Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an enzyme bath based on the method of culturing cells, and more particularly to an enzyme bath formed by supplying oxygen to a bath agent filled in a bathtub to form an aerobic environment. The present invention relates to an enzyme bath in which bacteria are activated and a predetermined temperature is obtained by fermentation heat of the enzyme bacteria to take a bath.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As is well known, bathing in an enzyme bath using fermentation by an enzyme bacterium as a bath agent composed of rice bran, sawdust and the like is known. In the enzyme bath, the body of the bather is heated by the heat generated by the fermentation of the enzyme bacteria to decompose and remove waste products on the surface.

[0003] The heat generated by the fermentation of the enzyme bacterium is, for example, 60 to 80 degrees Celsius, which promotes sweating of the bather and removes excess water from the bather together with waste products. In addition, since the bathing agent is not hot water, the sweat glands of the bather can be easily opened, so that sweating can be further promoted.

[0004] Further, since the above-mentioned bath agent is composed of rice bran, sawdust, etc., its specific gravity is very light as compared with hot water. For this reason, the bather's body is less squeezed when taking a bath, and can be mentally relaxed, so that a feeling of liberation due to bathing can be further obtained.

In the case of an enzyme bath, for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 61-265 discloses a method for promoting fermentation by an enzyme bacterium.
As proposed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 141, an air supply pipe is provided below the bathtub so that warm air is supplied from below the bath agent.

That is, as shown in FIG. 5, a hot air supply pipe 52 is provided at the bottom of the bathtub 51, and air is blown into the bathtub 51 from a blower (not shown) via the hot air supply pipe 52. By supplying the enzyme, the activation of the enzyme and the supply of oxygen are aimed at, and the fermentation of the enzyme bacterium put in the bath preparation 53 is promoted.

[0007]

By repeatedly taking a bath, waste products are generated in the bathing agent 53, and the waste products accumulate in the lower part of the bath tub. We take out and discard.

However, since the conventional bathtub 51 is provided with a hot air supply pipe 52 at the lower part thereof, the work of removing wastes collected below the bath agent 53 is troublesome, and many maintenance operations are required. There was a problem that took time.

In the case of an enzyme bath, since heat is obtained by fermentation by an enzyme bacterium, it is necessary to maintain the internal temperature at a temperature at which the enzyme bacterium is activated, for example, 40 ° C. or more. However, conventionally, since the bathtub has a single-layer structure, the heat retention is poor, and there has been a problem that the temperature of the wall surface tends to decrease. When the temperature of the wall surface decreases to, for example, about 30 degrees, not only the activation of the enzyme bacterium decreases, but also germs easily grow in the bathtub 51, which causes a problem in hygiene.

In view of the above-mentioned problems, the present invention can improve the heat retention in the bathtub to suppress the growth of various bacteria, and can easily clean the bathtub to facilitate maintenance work. An object of the present invention is to provide an enzyme bath based on the body growth fluid structure method.

[0011]

The enzyme bath based on the microbial cell growth fluid structure method of the present invention forms an aerobic environment by supplying warm air from below the bathtub to activate the enzyme bacteria. In the enzyme bath in which the bath agent filled in the bath is heated by the fermentation action of the enzyme bacterium, the side surface 1b of the bathtub 1 is formed in a double structure, and the bottom surface 1a is formed. A groove 2 is formed in the bathtub 1 and the groove 2 is closed with a perforated plate 3 to improve the heat retention of the side surface 1b of the bathtub 1 and to send hot air into the bathtub 1 through the groove 2. It is characterized in that it is supplied.

Another feature of the present invention is that
The bathtub 1 is characterized by being made of FRP resin.

[0013]

Since the present invention has the above technical means, oxygen is supplied through the groove 2 formed in the bottom surface 1a of the bathtub 1 and mixed with the bath agent 5 filled in the bathtub 1. An optimal environment for the enzymatic bacteria
This activates the enzyme bacterium, whereby the temperature of the bath agent 5 is raised to a temperature suitable for bathing by the fermentation action of the enzyme bacterium.

Further, a groove 2 is formed in the bottom surface 1a of the bathtub 1 and warm air is supplied into the bathtub 1 through the groove 2 so that warm air is supplied on the bottom surface 1a of the bathtub 1. Since it is not necessary to provide a feed pipe, the work of replacing the bath agent 5 and the work of cleaning the inside of the bathtub 1 can be easily performed, and the maintenance work can be streamlined. .

[0015]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Next, an embodiment of an enzyme bath based on the method of the present invention for growing a bacterial cell will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In FIG. 1, 1 is a bathtub, 1a is a bottom surface, 1
b is a side surface, 2 is a groove, 3 is a perforated plate, 4 is a through hole, and 5 is a bath agent.

The bathtub 1 is made of, for example, FRP resin, and has a groove 2 formed on the bottom surface 1a. In the present embodiment, an example is shown in which one groove 2 is formed along the longitudinal direction of the bathtub 1 and five grooves 2 are formed so as to intersect with the groove 2 along the longitudinal direction. The width and depth of the groove 2 may be any size, and can be appropriately set according to the size of the bathtub 1 and the amount of the bath agent 5 to be filled in the bathtub 1.

The perforated plate 3 covering the upper surface of the groove 2 is detachably mounted on the groove 2 and can be removed when cleaning the inside of the groove 2. The above perforated plate 3
Has a plurality of through-holes 4 formed therein, as described later.
Air sent from the outside into the groove 2 is supplied into the bathtub 1 through the plurality of through holes 4.

