Description
【発明の詳細な説明】 (産業上の利用分野) 本発明は風呂装置に関するものである。The present invention relates to a bath device.
(従来の技術) 家庭用等の従来の風呂装置に於ける浴槽の水位は、そこ
に入る人により左右されて上下する。(Prior Art) The water level of a bathtub in a conventional bath device for home use or the like fluctuates depending on the person entering the bath device.
従って、水位が高い状態で浴槽内に入ると、湯が浴槽の
上部から溢れ、この溢れた湯は無駄となる。このため浴
槽に湯を入れる場合には、その水位に気を使う必要があ
り、これを怠ると無駄が生じていた。また水位は体格に
よって左右され、体格の大きい人が入浴した後は水位が
低下するので、次に入浴する人は足し湯をしたり、低い
水位に甘んじなければならなかった。Therefore, if the water enters the bathtub at a high water level, the hot water overflows from the upper part of the bathtub, and this overflowing hot water is wasted. Therefore, when pouring hot water into the bathtub, it is necessary to pay attention to the water level, and if this is not done, there is waste. Also, the water level depends on the physique, and the water level drops after a person with a large physique takes a bath. Therefore, the next person to bathe had to add hot water or settle for a lower water level.
そこで溢れた湯を貯湯用タンクに回収して、再び浴槽内
に還流させるように構成した循環式の風呂装置(例えば
実開昭49-5539号公報参照)も提案されている。Therefore, a circulation type bath device (see, for example, Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 49-5539) is also proposed in which overflowed hot water is collected in a hot water storage tank and is returned to the bathtub again.
(発明が解決しようとする課題) しかしながら従来のこのような方式の風呂装置では、浴
槽から貯湯用タンクへの湯の回収はパイプや単なる樋状
の回収部材等により行っているので、湯の回収量を大き
く構成すると、人が浴槽に入って水位が上昇した場合、
湯が一気に貯湯用タンクに流れ込むため、貯湯用タンク
内の空気の排出により湯が逆流したり、不快な音がした
りというような不都合が発生し易い。逆に、湯の回収量
が十分でないと、回収部材では全て回収できなくなり、
浴槽の上縁から溢れてしまうという不都合が発生する。(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) However, in the conventional bath device of such a system, since the hot water is collected from the bathtub to the hot water storage tank by a pipe or a simple gutter-shaped collecting member, the hot water is collected. If you configure a large amount, when a person enters the bathtub and the water level rises,
Since the hot water flows into the hot water storage tank at once, it is easy to cause inconveniences such as backflow of hot water due to discharge of air from the hot water storage tank and an unpleasant sound. On the contrary, if the amount of hot water collected is not enough, the collection member cannot collect all of it,
The inconvenience of overflowing from the upper edge of the bathtub occurs.
更に従来の上述したような方式の風呂装置では、湯の回
収、還流機構が必ずしも美観等に反映されていない。Furthermore, in the conventional bath device of the above-mentioned type, the collection and return mechanism of the hot water is not necessarily reflected in the aesthetics.
本発明はこのような課題を解決することを目的とするも
のである。The present invention aims to solve such problems.

流経路5を設けたものである。(Means for Solving the Problem) The means for solving the above-mentioned problem will be described with reference to the drawings showing an embodiment. Except for the entrance / exit location 12, a wide gutter-shaped hot water recovery path 2 is constructed, and the hot water recovery path 2 is also provided.
The partition wall 14 between the bathtub body 13 and the bathtub body 13 is provided with the overflow notch 11 having the gently inclined portion 15, and the communication port 6 to the hot water storage tank 3 is provided on the downstream side of the hot water recovery path 2 to store hot water. A reflux path 5 having a pump 4 for refluxing hot water from the water tank 3 to the bath 1 is provided.
以上の構成に於いて、溢水用切欠部11は複数個所に構成
することができる。In the above structure, the overflow notch 11 can be formed in a plurality of places.
(作用) 以上の構成に於いて、人は浴槽1の上縁の一部に設けた
出入用個所12から出入することにより、幅広の樋状の湯
回収径路2が邪魔とならずに、容易に浴槽1に入った
り、浴槽1から出たりすることができる。(Operation) In the above-described structure, a person can easily enter and exit the entrance / exit point 12 provided at a part of the upper edge of the bathtub 1 without causing the wide gutter-shaped hot water recovery path 2 to get in the way. You can enter and leave bathtub 1.
人が浴槽本体部13内に入り水位が上昇すると、浴槽本体

