Abstract

PURPOSE:To increase a spray surface area, to enhance purifying efficiency by accelerating the evaporation of a harmful low b.p. substance such as trihalomethane in water and to miniaturize a water purifier by vibrating the vane in a spray nozzle or the orifice of the nozzle by a vibrator. CONSTITUTION:The vibration of a vibrator 1 is transmitted to the vane 4 arranged to the lower part in a spray nozzle 5 having an almost conical shape so as to guide water 8 to the orifice 6 of the nozzle 5 through a vibration transmitting rod 3 and further transmitted to the water 8 flowing in the direction of the orifice 6 to finely divide the sprayed water 7 from the orifice 6. The vibrator 1 is arranged to the top plate part of the spray nozzle 5 and the central part of the vibrator 1 and the central part of the vane 4 are connected by the vibration transmitting rod 3 inserted in the spray nozzle 5. An oscillation circuit 2 has a function oscillating the vibrator 1 and it is necessary to change the frequency of the circuit 2 according to an objective spray diameter. As the objective spray diameter becomes finer, high-frequency is required.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a water purifier for spraying water from a nozzle to vaporize and purify low boiling point substances such as trihalomethane dissolved in water.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In conventional water purifiers, when water is purified by spraying, the spray from the nozzle is directly ejected, so the spray particle size does not become very fine, and particularly in the case of a solid nozzle The particles in the central part of the water become quite large,
There is a drawback that the removal efficiency of low boiling point substances from spray particles is low.

Further, particularly in the case of downsizing, there is a drawback that the removal efficiency becomes remarkable and the required removal rate cannot be removed.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the above-mentioned drawbacks of the prior art, it is an object of the present invention to improve the efficiency of removing dissolved low boiling point substances such as trihalomethane in a water purifier for spray purification with a spray nozzle.

[0005]

The gist of the present invention is to provide a vane 4 or an orifice 6 inside a spray nozzle 5.
Is a water purifier that vibrates the vibrator 1.

[0006]

[Operation] By applying mechanical vibration to the spray water 7 jetted from the spray nozzle 5 through the vane 4, the orifice 6, etc., the particle size of the spray water 7 becomes finer.

[0007]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of the present invention in which a vibrator is provided via a vibration transmission rod 3 to a vane 4 arranged so as to guide water 8 to an orifice 6 in a lower portion of a substantially conical spray nozzle 5. The vibration of No. 1 is transmitted to the water 8 flowing in the direction of the orifice 6, and the spray 7 from the orifice 6 is atomized.

The vibrator 1 is arranged on the top plate of the spray nozzle 5. The center of the vibrator 1 and the center of the vane 4 are connected by a vibration transmission rod 3 inserted in the spray nozzle 5. The oscillator circuit 2 in the figure is for transmitting the oscillator 1, and its frequency needs to be changed according to the target spray diameter. The smaller the target spray diameter, the higher the frequency required. For example, when evaporating a substance such as trihalomethane in tap water, 100 to 50 particles of water are used.
The particle size needs to be around 0 micron, but in this case, a frequency of several kilohertz to 10 kilohertz is sufficient.

FIG. 2 shows a second embodiment of the present invention, in which the orifice 6 at the outlet of the spray nozzle 5 is constituted by the vibrator 1, and the spray water from the orifice 6 is supplied to this orifice 6.
It vibrates directly in order to make it finer. The frequency and the like are determined in the same manner as in the first embodiment.

[0011]

According to the water purifier of the present invention, by vibrating the water to be sprayed with the vibrator, the spray becomes finer and the surface area of the spray is increased, so that harmful low boiling point substances such as trihalomethane in water are evaporated. It is promoted and purification efficiency is improved.

At the same time, miniaturization of the device is achieved.
