本発明によれば、浴槽に接続された循環路に浴槽水を循環させる機能を備えたポンプを設け、該ポンプの吐出側の循環路には水を貯留するタンクを備えた加圧容器の水導入部を接続し、該加圧容器の水導出部側の循環路には切り替え弁を介して水を中水導出口に導く中水通路を接続しており、中水利用指令が加えられたとき又は前記中水導出口の開動作が行われたときに浴槽の検出水位が予め定められる中水利用設定水位以上あったときには、加圧容器から導出される空気加圧溶融水を前記中水通路に適宜導入することができる。なお、中水導出口の開動作とは、中水導出口の栓を開く動作やレバー開動作等、中水導出口から中水を導出するための動作である。   According to the present invention, a pump having a function of circulating bath water in a circulation path connected to the bathtub is provided, and water in a pressurized container having a tank for storing water in the circulation path on the discharge side of the pump. An introductory part was connected, and a circulation path on the water outlet part side of the pressurized vessel was connected with a middle water passage for guiding water to the middle water outlet through a switching valve, and a middle water utilization instruction was added. Or when the detected water level of the bathtub is equal to or higher than a predetermined water utilization set water level when the intermediate water outlet opening operation is performed, the air pressurized molten water derived from the pressurized container is It can be appropriately introduced into the passage. The opening operation of the intermediate water outlet is an operation for extracting intermediate water from the intermediate water outlet such as an operation of opening a stopper of the intermediate water outlet or a lever opening operation.

そして、中水通路に導入された空気加圧溶融水を中水白濁用微細気泡噴出装置によって減圧して噴出させて中水通路内の水に微細気泡を噴出させ、その微細気泡の含有水を前記中水導出口から適宜導出することができる。微細気泡を含有する水は、汚れを落とす効果が高いために、中水導出口から導出して再利用する中水(浴槽水)に前記のように微細気泡を含有させて導出することにより、例えば靴洗浄やトイレ洗浄等において汚れを落としやすくすることができる。また、中水利用停止指令が加えられたときや、前記中水導出口の閉動作が行われたときには、前記微細気泡の含有水の前記中水導出口からの導出を停止することにより、水の無駄などを省くことができる。なお、中水導出口の閉動作とは、中水導出口の栓を閉じる動作やレバー閉動作等、中水導出口からの中水導出を停止するための動作であり、中水導出口の開動作後に自動的に中水導出口側に設けられている弁が閉じられる場合の弁閉動作も含む。   Then, the air pressurized molten water introduced into the middle water passage is decompressed and ejected by the fine water jet device for white water cloudiness, and the fine bubbles are ejected into the water in the middle water passage, and the water contained in the fine bubbles is discharged. It can derive | lead-out suitably from the said middle water outlet. Since the water containing fine bubbles has a high effect of removing dirt, by introducing the fine bubbles into the middle water (tub water) to be derived and reused through the middle water outlet, For example, dirt can be easily removed in shoe washing or toilet washing. In addition, when an instruction for stopping the use of intermediate water is applied or when the operation of closing the intermediate water outlet is performed, water is stopped by stopping the supply of the fine bubble-containing water from the intermediate water outlet. Can be saved. The closing operation of the intermediate water outlet is an operation for stopping the outlet of the intermediate water outlet such as closing the stopper of the intermediate water outlet or closing the lever. It also includes a valve closing operation in the case where a valve provided on the middle water outlet port side is automatically closed after the opening operation.

また、浴槽への循環路の接続部にも浴槽白濁用微細気泡噴出装置を設けて、前記空気加圧溶融水を減圧して噴出させ、浴槽内の水に微細気泡を噴出させることによって、浴槽内にも適宜、微細気泡を発生させることができ、利用者に、快適な入浴タイムを促すことができる。   In addition, a bath turbidity fine bubble ejection device is also provided at the connection portion of the circulation path to the bathtub, and the air pressurized molten water is decompressed and ejected, and the microbubbles are ejected into the water in the bathtub, Fine bubbles can be appropriately generated inside, and the user can be encouraged to have a comfortable bathing time.

さらに、加圧容器内の圧力を検出する圧力検出手段を設け、微細気泡含有中水導出制御手段は、前記圧力検出手段により検出される加圧容器内の圧力が予め定めたポンプオン設定圧力以下になったときにポンプの駆動を開始することにより、中水導出口側から水の導出が行われて加圧容器内の圧力がポンプオン設定圧力以下に下がったときに、迅速に、微細気泡含有水の中水を中水導出口から導出することができる。つまり、前記特許文献1においては、浴槽の残り湯の使用開始後に、信号を送り、その信号を受けてポンプを駆動するようにしているので、ポンプ駆動がワンテンポ遅れるのに対し、加圧容器内の圧力に応じてポンプ駆動開始することにより、迅速にポンプの駆動を開始できる。   Further, a pressure detection means for detecting the pressure in the pressurized container is provided, and the fine bubble-containing middle water derivation control means is configured such that the pressure in the pressurized container detected by the pressure detection means falls below a predetermined pump-on set pressure. By starting the drive of the pump, the water is discharged from the middle water outlet, and when the pressure in the pressurized container falls below the pump-on set pressure, the water containing fine bubbles is quickly The middle water can be led out from the middle water outlet. That is, in Patent Document 1, a signal is sent after the start of use of the remaining hot water in the bathtub, and the pump is driven by receiving the signal. By starting the pump drive according to the pressure of the pump, the drive of the pump can be started quickly.

また、中水利用停止指令が加えられたときにポンプの駆動を停止したり、加圧容器内の圧力が前記ポンプオン設定圧力よりも高い予め定めたポンプオフ設定圧力以上になったときにポンプの駆動を停止したりすることにより、適切なタイミングでポンプを停止することができる。また、加圧容器内の圧力がポンプオフ設定圧力以上になったときにポンプの駆動を停止することにより、加圧容器内の圧力を適宜の高い圧力にすることができる。   Also, the pump is stopped when a stoppage instruction for using the intermediate water is applied, or when the pressure in the pressurized container becomes equal to or higher than a preset pump-off set pressure higher than the pump-on set pressure. By stopping the pump, the pump can be stopped at an appropriate timing. In addition, by stopping the driving of the pump when the pressure in the pressurization container becomes equal to or higher than the pump-off set pressure, the pressure in the pressurization container can be appropriately increased.

さらに、中水通路に水貯留タンクを介設して該水貯留タンクに中水(つまり、浴槽から中水通路に導入される水)を貯留しておき、微細気泡含有中水導出制御手段は、中水利用指令が加えられてから前記水貯留タンク内の圧力が予め定めたポンプオン設定圧力以下になったときにポンプの駆動を開始することにより、前記と同様に、ポンプ駆動開始がワンテンポ遅れることがなく、中水導出口側から水の導出が行われて中水通路および水貯留タンク内の圧力が設定圧力以下に下がったときに迅速に、微細気泡含有水の中水を中水導出口から導出することができる。また、水貯留タンク内の圧力が前記ポンプオン設定圧力よりも高い予め定めたポンプオフ設定圧力以上になったときにポンプの駆動を停止することにより、適切なタイミングでポンプを停止することができるし、水貯留タンク内の圧力を適宜の高い圧力にすることができる。   Further, a water storage tank is provided in the intermediate water passage to store intermediate water (that is, water introduced into the intermediate water passage from the bathtub) in the water storage tank. The pump drive start is delayed by one tempo as described above by starting the pump drive when the pressure in the water storage tank becomes equal to or lower than the preset pump-on set pressure after the medium water use command is added. If the water is discharged from the outlet of the intermediate water and the pressure in the intermediate water passage and the water storage tank drops below the set pressure, the intermediate water of the water containing fine bubbles is promptly introduced. It can be derived from the exit. Moreover, the pump can be stopped at an appropriate timing by stopping the driving of the pump when the pressure in the water storage tank becomes equal to or higher than a predetermined pump-off setting pressure higher than the pump-on setting pressure, The pressure in the water storage tank can be appropriately increased.

さらに、中水通路に水貯留タンクを介設して該水貯留タンクに中水(つまり、浴槽から中水通路に導入される水)を貯留しておき、該水貯留タンクに、該水貯留タンク内が予め定めたオン駆動圧以下になるとオンして該オン駆動圧よりも高い予め定めたオフ駆動圧以上になるとオフする圧力スイッチを設け、微細気泡含有中水導出制御手段は、前記圧力スイッチのオン信号が加えられたときにポンプの駆動を開始することにより、前記と同様に、ポンプ駆動開始がワンテンポ遅れることがなく、中水導出口側が開かれて中水通路および水貯留タンク内の圧力が下がって圧力スイッチがオンしたときに迅速に、微細気泡含有水の中水を中水導出口から導出することができる。また、水貯留タンク内の圧力スイッチのオフ信号が加えられたときにポンプの駆動を停止することにより、適切なタイミングでポンプを停止することができるし、水貯留タンク内の圧力を適宜の高い圧力にすることができる。   Further, a water storage tank is provided in the intermediate water passage to store intermediate water (that is, water introduced from the bathtub into the intermediate water passage), and the water storage tank stores the water storage tank. A pressure switch that is turned on when the inside of the tank becomes equal to or lower than a predetermined on-driving pressure and that is turned off when the inside of the tank becomes higher than a predetermined off-driving pressure that is higher than the on-driving pressure is provided. By starting the pump operation when the switch ON signal is applied, the pump drive start is not delayed by one tempo, and the intermediate water outlet side is opened and the intermediate water passage and the water storage tank are opened. When the pressure decreases and the pressure switch is turned on, the medium water containing fine bubbles can be quickly derived from the medium water outlet. Moreover, the pump can be stopped at an appropriate timing by stopping the driving of the pump when an off signal of the pressure switch in the water storage tank is applied, and the pressure in the water storage tank can be appropriately increased. Can be pressure.

