It is understood that the water heater provided with an integrated composite tube according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a hot water pipe 100 and a heating tube 200.

The hot water pipe 100 has a flow path formed in one direction and may serve as a passage through which water flows from a water supply source such as a water supply pipe or a bottle of water.

The heating tube 200 is in contact with the hot water pipe 100 along the longitudinal direction of the hot water pipe 100, the water flowing in the hot water pipe 100 while heating the hot water pipe 100 by the energy supplied from the outside. It is heating.

Here, the hot water pipe 100 and the heating tube 200 is formed integrally and the heat transfer between each other is made directly.

The present invention is applicable by the embodiment as described above, for a more detailed description will be described in more detail with reference to Figures 3 to 5 along with Figures 1 and 2 for the main part of the present invention.

The hot water pipe 100 has a flow path formed in one direction as described above, and when connected to a water supply pipe, one side of the filter 400 filters water as shown in FIG. 1, and the other side of the water intake coke 500. Connected, when the water is supplied from the company, such as bottled water can be omitted filter (400).

As described above, the heating tube 200 is integrally formed with the hot water tube 100 to heat the water in the hot water tube 100. The hot water tube 100 and the heating tube 200 are made of aluminum or an aluminum alloy. It is preferable that the inner and outer circumferential surfaces of the hot water pipe 100 and the heating tube 200 are anodized, anticorrosive coating or anticorrosive resin coating.

When the anticorrosive coating or the anticorrosive resin is applied to the object to be coated, a material such as epoxy or teflon having excellent heat resistance and impact resistance may be coated on the inner and outer circumferential surfaces of the hot water pipe 100 and the heating tube 200.

The anodizing treatment protects the inside of the aforementioned metals by making a thin oxide film on the surface of the above-described metals, which are highly reactive with oxygen such as aluminum, titanium, magnesium, and the like, to form an oxide film on their own surface.

The anodizing treatment described above artificially produces an oxide film having a uniform thickness by promoting the oxidation of the surface of the aforementioned metals while allowing the aforementioned metals to function as an anode in a specific solution such as sulfuric acid.

Like the metals described above, metals having a high degree of reaction with oxygen form an oxide film by themselves to protect themselves, but due to its high reactivity, impurities such as iron, silicon, or copper are inevitably included.

When the content of the above-mentioned impurities is high, the metals such as Al ₃ Fe, Al ₆ Fe, Al ₅ FeSi, Al ₂ Cu, etc., are formed between the above-mentioned impurities and the above-described metals (hereinafter, aluminum) during the manufacture of the product using the above-described metals. Compounds (Intermetallics, hereinafter referred to as IMC) are generated, and the aforementioned IMC, unlike aluminum, cannot generate an oxide film by itself.

Here, if the aluminum or aluminum alloy having a high impurity content is left in the air and used as it is, a fatal problem may occur such that the above-mentioned IMC is formed with holes or corroded and stress is concentrated.

Therefore, the above-described anodizing applies the principle that the above-mentioned IMC can also form an oxide film when an IMC that cannot form an oxide film in air is added to a specific solution such as sulfuric acid.

On the other hand, the hot water pipe 100 and the heating tube 200 is formed to form an integral by casting or extruding aluminum or aluminum alloy as described above, by turning at least one or more times as shown in Figure 2 to form a coil shape as a whole, The heating tube 200 is disposed inside the coil shape, and the hot water tube 100 is disposed outside the coil shape.

The heating tube 200 is arranged to be inside the coil shape so that the heat of the hot water pipe 100 can be continuously heated without the heat being discharged to the outside.
