Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to an improvement in an electric sauna bath using a far-infrared heater.

In recent years, electric sauna baths that utilize far-infrared light have been developed for both commercial and home use, and have gained popularity due to their health and beauty benefits.

Figure 1 shows a 'drowsy sauna bath' using a conventional far-infrared heater. 1-0 Figure (a) is a front view of an electric sauna bath, Figure (1) is a cross-sectional view of the inside of the electric sauna bath. It is. In the figure, 1 is the electric sauna bath body, 2 is the entrance/exit door,
Reference numeral 3 designates a viewing window provided on the entrance/exit door, 4 a far-infrared heater operating section, 5 a door handle, and 6 a far-infrared heater.

As shown in Fig. 1, a conventional electric sauna bath using a far-infrared heater has only a far-infrared heater 6 installed inside the sauna bath body, and a energizing switch 1 for this far-infrared heater.
The operating unit 4, which includes a bathing dial for temperature adjustment, was attached to the side of the warehouse entrance. M) To assemble the electric sauna bath, first prepare the electric sauna bath main body 1, install the far infrared heater 6 inside the electric sauna bath main body, and install the operating part 4 on the side of the outside of the sauna bath, such as the entrance. The inspection was then carried out to install power wiring between the external operation section 4 and the internal far-infrared heater 6, and to install control wiring such as a heating plate control thermoswitch for the far-infrared heater 6 or a room temperature control thermoswitch. Ta.

However, this construction required a long time and was a cause of high manufacturing costs.

This invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned points.The far-infrared heater and its operating section are integrated into one far-infrared device, and this far-infrared device can be easily installed in the The purpose of this invention is to provide an inexpensive electric sauna bath that can be installed inside the sauna bath itself. Hereinafter, this invention will be explained in detail using the drawings.

FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an electric sauna bath according to an embodiment of the present invention, in which FIG. 2(a) is a front view and FIG. 2(b) is a front sectional view showing the inside of the chamber. In this figure, parts given the same reference numerals as those in FIG. 1 indicate the same parts, and therefore explanations are omitted (the same applies to the following drawings). As shown in the figure,
A far infrared heater 6 and an operation unit 4 are installed inside the sauna bath body 1.
A far infrared ray device A is attached, in which both are integrally fixed. Therefore, unlike the conventional electric sauna bath, there is no need to provide power supply wiring or other wiring connecting the operating section 4 and the far-infrared heater 6 inside the chamber.

FIG. 3 is a diagram showing a far-infrared device A in which a far-infrared heater 6 and an operating section 4 are integrated. The far-infrared heater 6 is inserted into a frame 11 whose surface is formed in a grid pattern, and fixed to the frame 11 by appropriate means. An operating section 4 having a power switch 8, a thermostat adjustment knob 9, an outlet 10, etc. is integrally fixed to the side surface of the frame 11. This frame body 11 is provided with four screw holes 12, and the installation to the sauna bath main body 1 can be done using a member 15.
It is fixed by passing the screw 16 through the screw hole 12 at the top. 13 is a power supply lead wire. By making the far-infrared □ external line device 6 in which the far-infrared heater 6 and the operation part 4 are assembled into the frame 11 as a part of the electric sauna bath, this far-infrared device Installation of the sauna bath main body 1 inside the chamber requires no special construction work, just fixing it to the member 15 with four screws 16.
Since the far-infrared heater 6 and the operation part 4 are built into the frame 11 as a far-infrared device, in the event of a failure, the far-infrared device can be removed for easy inspection and repair. You won't be able to give up your electric sauna bath unless you install an infrared device instead. Furthermore, instead of four screws, it may be a snap-in structure that can be removed with just a touch.

Next, the operation of the above embodiment will be explained.

FIG. 4 is a circuit diagram used in the embodiment shown in FIG. 2. In the figure, at -t6, 17 is a heating plate control thermostat for the far-infrared heater 6, 18 is a temperature control thermostat inside the refrigerator, 19 is a plug attached to the tip of the power supply lead wire 13, 20 is a limiting resistor, and 21
is an indicator lamp. First, the plug 19 is inserted into the external power outlet, and power voltage is applied to both terminals of the outlet 10. For example, if you are taking a bath at night and the interior of the refrigerator is illuminated, turn off the plug of the lighting device. By plugging into this outlet 10, the interior of the refrigerator can be illuminated.

Next, when the power switch 8 is turned on, the display lamp 21 lights up and current is supplied to the heat generating plate of the far infrared heater 6.
Far infrared rays are emitted from the surface of the far infrared heater 6, and the room temperature rises to the value set by the room temperature control thermostat 18. Next, the bather can adjust the heating plate control thermostat 17 to irradiate far-infrared rays at the desired temperature.

As described above in detail, the electric sauna bath according to the present invention has a far-infrared device integrated with an operation section consisting of a far-infrared heater, a power switcher, a control thermoswitch, and a simple number of devices installed in the interior of the sauna bath body. With σ, which allows individual parts to be installed using individual parts, assembly work is simplified and there is no need for internal wiring to connect the far-infrared heater to the operating section outside the chamber, unlike in conventional electric sauna baths. ,
The overall manufacturing cost is also low. In addition, since the far-infrared device is integrated with the far-infrared heater and the operating section, maintenance management such as replacement of parts and repairs to prevent failures is easy.
