The water is discharged from the water inlet 11a through the passage 11. In this embodiment, the water inlet 11a is closed so as to be openable and closable by an upper opening type lid 12 that is rotatably supported by the pot case 2 or the top wall 9. In this case, when the pot case 2 is tilted, the lid 12 can be rotated by its own weight, dynamic pressure of water, or the like to open the water inlet 11a.

次に、図２〜図４を参照して、浄水カートリッジ６の構成について説明する。本実施形態の浄水カートリッジ６は、浄水器１に装着されるカートリッジ本体２０とこのカートリッジ本体２０を包装する包装材３０とを備えて構成されている。   Next, the configuration of the water purification cartridge 6 will be described with reference to FIGS. The water purification cartridge 6 of the present embodiment includes a cartridge main body 20 that is attached to the water purifier 1 and a packaging material 30 that wraps the cartridge main body 20.

カートリッジ本体２０は、略円筒形状に形成されており、当該円筒形状の中心軸Ａｘ（図１，図２参照）が上下方向に沿う姿勢で使用される。なお、以下では、使用状態におけるカートリッジ本体２０の円筒形状を基準として、上下方向、軸方向、周方向、および径方向を規定する。   The cartridge body 20 is formed in a substantially cylindrical shape, and the cylindrical central axis Ax (see FIGS. 1 and 2) is used in a posture along the vertical direction. In the following, the vertical direction, the axial direction, the circumferential direction, and the radial direction are defined based on the cylindrical shape of the cartridge main body 20 in the used state.

カートリッジ本体２０は、略円形状の底壁部１３と当該底壁部１３の外周から立設される周壁部１４とを有したケース７と、当該ケース７に液密状態で結合される蓋８とを備えている。   The cartridge body 20 includes a case 7 having a substantially circular bottom wall portion 13 and a peripheral wall portion 14 erected from the outer periphery of the bottom wall portion 13, and a lid 8 coupled to the case 7 in a liquid-tight state. And.

ケース７内には、例えば活性炭やイオン交換樹脂等の浄化剤１５が充填されており、当該ケース７の底壁部１３および周壁部１４と蓋８とによって、浄化剤１５が収容される浄化室Ｓ１を形成している。   The case 7 is filled with a purifying agent 15 such as activated carbon or ion exchange resin, for example, and a purifying chamber in which the purifying agent 15 is accommodated by the bottom wall portion 13 and the peripheral wall portion 14 of the case 7 and the lid 8. S1 is formed.

底壁部１３の略中央部分には、浄化室Ｓ１に導入された水を排水口７ｃから排出するための孔１３ａが設けられている。この底壁部１３の孔１３ａには、排水口７ｃに連通する大径部１６が連設されており、本実施形態では、この大径部１６の内部が例えばカルシウム等の添加剤２７を収容した添加剤収容室Ｓ２として機能する。添加剤２７は、例えば当該添加剤２７の粒径よりも小さく設定された透水性の袋部材等に収容して添加剤収容室Ｓ２に設けることができる。そして、大径部１６の下端には小径部１７が連設されており、当該小径部１７に排水口７ｃが設けられている。   A hole 13a for discharging the water introduced into the purification chamber S1 from the drain port 7c is provided in a substantially central portion of the bottom wall portion 13. A large-diameter portion 16 communicating with the drain port 7c is continuously provided in the hole 13a of the bottom wall portion 13. In this embodiment, the inside of the large-diameter portion 16 contains an additive 27 such as calcium. Function as the additive storage chamber S2. The additive 27 can be accommodated in, for example, a water-permeable bag member set smaller than the particle size of the additive 27 and provided in the additive accommodating chamber S2. A small-diameter portion 17 is connected to the lower end of the large-diameter portion 16, and a drain port 7 c is provided in the small-diameter portion 17.

また、ケース７には、多孔質プレート１８が当該ケース７の下方まで圧入して設けられている。この多孔質プレート１８は、浄化剤１５が添加剤収容室Ｓ２に漏れてしまうのを防止するためのもので、プレートに形成される細孔の口径が浄化剤１５の粒径よりも小さく設定されており、浄化剤１５はこの多孔質プレート１８の上に充填される。   The case 7 is provided with a porous plate 18 that is press-fitted to the lower side of the case 7. The porous plate 18 is for preventing the purifying agent 15 from leaking into the additive containing chamber S2, and the pore diameter formed in the plate is set smaller than the particle size of the purifying agent 15. The cleaning agent 15 is filled on the porous plate 18.

