槽湯の清浄化装置が開発された。2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, bath water has been cleaned by pumping hot water in a bathtub with a circulation pump and forcibly circulating through a circulation path provided with various types of cleaning equipment so that the cleaned hot water is ejected into the bathtub again. Developing device was developed.

処理機器が配備されている。[0003] This bathtub hot water purifying apparatus includes a circulation pump for circulating hot water, a pre-filter provided at a hot water inlet of a hot water suction pipe for filtering large dirt, and a filter material capable of filtering dirt and simultaneously filtering the dirt. In order to perform the water treatment according to the requirements, there are provided a filtration tank filled with a porous granular filter material, an ozone sterilizer for sterilization, and a cleaning device such as a heater for keeping hot water at an appropriate temperature.

物質が単独或は複合して充填され濾過層が形成されてい
る。In the filtration tank, activated stones such as barley stone that removes dirt components by ion exchange and simultaneously elute and activate minerals, activated carbon that adsorbs dirt and adsorbs dirt, and adsorbs dirt simultaneously A porous particulate material having various water treatment capacities such as zeolite to be removed by filtration is filled alone or in combination to form a filtration layer.
【0005】このため濾過タンクは、前記したように、
濾過層による単なる濾過能力だけでなく、充填されてい
る濾材の能力に応じた水処理能力を持ち浴槽湯の清浄化
に効果を発揮するのである。[0005] For this reason, the filtration tank is, as described above,
The water treatment capacity according to the capacity of the filled filter medium as well as the mere filtration capacity of the filtration layer is effective in purifying bath water.
【0006】以上のような清浄化装置の開発により、湯
を交換することなく24時間いつでも清浄かつ適温の湯
で快適な入浴を楽しめるようになった。[0006] With the development of the above-described cleaning device, it has become possible to enjoy a comfortable bath with clean and appropriate temperature water anytime for 24 hours without replacing the hot water.
【0007】このような清浄化装置は、5〜6ケ月程度
運転を続けると濾過タンクに充填された濾材に汚れが付
いて濾過層が目詰まりし、湯の循環量が減って清浄化の
能力が落ちてしまう。[0007] When such a cleaning device is operated for about 5 to 6 months, the filter medium filled in the filtration tank becomes dirty and the filter layer is clogged, the amount of hot water circulated is reduced, and the cleaning performance is reduced. Will fall.
【0008】このため濾過層が目詰まりした場合には、
濾過層を形成する濾材は必ずしも安くなく頻繁に交換で
きないので、濾材を濾過タンクから取り出して洗浄する
ようにしている。For this reason, when the filter layer is clogged,
Since the filter medium forming the filter layer is not always cheap and cannot be replaced frequently, the filter medium is taken out of the filter tank and washed.
【0009】また、濾材の洗浄は手間が掛かると同時に
汚い作業であまり好まれないので、濾材を濾過タンクか

過層を清浄化処理の場合とは反対の方向に流して濾材を
洗浄するいわゆる逆洗装置を取り付けた装置も多く開発
されている。[0009] In addition, since cleaning of the filter medium is troublesome and unfavorable because of dirty work, hot water is used to clean the filter layer so that the filter medium can be automatically cleaned without removing the filter medium from the filtration tank. Many devices having a so-called backwashing device for washing a filter medium by flowing in the opposite direction have been developed.
【0010】[0010]
【発明が解決しようとする課題】しかしながら、従来の
逆洗装置を利用しての濾材の洗浄では、濾材はあまり奇
麗にはならないと同時に、切替弁が故障し易かったりす
る問題があった。However, when the filter medium is cleaned using the conventional backwashing apparatus, the filter medium is not so beautiful and the switching valve is liable to be broken.
【0011】すなわち、濾材層に対して単に湯を濾過の
場合と逆方向に流しただけではは濾過層は全く崩れず濾
材は相互に密着した状態にあるので、濾過層の表面部分
の濾材に付いた汚れは取り除けても濾過層内部の濾材の
汚れを取り除くのは難しく、濾材全部を奇麗にはできな
かった。In other words, simply flowing hot water in the direction opposite to the direction of filtration in the filter medium layer does not cause any collapse of the filter layer and the filter media are in close contact with each other. Even if the attached dirt was removed, it was difficult to remove the dirt from the filter medium inside the filter layer, and the entire filter medium could not be cleaned.
【0012】また、湯の流れる方向を逆にするためには
必ず切替弁を設けなければならず、この他に洗浄水を浴
槽の外に排出するためには排水管方向に湯の流れを切り
替えることも必要なので、これらの切替のために3方向
の切替弁を二つ設けるか、7方向程度に切り替えられる
多方向の切替弁を一つ設けるかしなければならない。In order to reverse the direction in which the hot water flows, a switching valve must be provided. In addition, in order to discharge the washing water out of the bathtub, the flow of the hot water is switched in the direction of the drain pipe. Therefore, it is necessary to provide two three-way switching valves or one multi-directional switching valve capable of switching about seven directions.
【0013】ところが、汚れた湯が流れる管路に切替弁
を設けると汚れが弁に付いて故障し易く、特に複雑な構
造となる多方向の切替弁の場合は故障し易いが、3方向
弁も二つ設けるので弁が故障する機会が多いことには変
わりがない。However, if a switching valve is provided in a pipe through which dirty hot water flows, dirt is likely to be attached to the valve and cause a failure. Particularly, in the case of a multi-directional switching valve having a complicated structure, failure tends to occur. Since two valves are provided, there is still much chance that the valve will break down.
【0014】また、前記したように濾材の洗浄が効果的

