To this end, the upper case 110a has a short cylindrical body and the drain port 111 passes through the lower case 110b in a vertical direction so that the user can drink drinking water made by purifying the raw water in the lower case 110b . The upper end located on the upper surface of the upper case 110a of the drain port 111 becomes an outlet 111a through which the user can open the mouth and the lower end located on the lower surface of the upper case 110a is received And serves as an inlet 111b for receiving drinking water purified from the unit 112. In addition, on the upper surface of the upper case 110a, a state of charge by the self-generating member 160 is displayed or a time is calculated on the basis of the operating point of the ultraviolet lamp 150, And an operation indicator LED 165b for indicating that the ultraviolet lamp 150 is operating is provided in a blinking manner. Although it is not shown in the drawing, it is preferable that a small-sized cover capable of blocking the outlet 111a of the drain port 111 is provided or a large cover of a cylindrical shape capable of covering the entire upper case 110a is provided.

The lower case 110b has a longer cylindrical body than the upper case 110a and has a receiving part 112 opened at the upper part so as to contain raw water that requires purified water. In addition, the upper case of the lower case 110b is configured to be coupled and detachable corresponding to the lower end of the upper body. For example, the lower case 110b may have a structure of screw engagement or interference fit.

The support bar 120 is vertically installed at a lower portion of the upper case 110a and is accommodated long in the center of the receiving portion 112 of the lower case 110b when the upper case 110a and the lower case 110b are engaged, And the lower end reaches and reaches the lower portion of the accommodating portion 112. A water filter 130 and a first safety switch 142 are installed at a lower end of the support rod 120.

The water filter 130 filters raw water stored in the receiving portion 112 of the lower case 110b to remove foreign matter. To this end, the water filter 130 is installed at the lower end of the support rod 120 in a plate shape, and has a structure in which a pre-filter layer, an adsorption filter layer, and a carbon fiber filter layer are laminated. Here, the pre-filter layer takes charge of foreign substances and floating substances relatively thick particles, and the adsorption filter layer adsorbs foreign matter, bacteria, microorganisms, etc., relatively fine compared with the pre-filter layer, The carbon fiber filter layer carries ultrafine foreign substances, bacteria, microorganisms, and the like, which are finer particles, than the adsorption filter by the carbon nanofibers and filters them. The water filter 130 configured as described above descends from the upper portion to the lower portion of the accommodating portion 112 along the support bar 120 to remove parasitic eggs, microorganisms, chemical elements and the like from the raw water contained in the accommodating portion 112 So that foreign matter can be filtered.

The operation switch 141 serves to turn on and off the ultraviolet lamp 150. To this end, the operation switch 141 is installed at the lower end of the outer circumference of the upper case 110a in a ring shape along the circumferential direction thereof. 5, a pair of steel plates 141a and 141b having protrusions and grooves corresponding to each other are provided between the operation switch 141 and the upper case 110a. As a result, the operation switch 141 has a clicking feeling and can stably maintain the ON and OFF positions as long as no external force is applied. It is preferable that an on / off indicator 141c is printed on the boundary between the operation switch 141 and the upper case 110a to indicate the on / off state of the operation switch 141. [

The first safety switch 142 is installed on the support rod 120 and is pressed while the lower end of the support rod 120 is in contact with the bottom surface of the receiving part 112, 150).
