The cycle of sauna operation and cool-down operation is repeated.
JP 2002-143265 A

  The above-described conventional technology includes setting means that can set the sauna temperature, the sauna bathing time, the number of cycles of the sauna operation and the cool-down operation, and based on the setting by the setting means, the sauna operation and the cool operation are provided. Cycle operation with down operation is performed. Therefore, the bather performs the mist sauna bath in a cycle set by himself / herself.

  By the way, there is a need to cool down between mist sauna baths, but even in the same bather, it may be difficult to know whether it is comfortable to cool down in any cycle without actually bathing. However, the conventional technology described above cannot meet such needs.

  Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a bathroom mist sauna device that can meet the needs of various bathers and pursues more comfort.

  In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present inventors listened to the needs of many bathers and studied a comfortable bathroom mist sauna apparatus from various angles. First, in order to respond to the needs of various bathers, a so-called manual mode was studied in which cool-down is performed in response to bather instruction inputs. However, in the first place, it has been found that the conventional technique described above requires heating or cooling the entire bathroom, which is difficult to realize in practice. In addition, even if it is possible to introduce an air conditioner that is very large compared to the bathroom space, it is necessary to replace all the warm and cool air in the bathroom with such a large air conditioner. It turns out that is not always comfortable. The present invention has been made to solve a new problem obtained as a result of such trial and error.

  The bathroom mist sauna device according to the present invention is configured as one space that is not separated by an entity, and forms a mist sauna space for encouraging a bather to sweat in a bathroom space that includes a bathtub area and a washing area. A mist sauna space that includes at least a mist spraying means for spraying mist into the bathroom space, a temperature raising means for raising the temperature in the bathroom space, and a sweating zone that can promote sweating to the bather And a control means for controlling the mist ejection means and the temperature raising means, respectively, and the control means is a region obtained by dividing the bathroom space as one space so as to be lined up horizontally without depending on the entity. A sweat zone is formed in at least a part of the first region with respect to the first region and the second region, each of which is in a predetermined position, and the second region. By controlling the mist ejection by the mist ejection means and the temperature rise by the temperature raising means so as to form a cool sensation zone that allows a bather who perspires in at least a part of the sweat zone to feel a refreshing sensation. Separation air-conditioning control is performed, and the bathroom mist sauna device is arranged at a position eccentric on the cool zone side on the ceiling that constitutes the bathroom space.

  According to the present invention, a high-temperature and high-humidity sweat zone is formed in the first area and a cool feeling zone is formed in the second area, in contrast to the first area and the second area that are formed independently of the substance. Therefore, it is possible to provide a sweat zone and a cool feeling zone that are intentionally formed so that bathers can easily enter those zones. Moreover, since the 1st area | region and the 2nd area | region are formed in the position divided | segmented side by side irrespective of the entity, the bather can come and go freely between them. Therefore, the bather can come and go between the perspiration zone formed in the first area and the cool feeling zone formed in the second area at the timing he / she intended, and cool down at a more favorable timing for himself / herself. Is possible. Furthermore, since the sweating zone and the cool sensation zone can be formed side by side constantly in the intended time zone during the zone separation air conditioning control by the control means, it is not necessary to replace all the warm air and cool air in the bathroom. Energy efficiency can also be improved. Further, since this bathroom mist sauna device is arranged on the ceiling constituting the bathroom space and at an eccentric position on the cool feeling zone side, the cool feeling fluid sprayed to the cool feeling zone can be moved by a short distance movement. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the decrease in the momentum of the cool sensation fluid, and further to shorten the floating time of the cool sensation fluid, so that it is possible to suppress the cool mist especially the cool water mist from being warmed by the ambient temperature in the bathroom. Therefore, a comfortable cool sensation zone can be more accurately formed by ejecting a small amount of cool sensation fluid. In the present invention, “separately formed regardless of the substance” means that the first region and the second region are formed so that the bather can freely come and go. In other words, it indicates that the partition member such as a physical curtain that extends from the ceiling to the floor is not partitioned. Therefore, the side wall of the bathtub may be erected as usual from the floor between the first region and the second region, and downward from the ceiling side member between the first region and the second region. A partition member having a length that does not hinder the bather's movement may be provided to hang down.

  Further, in the bathroom mist sauna device according to claim 2, the bathroom mist sauna device is arranged above the bathtub provided in the bathtub region, and the control means forms a cool feeling zone in at least a part of the bathtub region. Thus, the mist ejecting means and the temperature raising means are controlled. According to this aspect, since the bathroom mist sauna apparatus is arrange | positioned above the bathtub, a cool feeling zone can be accurately formed in the bathtub area | region side. By forming a cool feeling zone on the bathtub area side, the amount of mist that forms the cool feeling zone stays in the bathtub and effectively flows into the wash area, so the temperature drop of the sweat zone formed on the wash area area can be reduced. Can be suppressed.

  In the bathroom mist sauna apparatus according to claim 3, the mist ejected toward the cool zone is ejected substantially vertically downward, and the mist ejected toward the perspiration zone is ejected substantially horizontally. The mist ejecting means and the temperature raising means are configured. According to this aspect, since the cool sensation zone is formed below the bathroom mist sauna device, the cool sensation zone can be more accurately formed by ejecting the cool water mist ejected to the cool sensation zone side substantially vertically downward. . In other words, the cool water mist that erupts into the cool sensation zone needs to give the bather a pleasant cool sensation. Was found to be effective. Based on these findings, the bathroom mist sauna device is biased toward the cool sensation zone, allowing the cool water mist to be ejected in a substantially vertical direction. Since it comes into contact with the bather by the movement, it is possible to give momentum to the cool water mist, and furthermore, since the floating time can be shortened, it is possible to suppress the cool water mist from being warmed by the ambient temperature in the bathroom. As a result, a pleasant cool feeling can be surely given. Furthermore, since a pleasant cool feeling can be surely given, the amount of spray of the cool water mist can be reduced, and the temperature drop in the perspiration area can be suppressed. In addition, it is possible to suppress the temperature rise of the cool water mist due to the ambient temperature, so no measures such as unnecessarily enlarging the particle size are required, and therefore the feel when the cool water mist contacts the bather is extremely high. An excellent effect that it can be improved can also be achieved. In addition, since the cool water mist can be struck against the bathtub or the floor surface vigorously, it can reduce the floating state in the bathroom. As a result, the temperature drop in the sweat zone is also suppressed from this point. This is advantageous from the viewpoint.

  On the other hand, for the sweat zone, it was configured to eject the warm mist in a substantially horizontal direction, so the warm mist ejected to the sweat zone is not felt against the floor, but floats in the air, Since the fall can be suppressed, the mist environment in the perspiration zone can be efficiently maintained. Therefore, since the amount of warm mist ejected to the perspiration zone can be reduced, the temperature rise in the cool feeling zone can be suppressed and the perspiration zone and the cool feeling zone can be accurately formed separately.

  Further, in the bathroom mist sauna apparatus according to claim 4, the temperature raising means includes at least a hot air blowing section for blowing hot air into the bathroom space, and the control means is for the first mode for performing zone separation air conditioning control. In addition, a second mode for performing single-zone air-conditioning control that forms only a sweat zone in the bathroom space is also provided, and the direction of the hot air that is blown out from the hot air blowing section when the second mode is shifted to the first mode is provided. Change to approach the ceiling. According to this aspect, when the mode is changed from the second mode to the first mode, the direction of the hot air is changed so as to approach the ceiling, so that the bather can comfortably take a mist sauna bath when forming only the sweat zone. When the sweating zone and the cool sensation zone are formed side by side, the bather has moved to the cool sensation zone, so there is no need to provide a comfortable mist sauna bathing environment for the bather. By making the warm mist along the ceiling with warm air, it is possible to suppress the fall of the warm mist and to float in the space of the sweat zone for a long time. This makes it easier to maintain the mist environment in the sweat zone. This also makes it easier to float the warm mist, so it is also possible to increase the particle size of the warm mist. In this case, the thermal energy of the warm mist can be increased, which further suppresses the temperature drop in the sweat area. It is possible to favorably maintain the environment.

