Description

  The present invention relates to a particle emission device that releases fine particles of water and fragrance in a lump and gives a human visual or olfactory healing, and more particularly to a device using the principle of an air cannon.

  In today's stressful environment, various products have been developed to soothe people. A typical product for the human olfactory organ is an aromatic device.

  Typical examples of the aroma device include an aroma pot that allows a fragrance to be dripped into heated hot water to enjoy the scent, and a diffuser that diffuses liquid fragrance into a room in the form of a mist.

  The aroma pot is inexpensive, but has a drawback that the scent is weak and the concentration and scent presentation timing cannot be controlled.

  Diffusers can generate a strong scent, but they have maintenance problems such as complicated structure and easy contamination, and troublesome cleaning when dirty. In addition, a large amount of fragrance touches the air when the fragrance is atomized, but the fragrance other than that diffused into the air returns to the fragrance tank, so there is a problem that the fragrance in the tank gradually oxidizes and deteriorates .

  As a problem common to both the aroma pot and the diffuser, since the scent diffuses isotropically, if the room is large, if the whole room is filled with the scent, a considerable amount of fragrance is required, which is uneconomical. There is also a problem that it is impossible to present the scent by changing the type of scent.

  In order to solve these problems, a fragrance device using an air cannon has been recently developed. This principle is achieved by injecting mist-like fragrance into a box with an opening using a diffuser, etc., and driving an air pump attached to the box to instantaneously increase the atmospheric pressure in the box, It is released as a mass. By releasing the scented air mass with the human olfactory device as a target, the scent can be efficiently presented.

  However, since a conventional fragrance device using an air cannon uses a cannon with a simple opening in a box, the fragranced air mass that is released may become unstable in shape, After the mass release, there is a problem that the remaining scented air that has not contributed to the mass drifts around the opening.

  If the fragrance using an air cannon is intended for use in highly realistic communication conferences, virtual reality, etc., and it is not necessary to visualize the scent mass, Instability and the remaining fragrance drifting in the vicinity of the opening are not a big problem, but as shown in the present invention described below, by injecting and releasing a visible mist, When a natural healing effect is expected at the same time, it is an extremely important issue to stably release the mass of fine particles in a beautiful shape.

  In addition, a conventional fragrance device using an air cannon has a structure in which an air pump is integrally attached to a barrel and injects a mist-like fragrance into the turret. The inside of the cylinder is easily contaminated, and when it is contaminated, there is a problem that cleaning is troublesome and maintenance is poor.

  In particular, when a natural fragrance (natural fragrance) known as a high-quality fragrance is used, since there are many organic substances, the remaining residue often becomes a sticky oily substance, which is troublesome to clean.

  Various aromatic devices have been developed so far, but it is pointed out that maintenance is poor as a reason why they are not so popular. The aroma apparatus using the air cannon is a particularly serious problem because of its complicated structure.

  In addition, the concept of scent switching has been proposed for conventional fragrances using air cannons, but proposals for specific mechanisms that can switch scent at high speed and have good maintainability have not yet been reported. Absent.

  As described above, conventional aroma pots, diffusers, air gun-type aroma devices, and the like have functional problems in terms of healing effects, problems with the perfume economy, and maintenance problems.

  The present invention intends to solve the following problems in an air cannon type particle emission device mainly used as an aromatic device.

  (1) Obtain a structure or driving method that discharges a lump of fine particles in a beautiful shape stably and with good reproducibility. This improves visual and olfactory presentation characteristics, makes it possible to use the fragrance efficiently and economically, and enhances the healing effect. In other words, the basic function is improved.

  (2) A structure with good maintainability that is less likely to be contaminated by the remaining residue of fine particles and that can be easily cleaned even if it becomes dirty. This makes it possible to comfortably use natural fragrances that have a high-class feeling but are likely to cause residual wrinkles.

  (3) A structure or driving method that can switch fragrances and further enhance the olfactory healing effect is obtained. In other words, it is highly functional.

  (4) Use beautiful interior design.

Means 1 for solving the problem

A fine particle emission device for solving the above problems is
The gun barrel (10),
Means (30) for injecting water or fragrance particles into the barrel;
An air pump (20) for instantaneously increasing the air pressure in the barrel, generating an air flow in the barrel, and discharging the water or fragrance particles as a lump from the barrel opening;
Means (26) for driving and controlling the air pump;
An air cannon type particle emission device (1) comprising:
The gun barrel has a sharp emission angle at the gun barrel opening, is hung from the gun opening to the gun barrel abdomen, and the cross-sectional area of the gun barrel increases smoothly.
The gun barrel and the air pump are connected via a desorption mechanism (50),
The means for injecting the water or fragrance fine particles comprises a container (31) for storing the water or fragrance and a means (32) for volatilizing the water or fragrance.

  When the emission angle of the barrel is defined as the angle between the particle emission axis of the barrel and the longitudinal direction of the outer wall surface of the barrel at the tip of the barrel, the emission angle ranges from 0 to 45 degrees, even among acute angles. Is desirable.

  Further, the smooth increase in the cross-sectional area of the cannon is that the cross-sectional area from the opening toward the abdomen is increased in proportion to 1 to the fourth power with respect to the distance from the opening. It is desirable.

  The desorption mechanism part (50) is constituted by an insertion mechanism (51), and either the gun barrel or the air pump can be inserted into the other. For example, the cannon can be connected by being inserted, that is, inserted around the casing of the air pump. The barrel can be replaced with another shape through the desorption mechanism.

  Further, as the barrel, a tip (17) in which the vicinity of the opening at the tip is bent like a “vine neck” (17) may be used, and the barrel may be configured to be rotatable by the detachable mechanism portion.

  The air pump includes a housing, a conical membrane (22) housed so as to block a cross section of the housing, and an electromagnetic mechanism (24, 25) that presses the vicinity of the center of the cone from the outside. May be.

  Furthermore, the conical film can be made water-repellent, and a water droplet passage mechanism (27) can be provided in the vicinity of the central portion of the cone. Further, a water droplet passage mechanism (53) can be provided at the connection portion between the barrel and the casing.

Action and Effect of Solution 1

  The fragrance with the above structure releases a lump of perfume fine particles or a mixture of perfume and water fine particles from the gun barrel. If the gun barrel is pointed at a person, a small amount of perfume is sufficient to stimulate the olfaction. Can be presented and is efficient. Moreover, since the consumption is small, high-quality natural fragrances such as rose and neroli that have a high healing effect can be economically used.

  When the cross-sectional area of the cannon increases smoothly from the cannon opening to the abdomen, and the radiation angle of the opening is an acute angle, the air flow from the inside of the cannon to the opening There is little disturbance, and the atmospheric pressure increases smoothly. Accordingly, when the air flow is pushed out from the opening, a stable vortex is likely to be generated in the vicinity of the opening, and a cluster of fine particles having a beautiful shape is easily generated. Naturally reproducibility is also high.

  The fact that the mass of fine particles is prepared means that the mass can be distant and can be used in a wide range. In the case of mist-like visible fine particles, it is visually beautiful. Moreover, since the lump of fragrance can be stably conveyed to a human olfactory organ, the olfactory presentation characteristic is also good.

  In particular, when the radial angle of the gun barrel is in the range of 0 to 45 degrees, the increase in cross-sectional area from the opening to the abdomen of the gun barrel is 1 with respect to the distance from the opening. If it changes in proportion to the fourth power, not only is the air turbulence inside the gun barrel small, but also when the air current is pushed out from the opening, an air current is also generated on the outer surface of the gun barrel, The part also contributes to the generation of fine particle mass. The fact that there are many airflows that contribute to the generation of the fine particle mass means that the fine particle mass is generated more stably and beautifully, and the above effect increases.

  In the above structure, by providing the desorption mechanism between the gun barrel and the air pump, the inside of the gun barrel and the inside of the air pump can be easily exposed. In addition, a mechanically complicated fine particle injection mechanism can be easily exposed. The exposed inside of the barrel and the air pump can be washed with water, and is easy to maintain.

  The inside of the cannon is composed of the inner wall of the cannon and the conical membrane of the air pump, but since these surfaces are smooth, soot of fine particles such as fragrances is hardly attached in the first place.

  Since the air pump and the gun barrel can be separated by the desorption mechanism, the gun barrel can be replaced with various shapes. That is, it can be selected according to the place of application and application.

