发明内容
发明所要解决的问题
然而,在专利文献1的发明中存在:在中间过程中生成的酸性电解水的主要成分是次氯酸且其会残留的问题、产生抗药菌的问题、进而需要生成时间的问题、成本高等的问题。
另一方面,在专利文献2的发明中存在:由于利用便携式臭氧水生成器以局部清洗为目的,因此前提是供水水质为清水的问题;由于是动物或人的外伤部位清洗用途,因此生成臭氧水排出量少的问题。
本发明的目的在于,实现一种以往没有的洗衣机,其解决这些问题,不会因臭氧生成而产生残留物质,即使所利用的水不是清水且是大量的,也能可靠地进行除菌、消臭。
用于解决问题的方案
本发明为了解决如上问题,采取了如下方案。
即,本发明的洗衣机的特征在于,具备:供水路,用于对洗涤筒进行供水;以及臭氧生成装置,在该供水路内配置臭氧电极而构成,所述臭氧生成装置以如下方式构成,即,包含第一臭氧生成部和与该第一臭氧生成部串联配置的第二臭氧生成部,并穿过两个臭氧生成部而进行供水。
此外,本发明的特征在于,使所述供水路中的设置有所述第一臭氧生成部的供水路的直径、以及设置有所述第二臭氧生成部的供水路的直径小于对两个臭氧生成部之间进行连接的连接路的直径。
此外,本发明的特征在于,将所述臭氧生成装置配置于形成在所述供水路的一部分的水平部,在该水平部的两端使供水路弯曲成曲柄状,能从所述弯曲部将臭氧电极***/取出于各臭氧生成部的供水路内。
此外,本发明的特征在于,在所述第二臭氧生成部的下游区域具备使水旋转的旋流区。
发明效果
即使生成臭氧,当在供水水质中存在氯、细菌、异物等时,臭氧也会被消 耗于其分解,而不会奏效于洗涤物的除菌、消臭。特别是,在利用地下水的情况下,有时会因原水中所含的杂菌类的影响而成为发臭的原因。
对此,本发明使所供给的水串联地穿过第一、第二臭氧生成部并通过水的电解而产生臭氧,因此,能利用第一臭氧生成部对所导入的水进行初期除菌而净化,然后利用第二臭氧生成部提高臭氧浓度,可靠地将所需浓度、所需量的臭氧水稳定地供给至洗涤筒。此外,在无需初期除菌的情况下,能进一步提高供给至洗涤筒的臭氧水的浓度。然后,也不会因臭氧生成而产生残留物质。
此外,根据使设置有第一、第二臭氧生成部的供水路的直径小于两个臭氧生成部之间的连接路的直径的本发明,将臭氧电极浸泡在水中而容易提高与水的接触效率,能高效地进行臭氧生成和臭氧电极的冷却。
此外,根据构成为水平配置臭氧生成装置、并使两端呈曲柄状而能对电极进行***/取出的本发明,能促进臭氧电极完全没于水中,并且仅对劣化后的电极进行清扫或更换即可,也无需特殊的电极,因此,容易维护臭氧电极且也有助于成本降低。
此外,若事先在第二臭氧生成部的下游区域进一步设置旋流区,则通过臭氧气体的气泡与水的混合能进一步提高臭氧水的浓度,能确保混合所需的流道长度,并且能紧凑地构成臭氧生成***。

具体实施方式
以下,基于附图对本发明的一个实施方式进行详细说明。
图1是表示滚筒式洗衣机W的概略构成的图。该洗衣机W具备:供水路2,用于向滚筒1内的洗涤筒1a进行供水;供热水路3,同样地用于向滚筒1内进行供热水;排水路4,用于对滚筒1内的水进行排水;柔软剂供给路5以及洗涤剂供给路6,用于向滚筒1内供给柔软剂、洗涤剂。供给***即供水路2、供热水路3、柔软剂供给路5以及洗涤剂供给路6连接于设置在滚筒1的上方的集水导入部7,排水路4连接于滚筒1的下方。此外,还设置有用于对超过水位上限的水进行排水的溢流路8。
该洗衣机W构成为:为了实施洗涤过程、漂洗过程、柔软整理过程以及脱水过程等,利用控制单元C适当地对作为各给排***的阀的供水阀2a、供热水阀3a、以及排水阀4a进行开闭,或者使柔软剂用泵5a、洗涤剂用泵6a工作,进行供水、供热水、洗涤剂供给、柔软剂供给,并且对滚筒1的旋转进行控制来实施各过程。在供水阀2a和供热水阀3a的上游分别配置有供水过滤器2b、3b。