  In the bathroom mist sauna apparatus according to claim 5, the particle size of the cool water mist ejected to the cool zone is larger than the particle size of the warm mist ejected to the sweat zone. According to this aspect, by increasing the particle size of the cool water mist sprayed to the cool sensation zone side, it is possible to make the bather feel a strong refreshing feeling, and the sweat zone of the cool water mist sprayed to the cool feel zone side Floating to the side can be suppressed.

  According to the present invention, it is possible to meet the needs of various bathers and not only can provide a bathroom mist sauna device pursuing more comfort, but also achieve both comfort and energy saving performance. it can.

  DESCRIPTION OF EXEMPLARY EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. In order to facilitate the understanding of the description, the same constituent elements in the drawings will be denoted by the same reference numerals as much as possible, and redundant description will be omitted.

  The aspect which uses the bathroom mist sauna apparatus which concerns on embodiment of this invention is demonstrated referring FIG. FIG. 1 is a view for explaining an example in which a bathroom air conditioner body 10 constituting a bathroom mist sauna apparatus is attached to a bathroom unit BR.

  The bathroom unit BR is used when a bathroom is provided in an apartment house or a detached house, and is configured by assembling constituent members such as a wall, a floor, a ceiling, and a bathtub. The bathroom unit BR includes a floor member 20, wall members 21, 22 and 23, and a ceiling member 24. The wall members 21, 22, and 23 are attached upright around the floor member 20. The wall member 21 and the wall member 23 are provided at positions facing each other. The wall member 22 is provided adjacent to the wall member 21 and the wall member 23. Although not clearly shown in FIG. 1, a wall member is provided at a position facing the wall member 22, and the wall member is adjacent to the wall member 21 and the wall member 23. A ceiling member 24 is provided so as to face the floor member 20.

  The wall member 21 is provided with a window 211. The window 211 is configured by holding a window glass with a window frame. The window frame is fitted into the wall member 21. The wall member 22 is provided with a counter portion 221 and a storage shelf 223. A shower faucet 222 is attached to the counter portion 221. The wall member 23 is provided with a door 231 for entering and exiting the bathroom unit BR.

  The floor member 20 is provided with a bathtub BT. The bathtub BT has a bowl-like shape that forms a rectangular parallelepiped, and three walls among the four walls constituting the bathtub BT are arranged along the wall members 21 and 22 and a wall member that is not clearly shown in FIG. . Accordingly, one wall of the bathtub BT is erected in the vicinity of the substantially center of the floor member 20.

  The ceiling member 24 includes a flat ceiling portion 241 and a dome-shaped ceiling portion 242. The ceiling portion 241 is disposed substantially directly above the bathtub BT, and the ceiling portion 242 is disposed substantially directly above the floor member 20 where the bathtub BT is not provided. The bathroom air conditioner main body 10 is attached to the ceiling portion 241. The mist blown out from the bathroom air conditioner main body 10 and the wind to be sent out are configured to be sent out to an intended portion in the bathroom unit BR by a louver (not explicitly shown in FIG. 1).

  Subsequently, the zone air conditioning control that can be realized by the bathroom mist sauna apparatus according to the present embodiment will be described. Zone air-conditioning control is a concept that includes zone separation air-conditioning control that intentionally separates the bathroom space into different zones and performs air-conditioning control, and single zone air-conditioning control that performs air-conditioning control with the bathroom space as a single zone. . FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating a first example of zone air conditioning control. 2 (a) shows the first stage of zone air conditioning control, FIG. 2 (b) shows the second stage of zone air conditioning control, and FIG. 2 (c) shows the third stage of zone air conditioning control. ing.

  In FIG. 2, a bench BT1 is formed at one end of the rim of the bathtub BT, and a bench BT2 is formed inside the bathtub BT. Further, a bench counter 224 is provided on the wall surface opposite to the bathroom unit BR described in FIG. 1, and a mirror 225 is provided on the wall surface on which the bench counter 224 is provided.

  In the first stage of the zone air-conditioning control shown in FIG. 2A, the sweat fluid HF is sent out so as to encourage the bather H sitting on the bench counter 224 to sweat. In this first stage, the vicinity of the bather H is used as a high-temperature and high-humidity sweat zone, so the sweat fluid HF is composed of warm air and high-temperature warm mist, and the sweat fluid HF is at a predetermined position. It is sent out toward the vicinity of the bench counter 224. More specifically, the sweat fluid HF is configured by jetting hot mist while jetting hot air.

  In this stage of the present embodiment, the perspiration fluid HF is composed of warm air and high-temperature warm mist, but other aspects can be adopted as long as a warm-mist atmosphere can be constructed. For example, instead of warm air, a temperature raising means using infrared rays may be used. Further, steam may be used instead of the high-temperature warm mist. Moreover, you may use the aspect which heats the mist by normal temperature water, and heats the sprayed normal temperature mist by injecting warm air, and makes it a high temperature warm mist.

  Here, how the perspiration fluid HF is delivered will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 3A is a view of the bathroom unit BR viewed from the wall surface side where the mirror 225 is provided. FIG. 3B is a view of the bathroom unit BR as seen from the ceiling side. As shown in FIG. 3, a hot and humid sweat fluid HF is sent from the bathroom air conditioner body 10. The sweat fluid HF is sent out at an angle so as not to hit the side wall BT3 of the bathtub BT standing near the center of the bathroom unit BR so as to effectively hit the bather H seated on the bench counter 224. . The perspiration fluid HF is sent out over the entire width of the washing place in the direction of viewing the bathtub BT side from the washing place side (see FIG. 3B).

  Therefore, the entire washing area including at least the vicinity of the bench counter 224 is the warm mist atmosphere HA, and in the case of FIG. 3, almost the entire area inside the bathroom unit BR is the warm mist atmosphere HA. In this case, the inside of the bathroom unit BR is controlled by the zone air conditioning in the mode (second mode) in which the single zone air conditioning control is performed, and a sweating zone is formed at least in the vicinity of the bench counter 224. Sweating zones are formed almost all over the bathroom.

  Returning to FIG. 2, in the second stage of the zone air conditioning control shown in FIG. 2B, the perspiration fluid HF sent out from the bathroom air conditioner body 10 is sent out in the vicinity of the bench counter 224. More specifically, compared to (a) of FIG. 2, the sweat zone that has spread throughout the bathroom unit BR is narrowed, and a predetermined area (first area) included in the washing area (wash area) of the bathroom unit BR. ) And a cool zone where the bather H can feel a refreshing feeling is formed in an area (second area) opened as a result of the aggregation of the perspiration zones. When the perspiration fluid HF is composed of warm mist and warm air, the direction of the warm air is concentrated toward a predetermined area (first area) included in the washing area (wash area) of the bathroom unit BR. Concentrate sweating zones. In this case, since the perspiration fluid HF is sent out toward the periphery of the bench counter 224, the periphery of the bench BT1 and the bench BT2 is a cool sensation zone where the bather H can feel a refreshing feeling compared to the periphery of the bench counter 224. It has become. Therefore, when the bather H sitting on the bench counter 224 and taking a mist sauna bath becomes stuffy, he can retreat to the benches BT1 and BT2 and feel a refreshing feeling. The bench BT1 and the bench BT2 are configured so that the bather H can sit down and rest, and are provided as a rest area for the bather H. In the second stage of the zone air-conditioning control, the sweat zones are gathered to open the rest area and are included in the cool feeling zone.

  In the second stage of the zone air-conditioning control, the zone air-conditioning control is performed in a mode (first mode) in which zone separation air-conditioning control is performed in which a sweat zone and a cool feeling zone are formed in the bathroom unit BR. Moreover, the sweat zone is formed in the vicinity of the bench counter 224, and the cool feeling zone is formed in the vicinity of the bench BT1 and the bench BT2. Accordingly, the bathroom space is divided with the wash area side (wash area) of the bathroom unit BR as the first area and the bathtub BT side (bath area) of the bathroom unit BR as the second area.