さらに、中水通路に水貯留タンクを設けて該水貯留タンクに圧力センサを設ける構成や圧力スイッチを設ける構成において、ポンプの駆動開始から予め定められた弁開設定待機時間が経過するまでは空気導入手段を閉状態とし、前記設定時間が経過した以降に前記空気導入手段を開状態として空気を浴槽水に溶融させるようにすることで、以下の効果を奏することができる。   Furthermore, in a configuration in which a water storage tank is provided in the middle water passage and a pressure sensor is provided in the water storage tank, or in a configuration in which a pressure switch is provided, air is maintained until a predetermined valve opening set standby time elapses from the start of driving the pump The following effects can be achieved by closing the introduction means and opening the air introduction means after the set time has elapsed so as to melt the air in the bath water.

つまり、中水通路に設けた水貯留タンクのタンク内の圧力は、中水導出口が閉じている状態のときには、例えば100KPa(約1kg/cm)の圧力に保たれており、中水導出口が開くと、水貯留タンク内の空気に押されて水が中水導出口から導出されて、一時的に(中水導出口が開かれてから、前記ポンプが駆動開始するまでの間に)、水貯留タンク内の圧力は100KPaより下がる。そして、水貯留タンク内の圧力がポンプオンに適した圧力以下になったとき(つまり、圧力センサにより検出される検出圧力がポンプオン設定圧力以下になったときや、圧力が圧力スイッチのオン駆動圧以下になったとき)にポンプが駆動開始されて、中水が水貯留タンクに導入されると共に、中水は中水通路および水貯留タンクを通して中水導出口から導出される。 That is, the pressure in the tank of the water storage tank provided in the intermediate water passage is maintained at a pressure of, for example, 100 KPa (about 1 kg / cm 2 ) when the intermediate water outlet is closed. When the outlet opens, the water is pushed out by the air in the water storage tank and the water is led out from the middle water outlet, and temporarily (from when the middle water outlet is opened until the pump starts driving). ), The pressure in the water storage tank drops below 100 KPa. And when the pressure in the water storage tank falls below the pressure suitable for pump-on (that is, when the detected pressure detected by the pressure sensor falls below the pump-on set pressure, or the pressure falls below the on-drive pressure of the pressure switch) The pump is started to drive, and the intermediate water is introduced into the water storage tank, and the intermediate water is led out from the intermediate water outlet through the intermediate water passage and the water storage tank.

一方、微細気泡含有水を形成する加圧タンク内の圧力は、例えば約3kg/cmで空気を水に溶解させており、切り替え弁の介設部分の抵抗などにより約1kg/cmに下がって水貯留タンクに貯留されるが、切り替え弁の介設部分の抵抗等で空気の一部が気泡(白濁)として出てきてから中水通路に設けた前記水貯留タンク内に入り、この結果、水貯留タンク内の空気量は次第に増えていく。そこで、水貯留タンクの圧力が前記のポンプに適した圧力以下になってから予め定められた弁開設定待機時間が経過するまでは空気導入手段を閉状態とし、前記設定時間が経過した以降に前記空気導入手段を開状態として空気を浴槽水に溶融させるようにすることで、水貯留タンク内の空気量が大きくなりすぎて水位が下がりすぎるということがないようにできる。 On the other hand, the pressure in the pressurized tank that forms the water containing fine bubbles is, for example, about 3 kg / cm 2, where air is dissolved in water and drops to about 1 kg / cm 2 due to the resistance of the intervening portion of the switching valve. The water is stored in the water storage tank, but the air enters into the water storage tank provided in the middle water passage after a part of the air comes out as bubbles (white turbidity) due to the resistance of the intervening part of the switching valve. The amount of air in the water storage tank will gradually increase. Therefore, the air introduction means is closed until the predetermined valve opening set waiting time elapses after the pressure of the water storage tank becomes lower than the pressure suitable for the pump, and after the set time has elapsed. By making the air introduction means open and melting the air in the bath water, the amount of air in the water storage tank does not become too large and the water level does not drop too much.

なお、中水導出口が閉じてからも前記ポンプはオンし続けることにより、水貯留タンク内の圧力が上昇していき、前記ポンプオン設定圧力よりも高いポンプオフに適した圧力(例えば100KPa)以上になると(つまり、圧力センサにより検出される検出圧力がポンプオン設定圧力より高いポンプオフ設定圧力以上になったときや、圧力が圧力スイッチのオフ駆動圧以上になったときに)、ポンプをオフすることにより、水貯留タンク内の圧力はポンプオフ設定圧力またはその近傍の圧力に保たれる。   In addition, even if the middle water outlet is closed, the pump continues to be turned on, so that the pressure in the water storage tank rises to a pressure suitable for pumping off (for example, 100 KPa) higher than the pump-on set pressure. (That is, when the detected pressure detected by the pressure sensor is higher than the pump-off set pressure higher than the pump-on set pressure, or when the pressure is higher than the OFF switch pressure of the pressure switch), the pump is turned off. The pressure in the water storage tank is maintained at the pump-off set pressure or a pressure in the vicinity thereof.

さらに、中水通路に水貯留タンクを設けて該水貯留タンクに圧力スイッチを設ける構成において、水貯留タンクの圧力スイッチが予め定められた設定判断時間以内に予め定めた設定回数以上のオンオフ動作が繰り返し行われたときには、水貯留タンク内の空気量が少なくなっていることにより、水貯留タンク内の圧力が安定せずに圧力スイッチのオンオフ動作が頻繁に行われていると考えられる。したがって、このようなときには、圧力スイッチの設定回数以上のオンオフ動作の直後に、加圧溶融手段が空気導入手段を開状態として空気を浴槽水に溶融させることにより、水貯留タンク内の空気量を増やして空気量を安定させ(水貯留タンク内に空気の層を必ず一定量設け)、水貯留タンク内の圧力を安定化させて圧力スイッチのオンオフ動作の繰り返しが長く続くことを避けることができる。   Further, in the configuration in which the water storage tank is provided in the middle water passage and the pressure switch is provided in the water storage tank, the ON / OFF operation of the water storage tank is performed more than a predetermined number of times within a predetermined setting judgment time. When repeatedly performed, it is considered that the pressure switch is frequently turned on and off because the pressure in the water storage tank is not stabilized because the amount of air in the water storage tank is small. Therefore, in such a case, immediately after the ON / OFF operation more than the set number of times of the pressure switch, the pressure melting means opens the air introducing means to melt the air into the bath water, thereby reducing the amount of air in the water storage tank. Increase the air volume to stabilize (there is always a fixed layer of air in the water storage tank), stabilize the pressure in the water storage tank, and avoid repeated on / off operation of the pressure switch for a long time .

さらに、浴槽水の温度が高いと、その浴槽水への空気の溶解度が低く、その状態で水が、浴槽水より温度が低いタンク(加圧容器のタンクや水貯留タンク)に貯留されると、水がタンク内で冷えて空気の溶解度が高くなるときに、タンク内にあった空気が水に溶けてタンク内の空気量が少なくなる。そのため、浴槽水の温度を検出する風呂温度検出手段の検出温度が予め定めた設定温度以上の時には、ポンプの駆動直後に空気導入手段を開状態として空気を浴槽水に溶融させることにより、タンク内の空気量を増やして空気量を安定させ、加圧容器内の圧力や水貯留タンク内の圧力を安定させることができる。   Furthermore, if the temperature of the bath water is high, the solubility of the air in the bath water is low, and water is stored in a tank (pressure tank or water storage tank) having a lower temperature than the bath water in that state. When the water cools in the tank and the solubility of the air increases, the air in the tank dissolves in the water and the amount of air in the tank decreases. Therefore, when the detection temperature of the bath temperature detection means for detecting the temperature of the bath water is equal to or higher than a preset temperature, the air introduction means is opened immediately after the pump is driven to melt the air in the bath water. The air amount can be increased to stabilize the air amount, and the pressure in the pressurized container and the pressure in the water storage tank can be stabilized.

さらに、循環路に循環水を加熱する熱交換器を介設し、浴槽水を加熱して循環する追い焚き循環路を形成することにより、浴槽水の加熱追い焚きも可能な風呂システムを、簡単な構成で構築することができる。   Furthermore, by installing a heat exchanger that heats the circulating water in the circulation path and forming a recirculation circuit that heats and circulates the bath water, a bath system that can reheat the bath water easily It can be constructed with a simple configuration.

さらに、オゾン含有水は空気含有水よりもさらに汚れ落とし効果が高いため、オゾンを収容するオゾン収容部を空気導入手段に接続して空気導入手段からオゾンを導入してオゾン含有水を作成し、中水として例えば靴洗浄等に再利用すれば、前記各効果に加え、さらにより一層汚れを落とす効果を高めることができる。   Furthermore, since ozone-containing water has a higher dirt removing effect than air-containing water, an ozone containing portion that contains ozone is connected to the air introducing means to introduce ozone from the air introducing means to create ozone-containing water, If reused as middle water, for example, for shoe washing, in addition to the above effects, the effect of further removing dirt can be further enhanced.

以下、本発明の実施の形態を図面に基づき説明する。   Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

図1には、本発明に係る風呂システムの第1実施例のシステム構成が示されている。同図に示すように、この風呂システムにおいて、浴槽1には、管路2a〜2dを備えた循環路2が接続されており、この循環路2には、浴槽水(浴槽湯水)の水位を検出する浴槽水位検出手段(水位センサ)3と、浴槽水の温度を検出する風呂温度検出手段としての風呂温度センサ27と、浴槽水を循環させる機能を備えたポンプ4とが設けられている。ポンプ4の吐出側の循環路2(管路2b)には、水を貯留するタンク5cを備えた加圧容器5の水導入部5aが接続されており、加圧容器5の水導出部5b側の循環路2(管路2c)には電磁弁(開閉弁)15が介設されると共に、切り替え弁6を介して水を中水導出口18(18a,18b)に導く中水通路19が接続されている。切り替え弁6には、前記管路2dも接続されている。   FIG. 1 shows a system configuration of a first embodiment of a bath system according to the present invention. As shown in the figure, in this bath system, a tub 1 is connected to a circulation path 2 having pipe lines 2a to 2d, and the circulation path 2 has a water level of bathtub water (tub water). A bathtub water level detecting means (water level sensor) 3 for detecting, a bath temperature sensor 27 as a bath temperature detecting means for detecting the temperature of the bathtub water, and a pump 4 having a function of circulating the bathtub water are provided. A water introduction part 5a of a pressurized container 5 having a tank 5c for storing water is connected to the circulation path 2 (pipe 2b) on the discharge side of the pump 4, and a water outlet part 5b of the pressurized container 5 is connected. An electromagnetic valve (open / close valve) 15 is interposed in the circulation path 2 (pipe 2 c) on the side, and a middle water passage 19 that guides water to the middle water outlet 18 (18 a, 18 b) via the switching valve 6. Is connected. The pipe 2d is also connected to the switching valve 6.

