Description:
MULTI OZONE GAS CONNECTOR FOR WASHING MACHINE

Technical Field:

The presented invention relates to a multi-ozone gas coupling apparatus for a washing machine used for the decolorization of textile, fiber, fabric and apparel products.

State of the Art:

Today, ozone gas is used in the removal of colors of textile, fiber, fabric and apparel products and in technical and decorative bleaching processes. Based on this usage, different devices and different process steps can be followed.

Ozone gas is becoming restricted and harmful to use due to its odor and oxidizing properties, both on employees and due to its harmful effects on the environment. The methods used in the existing systems are aimed at eliminating the harmful effects of ozone gas on employees and the environment. In the present invention, ozone gas will be used as a bleaching agent again, together with the fact that it is based on sending the ozone gas received into the process chamber as free oxygen instead of ozone gas by passing it through a special device with a catalytic effect.

The ozonated water in the existing systems is prepared in a tank located outside the washing machine. The prepared ozonated water is injected into the washing machine afterwards. Thus, more than one machine is also processed. This extends the time of the transaction to be performed and increases the cost and labor force because more than one machine is also processed. Therefore, the existing systems are progressing gradually or gradually.

The Utility model application TR200500819 describes Fabric bleaching and disinfection machine. The present invention relates to a machine used for bleaching textile, fiber, fabric and apparel products and denim fabrics, which are defined as denim fabrics. The machine that is the subject of the invention will also be used for the disinfection of alpha toxin and similar toxic substances formed in foodstuffs such as grains, legumes and nuts. The present invention aims to eliminate these harmful effects of ozone gas on employees and the environment. Although ozone gas will be used as a bleaching agent in the present invention, it is based on the principle of sending the ozone gas taken into the process room (rotating cylinder) through a special device with catalytic effect, as free oxygen instead of ozone gas.

The patent application US2008302139 A1 publication describes “Ozone Laundry Systems “. In one system, a tunnel washer system generates ozone and dissolves the ozone in water at various stages of the tunnel washer, such as with a Venturi injector. The ozonated water may be stored and recirculated/re-ozonated to ensure that a desired level of dissolved ozone is present in any water delivered to the various zones of the tunnel washer. The ozonated water provides maximum cleaning efficiency and effectiveness at cooler water temperatures, saving water and energy costs. In some systems, controlled safe application of gaseous and/or dissolved ozone may be made to laundry in a washer. Ozone levels may be monitored and precisely controlled. The application of ozone using some embodiments allows the ozone to treat materials and articles of clothing such as jeans to achieve a desired look and feel, such as an appearance of having been worn.

In the above-mentioned utility model/patent applications, bleaching with ozonated water is discussed. In the applications mentioned, ozonated water is produced in a tank. The ozonated water produced is injected into the washing machine with the help of pumps and sensors. During this injection process, sufficient ozone cannot be mixed into the water in the washing machine. Therefore, yield and efficiency cannot be obtained from the bleaching process. In addition, production times are long due to a gradual progress as more than one machine or system is used. This protracted production phase also leads to increased costs. The fact that ozone cannot mix with water by optimizing correctly also increases the rate of water used. Therefore, problems arise that cause the use of more water than necessary, both the cost and the prolongation of the process time.

As a result, there is a need for a new technology that can overcome the disadvantages mentioned above, does not take the ozonated water from a tank other than the washing machine, works directly with the washing machine, allows the used ozone to be reused by a unit in the washing drum, with a short production time and low cost.

Description of the Invention:

This invention is an improvement made in the color reduction method in the washing machine, which can overcome the disadvantages mentioned above, and its feature is; It does not take the ozonated water from a tank other than the washing machine, works directly with the washing machine, enables the used ozone to be reused by a unit in the washing drum, the production time is short, the cost is low, and the most important feature is that the ozone given from the lower part of the washing drum reaches the optimum point and It is a new technology that accelerates production and reduces the used water rate by more than 50% by giving it from the bottom part. The invention enables the disassembly and assembly of the pipe, the cleaning of the clogged wastes and the replacement of the deteriorated parts. It does this by means of the drum connection and the nipple, sleeve and conical union located at the back of the drum connection. With the help of these parts, the cleaning of the pipe is easily done. The drum connection can also be attached to the right or left of the washing machine. The clogging in the washing drum, the presence of stone or fiber used in it increased the importance of mixing ozone gas with water. For this reason, at least two-headed drum connections (preferably three), which is the subject of the invention, are fixed in such a way that they coincide with the perforated parts of the washing drum that turn the water and take it in. In this fixing process, first of all, optimum points are determined according to the size of the washing drum. The optimum points of the washing drum were determined and fixed on these points. With this process, ozone gas started to mix with water rapidly. With this method, it is ensured that the water used is saved by taking 200 liters of water for 500 liters of water and transferring the ozone into the washing drum from the bottom. Dismantled and stuck

In particular, the invention has provided the efficiency of the pump and tank, which cannot be achieved in existing systems, from inside the washing machine. Thus, cost rates, labor time and time losses are completely eliminated. These advantages allowed more bleaching to be done in a short time.

With the product of the invention, when ozone gas is injected into the water taken into the washing machine, the color reduction of the textile product is made with ozone. Thus, the mixing of the water polluted as a result of the mixing of the dyestuffs left by the textile products into the water with the ozone gas in the water has reduced the color of not only the textile product but also the contaminated water.

It is easy to install due to the easy fixing of the parts that make up the invention, and the costs are low due to the short assembly time. Moreover, the invention has a solid construction. Description of the Figures:
