FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view showing the structure of the fragrance member attached to the spray nozzle of this beauty treatment apparatus.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the beauty treatment apparatus 1 according to this embodiment is a steam-type steamer that atomizes and sprays liquid on a skin surface such as a user's face. On the front surface of the housing 2 of the beauty treatment apparatus 1, an injection nozzle 3 for injecting the atomized component M is provided. Further, on the front surface of the housing 2, there are a power switch 5 for turning on / off the power, a setting switch 7 for setting the operation mode of the beauty treatment apparatus 1, and a setting display LED 6 for displaying setting contents by the setting switch 7. Is provided. A power cord 8 for supplying power such as a commercial power source to electronic components in the apparatus is connected to the rear surface of the housing 2.

  Moreover, in the inside of the housing | casing 2 of the beauty treatment apparatus 1, as shown in FIG.2 and FIG.3, it has the atomization chamber 27 provided with the storage tank 21 which stores the water W as a liquid, for example, and is stored. The atomization mechanism 32 which atomizes the water W which is atomized to make the atomization component, and the atomization component sterilization mechanism 35 which sterilizes the atomization component M atomized by the atomization mechanism 32 are provided. Further, the beauty treatment apparatus 1 is provided with a water supply port 23 for supplying water from the outside, and the water W supplied from the water supply port 23 flows into the storage tank 21 constituting the atomization chamber 27. Further, the storage tank 21 may be configured to be detachable from the housing 2 so that the water W can be easily added into the storage tank 21. Here, the liquid to be atomized may be water W or a dedicated chemical for beauty treatment.

  The atomization mechanism 32 includes a liquid transfer channel 33 configured as a pipe for transferring the water W supplied from the water supply port 23, and the storage tank 21 into which the water W transferred through the liquid transfer channel 33 flows. An atomization chamber 27, a UV lamp 26 as a light source for irradiating the water W before being atomized by the atomization mechanism 32, an electric heater 29 provided at the bottom of the atomization chamber 27, and an electric heater And an air supply fan 28 for sending the atomizing component M obtained by atomizing the water W in the atomizing chamber 27 by the heating by the atomizing chamber 27 to the atomizing component sterilizing mechanism 35 side. Here, a cooling device may be further added to the outer wall portion of the atomizing component sterilization chamber 36. When the cooled atomizing component M is sprayed on the skin surface by this cooling device, it is possible to obtain an effect of tightening the pores and making the skin finer. Moreover, when adding a cooling device in this way, the structure etc. which can switch the production | generation of the atomization component of a heating state and the atomization component of a cooling state with the setting switch 7, for example are illustrated. The air supply fan 28 and the injection nozzle 3 function as an ejection mechanism that ejects the atomized component M sterilized by the atomized component sterilization mechanism 35 to the outside of the housing 2.

  Moreover, in the beauty treatment apparatus 1 of this embodiment, as shown in FIG.1, FIG.2, FIG.4, the fragrance (aroma) from which the skin beautifying effect | action is obtained with respect to the atomization component M which should be ejected from the injection nozzle 3. FIG. A fragrance member 9 is provided as a fragrance imparting mechanism. The aromatic member 9 formed in a ring shape is configured to be detachable with respect to the injection nozzle 3, for example, and has an atomization component injection flow path 9 a communicating with the atomization component injection flow path 3 a of the injection nozzle 3. Prepare for the central part. Further, the main body portion of the ring-shaped fragrance member 9 contains, for example, a plant essential oil or the like that provides a skin-beautifying action. Therefore, when the atomizing component M is sprayed from the spray nozzle 3, an aroma that provides a beautifying skin action is imparted to the atomizing component M, and thereby the skin surface can be treated with the cleaned atomizing component M. It is possible to enhance the skin beautifying effect by synergistically acting with the effects of aromatherapy.

  The UV lamp 26 described above is disposed in the storage tank 21 below the atomization chamber 27, flows into the storage tank 21 in the atomization chamber 27 through the liquid transfer channel 33, and is temporarily stored. Irradiate the water W with ultraviolet rays. Thereby, since the water W before being atomized can be sterilized by ultraviolet rays in advance, further purification of the atomized component sprayed on the skin surface can be achieved. The storage tank 21 in the atomization chamber 27 and the water supply port 23 are connected through the liquid transfer channel 33 described above.

