[0004]

In order to solve the above problems, in the present invention, a storage tank for storing cleaning water and a closed space are formed in cooperation with the cleaning water storage tank. A lid, a water passage whose one end can communicate with the internal space of the storage tank and the other end of which opens outside the storage tank, an opening / closing valve for opening and closing the water passage, a foaming chamber for foaming the foaming agent, and the storage tank And an ionic component removal device that is removable from the storage tank and removes ionic components in the water in the communication part of the foaming chamber, and supplies gas that foams due to the foaming action of the foaming agent into the storage tank part There is provided a carbonated water cleaning device characterized in that cleaning water stored in a storage tank is discharged through a water passage opening outside the storage tank. In the carbonated water cleaning apparatus according to the present invention, both gas and liquid can pass through, and the ion component that is the component of the foaming agent can be removed from the water in which the foaming agent is dissolved by the ion component removing apparatus, so that pure carbonated water is produced. can do. For this reason, after the cleaning, the cleaning water is dried, so that the foaming agent is deposited, and the cleaning water can be supplied with good feeling after cleaning without causing the cleaning site to become sticky. In addition, since the wash water is carbonated water, it has the effect of promoting blood circulation by carbon dioxide in addition to the stimulation by the discharge flow. Hair growth and hair growth in scalp washing, prevention of hemorrhoids in washing the buttocks, and pollen in nose washing It is effective in the prevention of dental disease and the prevention of periodontal disease in the cleaning of teeth. In addition, since the foaming agent component is captured by the ion component removing device, it is necessary to discharge the captured foaming agent component to the outside of the storage tank, or replace or clean the ion component removing device itself. By adopting a configuration that is detachable and has an attachment / detachment assisting mechanism, it is possible to provide a carbonated water cleaning device with good cleanability and exchangeability. The foaming agent may be any water-soluble foaming agent. If the foaming agent is in a solid state, it is convenient to carry and easy to use, and if it is in the form of powder or particles, the solubility of the foaming agent is good.

In a preferred aspect of the present invention, the ion component removing device is provided with an attachment / detachment assisting portion. In a preferred aspect of the present invention, the attachment / detachment assisting portion is a gripping portion. This allows the user to easily replace and clean the ion component removing device, which is convenient.

In a preferred aspect of the present invention, the assisting portion is a lid, the ion component removing device and the lid are connectable, and the ion component removing device and the lid are attached and detached from a storage tank. . If the lid has the function of the attachment / detachment assisting portion, it is not necessary to separately provide the attachment / detachment assisting portion, and the number of parts is reduced.

[0007] In a preferred aspect of the present invention, the ion component removing device is configured to remove the ion component by using at least one of an ion exchange resin and an ion exchange membrane. When removing ionic components with ion exchange resins and ion exchange membranes, anions, cations,
Since it is possible to selectively specify the ionic component to be removed such as a polymer, it is possible to generate washing water that suits the user. Further, since the ion exchange resin and the ion exchange membrane can selectively specify the ionic component to be removed, the foaming agent can contain other components such as a fragrance and a moisturizing agent together. For example, a foaming agent may contain an anionic moisturizer and a cation exchange membrane may be used as the membrane.

In a preferred aspect of the present invention, the ionic component removing device is constructed to remove the ionic component by using a gas-liquid separation membrane that allows only gas to pass therethrough. If the ionic component removal device is configured to remove ionic components using a gas-liquid separation membrane, only the gas will pass through the membrane, so the chemical components of the foaming agent will not be mixed into the wash water and pure carbonated water will not be mixed. Can be generated.

In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the gas-liquid separation membrane is arranged at least on two or more side surfaces of the foaming chambers facing each other so that the membrane surface is a substantially upper surface regardless of the orientation of the storage tank. Since the gas-liquid separation membrane permeates only gas, if a foaming agent is added while the membrane is submerged and the foaming agent is dissolved to generate gas, the gas cannot move to the storage tank and the foaming chamber is overheated. It may be pressurized. As a result, there is a risk of the container cracking. With the above configuration, the gas-liquid separation membrane does not partly submerge in any state, so that the foaming chamber is not overpressurized.

In a preferred aspect of the present invention, a filter for preventing clogging is provided between the foaming chamber and the ion component removing device. As a result, the foaming agent does not come into direct contact with the ion removing device, so that clogging of the ion removing device (membrane) due to adhesion of the foaming agent, etc. is prevented, and at the same time the function of the ion removing device is fully exhibited. It has the effect of extending the life of the device. Further, even if foreign matter is mixed in the foaming chamber, the filter can prevent the membrane from being damaged by the foreign matter.

