Description

この出願の発明は、気泡発生浴槽の気液溶解タンクに関するものである。さらに詳しくは、この出願の発明は、気泡発生浴槽の使用後(気液溶解タンクの作動停止後)の残り水を効率よく排水して、気液溶解タンク内を衛生的に保つことのできる、新しい気泡発生浴槽の気液溶解タンクに関するものである。   The invention of this application relates to a gas-liquid dissolution tank for a bubble generating bathtub. More specifically, the invention of this application can efficiently drain the remaining water after the use of the bubble generation bath (after the operation of the gas-liquid dissolution tank is stopped) to keep the gas-liquid dissolution tank hygienic. The present invention relates to a gas-liquid dissolution tank for a new bubble generation bathtub.

従来より、住宅等の浴室に設置される浴槽については、様々な構成と構造とを有するものが提供されてきており、たとえばその内の一つとして、浴槽内の湯水を循環させながら空気を混合溶解させた気液混合水を発生させる気泡発生浴槽(ジェットバス)が知られている。また、直径数ミクロン〜数十ミクロン程度の微細気泡を混入させ、噴出させることのできる気泡発生浴槽(ミルキーバス)や、さらには、この微細気泡噴出機能と上記の気泡噴出機能とを併せ持った気泡発生浴槽(ミルキー・ジェットバス)も知られている(たとえば、特許文献1等)。   Conventionally, bathtubs installed in bathrooms such as houses have been provided with various configurations and structures. For example, as one of them, air is mixed while circulating hot water in the bathtub. A bubble generation bathtub (jet bath) that generates dissolved gas-liquid mixed water is known. In addition, a bubble generation bath (Milky Bath) that can mix and discharge fine bubbles with a diameter of several microns to several tens of microns. A generation bathtub (milky jet bath) is also known (for example, Patent Document 1).

たとえば、この特許文献1記載の気泡発生浴槽(浴槽システム)には、浴槽から取り出した浴槽水と空気とを混合溶解させるための気液混合タンク(気液溶解タンク)が具備されている。この気液混合タンク(気液溶解タンク)にて浴槽水に空気を混合溶解させた気液混合水を、浴槽中に噴出させることができるようにしている。   For example, the bubble generation bathtub (tub system) described in Patent Document 1 includes a gas-liquid mixing tank (gas-liquid dissolution tank) for mixing and dissolving bathtub water taken out of the bathtub and air. In this gas-liquid mixing tank (gas-liquid dissolution tank), gas-liquid mixed water in which air is mixed and dissolved in bathtub water can be ejected into the bathtub.

また、気泡発生浴槽に具備されている気液混合タンク(気液溶解タンク)としては、たとえば、図6に例示したような、気液溶解タンク(ア)も知られている。この気液溶解タンク(ア)は、最上層入口側に気液混合水入口(イ)を有するとともに、最下層出口側に気液混合水出口(ウ)を有している。そして、気液溶解タンク(ア)の気液混合水入口(イ)寄りに複数の水平仕切り板(エ)を千鳥状に配設し、水平仕切り板(エ)の水平端部で上下層と連通させて気液混合水用の水平流路を蛇行形成して気液溶解部(オ)を設けている。この気液溶解部(オ)とともに、気液溶解タンク(ア)の気液混合水出口(ウ)寄りに垂直仕切り板(カ)を配設し、垂直仕切り板(カ)の垂直端部で隣接層と連通させて、前記水平流路と連通せる気液混合水用の垂直流路を連続形成して空気分離部(キ)が設けられている。   Moreover, as a gas-liquid mixing tank (gas-liquid dissolution tank) provided in the bubble generation bathtub, for example, a gas-liquid dissolution tank (A) as illustrated in FIG. 6 is also known. The gas-liquid dissolution tank (A) has a gas-liquid mixed water inlet (A) on the uppermost layer inlet side and a gas-liquid mixed water outlet (U) on the lowermost layer outlet side. A plurality of horizontal partition plates (d) are arranged in a staggered manner near the gas-liquid mixed water inlet (a) of the gas-liquid dissolution tank (a), and upper and lower layers are arranged at the horizontal end of the horizontal partition plate (d). The gas-liquid dissolving part (e) is provided by meandering and forming a horizontal flow path for gas-liquid mixed water. Along with this gas-liquid dissolution part (e), a vertical partition plate (f) is placed near the gas-liquid mixed water outlet (c) of the gas-liquid dissolution tank (a), and at the vertical end of the vertical partition plate (f) An air separation part (G) is provided by continuously forming a vertical flow path for gas-liquid mixed water that is communicated with an adjacent layer and communicated with the horizontal flow path.