うに比較的粒径の大きな濾材を用い濾過層の目が粗くし
ているので、濾材にまだ汚れが付かない装置の運転を始
めた頃の段階では小さな汚れを濾過しにくく、湯が白濁
する欠点がある。Further, as described above, since the filter medium cannot be effectively washed, a filter medium having a relatively large particle size is used to coarsen the filter layer so as to delay the clogging of the filter layer as much as possible. At the beginning of the operation of the apparatus in which the filter medium has not yet been contaminated, it is difficult to filter small contaminants and the hot water becomes cloudy.
【0015】本発明は、前記したような従来技術の欠点

浄化装置である。That is, according to the present invention, hot water in a bath tub is pumped by a circulation pump and forcedly circulated in a circulation path provided with various cleaning equipment, and the purified hot water is returned to the bath tub. In the bath tub cleaning device, a filter tank for filtering dirt is formed by depositing a filter medium on a perforated plate to form a filter layer, and pressing the upper surface of the filter layer above the filter layer. A bathtub hot water characterized in that a mesh holding plate is provided so as to be movable up and down, a hot water inlet is provided below the filter layer and a hot water outlet is provided above the hot water so that the hot water flows through the filter layer from below to above. In the bathtub hot water purifier having the above-described structure, a hot water outlet for discharging hot water into the bathtub is connected to a hot water outlet provided above the filter layer of the filtration tank. Connection between the hot water spout and the drainpipe that drains out of the bathtub A hot water outlet, and two outlets for the hot water and the hot water are opened and closed as the mesh presser plate moves up and down. .
【0017】[0017]

となるので、個々の濾材粒子に付いた汚れを効果的に洗
浄できる。The present invention is constructed as described above, and when performing a cleaning treatment, since the upper surface of the filter layer is pressed by a mesh pressing plate from above, a solid filter layer is formed without losing water pressure. However, if the mesh holding plate is moved upward during cleaning and the upper surface is not pressed from above, the filter layer collapses due to the water pressure of the hot water flowing from the bottom to the top of the filter layer, and the filter medium becomes a fluid state. The dirt attached to the filter medium particles can be effectively washed.
【0018】しかもこの濾材の洗浄において、湯の流れ
る方向は清浄化処理の場合と同じであるので従来のよう
に、湯の流れる方向を変えるための切替弁を設ける必要
がない。In addition, since the direction in which the hot water flows in the washing of the filter medium is the same as in the case of the cleaning treatment, there is no need to provide a switching valve for changing the flowing direction of the hot water unlike the conventional case.
【0019】したがつて、洗浄の終わった湯を排水管に
流すための構造が比較的簡単な3方向の切替弁を一つ設
ければ良いので、弁が故障する機会は非常に少なくな
る。Accordingly, it is sufficient to provide one three-way switching valve having a relatively simple structure for flowing the hot water having been washed through the drain pipe, so that the chance of failure of the valve is greatly reduced.
【0020】さらに湯の流出口を二つ設け、この二つの

う構成した場合には、全く切替弁を設ける必要がなくな
る。Further, two hot water outlets are provided, and the two outlets are selectively opened and closed so that one is opened and the other is closed in accordance with the up and down movement of a mesh holding plate for holding the filtration layer. In such a case, there is no need to provide a switching valve at all.
【0021】また濾材を自動的に所定の間隔で効果的に
洗浄して濾過層を絶えず目詰まりしない状態に保って置
けるので、比較的粒径の小さな濾材により濾過層を形成
し、装置の運転を開始した直後から小さな汚れも容易に
濾過するようにできる。In addition, since the filter medium is automatically and effectively washed at predetermined intervals to keep the filter layer constantly clogged, the filter layer is formed with a filter medium having a relatively small particle size, and the operation of the apparatus is performed. Immediately after starting, small dirt can be easily filtered.
【0022】これにより、運転初期に、未だ濾材が目詰
まりしていないので小さな汚れが濾過できず湯が白濁す
るといったような、従来の装置に見られた欠点は発生し
なくなる。As a result, in the early stage of the operation, since the filter medium has not yet been clogged, small dirt cannot be filtered and the hot water becomes cloudy.
