Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial Application] This invention relates to a sauna.

[Conventional technology and problems]

In recent years, interest in health has increased significantly,
As one of the manifestations, saunas are beginning to be used at home.

Dry sauna (RH 30% or less, temperature
80 ~ 100 ℃) and wet sauna (relative humidity 100% RH,
There is a temperature of about 40-45 ℃). Each has its own characteristics, so you may want to continue taking both wet and dry saunas. However, it is difficult to switch from a wet sauna to a dry sauna in the same sauna. This is because there are too many differences in humidity.

[Problems to be solved by the device]

In view of the above circumstances, an object of the present invention is to provide a sauna in which the switching from a wet sauna to a dry sauna can be quickly performed in the same bathroom.

[Means for solving the problem]

In order to solve the above problems, in the sauna according to the present invention, as shown in FIG. 1, for example, a dry heater 2 is provided in the bathroom. The dry heater 2 creates a dry sauna environment in the bathroom, which is dry at a relatively high temperature. Steam supply means 3 for supplying steam to the lower part of the bathroom is provided in the lower part of the bathroom. The steam supply means 3 is
It creates a wet sauna environment in the bathroom, which has a lower temperature but a higher humidity than the dry sauna environment described above. Therefore, the steam that has been heated to a predetermined temperature is supplied from the steam supply means 3. In the lower part of the bathroom, a forced exhaust means 4 is provided which switches the atmosphere in the bathroom to switch between a dry sauna environment and a wet sauna environment.

A ceramic heater, a sheath heater, or the like is used as the dry heater. As the steam supply means 3, for example, a steam generator or the like is used. As the forced exhaust means, for example, a ventilation fan or the like is used.

[Action]

In the sauna of the present invention, the forced exhaust means is provided in the lower part of the bathroom, so that the switching from the wet sauna (steam sauna) to the dry sauna can be performed quickly. That is,
When switching from a wet sauna to a dry sauna,
As shown in FIG. 2, the forced exhaust means 3 is operated to quickly exhaust the moist heavy air with a low temperature in the wet sauna from the lower part of the bathroom to the outside of the bathroom to remove the indoor humidity. is there.

〔Example〕

Hereinafter, an embodiment of the sauna of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 schematically shows the main structure of an embodiment of a sauna according to the present invention, and FIG. 3 shows the interior of the bathroom of this sauna in detail. FIG. 2 is a block diagram for explaining the operation when switching from a wet sauna to a dry sauna in this sauna.

In the bathroom 10 of the sauna 1, a dry heater 2 and a steam generator (wet heater) 3 as a steam supply means are provided, and a forced exhaust means 4 is provided. The bather also sits on the slatted board chair 7 provided in the bathroom 10 and leans on the slatted board backrest 12 to take a relaxing bath in the sauna. Also, while bathing, the music played from the speaker 6 can be enjoyed.

The atmosphere in the bathroom 10 can be controlled by the sensor 15 and the controller 17. In addition, 5 is an illumination lamp. Of course, it goes without saying that the bathroom 10 is also provided with a door for bathers to enter and leave.

As described above, when switching from the wet sauna to the dry sauna, the forced exhaust means 4 under the chair 7 is operated to perform the quick switching, as described above.

This invention is not limited to the above embodiment. For example, the steam generator 3 may be arranged outside the bathroom 10 so that steam is supplied from the outside to the inside of the bathroom.

[Effect of device]

Since the sauna according to the present invention can quickly discharge the moisture generated in the wet sauna to the outside of the bathroom, the wet sauna can be quickly switched to the dry sauna.
