Abstract
The present invention relates to an electric water heater having an instantaneous hot water storage-type structure allowing a continuous outflow of a large amount of hot water instantaneously, without having to heat the water accommodated inside a housing directly. In the present invention, since the water flowed into the housing is heated while passing through the first and second heat exchange pipes, there is an effect that a large amount of hot water is instantaneously provided without having to heat a large amount of the water accommodated in the housing directly.
Claims11
An electric water heater having an instantaneous hot water storage-type structure, the electric water heater comprising:
- a housing having a space to accommodate water therein, an inlet part being provided at one side of the space, and an outlet part being provided at the other side of the space;
- a first heat exchange pipe disposed at one side of an inside of the housing;
- a second heat exchange pipe disposed at the other side of the inside of the housing;
- a heater that applies heat to the first heat exchange pipe or the second heat exchange pipe;
- and
- a connection member having a first connection pipe connecting the inlet part to the first heat exchange pipe, a second connection pipe connecting the first heat exchange pipe to the second heat exchange pipe, and a third connection pipe connecting the second heat exchange pipe to the outlet part.