In a preferred aspect of the present invention, the attachment / detachment assisting portion includes a foaming agent holding portion. In a preferred aspect of the present invention, the filter has a foaming agent retaining function. When the foaming agent comes into contact with water, it immediately reacts with the gas to generate gas. In order to efficiently use the generated gas, it is preferable to start the reaction of the foaming agent after the lid is covered so that the gas does not leak. Therefore, it is preferable to provide the foaming agent holding portion. Further, if it has a foaming agent holding function, it is not necessary to separately provide a foaming agent holding portion, and the number of parts is reduced.

[0012] In a preferred aspect of the present invention, the bubbling chamber and the water passage are arranged in the storage tank so as to face each other. Usually, when the foaming agent reacts and the pressure in the container increases, the reaction of the foaming agent is suppressed, and when the cleaning water is discharged and the pressure in the container decreases, the foaming agent reacts again to generate gas. That is, gas is generated according to the decrease of the wash water in the storage tank. Therefore, when the water passage for discharging the water in the storage tank to the outside of the storage tank is adjacent to the bubbling chamber, the gas pressure re-generated from the bubbling chamber is directly due to the decrease in the pressure inside the container during the water discharge. There is a risk that the water may be mixed in the water passage and the water discharge may be disturbed or uneven. With the above configuration, it is possible to prevent those problems from occurring.

In a preferred aspect of the present invention, a portion of the water passage extending in the wash water storage tank has a flexible tube, and a weight is attached near one end of the tube forming the one end of the water passage. There is. This ensures that one end of the water passage is submerged, so that the flush water can be reliably discharged regardless of the orientation of the carbonated water washing device.

In a preferred aspect of the present invention, there is provided a relief valve for allowing the generated gas to escape to the outside of the closed space when the closed space has a desired pressure or more. The provision of the relief valve makes it possible to adjust the internal pressure of the closed space to a desired value when the reaction of the foaming agent is completed.

In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the storage tank and / or part of the lid are transparent. Since the reaction of the foaming agent can be visually confirmed through the transparent portion, it is possible to prevent the foaming agent from unreacting, that is, spouting the wash water in a state where the spouting pressure is insufficient. It can also be confirmed when the membrane, which is the ion component removing device, is damaged or clogged.

In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a PH adjusting agent is incorporated in the foaming agent. When the blowing agent is dissolved to generate carbon dioxide, the carbon dioxide is HC in the aqueous solution.
It takes the form of O ₃ ⁻ , CO ₃ ²⁻ , CO _{2, and the} like. Also, H
The existence probabilities of CO ₃ ⁻ , CO ₃ ²⁻ , and CO ₂ in water greatly change depending on the PH value of the aqueous solution. Carbon dioxide is HCO
_{3 ^-,} CO ₃ carbon dioxide than that dissolved in ² forms what that dissolved in the form of CO ₂ is high blood circulation promoting effect, PH value is higher existence probability of more CO ₂ is towards the acidic side. Therefore, by adjusting the pH, more CO ₂ is generated, and the blood circulation promoting effect can be efficiently obtained with a small amount of the foaming agent.

In a preferred aspect of the present invention, a plurality of flexible projections are provided in the vicinity of the water outlet of the water passage that opens outside the storage tank. In a preferred aspect of the present invention, the water discharge port is provided on the protrusion. Since the scalp can be washed with the projections and washed with carbonated water while massaging, the blood circulation promoting effect is improved. Further, when the carbonated water hits the hair, it foams on the hair, gas is released, it is not absorbed by the scalp, and the blood circulation promoting effect may not be obtained. Since the water outlet is provided on the protrusion, carbonated water can be directly sprayed on the scalp, so that the blood circulation promoting effect can be obtained efficiently and surely.

[0018]

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION A carbonated water cleaning apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described. As shown in FIG. 1, the carbonated water cleaning apparatus A according to the present embodiment has a storage tank 1, a lid 2 that cooperates with the storage tank 1 to form a closed space, and one end of the storage tank 1.
Water passage 3 that is capable of communicating with the internal space of the other end and has the other end opened outside the storage tank 1, an on-off valve 4 that opens and closes the water passage 3, an operation switch 5 for manually operating the on-off valve 4, and a storage tank 1 mainly comprises a foaming chamber 6 for foaming a foaming agent, and a storage tank 1 and an ionic component removing device 7 that is detachably attached to the storage tank 1 in a communication portion between the foaming chambers 6. FIG. 2 shows a storage tank 1, a lid 2, and an ion component removing device 7.
The exploded view which decomposed | disassembled is shown.

