Description

[Detailed description of the invention] Industrial application field This invention is mainly used in winter to prevent the cold inside the bathroom from being applied to bathers as much as possible. This invention relates to a bathroom heater that can be suitable for sick patients and the elderly.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Conventionally, in a domestic bathroom, a bathtub is constructed in a closed room with appropriate ventilation means, and the water in the bathtub is fed to a burner, which is a heating unit. Some methods are well-known, such as heating water by heating water and circulating it into the bathtub to maintain the appropriate temperature, or directly injecting hot water heated from a tap into the bathtub. Even if the bathroom is filled with hot water, the steam generated by the hot water will not raise the room temperature in the bathroom, and it will not be able to eliminate the coldness of the bathroom, especially when taking a bath in the winter. This is regrettable as it causes discomfort to those bathing in the first bath due to its coldness.

Furthermore, although it is preferable for heart disease patients and the elderly to have no temperature difference, that is, it is optimal to maintain a temperature at least equivalent to room temperature in the bathroom, there is still no dedicated heater. not developed,
The coldness of the bathroom and the coldness of my feet could only be relieved by soaking my body in the bathtub.

Problems to be Solved However, in the bathroom heater proposed by the present invention,
This is a heater for bathrooms that was developed as a result of intensive research in view of the various deficiencies of the conventional ones mentioned above.
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a bathroom heater that can pre-heat the inside of a bathroom, which is traditionally cold and cold, to the same level as room temperature, and that can be suitable for heart disease patients and the elderly when taking a bath. Although the heating function is achieved by connecting to the bathroom, it is highly safe against electrical leakage, and it also dries the humid bathroom and prevents the growth of mold, and is also useful for beauty and health. The purpose is to provide heaters.

Means for Solving the Problems In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, in the bathroom heater according to the present invention, the infrared lamp 1 electrically connected by the lead wire 6 is attached to a wall mounting bracket. At the same time as being suspended from the seat plate 2 having a
The bathroom heater is characterized in that the seat plate 2 is removably sealed with a transparent case 3 made of transparent acrylic resin that encloses an infrared lamp 1.

The specific configuration of the bathroom heater according to the present invention will be described below.

A is a bathroom equipped with a door D that can be opened and closed, a bathtub C, a heating unit E such as a gas burner, and other appliances necessary for a bathroom, and a heater B according to the present invention is installed in the ceiling 8 of the bathroom A. It is attached. The heater B may be attached to any wall surface in the bathroom A, but in reality, by installing it on the ceiling 8, it will warm the drainboards etc. installed in the bathroom A and also be useful when washing the body. It is convenient and does not get in the way.

Reference numeral 1 denotes an infrared lamp with an appropriate wattage, and this infrared lamp is equipped with a lead wire 6 leading out of the bathroom A, is electrically connected to an external power source, and is maintained at a constant temperature by a thermostat. It is configured as follows.

2 is a rectangular seat plate, for example, and the seat plate 2 is provided with an optional mounting fitting 7 for attaching it to the bathroom wall, and the infrared lamp 1 is attached to the seat plate 2. A mounting fixture 4 and a suspension fixture 5 for hanging are provided. Incidentally, if necessary, a reflecting plate 9 may be formed on the surface of the seat plate 2 on the infrared lamp 1 side.

Reference numeral 3 denotes a transparent case made of transparent acrylic resin with a bottom and an open top, and the open top periphery of the transparent case 3 is slightly bent inward and integrated with the seat plate 2. However, the structure is such that the fitting portion where the two come into contact is removably sealed and fixed via an arbitrary packing 10 or the like.

Effects of the Invention Thus, according to this invention, by installing the heater in the bathroom, for example on the ceiling, it is possible to moderately heat the cold bathroom in winter, and by maintaining the temperature in the bathroom at the same temperature as the room even when taking a first bath, it is possible to eliminate the temperature difference that is unsuitable for heart disease patients or the elderly.

By energizing the heater before taking a bath, it is possible to warm the drainboards installed in the bathroom and use the secondary heat to warm the feet. It has become possible to dispel the common belief that it does not heat up, and by using an infrared lamp covered with a transparent case made of transparent acrylic resin, there is a lack of sunbathing in the winter when daylight hours are short, so this is a win-win situation. By using this product, you will be exposed to infrared rays, which can produce excellent results for beauty and health maintenance.

Further, by providing packing around the periphery of the light-transmitting case, there is no leakage of electric current, and it is highly safe and convenient.

Furthermore, when used in the summer, it is a suitable and useful heater for bathrooms, as it can keep a humid bathroom dry in a short time and prevent the growth of mold and corrosion of pillars and walls due to moisture.