  For example, you can use the barrel to the ceiling and enjoy watching the donut-shaped mist that rises, enjoy the scent that spreads around, use the barrel to the human olfactory, and enjoy the strong scent, It is possible to use the barrel with the gun barrel facing down to enjoy a scented shower. It can be used in a variety of ways and has a high healing effect.

  In addition, if the shape of the gun barrel opening is changed to a polygon, a mass of fine particles having a variety of shapes can be released, and the healing effect is high.

  When the tip of the cannon is bent like a "crane neck", the cannon itself is geometrically beautiful and has an interior. If a highly-designed picture is drawn on the cannon, the healing effect will be even higher.

  Furthermore, if the crane-necked barrel can be rotated by the desorption mechanism, the discharge direction of the lump of fine particles can be changed. It is also possible to swing the head automatically by motor control. Both interior and healing effects are high.

  If the air pump is formed of a conical membrane, the membrane can push air out at a high speed without bending by moving the central axis of the conical membrane back and forth in the axial direction. Contributes to the production of beautiful fine particles.

  If the cone-shaped membrane is made water-repellent and a water droplet passage mechanism is provided near the center of the cone-shaped membrane, even if water droplets adhere to the gun barrel during operation, the droplets collect at the center of the cone. Therefore, it can discharge | emit out of a gun barrel from the said water droplet passage mechanism. Therefore, the operation is stable and maintenance is good.

  Further, when a water droplet passage mechanism is provided in the desorption mechanism portion that connects the gun barrel and the air pump, the same effect can be obtained because the water droplet can be discharged out of the gun barrel.

Means 2 for solving the problem

  In the means 1 for solving the above-mentioned problems, the means for injecting fine particles of water or fragrance into the cannon can be provided in the vicinity of the opening of the cannon.

  The fine particle injection means in the vicinity of the opening of the cannon can be a fragrance fine particle generating means (40) having a shape forming a part of the cannon.

  Further, the means for injecting water or fragrance fine particles into the gun barrel includes means for generating water fine particles (30; first fine particle generation means) and means for generating fragrance fine particles (40; second fine particle generation means). The second fine particle generating means can be provided in the vicinity of the opening of the gun barrel.

  It is desirable that the means for injecting water or fragrance fine particles into the barrel is detachable from the barrel.

Action and effect of Solution 2

  When the perfume fine particle generating means is provided in the vicinity of the gun barrel opening, the remaining residue of the perfume fine particles hardly contaminates the back of the gun barrel. In addition, the air pump below the barrel is less likely to get dirty. Therefore, maintainability is good.

  When the perfume fine particle generating means forms a part of the barrel opening, the perfume fine particles are easily caught in the vortex of the air and easily discharged as a scent ball.

  When the first and second particle generation means are used, water particles injected into the gun barrel by the first particle generation means are generated by the second particle generation means in the vicinity of the gun barrel opening. It is mixed with perfume fine particles and released from the opening. Since the water fine particles can be visualized, the fragrance fine particles released together with the water fine particles can be made into a “visible scent”.

  Further, when the fragrance fine particle generating means has a shape forming a part of the gun barrel and is provided so as to cover the gun barrel, the fragrance fine particle generating means can be removed from the gun barrel and washed. Because it can be done, it is easy to maintain. Therefore, a clean and clear scent can always be enjoyed.

Means 3 for solving the problem

A cannon,
Means for injecting fine particles of water or fragrance into the barrel,
An air pump that instantaneously increases the air pressure in the barrel, generates an air flow in the barrel, and discharges the water or fragrance particles as a lump from the barrel opening;
Means for driving and controlling the air pump;
An air cannon type particle emission device comprising:
The means for injecting the water or fragrance fine particles comprises a container for containing the water or fragrance and a means for volatilizing the water or fragrance,
As a means for volatilizing the water or the fragrance, an ultrasonic vibrator (32, 85) or a heating element (651, 664) is used as a drive source so that the fine particles in the gun barrel have a predetermined concentration. The power of the drive source or the number of times of driving the air pump is controlled.

  In the above, when the fine particle concentration in the gun barrel and the number of times the air pump is driven are specified by the user, the power of the driving source necessary to maintain the fine particle concentration is estimated and supplied. Can be controlled.

  In the above, it is possible to measure whether or not the fine particle concentration in the gun barrel is within a predetermined range, and to control the power of the driving source or the number of times of driving the air pump so as to be within the range.

  When an ultrasonic transducer is used as the drive source, the fine particle concentration in the gun barrel may be detected by a photocoupler (90, 91) provided in the gun barrel.

  For the power control of the drive source, there can be used a method of controlling by the integrated value per unit time of the voltage / current product in addition to the method of controlling by the voltage / current product in the continuous drive.

  When a heating element is used as the driving source, a carbon-based material that emits far infrared rays having a wavelength of 2.53 to 3.0 μm or 5.0 to 7.0 μm is suitable for the element.

Action and effect of Solution 3

  When an ultrasonic transducer is used as the drive source, the particle diameter can be made visible by controlling the drive frequency of the ultrasonic transducer. That is, a visible mist can be created. The appearance of mist-like particles in a ring shape and floating in the air has a visual healing effect.

  Further, when water particles are reduced by ultrasonic vibration, a large amount of negative ions can be generated. When the negative ions are released toward the human olfactory organ, they are easily taken into the body. When negative ions are taken into the body, they have an effect of reducing blood viscosity, a refreshing effect, and an immunity improving effect.

  Another advantage of using an ultrasonic vibrator is that when water and oily perfume contained in a container are vibrated with ultrasonic waves, the water and perfume are not separated but volatilize as a whole. Therefore, by adding water to the fragrance, the concentration of the fragrance fine particles released from the cannon can be adjusted appropriately.

  When a heating element is used as the driving source, the fragrance is heated from the inside by infrared rays or electromagnetic waves, and therefore becomes smaller particles. Since even a small amount of fragrance has a large volume, if the fine particles are presented to a human olfactory device by an air cannon, an extremely efficient fragrance can be configured. Since sufficient olfactory stimulation can be obtained even with a small amount of fragrance, an expensive natural fragrance (natural fragrance) can be used efficiently and economically. In general, expensive fragrances give off a good scent and have a high olfactory healing effect.

  When the heating element emits far-infrared rays of 2.53-3.0 μm or 5.0-7.0 μm, the far-infrared energy is efficiently absorbed by the liquid perfume. This is because water molecules in the liquid fragrance resonate at the wavelength and cause strong resonance absorption. Therefore, the liquid volatilizes efficiently with less energy.

  In particular, a wavelength of 6.27 μm breaks up a cluster of water while resonating with water molecules and generates a large amount of negative ions. Accordingly, water fine particles containing a large amount of negative ions can be generated. When the water volatilizes, the fragrance dissolved in the water also volatilizes.

  When the liquid fragrance is made into fine particles with an ultrasonic vibrator and further heated with far infrared rays, a fragrance can be seen and a strong olfactory stimulator can be made.

  If driving control is performed so that the fine particles in the gun barrel have a predetermined concentration, the ring of the fine particles has a beautiful shape, and the visual healing effect is enhanced. In addition, in the case of fine particles containing a fragrance, a stable concentration of fragrance can always be presented to a human olfactory sensation, so that the olfactory healing effect is high.

  When the fine particles in the gun barrel exceed the prescribed concentration, it becomes supersaturated and water droplets are formed on the wall of the gun barrel, and fragrance fine particles that have not become a mass of fine particles adhere to the gun barrel and air pump, Although contamination may occur, controlling the concentration of fine particles in the cannon does not produce a large amount of useless fine particles that do not contribute to the aggregation of the fine particles, so that the cannon and the air pump are not easily contaminated. Therefore, maintenance is easy.

Means 4 for solving the problem

A cannon,
Means for injecting fine particles of water or fragrance into the barrel,
An air pump that instantaneously increases the air pressure in the barrel, generates an air flow in the barrel, and discharges the water or fragrance particles as a lump from the barrel opening;
Means for driving and controlling the air pump;
An air cannon type particle emission device comprising:
The means for injecting the water or fragrance fine particles comprises a small container (31, 89) for containing the water or fragrance and a means (32, 85) for volatilizing the water or fragrance,
The small container is provided with means (70) for selectively subdividing the contents from a separately provided water or fragrance storage tank (37, 73).

  The small container (89) may be a network structure using a capillary phenomenon or a liquid storage body having a porous structure, and a small amount of water or fragrance may be held in the network or the hole.