加圧容器5には、加圧容器5の水導入部5aから導入される水に溶融させるための空気を導入する空気導入手段(例えば空気導入弁)16と、タンク5c内の圧力を検出する圧力センサ17とが設けられている。また、ポンプ4は、浴槽水を加圧しながら循環させる機能を有するカスケードポンプにより形成されており、空気導入手段16により導入された空気が、ポンプ4により加圧容器5に導入される水に加圧溶融されて空気加圧溶融水として導出される構成を有している。このように、本実施例では、一つのポンプ4によって空気溶融と水循環とを行うことができるため、システム構成や制御構成を簡略化することができ、風呂システムの小型化を図ることができる。   The pressure vessel 5 detects an air introduction means (for example, an air introduction valve) 16 that introduces air for melting water introduced from the water introduction portion 5a of the pressure vessel 5 and the pressure in the tank 5c. A pressure sensor 17 is provided. The pump 4 is formed by a cascade pump having a function of circulating bath water while being pressurized, and the air introduced by the air introduction means 16 is added to the water introduced into the pressurized container 5 by the pump 4. It has a configuration that is melted under pressure and led out as air-pressure melted water. As described above, in this embodiment, since the single pump 4 can perform air melting and water circulation, the system configuration and the control configuration can be simplified, and the bath system can be downsized.

なお、ポンプ4は、カスケードポンプにより形成するとは限らず、渦巻式ポンプ等の適宜のポンプにより形成されるものであるが、ポンプ4をカスケードポンプにより形成すると、空気を含む水をポンプ4に吸い込んで加圧してポンプ4から導出させることができるので、空気導入手段16を加圧容器5に設ける代わりに、図1(a)の破線Bに示すような、ポンプ4の吸い込み側の管路2aに位置に設けることもできる。   The pump 4 is not necessarily formed by a cascade pump, but is formed by an appropriate pump such as a spiral pump. However, when the pump 4 is formed by a cascade pump, water containing air is sucked into the pump 4. Therefore, instead of providing the air introduction means 16 in the pressurized container 5, the pipe 2a on the suction side of the pump 4 as shown by the broken line B in FIG. It can also be provided at the position.

A valve 29a formed by an electromagnetic valve is provided on the branch passage 19a side, and a valve 29b formed by an electromagnetic valve is provided on the branch passage 19b side. Is provided. The middle water outlet 18a on the front end side of the branch passage 19a is a faucet in the toilet that also cleans shoes such as sneakers, and the middle water outlet 18b on the front end side of the branch passage 19b is a toilet washing tank. 49 is a water inlet to 49. A water supply passage 30 is also connected to the middle water outlet 18a through an electromagnetic valve 31a, and the water supply passage 30 is connected to a toilet washing tank 49 through an electromagnetic valve 31b.

中水導出口18aの配設部近傍である洗面所の壁面には、中水利用指令と中水利用停止指令の指令発生を行うための操作手段としてのスイッチ28が設けられており、このスイッチ28は、図2に示されるように、リモコン装置48に設けられている。また、中水導出口18bの配設部近傍であるトイレの壁面には、中水利用指令の指令発生を行うための操作手段としてのスイッチ26が設けられており、このスイッチ26は、図2に示されるように、リモコン装置46に設けられている。   A switch 28 is provided on the wall surface of the washroom near the arrangement portion of the middle water outlet 18a as an operation means for issuing a middle water usage command and a middle water usage stop command. 28 is provided in the remote control device 48 as shown in FIG. Further, a switch 26 is provided on the wall surface of the toilet in the vicinity of the arrangement portion of the middle water outlet 18b as an operation means for generating a middle water use command. As shown in FIG. 4, the remote controller 46 is provided.

また、図1に示すように、中水通路19には中水白濁用微細気泡噴出装置50が介設されており、中水白濁用微細気泡噴出装置50は、加圧容器5から導出された加圧溶融水が切り替え弁6を介して中水通路19に導入されたときに、空気加圧溶融水を減圧して噴出させることにより中水通路19内の水に微細気泡を噴出させる機能を有している。この中水白濁用微細気泡噴出装置50と、切り替え弁6、電磁弁15、加圧容器5、風呂温度センサ27、浴槽水位検出手段3、ポンプ4を有して、微細気泡発生機能等を有する多機能ユニット33が形成されており、多機能ユニット33は、屋外、室内、浴槽脇などの適宜の場所に設置される。この多機能ユニット33内には、図2に示されるような制御装置37が設けられている。   Further, as shown in FIG. 1, a medium water cloudy fine bubble jetting device 50 is interposed in the middle water passage 19, and the medium water cloudy fine bubble jetting device 50 is led out from the pressurized container 5. When pressurized molten water is introduced into the middle water passage 19 via the switching valve 6, a function of ejecting fine bubbles into the water in the middle water passage 19 by depressurizing and ejecting the air pressurized molten water. Have. The medium water cloudiness fine bubble jetting device 50, the switching valve 6, the electromagnetic valve 15, the pressurized container 5, the bath temperature sensor 27, the bath water level detecting means 3, and the pump 4 have a fine bubble generating function and the like. A multi-function unit 33 is formed, and the multi-function unit 33 is installed in an appropriate place such as outdoors, indoors, or near a bathtub. A control device 37 as shown in FIG. 2 is provided in the multi-function unit 33.

また、図1に示すように、前記浴槽1への循環路2の接続部には浴槽白濁用微細気泡噴出装置51が設けられており、浴槽白濁用微細気泡噴出装置51は、加圧容器5から導出された空気加圧溶融水を減圧して噴出させることにより浴槽1内の水に微細気泡を噴出させる機能を有している。   Moreover, as shown in FIG. 1, the connection part of the circulation path 2 to the said bathtub 1 is provided with the fine bubble ejection apparatus 51 for bathtub cloudiness, and the fine bubble ejection apparatus 51 for bathtub cloudiness is the pressurization container 5. It has a function of ejecting fine bubbles into the water in the bathtub 1 by depressurizing and ejecting the air pressurized molten water derived from the water.

図2には、本実施例の風呂システムの制御構成がブロック図により示されている。同図に示すように、本実施例では、多機能ユニット33の制御装置37内に、微細気泡含有中水導出制御手段21と、空気導入弁開閉制御手段20と、浴槽湯水美白運転制御手段22とが設けられており、制御装置37には、トイレ内配置のリモコン装置46と洗面所内配置のリモコン装置48とが、無線あるいは有線により接続されている。   FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing the control configuration of the bath system of this embodiment. As shown in the figure, in this embodiment, in the control device 37 of the multi-function unit 33, the fine bubble-containing middle water derivation control means 21, the air introduction valve opening / closing control means 20, and the bathtub hot water whitening operation control means 22 are provided. The remote control device 46 disposed in the toilet and the remote control device 48 disposed in the washroom are connected to the control device 37 wirelessly or by wire.

微細気泡含有中水導出制御手段21は、トイレ内の中水利用のスイッチ26がオンされたり、洗面所内の中水利用のスイッチ28がオンされたりして、中水利用指令が加えられたときに、浴槽水位検出手段3により検出される検出水位を取り込み、この検出水位が予め定められる中水利用設定水位以上あったときには、図1(a)の太線矢印に示すような経路を通しての、中水導出口18への中水導出を行う。   When the medium water use switch 26 in the toilet is turned on or the medium water use switch 28 is turned on in the toilet, a medium water use instruction is added. When the detected water level detected by the bathtub water level detecting means 3 is taken in and the detected water level is equal to or higher than a predetermined medium water use set water level, the medium level through the path shown by the thick line arrow in FIG. The middle water is discharged to the water outlet 18.

具体的には、微細気泡含有中水導出制御手段21は、中水導出動作の開始時(スイッチ26,28からの中水利用指令の受信時)に、浴槽水位検出手段3の検出水位を確認し、この検出水位が中水利用設定水位以上のときには、電磁弁15の開動作と切り替え弁6の中水通路19側への切り替え動作と、スイッチ28のオン動作に対応させた弁29aの開動作やスイッチ26のオン動作に対応させた弁29bの開動作を行う。   Specifically, the microbubble-containing middle water derivation control means 21 confirms the detected water level of the bathtub water level detection means 3 at the start of the middle water derivation operation (when the middle water use command is received from the switches 26 and 28). When the detected water level is equal to or higher than the set water utilization level, the opening of the valve 29a corresponding to the opening operation of the electromagnetic valve 15, the switching operation to the middle water passage 19 side of the switching valve 6, and the ON operation of the switch 28 is performed. An opening operation of the valve 29b corresponding to the operation and the ON operation of the switch 26 is performed.

