Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] Industrial Application Field The present invention provides a wet steam bath (also referred to as a steam bath) in which steam is discharged into a room to fill the room and the body sweats due to the heat of the steam, instead of the conventional dry sauna bath. This invention relates to a bathroom device for home use in which the steam bath device is housed in the bathroom or connected to the bathroom outside the bathroom through a door.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as shown in FIG. 6, for example, a bathroom device of this type has a bathroom 57 separated from an adjacent room 66 by a wall 58 or a door 59, and has a bathtub 60 and a washing area 61 for washing the body. , the hot water produced by the water heater 62 is passed through the hot water pipe 63 to the hot water tap 6.
4.65 was equipped with equipment for supplying water, and was used for normal bathing activities such as bathing in a bathtub 60-- and washing one's body. Separately, a space for storing one bather in the adjacent room 66 etc. is equipped with a heater (with a heating capacity of approximately I KWH).
(not shown) is housed within the wall surface 6B constituting a sealed space, a rough room 67 with a door 69 is provided, and the indoor air is indirectly heated through the inner wall surface by the heater.
A dry sauna bath is performed in which the temperature is maintained at a high temperature of 0°C to 110'C and the body sweats by taking a bath in a dry, high-temperature atmosphere.
It provided health benefits such as active blood circulation.

Further, following the spread of the dry sauna bath equipment, the sauna room 67 did not have a built-in heater inside the wall, but instead used a steam generator (not shown) to discharge steam into the room as an alternative heating source. At a temperature of 40°C to 55°C, 1
However, with the above configuration, the saudi room 67 has poor water resistance because the walls 68 etc. are made of wood, and the heater for heating is
Since it uses high-voltage power of 0 V or 200 cm, it uses water, and is installed in a dry adjacent room 66 or the like independently of the bathroom 57, avoiding installation in or adjacent to a bathroom with high humidity. The bather then took a bath in the sauna room 67, sweated l1, and moved from the sauna room 67 to the bathroom 57 in order to wash off the sweat that had adhered to his body. However,
Even after taking a sauna bath, the elephant's body temperature, heated to a high temperature by the sauna bath, does not drop, and it continues to sweat profusely for a while. Moreover, to finish the sauna bath,
Since the bather moves out of the sauna room 67, the bather quickly moves to the bathroom 57.

At this time, there was a problem in that even if the body was wrapped in a towel, a considerable amount of sweat would drip onto the moving floor, staining the floor with sweat and emitting a bad odor.

Moreover, in the steam bath apparatus, the above-mentioned L! In addition, when entering and exiting this device, the steam that filled the room leaked outside, and condensed water was deposited on the walls and ceilings of adjacent rooms, causing mold. Traditionally, bathrooms have not had good heating systems, which is a common problem.

For example, there are only a few methods that place hot water heaters on the floor, but the heat capacity of the floor is large, so it takes a long time to produce a heating effect, and it also requires not only a heat source but also hot water circulation piping. However, it was too expensive for household use.

Therefore, in order to solve the problem of #J parking mentioned above, the present invention stores the steam bath device inside the bathroom in a large bathroom where the steam bath device can be stored in the washing area, and also stores the steam bath device in the bathroom in a small bathroom. By installing a steam bath system on the outside of the opening in the bathroom wall through the door, it is possible to prevent steam from leaking into the residence, such as an adjacent room, and to prevent steam from moving between the bathroom and the steam bath system. The purpose is to prevent the floor surface of the room from getting dirty, and further to apply this device to heat the bathroom and take a shower bath with heating inside the steam bath device.

! Means for Solving IB In order to achieve the above object, the first means of the present invention is to provide a water-resistant and heat-resistant box that forms a sealed space, and to discharge steam into the inside of the box. A steam bath device that includes a bath and a shower section that maintains the heating temperature at an appropriate temperature and sprays cold and hot water is housed in the bathroom.

The second means is to provide an opening substantially corresponding to the frame of the door holder of the steam bath device on the side wall of the bathroom, and to connect the door holder and the frame airtightly to this opening, so that the steam bath is provided outside the bathroom. The devices are connected via the door.