また、この図6の例では、気液溶解タンク(ア)には、浴槽からの湯である浴槽水と空気を混合溶解させるエゼクタ(ク)が、前記気液混合水入口(イ)の近傍に設置されている。さらに、空気抜き弁(ケ)も設置されており、これにより空気分離部(キ)で余分な空気を排出することができ、効率よく気液混合水を浴槽に噴出させることができる。

しかしながら、上記特許文献1に記載された気泡発生浴槽(浴槽システム)においては、空気を浴槽水に混合溶解させるために、気液混合タンク(気液溶解タンク)内に筒体を設ける必要があった。このため、気泡発生浴槽の使用後(気液混合タンク(気液溶解タンク)の作動停止後)に、浴槽の排水をした時に、常に気液混合タンク(気液溶解タンク)内に残り水が残り、レジオネラ菌や大腸菌等の雑菌やカビ等が繁殖しやすくなり、衛生的に問題があった。   However, in the bubble generation bathtub (tub system) described in Patent Document 1, it is necessary to provide a cylinder in the gas-liquid mixing tank (gas-liquid dissolution tank) in order to mix and dissolve air in the bath water. It was. Therefore, when the bathtub is drained after the use of the bubble generation tub (after the operation of the gas-liquid mixing tank (gas-liquid dissolution tank) is stopped), the remaining water always remains in the gas-liquid mixing tank (gas-liquid dissolution tank). Residual bacteria such as Legionella and Escherichia coli, fungi, and the like were easily propagated, and there were problems with hygiene.

一方、上記図6に例示した気液溶解タンク(ア)では、上記特許文献1のように、気液溶解タンク(ア)内に筒体を設ける必要もなく、効率よく浴槽水と空気とを混合溶解させることができ、しかも、浴槽水に混合溶解しきれなかった余分な空気を排出することもできる。しかしながら、この図6の例の気液溶解タンク(ア)でも、気泡発生浴槽の使用後(気液溶解タンク(ア)の作動停止後)に、浴槽の排水をした時に、気液溶解タンク(ア)内に垂直仕切り板(カ)によって排水を阻止された残り水(コ)が残り、レジオネラ菌、大腸菌等の雑菌やカビ等が繁殖しやすくなり、依然として衛生的に問題があった。   On the other hand, in the gas-liquid dissolution tank (A) illustrated in FIG. 6, there is no need to provide a cylindrical body in the gas-liquid dissolution tank (A) as in Patent Document 1, and bath water and air are efficiently supplied. It is possible to mix and dissolve, and it is also possible to discharge excess air that could not be mixed and dissolved in the bath water. However, even in the gas-liquid dissolution tank (A) of this example of FIG. 6, when the bathtub is drained after the use of the bubble generating bathtub (after the operation of the gas-liquid dissolution tank (A) is stopped), the gas-liquid dissolution tank ( A) Remaining water (ko), which was prevented from draining by the vertical partition plate (mosquito), remained, and bacteria such as Legionella and Escherichia coli and molds were easy to propagate, and there were still problems with hygiene.

そこで、以上のとおりの背景から、この出願の発明は、従来の問題点を解消して、気泡発生浴槽の使用後(気液溶解タンクの作動停止後)の残り水を効率よく排水して、気液溶解タンク内を衛生的に保つことのできる、新しい気泡発生浴槽の気液溶解タンクを提供することを課題としている。   Therefore, from the background as described above, the invention of this application solves the conventional problems and efficiently drains the remaining water after use of the bubble generation bath (after the operation of the gas-liquid dissolution tank is stopped), An object of the present invention is to provide a gas-liquid dissolution tank for a new bubble generation bath that can keep the gas-liquid dissolution tank hygienic.

