Abstract

A cartridge (1) filled with bath additives bound in solid form is fitted, for example, on the air inlet (3) of a bubble mat (2). It continuously releases the bath additive through a perforation (1a) into the bath water. This procedure is accelerated, where appropriate, by subjecting the cartridge (1) to compressed air (4a). The cartridge (1), which is of a disposable design, can be sealed on its plug-in flange (1b), where it can be regulated by a valve, and on its perforation (1a). The advantages of a bath additive cartridge are hygienically satisfactory use, more exact and economic metering, consequent avoidance of blocking of the bubble nozzles by excessive bath additive, fine dispersion of the bath additive and economic storage of a wide variety of types of bath additive. <IMAGE>

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Luftsprudelbad mit dosierter Badezusatzfreigabe.The invention relates to an air bubble bath with metered release of bath additives.

Die Zugabe schaumgebremster Badezusätze zum Luftsprudelbad ist seit vielen Jahren üblich. Das Sprudelbad verteilt die Badezusätze feiner als ein nor­ males Wannenbad; sie werden der Haut des Badenden ständig frisch angeboten und auch vermehrt im Aerosol über dem Badewasser angereichert, wo sie der Badende per Inhalation aufnimmt.The addition of foam-reduced bath additives to the air bubble bath has been for many Years common. The bubble bath distributes the bath additives finer than a nor male bath tub; they are always offered fresh to the skin of the bather and also increasingly accumulated in the aerosol above the bathing water, where it Picks up bather by inhalation.

Ein Nachteil ist aber die häufig vorkommende Überdosierung der Badezusätze, die zu einer Versprödung des Kunststoffes und zum Verkleben der Luftaus­ trittsdüsen der Luftsprudelmatte führen kann.A disadvantage is the frequent overdosing of bath additives, that embrittlement of the plastic and sticking of the air can lead to the air bubble mat.

Außerdem wird der Badezusatz von den Benutzern oft ins ruhende Wasser - sogar auf die trockene Sprudelmatte - gegeben, was über o. g. Schäden hinaus in einer sehr schlechten Verteilung der Badezusätze im Wasser resul­ tiert.In addition, users often use the bath additive in the still water - even on the dry bubble mat - given what about the above Damage also result in a very poor distribution of bath additives in the water animals.

Eine bekannte Vorrichtung, mit der die genannten Nachteile zum Teil ver­ mieden werden, ist im DE-GM 78 10 661 beschrieben. Die Badezusätze werden nach dieser Erfindung nicht direkt ins Badewasser gegeben, sondern in einen Beutel aus wasserdurchlässigem Material, aus welchen sie, gewissermaßen ge­ filtert, ins Badewasser diffundieren. A known device with which the disadvantages mentioned ver be avoided is described in DE-GM 78 10 661. The bath products are according to this invention not put directly into the bath water, but into one Bags made of water-permeable material, from which they are, so to speak filters, diffuse into the bath water.  

Dies ist aber sehr umständlich und eine zeitraubende Prozedur, außerdem kaum exakt zu dosieren und mit einem Sprudelbad nicht verkaufsfördernd zu kom­ binieren. Vermutlich muß der Beutel nach jedem Bad ausgewaschen werden, was einer komfortablen Anwendung ebenfalls abträglich ist.But this is very cumbersome and a time-consuming procedure, and hardly any to be dosed exactly and not to promote sales with a bubble bath binieren. Probably the bag has to be washed out after every bath, what a comfortable use is also detrimental.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist deshalb die Ausstattung eines Luft­ sprudelbades mit einer Vorrichtung, die den Badezusatz über die Badedauer kontinuierlich, feinverteilt und in definierter Dosis ans Badewasser abgibt, wobei das Nachfüllen/Wechseln des Badezusatzes in einfacher, sauberer und problemloser Weise erfolgen kann.The object of the present invention is therefore to equip an air whirlpool bath with a device that the bath additive over the bathing time continuously, finely divided and released into the bath water in a defined dose, the refilling / changing of the bath additive in simple, clean and can be done easily.

Die Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß in der Weise gelöst, daß eine auswechsel­ bare Patrone an unter dem Wasserspiegel liegenden Teilen des Luftsprudel­ bades angebracht wird und über eine Perforation per Diffusion ihren in ge­ bundener Form vorliegenden Badezusatz ins Wasser abgibt.The object is achieved in such a way that a replacement Blank cartridge on parts of the air bubble below the water level bath is attached and perforated by diffusion in the form of a bath additive in the water.