Furthermore, a third means is to use a transparent or semi-transparent thin plate material with good heat dissipation for the wall surface of the steam bath apparatus and the wall surface of the door that is in contact with the bathroom space, and to heat the air in the bathroom using this wall surface as a heat dissipation surface. It is forced to circulate.

According to the first means, when the steam bath switch is turned on, the present invention discharges steam into the steam bath apparatus to maintain the indoor temperature at the appropriate temperature for the steam bath, and when the heating switch is turned on, the temperature is maintained at the appropriate heating temperature, and the steam is discharged into the steam bath apparatus. It enables bathing and showering under heating during winter, etc., and also allows access to the steam bathing device from within the bathroom.

Further, according to the second means, even if the steam bath device is located outside the bathroom, access to and from the steam bath device is performed within the bathroom.

Furthermore, by the third means, the bathroom heating switch is turned on to heat the walls and doors of the steam bath equipment with steam, and the surrounding bathroom air is heated by radiant heat, thereby circulating the indoor air and heating the bathroom. be.

Embodiments Hereinafter, embodiments of the bathroom apparatus of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, a bathroom 1, which is partitioned off from an adjacent room O etc. by a wall 2 and a door 3, has a bathtub 5 for bathing, a wash area 4 for washing the body, and a bathtub 5 for bathing. Hot water tap 6,
A hot water tap 7 is provided to the washing area 4, hot water produced by a water heater 8 is supplied via a hot water pipe 9, and a heating temperature control panel 1 is provided.
9, and when the heating switch (not shown) is turned on, the circulation fan 10 that circulates the air in the room and the steam generator 14 are operated, and a steam room 1 is also installed in the washing area 4.
1.

Next, as shown in an enlarged view in FIG. 3, the steam chamber 11 is made of a transparent or semi-transparent glass plate approximately 5 m thick, and has a wall surface 12 and a door 13 assembled with an aluminum frame or the like.
It is airtightly partitioned from the outdoors by the steam discharge port 16, and the steam discharged into the room generates a temperature of about 100°C, which is almost the same as the steam temperature in the surrounding area, and about 60°C, which is almost the appropriate temperature for a steam bath in the other parts. It becomes high temperature. In addition, a large amount of steam adheres to the indoor wall surface 12 and door 13 as dew water,
The water used and scattered in the washing area 4 of the bathroom 1 outside the room and the condensed water of the steam that evaporates from the hot water filled in the bathtub 5 and floats inside the room adhere. Against this high temperature and moisture, the wall surface 12 and door 1
3 shall have heat resistance and water resistance both inside and outside.

The steam chamber 11 also includes a steam temperature control panel 17 and a temperature sensor (not shown) for detecting the temperature inside the room, and
Two temperatures are personal preference: an appropriate temperature for a steam bath within the range of °C to 55 °C, and an appropriate temperature for heating while naked within the range of 35 °C to 38 °C, which is approximately close to body temperature below this temperature. It is equipped with a temperature setting section that can be selected with the button, and a steam bath switch, a steam room heating switch, etc. to perform these operations. Steam generation again! The steam produced in step 14 is supplied to the steam outlet 16 via the steam pipe 15, and the hot water produced in the hot water supply IR8 and supplied from the hot water supply pipe 9 and the room temperature water supplied directly from the water pipe (not shown) are supplied. Cold water is sprayed onto the bather M from the shower section 18.

In addition, even if the steam room 11 has a minimum size, it is desirable that the bather M has a space where the bather M can move his or her arms and legs a little while taking a shower in an upright position. Further, if the bathroom 1 is sufficiently large, the bathing space will be 2 Å or more, and a plurality of bathers can take a steam bath at the same time. Incidentally, in a narrow bathroom where even the above-mentioned minimum space cannot be secured in the bathroom 1, other embodiments described later must be used.

Next, a remote control panel 20 is installed in an adjacent room O outside the bathroom 1, and as shown in FIG.
9, a steam bath switch 70, a steam room heating switch 71, a bathroom heating switch 72, and a steam bath temperature setting section 7.
5. Heating temperature setting section 76 for the steam room and bathroom; in addition, ready lamps 77 and 78 that have reached the set temperatures for the steam bath and heating, and a temperature display board 73 for displaying each room temperature.
74 etc. to improve the operability of the device.