  On the other hand, when the bather H tries to sweat by taking a mist sauna bath, the region where the bather H sits on the bench counter 224 is continuously controlled so as to be at least a sweating zone in which a warm mist atmosphere is maintained. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 2 (b), after the bather H has retreated, it returns to the sweating zone of the bench counter 224 for cycle bathing (bath in which mist sauna bathing and evacuation are alternately performed). You can instantly enjoy a comfortable mist sauna bath.

  Subsequently, in the third stage of the zone air conditioning control shown in FIG. 2C, the perspiration fluid HF delivered from the bathroom air conditioner body 10 is the same as the second stage shown in FIG. In the third stage, a cool sensation fluid CF composed of cool breeze and cool water mist is sent out toward the area of the bench BT2. Therefore, when the bather H sitting on the bench counter 224 and taking a mist sauna bath becomes suffocating or particularly hot, he can feel a refreshing feeling more effectively by evacuating to the bench BT2. it can. In addition, the water 30 is stretched over the bathtub BT, so that the feet of the bather H can be cooled, and a refreshing feeling can be felt even more effectively.

  FIG. 4 is a diagram for explaining a third stage of zone air conditioning control. 4A is a view of the bathroom unit BR viewed from the wall surface side where the mirror 225 is provided, and FIG. 4B is a view of the bathroom unit BR viewed from the ceiling side. As shown in (a) of FIG. 4, the hot and humid sweat fluid HF from the bathroom air conditioner body 10 does not hit the side wall BT3 of the bathtub BT so as to effectively hit the bather H seated on the bench counter 224. It is sent out at an angle. The cool sensation fluid CF is sent out into the bathtub BT in the predetermined second region, and stays in the bathtub BT and its upper space. Accordingly, in the vicinity of the bench BT2 at a predetermined position in the second region, the cool feeling zone as a space of a size that surrounds the bather H and substantially encloses the bather H is surely formed. Is controlled. It is sufficient that the bather has a size that substantially includes the bather as long as the bather can actually feel that he / she has entered the bather. For example, only the upper body may be included, or the upper body and the lower body above the knee may be included.

  In addition, in this embodiment, it is devised so that it is not necessary to give a cool feeling to the feet with the cool feeling fluid CF by filling water in the bathtub BT. This is because the temperature in the bathroom unit BR inevitably decreases as the amount of the cool sensation fluid CF delivered to the bathroom unit BR is increased, and excessive energy consumption occurs in order to maintain the warm mist atmosphere in the sweat zone. Therefore, the inflow amount of the cool sensation fluid CF is not increased as much as possible. It is also because humans can obtain a strong cool feeling by cooling their feet. In any case, the temperature drop in the sweat zone can be suppressed and the mist environment in the sweat zone can be secured by making it possible to obtain an appropriate and comfortable cool feeling without increasing the inflow amount of the cool fluid CF as much as possible. The wasteful energy consumption is suppressed so that a comfortable cycle bath can be provided.

  As shown in FIG. 4 (b), the perspiration fluid HF and the cool sensation fluid CF are ejected toward opposite sides substantially along the diagonal line of the bathroom unit BR. Therefore, the perspiration fluid HF and the cool sensation fluid CF are not easily mixed, and the perspiration zone HZ and the cool sensation zone CZ can be effectively formed.

  In the first example of zone air-conditioning control described above, at the time of zone separation air-conditioning control (second stage and third stage of zone air-conditioning control), the washing area including the bench counter 224 set in advance is the first area. The remaining area in the bathroom unit BR is controlled so as to always be the second area. As a result, the bath unit BR is configured so that the bather can move between the sweat zone and the cool sensation zone, enabling the bather to cycle bathing that allows the bather to experience the perception of sweat and cool sensation alternately. Yes.

  In the third stage of the zone air-conditioning control in the first example described above, the sweat fluid HF is composed of warm air and high-temperature warm mist. However, it is also preferable that the sweat air is composed only of warm air. In consideration of the sweating property by the warm mist, it is preferable that the particle diameter of the warm mist is as small as possible. Therefore, the cool feeling in the cool zone CZ may be affected in the zone separation air conditioning control stage. Therefore, in the third stage of the zone air conditioning control, which is the zone separation air conditioning control stage, the sweating zone HZ and the cool feeling zone CZ can be more accurately separated by excluding the high temperature warm mist from the sweat fluid HF.

  Even if the perspiration fluid HF is composed only of warm air, the cool sensation fluid CF may be composed of cool air and cool water mist. This is because the cooling water mist particle size is considered to be larger than the warm water mist particle size, so that the influence of the cooling water mist on the sweat zone HZ can be suppressed.

  Thus, using only warm air as the perspiration fluid HF and using cool breeze and cool water mist as the cool sensation fluid CF means that the perspiration fluid HF is sent out so that the perspiration zone HZ is at a predetermined temperature or higher. The cool sensation fluid CF is sent out so that the cool sensation zone CZ is lower than the temperature of the perspiration zone HZ by at least a predetermined temperature determined according to the temperature of the perspiration zone HZ.

  Subsequently, a second example and a third example of zone air conditioning control that can be realized by the bathroom mist sauna apparatus according to the present embodiment will be described. FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating a second example and a third example of zone air conditioning control. 5A shows the first stage in the second example of zone air conditioning control, FIG. 5B shows the second stage in the second example of zone air conditioning control, and FIG. 5C shows the zone air conditioning control. The third examples are respectively shown.

  In FIG. 5, as in FIG. 2, a bench BT1 is formed on the rim of the bathtub BT, and a bench BT2 is formed on the inner side of the bathtub BT. Further, a bench counter 224 is provided on the wall surface opposite to the bathroom unit BR described in FIG. 1, and a mirror 225 is provided on the wall surface on which the bench counter 224 is provided.

  In the first stage of the zone air-conditioning control shown in FIG. 5A, the sweating fluid HF is applied so as to encourage the bather H1 sitting on the bench counter 224 and the bather H2 sitting on the bench BT1 to sweat. Sent out. In this case, the position where the bench counter 224 and the bench BT1 are arranged is a predetermined position, and at least the predetermined position is surrounded so that a hot and humid sweating zone is formed. Sweating fluid HF is sent out from the air conditioner body 10. Accordingly, the entire washing area including the vicinity of the bench counter 224 and a part of the bathtub BT including the vicinity of the bench BT1 form a sweating zone.

  Subsequently, in the second stage of the zone air conditioning control shown in FIG. 5 (b), the perspiration fluid HF delivered from the bathroom air conditioner main body 10 is preliminarily narrowed in a mode slightly narrower than in the case of FIG. 5 (a). It is sent out aiming at an area including the vicinity of the bench counter 224 which is a predetermined position. In the case of this second example, a plurality of bathers are assumed, and the perspiration fluid HF is sent out so that the bathers H1 and H2 can enter the perspiration zone even in the second stage.

  In the second stage, the cool sensation fluid CF composed of cool air and cool water mist is sent out toward the area of the bench BT2 in the bathtub BT which is a predetermined position. Therefore, when the bather H2 sitting on the bench BT1 and taking a mist sauna bath becomes stuffy, a refreshing feeling can be felt more effectively by retreating to the bench BT2. Moreover, the refreshing feeling can be felt still more effectively by extending the water 32 to the bathtub BT. More specifically, the formation of the sweat zone and the cool sensation zone in the second stage will be described. Compared to FIG. 5 (a), the sweat zone that has spread throughout the bathroom unit BR is narrowed, and the bathroom side of the bathroom unit BR is washed. Bathing in the bath BT area, which is a predetermined area (first area) included in the (washing area), in the vicinity of the bench counter 224 and opened as a result of aggregation of the perspiration zone (second area) A cool feeling zone where the person H can feel a refreshing feeling is formed. When the perspiration fluid HF is composed of mist and warm air, the direction of the warm air is concentrated toward a predetermined area (first area) included in the washing area (wash area) of the bathroom unit BR. Aggregate sweating zones. The bench BT2 is configured so that the bather H can sit and rest, and is provided as a rest area for the bather H. In the second stage of the zone air-conditioning control, the sweat zones are gathered to open the rest area and are included in the cool feeling zone.

