Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to the improvement of a device that generates ionized water by electrolyzing tap water, etc. and ion-exchanging it through a diaphragm inserted between two electrodes, and aims at highly efficient ion generation. .

Conventional devices use a medium porous material with 1 to 10 degrees of porosity in the diaphragm, so when using fine powder of calcium lactate as the added calcium, the powder can move through the diaphragm and is driven by the diaphragm action. There was a drawback that the powder moved. In addition, to eliminate this drawback, the mesh of the diaphragm can be made smaller, but in this case, the resistance to ion movement increases,
However, this process had the drawback of requiring a long processing time and reducing efficiency.
In view of the above points, the present invention includes a source of air flow between the cathode and the anode.
The feature is that a pulse current is applied instead of the conventional steady DC current. Pulse electrolysis and pulsed ion exchange are performed by applying pulsed current, and a large amount of ions can be efficiently generated. Even if the mesh of the exchange membrane is small, the ion movement speed can be increased, and the movement of calcium lactate powder can also be prevented. , which can generate ions with high efficiency. This will be explained below with reference to the drawings.

In FIG. 1, 1 is a processing container into which tap water and the like are supplied and processed. 2 is a diaphragm inserted into the water, which has a cylindrical shape with a bottom, through which ions are exchanged.

200A~1P for diaphragm material? Ceramics, unglazed ceramics, sponges, porous foams, etc., each having a certain degree of porosity, are used as ion exchange membranes through which only exchanged ions pass. Reference numeral 3 denotes an anode inserted into the diaphragm cylinder 2, and an insoluble platinum-plated electrode is usually used as the anode electrode material.

Reference numeral 4 denotes a cathode inserted outside the cylindrical body 2, and a pulse power source 5 is connected between the cathode and the anode to perform pulse energization.

In the container configured as described above, water to be treated 6 such as tap water is supplied throughout the interior and exterior of the cylinder 2. Further, a calcium material such as calcium lactate powder 7 is supplied into the cylindrical body 2 of the anode 3 . Of course, it is advantageous to be equipped with a mulch or the like for constantly stirring the added and mixed calcium lactate powder 7. Electrolysis is performed by applying current between the cathode and anode 3 and 4, and ions are generated.

Calcium ions are generated by electrolyzing the calcium lactate powder 7. The generated ions are moved and exchanged through the diaphragm 2 by the electric field, and alkaline water is produced on the cathode 4 side. Therefore, pulses are used to supply current between the cathode and anode 3 and 4. By applying a varying current, the generation of ions and the transfer and exchange of ions through the membrane occur rapidly and efficiently. Preferably, a high frequency pulse having a pulse length of 100 seconds or less is applied.
FIG. 2 shows the results of a test comparing the processing effects of conventional steady current application and pulsed current application of the present invention.

The axis indicates the treatment time, and the vertical axis indicates the pH value on the cathode side through the corneal membrane. The energizing pulse of the present invention is an on-pulse.

Electrolysis is performed using n10 s and off-pulse 8 s, and the processing time is halved compared to the conventional example, making it possible to rapidly generate ionized water. By applying pulse current in this manner, the ion movement effect is enhanced, so that the mesh of the diaphragm 2 can be made sufficiently small. As can be seen in the conventional example in Figure 2 above, when the mesh of the diaphragm is made larger, the pH
It can be seen that the increase in change in ions, that is, the movement speed of ions is increased, but if the mesh is large, there is a drawback that the calcium lactate powder added to the anode side also moves with the movement of ions. In the present invention, the ion movement effect is enhanced by pulsed energization, so the mesh of the diaphragm is made sufficiently small to 200 mm.
A~1 Buddha? Even if a small amount of holes are formed and electrolyzed, high speed and high efficiency processing can be performed.

Ion is weakly alkaline water that is necessary for a healthy body.It can be produced with high efficiency, can be easily used at home and in hospitals, and is extremely effective as a health device.