  In addition, when the water level of the water W flowing into the storage tank 21 of the atomization chamber 27 through the liquid transfer channel 33 exceeds a predetermined water level H1, the water W exceeding (overflowing) the water level H1 is drained. A drainage mechanism 12 is provided for draining to the drainage tank 15 side through a drain pipe 14 having an inlet opening at the top. Here, instead of the above configuration, the drain intake port of the drain pipe may be connected to the side (lateral direction) of the storage tank 21 in the atomization chamber 27 corresponding to the position of the water level H1.

  Further, between the water supply port 23 and the storage tank 21 in the atomization chamber 27, as shown in FIG. 2, TiC or the like is used as a constituent material so that the water W transferred to the storage tank 21 side can be purified. The formed ceramic filter 22 is interposed. Furthermore, the outer peripheral part of the liquid transfer flow path 33 between this ceramic filter 22 and the storage tank 21 in the atomization chamber 27 and the atomization component transfer flow path 38 between the atomization component sterilization chamber 36 and the injection nozzle 3 which will be described later. Magnetization mechanisms 24 and 40 configured by arranging permanent magnets 34 and 41, respectively, are provided on the outer peripheral portion. Since the water W transferred to the atomizing chamber 27 side can be magnetically processed by the permanent magnet 34 to be magnetized water, the surface of the skin can be converted into the atomized component M obtained by atomizing the water W which is divided into clusters. Can be subjected to cosmetic treatment. The permanent magnet 34 may be composed of an electromagnet or the like.

  As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the atomization component sterilization mechanism 35 includes the atomization component sterilization chamber 36 disposed on the downstream side of the atomization chamber 27 with respect to the storage tank 21, and the atomization component sterilization chamber. And a UV lamp 30 serving as an ozone tube disposed in 36. Specifically, the atomization component sterilization chamber 36 is disposed on the path of the atomization component transfer flow path 38 configured as a pipe connecting the atomization chamber 27 and the injection nozzle 3. The generated ozone and the atomizing component M transferred from the atomizing chamber 27 are brought into gas-liquid contact to sterilize the atomizing component M.

  In addition, although the density | concentration of the ozone produced | generated with the UV lamp 30 is less than 0.1 ppm, when the bactericidal effect is considered, it is desirable that it is about 0.004 ppm-0.06 ppm, for example. Here, in this embodiment, the UV lamp 30 in the atomization component sterilization chamber 36, the UV lamp 26 in the atomization chamber 27, and the ceramic filter 22 are mainly before being atomized by the atomization mechanism 32. It functions as a cleaning mechanism for purifying the atomizing component M generated by the water W or the atomizing mechanism 32 to obtain an atomized component in a clean state.

Here, in the magnetizing mechanism 24 described above, a magnetic force of, for example, 4,000 G (Gauss) or more arranged in the outer peripheral portion of the atomizing component transfer channel 38 between the atomizing component sterilization chamber 36 and the injection nozzle 3 is generated. Let us consider the permanent magnet 41 that applies a magnetic treatment to the atomizing component M.
In general, it is said that a magnetic force of several tens of Tesla (100,000 G) is required to purify magnetized water by applying magnetic treatment to water.
Here, even if 50 Tesla (500,000 G) is required for refining magnetized water, the density of water in the steam is 1/2000, so if there is a magnetic force of 250 G, Magnetization can be performed.
Therefore, it can be said that the magnetic force of 4,000 G or more generated by the permanent magnet 41 sufficiently satisfies the requirements for the magnetization of the atomizing component M in the atomizing component transfer channel 38.