Action and Effect of Solution 4

  Since the contents are subdivided into small containers from the water or perfume storage tank and then volatilized, only the subdivided perfume touches the air, and the perfume in the storage tank does not touch the air. Therefore, there is little deterioration of a fragrance | flavor. Natural fragrances are easily degraded by oxidation, but oxidation can be prevented by this means, so that expensive natural fragrances can be used with confidence. Of course, maintenance is also good.

  Moreover, since the fragrance | flavor of the said small container is consumed for a short time, when the said fragrance | flavor is consumed, a fragrance can be switched sequentially by subdividing another fragrance | flavor from the fragrance | flavor accumulation tank into the said small container. Therefore, it is possible to produce various scents as time passes. The olfactory healing effect is high.

  In addition, if a liquid storage body having a mesh structure or a porous structure using a capillary phenomenon is used as the small container, an extremely small amount of water or fragrance can be held in a predetermined place. Energy can be concentrated on the liquid, and it can be volatilized and consumed efficiently. Therefore, high-speed switching to another fragrance is possible.

  Since the scent can be switched in a short time, it can be used in combination with video and music. In this case, the healing effect is further increased.

Means 5 for solving the problem

A cannon,
Means for injecting fine particles of water or fragrance into the barrel,
An air pump that instantaneously increases the air pressure in the barrel, generates an air flow in the barrel, and discharges the water or fragrance particles as a lump from the barrel opening;
Means for driving and controlling the air pump;
An air cannon type particle emission device comprising:
In the means (26) for driving and controlling the air pump, one driving pattern consists of a part that pushes out the pump at a predetermined speed for creating a lump of fine particles, and a state where the lump of fine particles is pushed out while leaving the barrel. And a pull-in part that returns the remaining fine particles that have not contributed to the mass into the gun barrel, and each part may be controllable.

Action and Effect of Solution 5

  In the air pump drive method, the drive pattern is controlled by dividing it into three parts. The first push-out part works to instantaneously increase the pressure inside the gun barrel and to make sure that a fine particle mass is created. To do. The second holding part acts so as not to disturb the mass until the mass of fine particles is firmly separated from the gun barrel. The third drawing-in part removes the remaining fine particles not contributing to the mass in the gun barrel. Acts to get back to. Therefore, the fine particles are less likely to diffuse around the opening and impair the aesthetics.

  The driving pattern is effective for generating a mass of fine particles having a stable shape at all times. Moreover, since the shape is stable, the driving force of the air pump can be widened. It can generate beautiful fine particle clusters at low speed and high speed, so it has wide application range and high healing effect. It can be used for various fragrance presentation effects.

Means 6 for solving the problem

A cannon,
Means for injecting fine particles of water or fragrance into the barrel,
An air pump that instantaneously increases the air pressure in the barrel, generates an air flow in the barrel, and discharges the water or fragrance particles as a lump from the barrel opening;
Means for driving and controlling the air pump;
An air cannon type particle emission device comprising:
In the means (261) for driving and controlling the air pump, the frequency at which the predetermined interval for discharging the mass of fine particles appears can be controlled so as to be approximately proportional to the reciprocal of the discharge frequency.

Action and Effect of Solution 6

  The solving means 6 gives a property proportional to the reciprocal of the frequency, that is, 1 / F fluctuation, to the discharge interval of the mass of fine particles. 1 / F fluctuation is a fundamental property of the natural world. Therefore, when the scented fine particles are released by shaking 1 / F, an impression that matches the rhythm of the natural world is obtained both olfactory and visually, and the healing effect is high.

Means 7 for solving the problem

A cannon,
Means for injecting fine particles of water or fragrance into the barrel,
An air pump that instantaneously increases the air pressure in the barrel, generates an air flow in the barrel, and discharges the water or fragrance particles as a lump from the barrel opening;
Means for driving and controlling the air pump;
An air cannon type particle emission device comprising:
The means (261) for driving and controlling the air pump can control the speed at which the particles are released, and the speed can be controlled so as to fluctuate around a preset center setting speed. .

  Regarding the fluctuation around the center setting speed, it is desirable that the frequency at which the predetermined speed appears is proportional to the reciprocal of the absolute value of “the predetermined speed−the center setting speed”.

Action and effect of Solution 7

  When the release speed of the particles is controlled so as to swing around a preset center setting speed, the reaching distance of the particles swings around a predetermined distance. Therefore, it is possible to create a scent space with a change in concentration. The presentation of scent with changes gives people interest and interest and has a healing effect.

  Further, the healing effect is further enhanced by making the frequency at which the predetermined speed appears proportional to the reciprocal of the absolute value of “the predetermined speed−the center setting speed”.

Means 8 for solving the problem

A cannon,
Means for injecting fine particles of water or fragrance into the barrel,
An air pump that instantaneously increases the air pressure in the barrel, generates an air flow in the barrel, and discharges the water or fragrance particles as a lump from the barrel opening;
Means for driving and controlling the air pump;
An air cannon type particle emission device comprising:
Means (60, 651, 63, 64, 661, 664) for illuminating the inside of the gun barrel or the mass of fine particles emitted from the gun barrel can be provided.

  The illuminating means is composed of light sources (60, 651, 664) that generate heat, illuminates the cannon from the inside, and can also serve as means for volatilizing water or fragrance by heat and infrared rays emitted from the light source. .

  The illumination means is composed of blue, green, and red LEDs (63, 64), and the LEDs can be driven by changing the intensity of the three colors.

  In the means for illuminating, the frequency of the period in which the predetermined illumination intensity appears can be controlled to be proportional to the inverse of the illumination intensity frequency.

Action and Effect of Solution 8

  Since the lighting means can add various colors to the mass of fine particles including the cannon and the scent, not only the sense of smell but also the scent can be enjoyed visually. The interior is high.

  By using a light source such as a light bulb that emits heat or infrared rays for lighting the gun barrel, the fragrance is warmed from the inside, and thus volatilization is promoted. Since the volatilized fragrance has the property of rising, it goes to the opening along the barrel. Here, when the air pump is operated, the perfume fine particles are released as a lump from the opening. Therefore, the part that gets dirty during use is from the abdomen of the gun barrel to the opening, and the lower part of the gun barrel and the air pump part are less likely to get dirty. Of course, maintenance is good.

  Changing the color and intensity of the illuminating light makes it a wonderful interior. In particular, if the frequency of appearance of the light intensity is controlled so as to be proportional to the reciprocal of the frequency, it matches the rhythm of the natural world, so the healing effect is high.

  In addition to producing visible fine particles of water and fragrance using an ultrasonic vibrator, releasing the fine particle mass from the opening, and irradiating light from the bulb in that direction, the fine particle mass is colored. In addition, volatilization of the fine particles is promoted by infrared heat, and olfactory stimulation increases.

  In order to achieve the above object, the present invention can be realized in the following forms.

Further, the outer cover plate 47 and the inner cover plate 49 are provided with special air holes 46 having a conical shape, and an appropriate air flow can be created in the thickness direction of the plates through the air holes.

  Here, the size of the air hole is preferably about 10 μm to 1 mm. The thickness of the mesh-like liquid fragrance storage plate is preferably about 50 μm to 2 mm.

  The fragrance accumulated in the occlusion plate 48 volatilizes into fragrance fine particles, and is released from the air hole both inside and outside the gun barrel. The perfume fine particles become a scented lump (scented ball) by the operation of the air pump, and the operation principle will be described later.

  The fragrance supply to the barrel-shaped fragrance fine particle generation unit 40 can be manually supplied from a part of the outer cover plate 47 with a dropper or the like, but the fragrance in the liquid fragrance tank 41 is supplied to the fragrance supply pipe 42. Alternatively, the fragrance supply pump 43 may supply automatically.

  In addition, the method of volatilizing the fragrance of the fragrance storage plate 48 may be a natural volatilization method, but by using the heat of the light bulb 60 provided in the gun barrel, the barrel-shaped fragrance fine particle generating unit 40 is heated, The fragrance storage plate 48 may be heated with heat to promote volatilization.

Reference numeral 62 in FIG. 2 denotes a device that controls driving of the light bulb. When the barrel-shaped fragrance fine particle generation unit 40 is warmed using the heat of the light bulb, a soft scent is obtained.