然后,设置有用于向滚筒1的内部供给臭氧水的臭氧生成装置9。这是由于,所供给的水不限于自来水,地下水等也可以作为对象,因此需要净化。对于臭氧生成装置9,通过对后述的臭氧电极进行通电而使其工作,在该实施方式中,控制单元C在洗涤过程、漂洗过程中事先将该通电设为OFF,仅在洗涤过程的后半程的软洗过程时将通电设为ON。这是由于,即使在早期阶段将通电设为ON,所产生的臭氧也会被消耗于洗涤开始初期的洗涤物的除菌、消臭,实效性差。其中,通电ON的定时可以适当设定。未将臭氧生成装置9设置于供热水路3是由于当温度高时臭氧难以稳定生成。
在该情况下,当臭氧生成装置9的功能低时,在供水过程中残存氯、细菌、异物等的情况下,臭氧会被消耗于其分解,无法生成所希望的浓度的臭氧水,因此,不会奏效于洗涤物的除菌、消臭。此外,当臭氧水的投入方法差时,恐怕会因冲击而导致臭氧水浓度降低。
因此,如图2的局部细节图所示,本实施方式将第一臭氧生成部91与第二臭氧生成部92串联配置来构成臭氧水生成装置9,穿过两个臭氧生成部91、92而生成臭氧水。然后,如图1所示,通过与所述供水路2独立的单独配管构成作为本发明的供水路的臭氧供水路102,与供水过滤器102b、臭氧水供水阀102a一起配置臭氧水生成装置9,将该臭氧水生成装置9的出口连接于设置在滚筒1的下方的臭氧供水口X,利用控制单元C控制臭氧供水阀102a,由此对滚筒1进行臭氧水的供水。如此构成,通过对各臭氧生成部91、92所具备的臭氧电极91a、92a进行通电,与臭氧电极91a、92a的表面接触的水被分解而产生臭氧气体,该臭氧气体溶解在水中而变成臭氧水。
由此,在导入至第一臭氧生成部91的水中存在细菌、臭气的情况下,能通过初期除菌对其进行净化,然后利用第二臭氧生成部92提高臭氧浓度。其结果是,能将所需浓度、所需量的臭氧水稳定地供给至洗涤筒1a,在无需初期除菌的情况下,能提高供给至洗涤筒的臭氧水的浓度。然后,也不会因臭氧生成而产生残留物质。
具体而言,供水路2的一部分是水平配置的水平部2a,在该水平部2a的两端连接设置铅垂部2b、2c,而使供水路2弯曲成曲柄状。水平部2a由构成第一臭氧生成部91的第一电极***用供水路21、构成第二臭氧生成部92的第二电极***用供水路22、以及对两个电极***用供水路21、22之间进行连接的连接路23构成,使两个电极***用供水路21、22的直径小于连接路23的直径。
通过形成这种水平部2a,容易形成用于使臭氧电极91a、92a没于水中的水积存处。在该情况下,由于流道直径的差异,第一、第二电极***用供水路21、22优先被水充满,因此,容易使臭氧电极91a、92a完全没于水中,能提高臭氧与水的接触效率。此外,即使在臭氧生成时臭氧电极91a、92a发热,通过使其浸泡于水中也会获得冷却效果,此外无需用水充满连接路23,因此,也无需为了使水流动而从上游侧施加高的水压。
若对臭氧电极91a、92a的装配构造进行说明,则第一、第二臭氧生成部91、92通过将第一、第二臭氧电极91a、92a***第一、第二电极***用供水路21、22内而构成。如图3所示,第一、第二臭氧电极91a、92a使用如下类型的电解电极,即,在绝缘状态下将带状或线状的阴极9B呈螺旋状卷绕于棒状的由金刚石电极形成的阳极9A的周围。
臭氧电极91a、91b在基端一体地具有电极固定螺纹部9C和凸缘9D,在贯通该凸缘9D和电极固定螺纹部9C的阳极9A连接有未图示的供电部,阴极9B通过电极固定螺纹部9D等接地。在图2所示的构成供水路2的水平部2a的一端侧,在曲柄状的弯曲部2x设置有开口,在该开口形成螺纹孔2b1,将第一臭氧电极91a***该螺纹孔2b1并将电极固定螺纹部9C螺接于螺纹孔2b1,经由衬垫9E使凸缘9D密接于铅垂部2b,使臭氧电极91a位于第一供水路91内。
