Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a portable foldable sauna room box for use in far-infrared saunas for home use in detached houses, condominiums, and housing complexes.

[Prior Art] This type of conventional folding sauna room box is described in Japanese Patent Publication No. 58-65163, which has front and rear walls made of a single-panel reflective plate and heat-resistant cloth made of aluminum coated cloth or aluminum coated leather. There is only a description of a sauna in which a capped cylindrical body is formed by foldable left and right side covers and a ceiling cover, and a far-infrared heater is installed inside a reflective plate.

As shown in Figure 3 of the above-mentioned publication, the sauna has a structure in which the left and right side covers and the ceiling cover, which do not have a frame, are connected together and fold into a bellows shape along fine folding folds. Due to the restoring elastic contraction behavior associated with the folding habits of the folding folds attached to the sauna, even when the left and right side covers and the ceiling cover are unfolded when using the sauna, the left and right side covers and the ceiling cover do not become completely flat and exhibit a wavy shape. Far-infrared rays are also diffusely reflected in all directions, making it inefficient to irradiate the human body.

Furthermore, even when folded, the folded thickness of the left and right side covers and the ceiling cover does not become thinner, but tends to bulge due to the elasticity and elongation behavior of the folded folds.

However, if the folding folds are not added, the folding will not be done smoothly, and irregular folding folds will occur on the left and right side covers and the ceiling cover, making it difficult for aluminum coated cloth or aluminum coated leather to be folded. It remains as wrinkles and is undesirable.

Furthermore, since the heater is installed opposite to the center of the inner side of the wall, the folded thickness of the left and right side covers and the ceiling cover is no less than twice the thickness of the heater installation, and the front and rear walls are of a single flat plate type. Because of this, the left and right side covers and ceiling cover sandwiched between the front and rear walls are exposed to the outside.

[Problems to be solved by the invention] This invention separates the left and right side walls and the ceiling wall with a wall frame, and when folded, the left and right side walls and the ceiling wall overlap completely between the front and rear walls. To provide a portable foldable sauna room box that can be stored and concealed and folded into a flat, compact and easy to transport and store box.

[Means for solving the problem] This proposal consists of front and rear walls that face each other, left and right side walls that can be folded inwardly into two, and a ceiling wall that is pivoted at one end and can swing back and forth to open and close. and form a celestial cylindrical body,
The left and right side walls and the ceiling wall are formed between the front and rear walls, which mutually overlap when folded, so that they can be completely stored and concealed.
