Description

The invention relates to the sanitary industry, intended for carrying out, implemented in manual and/or automatic mode, jet hydromassage procedures both in the hydrotherapy departments of sanatoriums, dispensaries, clinics, spa salons, and in the bathrooms of country houses and residential buildings and is aimed to ensure the possibility of implementation and stability of hydromassage procedures carried out in a bathtub or shower tray, both in manual and automatic modes, with “packages” of water jets of submillimeter diameter, while achieving the maximum water acupuncture effect of varying intensity in different parts of the human body, in conditions of difficulty or impossibility of use water from the mixer tap due to its absence, relatively low flow rate and/or significant contamination with hardness salts and/or possible fluctuations in temperature and/or flow rate, and also, for example, due to its relatively high cost.

There is a known method for carrying out hydromassage procedures of a dynamic type in a household bathtub, including the formation of a jet flow, made in the form of separate “packets” of parallel jets of submillimeter diameter, with the possibility of changing the angle of their attack, and its back-and-forth movement relative to the human body, as well as regulation temperature and flow rate of water supplied from the mixer through a hose, used during hydromassage procedures, the implementation of which uses a multiple number of “packets” of parallel jets (n _p ), starting with n _p ≥3, with the formation of a central or central and outer jet “packages” "are carried out separately in time, and the change in the angle of attack of the "packets" of parallel jets of the jet stream is carried out by changing the angle of inclination of the plane of their reciprocating movement relative to the vertical plane [1].

In this case, when carrying out hydromassage procedures, the outer jet “packages” are first formed, and then the central or central ones.

The disadvantages of this known method are the difficulties, even the impossibility, of its use in conditions of low water flow in the mixing tap and/or significant contamination of the water used with hardness salts and/or possible fluctuations in its temperature and/or flow rate, as well as due to the relatively high cost water, for example, with relatively frequent use (about 3-5 hydromassage procedures per day), with a water consumption of about 20-30 l/min. and duration is about 10-15 minutes. one hydromassage procedure, implemented, in this embodiment, only in superficial form.

In addition, another disadvantage of the known method is the difficulty of regulating the pressure (flow rate) of water jets required for the implementation of hydromassage procedures using mixer tap valves if it is necessary to change one device for forming a jet flow to another, with a different number of nozzle holes, the number of which is in the corresponding jet-forming panels or grids can vary in a fairly wide range from 10-15 to 30-40 or more.

The known solution closest to the claimed one, in terms of technical essence and achieved result, chosen as a prototype, is a method of conducting hydromassage procedures of a dynamic type in a household bathtub, including the formation of jet streams, made in the form of separate “packages” of parallel jets of submillimeter diameter, with the possibility of changing the angle of their attack, and their reciprocating movement relative to the human body, as well as regulation of at least the flow rate of water supplied through the hose used during hydromassage procedures, the implementation of which uses the appropriate number of “packages” of parallel jets (n _p ), while the outlet pipe of the bathtub is connected, either with its spout into the lounger connected to the riser, through a three-way ball valve or a three-way solenoid valve, one of the two outputs of which is connected, directly or through a coarse filter from mechanical impurities, to the inlet of the local pressure systems for pumping water, either directly or through a coarse filter from mechanical impurities with the input of the latter, the output of which, directly or through shut-off and control actuators, is connected, directly or through a fine filter of water purification from mechanical impurities and/or hardness salts, with the input of the disinfection chamber, the output of which, in turn, is connected to the input of the storage tank, with water previously filled into it or accumulated, using appropriate devices connected to the mixer tap for obtaining distilled, desalted or purified water, equipped with a local water supply a pressure system, the output of which is connected by a pipeline through shut-off and control actuators installed on it and hoses with nuts connected to them, with devices used to form jet streams [2].

The disadvantage of this method is the need to place a three-way ball valve or three-way solenoid valve on the outlet pipe connected to the outlet of the bathtub and its spout into the sunbed, which complicates its implementation and may not always be possible, given the different location of the bathtub and the dimensions of the installed devices.

In addition, the presence of a three-way ball valve or a three-way solenoid valve can lead either to leaks of the first due to periodic switching of its handle, or to difficulties in replacing failed ones, both the first and the second.

Other disadvantages of this method are its relatively limited functionality, which does not allow, in particular, to provide various schemes for filtration and disinfection of water drained from the bath, both separate and combined.

