[Detailed Description of the Invention] Industrial Application Field The present invention removes dust generated during bathing in ordinary households etc. from bath water, enabling clean bathing and reuse of bath water. It is related to a purifier.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, devices have been proposed that generate air bubbles in bath water and create a comfortable bathing environment through the ultrasonic cleaning effect and pine surge effect of the air bubbles. However, Cure only has a foaming function, and does not have the function of removing dust and dirt (hereinafter referred to as dust) from the bath water and making it possible to take a clean bath.

Further, regarding a device having a dust removal function, there has been no specific proposal for a device having a function of efficiently removing hair and the like floating on the surface of a bathtub in a short period of time.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention For this reason, in the past, in order to ensure a clean bath at home, people had to take care not to pollute the inside of the bathtub, and they had to change the bath water every day to increase the amount of water (not necessary to consume it). There was. Also,
It was not possible to enjoy a bath in clean bath water and a bubble bath using a foaming machine at the same time.

The present invention solves the above-mentioned conventional problems, and provides a bath purifier that allows you to take a clean bath easily, economically and efficiently using a small amount of bath water, and also allows you to enjoy a bubble bath.
The purpose is to provide it in a small size and at a low price.

Means for Solving the Problems In order to solve the above problems, the bath purifier of the present invention includes a pump having a water suction hole in the lower part and a water discharge hole in a direction perpendicular to the direction of the water suction hole; an ejector unit having an intake hole connected to a motor for driving the pump, a water discharge hole of the pump at one end, a water discharge hole at the other end, and an intake pipe whose upper end opens above the water surface on a side surface; The pump includes a main filter provided outside the water intake hole of the pump and a secondary filter installed in the intake pipe, and an intake port is formed on a side surface near the upper end of the intake pipe, and the intake port is opened and closed. It is equipped with a lid.

Further, the lid body is preferably formed of a cylindrical body that is rotatably fitted to the intake pipe and has an opening corresponding to the intake port on the side surface.

With the configuration described in ``Function'', the main filter removes dust in the circulating bath water, and at the same time, when the intake pipe's intake port is open, the secondary filter collects dust floating in the bath surface, and when it is closed. When the water is in the bath, only air is sucked in and a large amount of bubbles are generated from the water discharge hole, which then releases water into the bathing water.

Example An embodiment of the present invention will be described based on the drawings.