その後、圧力センサ17の検出圧力を取り込み、その値が予め定められたポンプオン設定圧力以下に下がったときにポンプ4の駆動を開始して浴槽1の水を加圧容器5に導入する。また、空気導入弁開閉制御手段20に指令を加えて空気導入弁開閉制御手段20により空気導入手段(空気導入弁)16を開状態とし、加圧容器5に導入される空気を水に加圧溶融して空気加圧溶融水を形成し、加圧容器5から導出される空気加圧溶融水を中水通路19に導入する。そして、この空気加圧溶融水を中水白濁用微細気泡噴出装置50に通すことにより中水通路19内で減圧して(加圧状態から常圧に戻して)微細気泡を噴出させ、該微細気泡の含有水を中水導出口18から導出する。   Thereafter, the detected pressure of the pressure sensor 17 is taken in, and when the value falls below a predetermined pump-on set pressure, the pump 4 is started to drive the water in the bathtub 1 into the pressurized container 5. Further, a command is given to the air introduction valve opening / closing control means 20, the air introduction valve opening / closing control means 20 opens the air introduction means (air introduction valve) 16, and the air introduced into the pressurized container 5 is pressurized to water. It melts to form air pressurized molten water, and air pressurized molten water led out from the pressurized container 5 is introduced into the middle water passage 19. Then, this air-pressurized molten water is passed through the medium-water white turbid microbubble ejection device 50 to reduce the pressure in the middle-water passage 19 (return to the normal pressure from the pressurized state), and eject the microbubbles. Water containing bubbles is led out from the middle water outlet 18.

また、微細気泡含有中水導出制御手段21は、スイッチ26やスイッチ28がオフされて、中水利用停止指令が加えられたときには、弁29aや弁29bを閉じ、ポンプ4を停止させて前記微細気泡の含有水の中水導出口18からの導出を停止し、電磁弁15を閉じる。なお、トイレに設けられているリモコン装置46においては、スイッチ26のオン操作時から予め定められている中水導出設定時間(トイレの洗浄タンク内の貯留水位が適正水位になるまでの時間)が経過してその分の水がトイレの洗浄タンク内に導入されたときに自動的にオフし、このオフ時に中水利用停止指令の指令発生が行われるようになっているが、スイッチ28も、オン操作後に予め定められている中水導出設定時間経過したときに自動的にオフされるように形成し、このオフ時に中水利用停止指令の指令発生が行われるようにしてもよい。また、微細気泡含有中水導出制御手段21は、中水導出口18からの中水導出停止時(電磁弁15の閉時)に、切り替え弁6の循環路2d側への切り替え動作を行うようにしてもよい。   In addition, when the switch 26 and the switch 28 are turned off and a command to stop the use of medium water is applied, the minute bubble-containing middle water derivation control means 21 closes the valve 29a and the valve 29b and stops the pump 4 to stop the minute water. The derivation of the bubble-containing water from the medium water outlet 18 is stopped, and the solenoid valve 15 is closed. In addition, in the remote control device 46 provided in the toilet, a predetermined setting time for deriving the intermediate water from when the switch 26 is turned on (time until the stored water level in the cleaning tank of the toilet becomes an appropriate water level) is set. When the amount of water that has passed has been introduced into the washing tank of the toilet, it is automatically turned off. It may be configured so that it is automatically turned off when a predetermined set-up time for derivation of middle water elapses after the on operation, and a command to stop using the middle water is issued at the time of turning off. Further, the microbubble-containing middle water derivation control means 21 performs the switching operation of the switching valve 6 to the circulation path 2d side when the middle water derivation from the middle water outlet 18 is stopped (when the electromagnetic valve 15 is closed). It may be.

浴槽湯水美白運転制御手段22は、制御装置37に信号接続されている浴室配置の風呂リモコン装置46の美白スイッチ(微細気泡発生スイッチ)42がオン操作されたときに、電磁弁15の開動作と切り替え弁6の管路2d側への切り替え動作を行い、かつ、ポンプ4の駆動を行い、さらに、空気導入弁開閉制御手段20に指令を加えて空気導入手段16を適宜開閉し、前記と同様に空気加圧溶融水を形成する。そして、その空気加圧溶融水を、図1(b)の太線矢印に示すように、管路2dに導入し、空気加圧溶融水を浴槽白濁用微細気泡噴出装置51に通すことにより浴槽1内で減圧して(加圧状態から常圧に戻して)微細気泡を噴出する。また、これらの動作を行いながら、浴槽1の水を循環路2の管路2a、2b、2c、2dに通して循環させる。   The bathtub hot water whitening operation control means 22 is configured to open the solenoid valve 15 when the whitening switch (fine bubble generation switch) 42 of the bath remote control device 46 connected in signal to the control device 37 is turned on. The switching valve 6 is switched to the pipe line 2d side, the pump 4 is driven, the air introduction valve opening / closing control means 20 is commanded to open and close the air introduction means 16 as appropriate, and the same as described above. To form air pressurized molten water. And the air pressurization molten water is introduce | transduced into the pipe line 2d, as shown to the thick line arrow of FIG.1 (b), and the bathtub 1 is passed through the microbubble ejection apparatus 51 for bathtub cloudiness. The pressure is reduced inside (returned from the pressurized state to normal pressure) and fine bubbles are ejected. Moreover, the water of the bathtub 1 is circulated through the pipe lines 2a, 2b, 2c, and 2d of the circulation path 2 while performing these operations.

なお、美白スイッチ42の操作は、通常、利用者が入浴中に行われるので、浴槽水の水位は入浴に適した水位となっているはずであるが、浴槽水の水が管路2aの接続部よりも下の水位しかないときには、浴槽水の循環路2を通しての循環は行われない。また、浴槽湯水美白運転制御手段22は、美白スイッチ42がオフ操作されたときには、ポンプ4を停止させて微細気泡の浴槽1内への噴出を停止する。   Since the whitening switch 42 is normally operated while the user is bathing, the water level of the bath water should be suitable for bathing, but the water of the bath water is connected to the pipe 2a. When there is only a water level below the section, the circulation of the bathtub water through the circulation path 2 is not performed. Moreover, when the whitening switch 42 is turned off, the bathtub hot water whitening operation control means 22 stops the pump 4 and stops the ejection of fine bubbles into the bathtub 1.

また、前記のような微細気泡含有水の形成動作は、例えば、空気導入手段16を適宜のタイミングで開き、ポンプ4を適宜のタイミングで駆動させることにより行われるものであるが、加圧容器5による浴槽水の形成方法は様々であり、特に限定されるものでなく、適宜設定されるものである。ここでは、その詳細説明は省略する。   In addition, the microbubble-containing water formation operation as described above is performed, for example, by opening the air introduction means 16 at an appropriate timing and driving the pump 4 at an appropriate timing. There are various methods for forming bathtub water, and the method is not particularly limited and is appropriately set. Detailed description thereof is omitted here.

本実施例は以上のように構成されており、本実施例における中水利用動作例について、図3のフローチャートおよび図1、図2に基づいて説明する。まず、図3のステップS1で、例えばトイレの中水利用のスイッチ26がオンされると、このスイッチオン信号が中水利用指令として空気溶融中水導出制御手段21に加えられ、空気溶融中水導出制御手段21は、ステップS2で、浴槽水位検出手段3の検出信号を取り込み、浴槽水位が中水利用設定水位以上あるかどうかを確認する。そして、浴槽水位が中水利用設定水位以上あったときにはステップS3に進み、浴槽水位が中水利用設定水位より少なかったときにはステップS2aで浴槽水の中水利用をオフにする。なお、この中水利用がオフのときには、上水側の電磁弁31bを開いて上水の導出を行うようにする。   The present embodiment is configured as described above, and an example of the operation of using intermediate water in the present embodiment will be described based on the flowchart of FIG. 3 and FIGS. 1 and 2. First, in step S1 in FIG. 3, for example, when the switch 26 for using the middle water in the toilet is turned on, this switch-on signal is applied to the air-melting middle water derivation control means 21 as a middle-water utilization command. In step S2, the derivation control means 21 takes in the detection signal of the bathtub water level detection means 3 and confirms whether the bathtub water level is equal to or higher than the medium water use set water level. Then, when the bathtub water level is equal to or higher than the medium water utilization set water level, the process proceeds to step S3, and when the bathtub water level is less than the medium water utilization set water level, the medium water utilization of the bathtub water is turned off at step S2a. When the use of the intermediate water is off, the water valve is opened to open the water valve 31b.

ステップS3では、微細気泡含有中水導出制御手段21の制御により、弁29bの開動作(上水側の電磁弁31bは閉)と、切り替え弁6の中水通路19側への切り替えと、電磁弁15の開動作とが行われて、中水通路19を通して中水導出口18bから浴槽水(中水)の導出が行われる。つまり、弁29bと電磁弁15を開いて、切り替え弁6を中水通路19側に切り替えると、加圧容器5内の空気によって加圧容器5内の浴槽水が押されて、その浴槽水が管路2cを通って中水通路19に導入される。   In step S 3, the valve 29 b is opened (the water-side electromagnetic valve 31 b is closed), the switching valve 6 is switched to the middle water passage 19 side, The valve 15 is opened, and bath water (middle water) is led out from the middle water outlet port 18b through the middle water passage 19. That is, when the valve 29b and the electromagnetic valve 15 are opened and the switching valve 6 is switched to the middle water passage 19 side, the bathtub water in the pressurized container 5 is pushed by the air in the pressurized container 5, and the bathtub water is The water is introduced into the middle water passage 19 through the pipe 2c.

そうすると、加圧容器5内の圧力が下がる(通常は、直ぐに圧力が下がる)ので、微細気泡含有中水導出制御手段21によって取り込まれる圧力センサ17の検出圧力を、ステップS4で、予め定められたポンプオン設定圧力と比較すると、圧力センサ17の検出圧力がポンプオン設定圧力以下となり、ステップS5に進んでポンプ4を駆動開始(ON;オン)する。なお、このとき、微細気泡含有中水導出制御手段21は、空気導入弁開閉制御手段20に空気導入手段16の開閉制御指令を加え、空気導入弁開閉制御手段20によって空気導入手段16の開閉動作が適宜のタイミングで行われる。   Then, since the pressure in the pressurized container 5 decreases (usually, the pressure decreases immediately), the detected pressure of the pressure sensor 17 taken in by the fine bubble-containing middle water derivation control means 21 is determined in advance in step S4. Compared with the pump-on set pressure, the pressure detected by the pressure sensor 17 becomes equal to or lower than the pump-on set pressure, and the process proceeds to step S5 to start driving the pump 4 (ON; on). At this time, the microbubble-containing middle water derivation control means 21 applies an opening / closing control command for the air introduction means 16 to the air introduction valve opening / closing control means 20, and the air introduction valve opening / closing control means 20 opens / closes the air introduction means 16. Is performed at an appropriate timing.

