2. Description of the Related Art As shown in FIG. 8, a conventional bathtub is provided with a side wall 2 of a bathtub body 1 which forms a bathing space B which allows a bather to be immersed in the hot water. In addition to a drain port 10 provided at the bottom of the bathtub body 1, a drain port 6 for discharging hot water exceeding a set height L in the bathtub body 1 to the outside of the bathtub is provided. A base member 11 is attached to the outside of the discharge port 6, and a drain pipe 12 is connected through the base member 11.
Is connected to the bathtub body 1. That is, hot and cold water stretched in the bathtub main body 1 beyond the upper end of the bathtub main body 1,
That is, the discharge port 6 is provided in order to prevent hot water or water from overflowing out of the bathtub. Hot water that exceeds the height of the lower end of the discharge port 6 is directed outward from the discharge port 6. The hot water level F is prevented from flowing out and exceeding the height.

In the above-mentioned conventional bathtub, the hot water overflowing from the discharge port 6 is directly discharged to the drain pipe 12.
It will flow into. Therefore, when the water level F in the bathtub body 1 rises rapidly during bathing, or when the bathtub body 1
If a large amount of hot water is poured into the bathtub and the hot water level F in the bathtub exceeds the set height L, the hot water is inadvertently injected into the bathtub body 1. Hot water exceeding the set height L flows out from the outlet 6 to the drain pipe 12, but exceeds the drain capacity of the drain pipe 12. As a result, the hot water surface F overflows out of the bathtub beyond the upper surface of the bathtub body 1. This causes waste of hot water and a problem of increasing wasteful energy consumption. In order to prevent this, the volume of the bathing space B must be increased, which causes a problem of a bathtub installation in which the bathroom must be enlarged.
There is also a problem on energy consumption that causes an increase in hot water consumption. Furthermore, when a large amount of hot and cold water overflows from the bathing space B to the washing area at a time, in the case of a unit bath formed for the elderly in a barrier-free manner, the hot and cold water overflows from the entrance of the washing area. There is a problem that it may flow out. Then, a bathtub of the present invention solves the above-mentioned problems, and an object of the present invention is to prevent hot water in the bathtub from overflowing out of the bathtub in the bathroom.

According to the first characteristic configuration, since the height of the opening is set to the set height, even if the level of the hot water in the bathtub body suddenly rises and exceeds the set height, Hot water in the bathtub body flows out of the opening into the overflow container. The overflowing hot water is once stored in the overflow storage section and then discharged from a discharge port provided at the bottom of the overflow storage section. Therefore, even if the amount of hot water that exceeds the drainage capacity from the discharge port flows into the overflow container through the opening, the water is temporarily stored in the overflow container, and the hot water discharged from the overflow container is discharged from the overflow container. It has a buffering effect on the flow rate, so that even if the hot water level rises rapidly, hot water can be prevented from overflowing out of the bathtub.

According to the fourth aspect, the operation and effect of the third aspect are further ensured. That is, since the opening is formed on the side wall of the bathtub body over the entire circumference, a sufficiently large opening can be formed without increasing the vertical width of the opening, and the opening flows out of the bathing space to the overflow container. This makes it possible to reduce the resistance to hot and cold water and quickly drain hot water from the bathtub body to the overflow container. Also, by being able to reduce the vertical width of the opening,
The opening can be made inconspicuous to a bather.

As shown in FIG. 1, the bath tub is filled with hot water so that a bather can bathe in the hot water.
Is formed so that it can be installed in a unit bath having a peripheral overhang 4 formed by projecting from the upper end of the bathtub body 1 to the periphery. In the upper part of the side wall 2 of the bathtub body 1, an opening 3 (see FIG. 2) having a lower end arranged at a set height L is formed. Further, as shown in FIG. 2, an overflow storage section 5 having a drainage space E capable of storing hot water overflowing from the bathing space B to the outside through the opening 3 is formed on the side wall 2 of the bathtub body 1. Then, a discharge port 6 is arranged at the bottom of the overflow container 5 (see FIG. 3). The bottom of the overflow container 5 is provided with a water gradient toward the discharge port 6. FIG. 3 shows a cut surface located in the opening 3. Although a preferred example is shown in the drawing, the opening 3 is formed in a slit shape that is long in the lateral direction along the upper edge of the side wall 2 and is formed over the entire circumference of the side wall 2. The lowest position of the upper edge 7 facing the opening 3 of the side wall 2 forming the lower end of the slit-shaped opening 3 (in this example, the upper edge 7 is horizontal, and all positions are the lowest positions) .)
To the position of the set height L. FIG. 2 shows the overflow container 5 having a cross-sectional shape having a narrow upper portion.
The cross-sectional shape of the overflow container 5 is arbitrary, and may be, for example, a rectangle or a square. It is sufficient that the opening 3 is formed at least above the drainage space E.

As shown in FIG. 2, the overflow container 5 has a slit-shaped opening 3 formed over the entire circumference with a set height L set at the upper portion of the side wall 2 as a lower end.
Outside, a bottom portion is formed in a groove shape surrounding the side wall 2,
It may be formed over the entire circumference of the bathtub body 1. It is sufficient that the discharge port 6 is disposed at at least one location on the bottom of the groove. By forming the overflow container 5 so as to surround the side wall 2, the drainage space E of the overflow container 5 is formed.
Can be easily increased in volume. The upper end of the opening 3 to the overflow container 5 is desirably aligned above the overflow container 5. This is because the hot water easily flows into the bathing space B from the opening 3 even when the hot water level F in the bathing space B rises.

An example of bathing with hot water in a bath tub configured as described above will be described with reference to FIG.
Before bathing, the water level F in the bathing space B is lower than the opening 3 as shown in FIG. Here, when the bather enters the hot water, the hot water level F rises and may exceed the lower end of the opening 3, that is, the set height L, as shown in FIG. Along with this, hot water flows from the bathing space B to the drainage space E of the overflow container 5 through the slit-shaped opening 3 as shown in FIG. The hot and cold water that has flowed into the drainage space E does not immediately flow out of the discharge port 6 but flows out to the drain pipe 12 sequentially from the portion that has reached the discharge port 6. Therefore, in the overflow container 5, hot water flows and stays at a certain depth while flowing. Thereafter, the retained hot water flows out toward the drainage pipe 12 while lowering the water level in the overflow storage part 5 as shown in FIG. It flows out of the. Thus, even if the hot water overflowing from the bathing space B does not immediately flow out of the drainage pipe 12, it is temporarily drained to the drainage pipe 12 while being temporarily retained in the drainage space E of the overflow storage part 5 with a delay. Because Therefore, by setting the outlet 6 to have an appropriate flow passage opening area, even if a large amount of hot water overflows from the bathing space B at one time, the drainage space E is temporarily retained in the drainage space E. Regardless of the flow rate at 12, the overflow of hot water from the bathtub body 1 to the washing place can be suppressed or prevented.
