Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide a jet stream type bath which can stimulate effective pressure points over a wide range from the back to the buttocks. CONSTITUTION:This unit is equipped with a bathtub 1, sucking port 18 provided at the bathtub 1 to suck cold water or hot water, and plural jetting-out ports 2 vertically arranged to jet-out jet streams while mixing air led from air flow-in ports. A pump 17 is provided to suck cold water or hot water from the sucking port 18 and to jet it out of the jetting-out ports 2, and switching ports 5 are provided to selectively switch the flow of cold water or hot water to the plural jetting-out ports 2. Thus, the jetting-out ports to jet-out jet streams are vertically switched by the switching ports, the effective pressure points can be stimulated over the wide range from the back to the buttocks of a bathing person, and the bathing person can be satisfied.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a jet bath device for achieving a comfortable bath.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As shown in FIG. 4, a conventional jet bath apparatus has a structure in which a jet stream 22 containing bubbles is blown out from a jet outlet 21 having an air inlet 20 provided in a bath 1. With this configuration, the stimulation of the jet stream and the bubbles improves the circulation of blood of the bather and makes the bathing comfortable.

[0003]

However, in the above-mentioned structure, the stimulation by the jet and the bubbles has the effect of improving the circulation of the blood of the bather, but the position of the jet hitting the body can hardly be changed, which is sufficient. I was not satisfied.

[0004]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention provides a bathtub and a vertical direction for ejecting a jet by mixing water in the bathtub or gas introduced from an air inlet into the bath. A plurality of spouts, a suction port for sucking water or hot water, a pump for spouting the water or hot water sucked from the suction port from the spout, and a water or hot water spouting to the plural spouts And a switching port for selectively switching the order of the flows.

[0005]

With the above structure, the jet port for jetting the jet flow is switched up and down by the switching port to stimulate a wide range of pots from the back of the bather to the hips.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. In FIG. 1, 1 is a bathtub, 2 is a jet outlet provided in the bathtub, and a plurality of jet outlets are arranged in the vertical direction as shown in the drawing, each having a water inlet 3 and an air inlet 4. Reference numeral 5 denotes a switching port, as shown in detail in FIG. 2, a cover 6, a plurality of water communication passages 7 provided in the cover, a water inlet 8 and a hollow that rotates in the cover 6. Of the rotating body 9 and a plurality of holes 10 provided in the rotating body 9 and at positions corresponding to the plurality of water communication passages 7 (the holes are formed at 90 ° offset from each other). .), An opening 11 formed corresponding to the water inlet 8 (this opening is formed around the entire circumference except for the supporting portion 11a), and a rotary knob 12. Reference numeral 13 is an air adjusting port, which has a plurality of air inlets 14, and an air adjusting knob 15 adjusts the amount of air. Reference numeral 16 is an introduction pipe for guiding water from the pump, 17 is a pump, 18 is a water suction port, and 19 is a suction introduction pipe to the pump.

In the above structure, the water sucked from the suction port 18 and sent from the pump 17 passes through the introduction pipe 16 and enters the switching port 5 from the water inlet 8. Then, this water enters the hollow rotating body 9 through the opening 11. The water that has entered the rotating body 9 flows out from the plurality of holes 10 where it coincides with the water communication passage 7. At this time, since the holes 10 are opened by being shifted by 90 °, the holes 10 flow into the communication passage 7 in order from the top according to the rotation of the knob 12. The flow that has entered the communication passages 7 enters the ejection ports 2 that are connected to the respective communication passages 7, and mixes with air to be ejected. At the position shown in FIG. 2, the gas is ejected from the uppermost ejection port.
Further, the air flow is sucked from the portion of the air control knob 15 and is sent to the respective jet ports.

As described above, as shown in FIG. 3, according to the rotation of the rotary knob 12, the jet port 2 at an arbitrary position from top to bottom.
It is possible to eject a jet stream from.

[0009]

As is apparent from the above description, a plurality of jet outlets arranged in a bathtub arranged in the up-down direction to mix the gas introduced from the air inlet and jet a jet, and a suction inlet for sucking water or hot water. And a pump that sucks water or hot water from the suction port and ejects it from the ejection port, and a switching port that selectively switches the order of the flow of water or hot water to the plurality of ejection ports Switch the jet outlet that spouts jets up and down by port,
It is possible to stimulate a wide range of vases from the back of the bather to the buttocks. Therefore, the bather can obtain sufficient satisfaction. In addition, by selectively switching the jet flow through the switching port, sufficient strength can be obtained as compared with simultaneous jetting.
