Description

  The present invention relates to a water purification pot, and more particularly, to a water purification pot with dramatically improved water quality improvement efficiency.

  Water purification pots that take in tap water and improve water quality have been widely put into practical use. In a conventional water purification pot, a water purification pot is known that includes a pot body that contains purified water and a funnel-like container that is stored in the pot body and accumulates tap water (for example, Patent Document 1, Patent). Reference 2). In this known water purification pot, a funnel-shaped container accommodated in the pot body is used, and a water purification bag containing activated carbon in the funnel portion of the container and a purifying agent in the tip of the funnel portion is mounted. The tap water proceeds from the top to the bottom in the funnel-shaped container, is purified while passing through the funnel-shaped part having a small cross-sectional area, and is discharged from the bottom end of the container into the pot body.

  In the known water purification pot described above, since the purification is performed while passing through the funnel portion having a small cross-sectional area from above to below, it is necessary to set the length of the funnel portion long in order to improve water quality. There is a drawback that it takes a long time to complete. Moreover, since the funnel part where the purification action is performed extends to the bottom side of the pot body for storing the purified water, the funnel part is immersed in the purified water and acts on the tap water before purification. There is a disadvantage that the water pressure is low and the time required for purification is further increased.

  An object of the present invention is to provide a water purification pot with improved water quality improvement efficiency and reduced time required for purification.

The water purification pot according to the present invention includes a pot body for storing purified water, and a water purifier body that is detachably attached to the pot body, temporarily stores and purifies the water to be purified, and supplies the purified water to the pot body. And in a water purification pot comprising a cartridge type water purifier that is replaceably mounted in the water purifier body,
The water purifier has a first purification region located in the center and a second purification region provided so as to surround the first purification region, and the tap water flowing into the water purifier body is a water purifier. Temporarily stored in a space above the water purifier of the main body, proceeds from the second purification region toward the upper side from the lower side, flows into the first purification region, and the first purification region from the upper side. Proceeding downward, purified and supplied into the pot body.

  In particular, the feature of the present invention is a cartridge-type water purifier, and the first purification region and the second purification region of this water purifier are a common lid having a gap between the upper surfaces thereof. A flow path is formed between the outer peripheral surface of the cartridge-type water purifier and the inner surface of the water purifier main body, and the flow path is continued between the second purification area and the bottom surface of the water purifier main body. A flow path is formed, whereby a flow in the rising direction is formed in the second purification region, and a flow in the falling direction continuous to the flow is formed in the first purification region, and the contact with the purification material is made effective. The

  The cartridge-type water purifier according to the present invention has a double structure in which two purification regions are formed in the same horizontal plane. The first purification region is located approximately at the center of the pot body, and the second purification region is located so as to surround the first purification region. The tap water to be purified proceeds from the second purification region toward the upper side from the lower side, proceeds through the first purification region in the opposite direction, that is, from the upper side to the lower side, and is purified during this time. Thus, by providing two spatially separated purification regions on the same horizontal plane, the cross-sectional area of the purification region through which tap water passes is set to be approximately equal to the cross-sectional area of the pot body, thereby improving water quality. Efficiency is further improved. In addition, since the effective area of the purification area is expanded, the vertical length of the water purifier is shortened, the volume of the pot body where purified water is stored is expanded, and a large amount of purified water can be stored. It becomes possible. Furthermore, since the space for temporarily storing the inflowing tap water and the space for storing the purified water are separated, atmospheric pressure acts on the water passing through the water purifier, so that the purification time is also shortened.

  In a preferred embodiment of the water purification pot according to the present invention, the water accumulated in the water purifier main body flows into the lower end of the second purification region through the space formed between the water purifier main body and the water purifier. The purification region is advanced from the lower side toward the upper side, flows into the first purification region through a space that connects the second purification region and the first purification region, and the first purification region is moved from the upper side. Proceeding downward, it is purified during that time and discharged to the pot body.

  In the present invention, the structure of the water purifier is a double structure in the horizontal direction, and the water to be purified proceeds in two purification regions in the vertical direction using atmospheric pressure, so that the water quality improvement efficiency is further increased. A purification pot is realized. Furthermore, since the space for storing the purified water and the area for performing the purification process are spatially separated, atmospheric pressure always acts on the water to be purified, so that a smooth purification process is performed.

FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating a state in which each component is disassembled. 3A and 3B are a plan view and a schematic sectional view showing a state in which the water purifier is disposed in the water purifier main body. Furthermore, FIG. 4 is a schematic cross-sectional view showing a path through which water stored in the water purifier body is purified and discharged to the pot body.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the water purification pot according to the present invention includes a pot body 1 that contains purified water (tap water), a water purifier body 2 that is detachably mounted in the pot body 1, and a water purifier body. It has the water purifier 3 arrange | positioned inside so that replacement | exchange is possible, and the lid | cover 4 with which the water purifier main body 2 is mounted | worn.

  The pot body 1 is made of, for example, a transparent synthetic resin material, and stores purified water as well as purified water. A handle 11 is integrally formed on the upper side of the pot body 1 and a water inlet 12 for pouring purified water is formed. Furthermore, the shoulder part 13 which supports a water purifier main body is formed in the inner peripheral part slightly above the center of the vertical direction of the pot main body 1. Therefore, the water purifier main body 2 is detachably mounted in the pot main body 1, and the water purifier main body is positioned and supported by the shoulder portion 13 formed on the inner peripheral side of the pot main body. The position of the shoulder 13 is set above the limit position where the purified water is filled. Therefore, since the position of the water purifier stored in the water purifier main body is located above the limit position of the purified water filled in the pot main body, atmospheric pressure always acts on the water passing through the water purifier, Purification process is performed smoothly.

  A cartridge type water purifier 3 is replaceably mounted on the bottom of the water purifier main body 2 or in the vicinity thereof, and a lid 4 is detachably mounted. A gap (space) serving as the flow path F <b> 1 is formed between the inner wall surface of the water purifier body 2 and the outer peripheral surface of the water purifier 3.

  Further, a gap (space) serving as a flow path F2 continuous with the flow path F1 is also formed between a lower surface of a second purification region 22 described later of the water purifier 3 and a bottom surface of the water purifier main body 2.

  The water to be purified flows into the water purifier main body 2 with the lid 4 removed, is temporarily stored in the space above the water purifier 3, and is gradually purified by passing through the inside of the water purifier 3. The purified water is discharged into the pot body.

  As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the water purifier 3 according to the present invention forms a double structure in the horizontal plane, and the first purification region 21 located at the center and the second purification region provided around the first purification region. Purification region 22. The first purification region 21 and the second purification region 22 are closed by a common lid 25, and a flow path is provided between the lower surface of the lid 25, the first purification region 21, and the second purification region 22. A gap (space) to be F3 is formed.

  The first purification region 21 is loaded with a purification agent mainly composed of an ion-exchangeable ceramic, and the second purification region 22 located in the periphery contains a purification agent mainly composed of activated carbon. Meshes 23a and 23b are respectively attached to the lower side and the upper side of the first purification region 21, and the meshes 24a and 24b are also attached to the lower side and the upper side of the second purification region 22. Therefore, each purification agent accommodated in the purification region is held by the water purifier container and the mesh, and water flows into the purification region through the mesh and flows out of the purification region through the mesh.

  Next, the flow of water will be described with reference to FIG. This flow of water uses Pascal's principle. First, the water flowing into the water purifier body 2 is temporarily stored in a space located above the water purifier 3 of the water purifier body. Then, it flows into the flow path F2 between the bottom face of the water purifier main body and the water purifier through the flow path F1 between the wall portion of the water purifier main body 2 and the water purifier 2, and the second purification of the water purifier. It flows into the region 21, flows from the lower side toward the upper side, and flows out from the upper side of the second purification region. Next, it flows into the first purification region 21 via the flow path F3 that connects the second purification region and the first purification region, and flows from the upper side to the lower side in the first region 21. It flows out from the outlet opening 26 and is supplied into the pot body 1.

  In the present invention, since the water purifier and the purified water accommodated in the pot body are spatially separated, the atmospheric pressure always acts on the water flowing in the water purifier, so the water is in the water purifier. The time required for purification is shortened.

  The purified water stored in the pot body is poured into a cup or the like through a gap or space 30 formed between the pot body 1 and the water purifier body 2 and the water inlet 12.