According to the magnetizing mechanisms 24 and 40 constituted by the permanent magnet 41 and the permanent magnet 34 described above, the water W and the atomizing component M are subjected to magnetic treatment so that water molecules are coupled to each other. The size of the cluster is reduced to activate the water molecules, and it is possible to kill miscellaneous bacteria and clean the water W and the atomizing component M.
In addition, such a permanent magnet 41 includes the atomization chamber 27 and the atomization component sterilization chamber 36 in the upper part of the atomization chamber 27, the atomization component sterilization chamber 36, the injection nozzle 3, or the atomization component transfer channel 38. It may be arranged in between. Further, the permanent magnet 41 may be an electromagnet as long as it generates a magnetic force of 4000 G or more.

  As described above, in the beauty treatment apparatus 1 of the present embodiment, the water W purified by the ceramic filter 22, the magnetization mechanism 24, and the UV lamp 26 is atomized, and the atomized component M obtained thereby is converted into the UV lamp. Since it can be sterilized with ozone through 30 and further subjected to magnetic treatment through the magnetizing mechanism 40 and then sprayed onto the skin surface of the user's face, etc., the purified atomizing component that penetrates into the pores from this skin surface With M, dirt substances such as old keratin and sebum clogged in pores can be effectively removed.

(Second Embodiment)
As shown in FIGS. 5 to 8, the beauty treatment apparatus 51 according to this embodiment is a combination of a steam method and an ultrasonic method, in which water W is atomized and sprayed onto the skin surface of the user's face or the like. In addition to the configuration of the beauty treatment apparatus 1 described in the first embodiment, a red LED (light emitting diode) 52, a blue LED 53 and a yellow LED 54, an ultrasonic vibrator 25, a photocatalyst imparting mechanism 55, An ionizer 56 and a cosmetic liquid impregnation member 65 that functions as a cosmetic liquid component mixing mechanism are added.

  As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the photocatalyst imparting mechanism 55 is provided on the liquid transfer flow path 33 between the ceramic filter 22 and the magnetization mechanism 24, and the liquid transfer flow toward the atomization chamber 27. The water W flowing through the path 33 is purified. That is, the liquid purification mechanism 55 includes a photocatalyst mainly composed of titanium dioxide and a light source 61 such as an LED that emits light toward the photocatalyst. As the photocatalyst, a visible light responsive photocatalyst or an ultraviolet responsive photocatalyst may be used, and the light source is appropriately selected so as to correspond to the reaction type of the applied photocatalyst. As shown in FIGS. 6 to 8, in addition to such a photocatalytic action providing mechanism 55, a photocatalytic action providing mechanism 59 having a light source 62 is also provided in the injection nozzle 3. In the photocatalyst imparting mechanism 59, the dirt component in the atomized component M obtained by atomization can be decomposed by the action of the photocatalyst.

  Further, such a photocatalyst may be applied by coating the inner wall surface of a liquid transfer channel configured as a pipe, or a filter is disposed in the liquid transfer channel and the photocatalyst is coated on the filter. Thus, the photocatalytic action imparting mechanism 55 may be configured. According to the photocatalyst imparting mechanism 55 configured as described above, the dirt component in the liquid such as water W can be decomposed by the action of the photocatalyst, so that the cleaned atomized component can be sprayed on the skin surface. Furthermore, such a photocatalyst is coated on the inner wall portions of the storage tank 21, the atomizing chamber 27, the atomizing component transfer flow path 38, and the like, and a light source for irradiating light toward the photocatalyst coated on these inner wall portions is provided. Furthermore, you may add. Here, the light emitted from the LED lamp of the photocatalyst imparting mechanism is, for example, ultraviolet light having a wavelength range of less than 380 nm and a luminous intensity of, for example, about 220 mcd. In addition, by selecting a visible light reaction type photocatalyst, for example, blue light having a wavelength range of about 440 to 449 nm, purple light having a wavelength of about 370 to 380 nm, or the like can be used instead of the LED lamp emitting ultraviolet light. LED lamps that respectively emit light may be applied.

  The atomization mechanism 58 including the ultrasonic transducer 25 has an action of atomizing the water W using the ultrasonic vibration generated by the ultrasonic transducer 25 and vaporization while heating the water W by the electric heater 29. Can be obtained at the same time. That is, according to the atomization mechanism 58, the atomization of the water W and the heating of the atomization component M can be performed simultaneously, and the atomization of the cluster molecules constituting the atomization component is achieved by ultrasonic vibration. This can enhance the effect of the cosmetic treatment applied to the skin surface.

