Abstract:
A method of controlling a drinking water supply device includes inputting a water discharge signal through an input lever, opening a first valve such that drinking water flows through a first channel and measuring the amount of drinking water flowing through the first channel using a flow rate sensor, opening a second valve for a predetermined time to discharge minerals when the amount of drinking water measured by the flow rate sensor reaches a first predetermined amount, and, opening the second valve again for the predetermined time to further discharge minerals when a second predetermined amount of drinking water is measured by the flow rate sensor.

Claim (Index 9):
A drinking water supply device comprising:\n a first channel through which water flows, the first channel including a first valve that opens and closes the first channel and a flow rate sensor that senses a flow rate of the drinking water trough the first channel; a water discharge channel connected downstream of the first channel and configured to discharge the water; a connection pipe that connects the first channel to the water discharge channel; a second channel through which minerals are supplied to the connection pipe, the second channel including a second valve that opens and closes the second channel; a mineral container connected to the second channel and provided upstream of the second valve to receive condensed minerals; an input configured to generate a water discharge signal when the input is activated and configured to generate a water discharge end signal when the input is deactivated; and a controller configured to open the second valve for a first predetermined time to discharge minerals upon receiving the water discharge signal and determining that an amount of water has reached a first predetermined amount.