  Further, a volatilizing means 44 is provided in a mechanism portion for inserting the barrel-shaped fragrance fine particle generating section 40 into the gun barrel 10 and driven by a volatilizing means driving device 45 to promote volatilization of the fragrance on the fragrance storage plate 48. May be. A strong and clear scent is obtained.

  Incidentally, as the volatilizing means 44, a method of vibrating the fragrance storage part in the barrel-shaped fragrance fine particle generating unit 40 with an ultrasonic wave or an electric heater for heating the barrel-shaped fragrance fine particle generating unit 40 is used. A method is available.

  Furthermore, as shown in the above-mentioned Japanese Patent Application No. 2002-329005, the mesh-like fragrance storage plate 48 may be formed of a heating element, and the fragrance may be heated by energization.

As described above, the case where the liquid fragrance is used for the barrel-shaped fragrance generating unit 40 in FIG. 1 has been described. However, the liquid fragrance may not be used as long as the fragrance fine particles can be generated around the barrel opening. Good.

  For example, the barrel-shaped fragrance fine particle generation unit 40 can be made by cutting a scented tree such as mandala or sandalwood into a barrel shape. The barrel can also be made of a material that is made by mixing fragrance with resin. In this case, it is not necessary to replenish the fragrance like the liquid fragrance.

  In short, the barrel-shaped fragrance fine particle generating unit 40 may be a part that forms part of the barrel and generates the fragrant fine particles around the barrel opening.

  Next, the desorption mechanism 50 will be described. As described above, the detaching mechanism can be constituted by the barrel insertion mechanism 51 or the like. However, in a normal operation, the detaching mechanism is not accidentally detached, and is snapped to the insertion portion so that it can be easily detached at the time of removal. The key mechanism may be attached.

  In the present embodiment, the air pump and the gun barrel can be separated by the detaching mechanism, so that the gun barrel can be replaced with various shapes. This example will be described later.

  Further, as will be described later in the description of the operation of the present invention, when the inside of the gun barrel is oversaturated and water droplets are generated in the gun barrel, the water droplet passage mechanism 53 is arranged so that the water droplets are discharged out of the gun barrel. You may provide in a part of desorption mechanism.

  Specifically, the water droplet passage mechanism 53 may be provided with a small air hole so that the water droplet is discharged out of the cylinder by gravity. In the present invention, since the lump of fine particles injected into the gun barrel is designed to be discharged from the gun barrel opening, the small air hole means a size that does not affect the basic function. . That is, it means that the hole is sufficiently small compared to the opening of the gun barrel so that the pressure of the gun barrel rises momentarily during the air pump operation.

  Next, the lighting device 60 will be described. The illumination device is used for the purpose of illuminating the inside of the gun barrel, the purpose of illuminating the lump of fine particles coming out of the gun barrel opening, and the purpose of promoting the volatilization of the fragrance as described above. The arrow of bm1 is the light of the lighting device.

  A halogen lamp, an incandescent lamp, etc. are suitable for the above three purposes. Since these generate high heat and far infrared rays are also generated, the action of volatilizing the fragrance is high. In other words, the atmosphere is created by irradiating light to the mass of the cannon and mist-like particles, and at the same time, far-infrared rays are radiated to the fragrance in the cannon or the fragrant fine particles from the cannon Volatilization can be promoted.

  In addition, in the case where only the above-mentioned illumination within the gun barrel or illumination of a lump of fine particles coming out of the gun barrel opening is intended, an illumination device using a semiconductor light emitting element (LED) can also be used. By combining blue, green and red LEDs, it can be illuminated with light of various colors.

Next, the operation principle of the air cannon type particle emitting device 1 of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG .
The water in the small container 31 of the fine particle injection means 30 is volatilized by the ultrasonic vibrator 32 to form a mist, and is directed from the fine particle discharge window 38 toward the abdomen of the barrel or the opening as indicated by an arrow. Get out.

  When the air pump 20 is driven when the fine particles in the gun barrel reach an appropriate concentration, the entire cone-shaped film 22 is lifted up instantaneously, so that the air on the cone-shaped film is pushed into the gun barrel. It is.

As shown in FIG. 1 , the gun barrel of the present invention has a constant cross-sectional area from the attachment / detachment mechanism 50 to the abdomen of the gun barrel, but the cross-sectional area smoothly decreases from the abdomen to the opening 11. .

  Therefore, when the air pump 20 is operated, the pressure inside the cannon gradually increases from the abdomen of the cannon to the opening 11, and the air flow smoothly and quickly toward the cannon opening, and is released at once at the opening. Is done.

  At this time, when the fragrance fine particles K1 are injected into the cannon from the barrel-shaped fragrance fine particle generation unit 40, the fragrance fine particles K1 are mixed with the air containing the mist-like water fine particles W1, It is discharged together from the opening. This air flow is called a main air flow and is indicated by a one-dot chain line (A).

  Thus, when the means for injecting water particles into the gun barrel by the small container 31 and the ultrasonic transducer 32 is the first particle injection means, the gun barrel-shaped fragrance fine particle generating unit 40 is an opening of the gun barrel. The second fine particle injecting means for injecting the perfume fine particles from the vicinity is provided.

  When air is released from the barrel opening, the air pressure suddenly drops at the tip of the opening, so that the air containing the water fine particles and the fragrance fine particles tends to spread outward (A) ) To make a vortex. Since this vortex is produced by being pushed out of the barrel, it advances as “a lump of fine particles (fragrance balls) 300 that look like donuts”.

The barrel shape of the present invention is configured such that the cross-sectional area of the barrel is increased smoothly from the barrel opening to the barrel abdomen, and the radiation angle θ of the barrel is an acute angle. Here, as shown in FIG. 1 , the radiation angle θ is defined as the angle in the longitudinal direction of the outer wall surface of the gun barrel at the tip of the gun barrel with respect to the x axis parallel to the particle emission axis 12.

  When the gun barrel is formed in such a shape, as described above, the air flow from the gun barrel abdomen toward the opening is stabilized, and a finely-shaped cluster of fine particles can always be made.

  Since the inner surface of the cannon changes smoothly, there is little opportunity for dirt such as fragrance residue remaining on the cannon to be clean and easy to maintain.

  Further, the gun barrel radiation angle θ is set in the range of 0 to 45 degrees, and more preferably, the cross-sectional area from the opening to the abdomen of the barrel If it changes in proportion to 1 to 4 times the distance from the opening, there is a characteristic action as shown below.

That is, not only is there less air turbulence inside the barrel, but also when the airflow is pushed out of the opening to form a mass, as shown by the dashed line (a) in FIG. A side airflow is generated, and a part of the side airflow contributes to the generation of the fine particle mass 300.

That is, the fragrance particles K2 in the auxiliary airflow shown in FIG. 1A are entrained in a vortex together with K1 in the main airflow shown in FIG. The fact that there are many airflows that contribute to the generation of fine particle mass means that the fine particle mass is beautifully and stably generated.

FIG. 4 shows the results of experiments on the shape of the scented ball 300 using the radiation angle θ as a parameter. In the figure, the surface of x-axis = 0 corresponds to the surface of the opening. 10 a-o show the cross section which cut the gun barrel vertically. 10a, 10i, and 10u are vertical cross sections of the gun barrel with a radiation angle θ of 0 to 45 degrees. In addition, the size of the opening was tested in the range of 2 cm to 7 cm in diameter.

  The 10-cylinder barrel indicated by a thick solid line in the figure swells in a substantially straight line from the opening toward the abdomen of the barrel. Therefore, the cross-sectional area across the gun barrel increases in proportion to the square of the distance (x-axis) from the opening.

  Similarly, the cross-sectional area of the 10-A gun barrel indicated by the thick dashed-dotted line increases in proportion to the first power with respect to the distance (x-axis) from the opening. The cross section of the 10-cylinder barrel indicated by a thick broken line increases in proportion to the fourth power with respect to the distance from the opening (x axis).

  When the barrels 10a, 10i, and 10u, in which the radiation angle θ is 0 to 45 degrees and the cross-sectional area of the barrel is increasing smoothly from the opening to the abdomen of the barrel, The scented ball 300 having a beautiful shape can be obtained without strictly controlling. This is indicated by a circle.

  On the other hand, as shown in 10o, the radiation angle θ is −10 degrees and the cross-sectional area of the cannon is once reduced and increased from the opening to the abdomen of the cannon, or as shown in 10d. In addition, when using a gun barrel whose radiation angle θ is 80 degrees and the cross-sectional area of the gun barrel increases rapidly from the opening to the abdomen of the gun barrel, the operation of the air pump must be strictly controlled, It was difficult to obtain a fragrant ball 300 having a beautiful shape. This is indicated by a triangle mark.