The enzyme bath based on the microbial cell growth fluid structure method of the present embodiment uses a bath agent 5 containing rice bran as a main raw material and utilizes the fact that the rice bran is fermented by the action of the enzyme bacteria.
The present invention is intended to maintain and promote the mental and physical health of a bather taking a bath in the bath preparation 5.

It is generally known that the rice bran used as the main raw material of the bath additive 5 is fermented, and it is well known that fermentation of the rice bran gives bathers a good effect on mental and physical health. ing.

In order to favorably ferment the rice bran, it is desirable to place the bath agent 5 in an aerobic environment. For this reason, in the present embodiment, air is supplied to the bath agent 5 so that the bath agent 5 is maintained in an aerobic environment.

That is, as shown in the sectional view of FIG. 4, an air supply blower 10 is connected to the groove 2 through an air supply pipe 11, and the air (50 ° to 50 °)
60 ° hot air) is supplied to the groove 2. Thus, an opening / closing valve 12 is provided on the air supply pipe 11, and a cap 13 is provided on the other end of the ventilation pipe 14 communicating with the groove 2.

The air supplied into the groove 2 is
Is supplied into the bathtub 1 through the through holes 4 formed in the perforated plate 3 covering the upper part of the bathtub, and is supplied into the bath additive 5 filled in the bathtub 1. The through hole 4 has a diameter of 2-3.
Since it is formed in a size of about mm, air can be satisfactorily supplied from the groove 2 to the bathtub 1, and the bath agent 5 filled in the bathtub 1 is filled in the groove 2. Falling can be prevented as much as possible.

Further, the bathtub 1 of the present embodiment has a double side wall 1b. Therefore, the heat retention near the side surface 1b can be dramatically improved, so that the temperature near the side surface 1b decreases and the fermentation action of the enzyme bacterium decreases, and various bacteria grow in the bathtub 1. It can be prevented and used hygienically.

Next, the maintenance of the enzyme bath based on the microbial cell growth fluid structure method of the present embodiment will be described. First, when using a new bath additive 5, the water content should be 50 to 6%.
A hot aerobic enzyme is mixed into the rice bran adjusted to 0%.

Then, the blower 10 is operated to
Hot air of about 0 ° to 60 ° is supplied to the bath agent 5. As described above, the hot air is supplied to the aerobic enzyme bacterium by opening the open / close valve 12, the blower 10 → the air supply pipe 11 → the groove 2 → the through hole 4 of the perforated plate 3. At this time, the cap 13 is closed.

As described above, when the hot air is continuously supplied for about 30 minutes to 1 hour, the fermentation of the enzyme bacterium becomes active. Thereafter, the temperature of the bath additive 5 rises due to heat generated by natural fermentation. For example, it is about 70 to 80. However, since the bathing agent 5 has an apparent density, even when the temperature of the bathing agent 5 reaches a high temperature of about 70 to 80, the bathing agent 5 does not suffer from burns and can be bathed comfortably.

[0027] The fermentation of the enzyme bacterium as described above enables the bath to be taken when the temperature of the bath agent 5 rises, so that bathing is started. When the bathing is started, waste products such as sweat of the bather or dead enzyme bacteria are discharged into the bathing agent 5. In addition, the enzyme bacterium ferments, the blower 10 is stopped in a desired state, the opening and closing valve 12 is closed, and the cap 1
3 is removed so that air can be supplied to the enzyme bacterium through the groove 2.

Since the wastes accumulate below the bath agent 5, when about 10 to 15 people take a bath, the lower bath agent 5 in which the wastes are accumulated is removed. This moves the bath agent 5 into the separately prepared empty bathtub 1, leaving about 1 cm below.

Next, the bath agent 5 remaining about 1 cm above is removed and discarded. At this time, the bathtub 1 of the present embodiment
Since the groove 2 is formed in the bottom surface 1a of the bathtub 1 to form an air supply system for supplying air to the bath agent 5, the bottom surface of the bathtub 1 has no protrusions such as vent pipes. Therefore, the operation of removing the bath agent 5 remaining at the bottom of the bathtub 1 can be easily performed. In addition, since the inside of the groove 2 can be easily cleaned by removing the perforated plate 3, it is possible to clean all corners in the bathtub 1 and the device can be used sanitarily.

In the above embodiment, the bathtub 1
Although the example in which only the side surface 1b is configured in a double structure is shown, the bottom surface 1a may also be configured in a double structure. Also,
Since the bathtub 1 is made of FRP resin, an enzyme bath suitable for mass production can be provided, but the bathtub 1 of the present invention does not necessarily have to be FRP resin.

[0031]

As described above, according to the present invention, the enzyme is activated and cultured by supplying oxygen by supplying warm air from below the bathtub to form an aerobic environment. In an enzyme bath in which the bath agent filled in the bath is heated by fermentation of the enzyme bacterium so as to take a bath, the side surface of the bath tub is formed in a double structure, and a groove is formed on the bottom surface thereof. Since the groove is configured to be closed by the perforated plate, the heat retention of the side surface of the bathtub can be improved and the fermentation action of the enzyme bacterium can be activated. As a result, it is possible to prevent the temperature of the side surface of the bath tub from decreasing and the germs from growing,
Can be used hygienically.

According to another feature of the present invention, hot air is supplied into the bathtub through the groove, so that an unhindered protrusion in the bathtub can be eliminated and cleaning can be performed. And maintenance work can be easily performed.