この出願の発明は、上記の課題を解決するものとして、第1には、最上層入口側に気液混合水入口を有するとともに、最下層出口側に気液混合水出口を有する気液溶解タンクの気液混合水入口寄りに複数の水平仕切り板を千鳥状に配設し、水平仕切り板の水平端部で上下層と連通させて気液混合水用の水平流路を蛇行形成して気液溶解部を設けるとともに、気液溶解タンクの気液混合水出口寄りに垂直仕切り板を配設し、垂直仕切り板の垂直端部で隣接層と連通させて、前記水平流路と連通せる気液混合水用の垂直流路を連続形成して空気分離部を設けてなる気泡発生浴槽の気液溶解タンクにおいて、垂直仕切り板の最下部に空気がショートパスしない排水孔が設けられていることを特徴とする気泡発生浴槽の気液溶解タンクを提供する。   In order to solve the above problems, the invention of this application is firstly a gas-liquid dissolution tank having a gas-liquid mixed water inlet on the uppermost layer inlet side and a gas-liquid mixed water outlet on the lowermost layer outlet side. A plurality of horizontal partition plates are arranged in a staggered manner near the gas-liquid mixed water inlet, and the horizontal end of the horizontal partition plate communicates with the upper and lower layers to meander the horizontal flow path for the gas-liquid mixed water. In addition to providing a liquid dissolving part, a vertical partition plate is disposed near the gas-liquid mixed water outlet of the gas-liquid dissolution tank, and communicates with the adjacent layer at the vertical end of the vertical partition plate so as to communicate with the horizontal flow path. In the gas-liquid dissolution tank of the bubble generation bath, which has a vertical flow path for liquid mixture water and is provided with an air separation part, a drain hole that does not allow air to short-pass is provided at the bottom of the vertical partition plate A gas-liquid dissolution tank for a bubble generation bathtub is provided.

また、この出願の発明は、第2は、排水孔の面積は、気液溶解部と空気分離部との境界部近傍の流路であるメイン流路の面積よりも小さいことを特徴とする気泡発生浴槽の気液溶解タンクを提供する。   In the invention of this application, the second feature is that the area of the drain hole is smaller than the area of the main flow path, which is the flow path in the vicinity of the boundary between the gas-liquid dissolving part and the air separation part. A gas-liquid dissolution tank for a generation bath is provided.

上記のとおりのこの出願の第1の発明の気液溶解タンクによれば、気泡発生浴槽の使用後(気泡発生装置の作動停止後)における気液溶解タンク内の残り水を排水孔から効率よく排水して、気液溶解タンク内を衛生的に保つことができる。   According to the gas-liquid dissolution tank of the first invention of this application as described above, the remaining water in the gas-liquid dissolution tank after the use of the bubble generation bath (after the operation of the bubble generation device is stopped) is efficiently removed from the drain hole. By draining, the gas-liquid dissolution tank can be kept hygienic.

また、第2の発明の気液溶解タンクによれば、第1の発明と同様の効果に加え、気泡発生浴槽に備えられた気泡発生装置の使用時(気泡発生時)に、空気が排水孔から流出するショートパスを確実に阻止しつつ、残り水を排水孔から効率よく排水することができる。   Further, according to the gas-liquid dissolution tank of the second invention, in addition to the same effects as those of the first invention, when the bubble generating device provided in the bubble generating bathtub is used (when bubbles are generated), the air is drained. The remaining water can be efficiently drained from the drain hole while reliably preventing the short path flowing out from the drain.

この出願の発明は、上記のとおりの特徴をもつものであるが、以下に、添付した図面に沿って、この出願の発明の実施形態について詳細かつ具体的に説明する。   The invention of this application has the features as described above. Hereinafter, embodiments of the invention of this application will be described in detail and specifically with reference to the accompanying drawings.

図1は、この出願の発明における気液溶解タンクを模式的に例示した断面図である。図2は、図1のA−A断面図である。図3は、図1のZ−Z断面図である。   FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view schematically illustrating a gas-liquid dissolution tank in the invention of this application. FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line AA of FIG. FIG. 3 is a ZZ cross-sectional view of FIG.

図1に例示したように、この出願の発明における気液溶解タンク(1)は、最上層入口側に気液混合水入口(2)を有するとともに、最下層出口側に気液混合水出口(3)を有している。そして、気液溶解タンク(1)の気液混合水入口(2)寄りに複数の水平仕切り板(4)を千鳥状に配設し、水平仕切り板(4)の水平端部で上下層と連通させて気液混合水用の水平流路を蛇行形成して気液溶解部(5)を設けている。つまり、気液溶解部(5)の各層の一端には、エゼクタ(9)により浴槽水と空気とを混合して生成される気液混合水が流入する流入開口部(41)が形成されているとともに、他端には、この流入開口部(41)から流入する気液混合水が流れ出る流出開口部(42)が形成されている。このため、上層の流出開口部(42)と下層の流入開口部(41)とが連通しており、気液混合水は、矢印で示したように水平流路を蛇行状に流れる。また、特に、最上層では、気液混合水入口(2)の近傍には、上記のエゼクタ(9)が設置され、このエゼクタ(9)を通じて、気液混合水が気液溶解部(5)(気液溶解タンク(1))内へと流入される。   As illustrated in FIG. 1, the gas-liquid dissolution tank (1) in the invention of this application has a gas-liquid mixed water inlet (2) on the uppermost layer inlet side and a gas-liquid mixed water outlet ( 3). A plurality of horizontal partition plates (4) are arranged in a staggered manner near the gas-liquid mixing water inlet (2) of the gas-liquid dissolution tank (1), and upper and lower layers are arranged at the horizontal end of the horizontal partition plate (4). The gas-liquid dissolving part (5) is provided by meandering and forming a horizontal flow path for the gas-liquid mixed water. That is, at one end of each layer of the gas-liquid dissolving part (5), an inflow opening (41) into which gas-liquid mixed water generated by mixing the bathtub water and air by the ejector (9) flows is formed. At the other end, an outflow opening (42) through which the gas-liquid mixed water flowing in from the inflow opening (41) flows out is formed. For this reason, the upper-layer outflow opening (42) and the lower-layer inflow opening (41) communicate with each other, and the gas-liquid mixed water flows in a meandering manner in the horizontal flow path as indicated by an arrow. In particular, in the uppermost layer, the ejector (9) is installed in the vicinity of the gas-liquid mixed water inlet (2), and the gas-liquid mixed water passes through the ejector (9). It flows into (gas-liquid dissolution tank (1)).

このような気液溶解部(5)とともに、気液溶解タンク(1)の気液混合水出口(3)寄りに垂直仕切り板(6)を配設し、垂直仕切り板(6)の垂直端部で隣接層と連通させて、前記水平流路と連通せる気液混合水用の垂直流路を連続形成して空気分離部(7)が設けられている。そして、この垂直仕切り板(6)の最下部には空気がショートパスしない程度の大きさの排水孔(8)が設けられている。この空気分離部(7)では、空気分離部(7)の上部、より詳しくは気液溶解タンク(1)の外側に設置されている空気抜き弁(11)により、気液混合水に混合溶解しきれなかった、余分な空気を排出している。   Along with such a gas-liquid dissolving part (5), a vertical partition plate (6) is disposed near the gas-liquid mixed water outlet (3) of the gas-liquid dissolution tank (1), and the vertical end of the vertical partition plate (6). An air separation section (7) is provided by continuously forming a vertical flow path for gas-liquid mixed water that communicates with an adjacent layer at the section and communicates with the horizontal flow path. And the drain hole (8) of the magnitude | size which is the extent which air does not carry out a short path | pass is provided in the lowest part of this vertical partition (6). In this air separation part (7), it is mixed and dissolved in the gas-liquid mixed water by the air vent valve (11) installed at the upper part of the air separation part (7), more specifically, outside the gas-liquid dissolution tank (1). Excess air was exhausted.