The operation of this embodiment with the above configuration will be explained to the user.

(A), i temperature and when taking a shower after the end (
(No normal bathing such as bathing in the bathtub 5) will be explained.

First, close the door 13 of the steam room 11 and open the remote control panel 20.
The steam bath switch 70 is turned on, and the temperature setting section 75 sets the room temperature to a desired temperature suitable for the body of the bather M. When the ON signal of the steam bath switch 70 is input to the steam generator 14, the steam generator 14 starts operating and generates steam, which is discharged into the steam room 11, and the indoor air, walls 12, and door 13.
etc., and the room temperature gradually rises. A temperature sensor detects this room temperature and displays it on a temperature display board 73 provided on the remote control panel 20, and when the set temperature is reached, a ready lamp 77 lights up. Therefore, the bather M can read the temperature shown on the temperature display Fi73 before the preparation is completed, or after the preparation is completed, enter the steam room 11 and take a steam bath.Please note that the room temperature cannot be changed during a five-person bath. The temperature is adjusted using the temperature setting section of the steam temperature control panel 17, and when discharging steam is to be stopped, the steam bath switch is turned off.

Next, when the bather M finishes the steam bath, the discharge of steam is stopped 17, and cold water is sprayed over the body from the shower section 1B to cool and wash the body, which has been heated to a high temperature by the steam heat and has a lot of sweat attached to it. Exit the steam room 11 and finish the bathing. Subsequent bathers repeat the same action, but from the second time onwards, the steam chamber 11 is preheated, so the preparation time is shortened.

Note 1. When the shower bath is performed in the washing area 4 outside the steam room 11 and steam discharge is continued, the steam room 11 is always maintained at the set temperature. Further, even if there are a plurality of bathers, there is no need for preparation time for bathing from the second time onwards, and there is an advantage that each bath can be done quickly. In addition, this method is optimal for a bathing method that strengthens the body's resistance to changes in temperature and cold by repeating steam bathing and cold water spraying (B), and involves both steam bathing and regular bathing (without heating the bathroom). Let me explain the case.

First, the bathtub 5G is filled with hot water and the steam chamber 11 is heated to the appropriate steam bath temperature in the same manner as in (A). Then, after this preparatory work is completed, the bather takes both baths in sequence.

Another method is to prepare for a normal bath first and prepare for a steam bath during the normal bathing process.If you do not have the intention of taking a steam bath at the beginning of the bath and wish to take a steam bath during the normal bath, you can use the steam bath. The steam bath may be operated using the steam temperature control panel 17 in the chamber 11. If this bathing operation were performed using a conventional device, it would be necessary to wipe the body covered with hot water from bathing once with a lotus towel and then move from the bathroom 1, but this device has the advantage that such operations are not necessary. have.

Furthermore, according to this embodiment, movement between the two chambers 1 and 11 is performed only through the door 13 of the steam chamber 11, and each operation can be switched quickly, including the above-mentioned cases and vice versa.
Moreover, it does not pass through the adjacent room 0, etc. In addition, as shown in the conventional example, movement between the two rooms 1 and 11 may cause sweat, etc. to drip onto the floor of the adjacent room O, staining it, and high-temperature hot air or steam may leak from the sauna room or steam room, leaving the bathroom outside. It will not cause damage to the walls or ceiling of other rooms, or cause mold or other signs of aging.

Furthermore, conventional sauna rooms are installed in an adjoining room outside the bathroom, such as a washroom, and are designed to have good insulation to prevent heat from escaping from walls, etc., and are constructed so that other people cannot see through your naked body while bathing. For this reason, only narrow windows made it possible to see through the interior and exterior.

Moreover, the bathers were confined in a small room and did not feel open.

However, in this embodiment, for example, the wall surface 12 and
Even if the steam chamber 11 is made transparent using synthetic resin material, glass, etc., the steam chamber 11 will not be seen through the bathroom 1, giving the illusion of being in the spacious bathroom 1, creating a sense of openness. It has a great effect on providing psychological comfort.