In this case, the storage tank 1 has an opening which communicates with the water passage 3 at one end, and a washing water supply port 8 is provided at the other end opposite to the opening side. The ion component removing device 7 and the lid 2 are detachably attached to the water supply port 8 via packings 9a and 9b. Here, a portion partitioned by the ion component removing device 7 and the lid 2 is a foaming chamber 6. A filter 10 for preventing clogging is fixed to the ionic component removing device 7 between the ionic component removing device 7 and the foaming chamber 6 with a screw 11. Here, the filter 10 is a water-permeable porous plate member, for example, a material having water resistance and corrosion resistance, and may be a mesh-like member having a particle size smaller than at least the particle diameter of the foaming agent. For example, activated carbon may be used as the filter 10. Further, the ionic component removing device 7 is provided with a rod-shaped gripping portion 12 which is an attachment / detachment assisting portion for easy manual attachment / detachment. The grip portion 12 has a recess 12a formed at the tip of the rod so as to hold the foaming agent. This recess 1
The foaming agent holding portion 12b is formed by 2a.

The ionic component removing device 7 is constructed to remove ionic components using the gas-liquid separation membrane 13. Further, the gas-liquid separation membrane 13 is arranged on the side surfaces of the two bubbling chambers 6 facing each other so that the membrane surface is a substantially upper surface regardless of the orientation of the storage tank 1. Further, in this case, the gas-liquid separation membrane 13 may be arranged on the two side surfaces facing each other and the other surface.

The portion of the water passage 3 extending outside the storage tank 1 constitutes the wash water nozzle 15. Wash water nozzle 15
1 extends in the storage tank 1 of the water passage 3 so as to be rotatable between a storage position shown by a solid line in FIG. 1 and a working position shown by a chain line in FIG. 1 standing upright from the storage tank 1. It is connected to the downstream end of the existing part. In addition, the nozzle cap 1 that protects the wash water nozzle 15 in the storage position
6 is detachably attached.

Next, the operation of the carbonated water cleaning device A will be described.
The user removes the lid 2 and the ion component removing device 7 from the storage tank 1, puts water in the storage tank 1, and attaches the ion removing device 7 to the wash water supply port 8 of the storage tank 1 via the packing 9a. Next, a foaming agent in which a carbonate and an organic acid are mixed is set in the foaming agent holding portion 12b of the grip portion 12,
Further, water is put into the foaming chamber 6 formed by the ion component removing device 7 and the lid 2. Then the lid 2 via the packing 9b
Thus, the storage tank 1 is covered and the storage tank 1 is sealed. The lid 2 and the storage tank 1 work together to form a closed space. After application of the lid, the foaming agent is in the closed space. Here, in the carbonated water cleaning device A, since the foaming agent holding portion 12b is provided, the reaction between the foaming agent and water can be started after the storage tank 1 is covered. As a result, it is possible to prevent the generated gas from being dissipated from the carbonated water cleaning device A due to the start of the reaction before applying the lid. Further, the concave portion 12a is the foaming agent holding portion 1
By having 2b, it is not necessary to separately provide the foaming agent holding portion, and the number of parts is reduced. At the time of completion of lid application, a portion of the storage tank 1 inner space not filled with water, a portion of the foaming chamber 6 inner space not filled with water,
An air layer is formed in the closed space in an upstream region of the opening / closing valve 4 in a portion of the water passage 3 extending in the storage tank 1.

The user turns the carbonated water cleaning device A upside down and directs the lid 2 downward to bring the foaming agent and water into contact with each other in the foaming chamber 6. The foaming agent reacts with water to generate carbon dioxide gas. Only the carbon dioxide gas generated in the bubbling chamber passes through the gas-liquid separation membrane 13 of the ionic component removing device 7, dissolves in the wash water in the storage tank 1 and joins with the air layer in the closed space to form an air layer. The pressure is increased to pressurize the cleaning water stored in the storage tank 1. Here, when the foaming agent and water are dissolved to generate carbon dioxide gas, the carbonated water cleaning device A is shaken and dissolved, but even if the cleaning water is pressed with the cleaning water nozzle 15 facing up, or the cleaning water nozzle 15 Is arranged so that at least a part of the gas-liquid separation membrane 13 is substantially on the upper surface even when the cleaning water is pressed downwards or the cleaning water nozzle 15 is laid sideways to press the cleaning water. Therefore, the generated gas does not pass through the gas-liquid separation membrane 13 and moves to the storage tank, the foaming chamber 6 is over-pressurized, and the carbonated water cleaning device A is not damaged. Therefore, the components of the foaming agent do not flow into the wash water, and the wash water can be safely discharged from the jet nozzle.