前記エゼクタ(9)で浴槽水と空気とが混合されて生成された気液混合水は、矢印で示したように気液溶解部(5)の千鳥状の水平流路を通じて流れ、ついで、この水平流路と連続形成されている空気分離部(7)の垂直流路を通過し、気液溶解タンク(1)の気液混合水出口(3)から気泡発生浴槽へと流れていく。   The gas-liquid mixed water produced by mixing the bathtub water and air in the ejector (9) flows through the staggered horizontal flow path of the gas-liquid dissolving part (5) as shown by the arrow, and then this It passes through the vertical flow path of the air separation part (7) formed continuously with the horizontal flow path, and flows from the gas-liquid mixed water outlet (3) of the gas-liquid dissolution tank (1) to the bubble generating bathtub.

そして、気泡発生浴槽の使用後、すなわち、気液溶解タンク(1)を備えた気泡発生装置(後述)の作動停止後には、垂直仕切り板(6)の最下部に設けられた排水孔(8)により、効率よく残り水を排水することができる。このため、レジオネラ菌、大腸菌等の雑菌、さらにカビ等の繁殖を抑制することができ、気液溶解タンク(1)内を衛生的に保つことができる。   And after use of a bubble generation bathtub, ie, after an operation stop of a bubble generation device (after-mentioned) provided with a gas-liquid dissolution tank (1), a drainage hole (8 provided in the lowest part of a vertical partition plate (6) (8) ), The remaining water can be drained efficiently. For this reason, miscellaneous bacteria such as Legionella and Escherichia coli as well as the growth of mold and the like can be suppressed, and the gas-liquid dissolution tank (1) can be kept hygienic.

なお、この出願の発明における気液溶解タンク(1)の底面、すなわち気液溶解部(5)の上下層構造の最下層における底面には、気液溶解タンク(1)の気液混合水出口(3)側に向かって適度な下り勾配(水切り勾配)を形成させてもよい。この下り勾配(水切り勾配)により、気液溶解タンク(1)内の残り水は排水孔(8)に向かって流れやすくなり、さらに効率のよい排水を実現することができる。   In addition, on the bottom surface of the gas-liquid dissolution tank (1) in the invention of this application, that is, the bottom surface in the lowermost layer of the upper-lower layer structure of the gas-liquid dissolution part (5), the gas-liquid mixture water outlet of the gas-liquid dissolution tank (1) (3) An appropriate downward gradient (draining gradient) may be formed toward the side. Due to this downward slope (draining slope), the remaining water in the gas-liquid dissolution tank (1) can easily flow toward the drain hole (8), and more efficient drainage can be realized.

この出願の発明における気液溶解タンク(1)において、図2に例示したように、垂直仕切り板(6)の最下部に設けられている排水孔(8)は、気泡発生装置の使用時(気泡発生時)に空気が排水孔(8)から流出しない程度で、また、排水に支障を与えない、つまり、排水が確実に行われる程度のサイズとする必要がある。より具体的に説明すると、図3に例示したように、排水孔(8)の断面積(S1)が、気液溶解部(5)と空気分離部(7)との境界部近傍の流路であるメイン流路(10)の断面積(S2)よりも小さくなるように設けることで、気泡発生装置の使用時(気泡発生時)に空気が排水孔(8)から流出(ショートパス)することなく、効率よく気泡もしくは微細気泡を発生させることができる。   In the gas-liquid dissolution tank (1) of the invention of this application, as illustrated in FIG. 2, the drain hole (8) provided at the lowermost part of the vertical partition plate (6) is used when the bubble generating device is used ( It is necessary to set the size so that the air does not flow out from the drain hole (8) when bubbles are generated) and does not interfere with the drainage, that is, the drainage is surely performed. More specifically, as illustrated in FIG. 3, the cross-sectional area (S1) of the drain hole (8) is a flow path in the vicinity of the boundary between the gas-liquid dissolving part (5) and the air separation part (7). By providing it so as to be smaller than the cross-sectional area (S2) of the main flow path (10), air flows out from the drain hole (8) (short path) when the bubble generating device is used (when bubbles are generated). Therefore, it is possible to efficiently generate bubbles or fine bubbles.

