CONSTITUTION:The title controller in which a cylindrical body 2 is positioned below the discharge opening 1 and rotatably supported by a supporting shaft 3.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a water sound regulator for falling water used in devices that circulate and use liquid, such as hydroponic cultivation devices.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Conventionally, in devices that circulate and use liquid, such as hydroponic cultivation devices, when the circulating water flows down into a reservoir, it falls directly into the reservoir through an open space from a drain outlet. At that time, the falling water collided with the water surface, making the sound of falling water.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention In such a conventional configuration, the sound of falling water hitting the water surface can be heard as noise in a quiet environment, destroying the quiet environment. Furthermore, there is a problem in that the quality of the generated sound varies depending on the falling conditions of the water stream, and the psychological impact also varies greatly depending on the sound quality.

The present invention solves these problems, and aims to provide a water temperature regulator that realizes a comfortable sound environment by muffling the falling sound of circulating water and adjusting the sound quality. be.

Means for Solving the Problem In order to solve this problem, the present invention has a cylindrical body rotatably supported below the liquid discharge port.

By arranging the cylindrical body provided below the liquid spout in a vertical direction, the liquid flowing out from the liquid spout flows directly down to the water surface without almost contacting the inner wall of the cylindrical body.

When it collides with the water surface, it generates water noise.

This water temperature resonates inside the cylinder, changing the sound quality and amplifying the volume. If a high elastic modulus material such as glass is used for the cylinder material, the sound will be converted into a psychologically pleasant sound inside the cylinder.

In addition, when the cylinder is rotated and placed diagonally, the liquid flowing down from the liquid discharge port comes into contact with the inner wall surface of the cylinder, and quietly flows down to the water surface along the inner wall surface. go. the result,
By arranging the cylindrical body diagonally, water noise can be muffled.

Example A water sound regulator according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

As shown in FIGS. 1(a) and 2(b), a cylinder 2 is positioned below a liquid discharge port 1 of a cultivation tank of a hydroponic cultivation apparatus. The cylinder 2 is rotatably supported by a support shaft 3 provided near its upper end.

When the cylindrical body 2 is installed vertically as shown in Figure 1 (a), the middle of Figure 1), the water flowing out from the liquid discharge port 1 does not come into contact with the inner wall surface of the cylindrical body 2, but directly onto the water surface. It flows down and collides with the water surface, producing a falling sound. Furthermore, if the cylinder 2 is installed obliquely as shown in FIG. It flows quietly down to the water surface and does not make any falling sound.

Furthermore, if the cylinder 2 is made of thin glass, when the cylinder 2 is installed vertically and the sound of falling water is generated, the falling sound resonates within the cylinder 2, producing a clear and pleasant sound of water. hear. Therefore, if you want to enjoy the sound of water, use Figure 1 (a).
Install the cylinder 2 vertically as shown in Figure 1 (b), and if you want to eliminate the sound of water, install the cylinder 2 diagonally as shown in Figures 2 (a) and 2 (b). do it.

Note that the wall thickness and material of the cylindrical body 2 are metal and porcelain.

By selecting a hard material such as glass, the resonance state of the sound within the cylinder 2 changes, and the tone of the generated water sound can be selected.

Effects of the Invention As is clear from the above description of the embodiments, according to the present invention, the sound of water generated when water is flowing down in equipment that recycles water, such as a hydroponic cultivation device, can be emphasized and utilized. You can optionally mute the sound.

Furthermore, by selecting the dimensions, wall thickness, and material of the cylinder, it is possible to generate a desired resonance sound.
