(14) In this state, when an oxygenated water generation switch 201a is touched and turned on, the fluid pump 210 operates and forcibly suctions the drink in the portable drink bottle 10 through a water suction hole 112 formed in the nozzle 110 of the drink bottle cap 100, the drink is sent into the fluid pump 210 through a first connection pipe 11 and a Y-shaped tube 12, and then the drink is injected back into the drink bottle 10 through a second connection pipe 13 and an oxygen outlet hole 111 formed in the nozzle 110 of the drink bottle cap 100, whereby the drink is continuously circulated.

(15) Further, when the drink is circulated, the oxygen generator 220 that is supplied with mineral water from a mineral water bottle 300 for oxygen generation separately mounted on a side of the oxygenated water manufacturing device body 200 continuously generates oxygen, and the oxygen is filtered through a filter and then sent to the fluid pump 210.

(16) Further, high-purity oxygen, which is sent through the oxygen generator 220.fwdarw.the filter.fwdarw.the fluid pump 210 by the operation of the oxygen generator 220 that is supplied with mineral water from the separate mineral water bottle 300, is continuously supplied to the drink repeatedly circulating through the drink bottle 10.fwdarw.the fluid pump 210.fwdarw.the drink bottle 10 by the operation of the fluid pump 210, so the drink mixed with the oxygen is discharged through the second connection pipe 13 and the oxygen outlet hole 111 formed in the nozzle 110 of the drink bottle cap 100, whereby oxygenated water with high-purify oxygen dissolved therein is produced in the portable drink bottle 10.

(17) In this configuration, the oxygen generator 220 is supplied with mineral water from the mineral water bottle 300 for oxygen generation or purified water filled in the mineral water bottle 300 detachably mounted on a side of the oxygenated water manufacturing device body 200.

(18) The mineral water or purified water in the mineral water bottle 300 can be supplied by selective control of a solenoid valve 320 in response to a water level sensing signal from a water level sensor 221 disposed in the oxygen generator 220.

(19) The mineral water bottle 300 separately mounted is manufactured to be transparent so that whether there is remaining mineral water can be visually checked.

(20) Further, the filter that filters the oxygen generated by the oxygen generator 220 may include:

(21) a wet-type ozone removable filter 222 that is made of carbon, is integrally mounted on the top of the oxygen generator 220, primarily filters out, in a wet type, ozone, which is produced with oxygen when mineral water is electrolyzed, and various inorganic substances and organic substances such as calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), and silicon (Si) contained in the mineral water, and then discharges the oxygen through an oxygen outlet 220a; and

(22) a dry-type ozone removal filter 223 that is made of carbon, is connected to the oxygen outlet 220a, and secondarily completely filters out ozone so that high-purity oxygen is produced.

(23) Further, a hydrogen outlet 220b connected to the bottom of the oxygen generator 220 is connected to a sponge case 400 having sponge 410 therein and disposed at the upper portion of a side of the oxygen generator 220 so that water always collects in the hydrogen outlet 220b.

(24) Accordingly, it is possible to completely prevent a phenomenon in which oxygen is not generated by deformation of an ion resin membrane disposed between an anode (+) and a cathode (−) in the oxygen generator 220 due to a water-drying phenomenon at the hydrogen outlet 220b.

(25) Further, according to the present invention, a common analog or digital polarity switch that can supply power to the oxygen generator 220 in the oxygenated water manufacturing device body 200 and can switch +/− polarities is connected to the oxygen generator 220.

(26) Further, an ozone removable filter made of carbon is further disposed at the hydrogen outlet 220b of the oxygen generator 220.

(27) Accordingly, it is possible to selectively produce not only oxygenated water, but also hydrogen water using a single device.

(28) The operation state of the oxygenated water manufacturing device of the present invention is described hereafter.

(29) In order to produce oxygenated water using the oxygenated water manufacturing device of the present invention, first, the mineral water bottle 300 for oxygen generation fully filled with mineral water or purified water is mounted on a mineral water bottle-fixing bracket 310 formed on a side of the oxygenated water manufacturing device body 200 in order to be able to supply mineral water or purified water for oxygen generation to the oxygen generator 220.

(30) Next, the drink bottle cap 100 is fastened and fixed by thread-fastening the drink water bottle mouth coupler 101 formed at the drink bottle cap 100 to the mouth of the portable drink bottle 10 filled with various drinks (e.g., mineral water, purified water, tap water, barley tea, corn silk tea, green tea, and soju).

(31) Accordingly, the lower portion of the nozzle 110 elongated downward from the drink bottle cap 100 sinks in the drink, and the oxygen outlet hole 111 and the water suction hole 112 formed at the lower portion of the nozzle 110 also sink in the drink.

(32) In this state, the drink bottle cap 100 coupled to the portable drink bottle 10 needs to be fastened and fixed to a drink bottle cap coupler 230 formed on the bottom of a protrusive head 200a of the oxygenated water manufacturing device body 200. To this end, as an embodiment of the present invention, a fastening protrusion 102 of the drink bottle cap 100 is inserted and rotated in a cap fastening groove 231 of the drink bottle cap coupler 230, whereby the drink bottle cap 100 is coupled to the drink bottle cap coupler 230.

(33) Further, a nozzle cap 120 made of silicon and having an oxygen supply channel 120a and a water discharge channel 120b is disposed at the center of the top of the drink bottle cap 100.

