Abstract

PURPOSE:To offer a steam discharge port which can blow out steam under the condition of reduced steam temperature by reducing the blowing out speed of steam, and at the same time conducting mixing through the introduction of room inside air into steam whose blowing out speed is thus reduced. CONSTITUTION:At a steam discharge port A, a branching off portion 2 which makes high temperature steam fed from a steam generator 1, diverge in plural sideway directions, is provided in a discharge port case 3, and a wall 7 which reduces the blowing out flow speed of steam in the blowing out directions of branching off steam made to diverge at the portion 2, is provided. A fan which introduces case outside air into steam whose speed is thus reduced, and mixes them, is equipped, and a discharge port 4 which discharges mixed steam mixed with air, is formed at the case 3, and constitution is completed.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a steam outlet such as in a sauna room, and more particularly to a technique for lowering the temperature of high-temperature steam from a steam generator to an appropriate temperature before discharging it.

0002

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a steam outlet for discharging steam in a sauna room sprays high-temperature steam onto the floor surface to diffuse the high-temperature steam within the room and lower the temperature.

0003

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, with such a structure, since high-temperature steam is sprayed onto the floor surface, the floor surface becomes too hot and there is a risk of getting burned if you put your feet on this area. There were problems such as the surface becoming discolored or deteriorating due to long-term use. Therefore, it is possible to use a fan to blow air and mix it with the surrounding low-temperature air to lower the temperature, but the steam blowing speed is high and it is difficult to achieve good mixing. As a result, the bathroom becomes cooler underfoot, and in this respect, there is also a problem in that it is difficult to properly blow out steam.

[0004] The present invention aims to solve these problems, and its purpose is to reduce the speed of blowing out steam and introduce indoor air into the steam whose blowing speed has been reduced to mix it. To provide a steam discharge port capable of blowing out steam at a lower temperature.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems] The steam discharge port of the present invention is provided with branch portions 2 in a discharge port case 3 for branching high-temperature steam from a steam generator 1 into a plurality of horizontal directions.
A barrier 7 is provided to reduce the flow velocity of the steam in the direction in which the branched steam is blown out at the branching part 2, and a fan 6 is provided to introduce and mix air outside the case into the decelerated steam. It is characterized by being formed with a discharge port 4 for discharging mixed steam mixed with air.

[0006]

[Function] In this way, the branching section 2 that branches the high temperature steam from the steam generator 1 into multiple horizontal directions is provided in the discharge port case 3, and the branching section 2 branches the steam in the blowing direction. A barrier 7 is provided to reduce the blowout flow velocity, a fan 6 is provided to introduce and mix air outside the case into the decelerated steam, and a discharge port 4 is provided to discharge mixed steam mixed with air into the discharge port case 3.
As a result, the high-temperature steam from the steam generator 1 is branched at the branching part 2, and is hit against the barrier 7 to reduce the blowout speed. Air from the outside of the discharge port case 3 is introduced and mixed, and steam and air are mixed appropriately and discharged at an appropriate temperature to avoid burns and deterioration of the floor surface. It is.

[0007]

[Embodiment] The steam outlet A of the present invention is installed in a bathroom such as a sauna room, and a plurality of high-temperature steams from the steam generator 1 are supplied in the outlet case 3 of the steam outlet A in a horizontal direction. A branch section 2 is provided which branches into. The branch portion 2 is formed by horizontally suspending a short cylinder 8 in communication with the tip of an introduction cylinder 9 into which high-temperature steam from the steam generator 1 is introduced. The left and right side walls 5 of the discharge port case 3 serve as barriers 7, and the high-temperature branched steam branched at the branch part 2 collides with the barrier 7, so that its flow velocity can be greatly reduced.

Further, a partition wall 10 is provided inside the discharge port case 3 at a middle portion between the left and right sides thereof, and partitions the inside of the discharge port case 3 into left and right sides. A fan 6 is arranged above each space partitioned by a partition wall 10, and when the fan 6 is operated by driving a motor 12, a slit-shaped introduction port 11 formed above the discharge port case 3 is provided. Room air is introduced from the bathroom to mix the hot steam, which has already been slowed down, with the air inside the bathroom.

A large number of slit-shaped discharge ports 4 are formed in the lower part of the discharge port case 3, through which high-temperature steam and external air are mixed and the steam, which has been cooled down to an appropriate temperature, can be discharged into the bathroom. It's like this. A motor 12 that drives the fan 6 is also held in the discharge port case 3. Thus, high-temperature steam from the steam generator 1 is branched at the branch part 2, and is applied to the side wall 5 as a barrier 7 to reduce the blowout speed, and the fan 6 is operated to feed the high-temperature steam with the reduced flow speed. Air from outside the discharge port case 3 is introduced and mixed, and the steam and air are mixed appropriately and discharged at an appropriate temperature, thereby avoiding burns and deterioration of the floor surface. In such a case, in the present invention, instead of discharging low-temperature steam from the beginning, the blowing speed of high-temperature steam is reduced, air is mixed with it in the bathroom to lower the temperature, and this is then discharged into the bathroom. It is.

Effects of the Invention As described above, in the present invention, a branching section for branching high-temperature steam from a steam generator in a plurality of horizontal directions is provided in the discharge port case, and the branched steam is blown out in the direction of the branched steam at the branching section. A barrier is provided to reduce the flow rate of steam blowing out, a fan is provided to introduce and mix air outside the case into the decelerated steam, and a discharge port is formed in the discharge port case to discharge mixed steam mixed with air. , high-temperature steam from the steam generator is branched at a branch part, and the blowing velocity is reduced by hitting a barrier, and air from outside the discharge port case is introduced into the reduced-flow velocity of the high-temperature steam by operating a fan. There is an advantage in that it is possible to avoid burns and deterioration of the floor surface by mixing the steam and air appropriately and discharging the mixture at an appropriate temperature. In other words, the present invention is characterized in that it uses high-temperature steam rather than low-temperature steam and effectively lowers the temperature to an appropriate level.
