Hereinafter, specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail, but the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments, and the present invention is carried out with appropriate modifications within the scope of the object of the present invention. can do.

<Water activation system 100>
FIG. 1 is a schematic view showing the appearance of the water activation system 100 according to the present embodiment. The water activation system 100 includes a water activation device 1 and a magnetic force enhancer 2. The water activation system 100 applies magnetism to the water passing through the inside of the water passage pipe 200 by sandwiching the water pipe (for example, the water discharge pipe of the faucet) 200 by the water activation device 1. Then, the water activation system 100 prevents magnetic leakage in the water activation device 1 by covering the water activation device 1 in this state with the magnetic force enhancer 2, and acts on the water passing through the inside of the water pipe 200. Strengthen the magnetism.

[Water activation device 1]
FIG. 2 is a schematic view showing the appearance of the water activation system 100 according to the present embodiment. FIG. 2 shows a state in which the water activator 1 and the magnetic force enhancer 2 are separated. The water activation device 1 includes two water activation parts 10, and by sandwiching a water pipe 200 (see FIG. 1) between the two water activation parts 10, water passing through the inside of the water pipe 200 can be obtained. Make magnetism work.

FIG. 3 is a schematic view showing a cross section of the water activation system 100 according to the present embodiment. Each member constituting the water activation part 10 is housed inside the housing 11. The housing 11 has a facing surface 10a that is in contact with or is in close proximity to the other water activating parts 10 when the water pipe 200 is sandwiched between the two water activating parts 10. The housing 11 is formed of a non-magnetic material such as aluminum, and can suppress the magnetism leaking to the outside of the water activation device 1. The housing 11 may be made of, for example, ABS resin as long as it is a non-magnetic material.

The housing 11 includes a hollow main body 11A and a lid 11B provided on the main body 11A. The main body 11A has a hollow shape, and is formed in a box shape with the facing surface 10a side as the bottom and the opposite side of the facing surface 10a being open. The lid 11B is attached to the opposite side of the facing surface 10a of the main body 11A, and encloses each member constituting the water activation part 10 housed inside the main body 11A.

The main body 11A is formed with a notch 11a on which the water pipe 200 is arranged on the facing surface 10a. In the present embodiment, the notch 11a has a quadrangular shape in which long sides are arranged in the width direction when viewed from the direction in which the water pipe 200 extends, and although it is not an essential configuration, the inside corner is chamfered. By forming the notch 11a in this way, the water activation system 100 can be attached to the water pipes 200 having various shapes. Further, by chamfering the inside corner, when the water pipe 200 is sandwiched between the two water activation parts 10, the portion where the notch 11a and the water pipe 200 abut is not chamfered. Since the number is larger than that, the water activation device 1 can be attached to the water pipe 200 in a more stable state. Further, by chamfering the inside corner, it becomes difficult for water droplets to stay in the inside corner, and it is possible to prevent the generation of mold and the like. The notch 11a is not limited to the shape of the present embodiment, and may have a hemispherical shape when viewed from the direction in which the water pipe 200 extends. This makes it possible to attach the water activation system 100 to a general tube-shaped water pipe 200 without any gaps.

In the water activation part 10, at least a permanent magnet 12 and a yoke 13 are housed inside the main body 11A. The water-activated part 10 preferably further accommodates the non-magnetic conductive metal plate 14 inside the main body 11A.

The type of permanent magnet 12 is not particularly limited. The types of permanent magnets 12 include alnico magnets, KS steels, MK steels, ferrite magnets, samarium cobalt magnets, neodymium magnets, placeodymium magnets, neodymium / iron / boron magnets, samarium nitrogen iron magnets, ferromagnetic iron nitride, platinum magnets, and cerium. -Cobalt magnets, etc. can be mentioned.

The permanent magnet 12 is provided so as to face the facing surface 10a. Then, one permanent magnet 12 of the two water activation parts 10 is arranged so that the surface facing the facing surface 10a is the north pole, and the other permanent magnet 12 has the surface facing the facing surface 10a S. Arranged to be poles. As a result, the surface of one permanent magnet 12 having the north pole and the surface of the other permanent magnet 12 having the south pole are sandwiched between the facing surfaces 10a of the two water activation parts 10, respectively. It functions as a magnetic action surface that causes magnetism to act on the water passing through the inside of the 200.

In the present embodiment, the main body 11A is formed so that the thickness of the facing surface 10a is thinner than the thickness of other portions. As a result, the magnetic force acting on the fluid passing through the water pipe 200 sandwiched between the facing surfaces 10a of the two water activation parts 10 can be further increased. Further, the permanent magnet 12 is formed in a rectangular parallelepiped shape, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, a surface facing the notch 11a (magnetic action surface) is formed in a shape conforming to the shape of the notch 11a. May be good. As a result, the distance between the permanent magnet 12 and the water pipe 200 can be made uniform, so that the magnetic force can be concentrated on the water passing through the water pipe 200 without waste.

