Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Field of Application] The present invention relates to a bath purification device that is installed in a bath and circulates and purifies bath water to save bath water.

[Prior art and its problems]

Traditionally, it has been customary to use bath water once and then throw it away, but recently there has been a call for conservation of water resources, and in particular, as the amount of bath water consumed is excessive, it is desirable to reuse it. This is especially important for hot springs and bathhouses because of the difficulty of drying up resources and saving costs.

By the way, Jikko No. 37-26784, Jikko No. 55-
In order to achieve the above object, a purifier that is put into a bath to purify the bath water has already been proposed as in No. 46269. However, these purifiers have too simple a bath water circulation function and cannot completely purify the bath water. In particular, since it is not possible to remove the scum and slime that adhere to the inner walls of the bathtub, the bath water becomes contaminated again.

[Means for solving problems and their effects]

In order to make it possible to reuse the bath water, the present invention has devised a purification chamber that is submerged in the bath water.

That is, the purification chamber according to the present invention is first submerged almost in the center of the bathtub, and then the bath water is sucked into the built-in pump chamber through a brush pipe equipped with a brush, and then passed through a zigzag path. The bath water is filtered through a filter to purify it and then allowed to flow back into the bathtub.

With this structure, the present invention can purify the bath water by simply sinking the purification chamber of the present invention into the bathtub after brushing the bathtub wall with a brush.
It has the advantage of being reusable.

[Description of First Embodiment] The embodiment of the present invention shown in FIGS. 1 to 4 will be described below.

In Figures 1 to 3, 1: Purification chamber 2: Bathtub 3: A brush for brushing the inner wall of the tank, and its brush pipe 3a is connected to the pump chamber inlet of the purification chamber P to remove "scum" and "scum" scrubbed from the inner wall. "Slimy" is sucked into the purification chamber P.

4: Accommodates the pump and pumps bath water to the pump room entrance 4a
A pump chamber that sucks air from the pump and discharges air from the outlet 4b.

5a: The lower surface of the first overflow chamber 7 is formed, and the baffle plate 10
The first filter is installed at the bottom end.

5b: A final filter forming the bottom of the final overflow chamber 8, which is the baffle plate 1 together with the first filter 5a.
0 is attached to the lower end. Its mesh is finer than that of the first filter 5a.

6: Filter chamber formed below the first and final filters 5a and 5b.

7: Pump chamber 4, baffle plate 10, first filter 5
The first overflow chamber is surrounded by a.

8: A final overflow chamber separated from the first overflow chamber 7 by a baffle plate 10 and located above the final filter 5b.

9: An inlet for a bath water purifier such as Bath Water Wonder, which is bored in the ceiling of the first overflow chamber 7.

10: A baffle plate that partitions the first overflow chamber 7 and the final overflow chamber 8.

11: Purification chamber outlet As described above, the purification chamber of the present invention consists of the pump chamber 4, the first overflow chamber 7 formed above the bath 4 and equipped with the purification agent inlet 9, and the purification chamber separated by the baffle plate 10. It consists of a final overflow chamber 8 that communicates with the outlet 11, and the first overflow chamber 7 has a bottom surface that is connected to the first filter 5a.
The bottom of the final overflow chamber 8 is the final filter 5.
b, and the first overflow chamber 7 and the final overflow chamber 8 are the filter chambers 6 formed under the filters 5a and 5b.
Further, a brush pipe 3a of a brush 3 for brushing the inner wall surface of the bathtub 1 is communicated with a pump chamber inlet 4a.

The effect will be explained below.

First, when the purification chamber P of the present invention is submerged in the center of the bathtub 1 as shown in Fig. 3, the bath water flows through the pump chamber entrance 4a.
It enters the purification chamber P through the first overflow chamber 7, the filter 5a, the filter chamber 6, the filter 5b, the final overflow chamber 8, and returns to the bathtub 2 through the outlet 8.

While the bath water is circulating in the purification chamber P, a purifying agent such as Bath Water Wonder is mixed into the circulating bath water from the purifying agent inlet 9 in the first overflow chamber 7. As a result, hair, dirt, sand, scum, etc. in the bath water are purified by the purifying agent, and solid matter is removed by the filter 5a.
Only the purified bath water that is caught and remains in the purification chamber 1 enters the filter chamber 6. In the filter chamber 6, dirt, hair, and sand that have passed through the filter 5a are similarly caught by the filter 5b, and in the end, almost all of the solid content is removed.
Only the purified water flows back into the bathtub 2. In particular, since the purifying agent is introduced in the zigzag path formed by the baffle plate 10, the purifying effect is further improved.

In addition, a brush pipe 3a is connected to the pump chamber inlet 4a, and the brush 3 removes dirt attached to the inner wall of the bathtub 2.
The interior of the bathtub 2 is further purified by scrubbing dirt, slime, etc. and sucking these deposits into the pump chamber 4 with the brush pipe 3a.

Further, when the purification chamber 1 settles in a part approximately in the center of the bathtub 2, a circular convection of the bathwater occurs as shown in FIG. 3, and together with brushing of the inner wall of the brush 3, the bathwater in the bathtub 2 is uniformly sucked into the purification chamber 1 throughout. In this way, the inside of the bathtub 2 is purified.

[Effects of the invention] Since the bath water sucked into the purification chamber passes through the filter while following a zigzag path, the filtration effect is large and the bath water can be reused.

Since the purifying agent is introduced in the zigzag path just before the filter passage, the purifying effect of the bath water is further improved.

Since the brush 3 is attached to remove the dirt, slime, etc. attached to the inner wall of the bathtub, and introduce the dirt and slime into the purification chamber, the entire bathtub can be efficiently purified.
