Specifically, since the water discharge port 21f and the electrolysis device water outlet 21d are disposed on the same side of the case 21, that is, the water discharged from the water discharge port 21f is also electrolyzed water after being electrolyzed by the electrolysis electrode 22, it is ensured that the water taken into the storage tank 5a from the water discharge port 21f is also electrolyzed water after being electrolyzed; furthermore, since the flow area of the water discharge port 21f is smaller than that of the electrolysis device water outlet 21d, the flow resistance of the liquid flow from the electrolysis device water outlet 21d to the storage tank 5a is smaller than that from the water discharge port 21f to the storage tank 5a, so that most of the electrolyzed water still flows from the electrolysis device water outlet 21d to the storage tank 5a and a small part of the electrolyzed water flows from the water discharge port 21f to the storage tank 5 a. When the water electrolysis is not needed, no water is fed into the electrolysis cavity 21a, the liquid level in the electrolysis cavity 21a is lowered, and when the liquid level is lower than the water outlet 21d of the electrolysis device, the water in the electrolysis cavity 21a is discharged from the water outlet 21d of the electrolysis device and is discharged from the water outlet 21f until the water in the electrolysis cavity 21a is emptied.
