Valve for use in a water treatment system

摘要

There is disclosed a unique water treatment system which incorporates a unique primary valve. The primary valve comprises an interconnected first part and second part. The first part attaches to a water source and provides untreated water to water treatment units which are controlled by the second part of the primary valve. Untreated water flows to a first water treatment unit and subsequently through a valve to the second part of the primary valve and to use or to a second water treatment unit. From the second water treatment unit the water flows to the second part of the primary valve and to use. The second part of the primary valve has a unique bore and slideable shaft valve structure. The water treatment units can purify the water and/or add substances to the water.

1. A water treatment system, comprising a plurality of water treatment units, and a primary valve, the primary valve comprising a valve body, the valve body having a first part and a second part, the first part and the second part being attached, the first part comprising an inlet for untreated water and an outlet for untreated water, the first part further having a diverter section to allow the untreated water entering the first part to be diverted to a channel connecting to the water treatment units of the water treatment system, the second part comprising an elongated section having at least a first channel and a second channel for receiving treated water from the water treatment units, the second part incorporating a slideable shaft in a bore in the elongated section and a connected outlet for treated water, the slideable shaft connecting at least one of the at least first channel and a second channel to the outlet for treated water, untreated water flows from a channel of the first part of the valve body of the primary valve to a conduit to a first water treatment unit, a treated water flows from the first water treatment unit through a conduit to a secondary valve which flows the treated water to one of a conduit to a second water treatment unit or to a channel input to the second part of the valve body of the primary valve for flow through the second part of the valve body of the primary valve and to the outlet from the second part of the primary valve for subsequent dispensing; when flowed through the conduit to the second water treatment unit the treated water exiting from the second water treatment unit through a conduit and into a channel of the second part of the valve body of the primary valve for subsequent dispensing from the outlet for treated water, wherein the first water treatment unit removes substances from the untreated water and the second water treatment unit adds at least one substance to water from the first treatment unit.
