Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea] (Industrial application field) The present invention relates to a shower room unit.

(Prior Art) A so-called shower room unit, in which a shower room is defined by receiving the lower part of an integrally molded side wall unit with a floor pan and covering the upper part with a ceiling booth, requires no time and effort on site construction. Because it is more convenient and refreshing than baths, etc., it has many loyal users.

Such shower room units are constructed to be watertight or airtight to prevent hot water, water vapor, etc. from leaking from the inside to the outside, but conventionally, they are used for purposes other than washing away sweat, dirt, etc. that adhere to the human body. Nothing happened.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) Another example of a club room space that needs to be watertight and airtight is a sauna room that is filled with water vapor.

Conventionally, if a shower room unit and a sauna room were built at the same time inside a building, two watertight and airtight room spaces would be created, which would require a large building area. Not only is this undesirable in terms of effective use of area, but
There was a problem in that many members configured to keep the interior watertight or airtight overlap.

(Means for Solving the Problems) The present invention to solve the above problems is to support the lower part of the side wall integrally molded in a U-shape in plan view with a floor pan, and cover the upper part with a ceiling booth to create a shower room. In the shower room unit, a rest chair is attached to the side wall with its tip facing approximately the center of the U-shaped shower room, and a steam outlet is provided at the bottom of the center of the side wall for spouting steam to the floor pan below. Established.

(Function) Since the shower chamber is U-shaped in plan view, the ejected steam starts from the spout and spreads to the center of the shower chamber in the form of ripples.

A person sitting on a rest chair with the top facing the center can effectively come into contact with the upper steam flow.

connected by.

Next, the steam generator 51 will be explained with reference to FIGS. 4 and 5.

FIG. 4 is a front view of the steam generator 51. FIG. 5 is a side view thereof.

As shown in the figure, the steam generator 51 has a box-shaped protrusion 55 provided at the lower part of one side wall 51a of a rectangular parallelepiped frame, and a control box 56 is placed on the protrusion 55. be. Further, the steam generator 51 has the steam outlet 52 and a water supply port 6 which is fixed to the other side wall 56b via a mounting piece 57 and connected to an internal tank 61 by a pipe means 59.
3 are provided.

The tank 61 has a heating part 61a which is arranged horizontally and has one end connected to the heater 65 in the protruding part 55 and the other end closed, and one end which is perpendicular to the heating part 61a and approximately in the center of the heating part 61a. a connecting portion 61b having an upper end connected to the discharge port 52; and a connecting portion 61b disposed parallel to the heating portion 61a, having one end connected to the connecting portion 61b and the other end having an attachment portion to the pipe means 59. 65, and each of these 61a, 61b, and 61c is cylindrical.

Control box 56 on the lower protrusion 55
Inside, there is a circuit (not shown) that opens and closes a water supply valve based on the water surface H position detected by a level switch 67 provided in the steam generating section 61c to keep the water surface H at a constant position, and a circuit (not shown) that keeps the water surface H at a constant position, and the heating section 61a. A circuit (not shown) and the like is built in to prevent excessive temperature rise in the tank 61 by starting and stopping the heater 65 based on the temperature detected by a temperature sensor 69 provided in the tank 61 .

The steam discharge port 52 is constructed by attaching a branch connection part 73 that branches in two directions to a mounting part 71 that protrudes from the upper end surface of the connection part 61b.
5 to the relief valve 77, and the other end 73a is connected to the steam outlet 9 through the piping 53.

Here, the structure of the attachment part of the steam outlet 9 attached to the shower room unit U is installed based on FIGS. 2 and 3.

FIG. 2 is a sectional view of the attachment part of the steam discharge port 9, and FIG. 3 is a diagram showing another embodiment thereof.

As shown in FIG. 2, the steam outlet 9 is provided with an opening 81 in the side wall 2 of the shower room unit U, and has a flange portion 83a at its tip through the opening 81.
The mounting part 85a of the mounting bracket 85 is attached to the joint 83 having a
The mounting bracket 85 is fixed by screwing in, and the cover 87 is fixed by a battle 88 to the portion of the mounting bracket 85 that projects into the shower room unit U.
Note that the pipe 53 connected to the steam generator 51 is screwed into the joint 83.

The mounting bracket 85 has a mounting part 85a having a hollow part 88 on its axis protruding from the center of the hexagonal main body 85b, and after passing a spacer 89 through the mounting part 85a,
The spacer 89 is screwed into the joint 83 through the opening 81, and the spacer 89 is held between the side wall 2 and the main body 85b.

Further, a steam outlet 90 that communicates with the hollow part 88 and opens downward is provided inside the main body 85b, and the steam supplied from the steam generator 51 via the joint 83, the piping 53, etc. The steam passes through the steam outlet 88 and is ejected into the shower room unit U from the steam outlet 90. In addition, the mounting bracket 85
The main body 85b is provided with a cover locking portion 85c on the opposite side of the mounting portion 85a, and the locking portion 85c is provided with a vertical through hole 93.

Further, the cover 87 has a shape that is approximately complementary to the portion of the mounting bracket 85 that protrudes into the shower room unit U, and has an open recess 87a below the steam outlet 90, and the cover 87 has a recess 87a that is open below the steam outlet 90. The parts fit together. The cover 87 aligns the through hole 93 provided in the locking part 85c of the mounting bracket 85 with the through hole 95 provided in the lower part of the locking part 85c of the cover 87, and the through holes 93, 95 It is fixed by screwing a bolt 88 into it.

Therefore, in FIG. 7, the steam ejected downward from the steam outlet 9 spreads in a ripple pattern as it travels through the shower room that also serves as a sauna room.

Further, as shown in FIG. 3, in another embodiment of the structure of the attachment part of the steam outlet 9, after passing the spacer 189 through the attachment part 185a which is longer than the first embodiment, the attachment part 85a is attached to the shower room unit U. Opening 181 and second spacer 195 provided in side wall 2
A locking member 1 having a flange portion 183a via
83 to fix the mounting bracket 185, and the mounting part 185 protruding rearward from the locking member 183 is screwed into the pipe 53 connected to the steam generator 51, but the same as in the first embodiment. Only the cover 187 is shown inside the shower room unit U of the spout 9.

According to the shower room unit U described above, the watertight and airtight interior of the shower room unit U can be used as a sauna, thereby saving space and greatly reducing the number of parts.

(Effects of the invention) As explained above, according to the invention, since a steam outlet is provided in the so-called shower room unit, a shower room and a sauna can be provided in the same equipment, and space can be saved at the installation location. In addition, the number of parts can be significantly reduced because many overlapping parts can be replaced with just one set.

Furthermore, we installed a rest chair on the side wall with its tip facing almost the center of the U-shaped shower room, and a steam outlet that spouted steam to the floor pan below was installed at the bottom of the center of the side wall, so the ejected steam would flow directly from the outlet. Starting from the steam, the steam spreads out to the center of the shower room in a ripple pattern, so a person sitting on the rest chair with its tip facing the center can be effectively exposed to the flow of steam.

It is also convenient to be able to take a shower immediately after using the sauna.