The yoke 13 is arranged on the side opposite to the magnetically acting surface of the permanent magnet 12. Both ends of the yoke 13 are bent in a substantially U shape toward the magnetically acting surface side of the permanent magnet 12, and the yoke 13 has a central portion 13a arranged in parallel with the magnetically acting surface of the permanent magnet 12 and the center. A bent portion 13b, which is an example of both end portions, extends from both ends of the portion 13a toward the magnetically acting surface side of the permanent magnet 12 and reaches the facing surface 10a.

The yoke 13 has a function of increasing the attractive force of the permanent magnet 12. The material of the yoke 13 is not particularly limited as long as it is a magnetic material that enhances the attractive force of the permanent magnet 12, and examples thereof include steel materials (SS400, etc.), pure iron (SUY-1, etc.), soft iron plates, magnetic ceramic plates, and the like. Be done.

In the present embodiment, the surfaces of both ends (bent portion 13b) of the yoke 13 facing the permanent magnets 12 in a direction substantially orthogonal to the magnetizing direction of each permanent magnet 12 in the two water-activated parts 10. The distance L between the ends of the permanent magnets 12 in the opposite direction and the ends in the direction orthogonal to each other is larger than 1/2 times the thickness of the permanent magnets 12 (dimensions in the directions facing each other of the permanent magnets 12). It is preferable that the thickness of the permanent magnet 12 is approximately 1.5 times or more. Since both ends of the yoke 13 and the permanent magnet 12 are separated from each other, the magnetic flux density decreases due to a short circuit of the magnetic circuit from the north pole of the permanent magnet 12 to the south pole of the permanent magnet 12. Can be prevented.

The non-magnetic conductive metal plate 14 is arranged between the side surface of the permanent magnet 12 and the bent portions 13b at both ends of the yoke 13.

In the water activation device 1, a magnetic force is generated from the north pole of the permanent magnet 12 of one water activation part 10 toward the south pole of the permanent magnet 12 of the other water activation part 10. When a fluid (water) flows in the water passage tube 13 on which this magnetic force acts, it is orthogonal to the direction of the fluid and the direction of the magnetic force line of this magnetic force (from the magnetic action surface of the permanent magnet 12 of one of the water activation parts 10). The electromotive current is generated in a direction orthogonal to the magnetic action surface of the permanent magnet 12 of the other water activation part 10.

The non-magnetic conductive metal plate 14 is provided to induce and charge the electromotive force generated in this way so as not to cause a discharge loss, and to efficiently discharge the electrons generated by this charging into the fluid.

The non-magnetic conductive metal plate 14 faces the permanent magnet 12 with the magnetic action surface interposed therebetween, and the surfaces are arranged so as to face each other on the magnetic action surface thereof and are arranged on the side surface of the permanent magnet 12.

Although it is not an essential configuration, it is desirable that the internal space of the housing 11 is filled with a filling member such as a gap between the permanent magnet 12, the yoke 13, and the non-magnetic conductive metal plate 14. The filling member is a solidified product of a fluid filler. As a result, even if moisture or the like enters the inside of the housing 11 from the outside or dew condensation occurs inside the housing 11, the permanent magnet 12, the yoke 13, and the non-magnetic conductive metal plate 14 covered with the filling member Since it is possible to prevent moisture or the like from the outside from adhering to the surface and causing rust to be generated, the magnetic performance and the water activation performance of the water activation device 1 can be stably maintained for a long period of time. Further, since the filling member can securely fix the main body 11A and the lid 11B and prevent the permanent magnets 12 and the like arranged inside the housing 11 from rattling, the permanent magnets 12 and the like can be prevented from rattling. , It is possible to reduce the arrangement of the yoke 13 and the non-magnetic conductive metal plate 14 from being displaced or distorted, and the permanent magnet 12 from being cracked or chipped, so that the water activation device 1 can be used. The magnetic performance and water activation performance can be maintained. The material of the filling member is not particularly limited as long as it can fill the gap between the permanent magnet 12, the yoke 13, and the non-magnetic conductive metal plate 14, and examples thereof include silicone resin.

[Magnetic force enhancer 2]
Returning to FIG. 1, the magnetic force enhancer 2 is formed of a magnetic material (for example, steel material (SS400 etc.), pure iron (SUY-1 etc.), soft iron plate, magnetic ceramic plate, etc.) and has two water activations. It is magnetically attached to the part 10 and is arranged so as to straddle the two water activation parts 10 in a state where the water passage pipe 200 is arranged between the two water activation parts 10.

As shown in FIG. 2, the magnetic force strengthening tool 2 includes two magnetic force strengthening parts 20, and the water activation device 1 is covered by the two magnetic force strengthening parts 20. The magnetic force enhancing part 20 includes an L-shaped portion 21 and a U-shaped portion 22.

As shown in FIG. 3, the L-shaped portion 21 has two surfaces (side surfaces 1a, 1b) adjacent to each other among four surfaces (side surfaces 1a, 1b, 1c, 1d) substantially parallel to the water pipe 200 of the water activation device 1. Alternatively, it covers the side surfaces 1c and 1d) and is formed in a substantially L shape when viewed from the direction in which the water pipe 200 extends. Specifically, when one of the two magnetic force enhancing parts 20 covers the side surfaces 1a and 1b of the water activation device 1, the other magnetic force enhancing part 20 covers the side surfaces 1c and 1d.

