Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (1) Industrial Application Field The present invention relates to a seat for a sauna bath such as a home sauna.

(2) Conventional Technology Conventionally, as a heater support of this type of seat, for example, one in which a heater is supported in a metal frame body having an opening on the front surface is generally known.

(3) Problems to be Solved by the Invention Since the conventional heater support is made of metal, there are problems that it is heavy and has a large heat conductivity, and the heat retaining effect is insufficient. there were.

An object of the present invention is to solve these problems, and to provide a sauna bath seat that is lightweight, has strength, has a sufficient heat retaining effect, and has high thermal efficiency.

(4) Means for Solving the Problems In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention forms a U-shaped frame body having a front opening by a plate body formed by mixing shirasu and fiber reinforcement in cement. At the same time, a strip-shaped plate is fixed to the upper surface of the frame body, and a plate-shaped heater is provided in the frame body with its heat generation surface inclined obliquely upward.

(5) Action Since the shirasu mixed in the plate body of the U-shaped frame body is a granular body having a hollow portion containing air, the shirasu has a heat retaining effect by the heating of the heater, and efficient heating can be performed. Also, due to the fiber reinforcing material mixed in the plate body, the plate body is tough against bending stress, compressive stress, etc., thus forming a strong support,
Further, since a plate-shaped heater is provided in a U-shaped frame body having an opening at the front and a belt-shaped plate fixed to the upper surface, the heat generation surface of the plate-shaped heater is inclined upward, so that the heat from the heater is generated by the frame Of the person who mainly faces the front opening and the strip, and thus the upper half of the body of a person sitting in a seat where heat is difficult to reach in a sauna bath has a higher temperature than the upper half of the body, and thus promotes general sweating.

(6) Embodiment An embodiment of the sauna bath seat according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

(1) shows a heater support, and the heater support (1) comprises a U-shaped frame body (4) composed of plate bodies (3) ... (3) on both side surfaces and a back surface as shown in FIG. , These plates (3) ...
(3) is cement (3a) and volcanic ash soil (3)
b), glass fiber (3c) as a fiber reinforcement and water are mixed to form a flat plate, and the cement (3a), shirasu (3b), glass fiber (3c) and water have a mixing ratio of 1 : 1.5: 0.06: 0.3 is preferable. Since the shirasu (3b) mixed in the plate body (3) is a small-diameter granular body having a hollow portion containing air, the air in the hollow portion has a heat retaining effect, and the amount of the cement (3a). Since the shirasu (3b) is mixed in a larger amount, the plate body (3) can be made lightweight. Furthermore, since the glass fiber (3c) is appropriately mixed in the plate body (3), compression,
Bending and other strengths can be increased, insulation is good, and cracks do not occur during use.

Further, (2) shows a heater, which is composed of cement (2a), volcanic ash soil (2b), glass fiber (2c) which is a fiber reinforcement and water as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4. Are mixed to form a plate-like body, in which nichrome wires and other heating wires (2d) are embedded in a mesh shape, and a heating surface is obliquely upward between the both side surfaces of the U-shaped frame body (4). It is installed so as to be inclined.

Further, as shown in FIG. 5, rod-shaped bodies (5) ... (5) made of wood or the like are fixed to the front surface of the frame body (4) in a horizontal striped pattern, and the upper surface of the frame body (4) has a cypress and a cedar. The strip-shaped plates (6) ... (6) made of wood, etc. were fixed.

Thus, the sauna bath seat (7) thus obtained is installed in the home sauna (8) as shown in FIG. 6 and used while controlling the temperature with a thermostat, so that it takes 20 to 30 minutes. The room temperature is 80 ° C., and the temperature distribution inside the home sauna (8) is 80 ° C. at the front part A of the sauna bath seat, 70 ° C. at the upper part B of the sauna bath seat, and 65 ° C. at the ceiling C part. You can enjoy a comfortable sauna bath.

Although glass fiber is used as the fiber reinforcing material in the above-mentioned embodiment, the material is not limited to this, and a reinforcing material such as steel fiber may be used.

It is also possible to provide a fan for generating warm air in the sauna bath seat (7) for heating with warm air.

(7) Effect of the Invention Thus, according to the sauna bath seat of the present invention, the plate body on each side of the U-shaped frame body which supports the heater is formed by mixing cement, shirasu and fiber reinforced material. As a result, the shirasu has a heat-retaining effect to provide an energy-saving type sauna bath seat, is lightweight, has mechanical strength due to the fiber reinforced material, and the front side with a belt-shaped plate fixed on the top is open. Since the plate-shaped heater is provided in the U-shaped frame with the heating surface inclined obliquely upward, the heat from the heater is mainly directed to the front opening of the frame and the strip plate. Thus, generally, in a sauna bath, the lower half of the body of a person who sits in a seat where heat is difficult to reach becomes hotter than the upper half of the body, and therefore, it has the effect of promoting general sweating and enjoying a comfortable sauna bath.