  In this second example, even when the cool sensation zone is formed, it is necessary to maintain and ensure that the bather H1 can comfortably perform a mist sauna bath in the sweating zone, and the bather H2 returns to the sweating area. The control content is different from the first example in that it is necessary to secure a relatively large sweat zone even when the cool feeling zone is formed so that the mist sauna can be taken comfortably.

  Specifically, in the second example, it is difficult to separate the sweat zone and the cool feeling zone for the above reasons, and the situation becomes that they are close to each other, so the cool fluid CF and the sweat fluid HF are mixed and the cool zone On the other hand, the degree of coolness is low, and conversely, a temperature drop occurs in the perspiration zone. For this reason, in the cool sensation zone, it is desirable to perform control such as lowering the temperature of the cool sensation fluid CF so as to increase the degree of cool sensation or locally sending out the cool sensation fluid CF.

  Further, in the third stage of the first example (FIG. 2 (c)), since there are no bathers in the sweat zone, the temperature, humidity, mist particle size, etc. are maintained in the conditions necessary for the optimum mist environment. Since there is no need, it is preferable to perform control that places importance on suppressing the temperature drop in the sweat zone at the expense of these. For example, it can be said that it is optimal to take measures such as increasing the temperature of the perspiration fluid HF or increasing the particle size of the warm mist to suppress the temperature drop. However, in the second example, there is a possibility that the bather may remain in the perspiration zone, so that it is not possible to perform the extreme control as in the first example, and the temperature drop accompanying the delivery of the cool sensation fluid CF and the optimum It is necessary to perform control so that the maintenance of a safe mist sauna environment is compatible to some extent optimally. In the present embodiment, different controls are performed in the first example and the second example based on these findings.

  Subsequently, in the third example of the zone air conditioning control shown in FIG. 5C, the second stage (FIG. 5B) of the second example of the zone air conditioning control performs the zone separation air conditioning control of two zones. In contrast, this is an example in which zone separation air-conditioning control of three-zone separation is performed. The difference between the two-zone separation and the three-zone separation is that the three-zone separation narrows the position of the perspiration fluid HF ejected from the bathroom air conditioner body 10 as compared with the two-zone separation shown in FIG. The sweat zone and the cool feeling zone are more effectively formed, and an intermediate zone in which nothing is ejected is formed. The intermediate zone and the cool sensation zone are formed as evacuation zones in which bathers can obtain different cool sensations.

  In the second and third examples of the zone air conditioning control described above, the wash area including the bench counter 224 is the first area, and the remaining area (including the bench BT1 and the bathtub BT) in the bathroom unit BR is the second area. Yes. Therefore, the bathroom unit BR configured as one space that is not separated by an entity is divided into a predetermined first area and a second area, and a sweating zone is formed in at least a part of the first area. While being formed, a cool feeling zone is always formed on the benches BT1 and BT2 which are at least a part of the second region. As a result, the bath unit BR is configured so that the bather can move between the sweat zone and the cool sensation zone, enabling the bather to cycle bathing that allows the bather to experience the perception of sweat and cool sensation alternately.

  As shown in FIG. 9, the detailed setting panel 432 in the escape mode is displayed so that “cool feeling condition setting”, “cool feeling zone construction condition setting”, and “separation form” can be set as major items.

  In the “cool feeling condition setting”, two conditions of “AUTO” and “manual setting” are provided. “AUTO” automatically optimizes the degree of coolness for the coolness zone and the maintenance of the mist environment for the sweating zone, but “automatic sweating zone temperature maintenance priority” or “ “Cool feeling priority in cool zone” can be selected. This is because when the cool sensation fluid CF is sent out in forming the cool sensation zone, the temperature of the sweating zone inevitably drops even if the zone separation control is performed. Use the degree to which you want to keep the conflicting request to keep the mist environment in the sweating zone optimal when you next enter the sweating zone for cycle bathing It is intended to meet the demands of those who are not.

  If "Sweating zone temperature maintenance priority" is selected, priority will be given to a comfortable mist sauna bath without waiting when the temperature of the sweat zone does not drop, and when returning to the sweat zone from the cool feeling zone Thus, the CPU 40 energizes the heaters 60, 61, 62 to increase the temperature, raise the temperature of the cool sensation fluid CF, and reduce the amount of the cool sensation fluid CF delivered. On the other hand, if you select “Cool sensation priority in the cool sensation zone”, the temperature in the sweat zone will drop slightly, and even if you need a little time to get a comfortable mist environment, you can get the cool sensation in the cool sensation zone more optimally. While the CPU 40 suppresses the energization to the heaters 60, 61, 62, it controls to stop the ejection of the temperature mist for a predetermined period, lower the temperature of the cool sensation fluid, and increase the ejection amount.

  In “manual setting”, the degree of coolness and the contents of control are finely set according to the user's preference, and when the “escape mode” button 43cd is operated, control is performed according to the setting contents. Is. In terms of contents, “cool feeling medium setting”, “cool wind setting”, and “automatic hot water / water filling setting” can be set. “Cool sensation medium setting” is configured so that the cool sensation fluid CF for the cool sensation zone can be selected from “cool breeze + cool water mist”, “cool water only”, or “cool wind only”.

It is configured so that it can be freely selected according to. When “hot water” is selected, the CPU 40 outputs an instruction signal to fill the hot water supply / hot water supply device 52 with hot water. When “water” is selected, the CPU 40 outputs an instruction signal to fill the water / hot water supply device 52 with water.

  The “cooling zone construction condition setting” is configured so that “constant construction”, “automatic cycle construction”, or “manual setup construction” can be selected.

  When “always constructed” is selected, the CPU 40 performs control so that a cool feeling zone is always constructed with respect to the sweating zone. When “automatic cycle construction” is selected, the CPU 40 performs control so that the cool zone is automatically formed in the area set in advance for the sweat zone with the set number of cycles. The cycle can be set by setting the “Sweating time”, “Cooling time”, and “Number of sweating cycles”. After the set sweating time, the construction of the cooling sensation zone starts and the cooling sensation zone is built for the set cooling sensation time. Thus, the control is performed so as to eliminate the cool feeling zone, and this cycle is performed for the set number of sweating cycles.

  When “manual setting construction” is selected, the CPU 40 controls so that a cool feeling zone is formed according to the bather's operation. In “manual setting construction”, “ON / OFF method” and “cool feeling zone construction for a predetermined time after ON” can be set. The “ON / OFF method” is a method for constructing a cool sensation zone according to a bather's operation and canceling the construction. “Constructing a cool sensation zone for a predetermined time after the ON” is a method in which a cool sensation zone is constructed for a time set according to the bather's operation (1 minute in FIG. 9), and the construction is canceled after the lapse of that time.

  In the “separation mode”, “3-zone separation” or “2-zone separation” can be selected. The “separated form” is also configured so that a two-step cool zone formation or a one-step cool zone formation can be selected.

  “3-zone separation” is a mode of formation of the cool feeling zone described with reference to FIG. 5C, and an intermediate zone is provided between the perspiration zone and the cool feeling zone. “2-zone separation” means separation into a sweating zone and a cool feeling zone.

When the sweat zone is formed, not only the sweat zone side movable louver 501 but also the cool feeling zone side movable louver 511 is directed to the sweat zone side.

  On the other hand, when the cool feeling zone is formed, energization to the heater 60 is stopped and cool air is sent out. Along with this cool air delivery, low temperature cool water mist is ejected from the mist nozzle 72. In forming the cool sensation zone, it is also preferable to send out only the cool water mist as the cool sensation fluid CF. What mode is adopted as the cool fluid CF depends on the detailed setting in the bathroom operation remote controller 43 as described with reference to FIG.

  Then, the 1st modification of the bathroom air conditioner main body 10 is shown in FIG. FIG. 16 is a diagram schematically illustrating an internal configuration of a bathroom air conditioner body 10a as a first modification.

