〔産業上の利用分野〕
本発明は、清浄状態に維持すべき液体を入れ、或いは必
要に応じてこの液体を取出すための比較的小容量（小形
）のタンクに関するものである。[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a tank of relatively small capacity (small size) for containing a liquid to be maintained in a clean state or for removing this liquid as necessary. It is.
本発明は、水や飲料などの液体を入れる小形タンクに、
発光ダイオードを小形タンクの内部が照射されるように
配設することにより、小形タンク内を衛生的な状態に保
つようにしたものである。The present invention provides a small tank for storing liquids such as water and beverages.
By arranging light emitting diodes so that the inside of the small tank is illuminated, the inside of the small tank is kept in a sanitary condition.
従来、各種の殺菌消毒に紫外線ランプが使用されている
が、小容量のものでは、ランプの寿命が連続点灯で２０
０ト３０００時間１点減点灯ではその半分と極めて短い
。しかも、紫外線ランプは、ランプを点灯させる九めの
グロー管や安定器の大きさ等の関係で、どうしても小容
量にしては全体が大形となり、小形化が難しい。Conventionally, ultraviolet lamps have been used for various types of sterilization, but the lifespan of small-capacity lamps is limited to 20 hours if they are continuously lit.
When the lighting time is reduced by 1 point for 3000 hours, it is only half that amount, which is extremely short. Moreover, because of the size of the glow tube and ballast used to light the lamp, the overall size of the ultraviolet lamp is large even if the capacity is small, making it difficult to downsize.
浄水器や自動飲料販売機の小容量タンク、棺裂水容器、
加湿器や除湿器又は空気清浄器の水溜タンク、コンタク
トレンズを入れる水容器、その他各種の小形給水タンク
類は、いずれも清浄な衛生的状態を維持する必要がある
が、このような小形タンク内の殺菌に紫外線ランプを使
用すると、上述の理由によりランプの小形化が難しいた
め、必要でない部分まで照射して不経済なばかりでなく
、タンクに簡単に取付けることが困難である。Small capacity tanks for water purifiers and automatic drink vending machines, coffin water containers,
Water storage tanks for humidifiers, dehumidifiers, or air purifiers, water containers for contact lenses, and various other small water supply tanks all need to be maintained in clean and sanitary conditions. If an ultraviolet lamp is used to sterilize water, it is difficult to miniaturize the lamp for the reasons mentioned above, so it is not only uneconomical to irradiate areas that are not needed, but it is also difficult to easily attach it to the tank.
したがって１本発明は、簡単な方法で各種の小形タンク
内の菌による汚染を効率よく防止しようとするものであ
る。Therefore, one object of the present invention is to efficiently prevent contamination by bacteria in various small tanks using a simple method.
本発明は１発光ダイオードが発する光線に含まれる可視
光源や赤外線でも菌の増殖を防止する作用がある点に着
目し、この小形タンクに内部が照射されるように発光ダ
イオードを配設してタンク内部の汚染を防止するように
した。The present invention focuses on the fact that visible light sources and infrared rays contained in the light emitted by light emitting diodes have the effect of preventing the growth of bacteria. This is to prevent internal contamination.
発光ダイオードの発する光線に照射される部分では菌の
増殖が抑えられるので、小形タンクの内部は清浄状態に
保たれる。Since the growth of bacteria is suppressed in the areas exposed to the light emitted by the light emitting diodes, the interior of the small tank is kept clean.
