Definitions

  • Hydro massage nozzle for creating an air bubble in a pool of water.
  • the invention is based on a hydro massage nozzle as disclosed in EP 85108947.4, EP 83630167.1, EP 83112515.8.
  • Such nozzle constructions have the disadvantage that they can only be installed in the side walls of a water basin. When installed in the area of the pool floor, the circulating water would splash onto the ceiling of the bathroom. If the power was reduced, the desired massage effect would be too weak.
  • the known nozzle designs with extensive piping are usually too large to be installed on the bottom of a water basin because such an assembly space is not available under the water basin.
  • the installation in the water pool wall has the disadvantage that the massage effect, which is usually caused by a water-air mixture, only hits the bathing guest laterally, for example in the bathtub, while massage on the back of the bathing guest is not possible.
  • nozzle configuration for example in a bathtub with three nozzles on the right and three nozzles on the left, there is no surface effect, the bathing guest can turn and turn as he wants, his body is not exposed to a full massage.
  • the blasted medium water and / or air
  • the known nozzles work on the principle of the water jet pump, with or without the aid of a compressed air generator. Nozzles are known which serve the pure supply of compressed air.
  • the compressed air nozzles are distributed in a large number of bores over the bottom surface and walls of the water basin, which naturally leads to sealing problems, the nozzles are not covered, bath water and soap residues can penetrate, which leads to hygiene problems in the supply lines.
  • Such air supply nozzles disadvantageously have no massage effect, but only lead to bubbling of the water, in particular the water disadvantage with so-called bathtub whirlpool pads of a mobile type is known , the higher the jet pressure, the more disadvantageously and quickly the air bubbles rise, which are decisive for the massage intensity.
  • both a multiply distributed water jet and also a multiply distributed jet from a water-air mixture, as well as a multiply distributed air jet can be injected into the interior of the water basin. It is possible to use and select the two known systems (water jet pump with injection air without or with blower, or only with blower air) with only one nozzle. If initially only one system is desired for the equipment, the other system can be retrofitted at any time by supplying the nozzle according to the invention with the respective medium.
  • the generated jet of water and / or air is radiated into the interior of the water basin in a broad, star-shaped manner, without splashing water occurring in the vertical direction. Blown-in air does not leave the nozzle in the direction of buoyancy, the higher the jet pressure, the longer it takes for the air bubbles to reach the vertical direction of buoyancy.
  • Air bubbles which are blasted in an air-water mixture, naturally get quite far into the interior of the water volume when mixed with water in the water jet until they detach from the water jet and become buoyant.
  • the water-air flow and the associated massage effect is therefore significantly increased.
  • 6-8 nozzles according to the invention can cover the entire surface of the water basin with a whirlpool and with a powerful massage effect. The risk of leaks is thus reduced to a minimum.
  • Another advantage of the nozzle construction according to the invention is that it can easily be installed in mobile bath tub mats, which previously could only be operated with a compressed air generating blower.
  • the nozzles according to the invention can also be installed in water basins with a low water level, such as in a foot basin, without the risk of splashing water. Installation is also possible in bathtub inserts.
  • the nozzles according to the invention offer the swimmer a wide-area underwater massage, to which the swimmer can comfortably expose any part of the body, by rotating the body can both back, chest and Side part facing the pool floor equipped with nozzles.
  • the penetration of bath water and soap residue is effectively prevented, the jet outlet opening is hygienically covered and closed when the pressure generator (pump, blower) is switched off.
  • the embodiment according to the features of the main claim has the particular advantage that the jet deflecting plate as a lid, on or above the feeder, on the side of the lid facing away from the tub bottom, results in a strong suction effect, which results in enormously favorable water circulation within the water basin, which leads to increased turbulence, which is not only dependent on the known water extraction from the tub and re-irradiation at a nozzle by directional flow, but also acts through lively intermediate flow from the nozzle blow-out direction back to the center of the radiation covered by the cover.
  • the amount of recirculation water mixes again with the amount of radiation at the circumference of the lid and is enriched again with intake air, which is carried far into the tub by this favorable flow.

It is advantageous to install known jet nozzles at the bottom of the water basin, with the beam shaping then being deflected and spread over a wide area, like a fan against the body of the bathing guest.

Abstract

Une buse d'hydromassage servant à injecter au moins un milieu dans un bassin d'eau aide à générer des bouillonnements par l'introduction du milieu dans le bassin sur une surface aussi large que possible. A cet effet, une plaque de déviation et de distribution (1) du jet qui dévie le milieu à injecter en un sens approximativement parallèle à la paroi du bassin est reliée en aval d'un tube de Venturi communiquant avec l'amenée (8) du milieu.
