Therefore, to clean the gallery 20, a toothbrush or the like must be used. It was hard and couldn't be cleaned completely.

  Generally, in order to remove wrinkles generated in the bathroom, washing is performed using a mold remover. However, this wrinkle remover is harmful and has a fear of adversely affecting the human body.

  Further, when the gonococcus was introduced into the bathroom from the gallery provided at the lower part of the bathroom door, the moth fell on the floor surface on which it was easy to propagate, and there was a fear that moths would be generated at that location.

When the ventilation equipment is operated to reduce the humidity in the bathroom, in the case of the conventional vent provided at the lower part of the bathroom door, the sucked air comes into contact with the wet parts such as the bathroom door, floor, etc. Sucked by. At this time, dust will be sucked in from the living space, and the germs adhering to the dust will adhere to the bathroom. There are many substances that serve as a bait for bacteria and yeast, and the attached bacteria propagate and stains caused by these bacteria become conspicuous.

(Comparison between Example 1 and Comparative Example 1)
According to the result of Example 1, generation | occurrence | production of the soot in a bathroom was able to be eliminated.
This is because the air sucked in from the outside contacts only a part of the ceiling portion where there is almost no nutrient such as scale peculiar to the bathroom.
According to the result of Comparative Example 1, wrinkles on the bathroom floor and the vent (glare) occurred.
The reason for this is that the conventional vent (gully) has a complicated and narrow space so that the water used in the bathroom does not scatter outside, so the vent with wet air containing dust flowing from outside the bathroom It is thought that it was propagated by feeding a large amount of attached garbage and dirt such as scales scattered from the bathroom.

  Moreover, although some wrinkles were seen also in the floor in the comparative example 1, the shape of the vent provided in the lower part of the door frame is also set in the direction in which air flows toward the floor inside the bathroom. Therefore, it is thought that the air containing the dust on which the gonococcus was placed adhered to the wet part of the floor and propagated with nutrients such as scale.

(About Example 2)
According to the result of Example 2, the result of Example 2 is shown by providing a vent in the upper part of the door frame of the bathroom door in the bathroom provided with the downward jet type circulation ventilation fan on the ceiling in the bathroom. As a result, the generation of wrinkles in the bathroom was eliminated.
This is because the air flowing in from the outside contacts only a part of the ceiling portion where there is almost no nutrient such as scale peculiar to the bathroom. The circulating wind also hits the floor, doors, etc., but the air that passed through the ventilation fan passes through the filter, so dust that contains soot is removed, and dust that contains soot does not adhere to the floor and door. Moreover, compared with Example 1, since the flow of air is large and it is easy to dry, generation | occurrence | production of soot is still less.

(About Example 3)
According to the result of Example 3, the result of Example 3 shows by providing a vent in the upper part of the door frame of the bathroom door in the bathroom provided with the downward jet type circulation ventilation fan on the ceiling in the bathroom. As a result, the generation of wrinkles in the bathroom was eliminated.
This is because the air flowing in from the outside contacts only a part of the ceiling portion where there is almost no nutrient such as scale peculiar to the bathroom. The circulating wind also hits the floor, doors, etc., but the air that passed through the ventilation fan passes through the filter, so dust that contains soot is removed, and dust that contains soot does not adhere to the floor and door. Compared with Example 2, air with a high temperature flows, so that it is easy to dry and wrinkles are much less generated.

(About Example 4)
According to the result of Example 4, by providing a vent in the upper part of the door frame of the bathroom door, and providing a movable flap on the vent, as shown in the result of Example 4, the soot in the bathroom Occurrence could be eliminated.
This is because the air flowing in from the outside contacts only a part of the ceiling portion where there is almost no nutrient such as scale peculiar to the bathroom. The circulating wind also hits the floor, doors, etc., but the air that passed through the ventilation fan passes through the filter, so dust that contains soot is removed, and dust that contains soot does not adhere to the floor and door. Further, in comparison with Example 1, when a ventilation facility is not used, although a slight amount of steam flows out to the outside and the wall or the like may be moistened, this is prevented and substantially the same as the inner surface of the door. What provided the flap in the same plane can maintain cleaning property.

  From the above results, according to the bathroom door of the present invention, generation of wrinkles in the bathroom can be eliminated.

  The bathroom door which provided the vent in the upper part of this invention can be applied to a bathroom.