タンク3に一時的に貯湯される。そしてこの貯湯タンク
3内の湯は、ポンプ4により還流経路5を流れて再び浴
槽1内に還流するため、溢水した湯は無駄とはならな
い。When a person enters the bathtub body portion 13 and the water level rises, the hot water in the bathtub body portion 13 overflows through the overflow notch 11 and flows into the hot water recovery path 2, where it flows and flows out from the communication port 6. Then, hot water is temporarily stored in the hot water storage tank 3. The hot water in the hot water storage tank 3 flows through the reflux path 5 by the pump 4 and flows back into the bathtub 1 again, so that the overflowed hot water is not wasted.
このため本発明に於いては、浴槽1の水位を常時高く溢
水する水位に維持することができ、人が浴槽1に入る際
に溢水することにより非常に満足感に溢れる入浴を行な
うことができる。Therefore, in the present invention, the water level of the bathtub 1 can be constantly maintained at a high overflowing water level, and when a person enters the bathtub 1, the water level can be overflowed with great satisfaction. .
溢水用切欠部11は緩傾斜部分15を有する形状であるた

湯が一気に貯湯用タンク3に流れ込まないので、タンク
3内の空気の排出による不快な音の発生も防げ、幅広の
樋状の湯回収経路2を流れる湯の流れを楽しむことがで
きる。Since the overflow notch 11 has the shape having the gently sloping portion 15, the width in which the hot water overflows becomes wider as the water level rises. Therefore, when a person enters the bathtub and the water level rises, a small amount of hot water initially overflows from the narrow width portion, and the overflow amount also increases as the width of the overflow water gradually increases. In this way, the hot water overflows from the bathtub body 13 through the overflow notch 11 to the hot water recovery path 2 relatively slowly, so that the hot water does not overflow to the outside of the hot water recovery path 2 due to the force, and Since it does not flow into the hot water storage tank 3 all at once, it is possible to prevent the generation of unpleasant noise due to the discharge of air in the tank 3, and to enjoy the flow of hot water flowing through the wide gutter-shaped hot water recovery path 2.
(実施例) 以上の本発明の実施例を説明すると、上述した還流の制

の還流制御を自動的に行なうことができる。(Embodiment) Explaining the embodiment of the present invention as described above, the above-described reflux control can be easily performed by providing the overflow water detection means 7 in the hot water storage means 3. For example, when hot water is introduced into the hot water storage means 3 and is detected by the detection means 7, it is possible to detect overflow water, that is, a person has entered the bathtub 1, and based on such detection, a predetermined value is determined. The reflux control can be automatically performed.

Is configured above the bathtub 1. In the latter case, the flow of the refluxed hot water is reminiscent of a hot spring bath by constantly returning the hot water during bathing, which can further enhance satisfaction and, in the former case, bubbles in the reflux section 8b. It is possible to further enhance the feeling of satisfaction when taking a bath by configuring the generating part. Of course, it is also possible to provide both of the reflux units 8a and 8b and operate them appropriately. The hot water lost from the reflux system due to the first hot water supply or use of hot water in the bathtub 1,
The hot water supply device 9 or the like may be appropriately replenished, and the hot water temperature may be maintained by using the hot water supply device 9 or may be additionally heated by a bath pot 10 or the like provided as needed to maintain an appropriate temperature.
