Abstract
The present invention provides an ozonated water generator which can generate highly soluble and highly concentrated ozonated water in an efficient and simple manner. In an ozonated water generator comprising a supply tube for transmitting a treated liquid, a gas/liquid mixing device provided in the path of the supply tube, and an ozone supply structure for supplying ozone to the gas/liquid mixing device. The gas/liquid mixing device is provided with a magnet for creating magnetic force in the interior. Creating magnetic force in both the treated liquid and the ozone makes it possible to generate highly soluble and highly concentrated ozonated water in an efficient and simple manner.
Claims9
A gas/liquid mixing device comprising:
- a magnetically transparent Venturi tube having a small diameter section midway in a large diameter section;
- a gas supply pipe for supplying gas to a liquid that is passing through or that has passed through the small diameter section;
- and
- a magnet provided outside of the Venturi tube;
- wherein the magnet is arranged so as to be capable of generating magnetic force lines capable of extending through at least the small diameter section and the vicinities of the small diameter section.
A gas/liquid mixing device comprising:
- a magnetically transparent cylinder whose length direction is the direction in which liquid passes;
- a plurality of large diameter channels extending through the cylinder in the length direction;
- a small diameter channel formed midway in each of the large diameter channels;
- a gas supply channel for supplying gas to the liquid passing through the small diameter channel;
- a magnet for generating magnetic force lines capable of extending through the liquid passing through at least each of the small diameter channels and concurrently through gas bubbles of the gas contained in the liquid;
- a liquid supply structure capable of diverging and supplying liquid to each of the large diameter channels;
- a liquid-receiving structure capable of collecting and receiving the liquid exhausted from each of the large diameter channels;
- and
- a gas supply structure capable of diverging and supplying gas to the gas supply channel in each of the large diameter channels.
