）が設けられていてもよい。 The power supply unit 3 is fixed to the upper part 23 of the main body frame 2A.

　電解水生成装置１Ａは、電源部３の下方の空間で本体フレーム２Ａに固定される。このような電源部３及び電解水生成装置１Ａの配置によって、電解装置１０の設置面積が小さくなり、限られたスペースへの電解装置１０の設置が容易となる。 The electrolyzed water generating device 1A is fixed to the main body frame 2A in a space below the power supply unit 3. Such an arrangement of the power supply unit 3 and the electrolyzed water generating apparatus 1A reduces the installation area of the electrolyzer 10 and facilitates the installation of the electrolyzer 10 in a limited space.
　電源部３は、電気ケーブル（図示せず）を介して電解水生成装置１Ａに電気分解のための電解電流を供給する。本実施形態では、電源部３が電解水生成装置１Ａの上方に位置するため、電解水生成装置１Ａで水漏れ等が生じた場合であっても、電源部３に水がかかりにくく、電気回路への影響が抑制される。 The power supply unit 3 supplies an electrolysis current for electrolysis to the electrolyzed water generating apparatus 1A via an electric cable (not shown). In the present embodiment, since the power source unit 3 is located above the electrolyzed water generating device 1A, even if water leakage or the like occurs in the electrolyzed water generating device 1A, the power source unit 3 is unlikely to be splashed with water and an electric circuit The influence on is suppressed.

Each electrolyzed water generator 1A includes a main body frame 2 and a plurality of electrolyzers 4, a water inlet pipe 6 and a water outlet pipe 7 connected to each electrolyzer 4, a plate-like base 51 that supports each electrolyzer 4; And a handle 52 fixed to the base 51. The base 51 is supported by the cross member 22 in an upright posture. Each electrolytic cell 4 is fixed to the base 51 in a standing posture. The electrolyzers 4 are desirably arranged in a horizontal direction H1 perpendicular to the diaphragm 43 (see FIG. 3). Thereby, many electrolytic cells 4 can be accommodated compactly in one electrolyzed water generating apparatus 1A.
　ベース５１は、横材２２に脱着可能に固定される。横材２２からベース５１を取り外すことにより、各電解水生成装置１Ａのメンテナンスが容易となり、消耗した部品が容易に交換可能とされる。 The base 51 is fixed to the cross member 22 so as to be detachable. By removing the base 51 from the cross member 22, maintenance of each electrolyzed water generating device 1A is facilitated, and worn parts can be easily replaced.
　各電解水生成装置１Ａは、横材２２に案内されて引き出し可能に配されている。横材２２に沿って電解水生成装置１Ａを本体フレーム２Ａの外側に引き出すことにより、電解水生成装置１Ａは容易に本体フレーム２Ａから取り外され、別の電解水生成装置１Ａを本体フレーム２Ａの内側に押し入れることにより、電解水生成装置１Ａが交換される。 Each electrolyzed water generating apparatus 1A is guided by a cross member 22 and arranged so as to be able to be pulled out. The electrolyzed water generating device 1A is easily removed from the main body frame 2A by pulling out the electrolyzed water generating device 1A along the cross member 22 to the outside of the main body frame 2A, and another electrolyzed water generating device 1A is placed inside the main body frame 2A.
