Electrolytic pool purifier

A submerged electrolytic cell pool purifier for sanitizing a pool with the pool water having halide salts and the pool including a piped water circulation system comprising:

• (a) an immersed dielectric enclosure having a top, bottom, front, back and sides with an inlet disposed within a lower portion, and, an outlet provided in a upper portion with said back affixed to the pool under the water level providing a continual flow path for water within the enclosure and a route for the escape of gas generated within,
• (b) a plurality of electrodes spaced equally apart between the sides of said enclosure in a vertical juxtapositioned manner with the pool water freely surrounding the parallel surface,
• (c) a pair of electrical conducting wires, having a first and second end, disposed within a pipe of the pool water circulation system with the first end of each wire connected to a terminal electrode,
• (d) a direct current power supply connected to the second end of said wires such that one of the outermost terminal electrodes receives a flow of electricity forming respectively an anode and an cathode with the pool water acting as an electrolyte the combination producing a sanitizer for sanitizing the pool water, with the gas produced by the process venting through the outlet in the enclosure in the form of bubbles creating a flow of water through the cell, and
• (e) wire egress means having;
• a hollow connected body with a round cavity on one side and a stepped shoulder on the other,
• a flat resilient disc having a pair of bores therethrough urgingly compelled into the cavity of the body with the wires extending snuggly through the hollow body and bores in the disc, for gripping continguous surfaces to create a watertight seal,
• a hollow cap having a downwardly depending shoulder smaller in diameter than the cavity in the body disposed onto the cavity tightly embracing the disc with the wires extending through the hollow portion,
• an o-ring surrounding the stepped shoulder on the body defining a seal when compressed,
• said pool piped water system having a drilled hole in a pipe at a convenient location outside of the pool, the pipe having unrestricted communication to the pool interior, and
• a compression clamp disposed around the pipe having the hole, the body, disc and cap assembled together along with the wires penetrating the drilled hole in the pipe with the shoulder of the body within the hole and the o-ring contiguously engaging the pipe exterior surrounding the hole, the clamp creating as water tight seal as it urgingly compresses the o-ring against the pipe and body also the wires seal by the expansion of the resilient disc against the cap, body cavity and the bores containing the wires creating permanent water tight seal said wire egress means allowing said wires to exit a connecting pipe of the swimming pool in a water-tight manner permitting the purifier to be installed in existing pools independent of the pool system without undue modification thereunto.

• (b) a plurality of electrodes spaced equally apart between the sides of said enclosure in a vertical juxtapositioned manner with the pool water freely surrounding the parallel surfaces,
• (c) a masking grid having a sheet of dielectric material with at least one electrode on at least one end thereof protecting each electrode from contact and preventing electrical leakage,
• (d) a pair of electrical conducting wires, having a first and second end, disposed within a pipe of the pool water circulation system with the first end of each wire connected to a terminal electrode,
• (e) a direct current power supply connected to the second end of said wires such that one of the outermost terminal electrodes receives a flow of electricity forming respectively an anode and an cathode with the pool water acting as an electrolyte the combination producing a sanitizer for sanitizing the pool water, with the gas produced by the process venting through the outlet in the enclosure in the form of bubbles creating a flow of water through the cell, and
• (f) wire egress means allowing said wires to exit a connecting pipe of the swimming pool in a water-tight manner permitting the purifier to be installed in existing pools independent of the pool system without undue modification thereunto.

A submerged electrolytic cell pool purifier for sanitizing a swimming pool with the pool water having the presence of at least 1500 parts per million of halide salts comprising:

• (a) an immersed dielectric enclosure having a top, bottom, front,back and sides with an inlet disposed within a lower portion and, an outlet provided in a upper portion with said back affixed to the pool under the water level providing a continual flow path for water within the enclosure and a route for the escape of gas generated within
• (b) a plurality of electrodes spaced equally apart between the sides of said enclosure in a vertical juxtapositioned manner with the pool water freely surrounding the parallel surfaces,
• (c) a masking grid having a sheet of dielectric material contiguous with each electrode on at least one side thereof protecting each electrode from contact and preventing electrical leakage,
• (d) a pair of electrical conducting wires, having a first and second end, disposed within a dedicated pipe of the pool water circulation system with the first end of each wire connected to an outermost opposite electrode, and
• (e) a direct current power supply connected to the second end of said wires such that one of the outermost electrodes receives a flow of electricity forming respectively an anode and an cathode with the pool water acting as an electrolyte the combination producing hypochlorous acid and sodium hydroxide as well as nascent oxygen for sanitizing the pool water, with the gas produced by the process venting through the outlet in the enclosure in the form of bubbles creating a flow of water through the cell.