  The radiation angle θ is highly effective at about 0 to 60 degrees. In particular, at 0 to 45 degrees, a beautiful scented ball can be obtained without strictly controlling the operation of the air pump.

  From the above, the shape of the gun barrel is such that the cross-sectional area of the gun barrel increases smoothly from the gun barrel opening portion to the gun barrel abdomen, and the radiation angle θ of the opening portion is an acute angle, particularly 0 to 45 degrees. It is reasonable to make this range.

  Next, a method for adjusting the fine particle concentration in the gun barrel will be described as another condition for creating a beautiful fine particle mass.

  While the air pump is driven at a predetermined interval, if the concentration of water particles in the gun barrel becomes low, the water particles become difficult to see. On the other hand, when the water fine particle concentration is too high, the inside of the gun barrel is oversaturated, and water droplets may be generated on the wall of the gun barrel. Water drops are undesirable because they can contaminate the device. Therefore, it is desirable to adjust the concentration of water fine particles in the gun barrel to be appropriate.

  The concentration of water fine particles in the cannon can be estimated from the driving power applied to the ultrasonic transducer and the number of times the air pump is driven per unit time. In other words, if the number of times of driving and the concentration of the fine particles are given, an appropriate driving power for the ultrasonic transducer can be determined.

FIG. 5 shows a specific method for controlling the concentration of fine particles in the barrel. It is assumed that the user sets the number of times of driving the air pump per unit time (n) and the concentration (D) of the fine particles.

  In this case, the driving power P of the ultrasonic transducer 32 for maintaining the fine particle concentration in the gun barrel is given by a function g having the product of n and D as a parameter. That is, it is approximated by P = g (n · D).

  If the property of g is obtained in advance by experiments or the like, the optimum driving power P of the ultrasonic transducer 32 can be determined by specifying n and D.

  As a driving method of the ultrasonic transducer, intermittent driving is possible in addition to continuous driving. The drive power can be controlled by a voltage / current product in the case of continuous drive. In the case of intermittent driving, the voltage / current product can be controlled by an integral value per unit time. The interval of the intermittent drive is suitably about 0.5 seconds to several tens of seconds.

  In addition, a photocoupler can be used as another method for estimating the fine particle concentration in the barrel.

For example, in FIG. 1 , 90 is an LED, 91 is a phototransistor, and bm2 is a light beam emitted from the LED. When the fine particles are in the form of mist, the fine particles prevent the light from traveling straight, so the concentration of the fine particles can be estimated by measuring the change in the output of the phototransistor.

FIG. 6 shows a method of estimating the fine particle concentration in the barrel from the output change of the photocoupler and appropriately setting the driving power of the ultrasonic transducer 32.

  The user sets the number of times of driving the air pump per unit time (n) and the concentration of fine particles (D). ΔD is a setting allowable range, and is preset by the system.

  First, an initial value P of ultrasonic driving power is set. The fine particle concentration d in the gun barrel is estimated from the photocoupler output. Here, when d is lower than D−ΔD, the driving power P of the ultrasonic transducer is increased in order to increase the density.

  If d is higher than D + ΔD, it is determined that the concentration is too high and P is lowered. If d is in an appropriate range, the above process is performed again after Δt time.

  Next, a method for removing water droplets outside the gun barrel when water droplets are generated in the gun barrel will be described. When the driving power of the ultrasonic transducer in the gun barrel is too large, the gun barrel may be oversaturated and water droplets may be generated.

A water droplet passage mechanism 27 and a water droplet discharge pipe 28 provided at the bottom of the conical membrane 22 of the air pump in FIG. 1 are for discharging the water droplets.

  As described above, a part of the water droplets in the gun barrel is discharged by the water droplet passage mechanism 53 provided in a part of the desorption mechanism, but when a water droplet that cannot be discharged by the mechanism is generated, the water droplet Reaches the conical membrane of the air pump.

  Since the conical membrane has a concave shape, the water droplets gather in the water droplet passage mechanism 27. 27 has a small hole through which a water droplet passes. Water droplets pass through this hole and are discharged to the outside through the discharge pipe 28.

FIG. 7 shows a second embodiment of the air cannon-type particle emission device of the present invention, in which water and fragrance are put into a small container and volatilized by an ultrasonic vibrator to generate water and fragrance particles in the gun barrel. And a scent-switching type particle emitting device that releases the lump of particles from the opening of the gun barrel.

Depending on the frequency of the ultrasonic transducer, the size of the fine particles can be selected, and a “visible scent” can be created. FIG. 7A is a cross-sectional view, and FIG . 7B is a top view of the air pump.

Hereinafter, in the embodiment of FIG. 7, the components and operations different from those of the embodiment of FIG. 1 will be described. Reference numeral 13 denotes a transparent cannon made of resin, glass or the like, and is rotatably connected to the casing 21 of the air pump 20 via a detaching mechanism 51 having a plug structure.

In FIG. 7A , reference numeral 70 denotes a part of means for injecting fine particles of water or fragrance into the barrel, and is an apparatus for supplying the fragrance to the small container 31. The fragrance supply device 70 includes a fragrance supply pump 71, a fragrance supply pipe 72, a fragrance tank 73, a fragrance supply drive control device 74, and a fragrance selection control device 75.

In FIG. 7-2 , 732, 733, 734, and 735 are other fragrance tanks, and 745 is another fragrance supply drive control device.

  The fragrance supply pump 71 includes a triangular rotary cam mechanism 76 and a rotary cam rotating shaft 77. When the rotary cam rotates counterclockwise, the fragrance in the fragrance supply pipe 72 is pushed out and supplied to the small container 31. The perfume supply pipe uses a material that does not chemically react with the perfume and whose pipe passage is deformed.

  In the perfume supply pump 71, the part in contact with the perfume is only the perfume tank and the perfume supply pipe, and there is no other part in contact therewith. Accordingly, since the fragrance does not come into contact with air until it is supplied to the small container 31, it is less deteriorated by oxidation.

  In addition, extremely small fragrance can be controlled and supplied to the small container 31. In order to mix and supply the fragrance to the small container, the mixing method can be set by the fragrance selection control device 75 and adjusted by the fragrance supply drive control device such as 74 and 745.

  The fragrance dropped into the small container 31 is mixed with the water supplied from the water tank 37. This is indicated by KW0. Since natural fragrances are often oily, the fragrances usually float on the water and are separated, but when KW0 is vibrated ultrasonically by the ultrasonic vibrator 32, the water and the fragrances are mixed and fog Volatilized and released.

  Since water and fragrance are subdivided and volatilized in the small container 31, the fragrance 73 has good storage stability and little deterioration.

  In addition, small containers are rarely soiled with fragrances. Further, when it becomes dirty, the barrel can be removed from the air pump, and the small container 31 can be removed from the air pump, and can be easily cleaned. Therefore, maintainability is good.

  Water and perfume mist particles K1 and W1 are supplied into the barrel, and air containing K1 and W1 is discharged from the opening by the air pump 20. As described above, a cluster 300 of ring-shaped fine particles containing a scent is obtained.

  63 and 64 are LED illumination apparatuses. Since the gun barrel 13 is transparent, the light beams bm3 and bm4 pass through the gun barrel and exit from the opening of the gun barrel.

  The opening of the cannon 13 is a small lens. The light illuminates the mass 300 of the emitted fine particles.

  By using LEDs of three colors of blue, green, and red for each of 63 and 64, the gun barrel can be colored and the scented ball 300 can also be colored. Because it is beautiful, the healing effect is high.

  When a light bulb is used as the illuminating device 60, if the gun barrel 13 is transparent, an aroma device having a lamp function is obtained.

  The light beam bm1 passes through the wall of the cannon 13 and illuminates the surroundings, illuminates the scented ball 300, and infrared rays promote volatilization of the scented ball.

  The cannon is beautifully shining, and the scented ball is warm in color, providing a visual healing effect. Moreover, since the fragrance fine particles increase, the olfactory characteristics are improved.

FIG. 8 shows a third embodiment of an air cannon-type fine particle emission device in which a liquid storage plate having a mesh structure is a small container for water or fragrance and an ultrasonic vibrator is a volatilizing means. A different part compared with the Example of FIG. 7 is demonstrated.