同样地,在构成供水路2的水平部2a的另一端侧,在曲柄状的弯曲部2y设置有开口,在该开口形成螺纹孔2c1,将第二臭氧电极92a***该螺纹孔2c1并将电极固定螺纹部9C螺接于螺纹孔2c1,经由衬垫9E使凸缘9D密接于铅垂部2c,使臭氧电极92a位于第二供水路92内。
在如上所述将供水路2设为包含水平部2a的曲柄形状的情况下,容易在水平部2a形成空气层,但如上所述通过对臭氧生成部91、92与连接路23的流道直径赋予差异,而设为在臭氧生成部91、92难以形成空气积存处的构造。然后,通过如此设为将各臭氧生成部91、92的臭氧电极91a、92a物理分离的拆装构造,在水中的矿物附着于臭氧电极91a、92a等而劣化的情况下,不但能容易地仅取出此劣化后的电极而进行清扫或更换,也无需特殊的电极,因此,容易维护臭氧电极91a、92a,也有助于降低零件成本。
此外,本实施方式在第二弯曲部2y的下游区域经由旋流区10连接设置有臭氧水混合区11,将穿过该臭氧水混合区11的臭氧水向臭氧供水口X导入。
旋流区10使用了图4所示的波纹软管H,如用箭头示出水流那样,在水以紊流状态流经管10a内的期间,臭氧气体的气泡与水混合,促进臭氧浓度的上升。
在图2所示的臭氧水混合区11中,臭氧与水也以气相与液相邻接的状态流 动,由此,臭氧溶解于水中而使臭氧浓度上升。对于该臭氧水混合区11而言,需要确保为了使臭氧溶解于水中所需的流道长度,但能通过设置旋流区10来有效地进行混合,因此,能将臭氧水混合区11的流道长度抑制为最小限度。
如上所述,本实施方式的臭氧生成机制可以在流道中完成,因此,能利用于紧凑地组装并能有效地利用臭氧水的、实用性高的洗衣机W。
然后,对于本实施方式的洗衣机W而言,如使用了文丘里管的一般气体方式的臭氧生成装置那样不需要密闭性,因此,能作为特别适合于主要带烘干功能的自助洗衣店或者洗衣店的商业用、进而家庭用的洗衣机。
以上,对本发明的一个实施方式进行了说明,但各部分的具体构成并不仅限定于上述的实施方式。
例如,在上述实施方式中,在第一、第二臭氧生成部21、22分别独立地***有臭氧电极91a、92a,但也可以构成为:虽然整个臭氧电极物理上为一体,但其一部分作为第一臭氧生成部21发挥功能,另一部分作为第二臭氧生成部22发挥功能。在该情况下,事先增大两个臭氧生成部21、22之间的供水路的直径也是有效的。
此外,在上述实施方式中,具备第一、第二臭氧生成部21、22,但若设置第三臭氧生成部等、臭氧生成部的数量为两个以上则并不限定。
此外,对于上述实施方式的旋流区10使用了波纹软管,但如图5所示,也可以使用管内叶片形状的管10b。该管10b如下:将装配有螺旋状叶片10b1的轴10b2***管10b内,并将叶片10b1的外周紧密接触地配置于管10b的内周,大致截断水的直进性而产生可靠的旋流。
此外,在上述实施方式中,通过单独配管构成了臭氧供水路102,但如图6所示,也可以在从供水路2朝向集水导入部7的流道中途设置利用控制单元C进行开闭控制的三通阀202a,利用该三通阀202a使相当于本发明的供水路的具备臭氧水生成装置9的臭氧供水路302从供水路2分支,将该臭氧供水路302连接于设置在滚筒1的下方的臭氧供水口X。
此外,如图7所示,也可以构成为:在供水路2的一部分组装臭氧生成装置9,在臭氧生成装置9工作时,供水路2作为臭氧供水路发挥功能。对于这种 构成而言,由使臭氧水从上方落下时的冲击导致的臭氧浓度降低若为不成问题的程度,则在简化配管方面有效。
其他构成也可以在不脱离本发明的技术思想的范围内进行各种变形。