After the reaction between the foaming agent and water is completed, the user holds the carbonated water cleaning device A by hand in an inverted state, removes the nozzle cap 16, and moves the cleaning water nozzle 15 from the storage position to the operating position. The cleaning water nozzle 15 is moved up to the standing position, and the tip of the cleaning water nozzle 15 is brought close to the desired cleaning site. The user presses the operation switch 5 to open the open / close valve 4.

The pressurized washing water flows into the water passage 3,
It passes through the on-off valve 4. Due to the pressure loss when passing through the on-off valve 4 and the pressure reduction due to water discharge to the inside of the storage tank 1 and the atmosphere, the dissolved carbon dioxide gas becomes a large number of fine bubbles dispersed and mixed in the wash water. . Cleaning water in which a large number of fine bubbles are dispersed and mixed is discharged from the tip of the cleaning water nozzle 15. Due to the bubbly flow of strong detergency, the desired body part of the user is thoroughly washed. At the same time, the effect of carbon dioxide promotes blood circulation at the washing site.

In the carbonated water washing device, the reaction of the foaming agent is usually suppressed when the foaming agent reacts and the internal pressure of the container increases. Then, when the pressure inside the container is lowered by spouting the wash water, the foaming agent reacts again to generate gas.
That is, gas is generated according to the decrease of the propellant in the storage tank 1. Therefore, when the water passage 3 for discharging the water in the storage tank 1 to the outside of the storage tank 1 is adjacent to the bubbling chamber 6, the pressure in the container decreases at the time of water discharge, and the gas generated again from the bubbling chamber 6 is generated. Will be mixed directly into the water passage 3 and the water discharge will be disturbed or uneven. However, since the bubbling chamber 6 and the water passage 3 are arranged in the storage tank 1 so as to face each other, there is no fear of this.

Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described above, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The ion component removing device 7 may be configured to remove the ion component by using at least one of an ion exchange resin and an ion exchange membrane instead of the gas-liquid separation membrane 13. Ion exchange membranes have the function of selectively permeating or separating various ions, which are electrolytes in water, by using electrical energy or concentration difference.
There are mainly two types of ion exchange membranes, anion exchange membranes and cation cation exchange membranes. Positive (+) or negative (-) exchange groups are introduced, respectively, the cation exchange membrane can exchange cations, and the anion exchange membrane can exchange anions. The ion exchange resin also has a similar function. Therefore, when the ion component is removed by the ion exchange resin or the ion exchange membrane, it is possible to selectively specify the anion component, such as anion or cation, to be removed, so that wash water suitable for the user can be generated. . Further, since the ionic component to be removed can be selectively specified, the foaming agent can also contain other components such as a fragrance and a moisturizer. For example, a foaming agent may contain an anionic moisturizer and a cation exchange membrane may be used as the membrane.

The attachment / detachment assisting portion provided in the ion component removing device 7 may be composed of a support 12c and a spring 12d as shown in FIG. The gas-liquid separation membrane 13 is inserted into the ionic component removing device 7, and the gas-liquid separation membrane 13 is supported by the support 12c.
To fix. When the gas-liquid separation film 13 is inserted into the ion component removing device 7, it is always pressed by the spring 12d. Therefore, by removing the support 12c, the gas-liquid separation can be easily performed by the force of the spring. The membrane 13 can be attached and detached. Further, in order to maintain the airtightness of the foaming chamber, the gas-liquid separation membrane is fixed via the packing 9c. The feature here is that the gas-liquid separation membrane 13 can be removed by sliding in the plane direction. As a result, since the film can be taken out in the surface direction, the film can be easily attached and detached by the above configuration without damaging the film. Further, as shown in FIG. 3, the filter 10 for preventing clogging may be formed in a concave shape and provided with a foaming agent holding mechanism. In this case, it is not necessary to separately provide the foaming agent holding portion 12b, and the number of parts is reduced.

As shown in FIG. 4, the ion component removing device 7 and the lid 2 can be connected to each other, and the attachment / detachment assisting portion may be the lid 2. FIG. 5 shows an exploded view in which the ion component removing device 7 and the lid 2 are disassembled. In this case, the lid 2 is provided with an outward flange portion 2b which is screwed to a male screw portion engraved in the ion component removing device opening 7a, so that the foaming chamber 6 is hermetically sealed via the packing 9b. It is mounted on the component removing device 7. If the lid 2 has the function of the attachment / detachment assisting portion, it is not necessary to separately provide the attachment / detachment assisting portion,
The number of parts is reduced.

