摘要:
A water supply apparatus includes an apparatus body disposed in a flow passage for sucking water to an indoor facility and a power generation unit installed in the apparatus body. Further, the power generation unit further comprises a rotating shaft extended in a direction perpendicular to the water channel direction of the flow passage, and impeller installed on the rotating shaft and rotated by a water flow, a magnet rotated interlockingly with the impeller, and a coil arranged oppositely to the magnet, wherein the impeller forms blades in the radial outer direction and forms clearances allowing water to pass to the inside of the blades. Since the clearances are formed between the blades and the rotating shaft such a trouble that water flowing into the base ends of the blades obstructs the rotation of the impeller can be eliminated to increase a power generation amount by the power generation unit. In addition, since there is no need to expand the flow passage on the outside of the impeller to reduce the rotational resistance of the impeller, the size of the water supply apparatus can be reduced.

A water supply apparatus includes an apparatus body (6) disposed in a flow passage (14) for sucking water to an indoor facility and a power generation unit (23) installed in the apparatus body. Further, the power generation unit further comprises a rotating shaft (34) extended in a direction perpendicular to the water channel direction of the flow passage, an impeller (27) installed on the rotating shaft and rotated by a water flow, a magnet (43) rotated interlockingly with the impeller, and a coil (29) arranged oppositely to the magnet, wherein the impeller forms blades (38) in the radial outer direction and forms clearances (40) allowing water to pass to the inside of the blades. Since the clearances (40) are formed between the blades (38) and the rotating shaft (34), such a trouble that water flowing into the base ends of the blades obstructs the rotation of the impeller can be eliminated to increase a power generation amount by the power generation unit. In addition, since there is no need to expand the flow passage on the outside of the impeller to reduce the rotational resistance of the impeller, the size of the water supply apparatus can be reduced.

A method of producing an electrolyte membrane for use in a fuel cell, including: performing radiation-induced graft polymerization of a vinyl monomer having a nucleophilic functional group selected from an acylvinyl ether derivative, a styrene derivative, and a methacrylic acid derivative, with a polymer substrate having a fluorine-containing polymer, an olefin-containing polymer, or an aromatic polymer; deprotecting an ester bond of a graft chain on the polymer substrate introduced by the radiation-induced graft polymerization; and introducing an alkylethersulfonic acid structure into the nucleophilic functional group of the graft chain thus deprotected, by use of an electrophilic reagent selected from cyclic sulfonic acid ester and alkylhalide sulfonate.

A motor includes a motor section and an amplifier section. The motor section and the amplifier section are electrically and mechanically connected with each other via a wire connection base using a screw. A pitch diameter for a plurality of electrical connection parts of the wire connection base with the motor section disposed on a circumference whose center is at a shaft center of the rotating shaft is set to be smaller than a pitch diameter for a plurality of electrical and mechanical connection parts with the amplifier section. The amplifier section includes a plurality of circuit substrates disposed in a layered form in a direction perpendicular to the rotating shaft, and the plurality of circuit substrates are electrically and mechanically screw-fastened to the plurality of electrical and mechanical connection parts of the wire connection base with the amplifier section via a conductive spacer.

An electrolyzer for producing alkaline and/or acidic water by way of electrolysis of water. In order to remove scale such as calcium carbonate deposited on the electrodes of the electrolytic cell (36) during electrolysis, the control unit (166) operates a polarity reversal switch (186) at a predetermined timing to reverse the electric potential applied to the electrodes of the electrolytic cell (36). The control unit (166) includes means (190/192) for detecting the hardness of water and varies the duration of application of DC voltage of opposite polarity in accordance with the hardness of water. Hardness of water is preferably determined by detecting the electric conductivity of water. Time required for removal of scale is shortened.

A flush valve device 20 of a flush toilet includes a flush valve body 22 connected to a city water source and an operation unit 50. The operation unit 50 has an operation button 63 and a flexible inner cable 71, which is part of a cable mechanism 70. The inner cable 71 is extended from a rear side to a lateral side of a toilet body 12 and is linked with the operation button 63. In response to a press of the operation button 63, the flush valve body 22 opens to make a supply of washing water flown into the toilet body 12. This arrangement desirably increases the degree of freedom in positioning of the flush valve body and the operation unit, enhances the operability of the flush valve device 20, and effectively facilitates installation of the flush valve device 20.