In addition, the known method does not allow air massage operations, which also reduces its functionality.

Finally, the known method does not allow for long-term operation of the devices used to form jet streams when using water from the main pipeline due to the increased likelihood of clogging their nozzle holes in the submillimeter range with water hardness salts, especially in regions with poor water quality, since it does not provide for removal operations residual water from them after the end of hydromassage procedures.

The new technical result is to simplify implementation, increase reliability and expand functionality.

This is achieved by the fact that in the method of conducting hydromassage procedures of a dynamic type, implemented in a bathtub, including the formation of jet streams in the form of separate “packets” of jets of submillimeter diameter, and their reciprocating movement relative to the human body, as well as regulation of the flow rate of water supplied through the hose, used when carrying out hydromassage procedures in a bathtub, the outlet of which is connected to its spout into a sun lounger connected to the riser, the use of a local pressure system, the output of which is connected to a fine water filter, as well as the use of a storage tank with water pre-filled into it, equipped with a local water supply a pressure system, the outlet of which is connected by a pipeline through shut-off and control valves installed on it and hoses connected to them with devices used to form jet streams, according to the invention, the bath is made with an additional outlet connected during hydromassage procedures to the input of the local pressure system for pumping out water from the bathtub when its first outlet is closed during hydromassage procedures, while in the periodic mode of hydromassage procedures, the outlet of the fine water filter is connected through a shut-off and control valve to the storage tank, and in the constant mode of hydromassage procedures, the outlet of the fine filter water through a shut-off and control valve is connected through a check valve to the input of the disinfection chamber, which is also connected through the input of a three-way ball valve to the output of the local pressure system of the storage tank, and the first output of the three-way ball valve is connected to the input of the three-way ball valve, the second output of which is connected to the tank -accumulator, and its first output is connected either to the inputs of three-way ball valves, the second outputs of which are directed into the bath, and their first outputs are connected to the devices used to form jet streams, or to the first output of a three-way ball valve, the second output of which is connected to the output of an oil-free blower , and the input is connected to the inputs of three-way ball valves, the second outputs of which are directed into the bath, and their first outputs are connected to the devices used to form jet streams.

In this case, the performance of the local pressure system for pumping water from the bath (Q _OV ) is selected from the ratio:

where Q _PV is the productivity of the local pressure system for supplying water to devices for forming jet streams, m ³ /hour.

As devices for switching bathtub outlets, a rubber or silicone plug or automatic plug with an opening and closing mechanism is used.

And the additional outlet of the bath is connected to an adapter in the form of an angle with a fitting connected by a hose to the inlet fitting of the local pressure system for pumping water out of the bath.

Moreover, each of the local pressure systems is made in the form of an electric pump unit, equipped with a protection device against starting it at “idle” speed.

And as a fine water filter, a filter is used to remove mechanical impurities and hardness salts.

In this case, the storage tank used is equipped with a water heater, a thermostat and a regulator or level indicator.

A comparative analysis with the prototype shows that the inventive method makes it possible to simplify the implementation and increase the reliability of the connection during hydromassage procedures, releasing a bathtub with the input of a local pressure system for pumping out water.

In addition, the proposed method is distinguished by expanded functionality, which makes it possible, in particular, to provide, depending on the frequency of hydromassage procedures, various schemes for filtration and disinfection of water drained from the bath, both separate and combined.

In addition, the inventive method allows for air massage operations.

Finally, the inventive method makes it possible to ensure long-term operation of the devices used to form jet streams when using water from the main pipeline, especially in regions with poor quality, since it involves operations to remove residual water from them with compressed air after hydromassage procedures are completed.

Thus, the proposed method meets the invention criterion of “novelty”.