さらに、本実施形態では、この多孔質プレート１８が、カートリッジ本体２０の中心軸Ａｘから放射状に延びるようにして底壁部１３に部分的に突設された凸部１９により、底上げされた状態で保持されている。多孔質プレート１８が底上げされることにより、浄化室Ｓ１に導入された水は多孔質プレート１８の略全面から流れ落ちることとなるため、底壁部１３に底上げされずに多孔質プレート１８を設けた場合と比べて、水の流れをスムーズにすることができる。なお、例えば底壁部１３を添加剤収容室Ｓ２に向けて傾斜させるようにすれば、より水の流れをスムーズにできる。   Furthermore, in the present embodiment, the porous plate 18 is lifted up by a convex portion 19 that partially projects from the bottom wall portion 13 so as to extend radially from the central axis Ax of the cartridge body 20. Is retained. Since the water introduced into the purification chamber S1 flows down from substantially the entire surface of the porous plate 18 by raising the porous plate 18 to the bottom, the porous plate 18 is provided on the bottom wall portion 13 without being raised. Compared to the case, the flow of water can be made smoother. For example, if the bottom wall portion 13 is inclined toward the additive storage chamber S2, the flow of water can be made smoother.

周壁部１４の上端部には、蓋８と嵌合する突起１４ａが設けられており、この突起１４ａに蓋８のフランジ部２２に形成された溝２２ａを嵌合させることで、これらケース７と蓋８とが液密状態で結合される。   At the upper end of the peripheral wall portion 14, a projection 14 a that fits with the lid 8 is provided. By fitting a groove 22 a formed in the flange portion 22 of the lid 8 into the projection 14 a, The lid 8 is coupled in a liquid-tight state.

蓋８は、略円形状の外形を呈するとともに、導水口８ａが形成される基底部２１を備えている。   The lid 8 has a substantially circular outer shape and includes a base portion 21 in which the water inlet 8a is formed.

導水口８ａは、図３に示すように、略扇状に形成されており、基底部２１の周方向に沿って複数（本実施形態では４つ）設けられている。そして、この導水口８ａには、例えばインサート成形等により浄化剤１５の粒径より小さく設定された透水性のフィルタ部材２５が張られており、浄化剤１５の漏れが防止されている。   As shown in FIG. 3, the water inlet 8 a is formed in a substantially fan shape, and a plurality of (four in this embodiment) are provided along the circumferential direction of the base portion 21. The water inlet 8a is stretched with a water-permeable filter member 25 that is set smaller than the particle size of the purifier 15 by, for example, insert molding, and prevents the purifier 15 from leaking.

また、基底部２１には、当該基底部２１の一端部から他端部に向けて円弧状に架け渡されたアーム部２３が設けられている。このアーム部２３により、蓋８とケース７とが結合されたカートリッジ本体２０を容易に持ち運ぶことができる。   In addition, the base portion 21 is provided with an arm portion 23 that extends in an arc shape from one end portion of the base portion 21 toward the other end portion. By this arm portion 23, the cartridge body 20 in which the lid 8 and the case 7 are coupled can be easily carried.

ケース７の底壁部１３の外面には、図２に示すように、カートリッジ本体２０を隔壁体３の凹部３ｂに液密状態で結合するためのシール部２８が設けられており、このシール部２８を凹部３ｂの奥壁３ｃに圧接してカートリッジ本体２０を凹部３ｂに装着させる。   As shown in FIG. 2, a seal portion 28 is provided on the outer surface of the bottom wall portion 13 of the case 7 to couple the cartridge body 20 to the recess 3 b of the partition wall 3 in a liquid-tight state. The cartridge main body 20 is attached to the recess 3b by pressing 28 to the inner wall 3c of the recess 3b.

以上の構成の本実施形態のカートリッジ本体２０では、原水室４の原水を導水口８ａから浄化室Ｓ１内に導入して不純物を除去するとともに、添加剤収容室Ｓ２でカルシウム等の添加剤２７を添加して排水口７ｃから浄化室５に排出させることができる。   In the cartridge main body 20 of the present embodiment having the above-described configuration, the raw water in the raw water chamber 4 is introduced into the purification chamber S1 from the water inlet 8a to remove impurities, and the additive 27 such as calcium is added in the additive storage chamber S2. It can be added and discharged from the drain port 7c to the purification chamber 5.

そして、図４に示すように、本実施形態ではこのようなカートリッジ本体２０を、内部空間３２を真空脱気させた包装材３０で包装する構成とした。   And in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4, it was set as the structure which packages such a cartridge main body 20 with the packaging material 30 which made the internal space 32 vacuum deaerate.

具体的には、包装材３０は、例えばポリエチレンやナイロン、アルミニウム等の素材を用いることができ、内部空間３２にカートリッジ本体２０を収容するとともに、真空ポンプなどで当該内部空間３２の空気を排除することで浄水カートリッジ６を製造することができる。   Specifically, for example, a material such as polyethylene, nylon, and aluminum can be used for the packaging material 30. The cartridge body 20 is accommodated in the internal space 32, and the air in the internal space 32 is excluded by a vacuum pump or the like. Thus, the water purification cartridge 6 can be manufactured.

かかる構成により、包装材３０から取り出した直後におけるカートリッジ本体２０のケース７内（充填された浄化剤１５の粒子間の空間）を減圧状態とすることができるため、当該カートリッジ本体２０を浄水器１に装着させて利用する際に、水の流れを阻害する気泡の影響を抑制することができ、これにより、スムーズに水を導入することが可能となる。   With this configuration, since the inside of the case 7 of the cartridge body 20 (the space between the particles of the filled purifier 15) immediately after being taken out from the packaging material 30 can be in a reduced pressure state, the cartridge body 20 can be placed in the water purifier 1. When it is used by being attached to, it is possible to suppress the influence of air bubbles that hinder the flow of water, and thus it is possible to smoothly introduce water.

