ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to an electrolytic ion water generator for producing alkali ion water containing alkali ions and acid ion water containing acid ions by introducing tap water or the like into an electrolytic cell comprising electrodes and ion exchange membranes arranged alternately which electrolyze the electrolytes in the water.
Electrolytic cell unit panels having the same shape are constructed by attaching the electrode plate and ion exchange membrane onto each synthetic resin frame. The electrolytic cell unit panels are layered in a water-tight manner facing the front sides to front sides and the rear sides to rear sides via O-rings. A water-inlet external cover is attached at one end of the layered electrolytic cell unit panels, and a water-outlet external cover is attached at the other end of the layered electrolytic cell unit panels in a water-tight manner to secure the total assembly.
Since the electrolytic ion water generator of this invention can be assembled just by layering electrolytic cell unit panels of the same shape, the assembly process is simplified and the whole device is compact. By adjusting the number of layered electrolytic cell unit panels, it is simple to manufacture a generator having the required ion water production capacity.
When the flow-path switching mechanism which is actuated in response to the change of polarity of the electrode plate is installed within a separate panel inserted in the water-outlet external cover or between the water-outlet external cover and the electrolytic cell unit panel, the scale deposited on the cathode plate during operation can be removed without interrupting the generation of ion water.