A comparison of the proposed solution not only with the prototype, but also with other technical solutions in other fields of technology has shown that there is a known method for conducting hydromassage procedures of a dynamic type in a household bathtub, including the formation of jet streams in the form of at least one or formed of two located at an angle to each other, lines of at least one- or two-row parallel jets and their automatic movement in the vertical plane relative to the human body, carried out, respectively, using jet-forming panels with holes of a conoidal profile of the corresponding elements of the formation of jet streams and a reciprocating device movement, made in the form of a rack with the possibility of both lateral and end placement between the upper frame of the bathtub and the ceiling of the bathroom, made with a through groove containing a toothed belt or an endless chain, moving along two toothed ones fixed in the upper and lower parts of the rack in bearings wheels, the axis of one of which is directly or through a gearbox connected to a reversible motor, which provides, after setting the processing zone, speed, time and/or the number of reciprocating movements using an automatic control unit and/or corresponding sensors for the size of the processing zone, moved along the corresponding guide, reciprocating movements of the switching element, made in the form of a T-shaped device, the horizontal section of which contains mounting holes for a detachable joint, through a connecting element, with a toothed belt or an endless chain in the rack of the reciprocating movement device, and is equipped with rollers, moving in the grooves of at least one guide placed in the rack, which serves to dampen possible lateral and end vibrations, and the vertical section of the switching element is made in the form of permanently or detachably articulated directly or through an intermediate connecting element with the horizontal section of the switching element, respectively, plates moved in the through groove of the rack - for the case of the side option of placing the rack in a household bathtub or the vertical section of a T-shaped element - for the case of the end option of placing the rack in a household bathtub with the corresponding holes used for installation, through fixed in the holes made in the form clamps, fixing elements, a device for forming jet streams, including a manifold with elements for generating jet streams installed on it and a device for supplying water, made in the form of a detachable coupling connected in series with one end of the collector pipe and a combined angle with a threaded element for connecting a nut supplying water from the hose mixer tap [3].

The disadvantages of this method are also the difficulties, even the impossibility, of its use in conditions of low water flow in the mixer tap and/or significant contamination of the water used with hardness salts and/or possible fluctuations in its temperature and/or flow.

In addition, another disadvantage of the known method is the difficulty of regulating the pressure (flow rate) of water jets required for the implementation of hydromassage procedures using mixer tap valves if it is necessary to change one device for forming a jet stream to another, with a different number of nozzle holes, the number of which in the corresponding flow-forming panels or meshes can vary in a fairly wide range from 10-15 to 30-40 or more.

This allows us to conclude that the proposed technical solution meets the “significant differences” criterion.

In fig. Figure 1 shows a variant of an installation that implements the proposed method with separate (filtration and disinfection) treatment of water drained from the bath/tray.

In fig. Figure 2 shows a variant of an installation that implements the proposed method with combined (filtration and disinfection) treatment of water drained from the bath/tray.

In fig. Figure 3 shows a variant of the installation that implements the proposed method with combined (filtration and disinfection) treatment of water drained from the bath/tray and the possibility of carrying out aeromassage procedures and/or removing residual water from the used devices for forming jet streams (UFSP) with compressed air.

A device that implements the proposed method, depending on the separate (filtration and disinfection) or combined treatment of water drained from the bath/tray, including the supply of compressed air, is respectively shown in Fig. 1, 2 and 3 contains a shower tray (not shown in Fig. 1-3) or a bathtub (not indicated in Fig. 1-3), the first outlet 1 of which is connected to its spout (not indicated in Fig. 1-3) in a sun lounger connected to a riser (not shown in Fig. 1-3), and the second outlet 2 of the bathtub, equipped with a plug 3 (in this case), is connected through an angle with a fitting (not indicated in Fig. 1-3), directly, in this case, connected by a hose to the inlet fitting of the local pressure system (LPS) 4 pumping out water, the output of which is connected to the input of the fine water filter 5, the output of which, through a shut-off and control valve (not indicated in Fig. 1-3), is connected :

- for periodic hydromassage procedures (for example, in a country house, with a small family living) - with a storage tank 6 equipped with a thermostat, a heater and a level indicator (not indicated in Fig. 1-3);

- with a constant mode of hydromassage procedures (for example, in the hydrotherapy departments of sanatoriums, dispensaries, clinics, spa salons) - with the entrance (through a check valve, in this case, not indicated in Fig. 1-3) of the disinfection chamber 7, the exit of which connected to storage tank 6, equipped with a thermostat, heater and level indicator (not indicated in Fig. 1-3).

In this case, the output of the local pressure system 8 of the storage tank 6, through a shut-off valve (not indicated in Fig. 1-3) is connected to the input (index 3) of the three-way ball valve 9, the first output of which (index 1) is connected to the input (index 3 ) three-way ball valve 10, the second output (index 2) of which is connected to the storage tank 6, and its first output (index 1) is connected to the inputs (index 3) of three-way ball valves 11, 12, the second outputs of which are directed into the bath, and their first outputs are connected to the devices 13, 14 used for the formation of jet streams, moved manually or using a rack 15 located on the end wall of the bathroom, equipped with a mechanism for reciprocating movement of the devices 13, 14 relative to the human body, installed in a rigidly connected to the mechanism carriage reciprocating movement (not indicated in Fig. 1-3) by holder 16 and, for example, setters of the jet-dynamic processing zone (not indicated in Fig. 1-3).