以上、説明してきたように、本実施形態では、浄化剤１５が内部に充填されたケース７と、当該ケース７に結合され且つ導水口８ａが形成された蓋８とを有したカートリッジ本体２０と、前記カートリッジ本体２０を内部空間３２に収容するとともに、当該内部空間３２を真空脱気させた包装材３０とを備えた浄水カートリッジ６を用いている。そのため、包装材３０から取り出した直後におけるカートリッジ本体２０のケース７内を減圧状態とすることができるため、当該カートリッジ本体２０を浄水器１に装着させて利用する際に、水の流れを阻害する気泡の影響を抑制でき、スムーズに水を導入することが可能となる。   As described above, in the present embodiment, the cartridge main body 20 having the case 7 filled with the purifier 15 and the lid 8 coupled to the case 7 and having the water inlet 8a formed therein. The cartridge body 20 is housed in the internal space 32, and the water purification cartridge 6 including the packaging material 30 in which the internal space 32 is vacuum degassed is used. Therefore, since the inside of the case 7 of the cartridge main body 20 immediately after being taken out from the packaging material 30 can be in a reduced pressure state, the flow of water is obstructed when the cartridge main body 20 is mounted on the water purifier 1 and used. The influence of air bubbles can be suppressed, and water can be introduced smoothly.

本実施形態にかかる浄水カートリッジ６Ａは、カートリッジ本体２０を包装する包装材３０Ａが、上記第１実施形態の浄水カートリッジ６に対して異なる。   The water purification cartridge 6A according to the present embodiment is different from the water purification cartridge 6 of the first embodiment in the packaging material 30A for packaging the cartridge body 20.

具体的には、本実施形態では、内部空間３２に水３５が充填された包装材３０Ａを用い、この包装材３０Ａの内部空間３２にカートリッジ本体２０を収容する構成とした。   Specifically, in the present embodiment, the packaging material 30A in which the internal space 32 is filled with water 35 is used, and the cartridge body 20 is accommodated in the internal space 32 of the packaging material 30A.

かかる構成により、浄化剤１５が充填されたケース７内に水３５が充填されるため、包装材３０Ａを開封してカートリッジ本体２０を浄水器１に装着させて利用する際に、水の流れを阻害する気泡の影響を受けなくなり、これにより、スムーズに水を導入することが可能となる。   With this configuration, the case 35 filled with the purifying agent 15 is filled with water 35. Therefore, when the packaging material 30A is opened and the cartridge body 20 is mounted on the water purifier 1 and used, the flow of water is reduced. It is not affected by the hindering bubbles, and this makes it possible to introduce water smoothly.

［第３実施形態］
次に、本発明の第３実施形態について図面を参照して説明する。図６は、本実施形態にかかる浄水カートリッジの斜視図である。 [Third Embodiment]
Next, a third embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 6 is a perspective view of the water purification cartridge according to the present embodiment.

本実施形態にかかる浄水カートリッジ６Ｂは、カートリッジ本体２０を包装する包装材３０Ｂが、上記第１、第２実施形態にかかる浄水カートリッジ６、６Ａに対して異なる。   The water purification cartridge 6B according to the present embodiment is different from the water purification cartridges 6 and 6A according to the first and second embodiments in the packaging material 30B for packaging the cartridge body 20.

具体的には、本実施形態では、内部空間３２に炭酸ガス３７が充填された包装材３０Ｂを用い、この包装材３０Ｂの内部空間３２にカートリッジ本体２０を収容する構成とした。   Specifically, in the present embodiment, a packaging material 30B in which the internal space 32 is filled with carbon dioxide gas 37 is used, and the cartridge body 20 is accommodated in the internal space 32 of the packaging material 30B.

かかる構成により、浄化剤１５が充填されたケース７内に炭酸ガス３７が充填され、当該ケース７内に水を導入するとケース７内の炭酸ガス３７が当該水に溶解するため、包装材３０Ｂを開封してカートリッジ本体２０を浄水器１に装着させて利用する際に、水の流れを阻害する気泡の影響を受けず、スムーズに水を導入することが可能となる。   With such a configuration, the carbon dioxide gas 37 is filled in the case 7 filled with the purifier 15, and when water is introduced into the case 7, the carbon dioxide gas 37 in the case 7 is dissolved in the water. When the cartridge body 20 is opened and attached to the water purifier 1 for use, it is possible to smoothly introduce water without being affected by bubbles that obstruct the flow of water.

以上、本発明の好適な実施形態について説明したが、本発明は上記実施形態には限定されず、種々の変形が可能である。例えば、カートリッジ本体を円筒形以外の形状としてもよい。また、添加剤収容室や、浄化室、導水口、その他細部のスペック（形状、大きさ、レイアウト等）も適宜に変更可能である。   The preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described above.