Next 1. Even for home use, multiple bathers, such as parents and children, may take a bath at the same time, but according to this example, it is possible to take a steam bath and a normal bath, both in completely different environments, at the same time. Compared to cases where bathing is used together, there is an advantage that neither bathing affects the other bathing. In addition, even in normal bathing operations, if another bather stops the discharge of steam and takes a shower in the steam room while the bather is washing his or her body in the washing area 4, even if the shower part 1 is a high-pressure shower. This has the advantage that the splashed water does not fall on the bather.

(C) In the case of steam bathing and normal bathing with heating, we will explain step 6.

BACKGROUND ART Conventionally, there has been no suitable heating method for heating a bathroom during cold times such as winter, and it has been common practice to take a cold bath. Therefore, in this embodiment, the steam chamber 1
1 is heated with steam to heat the bathroom 1 and provide a comfortable bathing experience.

That is, when the bathroom heating switch 72 of the remote control panel 20 is turned on and the set temperature of the bathroom 1 is set to a desired temperature from the heating temperature setting section 7, the steam generator 14 is operated and the steam is steamed. It is discharged into the chamber 11 and heated. Then, the wall surface 1 of the steam chamber 11 heated by the heat of the air
2. Steam room 11 due to radiation emitted from door 13
The surrounding air is heated.

On the other hand, a signal from the switch 72 causes the circulation fan 10 provided in the bathroom 1 to operate to circulate indoor air. As a result of this action, the room temperature in the bathroom 1 gradually rises and is displayed on the temperature display board 74, and when the set temperature is reached, the ready lamp 78 lights up.

In this way, when heating the bathroom 1, first heat the steam room 1.
1, the steam chamber 11 is automatically heated with steam, and the steam bath switch 70 does not need to be turned on or off.
Furthermore, when the set temperature is reached, the ready lamp 77 also lights up. In order to accelerate the heating rate of the bathroom 1, it is preferable to increase the set temperature of the steam bath, and the bathroom heating switch 7
2 is turned on, the control system built into the steam generator 14 automatically switches the set temperature to a high temperature. When entering the steam room 11 and taking a steam bath, if you turn on the steam bath switch on the steam temperature control panel 17 in the room, the set temperature will be canceled and the set temperature in the room will take priority. The optimum room temperature shall be selectable for each bather.

As described above, the steam chamber 11 emits radiant heat from its outer periphery to heat the surrounding air, and also heats the air by so-called conduction heat, which directly transfers heat to and heats the air in contact with the outer periphery.

This conductive heat is then transferred to the bathroom l generated by the circulation fan 10.
The convection of air inside the steam chamber 11 increases in proportion to the passage speed when passing around the outer periphery of the steam chamber 11. This passing speed has no direct relation to the convection speed in each part of the indoor air; in other words, it is sufficient to reach the maximum speed when passing around the outer circumference of the steam chamber 11. The purpose is to reduce the stagnation area on the outer circumferential surface where air does not move. Circulation EilO
The steam chamber 11 must be installed near the steam chamber 11, and the wind speed, air volume, and distribution of the wind flow must be set so that the air moves widely and at high speed around its outer periphery.

In this way, the bathroom 1 utilizes the steam room 11 used for the steam bath provided in the washing area 4, and releases the steam heat applied inside from the wide outer peripheral wall 12 and door 13 to the outside. While indoor air is circulated by a circulation fan 10 provided in the bathroom 1, a flow is created in the air on the outer circumferential surface of the steam chamber 11, heat is efficiently received from the steam chamber 11, and the indoor air is heated.

If the bathroom 1 is at a low temperature like in the past, the water in the bathtub 5 and the hot water used in the washing area 4 will evaporate, causing the walls of the bathroom 1 to evaporate.
However, when the bathroom 1 is heated, the surface of the wall 2 is also heated and heated, and the amount of condensed water adhering to the bathroom 1 decreases. As a result, the humidity in the bathroom 1 is reduced, and damage to each component attached or housed in the room due to moisture is reduced.

