The adjusting device for water flow can adjust flow of the water which flows into the holding space; therefore, it can adjust the time of releasing addition agent; 3. Using addition agent is simple and easy; 4. Small in size, easy to be constructed individually or compounded with other functional parts. | 01-13-2011 |
