Abstract

An ozone-water generator comprises a machine body, an ozone generator, a gas-liquid mixer and a light-controlled switch. The machine body is employed for holding the ozone generator, the gas-liquid mixer and the light-controlled switch. The ozone generator is connected to the gas-liquid mixer. The gas-liquid mixer is connected to the light-controlled switch. The light-controlled switch comprises a tube, two circuit boards, a movable valve and an elastic device. The movable valve is forwardly and backwardly shiftable within the tube. When the movable valve is shifted by the force of water current, two light-controlled devices on the respective circuit boards can be electrically conducted to form an electrical signal for actuating the ozone generator and thereby mixing the ozone and the liquid. The movable valve is so extremely light in weight that an extremely small force of water current is sufficient to shift the movable valve.

Claims

1. An ozone-water generator, comprising:

a machine body for holding an ozone generator, a gas-liquid mixer and a light-controlled switch;

said ozone generator connected to said gas-liquid mixer for generating ozone;

said gas-liquid mixer having a first tube, an ozone inlet pipe connector on the lateral of said first tube in a radial direction, a liquid inlet on one end of said first tube in an axial direction, a mixed liquid outlet on the other end of said first tube in said axial direction, said ozone inlet pipe connector being connected to said ozone generator, said liquid inlet being connected to said light-controlled switch; and

said light-controlled switch comprising a second tube, two circuit boards, a movable valve and an elastic device, said second tube having an action region for holding thereon said movable valve, one end of said movable valve being located against one end of said elastic device, the other end of said elastic device being located against the inside of said second tube, said second tube having two corresponding parts on respective opposite sides in an radial direction, said circuit boards being located on the respective outsides of said corresponding parts, said circuit boards having respective light-controlled devices mounted thereon, said light-controlled devices being oppositely disposed on the respective outsides of said corresponding parts.

2. An ozone-water generator of claim 1, wherein said corresponding parts are made of a light-transmitting material.

3. An ozone-water generator of claim 1, wherein said movable valve is made of an opaque material lesser than 30 grams.

4. An ozone-water generator of claim 1, wherein said light-controlled switch further comprises a pad held in said second tube.

5. An ozone-water generator of claim 1, wherein said second tube is made of a light-transmitting material.