  In the figure, reference numeral 80 denotes an ultrasonic volatilization apparatus using a mesh-structured liquid storage plate as a small container. 80 is a piezoelectric plate 81 such as PZT, electrodes 82 and 83, vibration projection connection resin 84, vibration projection 85, piezoelectric plate holding portion 86, cover plate 87 with conical air holes, conical air holes 88, mesh-like liquid occlusion. Part 89.

  80 is supplied with water from the water tank 37 little by little through the water supply pipe 36 and the liquid passage valve 35. Further, the fragrance in the fragrance tank 73 is supplied little by little through the fragrance supply pipe 72 and the fragrance supply pump 71.

In FIG. 8B , when an AC voltage having an ultrasonic frequency is applied to the electrodes 82 and 83 at both ends of the piezoelectric plate 81, the vibration protrusion 85 is moved in the horizontal direction at a high speed via the vibration protrusion connection resin 84 in FIG. Vibrates ultrasonically. It is also possible to vibrate in the vertical direction by changing the structure of the vibration protrusion.

  Here, the vibration protrusion connection resin 84 acts to moderately reduce the vibration shock of the piezoelectric plate 81 and transmit it to the vibration protrusion 85.

  When the vibration protrusion 85 vibrates at high speed, vibration is transmitted to the stored water (W0) and the fragrance (K0), and a large amount of fine particles are generated from the portion in contact with the vibration protrusion.

  The fine water particles W 1 and the fine fragrance particles K 1 are discharged through the air holes 88 of the cover plate 87 and supplied into the cannon 13.

FIG. 8C is a top view of the ultrasonic volatilization apparatus. In the mesh-like liquid storage unit 89, a plurality of wires are knitted into vertical and horizontal bands. Liquid is easily occluded at the intersections of the bands by capillary action. Thus, water and a number of different fragrances can be accumulated. The thickness of the mesh-like liquid storage part 89 is preferably about 50 μm to 2 mm.

  A small air hole is opened in the cover plate on the mesh plate, and the mesh side is structured to create a wide conical space as shown in the figure.

  The generated fine particles are temporarily stored in the conical space by the vibration protrusion 85 and then discharged from the air hole 88. The size of the air hole 88 is preferably about 10 μm to 1 mm. The reason why the air hole has such a structure is as follows.

  When the vibration protrusion 85 vibrates violently, depending on the mode of vibration, the liquids W0 and K0 may not only become fine particles but also try to jump out as a large lump of liquid. By making the cover plate 87 as described above, a large lump of the liquid does not repel and jump out, and fine particles having a uniform diameter are discharged from the air hole 88.

In FIG. 8 , a liquid storage plate having a mesh structure is used. However, it is natural that a liquid storage body having a porous structure has the same effect.

FIG. 9 illustrates a driving method of the air pump as another condition for generating a beautiful mass of fine particles.

  The drive control of the air pump consists of three parts. In the figure, (a), (b) and (c) show the operation of the electromagnetic core 24 of the air pump corresponding to the three parts.

The thick line is the time characteristic of the operation. FIGS. 9A , 9B , and 9C show how the air cannon and the fine particles are solidified when the electromagnetic core 24 is operated in each part of (A), (B), and (C). .

  Further, (D) shows a case where the air pump is operated by a conventional technique such as a spring for comparison. When the air pump membrane is operated by a spring, the membrane oscillates as shown in FIG. When the membrane vibrates at a high speed, an airflow is generated around the fine particle mass in the barrel opening so as to return the mass to the gun barrel in the vicinity of the fine particle mass.

  In this way, the airflow is disturbed in the vicinity of the barrel opening, so that a fine particle ball cannot be produced. Also, the operation is not stable. On the other hand, in (a), (b), and (c), the operation of the electromagnetic core is controlled as follows.

In (a), the electromagnetic core 24 operates at high speed in a short time from t1 to t2. In FIG. 9A , when the electromagnetic core 24 and the conical film 22 operate in the direction indicated by the arrows, the particulate-mixed air 300 is released from the gun barrel. The airflow flows as indicated by a dashed line A.

In (A), the electromagnetic core 24 does not operate from t2 to t3. In FIG. 9-2 , the ring-shaped particle mass 300 is separated from the opening of the gun barrel. The length of time from t2 to t3 may be a length until the particle mass 300 is separated from the barrel opening by a distance about the diameter of the mass.

In (c), the electromagnetic core 24 operates from t3 to t4. In FIG. 9-3 , the conical membrane 22 of the air pump operates in the direction of the arrow. The fine particles remaining in the vicinity of the gun barrel opening are collected in the gun barrel, and the conical membrane 22 returns to its original position in preparation for the next fine particle release.

  At this time, the airflow is as shown by a broken line B. That is, the outside air is compressed and the atmospheric pressure rises when passing through the opening in which the cross section of the gun barrel is narrowed. At the abdomen of the gun barrel, the air pressure decreases because the cross section is large. Accordingly, a ring-shaped air ball 301 as shown in the figure is generated in the gun barrel.

  301 pushes the fine particles in the gun barrel against the wall of the gun barrel. When the fine particles are distributed from the abdomen of the gun barrel to the wall of the opening, it is easy to make a beautiful ring shape when the next fine particle is released.

  According to this air pump driving method, the release of the mass of fine particles is stable and reproducibility is high. Therefore, even when the fine particles are released at a high speed, there is little disorder in the ring shape. There is an allowable range for the dischargeable speed.

  In (a), the slope from t11 to t2 indicates a slow release, and the slope from t12 to t2 indicates a fast release.

Next, a driving method of the air pump that enhances the healing effect will be described. FIG. 10 shows an embodiment in which the frequency at which a predetermined interval for releasing a mass of fine particles appears is generally proportional to the reciprocal of the emission frequency.

FIG. 10A is an example of the discharge interval. (A) is a mode that releases 360 times per hour at intervals of 10 seconds, (A) is a mode that releases 240 times per hour at intervals of 3.16 seconds, and (C) is a mode that releases once per hour at intervals of 1 second. It is a mode that releases 120 times. AK shows a state in which (a), (b), and (c) are superimposed and released.

FIG. 10-2 shows the relationship between the discharge interval and the frequency at which the discharge interval appears in a method for generating fluctuations in the discharge interval. The discharge interval of the mass of fine particles gives a property proportional to the reciprocal of the frequency F, that is, 1 / F fluctuation.

  That is, a long period (A) has a high appearance frequency, and a short period (C) has a low appearance frequency. 1 / F fluctuation is a fundamental property of the natural world. Therefore, when the fragranced fine particles are released with 1 / F fluctuation, an impression that matches the rhythm of the natural world is obtained both olfactoryly and visually, and the healing effect is high.

FIG. 11 shows an embodiment in which the speed at which the particles are released is controlled so as to fluctuate around a preset center setting speed in the air pump drive control.

FIG. 11A is an example of the discharge distance. Since the mass of air released from the air cannon is proportional to the release speed and the release distance, by controlling the release speed so that it fluctuates around the center setting speed, as shown in the figure, the fragrance around the predetermined position A concentration space can be created.

FIG. 11-2 shows an example in which the fluctuation of the discharge speed is generated, and the frequency of appearance corresponding to the predetermined speed is proportional to the reciprocal of the absolute value of “the predetermined speed—the center setting speed”. In the figure, the release speed is converted into the release distance.

(F) is a mode corresponding to the center set speed, the discharge distance is 0.5 m, and is about 280 times per hour. (G) has a discharge distance of 0.3 m or 0.7 m and is about 230 times per hour, and (K) has a discharge distance of 0.2 m or 0.8 m and 190 times per hour. The degree (g) is about 120 times per hour when the discharge distance is 0.1 m or 0.9 m. When (f) (ki) (ku) (ke) are superimposed, a frequency distribution as shown in FIG .

  Such a scented space with a concentration change created by the drive control of the air pump gives the person interest and interest and produces a healing effect.

FIG. 12 shows an air cannon type particle emitting device used by being attached to the ceiling in the fourth embodiment of the present invention. In the same figure, 14 is a transparent crane-neck-type downward gun barrel made of resin, glass, etc. 381 and 382 are fine particle discharge tubes for injecting water fine particles W1 and fragrance fine particles K1 from the fine particle generator 30 into the gun barrel. It is.