A circulation / ventilation switching damper 551 is provided between the ventilation air passage 103f and the second air passage portion 103b and the third air passage portion 103c. The circulation / ventilation switching damper 551 is driven by a damper drive motor 55 that rotates based on an instruction signal from the CPU 40 of the bathroom mist sauna apparatus MS (see FIG. 6).

  Heating heaters 60, 61, and 62 are attached to the terminal portion of the third air passage portion 103c. The energization state of the heaters 60, 61, 62 is controlled by switches 601, 611, 621 that open and close based on an instruction signal from the CPU 40 of the bathroom mist sauna apparatus MS.

  A cool air fan 531a is provided in the fourth air passage portion 103d. Similarly to the circulation fan 531, the cool air fan 531a is driven by a circulation fan drive motor 53a that rotates based on an instruction signal from the CPU 40 of the bathroom mist sauna apparatus MS. Furthermore, a circulation / ventilation switching damper 551a is provided in the fourth air passage portion 103d. The circulation / ventilation switching damper 551a is driven by a damper drive motor 55a that rotates based on an instruction signal from the CPU 40 of the bathroom mist sauna apparatus MS.

  FIG. 17 shows a state in which the fourth air passage portion 103d is connected to the ceiling of the washroom DR. It is also preferable that the ventilation air passage 103f is connected to the outside of the house where the bathroom unit BR is installed so as to allow ventilation. The fourth air passage portion 103d is also preferably connected to the washroom DR adjacent to the bathroom unit BR so as to allow ventilation. The fourth air passage portion 103d is provided at a position where it can suck in cool air or hot air blown from the air conditioner AC provided in the washroom DR.

  Returning to FIG. 16, the cover portion 104 is attached so as to cover the air passage portion 103. The cover portion 104 covers the air passage portion 103 and is attached in a state in which a predetermined gap is secured between the flat ceiling portion 241 (see FIG. 1) of the ceiling member 24 of the bathroom unit BR. Therefore, when the circulation fan 531 attached to the air passage portion 103 rotates, air is sucked from the gap between the cover portion 104 and the ceiling portion 241.

  An opening 104a is formed in a portion of the cover portion 104 corresponding to the first air passage portion 103a. An opening 104b is formed in a portion of the cover portion 104 corresponding to the third air passage portion 103c. Three sweat zone-side movable louvers 501 are provided in the opening 104b. The three sweat zone-side movable louvers 501 are attached immediately below the heaters 60, 61, 62.

  An opening 104c is formed in a portion of the cover portion 104 corresponding to the fifth air passage portion 103e. A cool sensation zone side movable louver 511 is provided in the opening 104c.

  Mist nozzles 73 and 74 are provided in the vicinity of the two sweat zone side movable louvers 501 out of the three sweat zone side movable louvers 501. Near the cool zone movable louver 511, a mist nozzle 72 is provided. The mist nozzle 72 and the mist nozzles 73 and 74 are attached to the opposite sides with the openings 104a, 104b, and 104c interposed therebetween. Therefore, the mist ejection direction of the mist nozzle 72 and the mist ejection direction of the mist nozzles 73 and 74 are configured to be opposite to each other.

  In the bathroom air conditioner main body 10a shown in FIG. 16, when the sweat zone is formed, the circulation fan 531 is rotated in a state where the heaters 60, 61, 62 are energized, and warm air is sent into the bathroom. Along with this warm air delivery, warm mist is ejected from the mist nozzles 73 and 74 to make the inside of the bathroom a mist sauna space.

  On the other hand, when forming a cool feeling zone, the cool wind fan 531a is rotated to send cool air. Along with this cool air delivery, it is also preferable to eject cool water mist from the mist nozzle 72. In the bathroom air conditioner main body 10a, the air passage for sending the hot air and the air passage for sending the cool air are provided independently, so the fan rotation amount can be changed according to each request of the hot air and the cool air. Thus, the sweating zone and the cool feeling zone can be formed more efficiently. In forming the cool sensation zone, an air amount that is substantially the same as or slightly larger than the amount of air flowing in from the fourth air passage portion 103d is ventilated through the ventilation air passage 103f. This is because if the outside air or air from the next room (toilet) is taken into the bathroom, the air pressure in the bathroom will increase, and the air in the bathroom will be ejected from the galley of the bathroom door toward the next room (toilet). This is to prevent it.

  FIG. 18 shows an example in which the bathroom air conditioner body 10a is installed. As shown in FIG. 18, the bathroom air conditioner main body 10a is installed so that the bathtub BT side is a cool zone and the washing area is a sweat zone. When installed in this way, both cool air CW and warm air HW circulate along the side wall of the bathroom. The cool air CW rises along the inner side wall of the bathtub BT, and the hot air HW rises along the outer side wall of the bathtub BT. Therefore, the cool air CW and the warm air HW circulated in the bathroom unit BR can be efficiently sucked from the opening 104a. As a result, the warm air and the cool air flow beautifully in parallel along the bathtub, so that mixing of the two air currents can be suppressed, and the sweat zone and the cool zone can be optimally formed.

  Then, the 2nd modification of the bathroom air conditioner main body 10 is shown to FIG. FIG. 19 is a diagram schematically showing an internal configuration of a bathroom air conditioner body 10b as a second modification. FIG. 20 is a view of the bathroom air conditioner main body 10b as viewed from below in FIG.

  A bathroom air conditioner main body 10 b shown in FIGS. 19 and 20 includes an air passage portion 105 and a cover portion 106. The air passage portion 105 is connected to the first air passage portion 105a, the second air passage portion 105b, the third air passage portion 105c, and the fourth air passage portion 105d.

  The first air passage portion 105a, the second air passage portion 105b, and the third air passage portion 105c are connected to form an angle of 90 degrees with each other. Therefore, the direction of the air sucked from the first air passage portion 105a and the direction of the air ejected from the third air passage portion 105c form an angle of 180 degrees.

  The fourth air passage portion 105d is connected to the second air passage portion 105b, and is provided in parallel with the third air passage portion 105c. The fourth air passage portion 105d is provided along the third air passage portion 105c, and is arranged so that the end of the fourth air passage portion 105d and the end of the third air passage portion 105c are adjacent to each other. ing.

  A circulation fan 531 is provided in the vicinity of the portion where the first air passage portion 105a and the second air passage portion 105b are connected. Circulation fan 531 is driven by circulation fan drive motor 53 that rotates based on an instruction signal from CPU 40 of bathroom mist sauna apparatus MS (see FIG. 6).

  A ventilation air passage 105e is connected to a portion where the second air passage portion 105b and the third air passage portion 105c are connected. A circulation / ventilation switching damper 551 is provided between the ventilation air passage 105e and the second air passage portion 105b and the third air passage portion 105c. The circulation / ventilation switching damper 551 is driven by a damper drive motor 55 that rotates based on an instruction signal from the CPU 40 of the bathroom mist sauna apparatus MS (see FIG. 6).

  Heating heaters 60, 61, and 62 are attached to the terminal portion of the third air passage portion 105c. The energization state of the heaters 60, 61, 62 is controlled by switches 601, 611, 621 that open and close based on an instruction signal from the CPU 40 of the bathroom mist sauna apparatus MS.

  A cool air damper 551b is provided at the end of the fourth air passage portion 105d on the second air passage portion 105b side. The cool air damper 551b is driven by a damper drive motor 55b that rotates based on an instruction signal from the CPU 40 of the bathroom mist sauna apparatus MS. The cool air damper 551b is opened when the escape mode button 43cd (see FIG. 8) is pressed and the escape mode is turned on, and cool air is jetted into the cool feeling zone. On the other hand, when the escape mode button 43cd is pressed again to turn off the escape mode, the cool wind damper 551b is closed and the formation of the cool feeling zone is released. The fourth air passage portion 105d may be configured such that the refrigerator 85 can cool the air.

  The cover portion 106 is attached so as to cover the air passage portion 105. The cover portion 106 covers the air passage portion 105 and is attached in a state where a predetermined gap is secured between the flat ceiling portion 241 (see FIG. 1) of the ceiling member 24 of the bathroom unit BR. Accordingly, when the circulation fan 531 attached to the air passage portion 105 rotates, air is sucked from the gap between the cover portion 106 and the ceiling portion 241.