この空気導入手段16の開閉動作とポンプ4の駆動とに伴い、加圧容器5によって浴槽水への空気の加圧溶融が行われ、空気加圧溶融水が中水通路19を通るときに中水白濁用微細気泡噴出装置50を通ることによって、ステップS6で、微細気泡が噴出(発生)する。また、この発生した微細気泡の含有中水によって、ステップS7に示すように、中水通路19の配管が洗浄されながら、微細気泡の含有中水が中水導出口18bから導出(吐出)される。そして、ステップS8で、微細気泡含有中水導出制御手段21は、浴槽水位が無いかどうかの判断を行い、浴槽水位が無いと判断されたときには(浴槽1に湯水が無いときには中水導出ができないので)、ステップS8aでポンプ4をオフにし、中水導出動作を終了する。   Along with the opening / closing operation of the air introduction means 16 and the driving of the pump 4, the pressurized container 5 compresses and melts the air into the bath water, and the air pressurized molten water passes through the middle water passage 19. By passing through the water cloudy fine bubble ejection device 50, in step S6, fine bubbles are ejected (generated). Further, as shown in step S7, the generated water containing fine bubbles is discharged (discharged) from the intermediate water outlet 18b while the piping of the intermediate water passage 19 is washed, as shown in step S7. . Then, in step S8, the fine bubble-containing middle water derivation control means 21 determines whether or not there is no bathtub water level. When it is determined that there is no bathtub water level (when there is no hot water in the bathtub 1, middle water cannot be derived). Therefore, in step S8a, the pump 4 is turned off, and the intermediate water deriving operation is terminated.

また、ステップS8で、浴槽水があると判断されたときには、ステップS9に進み、ステップS9で、微細気泡含有中水の中水導出口18bからの吐出時間が予め定められる吐出設定時間(トイレの洗浄タンク内の貯留水位が適正水位になるまでの時間)になったか否かの判断が行われ、前記吐出時間が吐出設定時間に達するまで、ステップS8からステップS9までの動作を繰り返し行う。つまり、浴槽1の湯水が無くなっていないかどうかを監視しながら、浴槽1に湯水があるときには前記吐出設定時間が経過するまで微細気泡含有中水の導出を行う。そして、微細気泡含有中水の吐出時間が吐出設定時間になったら、ステップS10に進む。   If it is determined in step S8 that there is bathtub water, the process proceeds to step S9, and in step S9, the discharge time from the middle water outlet 18b of the medium containing fine bubbles is determined in advance. It is determined whether or not the stored water level in the cleaning tank has reached a proper water level), and the operations from step S8 to step S9 are repeated until the discharge time reaches the discharge set time. That is, while monitoring whether the bathtub 1 has run out of hot water or not, when there is hot water in the bathtub 1, the fine bubble-containing middle water is derived until the discharge set time elapses. Then, when the discharge time of the water containing fine bubbles becomes the discharge set time, the process proceeds to step S10.

なお、ステップS9で、微細気泡含有中水の中水導出口18bからの吐出時間が予め定められる吐出設定時間になったか否かの判断を行う代わりに、例えば図1の破線Dに示すような位置に流量センサを設けて、中水導出口18bから導出される中水の導出流量を検出し、その検出流量が予め定められる設定流量に達するまでは、ステップS8からステップS9までの動作を繰り返し行って、浴槽1の湯水が無くなっていないかどうかを監視しながら、浴槽1に湯水があるときには流量センサの検出流量が前記設定流量に達するまで微細気泡含有中水の導出を行うようにしてもよい。この場合も、流量センサの検出流量が前記設定流量に達したら、ステップS10に進む。   In step S9, instead of determining whether or not the discharge time from the middle water outlet 18b of the minute bubble-containing middle water has reached a predetermined discharge setting time, for example, as shown by a broken line D in FIG. A flow rate sensor is provided at the position to detect the flow rate of the middle water led out from the middle water outlet 18b, and the operations from step S8 to step S9 are repeated until the detected flow rate reaches a predetermined set flow rate. While monitoring whether the hot water in the bathtub 1 has run out or not, if there is hot water in the bathtub 1, the water contained in the fine bubbles may be led out until the detected flow rate of the flow sensor reaches the set flow rate. Good. Also in this case, when the detected flow rate of the flow sensor reaches the set flow rate, the process proceeds to step S10.

ステップS10では、スイッチ26が、ステップS9での吐出時間経過後または吐出流量が設定流量に達したときに、オフするので、微細気泡含有中水導出制御手段21は、ステップS11でポンプ4を停止する(電磁弁15も閉じる)。 In step S10, the switch 26 is turned off after the discharge time in step S9 elapses or when the discharge flow rate reaches the set flow rate, so the fine bubble-containing middle water derivation control means 21 stops the pump 4 in step S11. (The solenoid valve 15 is also closed).

また、リモコン48のスイッチ28がオンされたときには、スイッチ26のオンに伴い弁29bが開かれる代わりに、スイッチ28のオンに伴って弁29aが開かれる以外は、ステップS1〜ステップS7までの動作が同様に行われ、ステップS8で浴槽1の湯水が無くなったかどうかの監視を行いながら中水導出が行われ、ステップS10で、スイッチ28がオフされたときには、ステップS11でポンプ4が停止され、弁29aが閉じられて中水導出口18aからの中水導出が停止される。なお、ステップS8で浴槽1の湯水が無くなったと判断されたときには、ステップS8aでポンプ4がオフされて中水導出が停止される。また、スイッチ28を、オン操作後に予め定められている中水導出設定時間経過後に自動的にオフされるように形成する場合は、トイレのスイッチ26の操作時と同様に、ステップS9の動作も行われる。   When the switch 28 of the remote control 48 is turned on, the operation from step S1 to step S7 is performed except that the valve 29a is opened when the switch 28 is turned on instead of opening the valve 29b when the switch 26 is turned on. In step S8, the middle water is discharged while monitoring whether or not the hot water in the bathtub 1 has run out. When the switch 28 is turned off in step S10, the pump 4 is stopped in step S11. The valve 29a is closed, and the discharge of the intermediate water from the intermediate water outlet 18a is stopped. When it is determined in step S8 that the hot water in the bathtub 1 has run out, the pump 4 is turned off in step S8a and the middle water derivation is stopped. In addition, when the switch 28 is formed so as to be automatically turned off after a predetermined middle water derivation set time elapses after the on operation, the operation in step S9 is performed in the same manner as when the toilet switch 26 is operated. Done.

図4、図5には、本発明に係る風呂システムの第2実施例のシステム構成が示されており、図6には、その制御構成がブロック図により示されている。なお、これらの図において、前記第1実施例と同一名称部分には同一符号を付し、その重複説明は省略または簡略化する。   4 and 5 show the system configuration of a second embodiment of the bath system according to the present invention, and FIG. 6 shows the control configuration in a block diagram. In these drawings, parts having the same names as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and redundant description thereof is omitted or simplified.

第2実施例が前記第1実施例と異なる特徴的なことは、中水導出路19に、浴槽水の中水を貯留する水貯留タンク45を介設したことであり、第2実施例では、この水貯留タンク45の水導出側に中水白濁用微細気泡噴出装置50を設けている。また、第2実施例では、加圧容器5に圧力センサ17を設けずに、水貯留タンク45に圧力センサ17を設けている。   The second embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that the water storage tank 45 for storing the intermediate water of the bathtub water is interposed in the intermediate water outlet path 19. In the second embodiment, In addition, a fine water jet device 50 for white water cloudiness is provided on the water outlet side of the water storage tank 45. In the second embodiment, the pressure sensor 17 is provided in the water storage tank 45 without providing the pressure sensor 17 in the pressurized container 5.

また、第2実施例では、電磁弁15を中水通路19の入口側(水貯留タンク45の水導入側)に設けており、この電磁弁15は、弁29a,29bの閉状態のときに、水貯留タンク45内の圧力を維持する役割を果たしている。さらに、第2実施例では、第1実施例において設けられていたリモコン装置46,48やそのスイッチ26,28が省略され、弁29a,29bは電磁弁により形成されずに、中水導出口18aの蛇口近傍に設けられている手動の栓が開方向に操作されたときに弁29aが開き、手動の栓が閉方向に操作されたときに弁29aが閉じる弁となっており、また、中水導出口18b側は、トイレの水洗用操作レバーが操作されると弁29bが開き、トイレ水洗用レバーの操作後に予め定められた設定時間経過後(あるいは、トイレの水洗用タンク内を満たす水量の中水が導出されたとき)に自動的に閉じるように構成されている。   In the second embodiment, the electromagnetic valve 15 is provided on the inlet side of the middle water passage 19 (the water introduction side of the water storage tank 45), and this electromagnetic valve 15 is in the closed state of the valves 29a and 29b. It plays the role of maintaining the pressure in the water storage tank 45. Further, in the second embodiment, the remote control devices 46 and 48 and the switches 26 and 28 provided in the first embodiment are omitted, and the valves 29a and 29b are not formed by electromagnetic valves, but the intermediate water outlet 18a. The valve 29a is opened when a manual plug provided in the vicinity of the faucet is operated in the opening direction, and the valve 29a is closed when the manual plug is operated in the closing direction. On the water outlet 18b side, when the toilet flushing lever is operated, the valve 29b is opened, and a predetermined amount of time has passed after the toilet flushing lever is operated (or the amount of water filling the toilet flushing tank). It is configured to close automatically when the water is discharged.