(34) Further, a nozzle cap retainer 232 made of silicon and having an oxygen supply channel 232a and a water discharge channel 232b is disposed on the top of the inlet of the drink bottle cap coupler 230, so the top of the nozzle cap 120 is brought in close contact with the bottom of the nozzle cap retainer 232, and the oxygen supply channel 120a and the water discharge channel 120b formed in the nozzle cap 120 are naturally respectively connected to the oxygen supply channel 121a and the water discharge channel 232b formed in the nozzle cap retainer 232, whereby drink and oxygen can move.

(35) Meanwhile, according to the present invention, the drink bottle cap 100 is coupled to the drink bottle cap coupler 230 and then the drink bottle 10 can be coupled to the drink bottle cap 100.

(36) After the portable drink bottle 10 is connected to the oxygenated water manufacturing device body 200 in this way described above,

(37) when a user touches and turns on the oxygenated water generation switch 201a disposed on the main board 201, the device operates for several set minutes and oxygenated water is produced in the portable drink bottle 10.

(38) That is, the fluid pump 210 operates and forcibly suctions the drink in the portable drink bottle 10 through the water suction hole 112 formed in the nozzle 110 of the drink bottle cap 100, the drink is sent into oxygenated water manufacturing device body 200, in detail, into the fluid pump 210 through the first connection pipe 11 and the Y-shaped tube 12, and then the drink is injected back into the drink bottle 10 through the second connection pipe 13 and an oxygen outlet hole 111 formed in the nozzle 110 of the drink bottle cap 100, whereby the drink is continuously circulated.

(39) Further, when the drink is circulated by the operation of the fluid pump 210, the oxygen generator 220 operates and generates oxygen by electrolyzing water, the generated oxygen passes through the wet-type ozone removal filter 222 made of carbon and integrally mounted on the oxygen generator 220 by operation of an air solenoid valve 224, and in this process, ozone generated with the oxygen when mineral water is electrolyzed and various inorganic substances and organic substances such as calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), and silicon (Si) contained in the mineral water are primarily filtered out in a wet type, and then specifically ozone is secondarily completely filtered out in a dry type while the oxygen passes through the dry-type ozone removal filter 223 through the oxygen outlet 220a, whereby high-purity oxygen is continuously produced.

(40) Further, the high-purity oxygen produced in this way moves to the air solenoid valve 224 through a third connection pipe 14, and is then sent to the Y-shaped tube 12 through a fourth connection pipe 15 and then sent to the fluid pump 210 through the Y-shaped tube 12.

(41) Accordingly, high-purity oxygen, which is sent through the oxygen generator 220 the wet-type ozone removal filter 222.fwdarw.the dry-type ozone removal filter 223.fwdarw.the fluid pump 210 by the operation of the oxygen generator 220 that is supplied with mineral water directly from the separate mineral water bottle 300, is continuously supplied to the drink repeatedly circulating through the drink bottle 10.fwdarw.the fluid pump 210.fwdarw.the drink bottle 10 by the operation of the fluid pump 210, so the drink mixed with the oxygen is discharged through the second connection pipe 13 and the oxygen outlet hole 111 formed in the nozzle 110 of the drink bottle cap 100.

(42) Accordingly, oxygen is continuously supplied into the drink bottle 10 and dissolved in the drink, so oxygenated water is very simply and directly produced in the portable drink bottle 10.

(43) Therefore, by using the oxygenated water manufacturing device of the present invention, high-purity oxygen is supplied conveniently anytime to various drink in the portable drink bottle 10, so, depending on the kinds of drinks in the drink bottle 10, for example, oxygenated water is simply, quickly, and completely produced when the drink is mineral water, purified water, tap water, or barley tea, and oxygenated soju containing a large amount of oxygen is also simply, quickly, and completely produced when the drink is soju.

(44) Further, since the oxygenated water manufacturing device body is equipped with an analog or digital polarity switch that can alternately supply +/− polarities to a power supply line that supplies power to the oxygen/hydrogen generator, it is possible to selectively produce oxygenated water or hydrogen water using a single device.

(45) Therefore, according to the present invention, a user can anytime produce drinkable water with high-purity oxygen or hydrogen in a portable bottle filled with not only a drink that the user has selected, that is, mineral water or purified water, but also other various drinks such as tap water, barley tea, green tea, corn silk tea, and soju, and can drink the drinkable water, so the user can supply not only fresh oxygen, but also hydrogen to the body while drinking desired drinks, thereby being able to remove reactive oxygen species or active carbon, which are harmful to the body, and lead a healthy life.

(46) Although the present disclosure was described with reference to limited exemplary embodiments and drawings, the present disclosure is not limited thereto and may be changed and modified in various ways within the spirit of the present disclosure and claims described below by those skilled in the art.

(49) Meanwhile, it is possible to completely prevent the phenomenon in which oxygen generation efficiency is deteriorated or oxygen is never generated due to deformation of the ion resin membrane disposed between the anode and the cathode in the oxygen generator by a water-drying phenomenon in the hydrogen outlet connected to the bottom of the oxygen generator.

(50) The present invention is expected to be able to be used not only in the haircut and beauty field that removes reactive oxygen species, but also various drink fields because it can be freely used for various materials such as not only mineral water and purified water, but also other various drinks including tap water, barley tea, green tea, corn silk tea, and soju.
