The bath was designed so that bathers could take a shower.

(Problems to be solved by the invention) However, since the shower nozzle attached to this type of conventional device has a conical fountain flow shape, the fountain area is generally relatively small. . Therefore, in the conventional device, a large number of shower nozzles are provided in order to shower the whole body of the bather.

As a result, the conventional device increases the number of nozzles used,
Since the cost of parts, the cost of assembly, etc. have increased, there has been a disadvantage that the price of the device itself is high.

The present invention is proposed in order to eliminate such disadvantages of the conventional device of this type.

Therefore, the technical problem of the present invention is to provide a panel-shaped shower device formed so that a bather can take a shower to the whole body without increasing the number of shower nozzles, and the product cost of the device is low. is there.

(Means for Solving the Problem) The present proposal adopts the following technical means in order to solve such a problem.

That is, the device of the present invention is configured such that the injection port 2 connected to the ejection port 2a is provided at the upper and lower positions on the left and right sides of the front surface of the device body 1 formed in a panel shape.
The shower nozzle 2 is formed in the shape of a hollow elliptical cone in which b is open in a divergent manner toward the front, and the upper shower nozzle 2A has a long axis 1 of the opening surface 2c of the injection port 2b that is inclined upward toward the outside of the apparatus main body 1. The lower shower nozzle 2B is arranged such that the long axis 1 is inclined downward toward the outside of the apparatus main body 1, whereby the shower nozzle 2 in the upper and lower positions is provided.
However, the long axis l of the opening surface 2c of the injection port 2b is arranged in a state in which they are inclined in opposite directions.

A knee nozzle 10 for showering the bather's knee is preferably provided. In this case, the knee nozzle 10 is formed in a hollow elliptical cone shape in which a nozzle 2b connected to the outlet 2a is opened forward and widened, and a major axis 1 of an opening surface 2c of the nozzle 2b is arranged horizontally. It is set up.

(Operation of the Invention) Since the present invention has such a configuration, from the shower nozzles 2 arranged at the upper and lower positions on the front left and right sides of the apparatus main body 1,
Hot water spreads like a fan and is ejected. In this case, the shower nozzle 2 at the upper and lower positions has the opening surface 2c of the injection port 2b.
Since the long axes 1 of the nozzles 2 are arranged so as to be inclined in the directions opposite to each other, hot and cold water sprayed from these nozzles 2 is
The bather's body is hung from the left and right, so that the bather can take a shower to every corner of the body.

When the above-mentioned knee nozzle 10 is provided at the center of the lower front surface of the apparatus body 1, the bather can take a shower directly on the knee with the hot and cold water sprayed from the nozzle 10 in a fan shape. Is something that can be done.

(Embodiment) A preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Reference numeral 1 denotes an apparatus main body formed in a panel shape. The apparatus main body 1 is used by standing upright in a shower room or the like so as to form a side wall of a shower room or a bathroom. The apparatus main body 1 of this embodiment is formed such that the periphery of the front surface is projected forward as shown by an inclined surface 1a which is formed in a divergent shape toward the front of the apparatus main body 1.

Reference numeral 2 is the inclined surface 1a on the left and right sides of the front surface of the apparatus body 1.
It is a shower nozzle provided at the upper and lower positions of. The shower nozzle 2 is, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4,
The injection port 2b connected to the discharge port 2a is formed in the shape of a hollow long cone that opens forward toward the front. 2A is an upper shower nozzle. In this nozzle 2A, the major axis l of the opening surface 2c of the injection port 2b is arranged outward of the apparatus main body 1 in an upwardly inclined shape. 2B is a lower shower nozzle. In the nozzle 2B, the major axis 1 is arranged outward of the apparatus main body 1 in a downwardly inclined shape. In the case of this embodiment, the shower nozzles 2A and 2B are arranged in such a manner that they are inclined in opposite directions so that the extension lines of the long axis 1 intersect at the substantially central portion of the front surface of the apparatus body 1. There is.

At the center of the upper end of the front surface of the apparatus body 1, a nozzle 3 for pouring hot water and a squall nozzle 4 for spouting rain are arranged in parallel, and a nozzle 5 for a foot shower is arranged at the center of the lower end. It is set up. Reference numeral 6 denotes a pair of left and right mist shower nozzles disposed on the inclined surface 1a above the shower nozzle 2. In addition, in order to control the supply of hot and cold water to each hot water outlet pipe 8, hot water and hot water at a set temperature are supplied to the hot water from the hot and cold water mixing valve 7 arranged on the back surface of the apparatus main body 1 to each of such nozzles. The on-off valve 9 is provided.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described.

In the device of the present invention, when the hot and cold water adjusted to the set temperature by the hot and cold water mixing valve 7 is supplied to the shower nozzle 2, the hot and cold water is guided from the discharge port 2a to the jet port 2b, and then from this jet port 2b to the fan shape. And is ejected (Fig. 1,
(See the broken line in Fig. 2). In this case, the nozzle 2 has a nozzle 2b.
Since the major axis l of the opening surface 2c of the device is arranged on both the left and right sides of the front surface of the device body 1 in a state in which the major axis l is inclined in the opposite directions, the hot and cold water ejected in a fan shape is applied to the body of the bather. From the left and right, it takes a crossover, so that the bather can take a shower to every corner of the body.

In the above process, in the device of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 5, for example, the knee nozzle 10 for showering the bather's knee may be provided at the center position of the lower front surface of the device body 1. In this case, like the shower nozzle 2 of the above example, the knee nozzle 10 is formed into a hollow long conical shape in which the injection port 2b connected to the discharge port 2a is opened forward and wide. Further, in this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, in the knee nozzle 10, the nozzle hole 2b has the major axis l of the opening surface 2c thereof horizontal, and is slightly slanted upward. It is arranged facing. Therefore, the hot and cold water spreads out in a fan shape obliquely upward as shown in the drawing.

The number of the knee nozzle 10 is not limited to one, but may be, for example, the seventh nozzle.
As shown in the figure, two pieces may be arranged side by side.

Further, the nozzle 10 may be arranged so as to face downward if the long axis 1 of the opening surface 2c of the injection port 2b is horizontal (see FIGS. 7 and 8A). That is, this nozzle 10
The number and orientation of the baths are arbitrary, and the point is that it is only necessary to be able to shower the bather's knees.

(Effects of the Invention) As described above, in the device of the present invention, the shower nozzles formed as described above are provided at the upper and lower positions on the left and right sides of the front surface of the device body, and the upper nozzle has the long axis of the opening surface of the injection port as the device. The nozzles are arranged on the outside of the main body so as to be inclined upward, and the lower nozzles are arranged so as to be inclined downward.

Therefore, if the device of the present invention is used, the jets from the upper left and right nozzles will hit the lower parts, so not only will the droplets not hit the face of the bather, but also the hot and cold water spouted from the above nozzles For example, the body of the bather can be showered without additional shower nozzles from the left and right, and the device itself can be provided at a low cost because the number of shower nozzles is smaller than in the conventional example. It has an excellent effect.

When the knee nozzle for showering the bather's knee is provided at the central position of the lower part of the front surface of the apparatus body as described in claim 2, the whole body of the bather can be showered. It is possible to improve the feeling of bath water.
