Abstract:
1. A constant temperature liquid bath that adjusts a temperature of liquid in the bath by a heat supply apparatus having a thermo-module for adjusting temperature by Peltier effect, the constant temperature liquid bath comprising: an outer bath that stores the liquid; an inner bath disposed concentrically with the outer bath at an inside of the outer bath, through a gap, and including a bottom that is parallel to a bottom of the outer bath, and including only one hole at the bottom of the inner bath, the hole passing through the center of the bottom of the inner bath; a rotor blade chamber formed between the bottom of the outer bath and the bottom of the inner bath, communicating with an inside of the inner bath through the hole, and including a rotor blade at a central portion of the inside of the rotor blade chamber, a centrifugal blade of the rotor blade circulating the liquid that flows from the hole in a centrifugal direction along the bottom of the outer bath and the bottom of the inner bath, the centrifugal blade of the rotor blade mounted so as to be positioned at only the inside of the rotor blade chamber, and the hole is positioned at a center of the rotor blade within a rotating region of the centrifugal blade; an agitator introducing the liquid into the gap by driving the rotor blade, and to cause liquid that flows into the rotor blade chamber from the hole of the bottom of the inner bath to flow upward in the gap; wherein the thermo-module is mounted on an outer surface of the sidewall of the outer bath, and is configured to adjust a temperature of the liquid by exchanging heat with the liquid flowing upward in the gap through the sidewall of the outer bath, wherein the liquid flowing upward in the gap, which has had its temperature adjusted by the thermo-module, flows into the inner bath, and further comprising a temperature sensor configured to detect a temperature of liquid in the inner bath or outer bath to control adjusting a temperature of the liquid in the constant temperature liquid bath to a set temperature.
