[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, when a line of magnetic force is irradiated from a direction perpendicular to the flowing direction of water, a minute current is generated in the water and the rotation, expansion and contraction and vibration of the water molecules are activated by flowing from the electrons, and the clusters of the water molecules are activated. It is well known that (populations) become smaller and water is activated. As a result, it is known that water becomes easily absorbed by the human body.In addition, the dissolving power and the penetrating power of the water are increased to remove red casting in the water pipe, thereby forming a stable protective film of triiron tetroxide. For this purpose, various water treatment apparatuses using magnets are known. Those using permanent magnets have a simple structure and can be used permanently without applying energy from the outside, so there is no need for maintenance costs.
Recently, it has attracted attention because it is hygienic when used without contact with water. Among them, there is known a pair of permanent magnets housed in a split housing in which housings are fixed with water pipes interposed therebetween.

[0003]

This conventional device has the advantages that the structure is simple as described above and that it is sanitary because it does not come into contact with water, but it has a large amount of leakage magnetic flux and the state of the magnetic field. However, there was a problem that it was not uniform with water.

An object of the present invention is to provide a water treatment apparatus which has a simple structure, is hygienic, has a small leakage magnetic flux, and is devised so that the state of the magnetic field is uniform with respect to water. is there.

[0005]

In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention is characterized in that a magnetic tunnel formed by a permanent magnet and a cylindrical yoke is formed around a water passage.

The present invention also provides a permanent magnet, a fixing member that forms a part of a passage through which water passes, or has a recess for accommodating a part of a water pipe, and fixes the permanent magnet, and the permanent magnet. A magnetic field tunnel forming unit made of a yoke material connected to the fixed member and covering the outside of the fixing member. The forming units face each other, and a magnetic field tunnel formed of the permanent magnet and the cylindrical yoke is provided. Or a passage for inserting a water pipe.

[0007] The present invention further provides a permanent magnet, a fixing member that forms a part of a passage through which water passes, or has a recess for accommodating a part of a water pipe and fixes the permanent magnet, and the permanent magnet. And a pair of magnetic field tunnel forming units made of a yoke material that covers the outside of the fixed member and are connected to each other. And the passages for the water pipes are formed, and the forming units are further covered with respective housings, and the housings are fixed to each other.

[0008]

According to the first aspect of the present invention, since a magnetic field tunnel is formed by the permanent magnet and the cylindrical yoke surrounding the passage through which water passes, the magnetic flux leaking to the outside is reduced, and the magnetic field distribution is uniform. It becomes. As a result, water that passes directly through the magnetic tunnel or through a pipe such as a water pipe receives stable magnetic field energy, activates vibrations of water molecules, and increases the stable magnetic field. Energy gives an electric potential difference to particles and ions of impurities with interfacial potential, so that those existing in water aggregate,
The solids (such as scales) which flow as they are without being implanted and grow and adhere to and adhere to the pipes are destroyed.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, when the units forming the magnetic field tunnel face each other, the yoke members are magnetically attracted to each other, and water passages formed by the concave portions are formed.
Alternatively, an insertion passage for passing a water pipe is formed between the recesses, and a magnetic field tunnel is formed around the insertion passage.

According to the third aspect of the invention, the same operation as in the second aspect is achieved, and the housings are fixed to each other, whereby the water treatment apparatus is securely fixed without changing the mounting position.

According to the fourth aspect, the structure of the housing is strengthened by the cover while having the same action as the third aspect.
