A Novel Solar Water Heater Cum Water Purifier Cum Air Cooler

Abstract: This invention is a “unified” combination machine of Solar water heater, Solar water purifier, noble-metal-water-purifier, & Solar air cooler, as substantially shown in the accompanying drawings: & it is made up of: (a) a tank-cum-tray holding the water to be heater/treated, (b) a thermal insulation (c) insulation protector, (d) device for allowing the penetration & direct entry of Solar Infra-Red & Ultra-Violet Rays & ALL the other/remaining Rays into the water (e) a device constructed of noble-metal for purifying the water round-the-clock, non-stop, continuous, and, even during night-time & rainy-season when there is “no-Sun”, the water-purification-action goes on; (f) all the above being constructed & installed on top surface of the slab of terrace or roof.

The following Specification particularly describes and ascertains the nature of this invention and the manner in which it is to be performed.

INTRODUCTION:
This invention is about the novel "unified combination" machine of Solar water heater,
water purifier, & air cooler. In this combination machine, the concepts of individual
machine/s of Solar water heater, water purifier, & air cooler are also novel. More
particularly, this invention provides the new, practical, construction(s) of heat-
absorber(s), water purification, & thermal insulation(s):
The new Heat-Absorber employs, for the lst time in the world, the "direct heating"
method This eliminates the "indirect heating" associated with the flat plate panel of the
Conventional Solar water heater, &the like. The heat-absorber also contains "in-built" ie
"unified" container for & of hot water. And so, the new construction eliminates the prior
art water tank provided separately.
The novel construction allows, for the lst time in the world, the DIRECT penetration &
absorption of Sun's UV Rays in the water. This UV-Rays-absorption was not done &
was not possible in any Solar water heater so far.
The Thermal insulation in new machine is "vacuum or air". A well defined block or
volume of vacuum or air wherein this block allows the desired thermal-heat-radiation to
penetrate & reach to eg, water to be heated; but on the other hand the same block of air
blocks or prevents, in the most effective manner, the heat losses from the hot water.
This novel machines creates "air cooler" effect.
PRIOR ART:
Traditionally, the conventional flat plate collector panel Solar water heater has following
two different & main parts: (a) the conventional flat plate south facing collector panel, &
— '2-

(b) hot water container tank. The conventional flat plate collector panel Solar wafer heater is required to be "installed", in northern hemi-sphere of the earth, in such a way that the collector is facing "South". Further, there must be a particular "inclination" of Collector, & there has to be some specific level difference in between the collector & hot-water-storage-tank.
Patents-"SEARCH":
Patents-"SEARCH" was done by this Inventor.
Regarding Patents-"SEARCH" with respect to Solar appliances, there are already few
Patents. The Patent Number/s, the Subject matter/s, & the Name of the Applicant/s is
given below:

All these inventions, however, refer to subjects other than what is proposed in this invention

Further, the Prior Art/s item/s have some drawbacks as mentioned below;
Deficiencies in the prior art
Heat collector Panel & hot water container tank are two different items. The conventional flat plate collector panel Solar water heater is required to be "installed";, in northern hemi-sphere of the earth, in such away that the collector is facing "South". There must be a particular "inclination" of Collector,
There has to be some specific level difference in between the collector & hot-water-storage-tank.
MY INVENTION:
OBJECTS OF MY INVENTION:
Unified construction of Heat collector Panel & hot water container tank
Simple installation anywhere in the world.
Any particular "inclination" of Collector is not necessary.
Any specific level difference in between the collector & hot-water-storage-tank does not
arise due to unified construction.
To get hygienic & healthy water,
To get cool air below the ceiling.