And the second output (index 2) of the three-way ball valve 9 is connected:

- for periodic hydromassage procedures (for example, in a country house, with a small family living) - with chamber entrance 7;

- with a constant regime of hydromassage procedures (for example, in hydrotherapy departments of sanatoriums, dispensaries, clinics, spa salons) - with an entrance (through a check valve, in this case, not indicated in Fig. 1-3) of the disinfection chamber 7.

Moreover, in the latter case, the output of the local pressure system 8 of the storage tank 6 is connected to the devices 11, 12 used for the formation of jet flows and through a three-way ball valve 17, the first output of which is connected to the first output of the three-way ball valve 10, the second output of which is connected to the tank - accumulator 6, and the second output of the three-way ball valve 17 is connected to the output of the oil-free blower 18.

In general, the implementation of the proposed method in a bath by devices 13, 14 for the formation of jet streams (UFSP), with different widths of the jetting zone and a different number of nozzle holes, occurs as follows.

Before starting work, sequentially perform:

- pouring clean (for example, desalted or distilled) water into the storage tank 6 in a volume (about 50-70 liters), controlling its volume using the level indicator (H), in this case;

- heating water, using a heater and thermostat, to the required temperature (usually not higher than 40°C);

- placing in the holder 16, rigidly connected to the reciprocating movement mechanism located in the lower position of the carriage, a device 14 (in this case) for forming jet streams;

- setting, if necessary, the automatic movement of the UVSP, the required height of the jet-dynamic processing zone, implemented either using jetting zone setters moved along the guide and fixed on it (not indicated in Fig. 1-3), or automatically, by manual movement the carriage to the value of its maximum lift and automatic transmission of this information to the control unit (not shown in Fig. 1-3);

- closing with a plug 3 (for example, silicone) the first outlet 1, which is connected to the bathtub spout (not indicated in Fig. 1-3) into the lounger connected to the riser (not shown in Fig. 1-3), and opening, as a result removing the plug 3, the second outlet 2 of the bath, connected (directly, in this case), through an angle with a fitting and a hose, to the input of the local pressure system (LPS) 4 pumping out water, the output of which is connected to the input of the fine water filter 5, the output of which , through a shut-off and control valve (not indicated in Fig. 1-3), connected either directly to the storage tank 6 (see Fig. 1), during periodic hydromassage procedures, or to the inlet (via a check valve, in this case, not indicated in Fig. 2, 3) disinfection chamber 7, the output of which is connected to the storage tank 6 (at a relatively constant mode of hydromassage procedures).

Next, in order to set the required water flow rate for hydromassage procedures with a water acupuncture effect, with different treatment zones and the number of nozzle holes in the UVSP 13 jet-forming panels and UVSP 14 meshes, the following are sequentially produced:

- moving the handle of the valve 10 to the middle position, for example, thereby ensuring bypass of the flow of water flowing through the open, in the direction 3-1, ball valve 9, from the LNS 8;

- transferring the handle of the crane 12 to the top, shown in Fig. 1-3, position, thereby ensuring the connection of the first output (index 1) of the ball valve 10, through the open, in direction 3-1, ball valve 12, with the input of the UVSP 14;

- turning on the LNS 8, thereby supplying water heated in the storage tank 6 to the UVSP 14 and, by turning the handle of the tap 10, regulating the flow and, as a consequence, the force of the impact of the water jets on the human body, while part of the flow, if the speed of the jets in the flow exceeds the permissible for the corresponding part of the human body due to the small number of holes in the corresponding UVSP14 mesh, it is sent to the storage tank 6;

- switching on, including with a delay or, for example, based on a signal from a water presence sensor, LNS 4 and pumping water from the bath through a fine water filter 5. Moreover, the performance of LNS 4 for pumping water from the bath (Q _OV ) is selected from the ratio:

where Q _PV is the productivity of LNS 8 for supplying water to the UVSP, m ³ /hour.

In this case, during the periodic mode of hydromassage procedures, the water pumped out from the bath, through a control valve, in this case, enters the storage tank 6, for its subsequent recycling using the LNS 8.