  An opening 106a is formed in a portion of the cover portion 106 corresponding to the first air passage portion 105a. Three perspiration zone side movable louvers 501 are provided in the opening 106a. The three sweat zone-side movable louvers 501 are attached immediately below the heaters 60, 61, 62.

  An opening 106b is formed in a portion of the cover portion 106 corresponding to the fourth air passage portion 105d. A cool sensation zone side movable louver 511 is provided in the opening 106b.

  Mist nozzles 73 and 74 are provided in the vicinity of the two sweat zone side movable louvers 501 out of the three sweat zone side movable louvers 501. Near the cool zone movable louver 511, a mist nozzle 72 is provided. The mist nozzle 72 and the mist nozzles 73 and 74 are attached to the opposite sides with the openings 106a and 106b interposed therebetween. Therefore, the mist ejection direction of the mist nozzle 72 and the mist ejection direction of the mist nozzles 73 and 74 are configured to be opposite to each other.

  In the bathroom air conditioner main body 10b shown in FIGS. 19 and 20, when the sweat zone is formed, the circulating fan 531 is rotated in a state where the heaters 60, 61, and 62 are energized to send hot air into the bathroom. . Along with this warm air delivery, warm mist is ejected from the mist nozzles 73 and 74 to make the inside of the bathroom a mist sauna space.

  On the other hand, when forming a cool feeling zone, the cool wind damper 551b is opened, and cool air is sent out while operating the refrigerator 85. Along with this cool air delivery, it is also preferable to eject cool water mist from the mist nozzle 72. In the bathroom air conditioner main body 10b, the fourth air passage portion 105d for sending the cool air is provided independently of the third air passage portion 105c for sending the hot air so as to bypass the heaters 60, 61 and 62. Therefore, it is difficult to mix the warm air and the cool air, and the sweat zone and the cool feeling zone can be formed more efficiently. Moreover, since the cool air can be provided in a state where the heater 60 is energized, the temperature of the sweat zone can be more accurately maintained.

  When the refrigerator 85 is used in this way, it is not necessary to take in outside air or air from the adjacent room (toilet) into the bathroom when the cool zone is formed. As described above, in the bathroom air conditioner main body 10a, ventilation from the ventilation air passage 103f is necessary in order to take in outside air or air from the adjacent room (toilet). On the other hand, in this bathroom air conditioner body 10b, it is not necessary to take in outside air or air from the adjacent room (toilet), and there is no need to perform ventilation because the amount of air in the bathroom does not change. Therefore, the high temperature air in the perspiration zone is not discharged, and the temperature drop in the perspiration zone can be suppressed.

  Subsequently, in order to optimally construct the sweating zone and the cool sensation zone, the bathroom unit BR will be described in order to explain how the mist and air to be ejected from the bathroom air conditioner main body 10b are devised to separate the zones. The flow of mist and air will be described with reference to FIGS. 21 and 22, zone separation air conditioning control is performed so that the bathtub BT side is a cool feeling zone and the washing area side is a perspiration zone.

  First, in the case of constructing only a sweating zone where the escape mode button is not operated as shown in FIG. 21, the warm air HW is set to be blown out toward the bather H on the washing place side, and the warm mist HM It is ejected above the wind HW and ejected in such a manner as to get on the warm air HW. This is designed so that the mist does not fall on the floor immediately but floats for a long time, so that the mist can be quickly adjusted with a mist with little mist environment. Another object is to suppress discomfort caused by high-temperature hot mist directly hitting a bather. Moreover, the warm air HW is ejected toward the washing place side rather than the side wall BT3 of the bathtub BT. Therefore, the warm mist HM is sent out to the washing place by riding on the warm air HW. Accordingly, the washing area becomes a sweating zone, and the bather H sitting on the bench counter 224 can be encouraged to sweat.

  Next, the case where the escape mode button is operated to construct a cool feeling zone where the bather cools down will be described with reference to FIG. When the escape mode button is operated, the sweat zone side louver is adjusted so that the warm air HW is directed to the upper side which is the ceiling side, and the cool water mist CM and the cool air CW are ejected toward the bathtub BT. The warm mist HM is sent to the washing area on the warm air HW, but the cool water mist CM is sent in the cool wind CW so that the cool feeling zone can give a strong cool feeling. Thereby, the cool water mist CM can be strongly applied to the body of the bather H together with the cool breeze CW, and the cool feeling can be strongly felt.

  It can be seen that by changing the warm air HW upward, the warm mist HM is also changed upward due to the influence of the warm air. The purpose of changing in this way is to first separate the cool air CW from the hot air HW. Thereby, it is possible to suppress the temperature drop of the sweat zone due to the influence of the warm air HW and the cool air CW, and it is possible to give a strong cool feeling to the cool feeling zone side. Moreover, the warm air HW flows along the floor from the side wall of the bathroom unit BR, and a clean air flow rising along the outside of the side wall BT3 of the bathtub BT is generated. On the other hand, the cool breeze CW flows along the inside of the bathtub BT and rises along the inside of the side wall BT3 of the bathtub BT, so that a clean air current is generated. The warm air HW and the cool air CW that have risen along the side wall BT3 are sucked into the bathroom air conditioner main body 10b in a parallel state, so that the warm air HW and the cool air CW are not mixed. The mist HM and the cool water mist CM are taken into consideration so that the temperature does not become uniform.

  Subsequently, zone separation air conditioning control using the bathroom mist sauna apparatus MS will be described. FIG. 23 is a flowchart showing a flow of zone separation air conditioning control (escape mode) by the CPU 40. In the description with reference to FIG. 23, the setting temperature of the sweating zone is set to 36 ° C., the temperature of the cool feeling zone is set to 25 ° C., and the setting of the setting temperature of the sweating zone is given priority, and the cool feeling environment is automatically set. It is said.

  First, it is determined whether or not a flag F indicating whether or not a cool zone has been formed is set (step S01). If the flag F is 1, the process proceeds to step S20 described later. If the flag F is 0, the process proceeds to step S02.

  Subsequently, set values such as a cool zone temperature and a cool water mist temperature are read (step S02). As described with reference to FIG. 15, this setting value is a setting value set in the detailed setting of the escape mode. Thereafter, it is determined whether or not the escape mode for forming the cool feeling zone is ON (step S03). If the escape mode button 43cd (see FIG. 14) is operated and the escape mode is not ON, the process returns. If the escape mode button 43cd (see FIG. 8) is operated and the escape mode is ON, the process proceeds to step S04.

  Subsequently, it is determined whether or not the temperature of the sweat zone is within a target temperature range based on a set temperature (36 ° C. in this example) (step S04). If the temperature of the sweat zone is not within the target temperature range, the sweat zone has not been sufficiently constructed, and it is unlikely that the bather has operated the escape mode to cool down, and it may be an erroneous operation. There is a warning that it is impossible to form the escape mode because it is not preferable in terms of securing the mist sauna environment that there is a mist sauna environment and that it is not preferable to eject the cool sensation fluid in a state where the sweat zone is not complete (step S05) , Escape mode operation is not accepted. If the temperature of the sweat zone is within the target temperature range, the process proceeds to step S06.

  Subsequently, cool water having a set temperature is poured into the bathtub BT (step S06). This injection of cool water is performed when the bathtub BT side is in a cool feeling zone. If hot water is already filled in the bathtub BT, this step S06 is skipped. Moreover, when the bathtub BT side is a sweating zone, it controls so that hot water is forced about 20 centimeters at the same time as spraying of warm mist starts.