As shown in FIG. 6, a portion of the water passage 3 extending in the storage tank 1 is composed of a flexible tube 17, and the weight 1 is provided near one end of the tube 17 forming one end of the water passage 3.
8 may be attached. In this case, even if the cleaning water nozzle 15 is used up and the carbonated water cleaning device A is used, or if the cleaning water nozzle 15 is down and the carbonated water cleaning device A is used, or the cleaning water nozzle 15 is placed sideways. Even if the carbonated water cleaning device A is used, one end of the tube 17 to which the weight 18 is attached is pulled by the weight 18 to ensure submersion of water, and the cleaning water is reliably discharged from the cleaning water nozzle 15.

As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the cleaning water nozzle 1
A flexible projection 15e having a conical shape, a brush shape, or any other shape may be attached to the tip of the nozzle 5 and near the water discharge port 15d. When the head is washed using the carbonated water washing device A, the flexible projection 15e stimulates the scalp, promotes blood circulation in the scalp, and has hair-growth and hair-growth effects. Further, when the carbonated water hits the hair, it is foamed there, so that carbon dioxide gas may escape and may not be absorbed by the scalp. When the water discharge port 15d is arranged at the tip of the flexible projection 15e, the water discharge port 15d directly approaches the scalp, so the washing power of the wash water is improved, the comfort of the user is increased, and the blood circulation promoting effect is surely obtained. To be In addition, when washing the hips, soft bubbly water mixed with carbon dioxide gas is discharged as washing water, so that hemorrhoids can be prevented. Also, when cleaning the teeth, since it is possible to clean the teeth with a brush while cleaning the teeth with carbonated water, the effect of preventing the periodontal disease can be obtained from the massage of the brush and the blood circulation promoting effect of the carbonated water.

Further, the cleaning nozzle may have a function of an operation switch by providing a mechanism in which the opening / closing valve is opened by pressing the cleaning nozzle against the human body. in this case,
Since the opening / closing valve is opened and closed with the water outlet of the cleaning nozzle being close to the cleaning site, the cleaning water can be used without waste. In addition, it is not necessary to provide a separate operation switch, which reduces the number of parts and improves usability.

As shown in FIG. 6, a part or all of the storage tank 1 and / or the lid 2 may be made of a transparent material. Through the transparent portion, it is possible to visually recognize that the reaction between the foaming agent and the washing water is completed. It can also be confirmed when the gas-liquid separation membrane 13 of the ion component removing device 7 is damaged or clogged.

As shown in FIG. 6, unevenness 1a is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the storage tank 1, or unevenness similar to the unevenness 1a is formed on the outer surface of the lid 2, or the storage tank 1 and the lid 2 are made of rubber. The surface of the storage tank 1 and / or the lid 2 may be subjected to slip prevention by coating or the like. Even if water adheres to the outer surfaces of the storage tank 1 and the lid 2, the storage tank 1 and the lid 2 do not slip, so there is no risk of dropping the carbonated water cleaning device A on the floor during use. Although it is considered that the container is shaken when the foaming agent is dissolved, there is no risk of dropping it on the floor because it does not slip.

As shown in FIG. 6, the storage tank 1 may be further provided with a relief valve 14 that allows the gas in the closed space to escape to the outside of the storage tank 1 when the value exceeds a desired value. The provision of the relief valve 14 makes it possible to adjust the internal pressure of the closed space to a desired value when the reaction between the foaming agent and water is completed. The relief valve 14 is as shown in FIG. The valve body 14b biased toward the storage tank 1 by the spring 14a is in contact with the valve seat 14c. Spring 14a
The setting of the relief valve can be changed by changing the elastic force and the contact area between the valve element 14b and the valve seat 14c. Here, although the valve element 14b has a spherical shape, it may have a substantially conical shape, a substantially cubic shape, or the like. Further, since the discharge pressure (injection pressure) of the cleaning water used for cleaning is approximately 2 to 4 * 10 ⁵ Pa or more and 50 to 200 cc / min may be injected,
The relief valve 14 may be set to about 5 * 10 ⁵ Pa, or the internal pressure may be increased by changing the capacity of the main body 2, that is, the size of the storage tank 1, the size of the foaming chamber 6, the amount of washing water, etc. It may be set so as not to rise.