第2実施例においても、その制御構成は、図6に示されるように、第1実施例とほぼ同様であるが、第2実施例においては、トイレ洗浄レバーが操作されて弁29bが開いたときや、中水導出口18a近傍の手動の栓が開かれて、それにより弁29aが開いたときに、水貯留タンク45内の空気によって水貯留タンク45内の浴槽水が押されて水貯留タンク45の水導出側に流れ、水貯留タンク45に設けられている圧力センサ17の検出圧力が低下するので、微細気泡含有中水導出制御手段21は、この圧力センサ17の検出圧力の低下を検知して、それにより弁29aや弁29bが開かれたことを検知する。そして、微細気泡含有中水導出制御手段21は、弁29a,29bの開動作時に、浴槽水位検出手段3の検出水位が中水利用設定水位以上であることを確認し、圧力センサ17の検出圧力が予め定めたポンプオン設定圧力以下になったらポンプ4の駆動を開始する。   In the second embodiment, the control configuration is substantially the same as that of the first embodiment as shown in FIG. 6, but in the second embodiment, the toilet cleaning lever is operated and the valve 29b is opened. When the manual stopper in the vicinity of the middle water outlet 18a is opened and the valve 29a is thereby opened, the water in the water storage tank 45 is pushed by the air in the water storage tank 45 to store the water. Since the pressure detected by the pressure sensor 17 provided in the water storage tank 45 flows to the water outlet side of the tank 45, the fine bubble-containing middle water outlet control means 21 reduces the detected pressure of the pressure sensor 17. Detecting that the valve 29a and the valve 29b have been opened. And the fine bubble containing middle water derivation | leading-out control means 21 confirms that the detection water level of the bathtub water level detection means 3 is more than a middle water utilization setting water level at the time of opening operation of valve 29a, 29b, and the detection pressure of the pressure sensor 17 When the pressure becomes equal to or lower than a predetermined pump-on set pressure, the driving of the pump 4 is started.

また、微細気泡含有中水導出制御手段21は、中水導出口18a近傍の手動の栓が閉じられてそれにより弁29aが閉じてから、または、トイレ水洗用レバーの操作後に予め定められた設定時間経過後(あるいは、トイレの水洗用タンク内を満たす水量の中水が導出されたとき)に弁29bが自動的に閉じられてから、水貯留タンク45に設けられている圧力センサ17の検出圧力が予め定めたポンプオフ設定圧力以上になったときに、ポンプ4の駆動を停止する。   Further, the fine bubble-containing middle water outlet control means 21 is set in advance after the manual stopper near the middle water outlet 18a is closed and thereby the valve 29a is closed, or after the operation of the toilet flush lever. Detection of the pressure sensor 17 provided in the water storage tank 45 after the valve 29b is automatically closed after a lapse of time (or when the amount of water filling the toilet flush tank is derived). When the pressure becomes equal to or higher than a predetermined pump-off set pressure, the driving of the pump 4 is stopped.

さらに、第2実施例では、空気導入手段16の開閉制御を行う空気導入弁開閉制御手段20は、風呂温度検出手段27の検出温度が予め定めた設定温度以上の時には、ポンプ4の駆動直後に空気導入手段16を開状態として空気を浴槽水に溶融させるが、風呂温度検出手段27の検出温度が予め定めた設定温度未満の時には、水貯留タンク45の圧力センサ17の検出圧力が設定圧力以下になってポンプ4が駆動開始してから予め定められた弁開設定待機時間が経過するまでは、空気導入手段(空気導入手段)16を閉状態とし、前記弁開設定待機時間が経過した以降に、空気導入手段16を開状態として空気を浴槽水に溶融させる。   Further, in the second embodiment, the air introduction valve opening / closing control means 20 for controlling the opening / closing of the air introduction means 16 immediately after the pump 4 is driven when the temperature detected by the bath temperature detection means 27 is equal to or higher than a preset temperature. The air introduction means 16 is opened to melt the air in the bath water. When the detected temperature of the bath temperature detecting means 27 is lower than a preset temperature, the detected pressure of the pressure sensor 17 of the water storage tank 45 is equal to or lower than the set pressure. After the start of driving of the pump 4 until the predetermined valve opening set waiting time elapses, the air introducing means (air introducing means) 16 is closed and the valve opening setting waiting time has elapsed. Then, the air introduction means 16 is opened to melt the air in the bath water.

第2実施例は、以上のように構成されており、第2実施例における中水利用動作例について、図7のフローチャートおよび図4〜図6に基づいて説明する。図7のステップS1で、中水導出口18a側の栓が開いたりトイレ洗浄用レバーが操作されたりして弁29a,29bが開くと(この開動作が、圧力センサ17の検出圧力に基づいて空気溶融中水導出制御手段21により検知されると)、空気溶融中水導出制御手段21は、ステップS2で、浴槽水位検出手段3の検出信号を取り込み、浴槽水位が中水利用設定水位以上あるかどうかを確認する。そして、浴槽水位が中水利用設定水位以上あったときにはステップS3に進み、浴槽水位が中水利用設定水位より少なかったときにはステップS2aで浴槽水の中水利用をオフにする。   The second embodiment is configured as described above, and an example of the operation of using intermediate water in the second embodiment will be described based on the flowchart of FIG. 7 and FIGS. 4 to 6. In step S1 of FIG. 7, when the plug on the side of the middle water outlet 18a is opened or the toilet washing lever is operated to open the valves 29a and 29b (this opening operation is based on the pressure detected by the pressure sensor 17). When detected by the air-melting middle water derivation control means 21, the air-melting middle water derivation control means 21 captures the detection signal of the bathtub water level detection means 3 in step S2, and the bathtub water level is equal to or higher than the middle water utilization set water level. Check whether or not. Then, when the bathtub water level is equal to or higher than the medium water utilization set water level, the process proceeds to step S3, and when the bathtub water level is less than the medium water utilization set water level, the medium water utilization of the bathtub water is turned off at step S2a.

ステップS3では、水貯留タンク45内の空気によって水貯留タンク45内の浴槽水が押されて中水通路19を通して中水導出口18bから導出されるが、このとき、微細気泡含有中水導出制御手段21は、切り替え弁6を中水通路19側に切り替え、ステップS4で、水貯留タンク45内の圧力が(圧力センサ17による検出圧力)が予め定められたポンプオン設定圧力以下に下がったら、ステップS5で、電磁弁15を開き、ポンプ4を駆動開始(ON;オン)する。なお、このとき、微細気泡含有中水導出制御手段21は、空気導入弁開閉制御手段20に空気導入手段16の開閉制御指令を加え、空気導入弁開閉制御手段20によって空気導入手段16の開閉動作が適宜のタイミングで行われる。   In step S3, the bathtub water in the water storage tank 45 is pushed by the air in the water storage tank 45 and is led out from the middle water outlet 18b through the middle water passage 19. At this time, the medium water derivation control containing fine bubbles is performed. The means 21 switches the switching valve 6 to the middle water passage 19 side, and when the pressure in the water storage tank 45 (the pressure detected by the pressure sensor 17) falls below a predetermined pump-on set pressure in step S4, the step 21 In S5, the solenoid valve 15 is opened and the pump 4 is started to be driven (ON; turned on). At this time, the microbubble-containing middle water derivation control means 21 applies an opening / closing control command for the air introduction means 16 to the air introduction valve opening / closing control means 20, and the air introduction valve opening / closing control means 20 opens / closes the air introduction means 16. Is performed at an appropriate timing.

そして、空気導入手段16の開閉動作とポンプ4の駆動に伴い、加圧容器5によって浴槽水への空気の加圧溶融が行われ、その空気加圧溶融水が水貯留タンク45内に導入された後に水貯留タンク45から導出され、水貯留タンク45の下流側の中水白濁用微細気泡噴出装置50を通ることによって、ステップS6で、微細気泡が噴出(発生)する。また、この発生した微細気泡の含有中水によって、ステップS7で、中水通路19の配管が洗浄されながら、微細気泡の含有中水が中水導出口18bから導出(吐出)される。   Then, in accordance with the opening / closing operation of the air introduction means 16 and driving of the pump 4, the pressurized container 5 performs pressure melting of the air into the bath water, and the air pressurized molten water is introduced into the water storage tank 45. After that, the fine bubbles are ejected (generated) in step S6 by being led out from the water storage tank 45 and passing through the middle water cloudiness fine bubble ejection device 50 on the downstream side of the water storage tank 45. In addition, in step S7, the generated medium containing fine bubbles is discharged (discharged) from the medium water outlet 18b while the piping of the medium water passage 19 is washed in step S7.

その後、ステップS8〜ステップS10の各動作が第1実施例と同様に(図3のステップS8〜ステップS10と同様に)行われる。   Then, each operation | movement of step S8-step S10 is performed similarly to 1st Example (similar to step S8-step S10 of FIG. 3).

なお、第2実施例でも、ステップS9で、微細気泡含有中水の中水導出口18bからの吐出時間が予め定められる吐出設定時間になったか否かの判断を行う代わりに、例えば図4の破線Dに示すような位置に流量センサを設けて、中水導出口18bから導出される中水の導出流量を検出し、その検出流量が予め定められる設定流量に達したら、ステップS10に進むようにしてもよい。   Also in the second embodiment, instead of determining whether or not the discharge time from the medium water outlet 18b of the fine bubble-containing middle water has reached a predetermined discharge setting time in step S9, for example, FIG. A flow rate sensor is provided at a position as shown by the broken line D to detect the flow rate of the middle water led out from the middle water lead-out port 18b, and when the detected flow rate reaches a predetermined set flow rate, the process proceeds to step S10. Also good.