And with a constant mode of hydromassage procedures, at the same time the supply voltage is supplied to the ultraviolet radiation lamps located in quartz cases in the disinfection chamber 7 (not indicated in Fig. 1-3) from the control panel through the ballasts (not shown in Fig. 1-3 ) and the water pumped out from the bath, through a control valve, in this case, enters through a check valve, in this case, to the inlet of the disinfection chamber 7, from the outlet of which water, subjected to ultraviolet treatment, enters the storage tank 6, for its subsequent recycling using LNS 8.

Next, having closed the screen curtain (to prevent splashes of water from entering outside the volume of the bathtub or shower tray), they proceed directly to carrying out hydromassage procedures for the human body using jet streams with the required jet speed, implemented, in this case, by UVSP 14, by turning on the mechanism back - its translational movement in the rack 15, after which the LNS 8 is turned off, thereby stopping the water supply to the UVSP 14.

Then, sequentially produced:

- forced or automatic, due to lack of water, shutdown of LNS 4, thereby stopping the pumping of water from the bathtub (shower tray);

- removing UVSP 14 from the holder 16 of the rack 15 and installing it in the holder (not indicated in Fig. 1-3), mounted on the wall of the bathroom;

- moving the handle of faucet 12 to the lower position, thereby ensuring the connection of its input (index 1) with its second outlet (index 2) to drain water from UVSP 14 and the hose connected to it into the bathtub/tray;

- removing UVSP 13 from the holder (not indicated in Fig. 1-3) mounted on the wall of the bathroom and installing it in the holder 16 of the rack 15;

- moving the handle of faucet 11 to the upper position, thereby ensuring the connection of its first output (index 1) with its input (index 3), connecting UVSP 13 to the first output (index 1) of faucet 10, the input of which (index 3) is connected with the first output (index 1) of valve 9, the input of which (index 3) is connected to the output of LNS 8;

- repeated, in this case, turning on the LNS 8, thereby supplying water to the UVSP 13 and realizing the formation of two (in this case) “packages” of jets of an extended shape, implemented by the corresponding nozzles, made with the possibility of change, using detachable couplings (on Fig. 1-3 are not marked), angle of attack;

- turning on the mechanism for reciprocating movement of UVSP 13 in the rack 15 and carrying out hydromassage procedures on the human body using extended (in this case) jet streams, after which the LNS 8 is turned off, thereby stopping the supply of water to UVSP 13.

Then, sequentially produced:

- forced or automatic, including with a delay or, for example, based on a signal from a water presence sensor, turning off the LNS 4, thereby stopping the pumping of water from the bathtub (shower tray);

- removing UVSP 13 from the holder 16 of the rack 15 and installing it in the holder (not indicated in Fig. 1-3), mounted on the wall of the bathroom;

- moving the handle of faucet 11 to the lower position, thereby ensuring the connection of its input (index 1) with its second outlet (index 2) to drain water from UVSP 13 and the hose connected to it into the bathtub/tray.

In addition, in particular, with a constant mode of hydromassage procedures, it is possible to carry out aeromassage procedures and/or remove residual water from the used jet stream formation devices (UFSP) with compressed air, for which the handle of an additionally installed ball valve 17 (see Fig. 3 ), the first output (index 1) of which is connected to the first output (index 1) of tap 10, and the input (index 3) is connected to the inputs (index 3) of taps 11, 12, is transferred to direction 3-2, thereby ensuring supply of compressed air to UVSP 13, 14 from the blower 18 during their automatic or manual movement relative to the human body.

Moreover, this operation makes it possible to ensure long-term operation of devices for forming jet streams 13, 14 when using water from the main pipeline, especially in regions with poor quality, since it involves operations to remove residual water from them with compressed air after hydromassage procedures are completed

After completing the procedures described above, opening the curtain and removing the user, the device implementing the proposed method is ready to carry out new hydromassage procedures, implemented without draining water into the bathtub bed connected to the riser.

In this case, after completion of the latter, the handle of the valve 9 is moved in the direction 3-2, thereby ensuring the connection, directly (Fig. 1) or through a check valve (Fig. 2, 3), of the output of the LNS 8 to the input of the device 7, thereby ensuring, after turning on the LNS 8 and supplying power to the ultraviolet lamps in chamber 7, where the water is exposed to ultraviolet irradiation, which ensures the inactivation of all microorganisms in the water: viruses, bacteria and their spores, etc., additional disinfection of the water in the tank 6 by recycling it: chamber output 7 - tank 6 - LNS input 8 - tap 9 - chamber input 7.