  Since the gun barrel 14 is bent like a vine neck, the scented ball 300 can be released obliquely downward. Further, the gun barrel 14 is connected to the air pump 20 by a plug-in type detachment mechanism 51, and is rotatable around the air pump. Accordingly, when the scent ball 300 is released to the periphery while rotating the cannon 14, an atmosphere like a scented shower can be created.

FIG. 13 shows an air cannon type particle emitting apparatus according to a fifth embodiment of the present invention in which the cannon is exchangeable. FIG. 13-1 is an example of a cannon having two openings that can clean the nasal cavity, and FIG. 13-2 is an example of a cannon having a polygonal opening.

In FIG. 13A , reference numeral 15 denotes a tip branch type gun barrel, which includes a gun barrel branching portions 151 and 152, water droplet discharge holes 153 and 154, two series of opening portions 111 and 112, and a barrel insertion portion 155.

  When the apparatus is driven by inserting two openings into the nasal cavity, a water particle mass 302 containing water fine particles or thin perfume fine particles enters the nasal cavity and is washed. When water droplets are generated, they are discharged from the water droplet discharge holes 153 and 154.

  In use for aromatherapy, as a primary care, natural fragrances such as peppermint and eucalyptus can be expected to be effective in preventing colds and hay fever by diluting them with water and releasing them at low concentrations.

In FIG. 13-2 , 16 is a specially-opened barrel, 161 is a quadrangle, 162 is a triangle, and 163 is a hexagonal barrel opening. Reference numeral 303 denotes a block of rectangular visualization fine particles.

FIG. 14 shows an air gun type particle emitting device in which a particle generating device is provided outside the gun barrel in the sixth embodiment of the present invention. Reference numeral 383 denotes a fine particle discharge tube for injecting water fine particles W1 and fragrance fine particles K1 from the fine particle generator 30 into the gun barrel.

FIG. 15 shows an air gun type particle emission apparatus incorporating a device for generating a fragrance particle by heating a fragrance with the heat of an electric bulb in the seventh embodiment of the present invention.

  Reference numeral 20 denotes an air pump, 201 denotes an air pump drive device, 202 denotes a control device, and 17 denotes a crane neck-shaped gun barrel made of a transparent material such as resin or glass. The barrel is attached to the air pump so as to be detachable by a plug-in type detachment mechanism 51. Further, it can rotate as indicated by an arrow 171.

  Reference numeral 65 denotes a heating means using a light bulb for generating fine particles of water or fragrance, and includes a light bulb 651, a transparent container 652, and a power adjustment means 653. 654 is a container placed on the heating means, and 780 is a fragrance supply bottle for dropping the fragrance. 65 is detachably attached to the air pump.

  The operation will be described. Container 654 contains a small amount of water (W0). The fragrance | flavor (K0) is dripped in the fragrance | flavor supply bottle 780 in this. When the light bulb 651 is energized, light and heat rays bm5 appear as shown by arrows in the figure. Since 652 is a transparent container, the light illuminates the barrel 17.

  Further, when the heat of the light bulb warms the water in the container 654, water fine particles W1 and fragrance fine particles K1 are injected into the gun barrel. When the air pump is driven, the scented ball 304 is released.

  In this embodiment, infrared light is also emitted from the light bulb. When the fragrance is heated from the inside by the infrared rays, even a small amount of the fragrance becomes a large volume of fine particles. Since the fine particles are small, they cannot be seen as a scented ball, but the scented ball has a beautiful shape due to the characteristic structure and driving method of the gun barrel and air pump described above.

  When the scented ball is presented to a human olfactory device, an extremely efficient fragrance device can be configured. Since sufficient olfactory stimulation can be obtained even with a small amount of fragrance, an expensive fragrance can be used economically. In general, expensive fragrances give off a good scent and have a high olfactory healing effect.

  Next, a method for appropriately controlling the fine particle concentration in the gun barrel will be described. The perfume volatilization amount can be adjusted at 653. The air pump can be driven and controlled at 201. 202 controls the discharge interval and discharge distance of the particle lump, and controls the particle concentration of the gun barrel to be appropriate.

  For example, when the number of released scent balls per unit time is large, the concentration in the gun barrel is likely to be low, so 202 sends a command to 653 to increase the power supplied to the light bulb.

  Moreover, when the intensity | strength (concentration) of fragrance and the frequency | count of an air pump are designated by the user, the appropriate fragrance | flavor dripping amount with respect to the said designated conditions and the power adjustment value of 653 are preset, and the said The perfume dropping amount is notified to the user and dropped, and for the power adjustment, a command from 202 to 653 can be sent to appropriately control the fine particle concentration in the gun barrel.

  Furthermore, the power adjustment means 653 can control the light intensity of the light bulb 651 so that the candle flame fluctuates. In this case, since the gun barrel also functions as a lighting device having a high healing effect, it becomes an aromatic device with high added value.

  Next, maintainability will be described. The gun barrel 17 can be easily removed from the air pump by a desorption mechanism. Water and fragrance can be poured into the container 654 with the barrel removed.

  At the time of washing, the container can be removed from the heating means 65 using a light bulb and washed with water. Furthermore, the heating means 65 can also be removed from the air pump 20. Cleaning is simple because the air pump, gun barrel, and heating means can be disassembled.

In FIG. 15 , the light bulb 651 is used as the heating element for liquid perfume volatilization, but an electric heater may be used. It is preferable that the electric heater emits a lot of far-infrared rays that warm the fragrance from the inside.

  Far infrared rays can be obtained by wrapping a carbon material around the heater. Far-infrared rays can heat not only liquid perfumes but also solids such as perfumes and release perfume fine particles.

  As the electric heater, a carbon-based material that emits far-infrared rays having a wavelength of 2.53 to 3.0 μm or 5.0 to 7.0 μm is suitable. Light energy of the wavelength is efficiently absorbed by the liquid fragrance. This is because water molecules in the liquid fragrance resonate at the wavelength of the light and cause strong resonance absorption. Therefore, water is efficiently vaporized with less energy.

  In particular, a wavelength of 6.27 μm breaks up water clusters while resonating with water molecules, generating a large amount of negative ions. Accordingly, water fine particles containing a large amount of negative ions can be generated. When water is vaporized, fragrance molecules dissolved in water are also vaporized by mixing with water vapor.

FIG. 16 shows an air cannon-type fine particle emission device interlocked with a halogen heater in the eighth embodiment of the present invention. In the figure, reference numeral 66 denotes a halogen heater, which includes a halogen lamp 661, a reflecting mirror 662, and a halogen lamp drive control unit 663. 270 is a water droplet collection container provided in the casing 21 of the air pump.

  The halogen lamp 661 has a hollow circular shape and generates strong heat and infrared rays in the periphery. The reflecting mirror 662 has a parabolic cross section, and a 661 is provided in the vicinity of the focal point of the paraboloid.

  The heat and infrared rays generated from 661 partially irradiate the front, but the rest is reflected by the reflecting mirror 662 and irradiates the front as indicated by the arrow bm6. The reflecting mirror has the effect of changing the light of the halogen lamp into infrared rays. Therefore, most heat and infrared rays irradiate and warm the front.

  At the center of the reflecting mirror 661, that is, at the center of the circular halogen lamp, the gun barrel opening 11 of the air gun type particle emitting device 8 of the present invention is provided. The reflecting mirror 662 and the gun barrel 13 can be attached and detached by a screwing type or the like. Further, the gun barrel 13 and the air pump 20 are connected via a plug-in type detachment mechanism 51.

  Therefore, the halogen heater 66, the gun barrel 13 and the air pump 20 can be separated. Since it can be separated, maintenance such as cleaning is easy. It is also convenient for storage. When water droplets are generated in the gun barrel, the water droplets can be collected in the water droplet collection container 270 and collected.

  Next, the operation will be described. When water and a fragrance are supplied from the water tank 37 and the fragrance tank 73 to the small container 31 and the ultrasonic vibrator 32 is driven by the drive device 33 under the control of the control device 261, the water fine particles W1, the fragrance Fine particles K1 are injected into the barrel.

  When the air pump driving device 26 operates under the control of H.261, the electromagnetic core 24 and the conical membrane 22 operate, and the air containing the W1 and K1 is beautifully shaped from the barrel opening with the ring-shaped fragrance ball 300. Will be released.

  Since the fine particles W1 and K1 generated by the ultrasonic vibration are released from the opening 11, the scented ball 300 immediately after coming out of the opening is a “visible scent”.