また、第2実施例では、図7のステップS10の動作後、ステップS11で、圧力センサ17の圧力が予め定められた設定圧力以上になるまで電磁弁15を開いておき、ポンプ4の駆動を継続して行うことにより、水貯留タンク45内の圧力を高め、かつ、図5の太線に示す管路(中水通路19の電磁弁15よりも下流側、分岐通路19a,19bの弁29a,29bの上流側)内の圧力を高める。そして、ステップS11で、圧力センサ17の圧力がポンプオフ設定圧力以上になってから、ステップS12で電磁弁15を閉じ、ポンプ4の駆動を停止する。   In the second embodiment, after the operation of step S10 in FIG. 7, the electromagnetic valve 15 is opened until the pressure of the pressure sensor 17 becomes equal to or higher than a predetermined set pressure in step S11, and the pump 4 is driven. By continuing, the pressure in the water storage tank 45 is increased, and the pipe line shown in the thick line in FIG. 5 (the downstream side of the electromagnetic valve 15 in the middle water passage 19, the valves 29 a in the branch passages 19 a and 19 b, 29b upstream)). In step S11, after the pressure of the pressure sensor 17 becomes equal to or higher than the pump-off set pressure, the electromagnetic valve 15 is closed in step S12, and the driving of the pump 4 is stopped.

なお、電磁弁15を閉じても、中水導出口18等から少しずつ自然に空気が抜けていき、水貯留タンク45内の圧力は自然に圧力が下がるので、例えば微細気泡含有中水導出制御手段21が、例えば設定期間毎に、圧力センサ17の検出圧力を取り込む等して、ステップS12の後にステップS11に戻り、ステップS11、ステップS11aの動作を繰り返し、水貯留タンク45の圧力がポンプオフ設定圧力以上になるようにして、図5の太線に示した前記管路内の圧力を高め、待機しておく。   Even if the electromagnetic valve 15 is closed, air naturally escapes little by little from the middle water outlet 18 and the pressure in the water storage tank 45 naturally decreases. The means 21 takes in the detected pressure of the pressure sensor 17, for example, every set period, and then returns to step S11 after step S12, repeats the operations of step S11 and step S11a, and the pressure of the water storage tank 45 is set to pump off. The pressure in the pipe line shown by the thick line in FIG.

また、第2実施例においては、ステップS1で、洗面所の中水導出口18aの栓が手動で開かれると、弁29aが開かれて、図7のステップS2〜ステップS8またはステップS8aまでの動作が同様に行われ、浴槽1内の湯水の有無が監視されながら、中水導出口18aから水が導出される。また、その後、洗面所の中水導出口18aの栓が手動で閉じられると、弁29bが閉じられ、ステップS11、ステップS12、ステップS11aの各動作が前記と同様に行われる。   Further, in the second embodiment, when the stopper of the wash water outlet 18a is manually opened in step S1, the valve 29a is opened, and steps S2 to S8 or S8a in FIG. The operation is performed in the same manner, and water is led out from the middle water outlet 18a while the presence or absence of hot water in the bathtub 1 is monitored. After that, when the stopper of the wash water outlet 18a is manually closed, the valve 29b is closed, and the operations of Step S11, Step S12, and Step S11a are performed as described above.

図8、図9には、本発明に係る風呂システムの第3実施例のシステム構成が示されており、図10には、その制御構成がブロック図により示されている。なお、これらの図において、前記第1、第2実施例と同一名称部分には同一符号を付し、その重複説明は省略または簡略化する。   8 and 9 show the system configuration of a third embodiment of the bath system according to the present invention, and FIG. 10 shows the control configuration in a block diagram. In these drawings, the same reference numerals are assigned to the same names as those in the first and second embodiments, and the duplicated explanation is omitted or simplified.

第3実施例が前記第1実施例と異なる特徴的なことは、第1実施例に設けた水電磁弁15を省略し、管路2bに逆止弁11を設けたことである。   The third embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that the water electromagnetic valve 15 provided in the first embodiment is omitted and the check valve 11 is provided in the pipe line 2b.

つまり、第3実施例では、第1実施例において中水導出時に行われる電磁弁15の開動作や中水導出停止時に行われる電磁弁15の閉動作を行うことなく、第1実施例とほぼ同様の動作を行うものであり、微細気泡含有中水導出制御手段21は、加圧容器5に設けられている圧力センサ17の検出圧力が予め定められたポンプオン設定圧力以下に下がったときにポンプ4の駆動を行って浴槽1の水を加圧容器5に導入する。そして、空気導入手段16を開状態として加圧容器5に導入される空気を水に加圧溶融して空気加圧溶融水を形成し、加圧容器5から導出される空気加圧溶融水を中水通路19に導入し、第1実施例と同様に、水通路19内で減圧して(加圧状態から常圧に戻して)微細気泡を噴出させ、該微細気泡の含有水を中水導出口18から導出する。   That is, the third embodiment is almost the same as the first embodiment without performing the opening operation of the solenoid valve 15 performed when the middle water is led out or the closing operation of the solenoid valve 15 performed when the middle water is stopped in the first embodiment. The same operation is performed, and the fine-bubble-containing middle water derivation control means 21 is configured to pump when the pressure detected by the pressure sensor 17 provided in the pressure vessel 5 falls below a predetermined pump-on set pressure. 4 is driven to introduce the water in the bathtub 1 into the pressurized container 5. Then, air introduced into the pressurized container 5 is pressurized and melted in water by opening the air introduction means 16 to form air pressurized molten water, and the air pressurized molten water led out from the pressurized container 5 is Like the first embodiment, it is introduced into the middle water passage 19 and decompressed in the water passage 19 (returned to the normal pressure from the pressurized state) to eject fine bubbles, and the water contained in the fine bubbles is discharged into the middle water. Derived from the outlet 18.

また、微細気泡含有中水導出制御手段21は、スイッチ26やスイッチ28がオフされて、中水利用停止指令が加えられたときには、弁29a,29bを閉じ、その後、加圧容器5に設けられている圧力センサ17の検出圧力が予め定めたポンプオフ設定圧力以上になったときに、ポンプ4の駆動を停止する。なお、第3実施例でも、第1実施例と同様に、トイレに設けられているリモコン装置46においては、スイッチ26が自動的にオフする機能が設けられ、このオフ時に中水利用停止指令の指令発生が行われるようになっているが、スイッチ28も、オン操作後に予め定められている中水導出設定時間経過したときに自動的にオフされるように形成し、このオフ時に中水利用停止指令の指令発生が行われるようにしてもよい。また、微細気泡含有中水導出制御手段21は、中水導出口18からの中水導出停止時(電磁弁15の閉時)に、切り替え弁6の循環路2d側への切り替え動作を行うようにしてもよい。   The fine bubble-containing middle water derivation control means 21 closes the valves 29a and 29b when the switch 26 and the switch 28 are turned off and a middle water use stop command is applied, and is then provided in the pressurized container 5. When the detected pressure of the pressure sensor 17 is equal to or higher than a predetermined pump-off set pressure, the driving of the pump 4 is stopped. In the third embodiment, as in the first embodiment, the remote control device 46 provided in the toilet is provided with a function for automatically turning off the switch 26. The command is generated, but the switch 28 is also formed so as to be automatically turned off when a predetermined middle water derivation set time elapses after the on operation, and the middle water is used at the time of turning off. A stop command generation may be performed. Further, the microbubble-containing middle water derivation control means 21 performs the switching operation of the switching valve 6 to the circulation path 2d side when the middle water derivation from the middle water outlet 18 is stopped (when the electromagnetic valve 15 is closed). It may be.

第3実施例は、以上のように構成されており、図11に第3実施例の動作例がフローチャートにより示されている。第3実施例では、図11のステップS1〜ステップS10までの動作が、ステップS3での中水導出時に電磁弁15の開動作を行わずに中水を導出できることを除き、第1実施例とほぼ同様に行われる。そして、第3実施例では、図11のステップS10でスイッチ26やスイッチ28がオフされてから、図11のステップS11で、加圧容器5の圧力センサ17の検出圧力がポンプオフ設定圧力以上かどうかが判断され、圧力センサ17の検出圧力がポンプオフ設定圧力以上のときには、ステップS12に進み、ポンプ4の停止が行われる。また、圧力センサ17の検出圧力がポンプオン設定圧力以下になったときには、ポンプ4の再駆動を行い、加圧容器5および図9の太線に示す管路(管路2bの逆止弁11の配設位置から加圧容器5までの間と、管路2c、中水通路19、分岐通路19a,19bの弁29a,29bの上流側)内の圧力を高める動作が行われる。   The third embodiment is configured as described above, and an operation example of the third embodiment is shown in a flowchart in FIG. In the third embodiment, the operations from step S1 to step S10 in FIG. 11 are the same as those in the first embodiment except that the middle water can be derived without opening the solenoid valve 15 when the middle water is derived in step S3. Almost the same is done. In the third embodiment, after the switch 26 and the switch 28 are turned off in step S10 of FIG. 11, whether or not the detected pressure of the pressure sensor 17 of the pressurized container 5 is equal to or higher than the pump-off set pressure in step S11 of FIG. Is determined, and when the detected pressure of the pressure sensor 17 is equal to or higher than the pump-off set pressure, the process proceeds to step S12 and the pump 4 is stopped. Further, when the detected pressure of the pressure sensor 17 becomes equal to or lower than the pump-on set pressure, the pump 4 is re-driven, and the pressurized container 5 and the pipe line (the check valve 11 of the pipe line 2b arranged as shown in FIG. The operation of increasing the pressure in the space from the installation position to the pressurized container 5 and in the pipe 2c, the middle water passage 19, and the valves 29a and 29b of the branch passages 19a and 19b) is performed.

第3実施例では、第1実施例で設けた電磁弁15を省略しているので、その分だけ部品点数を少なくできるし、電磁弁15の制御構成も不要となり、より簡単な構成で低コスト化を図ることができる。また、逆止弁11を設けて加圧容器5内の圧力を予め定めたポンプオン設定圧力程度の高い状態に常に保つことができる。   In the third embodiment, since the solenoid valve 15 provided in the first embodiment is omitted, the number of parts can be reduced by that amount, and the control configuration of the solenoid valve 15 is not required, and the cost is reduced with a simpler configuration. Can be achieved. In addition, the check valve 11 can be provided to keep the pressure in the pressurized container 5 at a high level that is about a predetermined pump-on set pressure.

