  • the switching mechanism may, for example, be a dial that can rotate relative to the water purifier body.
  • the water purifier body has the mode name written on the surface facing upward.

  • the operator moves the claws 37a radially outward by pulling the dial 30 upward, releasing the dial 30 from the switching member 17.
  • the operator removes the dial 30 from the switching member 17 and then rotates it 180 degrees.
  • the operator attaches the dial 30 to the switching member 17 at a circumferential position where the recess 34 fits into the protrusion 53 in the second position.
  • the "NORMAL" marking M1 which corresponds to the actual mode of the water purifier 1, is located on the front side.
  • the notation part M1 can be attached to the water purifier body 10 at a first position away from the water inlet part 21 on one side in the circumferential direction, and at a second position away from the water inlet part 21 on the other side in the circumferential direction, so that the mode can be easily switched regardless of the positions of the pipes P1 and P2 connected to the water inlet part 21 and the water outlet part 22.
  • the outer diameter of the water purifier body 10 and the outer diameter of the dial 30 are the same, which improves the aesthetic appearance.
  • the dial 30 is attached to the upper side of the water purifier body 10, making it easier to grip when switching modes and improving operability.
  • the water purifier body 10 is a prefilter having a filter 13B that removes solid components from the water, but the configuration is not limited to this.
  • the water purifier may also have a water purification filter that is disposed downstream of the prefilter and removes dissolved components from the water.
  • the present disclosure includes the following aspects:
  • a water purifier comprising: a water purifier body having a water inlet and a water outlet arranged at a distance from each other in the circumferential direction around a central axis; and a dial that is detachably attached to the water purifier body and can rotate in the circumferential direction relative to the water purifier body when attached to the water purifier body, and that can select from a plurality of modes in which water introduced from the water inlet is discharged through different paths depending on the circumferential position relative to the water purifier body, the dial having a plurality of markings on its outer circumferential surface that indicate information relating to the plurality of modes, one of the markings being attachable to the water purifier body at a first position that is away from the water inlet on one side in the circumferential direction and a second position that is away from the water inlet on the other side in the circumferential direction.

Abstract

La présente divulgation concerne un épurateur d'eau pouvant facilement changer de mode, indépendamment de la position des tuyaux raccordés à une entrée d'eau et à une sortie d'eau. L'épurateur d'eau comprend : un corps d'épurateur d'eau avec une entrée d'eau et une sortie d'eau disposées à distance l'une de l'autre dans une direction circonférentielle centrée sur l'axe central ; et un cadran amovible disposé sur le corps d'épurateur d'eau et pouvant tourner dans la direction circonférentielle par rapport au corps d'épurateur d'eau lorsqu'il est monté sur celui-ci, le cadran permettant de sélectionner parmi une pluralité de modes dans lesquels de l'eau introduite à partir de l'entrée d'eau est évacuée par différentes voies en fonction de la position par rapport au corps d'épurateur d'eau dans la direction circonférentielle. Le cadran comporte plusieurs parties de repérage indiquant des informations relatives à la pluralité de modes sur sa surface circonférentielle. L'une des parties de repérage peut être montée sur le corps d'épurateur d'eau à une première position séparée de l'entrée d'eau dans une direction de la direction circonférentielle, et à une seconde position séparée de l'entrée d'eau dans l'autre direction de la direction circonférentielle.