  Since heat and infrared rays bm6 are radiated in the direction in which the scented ball 300 is emitted, the scented ball fine particles are promoted to volatilize as they advance and diffuse a better scent forward. Even a small amount of fragrance can effectively stimulate the sense of smell. The generation amount of fine particles can be controlled by adjusting the infrared ray generation amount of the halogen lamp by 663.

  When the wavelength of the infrared ray bm6 is 2.53 to 3.0 μm or 5.0 to 7.0 μm, water or a fragrance can be efficiently volatilized, and negative ions are generated as described above. You can also.

  “Visible scent” not only has a visual healing effect from its shape, but also provides a sense of security because it shows that the scent is coming out.

FIG. 17 shows an air gun type particle emission apparatus in which a halogen light source and a reflecting mirror are mounted in an air pump according to a ninth embodiment of the present invention.

  In the figure, 644 is a halogen light source, and 220 is a parabolic reflecting film. The reflective film is connected to the electromagnetic core 24. When the electromagnetic core 24 is driven by the driving device 26 and moves to the left side of the drawing, air is pushed into the gun barrel and the scent ball 300 is released.

  Here, the halogen light source 664 is installed in the vicinity of the focal point of the parabolic reflector. Therefore, the infrared ray bm6 emitted from 664 is reflected by the reflecting mirror as shown in FIG. This light promotes volatilization of the water fine particles W1 and the perfume fine particles K1.

  The halogen light source also acts to color 300 as illumination.

  Thus, a halogen light source having an illumination function and a volatilization function can be efficiently mounted in a small air gun casing.

  In the following, the configuration and effects of the present invention will be briefly shown again, and products to which the present invention can be applied will be described.

The present invention, according to claim 1, consists means for injecting the gun barrel special shape, the air pump specially shaped, a mechanism for detaching the two, fine particles of water or perfume into the gun barrel This is an air gun type particle emission device. Due to the structure described above, the generated particles (balls) form a beautiful ring shape. When the mass is visualized, the visual healing effect is high. When a lump containing fragrance fine particles is released, a sufficient olfactory healing effect can be obtained with a small amount of fragrance, which is economical. The gun barrel is hard to get dirty, and even if it gets dirty, it can be easily disassembled and cleaned, and it is easy to maintain. It can be used for various purposes because it can be used to discharge variously shaped fine particles by replacing the gun barrel. Further, the apparatus of the present invention has an interior property in the shape itself.

According to the second aspect of the present invention, the fragrance fine particle generating portion forming a part of the barrel can be provided in the vicinity of the barrel opening. When the fragrance fine particle generating part is provided in the gun barrel opening, the fragrance fine particle rarely reaches the back of the gun barrel or the air pump region, so that the gun barrel and the air pump are less likely to be stained with the fragrance spear, Good maintainability. Therefore, natural fragrances (natural fragrances) that are prone to wrinkles can be used without resistance.

According to the third aspect , as a means for injecting the fine particles into the gun barrel, a mechanism for volatilizing water or a fragrance with an ultrasonic vibrator or a heating element is used. In addition, the fine particle concentration in the gun barrel is appropriately controlled. For this reason, a beautiful lump of fine particles can be stably released. Further, since the consumption of extra fragrance is small, it is economical and the maintenance of the fragrance is easy because it is difficult for the remaining fragrance residue to adhere to the apparatus. Furthermore, since a large amount of negative ions can be released toward the user, it is also effective for health.

According to the fourth aspect of the present invention , the means for injecting the fine particles into the cannon includes a small container for subdividing water or fragrance and an ultrasonic vibrator for volatilizing the water or fragrance. Only the subdivided perfume touches the air, and the perfume in the perfume storage tank does not touch the air, so that the perfume is less deteriorated. You can use expensive natural fragrances that are easily oxidized. Of course, maintenance is also good. Moreover, since the fragrance | flavor in the said small container is consumed in a short time, it is easy to switch to another fragrance | flavor. A fragrance with high healing effect that can enjoy various scents can be realized.

According to the fifth aspect , since the air pump is controlled by a special drive pattern, it is possible to stably discharge a cluster of fine particles having a beautiful shape. Since the operation is stable, the emission range can be expanded from near to far. Suitable for fine particle release device, aroma apparatus and negative ion generator with high healing effect.

According to the sixth aspect of the present invention, it is possible to control the release interval of the mass of fine particles with a release pattern having 1 / F fluctuation which is a rhythm of the natural world. Therefore, it is suitable for a fine particle emission device, an aromatic device, and a negative ion generator that have a high healing effect both visually and olfactoryly.

According to the seventh aspect , the release rate of the mass of the fine particles can be controlled by a release pattern having 1 / F fluctuation which is a natural rhythm. The mass of the fine particles creates a characteristic spatial distribution. As a result, a fine particle emission device, an aromatic device, and a negative ion generator that have a high healing effect both visually and olfactoryly can be realized. It is suitable for devices that produce scented spaces with varying concentrations.

According to claim 8 , there can be provided means for illuminating the inside of the gun barrel or the lump of fine particles discharged from the gun barrel. When a lighting device that emits various colors, such as an LED, is used, a fine particle emitting device and an aromatic device with a high healing effect can be realized. It is more effective to give 1 / F fluctuation to the illumination intensity. In addition, when a lighting device such as a light bulb that emits far-infrared rays together with visible light is used, the visual beauty is natural and the infrared rays act to promote the volatilization of fine particles of water and fragrances. In addition, it is possible to realize an aromatic device with better olfactory presentation characteristics. Further, since the fragrance fine particles in the cannon are released from the cannon opening by the promotion of volatilization, there is little contamination of the cannon and the air pump, and maintenance is good.

  Next, products suitable for application of the present invention will be listed.

(1) Scent ball discharge type aroma (diffuser)
A high-quality natural fragrance (natural fragrance) with a high healing effect can be made into fine particles and used as a scented ball to release an fragrance towards the human olfactory organ. It can also be released by rotating the gun barrel. It can be used in various places by changing the type of scent. For example, it is ideal for hospital waiting rooms where stress and pain relief are highly demanded, children's study rooms that want to improve concentration, sports practice areas that want to eliminate sweat odors, and bedrooms that want to induce a peaceful sleep.

(2) Although an incense burner that warms an electronic incense burner with a heater and enjoys the fragrance is popular, a high-performance electronic incense burner that takes in fragrance particles emitted from this incense burner into a cannon and emits it as a scent ball toward a human olfactory instrument realizable.

(3) Scent generation clock
7 and FIG. 8 , using the apparatus of the present invention, 12 types of natural fragrances are stored in a fragrance tank every hour, and about 6 types of natural fragrances are stored in a small container. It can be used for a wall clock or a table clock that is volatilized by an ultrasonic vibrator or a heating element and releases a scented ball into a room. If it is a fragrant ball that can be seen, it is even better. The scent has palatability, but the scent that many people feel is wonderful is an olfactory stimulus in which multiple natural fragrances that are compatible with each other are mixed. Specifically, it is an enchanting scent that can be felt at perfume stores, aromatherapy stores, perfume stores, and the like. Alternatively, it is a stimulus felt in a flower garden or forest. It is characterized by a mixture of scents. When used as a scented clock and switched to scent every other hour and released into the room, the scent is mixed in a complex manner and a nice fragrance space can be created.

(4) Scented mist shower device

If the feeling of irritation increases due to traffic jams, lavender with a tension relieving effect can be presented. When combined with a device that detects dozing, it is possible to warn by presenting a characteristic scent to call attention. Moreover, since this apparatus can control the discharge | release direction and reach | attainment distance of a fragrance ball, it can show a selective fragrance to a driver's seat, a passenger seat, and a rear seat.

(8) Humidifier / deodorizer In a configuration in which water is discharged as fine particles, it can also be used as a humidifier. A normal humidifier simply produces fog, but this device has a high healing effect because it looks like a ring of mist dancing. In addition, since the water fine particles have an action of enclosing dust, dust and contaminants in the air and dropping them on the floor, they can also be used as a deodorizer.

(9) Nasal cavity cleaning device
As shown in FIG. 13A , when the barrel is made into a special bifurcated shape, it can be used as a nasal irrigator. It is effective in relieving discomfort such as hay fever and cold.

(10) Multi-purpose particle emission device It is also possible to commercialize a multi-purpose particle emission device as a set of several barrels having different shapes from the air pump.