If it is necessary to take conventional water procedures used for washing the body, for example, in the bathroom of a country house or residential building, using the appropriate outlet of the mixer tap and shower head, move (in this case) the plug 3 (for example, silicone) from the first outlet 1 into the second outlet 2 of the bathtub, thereby ensuring the connection of the bathtub with its spout (not indicated in Fig. 1-3) into a lounger connected to the riser (not shown in Fig. 1-3), and closing of the second outlet 2 bath connected (directly, in this case) to the input of the local pressure system (LPS) pumping out water 4.

Thus, the proposed method of conducting hydromassage procedures of a dynamic type, implemented in the bathtub, in comparison with the known one chosen as a prototype, allows:

- simplify the implementation and increase the reliability of connecting the bath outlet with the input of the local pressure system for pumping out water;

- expand the functionality, allowing, in particular, to provide, depending on the frequency of hydromassage procedures, various schemes for filtration and disinfection of water drained from the bath, both separate and combined, as well as to carry out air massage operations;

- ensure long-term operation of the devices used to form jet streams when using water from the main pipeline, especially in regions with poor quality, since it involves operations to remove residual water from them with compressed air after the end of hydromassage procedures, which also expands its functionality.

The implementation of the proposed method does not encounter any fundamental difficulties.

Thus, a bathtub or shower tray with two outlets can be made, for example, from acrylic from Roltechnik, or from artificial stone from Polymer (Saratov) or cast marble based on an individual order.

Electric pumping units can be used as local pressure systems, for example, with a magnetic coupling, designed for a capacity of 1.8 - 3.6 m ³ / hour, at a pressure of 20 meters, equipped with a protection system against starting at idle speed, designed in the form , for example, a contact level sensor or a pressure sensor connected to a corresponding device located in the automatic control unit that provides permission to turn on, in the presence of water or its pressure, the corresponding electric pump unit.

And as actuators for switching water flows, three-way ball valves in a waterproof design, as well as check valves with a corresponding nominal diameter, made of polypropylene, can be used.

As devices for forming jet streams (UFSP) in the device, it is advisable to use the Alekseev Shower hydromassage, manufactured by the company Hydriatica LLC (Penza), the jet-forming mesh of which is made using nozzle holes of a conoidal profile and outlet diameters of the submillimeter range (0.6 -0.8 mm).

And jet-forming UVSP panels of extended shape can be manufactured according to RF patent No. 2046685 with the structure of nozzle holes formed in accordance with RF patent No. 2296672, using appropriate thermoplastic material (polystyrene, ABC - plastic or polypropylene), molds and equipment, for example, an injection molding machine like ARBURG - A 270-21-500.

As a coarse filter, a mesh filter (for example, a coupling filter with a drain valve) with a nominal diameter, for example 15-20 mm from SOCLA (France), can be used.

And as filters for fine purification of water from mechanical impurities and hardness salts, they can be used as filters with self-cleaning (implemented, for example, by counterflow of water from a mixer tap, subsequent drainage into the bath and removal through a three-way ball valve 1 open in direction 1-3) , in particular, the F76 series from Honeywell or Sphinx-07, produced in Russia, as well as cartridge filters with replaceable filter elements, including those used to remove calcium and magnesium salts, for example, produced by PENTEK.

A stainless steel SUCCESS bulk water heater with a capacity of 50 to 100 liters with temperature control from 40°C, or a heated plastic barrel from VKS Therm can be used as a storage tank.

Moreover, depending on the version of the rack, the power supply for its reversible motor can be supplied both from an AC-to-DC voltage converter located outside the room or processing area, and from a battery placed directly in the rack for reciprocating movement of devices for forming jet streams.

As water treatment devices in the disinfection chamber, ultraviolet radiation lamps placed in quartz covers are used, the operation of which is controlled from a control panel through starting and control equipment that are part of water disinfection systems produced by NPO "LIT", Moscow.

Comparison of the technical characteristics and functionality of the proposed method with domestic and foreign methods of similar purposes, in conditions of difficulty or impossibility of using water from a mixer tap due to its relatively low consumption and/or significant contamination with hardness salts and/or possible fluctuations in its temperature and/or consumption, indicate the guaranteed achievement and objective need to implement the new technical solutions presented in the invention.
