Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a hot water stirring device installed at the outlet of a bathtub having a hot water outlet on the wall surface.

Conventionally, the spout of this type of bathtub is covered with a mushroom-like member, and hot water is spouted from around the spout.

However, with this method, the boiling water flows out without being stirred, so only the area around the spout is extremely hot.Moreover, when refilling the hot water into the bathtub, the hot water is poured into the reservoir, so it is difficult to pour boiling water. It is difficult to recognize the presence or absence of water, and therefore there is a risk of burns, especially when infants take a bath.

The present invention was developed in view of the above points, and the hot water from the spout is stirred together with the stored water while flowing into the bath pot, and the stored water is checked to see if the hot water is flowing in or not. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a stirring device that is devised so that it can be easily visually observed from above the hot water.

Hereinafter, one embodiment of the present invention will be specifically described based on the drawings.

In FIG. 1, 10 indicates a bath pot, and 12 indicates a TJF stirring device.

In this bath, water is boiled in another place using gas, etc., and the boiled water is poured into the hot water spout 1 installed on the side wall of the bathtub.
It is a method in which the water is poured into the pot from step 4.

As shown in FIG. 2' and FIG. 3, the stirring device includes an impeller 16 that is rotated by the hot water poured out from the spout 14, and an impeller 16 that supports the impeller and is connected to the spout 14. A support member 18 for fixing the impeller is provided.

The impeller 16 includes a plurality of blade plates 20 provided radially in the circumferential direction of the hot water spout 14, and a disk 22 to which these blade plates are fixed and rotates together with the blade plates.

The disk faces the spout 14, and the blade plate 20 is fixed to the rear surface on the spout side.

The vane plate 20 is desirably configured to have a shape curved in the radial direction as shown in the second figure, but it may also be formed in other shapes such as a screw shape.

Also suitable for the spout side of the impeller! A donut-shaped disk 24 is provided which is fixed to the blade plate.

A bearing 26 is provided at the center of the disc 22, into which a shaft (described later) of the support member 18 is inserted.

The disk 22 rotates together with the vane 20 about this axis, and as shown in the second figure, the front surface of the disk 22 is provided with a display whose contents change as it rotates.

In this case, red parts 28 and white parts 30 are provided alternately in a fan shape.

However, this display can also be done with other color combinations.
In addition to the fan shape, other shapes may also be used.

In short, it is sufficient to recognize the rotation of the disc through changes in the display as the water surface changes.

Next, the support member 18 is attached to a tube 32 inserted into the spout 14.
, a shaft 34 through which the impeller 16 is inserted, and a pipe 32 that connects the shaft 34 to the pipe 32.
and a member 36 connected to.

The 32nd is preferably formed with a taper on its outer periphery, and can be inserted into the spout 14 to support the support member 18 and the stirring device 1.
2 is fixed in the bath pot 10.

However, if a pipe protruding inward from the bathtub is formed at the spout, the pipe 32f should be placed so as to cover the pipe.
7. A taper is formed on the inner periphery of this tube 32 for insertion.

Instead of being bent or tapered, it is also possible to use other metal fittings or the like to hold the spout portion of the support member.

The shaft 34 supports the impeller 16 and preferably has a tipped nipper 38? / I'm ready.

The stopper 38 and the shaft 34 are integrated by threaded engagement, or are integrally molded from the beginning.

The connecting member 36 is formed into a circular shape, supports a shaft 34 at its center, supports a tube 32 on the opposite side around it, and has a plurality of holes 40 between them. .

Note that this connecting member 36 is formed of a plurality of walls arranged radially within the tube, and the above-mentioned axis extends from the center where these walls are concentrated, and the structure is such that the ffl 40 is not provided separately. (not shown).

Although it is desirable that the impeller 16 and the support member 18 be integrally molded together or made of resin or the like, each part, such as the shaft 34, may of course be formed separately from a metal rod or the like.

As described above, in the present invention, the disc 22 of the impeller is provided opposite the spout 14, and the vanes 20 are fixed radially to the disc, so that the hot water flowing from the spout 14 is blocked by the disc. and flows out in the circumferential direction.

Therefore, the impeller can be rotated to effectively stir the hot water while preventing the hot water from coming into direct contact with people in the bathtub.

Further, a predetermined display is placed on the disk, and this changes as it rotates.

Therefore, it is effective in making the bather easily aware that hot water is flowing in and calling attention to the fact that hot water is flowing in.