In addition, even if circulation [10 is not provided in the bathroom 1], the air around the outer circumference of the steam chamber 11 is heated mainly by radiant heat, and the indoor air causes convection due to natural circulation due to the difference in specific gravity with the air in other parts of the room. , the inside of the bathroom 1 is heated, but the circulation fan 1
It cannot be denied that the speed is lower than that of forced circulation using zero.

Furthermore, in the conventional method of heating the bathroom 1 by burying a hot water pipe in the mortar layer on the underside of the tiles in the washing area 4, first heating the floor surface and radiating the heat into the bathroom space, the floor surface was made of mortar and tiles, etc. Because it has a large heat capacity, heating speed was slow and efficiency was low.

However, in this embodiment, the method heats the indoor air which comes into contact with the body and has a small heat capacity, and the heating speed is fast, which is superior to the conventional method.

(D) The case of taking a shower bath with heating will be explained.

Conventionally, like the previous movement (C), showering was avoided in cold weather, and even if you wanted to wash your body to the extent of sweating lightly when you felt tired, it was difficult to do so in the bathroom. I was in a situation. However, in this embodiment, this can be done simply and quickly, and the details will be described below.

In other words, the steam room heating switch 71 on the remote control panel 20
When you turn on and set the temperature setting section 76 to your desired temperature,
A signal from the switch 71 or the like enters the steam generator 14, steam is discharged into the steam chamber 11, and when the room temperature reaches an appropriate temperature for heating, the ready lamp is lit on the 7th.

When the room is heated in this way, the bather can move to the steam room 11.
When taking a bath, the temperature is lower than when taking a steam bath, so there is little sweating effect, and the user can enjoy the hot water shower spray from the shower section 18 in the warm air.

It is possible to easily change this bathing operation and move on to another bathing operation. For example, if you want to switch to operation (A) steam bathing, turn on the steam bath switch 70 on the indoor steam temperature control panel 17. However, just by heating the body to a set temperature difference of about 5°C to 10'C, the body sweats and becomes a steam bath.

There are other bathing operations in addition to the bathing operations described above, but since they can be easily inferred from the above explanation of the operations, their explanation will be omitted.

Next, other embodiments shown in FIGS. 2 and 4 will be described.

A bathroom 21 located in one area of the residence and separated from an adjacent room 36 by a wall 22 and a door 23 includes a bathtub 25 for bathing, a washing area 24 for body washing, a hot water tap 26 to the bathtub 25, and a washing area 24.
It is equipped with a hot water tap 27 to supply hot water produced by a water heater 28 via a hot water pipe 29, and a heating temperature control panel 30.
When the heating switch (not shown) is turned on, the indoor air is circulated and steam is generated. 39 is operated, and an opening 41 is provided in a part of the wall 22, and the steam chamber 33, which has a sealed space formed by the wall 35 and the door 34, is airtightly connected to the outer periphery of the opening 41 of the wall 35 through the door 34. In addition, a steam room 33 is connected to the outside of the bathroom 21. The circulation fan 31 is installed on the inner wall of the bathroom directly above the door 34, and causes high-speed air to flow widely over the surface of the door 34.

Next, the steam chamber 33 is heated to a temperature of about 100°C, which is approximately close to the steam temperature in the surrounding area by the steam discharged into the room from the steam discharge port 37, and approximately 60°C, which is approximately close to the appropriate steam bath temperature in other parts. The temperature becomes high, and steam adheres to the inner wall 48 of the wall surface 35 and the door 34 as dew condensation. Furthermore, on the bathroom 21 side of the door 34, splashed water used in the washing area 24 and room-temperature steam evaporated from hot water filled in the bathtub 25, etc.
When the steam chamber 33 is not heated and the door 34 is at a low temperature, condensed water adheres to the door 34.

Therefore, the inner wall 48 of the steam chamber 33 and the door 34 have heat resistance and water resistance to the above-mentioned high temperatures, and the door 34 is constructed of a heat-resistant glass plate 44 with a thickness of about 5 m and a frame material 45 made of corrosion-resistant aluminum. . In addition, a heat insulating material 50 is installed inside the wall surface 35 facing the adjacent room 36 to prevent heat radiation to the adjacent room 36 and to prevent others from seeing the naked bather through the inner and outer walls 48.
49.