Dieser Vorgang kann in einer weiteren bevorzugten Ausgestaltung durch Beauf­ schlagung mit Druckluft, z. B. über Einstecken der Patrone in eine ent­ sprechende Aufnahme der Lufteinspeisung, beschleunigt und gesteuert werden. Die Steuerung der Badezusatzfreigabe kann am exaktesten über ein regelbares Ventil für die Zufuhr der Druckluft erfolgen.In a further preferred embodiment, this process can be carried out by Beauf hitting with compressed air, e.g. B. by inserting the cartridge into an ent speaking intake of the air supply, accelerated and controlled. The control of the bath additive release can be most precisely via a controllable Valve for the supply of compressed air.

Im Ruhezustand ist, wie eine weitere Ausführung der Erfindung vorsieht, die Perforation z. B. durch eine aufgeschobene Kappe verschließbar.At rest, as a further embodiment of the invention provides, Perforation z. B. closable by a pushed-on cap.

Zweckmäßigerweise ist die Patrone samt jeweiligem Badezusatzinhalt als dreh­ runder Einmalartikel hergestellt, der nach Auslaugung entsorgt und durch einen neuen ersetzt wird.The cartridge together with the respective bath additive content is expediently turned Round disposable article manufactured, which is disposed of after leaching and by a new one is replaced.

Die Vorteile der Erfindung sind folgende:
Eine Versprödung, Verschmutzung und Verklebung von Sprudelmatte und Spru­ deldüsen durch falsch dosierte/falsch zugegebene Badezusätze kann bei Ver­ wendung einer erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung nicht mehr vorkommen.The advantages of the invention are as follows:
Embrittlement, contamination and sticking of bubble mat and spray nozzles due to incorrectly metered / incorrectly added bath additives can no longer occur when using a device according to the invention.

Der Badezusatz wird sparsam verwendet, er kann - bei Ausgestaltung mit Ven­ til/Perforationsabdeckung - über die Badezeit genau dosiert werden. The bath additive is used sparingly, it can - if designed with Ven til / perforation cover - can be dosed precisely over the bathing time.  

Durch die durchgeblasene Sprudelung wird der Badezusatz fein verteilt - eine Voraussetzung für die optimale Verfügbarkeit an Haut und Atemwegen. Infolge ihrer kompakten Abmessungen kann der Sprudelbadbenutzer eine ganze "Apotheke" an verschiedenen Badezusatzpatronen bevorraten, ohne jeweils eine 500 ml - oder sogar 1000 ml - Flasche kaufen und aufbewahren zu müssen.The bath additive is finely distributed through the bubbled bubbles - a prerequisite for optimal skin and respiratory availability. Due to their compact dimensions, the bubble bath user can take a whole "Pharmacy" stocked on various bath additive cartridges, without one each Buy and keep 500 ml - or even 1000 ml - bottles.

Abschließend soll ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung anhand der Zeichnung erläutert werden.In conclusion, an embodiment of the invention with reference to the drawing are explained.

Fig. 1 zeigt die Patrone 1, die in die Aufnahme 3 a der Lufteinspeisung 3 einer handelsüblichen Sprudelmatte 2 eingesteckt ist. Fig. 1 shows the cartridge 1 , which is inserted into the receptacle 3 a of the air feed 3 of a commercially available bubble mat 2 .

Die Druckluft 4 a gelangt vom Gebläse (nicht dargestellt) in die Lufteinspei­ sung 3, von da z. T. in das Innere der Sprudelmatte 2, von wo sie als Spru­ delluft 2 a ins Badewasser entweicht, z. T. aber in die Patrone 1. Diese gibt ein Badezusatz-/Wasser-/Luft-Gemisch 1 c ins Badewasser ab.The compressed air 4 a passes from the blower (not shown) into the air feed 3 , from there z. T. in the interior of the bubble mat 2 , from where it escapes as Spru delluft 2 a in the bath water, z. T. but in the cartridge 1 . This releases a bath additive / water / air mixture 1 c into the bath water.

Fig. 2 ist eine perspektivische Ansicht der Patrone 1 mit eingezeichneter Perforation 1 a und daraus hervortretendem Badezusatz-/Wasser-/Luft-Gemisch 1 c. Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the cartridge 1 with drawn perforation 1 a and resulting bath additive / water / air mixture 1 c .

Die Druckluft 4 a gelangt über den Steckflansch 1 b ins Innere der Patrone 1.The compressed air 4 a passes through the plug-in flange 1 b into the interior of the cartridge 1 .
