Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide mixing valves for water combination faucet having a mist nozzle for heating or cooling sauna simply attachable to an existing eccentric pipe and obtaining stable temperature of hot bath mist sauna and cool-down mist sauna. <P>SOLUTION: New mixing valves for water combination faucet can be comparatively simply manufactured by merely adding a branching part for mounting the mist nozzle 9 and adding an opening and closing valve for the mist nozzle 9 being an objective and the mist nozzle 9 to the branching part of a hot water supply side and a water supply side. The hot water having high temperature before mixing hot water and water together comes out of the mist nozzle 9 in the hot bath mist sauna, and the tap water before mixing hot water and water together comes out of the mist nozzle 9 in the cool-down mist sauna. Even if the hot water having high temperature in the hot bath mist sauna and the hot water having moderate temperature for shower are simultaneously used, respective temperatures can be stably obtained. Even if the tap water in the cool-down mist sauna and the hot water having moderate temperature for shower are simultaneously used, respective temperatures can be stably obtained. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT

Description

The present invention has a function of spraying hot water or tap water in the bathroom before or during bathing, after bathing, etc. in the bathroom to make a warm bath mist sauna or cool down mist sauna, sauna effect, heating effect, cooling effect, etc. It is a mixing plug with a mist nozzle that can be used for the sauna heating and cooling.

In order to install a mist nozzle, there are things that require troublesome piping work and those that require significant renovation and expensive equipment in the bathroom,
For easy installation, remove the faucet and attach it to the hot water outlet at the location where the faucet is attached.If you use a mist sauna and shower at the same time, both will have the same temperature after mixing hot water and water, What is unsuitable is known.

If a mixer tap has an existing eccentric pipe, a mist nozzle can be easily attached to the hot water supply pipe and water supply pipe by attaching a branch fitting to any of the two-valve mixer tap, one-lever mixer tap, and thermo-equipped mixer tap. Just by making a simple modification of the mixing tap, a warm bath mist sauna and cool down mist sauna can be created in the bathroom.
Even when used at the same time as the high temperature of a hot bath mist sauna and an appropriate temperature such as a shower, each temperature can be stably obtained,
Or, even when the tap water temperature of the cool down mist sauna and an appropriate temperature such as a shower are used at the same time, it is an object to provide inexpensively that each temperature can be stably obtained and the sauna can be heated and cooled. .

When manufacturing a new mixing plug, add a branching part to the hot water supply side and the water supply side, or add a branching part to the eccentric pipe itself, or a part where the eccentric pipe, hot water, and water are mixed with a mixing plug with an existing eccentric pipe A socket is added to the middle part of the unit so that it can be branched, so that the target mist nozzle can be easily attached to the mixer tap regardless of the existing installation.
In the hot bath mist sauna, a mist nozzle is attached to the branch on the hot water supply side, and the bathroom is heated in the sauna so that the high temperature before mixing the hot water and water comes out of the mist nozzle.
In the cool-down mist sauna, a mist nozzle is installed at the branch on the water supply side to cool the bathroom so that tap water before mixing hot water and water comes out of the mist nozzle,
Each mist nozzle mounting part has an open / close valve,
Even when used at the same time as the high temperature of a hot bath mist sauna and an appropriate temperature such as a shower, each temperature is stably obtained,
Alternatively, even when the tap water temperature of the cool down mist sauna and an appropriate temperature such as a shower are used at the same time, each temperature can be stably obtained and can be realized at low cost.

For example, when the tap water is 15 degrees, the hot water supply temperature is 60 degrees, the shower or faucet is 40 degrees, the method of using the mist nozzle capable of heating and cooling the sauna, and the mixing tap having the method of use is used in the hot bath mist sauna. Hot water supply temperature of 60 degrees before mixing with water is sprayed from the hot bath mist nozzle, and when the shower or faucet is mixed with hot water and water at 40 degrees, the bathroom is heated with a 60 degree mist spray by the hot bath mist sauna. It can be used at the same time 40 degree shower of moderate temperature while heating the sauna,
When used in a cool down mist sauna, the tap water temperature of 15 degrees before the hot water and water are mixed is sprayed from the cool down mist nozzle, and the shower or faucet mixes with hot water and water at 40 degrees to bring it into the bathroom. Is cooled by a mist spray of 15 degrees with a cool down mist sauna, and a moderate temperature shower or faucet can be used at the same time while cooling, and the same temperature can be obtained even when used alone.

There is a hot water supply pipe and a water supply pipe connection port on the wall in the bathroom, and in the mixing plug that connects the hot water supply side and the water supply side connection port to the eccentric pipe of the mixing plug,
A branch is added to the eccentric pipe on the hot water supply side, or a socket is added in the middle of the eccentric pipe and the part where hot water and water are mixed to allow branching, and there is an existing eccentric pipe. Easy to attach to the mixing plug, by attaching the target mist nozzle directly to the branch part,
Hot water before mixing the hot water from the mixing tap can be sprayed from the mist nozzle, and the shower and faucet of the mixing tap is supplied with moderate hot water after mixing the hot water and water, and at the same time the mist nozzle and the shower and faucet Both of them are supplied with stable temperatures, and a warm bath mist sauna and shower etc. are possible at the same time,
Add a branching part to the eccentric pipe itself on the water supply side, or add a socket to the part located between the eccentric pipe and the part where hot water and water are mixed to allow branching, and mixing with the existing eccentric pipe It can be easily attached to the stopper, and by attaching the target mist nozzle directly to the branch part,
The tap water before mixing the hot water and water from the mixer tap can be sprayed from the mist nozzle, and the shower and faucet of the mixer tap is supplied with moderate hot water after mixing the hot water and water, and at the same time the mist nozzle and shower and faucet are Even if both are used, each stable temperature is supplied and cool down mist sauna and shower etc. are possible at the same time,
It has a mist nozzle for warm bath and a mist nozzle for cool down,
Each mist nozzle has a hole that can spray hot water or water in a mist form,
There is an open / close valve between each branch and mist nozzle,
The tip of the mist nozzle can be easily removed, and the tip of the mist nozzle can be easily replaced or the filter in the middle of the mist nozzle can be easily replaced.
Use of a mist nozzle that can be heated and cooled in a sauna, characterized by the fact that the middle of the socket branch and mist nozzle, which are part of the mixing plug, can rotate or flexibly move the direction of the mist nozzle back and forth, left and right, up and down A mixing stopper having a method and a method for using the method.