Next, as shown in an enlarged view of a part of the steam chamber 33 in FIG. A connecting metal frame 47 made of aluminum is attached to the frame 51 with fixing screws 54, and both contact parts 5 with the inner and outer walls 52 and 53 of the bathroom 21 are attached.
5.Fill 56 with sealant to make it airtight. The wall surface 35 of the steam chamber 33 has a heat insulating material 50 inside.
The outer walls 48 and 49 are in contact with the corner members 42 and supported by the metal frame 47, thereby maintaining airtightness with the adjacent room 36.

Further, the cushion material 46 is fitted into the protrusion 57 where the door 34 contacts the metal frame 47, and the door 34 is pressed against the cushion material 46 by a closing mechanism of the door 34 (not shown),
The steam room 33 and bathroom 21 are kept airtight.

Furthermore, the steam room 33 has the same indoor equipment as the steam room 11 described in the previous embodiment, and is also equipped with a remote control panel 20 shown in FIG. 5 outside the bathroom.

In this embodiment, unlike the previous embodiment, the steam room 33 is provided outside the bathroom 21, so the size of the bathroom 21 does not matter.
This method is particularly effective in the bathroom 21 where the washing area 24 has a narrow space. In addition, when the bathroom faces a wall that partitions the residence from the outside, the opening is provided in this wall surface and the steam room can be installed outside the residence, making it an excellent method for installation.

The operation of this embodiment with the above configuration will be explained below.

The bathing operation and the operating method of the bathing device in this embodiment are basically the same as in the previous embodiment, and only the heating specification of the bathroom 21 is different, so this point will be explained below.

To heat the bathroom 21, turn on the bathroom heating switch 72 on the remote control panel 20 and set the temperature to the desired room temperature using the temperature setting section 76. These signals enter the steam generator 39, and the steam generator starts. Steam is generated and discharged into the steam chamber 33 from the steam discharge port 38 via the trachea 40. Then, the room temperature of the steam chamber 33 gradually rises, this state is displayed on the temperature display board 73 of the remote control panel 20, and soon the steam chamber 33 reaches the appropriate temperature for a high temperature steam bath set in advance in the control system of the steam generator 39. reached and the steam bath is ready lamp 77
After that, the steam room 33 receives a signal from the temperature sensor built into the steam temperature control panel 37 inside the room, and the steam generation 8 starts.
The room temperature is maintained at the temperature set in the control system by adjusting the steam supplied from 139.

Meanwhile, the bathroom heating switch 72 is turned on 4, the circulation fan 3
1 operates to forcefully circulate the air in the bathroom 21.

Then, this indoor air flow is directed to the door 3 of the steam room 33.
4 Pass as widely and as fast as possible along the surface. At this time, since the door 34 is heated by indoor steam, the heat on the surface of the door 34 is transferred as conduction heat to the air that comes into contact with the surface of the door 34 and passes through, thereby heating the air. Further, since the door 34 has a higher temperature than the air in the bathroom, it emits radiant heat to the air side, and the air away from the surface of the door 34 is also heated. When the air passing through the surface of the door 34 heated by these two types of heat is circulated within the bathroom 21 by convection,
The air in the bathroom gradually rises in temperature, and in this state the remote control panel 20
is displayed on the temperature display board 73. When the set temperature is reached, the ready lamp 78 lights up, creating a comfortable bathing environment due to the heating effect.

Effects of the Invention As is clear from the above description, the present invention provides a steam bath that is installed inside the bathroom or on the outside of the bathroom wall, and that steam discharged into the steam bath is transferred to the bathroom by entering and leaving the steam bath from inside the bathroom. There is no leakage into the outside washroom, etc., and there is no possibility that the sweat generated in large quantities due to the steam bath will drip onto the floor of the washroom, etc. outside the bathroom, making it dirty. This device has various effects such as heating only the steam bathroom and making it possible to enjoy an economical and comfortable shower bath even in cold weather such as winter.
