They are integrally fixed by using a non-separable means such as an adhesive or welding. Further this At least one of antibacterial, antibacterial, or antistatic is provided on the inner surface of the communication pipe 23. Rui is treated by combining them.

[0020]   Further, the headset unit 13 includes an ear pad left 25 and an ear pad right 26. And a headband 27 that connects the earpiece left 25 and the earpiece right 26, and oxygen enrichment The air outlet 21 and the bottom surface 28 of the ear pad left 25 are detachably connected to the bottom surface. 28 and the discharge port 21 and a flexible universal joint portion provided so as to be bendable 29 and 29. In addition, the second connection, one end of which is connected to the liquid pool 22, Similarly to the flexible universal joint section 29, the other end of the connecting tube 24 has a headset unit. It is detachably connected to the bottom surface 28 of the left ear piece 25 of the belt 13.

[0021]   The liquid pool 22 is an O-ring to maintain airtightness, and a screw method or press-fitting method is used. Etc., the main body portion is provided so as to be separable into two parts 22a and 22b. It is provided so as to separate the minute portion into two and to discharge water droplets and the like accumulated inside. At this time With the screw method, it is possible to separate and connect by twisting within one rotation. .

[0022]   In addition, the connection between the liquid pool 22 and the first communication pipe 23, and the liquid pool 22 Pipe parts protruding into the liquid pool 22 from the connection part with the second communication pipe 24, respectively. A30 and a pipe portion B31 are provided, and the pipe portion A30 and the pipe portion B31 are mutually The central axes of the tubes are offset.

[0023]   On the other hand, the discharge port 21 provided in the headset unit 13 is as shown in FIG. The discharge port main body 21a and the lid band 21b are configured to be openable and closable by a spring latch or the like. On the upstream side near the surface, a filter such as a bio-sterilization filter in which an enzyme is attached to a honeycomb substrate is removed. Bacteria filter (hereinafter referred to as “bio-sterilization filter”) 34 is placed under the surface. On the flow side, a high collection efficiency filter such as HEPA filter with antibacterial Amenitop ( Hereinafter, each is referred to as "HEPA filter of antibacterial material Amenitop" 35 is doing. It also contains a spherical body 46 impregnated with an aromatic agent. And the The io sanitizing filter 34 suppresses the activity of caught bacteria, and further It also suppresses the activities of the su. In addition, the antibacterial material Amenitop HEPA filter 35 is , 99.7% of 0.3 micron particles are removed, and the action of antibacterial Amenitop It controls the activity of fungi and mold collected by the dust, and the spherical body 46 is the discharged air. It is to add incense to.

[0024]   Reference numeral 32 shown in FIG. 5 is an operation switch provided on the top surface of the main body 1. Is also provided on the top surface of the main body 1 and is operated by a selected timer. Is a lamp that displays the energization state of the blow operation. And 50 is installed on the front surface of the main body 1. Is on, and only when high oxygen concentration so-called oxygen-enriched air is being supplied) The display means is a LED, and in this embodiment, is configured to emit green light. I am doing it.

[0025]   Next, the operation of this embodiment based on the above configuration will be described.

[0026]   When the operation switch 32 is turned on, a control hand that supplies operating power to the pump 10 The stage (not shown) operates, the lamp 33 showing the energized state lights up, and the timer The pump 10 is operated and the fan 9 is operated according to the time set by the arrow. That The outside air is sucked through the intake port 7 provided in the main body 1 by the operation of the fan 9 Passes through the oxygen enrichment membrane unit 2 and is discharged from the exhaust port 8 to the outside of the main body. Meanwhile, the above The outside air passing through the oxygen-enriched membrane unit 2 is driven by the pump 10 when passing through it. Air is sucked into the frame 3 of the oxygen-enriched membrane unit 2 while oxygen is passing therethrough. Oxygen-enriched air is obtained from a clean place. And this oxygen-enriched air is 12 and is discharged from the discharge port 12.

[0027]   The oxygen-enriched air discharged from the discharge port 12 is supplied to the first and second communication pipes 23, 2. 4 is ejected from the ejection port 21 of the headset unit 13. Therefore , The user sets the headset unit 13 on the head, and the flexible universal joint 29 By moving the discharge port 21 closer to the mouth or nose of the user, Oxygen-enriched air discharged from it can be inhaled through the mouth and nose.

[0028]   Here, since the communication pipe is fixed to the main body 1 and is not removable, By removing this communication pipe from the main body, bacteria will not enter from the end opening It can be used hygienically even if used for a long time.

[0029]   In addition, the pump 10 for supplying the oxygen-enriched air is, for example, about 1 Open the solenoid valve 60 for switching the outside air introduction for a minute to suck the outside air that does not pass through the oxygen-enriched film 4. It is configured so that outside air other than the oxygen-enriched air can be fed into the communication pipe. Therefore, the condensed water that passes through the oxygen-enriched membrane together with oxygen and condenses in the communication pipe is dried. Can be dried. Therefore, condensed water accumulates in the communication pipe, which causes head condensation. From the discharge port 21 of the unit 13 along with oxygen-enriched air to the mouth of the user Such a thing can be prevented and it can be used hygienically.

[0030]   Furthermore, the inner surface of the communication pipe is treated with either antibacterial or antibacterial treatment. Because of the presence of bacteria, it is difficult for bacteria to propagate and can be used hygienically even after long-term use.

[0031]   In the above embodiment, the user wears the head on the head as the oxygen-enriched air discharge means. Although the headset unit 13 to be worn is illustrated, the present invention is not limited to this. There is no problem even if you wear it on your neck or shoulder, and you can use it on a part of your arm or part of your torso. There is no problem with the type of wrapping around with Velcro (registered trademark), etc. There is no problem even if you wear a pin on some clothing such as a tie, and of course, a dustproof There is no problem with a type that covers part of the face with ears, such as a disc.

[0032]