As shown in FIG. 2, the U-shaped portion 22 is arranged on either of the two faces (end face 1e or end face 1f) substantially orthogonal to the water pipe 200 of the water activation device 1, and is formed on the L-shaped portion 21. A notch 22a connected to the side edge and through which the water pipe 200 is inserted is formed, and is formed in a substantially U shape when viewed from the direction in which the water pipe 200 extends. Specifically, when one of the two magnetic force enhancing parts 20 is arranged on the end surface 1e of the water activation device 1, the other magnetic force enhancing part 20 is arranged on the end surface 1f.

In the present embodiment, the L-shaped portion 21 and the U-shaped portion 22 of the magnetic force enhancer 2 are formed to have substantially the same size as the side surface and the end surface of the water activator 1 arranged respectively, but the present invention is limited to this. Instead, it may be formed larger than the side surface or the end surface of the water activation device 1. As a result, for example, the outer shape of the water pipe 200 is larger than the inner diameter of the hole formed by the notch 11a of the two water-activating parts 10 in close contact with each other, and the two water-activating parts 10 are separated from each other. Even so, the water activation device 1 can be covered by straddling the two water activation parts 10.

Further, in the magnetic force enhancer 2, it is preferable that the outer surface of the magnetic material is covered with a rubber material. As a result, it is possible to prevent rust and the like from being generated on the magnetic material. Coating on such a magnetic material is performed, for example, by immersing the magnetic material in a liquid rubber material, then pulling it up and drying it. The magnetic force enhancing part 20 of the present embodiment has two surfaces of the L-shaped portion 21 and a vertex where the U-shaped portion 22 is connected. When the rubber material is immersed in the rubber material with the inside of the apex facing downward, air remains inside the apex, and the magnetic material cannot be smoothly immersed in the liquid rubber material. On the other hand, when immersed in a rubber material with the inside of this apex facing up, the magnetic material can be smoothly immersed in the liquid rubber material, but when it is pulled up, the rubber material is inside this apex. Accumulates and cannot be covered uniformly. Therefore, by forming a hole at the apex where the two surfaces of the L-shaped portion 21 and the U-shaped portion 22 are connected, when the rubber material is immersed in the state where the inside of the apex faces downward. It is possible to let air escape from this hole, and when the rubber material is immersed in the rubber material with the inside of this apex facing up, the rubber material can flow down from this hole, and the workability and quality of the coating can be improved. improves.

Here, when the two water-activating parts 10 are magnetized with each other by sandwiching the water pipe 200 between them, as shown in FIG. 3, the yokes 13 of the two water-activating parts 10 The ends of the bent portion 13b are in a state of facing each other with the main body 11A, which is a non-magnetic material, interposed therebetween. Therefore, magnetism leaks from between the ends of the bent portions 13b of the respective yokes 13 of the two water-activated parts 10. Therefore, by arranging the magnetic force enhancer 2 so as to straddle the two water activating parts 10, the magnetic force is formed between the ends of the bent portions 13b of the respective yokes 13 in the two water activating parts 10. Since it can be covered with the magnetic force enhancer 2 formed by the body, it is possible to suppress the leakage of magnetism, and the magnetism between the two water activation parts 10 (the part where the water passage pipe 200 is arranged) is correspondingly. Can be enhanced.

[Experimental example]
In this experimental example, the magnetic force was measured when the magnetic force enhancer 2 was attached to the water activator 1 and when it was not attached. FIG. 4 is a table showing magnetism as an experimental result. In this experimental example, the magnetic force at the positions A, B1, B2, C1, C2, C3, and D shown in FIG. 2 was measured.

As shown in FIG. 4, since the magnetic force is remarkably reduced in the portion where the magnetic force enhancer 2 is arranged (B1, B2, C1, C2, C3, D), water can be provided by providing the magnetic force enhancer 2. It was confirmed that the magnetic force could be prevented from leaking from the activation device 1.

Further, it was confirmed that the magnetic force on the side wall (A) of the hole (the portion where the water pipe 200 is arranged) formed by the notch 11a is increased by providing the magnetic force enhancer 2.

The U-shaped portion 22 is arranged on one of two surfaces substantially orthogonal to the water pipe 200 of the water activation device 1, is connected to the side edge of the L-shaped portion 21, and is a notch through which the water pipe 200 is inserted. Is formed, and is formed in a substantially U-shape when viewed from the direction in which the water pipe 200 extends. The magnetic force enhancer 2 covers the six surfaces of the water activator 1 with these two magnetic force enhancer parts 20.

As a result, it is possible to cover the six surfaces of the square pillar-shaped water activating device 1 formed by magnetizing the two water activating parts 10 to each other, so that the magnetism leaking to the outside of the water activating device 1 is ensured. It is possible to further enhance the magnetism acting on the water passing through the inside of the water passage pipe 200 arranged between the two water activation parts 10. Therefore, the magnetic force acting on the water passing through the water pipe 200 can be further increased.