  Subsequently, circulating air blow is started toward the cool feeling zone (step S07). More specifically, the cool breeze damper 551b (see FIG. 19 and the like) is opened to send the cool breeze. Thereafter, the target temperature of the sweat zone is raised and the particle size of the warm mist is increased to maintain the temperature of the sweat zone. Further, it is suppressed that the mist having a larger particle size by dropping the jetting speed of the warm mist quickly falls on the floor surface and the feeling of mist disappears (step S08). In this case, it is also preferable to temporarily stop sending warm air and warm mist only at the beginning to suppress mixing with cool air so that a cool feeling can be strongly felt. When warm mist is sprayed, the temperature is easily equalized, so when constructing a cool sensation zone, temporarily stop warm air and warm mist, and then resume the jet of warm air only before the end of the cool sensation zone construction. In the aspect of optimizing the cool feeling zone, it is more preferable to restart the ejection of the warm mist.

  Subsequently, the sweating zone side movable louver is moved, and control is performed so that the warm air and the warm mist are retracted as shown in FIG. 22 (step S09). Thereafter, the rotational speed of the circulation fan 531 (see FIG. 6 and the like) is increased (step S10). This is a response to that because the initial bather in the cooldown wants to get a strong cool feeling, and it is a response to that, and the cool water mist that is blown out without the hot floating mist in the cool feeling zone There is also an object to prevent the temperature from becoming high.

  In step S10, it is determined whether 5 seconds have elapsed after the rotational speed of the circulation fan 531 is increased (step S11). This is to increase the fan rotation at the beginning of the escape when you want to get a cool feeling and give a strong cool feeling to the bather to give a high degree of cool feeling satisfaction. After determining that 5 seconds have elapsed in step S11, the cool zone temperature t is read by the cool zone temperature sensor (step S12).

  The deviation T1 between the cool zone temperature t read in step S11 and the cool zone target temperature Tt is calculated (step S13). Subsequently, it is determined whether or not the deviation T1 is 5 ° C. or more (step S14).

  In step S14, when the deviation T1 is not 5 ° C. or more, injection of cool water mist is started (step S15). In the ejection of the cool water mist in step S15, the particle diameter of the mist is made medium and the mist ejection speed is increased. This is because the deviation from the target temperature is small, and it seems that the cool feeling has already been obtained to an area that is almost close to the cool feeling that the bather wants to obtain. The particle size is moderate so as not to cause a temperature drop unnecessarily.

  It is determined whether or not 3 seconds have elapsed after the start of ejection of the cool water mist in step S15 (step S16). If 3 seconds have not elapsed, the process of step S15 is continued. If 3 seconds have elapsed, a flag F indicating whether or not a cool zone has been formed is set to 1 (step S19).

  In step S14, when the deviation T1 is 5 ° C. or more, injection of cool water mist is started (step S17). In the ejection of the cool water mist in step S17, the particle diameter of the mist is increased and the mist ejection speed is also increased. Since the deviation from the target temperature is still large, it is determined that the bather's cool feeling satisfaction level is still insufficient, and the particle size is increased so as to obtain a strong cool feeling. In addition, since it can suppress that it becomes high temperature by atmospheric temperature, so that a particle size is large, when it touches a bather, it can be made to feel cold.

  It is determined whether or not 5 seconds have elapsed after the start of ejection of the cool water mist in step S17 (step S18). If 5 seconds have not elapsed, the process of step S17 is continued. If 5 seconds have elapsed, a flag F indicating whether or not a cool zone has been formed is set to 1 (step S19).

  Subsequently, when the flag F indicating whether or not the cool sensation zone has been formed is 1 in step S01, the temperature of the sweat zone is read by the sweat zone side temperature sensor 46 (see FIG. 6 and the like) (step S20). . From here, it becomes the second stage control of cool feeling control. In other words, the initial stage of the escape start when you want to get a cool feeling is the first stage control. During this period, control is performed to give a strong cool feeling that will satisfy the bather rather than the temperature drop in the sweat zone. In the subsequent second stage control, the control zone is changed to a control zone that maintains the temperature of the sweat zone while giving a comfortable cool feeling rather than a strong cool feeling.

  Based on the temperature of the sweat zone read in step S20, it is determined whether or not the temperature drop of the sweat zone is equal to or higher than a predetermined value (step S21).

  In step S21, if the temperature drop in the perspiration zone is equal to or greater than a predetermined value, in order to avoid a further temperature drop, a temperature maintenance correction for the perspiration zone that suppresses the delivery of cool sensation fluid is performed (step S23). Specifically, correction is performed to increase the cool water mist ejection intermittent time detected in step S24 by 1.5, and the target correction control amount that is corrected to increase the target set temperature Tt of the cool sensation zone by 2 ° C. is used. (Target set temperature Tt = Tt + 2 ° C.). Thereby, since the deviation amount is apparently reduced, the ejection of the cool sensation fluid is suppressed, and the temperature maintenance performance of the sweat zone can be enhanced.

  In step S21, if the temperature drop in the sweating zone is not equal to or greater than the predetermined value, the temperature drop in the sweating zone still has room, and there is still a lot of room for giving a cool feeling satisfaction. Without correction, control is performed using a value calculated based on the deviation T1 between the cool zone temperature t and the cool zone target temperature Tt as it is.

  As shown in FIG. 23, the greater the deviation T1, the more the cool feeling satisfaction is considered to be insufficient, so the air volume is increased. Further, the larger the deviation T1, the larger the particle size of the cool water mist. Moreover, the intermittent ejection time of the cool water mist is shortened to increase the number of ejections per unit time. In step S08, the warm mist particle size in the sweat zone has already been increased (the dot-dash line in step S24 in FIG. 23 indicates the particle size of the warm mist in the sweat zone), but the cool water mist in the cool zone gives a strong cool feeling. Therefore, it is substantially larger than the particle size of the warm mist. Specifically, since the region where the deviation T1 is very small is not a region where it is desired to obtain a cool feeling, the particle size of the cool water mist is smaller than the particle size of the warm mist only in such a small region. It is what. By increasing the particle size of the cool water mist in this way, the cool water mist easily falls quickly, so that it is possible to suppress the floating in the air and suppress the temperature drop in the sweat zone. .

  By performing the process of step S24, the optimum cool water mist is ejected based on the deviation T1, but the amount of the cool water mist is about 1/5 of the amount of the warm mist with respect to the sweat zone. It can be seen that a cool sensation zone is constructed for a local area while maintaining the temperature. (See FIG. 24).

  Subsequently, it is determined whether or not the temperature of the cool zone is within the target temperature range (step S25). If the cool zone temperature is not within the target temperature range, the process returns to step S01. If the cool zone temperature is within the target temperature range, the process proceeds to step S26.

  Subsequently, the ejection of the cool water mist is stopped (step S26). Thereafter, it is determined whether or not the escape mode is turned off (step S27). If the escape mode is OFF, the flag F is set to 0, and the process returns to step S01 (step S28).

  If the escape mode is not turned off in step S27, it is determined whether the duration of the escape mode is a predetermined time or longer (step S29). If the duration time of the escape mode is not longer than the predetermined time, the process returns to step S01. If the duration of the escape mode is equal to or longer than the predetermined time, the ejection of the warm mist in the perspiration area is stopped (step S30). Thereafter, the flag F is set to 0, and the process returns to step S01 (step S31). This is a situation where the cool-down has been performed for too long, and it seems that he / she has stopped doing the cycle bathing, and maintaining a high temperature while blowing a warm mist to maintain the sweating zone is a great energy loss (If warm air alone is used, it is easy to maintain a high temperature, but if a hot mist is ejected, the temperature drops, and a large amount of energy is required to maintain the high temperature.) Only the wind continues. Note that this time, only the ejection of the warm mist is suspended, but if the escape mode continues for too long, it is useless and the warm air may also be suspended.