なお、本発明は前記実施例に限定されるものでなく、適宜設定されるものである。例えば、風呂システムにおいて、図12(a)に示すように、浴槽1にジェット噴流を噴出させるジェットバスの噴出装置52を設けてもよい。また、図12(b)に示すように、加圧容器5のタンク5cに圧力センサ17を設ける代わりに水位検出電極54を設けてタンク5c内の水位を検出し、この水位検出電極54の検出水位に基づいてポンプ4の駆動開始や停止を行うようにしてもよい。つまり、例えば、水位検出電極54の検出水位が予め定められているポンプオン設定水位以下になったときにポンプ4を駆動開始し、水位検出電極54の検出水位が予め定められているポンプオフ設定水位を超えたときにポンプ4を駆動停止するようにしてもよい。   In addition, this invention is not limited to the said Example, It sets suitably. For example, in a bath system, as shown in FIG. 12A, a jet bath ejection device 52 that jets a jet jet into the bathtub 1 may be provided. Further, as shown in FIG. 12B, instead of providing the pressure sensor 17 in the tank 5c of the pressurized container 5, a water level detection electrode 54 is provided to detect the water level in the tank 5c, and the detection of the water level detection electrode 54 is performed. The driving start and stop of the pump 4 may be performed based on the water level. That is, for example, when the detected water level of the water level detection electrode 54 becomes equal to or lower than a predetermined pump-on set water level, the pump 4 is started to drive, and the detected water level of the water level detection electrode 54 is set to a predetermined pump-off set water level. The pump 4 may be stopped when exceeded.

さらに、風呂システムには、熱源機を接続したり、その熱源機を介して暖房システムや太陽熱利用の集熱器を接続したりしてもよい。なお、熱源機は、ガスの燃焼により水を加熱して湯とする装置としてもよいし、ガス以外の燃料を燃焼させて水を加熱して湯とする装置としてもよいし、電気によって水を加熱して湯とする装置としてもよく、その詳細は適宜設定されるものである。   Furthermore, a heat source device may be connected to the bath system, or a heating system or a solar heat collector may be connected via the heat source device. The heat source device may be a device that heats water by gas combustion to make hot water, may be a device that burns fuel other than gas to heat water to make water, or uses water to generate electricity. It is good also as an apparatus which heats and makes hot water, The details are set suitably.

さらに、図13に示すように、熱源機に多機能ユニット33を組み込んだ風呂システムを形成することもできる。つまり、循環路2に、浴槽1の水を追い焚きする追い焚き交換器68を設けて追い焚き循環路を形成し(循環路2を追い焚き循環路とし)、この追い焚き循環路に多機能ユニット33を介設した構成としてもよい。なお、この例では、空気導入手段16が空気導入弁により形成されて循環路2の管路2aに設けられており、空気導入手段16には注湯通路74が接続されている。また、風呂温度センサ27は流水スイッチ53内に設けられているが、図の破線に示すように、追い焚き熱交換器68の出側に設けられていてもよい。   Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 13, it is also possible to form a bath system in which the multifunction unit 33 is incorporated in the heat source machine. In other words, a recirculation exchanger 68 for replenishing the water in the bathtub 1 is provided in the circulation path 2 to form a recirculation circulation path (the circulation path 2 is regarded as a recirculation circulation path), and this recirculation circulation path is multifunctional. A configuration in which the unit 33 is interposed may be adopted. In this example, the air introduction means 16 is formed by an air introduction valve and is provided in the pipe 2 a of the circulation path 2, and a pouring passage 74 is connected to the air introduction means 16. Moreover, although the bath temperature sensor 27 is provided in the running water switch 53, it may be provided on the outlet side of the reheating heat exchanger 68 as indicated by a broken line in the figure.

同図に示すシステム構成を簡単に説明すると、器具ケース61内に、3つの燃焼面を持つ給湯バーナ62と、追い焚きバーナ63と、給湯熱交換器67、追い焚き熱交換器68、燃焼ファン64を設けており、バーナ62,63への燃料供給用のガス管69にガス電磁弁70、ガス比例弁78が介設されている。給湯熱交換器67の入側には給水通路65が設けられ、給湯熱交換器67の出側には給湯通路66が接続されている。また、符号71,72はサーミスタ、符号73は流量検出手段、符号75は注湯電磁弁、符号76はドレン管、符号77はドレンの中和器を、それぞれ示している。なお、このような風呂システムにおいて、多機能ユニット33は器具ケース61内に設けてもよい。   Briefly explaining the system configuration shown in the figure, a hot water supply burner 62 having three combustion surfaces, a reheating burner 63, a hot water supply heat exchanger 67, a reheating heat exchanger 68, and a combustion fan are provided in the appliance case 61. 64, a gas solenoid valve 70 and a gas proportional valve 78 are interposed in a gas pipe 69 for supplying fuel to the burners 62 and 63. A water supply passage 65 is provided on the inlet side of the hot water supply heat exchanger 67, and a hot water supply passage 66 is connected to the outlet side of the hot water supply heat exchanger 67. Reference numerals 71 and 72 denote a thermistor, reference numeral 73 denotes a flow rate detecting means, reference numeral 75 denotes a pouring solenoid valve, reference numeral 76 denotes a drain pipe, and reference numeral 77 denotes a drain neutralizer. In such a bath system, the multi-function unit 33 may be provided in the appliance case 61.

また、図13に示したように、浴槽1と循環路2との接続部を1カ所として、接続具を介して循環路2の管路2aと管路2dを近接させて接続してもよく、この構成は、前記第1〜第3実施例のシステム構成に適用することもできる。   Moreover, as shown in FIG. 13, the connection part of the bathtub 1 and the circulation path 2 may be made into one place, and the pipe line 2a and the pipe line 2d of the circulation path 2 may be connected in close proximity via a connector. This configuration can also be applied to the system configurations of the first to third embodiments.

さらに、第2実施例のように、中水通路19に水貯留タンク45を介設する構成において、水貯留タンク45に、水貯留タンク45内が予め定めたオン駆動圧以下になるとオンして該オフ駆動圧よりも高い予め定めたオフ駆動圧以上になるとオフする圧力スイッチ43を設けて構成してもよい(図5の破線、参照)。この場合、微細気泡含有中水導出制御手段は圧力スイッチ43のオン信号が加えられたときに、ポンプ4の駆動を開始し、圧力スイッチ43のオフ信号が加えられたときに、ポンプ4の駆動を停止するようにし、その他の動作は、前記第2実施例とほぼ同様に行うようにする。   Further, in the configuration in which the water storage tank 45 is provided in the middle water passage 19 as in the second embodiment, the water storage tank 45 is turned on when the inside of the water storage tank 45 is equal to or lower than a predetermined ON driving pressure. A pressure switch 43 that turns off when a predetermined off driving pressure higher than the off driving pressure is reached may be provided (see the broken line in FIG. 5). In this case, the microbubble-containing middle water derivation control means starts driving the pump 4 when the ON signal of the pressure switch 43 is applied, and drives the pump 4 when the OFF signal of the pressure switch 43 is applied. The other operations are performed in substantially the same manner as in the second embodiment.

なお、この構成においても、空気導入弁開閉制御手段20は、風呂温度検出手段27の検出温度が予め定めた設定温度以上の時には、ポンプ4の駆動直後に空気導入手段16を開状態として空気を浴槽水に溶融させるが、風呂温度検出手段27の検出温度が予め定めた設定温度未満の時には、空気導入弁開閉制御手段20は、ポンプの駆動開始から弁開設定待機時間が経過するまでは空気導入手段を閉状態とし、前記弁開設定待機時間が経過した以降に、空気導入手段16を開状態として空気を浴槽水に溶融させることが好ましい。また、水貯留タンク45の圧力スイッチ43が予め定められた設定判断時間以内に予め定めた設定回数以上のオンオフ動作を繰り返し行ったときには、その直後に空気導入手段16を開状態として空気を浴槽水に溶融させるとよい。   Even in this configuration, the air introduction valve opening / closing control means 20 opens the air introduction means 16 immediately after the pump 4 is driven when the temperature detected by the bath temperature detection means 27 is equal to or higher than a preset temperature. When the temperature detected by the bath temperature detecting means 27 is lower than a preset temperature, the air introduction valve opening / closing control means 20 is in the air until the valve opening set waiting time elapses from the start of driving the pump. It is preferable that after the introduction means is closed and the valve opening set waiting time elapses, the air introduction means 16 is opened to melt the air into the bath water. Further, when the pressure switch 43 of the water storage tank 45 repeatedly performs the on / off operation more than a predetermined number of times within a predetermined setting determination time, immediately after that, the air introduction means 16 is opened and the air is supplied to the bath water. It is good to melt.

さらに、例えば図8(a)の破線に示すように、オゾンを収容するオゾン収容部55を空気導入手段16に接続し、空気導入手段16からオゾンを導入するオゾン導入手段を形成して、空気の代わりにオゾンを導入するようにしてもよい。   Further, for example, as shown by a broken line in FIG. 8 (a), an ozone accommodating portion 55 that accommodates ozone is connected to the air introducing means 16, and an ozone introducing means that introduces ozone from the air introducing means 16 is formed. Instead of this, ozone may be introduced.

さらに、中水導出口18の構成や個数、配設場所等、スイッチ26,28の構成や個数、配設場所等は、特に限定されるものでなく、適宜設定されるものであり、様々な風呂システムに本発明を適用できる。   Further, the configuration and number of the intermediate water outlet 18, the arrangement location, and the like, and the configuration and number of the switches 26 and 28, the arrangement location, etc. are not particularly limited and are set as appropriate. The present invention can be applied to a bath system.

本発明は、浴槽の残り湯を、システムに設けた微細気泡発生機能による洗浄効果を活かして有効に再利用できるので、家庭用や宿泊施設等に設けられる風呂システムとして利用できる。   INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY Since the remaining hot water in the bathtub can be effectively reused by taking advantage of the cleaning effect provided by the fine bubble generating function provided in the system, it can be used as a bath system provided in homes or accommodation facilities.