図4は、この出願の発明における気液溶解タンクを利用した浴槽システム構成例を模式的に例示した断面図である。図5は、図4の浴槽システム構成例を例示した全体斜視図である。   FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view schematically illustrating an example of a bathtub system configuration using the gas-liquid dissolution tank in the invention of this application. FIG. 5 is an overall perspective view illustrating a configuration example of the bathtub system in FIG. 4.

図4および図5に例示したように、この出願の発明における気液溶解タンク(1)を利用した浴槽システムにおいては、気泡発生浴槽(B)の近傍外部に具備されている操作スイッチ(12)により、気泡発生浴槽(B)に備えられている気泡発生装置(M)を作動開始/作動停止することができる。この気泡発生装置(M)は、気泡発生浴槽(B)の浴槽水(W)中で気泡、もしくは、微細気泡を発生させるための装置であり、上記の実施例のような気液溶解タンク(1)を備えている。   As illustrated in FIGS. 4 and 5, in the bathtub system using the gas-liquid dissolution tank (1) in the invention of this application, the operation switch (12) provided outside in the vicinity of the bubble generating bathtub (B). Thus, the bubble generating device (M) provided in the bubble generating bathtub (B) can be started / stopped. This bubble generating device (M) is a device for generating bubbles or fine bubbles in the bath water (W) of the bubble generating bathtub (B). 1).

この気泡発生装置(M)を作動させると、ポンプ(13)が稼動して、気泡発生浴槽(B)中の浴槽水(W)が吸込み口(14)から吸込まれて給水接続管(15)を通じて、エゼクタ(9)へ流入される。これと同時に、空気吸込み口(16)から吸込まれた空気が給気接続管(17)を通じて、エゼクタ(9)へ送り込まれる。このとき、空気の逆流を防止するために逆止弁(18)が設置されている。   When this bubble generating device (M) is operated, the pump (13) is operated, and the bathtub water (W) in the bubble generating bathtub (B) is sucked from the suction port (14), and the water supply connecting pipe (15). Through the ejector (9). At the same time, the air sucked from the air suction port (16) is sent to the ejector (9) through the air supply connection pipe (17). At this time, a check valve (18) is installed to prevent the backflow of air.

このようにして、エゼクタ(9)に流入された浴槽水(W)と空気とが混合溶解されて気液混合水として、矢印に示したように、気液溶解タンク(1)内を流れていく。そして、気液溶解タンク(1)の気液混合水出口(3)から流れ出た気液混合水は、噴出接続管(19)を通じてベンチュリ(20)に流入して、吐出口(21)から吐出(噴出)され、浴槽水(W)中で、気泡もしくは微細気泡を発生させることができる。   In this way, the bathtub water (W) and the air that have flowed into the ejector (9) are mixed and dissolved to flow into the gas-liquid dissolution tank (1) as indicated by the arrows as gas-liquid mixed water. Go. The gas-liquid mixed water flowing out from the gas-liquid mixed water outlet (3) of the gas-liquid dissolution tank (1) flows into the venturi (20) through the jet connection pipe (19) and is discharged from the discharge port (21). (Spouting) and generating bubbles or fine bubbles in the bath water (W).

そして、図1から図3の実施例にて説明したとおり、垂直仕切り板(6)の最下部に設けられている排水孔(8)により、気泡発生装置(M)の作動停止後でも、気液溶解タンク(1)内に残った残り水を噴出接続管(19)を通じて気泡発生浴槽(B)へと効率よく排水することができる。これにより、レジオネラ菌や大腸菌等の雑菌やカビ等の繁殖を抑制でき、気液溶解タンク(1)内を衛生的に保つことができる。   As described in the embodiment of FIGS. 1 to 3, the drainage hole (8) provided in the lowermost part of the vertical partition plate (6) can prevent air bubbles even after the bubble generating device (M) is stopped. The remaining water remaining in the liquid dissolution tank (1) can be efficiently drained to the bubble generation bath (B) through the ejection connection pipe (19). Thereby, propagation of miscellaneous bacteria such as Legionella bacteria and Escherichia coli and fungi can be suppressed, and the gas-liquid dissolution tank (1) can be kept hygienic.