  In addition, as shown in FIG. 6, one or a plurality of ionizers 56 are arranged on the path of the atomization component transfer flow path 38 (see FIG. 7) between the atomization component sterilization chamber 36 and the injection nozzle 3. Thus, negative ions are imparted to the atomizing component M transferred from the atomizing component sterilization chamber 36 side. Here, in the beauty treatment apparatus 51 of the present embodiment, for example, a plurality of ionizers 56 including a set of discharge needles are arranged, and thereby, compared with an apparatus that does not have the ionizer 56, the atomization component M The particle diameter can be 1/8000 or less. Accordingly, the atomization component M to which the particle size is small and the negative ions are permeated deeply into the skin, thereby activating the cell tissue, thereby enabling effective cosmetic treatment. Can be applied.

Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 5, the red LED 52, the blue LED 53, and the yellow LED 54 are
It functions as a visible light radiation mechanism that emits visible light in a specific wavelength region toward the ejection direction of the atomized component M from the ejection nozzle 3. That is, the light emitted from the red LED 52 has, for example, a peak wavelength of 641 nm and a luminous intensity of, for example, 180 mcd. This red light has a high skin penetration rate, reacts to melanin in the deep part of the skin, and is effective in removing spots deep in the skin. Also, combined with red color action, it is suitable for improving reddish skin, and blood circulation promoting effects can be obtained. It is also suitable for so-called slimming care.

  Furthermore, the light emitted from the yellow LED 54 has a peak wavelength of, for example, 592 nm and a luminous intensity of, for example, 220 mcd. Since this yellow light has a higher skin penetration rate than the light emitted from the red LED 52, it is effective for removing a stain on the skin surface. Moreover, it is suitable for the improvement of aging skin and trouble skin as a function of color. The light emitted from the blue LED 53 has a peak wavelength of, for example, 465 nm and a luminous intensity of, for example, 70 to 200 mcd. Since this blue light is well absorbed by hemoglobin, it is effective for red face and red aza. As an effect of color, it increases lymph drainage action and blood circulation action. Furthermore, the effect etc. which relieve stress and tension can be acquired.

  Therefore, in the beauty treatment apparatus 51 having the red LED 52, the blue LED 53, and the yellow LED 54, the effect that the nebulized component M that has been sterilized by ozone penetrates deep into the skin, and a specific wavelength range. An excellent cosmetic treatment effect can be obtained by a synergistic effect with the chromotherapy effect (the effect of color on the skin) by irradiating the skin surface with visible light.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 7, the beauty treatment apparatus 51 of this embodiment is provided with a drainage shutter 63 that opens and closes a drainage intake port that connects the storage tank 21 and the drain pipe 14. As shown in FIG. 5, the operation of the drainage shutter 63 is controlled by opening / closing the drainage intake port by operating a drainage selection button 64 provided on the front surface of the beauty treatment apparatus 51. Thereby, since the liquid of the storage state used as the atomization object can be substituted with a new liquid, etc., the liquid used as the atomization object can be cleaned. Further, for example, a temperature sensor or the like may be installed in the storage tank 21 so that the temperature of the water W stored in the storage tank 21 can be detected. That is, for example, when the temperature of the detected water W in the storage tank 21 is high, the so-called emptying in the storage tank 21 is performed by performing control so that drainage from the drain pipe 14 is not possible. It becomes possible to prevent.

  Furthermore, in the cosmetic treatment apparatus 51 of the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 8, a cosmetic liquid impregnation member 65 for mixing a cosmetic liquid component into the atomizing component M to be ejected from the injection nozzle 3 is provided. It is prepared. The cosmetic liquid impregnated member 65 is configured to be detachable, for example, with respect to the inside of the injection nozzle 3 in the same manner as the fragrance member 9 described above, and the atomization component communicating with the atomization component injection flow path 3a of the injection nozzle 3 An injection flow path 65a is provided in the center portion. In addition, the body portion of the cosmetic liquid impregnated member 65 formed into a ring shape using a cotton-like material or the like contains (impregnates) a cosmetic liquid made up of a cosmetic liquid or other nutrients that provides a skin-beautifying action. ing. The cosmetic liquid impregnated member 65 may be configured to be mounted in the injection nozzle 3 together with the fragrance member 9. Further, in place of such a cosmetic liquid-impregnated member 65, a dish-shaped member can be installed in the middle of the atomization component ejection flow path 3 a of the ejection nozzle 3, and this dish-shaped member is further provided from the outside of the housing 2. The cosmetic processing device 51 may be configured so that the cosmetic liquid can be supplied to the atomized component M so that the cosmetic liquid component is mixed.