  This embodiment described above relates to a bathroom mist sauna device MS that forms a mist sauna space for encouraging the bather H to sweat in a bathroom space that is configured as one space that is not separated by an entity. . The bathroom mist sauna device MS includes a mist pump 541, a main valve 56, a warm mist valve 57, a cold mist valve 59, and mist nozzles 72, 73, 74 as mist ejection means for ejecting mist into the bathroom space. The bathroom mist sauna apparatus MS includes heating heaters 60, 61 and 62, a circulation fan 531 and a cool air fan 531a as temperature raising means for raising the temperature in the bathroom space. Further, the bathroom mist sauna apparatus MS includes a CPU 40 and a storage unit as control means for controlling the mist ejection means and the temperature raising means, respectively, so as to form a mist sauna space including at least a sweating zone that can encourage the bather H to sweat. 41 is provided. CPU40 and the memory | storage part 41 are the area | regions divided | segmented so that the bathroom space as one space may be located in a line with a horizontal direction irrespective of an entity, and each is the 1st area | region (the bathtub BT side in a predetermined position). A sweat zone in at least a part of the first region with respect to the second region (the region on the bathtub BT side or the region on the washing tub side, which is a region different from the first region) and the second region. The mist is ejected by the mist ejecting means and the temperature is raised by the temperature raising means so as to form a cool feeling zone that allows a bather who sweats in the sweat zone to feel a refreshing feeling in at least a part of the second region. By controlling the above, zone separation air conditioning control is performed. By the zone separation air conditioning control by the CPU 40 and the storage unit 41, a bathroom space is configured so that the bather H can go between the sweating zone and the cool feeling zone, and the bather alternates between the sweating and the cool feeling. Cycle bathing that you can experience is possible.

  According to the present embodiment, in contrast to the first region and the second region that are separated in the vertical direction without depending on the entity, the first region has a hot and humid sweat zone, and the second region has a cool feeling. Since each zone can be formed, it is possible to provide a sweat zone and a cool sensation zone intentionally formed so that the bather H can easily enter these zones (see FIGS. 1 to 5). Moreover, since the 1st area | region and the 2nd area | region are formed in the position divided | segmented side by side irrespective of the entity, the bather H can come and go freely between them. Accordingly, the bather H can come and go between the perspiration zone formed in the first area and the cool feeling zone formed in the second area at the timing he / she intended, and cools down at a more favorable timing for himself / herself. It becomes possible. Furthermore, since the sweating zone and the cool feeling zone can be formed side by side constantly in the intended time zone while the zone separation air conditioning control by the CPU 40 and the storage unit 41 is being performed (see the description related to FIG. 23), It is not necessary to replace all the warm air and cool air, and the energy efficiency can be further improved.

  Further, in this embodiment, the bathroom mist sauna device MS is a bather who moves the cool sensation fluid CF ejected to the cool sensation zone at a position eccentric on the cool sensation zone side on the ceiling constituting the bathroom space. Since it hits H, it is possible to reduce the decrease in the momentum of the cool sensation fluid CF, and furthermore, the floating time of the cool sensation fluid CF can be shortened. Can be suppressed. Therefore, a comfortable cool sensation zone can be formed more accurately by ejecting a small amount of cool sensation fluid CF.

  Moreover, in this embodiment, bathroom mist sauna apparatus MS is arrange | positioned above bathtub BT provided in the bathtub area | region, and CPU40 and the memory | storage part 41 are formed so that a cool feeling zone may be formed in at least one part of a bathtub area | region. The mist ejecting means (see above) and the temperature raising means (see above) are controlled. According to this aspect, since the bathroom mist sauna apparatus MS is arrange | positioned above the bathtub BT, a cool feeling zone can be accurately formed in the bathtub area | region side. When the cool sensation zone is formed on the bathtub area side, the amount of mist for forming the cool sensation zone stays in the bathtub BT and effectively flows into the wash area, so the temperature drop of the sweat zone formed on the wash area area side Can be suppressed.

  Further, in the present embodiment, the mist spray is such that the cool water mist CM sprayed toward the cool zone is sprayed substantially vertically downward, and the warm mist HM sprayed toward the sweat zone is sprayed substantially horizontally. Means (see above) and temperature raising means (see above) are configured. According to this aspect, since the cool sensation zone is formed below the bathroom mist sauna device MS, the cool sensation zone can be more accurately formed by ejecting the cool water mist CM sprayed to the cool sensation zone side substantially vertically downward. Can be formed. Further, since the sweat zone is formed in a region that is off the lower side of the bathroom mist sauna device MS, the sweat zone can be formed more accurately by ejecting the warm mist HM ejected to the sweat zone side in a substantially horizontal direction. . In addition, since the cool water mist CM sprayed to the cool zone and the warm mist HM sprayed to the sweat zone can be separated and sprayed separately, both mists are less likely to mix, and the sweat zone and cool feel more accurately. The zone can be formed separately. In other words, since the cool water mist CM that erupts into the cool sensation zone needs to give a pleasant cool sensation to the bather H, it is natural to lower the temperature, and to increase the momentum of the squirt so as to provide some stimulation. I found that it was effective. Based on these findings, the bathroom mist sauna device MS is arranged so as to be biased toward the cool sensation zone, so that the cool water mist CM can be ejected in a substantially vertical direction. As a result, the cool water mist CM is linear and Because it reaches the bather H by moving the shortest distance, it can give momentum to the cool water mist CM, and furthermore, the floating time can be shortened so that the cool water mist CM can be prevented from being warmed by the ambient temperature in the bathroom. . As a result, a pleasant cool feeling can be surely given. Furthermore, since a pleasant cool feeling can be surely given, the amount of spray of the cool water mist CM can be reduced, and the temperature drop in the sweating area can be suppressed. In addition, since it is possible to suppress the temperature rise of the cool water mist CM due to the ambient temperature, it is not necessary to take measures such as unnecessarily increasing the particle size, and therefore when the cool water mist CM contacts the bather H. An excellent effect that the touch can be made extremely good can also be achieved. In addition, the cool water mist CM can be struck against, for example, the bathtub BT or the floor so that it can be prevented from floating in the bathroom. As a result, the temperature drop in the sweat zone is also suppressed. This is advantageous from the viewpoint of.

  On the other hand, since the warm mist HM is ejected in a substantially horizontal direction with respect to the sweat zone, the warm mist HM ejected to the sweat zone does not feel that it is struck against the floor surface, but floats in the air. Since the fall can be suppressed, the mist environment in the perspiration zone can be efficiently maintained. Therefore, since the amount of ejection of the warm mist HM to the sweat zone can be reduced, the temperature rise of the cool zone can be suppressed, and the sweat zone and cool zone can be accurately separated. As a configuration for ejecting the mist substantially downward in the vertical direction, the mist nozzles 72, 73, 74, etc. may be configured to be directed substantially downward in the vertical direction. You may comprise so that it may decide.

  Further, in the present embodiment, the temperature raising means (see above) includes openings 104b and 106a as hot air blowing portions for blowing hot air into the bathroom space. In contrast to the first mode for performing control, the second mode for performing single-zone air conditioning control for forming only a sweat zone in the bathroom space is also provided, and when the second mode is shifted to the first mode, the opening 104b, The direction of the warm air ejected from 106a is changed so as to approach the ceiling (see FIGS. 21 and 22). According to this aspect, when changing from the second mode to the first mode, the jet direction of the warm air HW is changed to approach the ceiling, so that the bather H can comfortably mist when forming only the sweat zone. When bathing is controlled to allow sauna bathing and the sweating zone and cool feeling zone coexist, bather H moves to the cool feeling zone, so it is necessary to provide a comfortable mist sauna bathing environment for bather H Therefore, by making the warm mist HM along the ceiling with the warm air HW, it is possible to suppress the fall of the warm mist HM and to float in the space of the sweat zone for a long time. This makes it easier to maintain the mist environment in the sweat zone. In addition, this makes it easy to float the warm mist HM, so it is possible to increase the particle size of the warm mist HM. In that case, the thermal energy of the warm mist HM can be increased, further suppressing the temperature drop in the sweating area. Thus, it is possible to suitably maintain the mist environment.

  Moreover, in this embodiment, the particle size of the cool water mist CM ejected to the cool feeling zone side is larger than the particle size of the warm mist HM ejected to the sweat zone side. According to this aspect, by increasing the particle size of the cool water mist CM ejected to the cool sensation zone side, a strong refreshing feeling can be felt by the bather, and the cool water mist CM sprayed to the cool sense zone side Floating to the sweat zone side can be suppressed.
