Description

The utility model relates to the thermal equipment of a bath or sauna and is designed to produce steam by boiling water and mist by ultrasonic atomization during bath procedures, in particular, it can be used to produce saturated and superheated steam in baths, saunas for individual and collective use, in climatic chambers for sports and health and medical profiles.

Known household steam generator [https://paromax.ru/parogeneratori-paromaks/parogenerator-paromaks-home-style/parogenerator-home-style-4-kvt-tm-paromaks], including a water inlet valve, a water drain valve, a power cable inlet, a control cable inlet, a stainless steel tank, insulating material, a water level sensor, a steam outlet, a pressure collection valve, an overheating thermal switch, a main board, a power board, a terminal block, a wire ground terminal , TEN.

Known Electric steam generator (RU No. 13412, publ. 10.04.2000), containing a body equipped with pipes for supplying liquid and removing steam, with an overheating chamber and an evaporation chamber located inside it, as well as a heating chamber and an electric heater, characterized in that the heating chamber is located inside the body and is combined with a combined overheating chamber and an evaporation chamber into one common chamber, inside which an electric heater is placed.

The disadvantage of the devices described above is that these devices are designed to perform only one function, namely only the generation of high temperature steam or mist. All devices are in their case, which significantly increases their cost and size. In cases where it is necessary to connect the possibility of phytotherapy or aromatherapy to the devices, it is necessary to purchase additional devices. In the case of excessive boiling in the steam generator, a baffle for this process is not provided and, as a result, hot water may be thrown into the steam pipeline and splashed onto people. The fog generator has a voltage of 48 volts, which is very inconvenient for creating general control systems, since basically all manufacturers use 12-24 volts.

The utility model is based on the task of creating a complex device capable of producing both hot steam and cold partuman and saturating the latter with phyto- and aroma extracts.

The technical result consists in combining several functions in one device.

The technical result is achieved by the proposed mist steam generator with the possibility of herbal and aromatherapy, including a housing in which are installed: a container for extracts and esters; a herb container provided with a steam line, a steam inlet and a condensate drain, the steam inlet being located in the extract containers above the bottom level; an extract pump configured to supply extracts to the ultrasonic evaporator and to the steam line if steam is present therein; a steam generator including a steam generator tank equipped with a water level sensor, a steam outlet from the steam generator, a steam distribution valve, a water inlet and a water drain, a heating element, a reheating pipe passing through the steam generator tank, to which, in turn, an excess boiling baffle is attached; fan; fog generator, including a tank, equipped, in turn, with a water inlet, a water outlet, a water level sensor, a fog outlet and an ultrasonic evaporator.

Distinctive features of the proposed device:

1. Mist generator designed specifically for this 24V model with the ability to work in a humid environment.

2. The fog generator has the ability to spray phyto- and aroma extracts in order to saturate the space of the steam room with them

3. An excessive boiling baffle with steam extraction has been added to the steam generator in order to more accurately determine the water level and prevent water from being thrown into the steam pipes.

4. A water heating system has been added to the steam generator, which can be used to supply it to the sauna heater. It is represented by a pipe passing through the steam generator tank, to which, in turn, an excess boiling baffle is attached. Thus, heating of the water passing through the pipe is achieved for the purpose of its further use for supply to the sauna heater.

5. The phyto container for herbs to saturate the steam with phytoextracts is specially installed at the steam outlet in order to improve the extraction.

6. The steam inlet to the phytocontainer is located in the lateral projection of the container above the bottom level in this example by 3 centimeters, so that the condensate during the extraction of herbs does not enter the steam pipeline, since when phytoextracts enter the steam generator, it leads to excessive boiling.

7. Added the ability to saturate steam with liquid extracts through a peristaltic pump, which operates through a steam temperature sensor and performs a dosed injection only when there is steam in the steam pipeline system, which prevents extracts from entering the steam generator.

7. The steam generator is equipped with both mechanical in the form of a float type valve and electrical systems in the form of conductometric and capacitive water level sensors in order to determine it more accurately in order to prevent the system from working without water. These sensors are located in the steam generator tank behind the baffle. The bump stop in this case allows you to dampen the fluctuations of water during boiling, which allows the sensors to more accurately track the water level.

The proposed utility model is illustrated by drawings, where figure 1 shows a view of the mist generator without an outer casing in a 3D section, in Fig. 2 is a general view of the device without a 3D case, figure 3 is a general view in a 3D case.

The proposed utility model includes building 1, which contains:

container 2 for extracts and esters;

a phytocontainer for herbs 3, equipped with a steam line 4, in which a steam temperature sensor is installed (not shown in the figure), a steam inlet 5 and a condensate drain system 6, with the steam inlet 5 located in the container 2 above the bottom level;

peristaltic pump 7;

a steam generator including a steam generator tank 8, equipped with a heating element 9, a reheating pipe 10 passing through the tank 8, to which an excess boiling baffle 11 is attached, a water level sensor 12, steam outlet from the steam generator 13, steam distribution valve 14, water inlet 15 through the valve and water drain 16;

fan 17;

fog generator, including tank 18, including water inlet 19 through the valve, water drain 20, fog (cold steam) outlet 21 and ultrasonic evaporator 22, water level sensor 23.

The mist generator works as follows.

Pure water is supplied to the system and through the water inlets 20 enters the fog generator tank 19 and the steam generator tank 8 to the operating level, which is monitored by water level sensors 12 and 23. When the fog generator is turned on, the ultrasonic evaporator 22 starts to create fog, and the fan 17 pumps air into the tank 18 and due to the pressure difference, the air saturated with fog exits through the fog outlet holes 21. When the peristaltic pump 7 for aroma is turned on extracts, they are fed to the ultrasonic evaporator 22 and are also sprayed into the tank 19 of the fog generator, mixed with fog and discharged through the holes into the steam room.

The water in the steam generator is brought to a boil by means of the heating element 9 and the saturated steam exits through the steam outlet 13 and then exits the device housing 1 through the steam line. In the case of turning on the peristaltic pump 7 for liquid aroma extracts, the steam sensor (not shown in the figures) in the steam line 4 determines its presence and sprays the aroma extracts into the steam line 4 in order to saturate the steam with aroma extracts. If the user wants to get phytoextracts from herbs, then he can put 2 different herbal mixtures into the container and, due to the passage of steam through the container, they are extracted and the steam is saturated with phytoextracts. The distribution of steam into the phytocontainer 3 for herbs is possible both manually by turning the body of the phytocontainer 3 herbs, and using the steam distribution valve 14 by supplying power to the valve. In order to better determine the water level and in case of excessive boiling, an excessive boiling baffle 11 is placed in the steam generator, it does not allow water in a non-gaseous state to enter the steam pipeline 4, and also does not allow excessive pumping of water in the zone of level sensors 12. Steam generators from other manufacturers do not have this system, as a result, very often steam generators fail due to frequent incorrect determination of the water level. The steam pipelines are provided with a condensate drain system 6 in order to prevent splashing of condensed water at the outlet of the device.