Here, as the cosmetic liquid to be impregnated (impregnated) into the cosmetic liquid impregnated member 65, oil-based ones such as squalane / jojoba oil having a moisturizing effect, other provitamin C having whitening / antioxidant action Provitamin E and the like are exemplified. These cosmetic liquids have a resistance that does not change the physical properties of the cosmetic liquid even when contacted with the atomizing component M (steam equivalent to 100 ° C.).
Therefore, by mounting such a cosmetic liquid-impregnated member 65 on the spray nozzle 3, the cosmetic liquid component is mixed into the atomized component M cleaned in the previous stage and sprayed onto the skin surface. Can be realized, and more excellent skin treatment can be realized.

  In particular, by blending provitamin C in the beauty impregnation member 65, the beauty treatment apparatus 51 of the present example (the present invention) comes to exhibit a remarkable effect. That is, in the beauty treatment apparatus 51 of this example (this configuration), provitamin C can be penetrated particularly to the deep part of the skin due to the pore expansion effect, for example, the dermis of the skin as compared with the skin epidermis. The amount of permeation can be increased. When the provitamin C is absorbed into the skin, it is converted into vitamin C by enzymes in the skin. Therefore, pigmentation in the skin can be effectively removed not only from the epidermis but also from the dermis, and the whitening effect can be enhanced.

In addition, although content in the said atomization component can be adjusted suitably, in this example, it can be set to 3% by adjusting the amount of impregnations to the cosmetic impregnation member 65, for example. In this case, the penetration amount of provitamin C into the dermis described above can be further increased. The whitening effect can be further improved.
In addition, in addition to the spraying in the beauty treatment apparatus 51, the whitening effect by provitamin C in this example can be further enhanced by using the operation of directly applying the provitamin C to the skin.

  FIG. 9 is a graph showing the total amount of vitamin C in the skin when provitamin C is sprayed together with the atomizing component (steam) into the skin using the beauty treatment apparatus 51 in this example. In the example shown in FIG. 9, a 3% concentration provitamin C solution was applied during the spray treatment of provitamin C, and then the spray treatment was performed. For comparison, we also conducted a comparison experiment with a beauty treatment device of another company's product.

  As is clear from FIG. 9, as the amount of provitamin C in the atomized component (steam) is increased using the beauty treatment apparatus 51 in this example, not only the epidermis of the skin but also the dermis is sufficiently provitamin C. It can be seen that it has been converted into vitamin C. In addition, it can be seen that the amount of vitamin C contained in the epidermis and dermis is equal to or higher than the products of other companies that are currently mainstream.

  Further, in the beauty treatment apparatus 51 in this example, the total amount of vitamins in the skin is maximized when the amount of provitamin C in the atomized component (steam) is 3%. Since the increase rate is remarkable compared to the case of 1%, the experiment has not been conducted at this time, but by increasing the amount of provitamin C in the atomized component (steam) to more than 3% It is also conceivable that the total amount of vitamin C in the skin can be significantly increased as compared with the products of the above-mentioned other companies.

The present invention has been specifically described with reference to the first and second embodiments. However, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments, and various modifications can be made without departing from the scope of the present invention. . For example, by providing a storage tank capable of electrolyzing water on the upstream side of the atomization chamber 27 and an ion exchange membrane in the storage tank, weak alkaline water having a high affinity with body fluids and blood can be sprayed. A beauty processing apparatus may be configured as described above. By spraying such weak alkaline water on the skin surface, the skin-beautifying effect can be further improved.
