  • the multiple protrusions 23 are positioning protrusions that position the electrolysis unit 1 in direction D2. More specifically, the power supply body 44 and anode 13 of the power supply unit 4, which will be described later, are located inside the multiple protrusions 22 in direction D2.

  • the other of the two protrusions 23 is positioned at one end in the third direction D3, that is, at a position offset from the center. In this way, by making the positions of the two protrusions 23 different in the third direction D3, it is possible to prevent the elastic body 2 from being attached in the opposite direction to the case 31 of the housing 3.
  • the edge portion 212 of the elastic body 2 is in contact with the power supply body 44 of the power supply unit 4, which will be described later.

  • the anode 13 is the first electrode of the electrolysis unit 1.
  • the anode 13 is formed in a rectangular shape that is long in the direction D2.
  • One surface of the anode 13 i.e., the first surface
  • the power supply body 44 of the power supply unit 4 described below and at least a portion of the other surface (i.e., the second surface) is in contact with the conductive film 12.
  • the anode 13 is formed, for example, by forming a conductive diamond film on a rectangular plate-shaped conductive substrate made of silicon.
  • the conductive film 12 is located between the anode 13 and the cathode 11.
  • the conductive film 12 is, for example, a proton conductive ion exchange film.
  • the conductive film 12 has a plurality of slits extending in the direction D3.
  • the conductive film 12 is, for example, comb-shaped.
  • the conductive film 12 includes a main piece 121 that is elongated in the direction D3 and a plurality of protrusions 122 whose longitudinal direction is the direction D3.
  • the plurality of protrusions 122 are arranged at equal intervals along the direction D2.
  • the extension direction of each of the plurality of protrusions 122 may be a direction that intersects with the direction D2, and does not necessarily have to coincide with the direction D3.
  • the length of the protrusions 122 in the direction D3 is greater than the width of the anode 13 in the direction D3. That is, the length of the slits of the conductive film 12 in the direction D3 is greater than the width of the anode 13 in the direction D3.
  • the cathode 11 is the second electrode of the electrolysis unit 1.
  • the cathode 11 is molded integrally with the electrode plate 42A and the spring unit 43A described below.
  • the cathode 11 has a rectangular shape that is elongated in the direction D2, and is in contact with the conductive film 12 in the direction D1.
  • the cathode 11 is made of a conductive material such as a titanium alloy.
  • the cathode 11 has a number of through holes 111 arranged at equal intervals along the direction D2.
  • Each of the multiple through holes 111 has the same shape, for example, a V-shape. This allows at least a part of the interface between the cathode 11 and the conductive film 12 to come into contact with the liquid (for example, tap water). As a result, at least a part of the interface between the anode 13 and the conductive film 12 comes into contact with the liquid (for example, tap water). Therefore, ozone generated on the surface of the anode 13 is easily dissolved in the liquid (for example, tap water) in the space between the cathode 11 and the cover 32 (hereinafter referred to as the "main flow path"). In addition, it is possible to reduce the decrease in ozone generation efficiency caused by ozone gas remaining inside the electrolysis unit.
  • the width of the multiple through holes 111 of the cathode 11 in the direction D3 is greater than the width of the slits of the conductive film 12 in the direction D3. Therefore, in a plan view from the direction D1, the inside of the through hole 111 has a portion that does not overlap with either the conductive film 12 or the anode 13. That is, the electrolysis unit 1 has a through hole that penetrates the electrolysis unit 1 in the direction D1. Therefore, since a liquid (e.g., tap water) can pass through the electrolysis unit 1 along the direction D1, the ozone concentration in the ozone water in the storage portion 3110 of the case 31 is made uniform, and the generation efficiency of the ozone water is improved.

  • Each of the multiple electrode pins 41 is elongated in direction D1. That is, the longitudinal direction of each electrode pin 41 is parallel to direction D1.
  • Each electrode pin 41 has a flange portion 411, a threaded portion 412, and a shaft portion 413.
  • the flange portion 411 is provided at a first end in direction D1 (see the upper end in FIG. 1).

  • the electrode plates 42A and 42B have a through hole 421 through which the electrode pin 41 penetrates in the direction D1. More specifically, in a plan view from the direction D1, the through hole 421 has a shape that allows the shaft portion 413 to pass through but not the flange portion 411 to pass through. As a result, with the shaft portion 413 of the electrode pin 41 positioned in the through hole 421, at least the flange portion 411 abuts against the electrode plates 42A and 42B.
  • the electrode plate 42A is electrically connected to the cathode 11 via the spring portion 43A.

  • the electrolysis unit 1 is evenly pressed in the direction D3 by the main body 21 of the elastic body 2 and the multiple convex rows 331 of the cover 32. Therefore, the distance between the cathode 11 and the anode 13 in the electrolysis unit 1 is likely to be uniform in the direction D3, and bias in the current density is unlikely to occur. This improves the ozone generation efficiency of the electrolysis unit 1.
  • the protrusions 23 are disposed on the outside of the two end edges 213 of the elastic body 2 in the direction D2. Therefore, the electrolysis unit 1 is evenly pressed in the direction D2 by the main body 21 of the elastic body 2 and the multiple protrusions 332 included in the multiple protrusion rows 331 of the cover 32. This makes it easier for the distance between the cathode 11 and the anode 13 in the electrolysis unit 1 to be uniform in the direction D2, making it less likely that bias in current density will occur. This improves the ozone generation efficiency of the electrolysis unit 1.

  • the force with which the elastic body 2 presses the electrolysis unit 1 in the direction D1 is less likely to be biased in the short direction of the elastic body 2. Therefore, in the electrolysis unit 1, bias in the current density is less likely to occur in the direction D3, which is susceptible to bias in current density, improving the efficiency of generating ozone water.

  • the force with which the cover 32 presses the electrolysis unit 1 in direction D1 is applied evenly in direction D3 to the main body 21 of the elastic body 2 excluding the protrusions 22. Therefore, the force with which the cover 32 and the elastic body 2 press the electrolysis unit 1 in direction D1 becomes uniform in direction D3. Therefore, bias in the current density is less likely to occur in the electrolysis unit 1, improving the efficiency of generating ozone water.

Therefore, bias in electrical resistance is unlikely to occur in the electrolysis unit 1, improving the efficiency of ozone water production. Furthermore, by having the elastic body 2 position the anode 13 in the electrolysis unit 1, the above-mentioned effects can be achieved even if the elastic body 2 does not position the cathode 11. Furthermore, in the electrolytic liquid production device 100 according to the embodiment, since the anode 13 is smaller than the cathode 11, by not having the elastic body 2 position the cathode 11, the area of the cathode 11 can be maximized so that the efficiency of ozone water production is not reduced.

Even with this configuration, the multiple protrusions 22 can position the electrolytic unit 1. Furthermore, compared to a case in which all of the multiple protrusions 22 are inside the two edge portions 211 in the direction D3, the force with which the elastic body 2 presses the electrolytic unit 1 in the direction D1 is less likely to be biased in the direction D3.
