Description
FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The inventive concept relates generally to a colloidal brewing system.


BACKGROUND

Colloidal silver products may be antimicrobial, germ-fighting, and immunity-boosting agents. One or more of silver nanoparticles and microparticles are incorporated into bandages and dressings for wounds and burn treatment. Colloidal silver may be used as a supplement to fight viruses. Colloidal silver may be consumed as a supplement, used topically, and put in a spray bottle as a house-cleaning product to eliminate germs, mold, and viruses or may be used as a spray to protect garden plants from fungi and insects.


Currently, people may attempt to brew colloidal silver on their own, but this solution is unable to meet the needs of the market because brewing colloidal silver can be difficult. Therefore, there currently exists a need in the market for an improved apparatus that brews colloidal silver.


SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

Examples of specific implementations and applications are provided primarily for illustrative purposes.


Referring to the figures, FIGS. 1-9 illustrate a colloidal brewing system 100 having a transparent or translucent container assembly 110 with a watertight bottom portion 119 and an open top portion 111, container assembly 110 designed to contain distilled water, water-based or an aqueous solution 110. A removable lid member 120 that includes, encases seats at least one positive and negative electrical wire members 122A and 122B therein. In this example embodiment, wire members 122A and 122B are coupled to two removable silver rod members 47A and 47B suspended in the transparent container assembly 110 filled with distilled water 110. The silver rod members 47A and 47B are disposed on and coupled to a bottom portion 129 of the lid member 120, with the rod members 47A-47B extending substantially to near the bottom portion 119 of the container assembly 110. In other embodiments, silver rod members 47, or other beneficial metals or mineral rods, can be of varying and shorter lengths but are necessary to be substantially submerged in distilled water during brewing.


In this embodiment, system 100 includes a magnetic stir assembly 140 which substantially centers an interior bottom portion 118 of the container assembly 110 and is designed to rotate on a parallel plane 119 to the bottom portion 118. Assembly 140 includes an impeller 142 coupled to a stem or rod 144 to facilitate spinning when a magnetic inductive force is applied. In a related embodiment, impeller 142 and rod 144 can be substituted with a magnetic capsule designed for spinning when an inductive magnetic force is applied. Referring briefly to FIG. 8, assembly 140 ensures that clumping of the silver particles in water 10 solution is eliminated or kept to a minimum (see swirling water 10A caused by spinning impeller 142), and the silver particles are mixed well in the distilled water 10, in order that the final colloidal silver (or other metal or mineral, such as zinc) solution or “brew” has a defined brew time in hours and minutes (of about an hour or so depending on the level of silver particles desired in the water) or a level of silver particles, preferably 5-12 parts per million (ppm).


In this example embodiment, a receiver coil and a transmitter coil assembly 150 are disposed within a base container assembly 160, the base container assembly 160 being designed to gravitationally support the watertight bottom portion 119 of the transparent container assembly 110. Receiver coil 150A and transmitter coil 150B of assembly 150 is inductively coupled to the magnetic stir assembly 140.
