く、益々雑菌が繁殖する。[0006] However, in addition to solid substances such as hair and soap scum, many germs attached to the human body are mixed in the bath water. These germs proliferate under conditions of a water temperature of about 30 ° C. to 40 ° C. and with food such as soap and sebum. In addition, the bath water is often used the next day when it is left overnight, so that more and more bacteria grow.

効果的な除菌には単独で用いる必要があった。[0007] In this case, since a large amount of sweat, sebum and various bacteria adhere to the laundry 8 even when the detergent and the bleach are added and used in the conventional manner of using the detergent and the bleaching agent, the microorganisms are sufficiently germ-free. Was not able to be removed, and an unpleasant smell sometimes remained in the washed laundry 8. This is because, on the surface, dirt and the like of the laundry 8 are removed, and the laundry is not actually washed even if it looks clean. In addition, there is a drawback that the effect cannot be exhibited when bleach etc. are used together with the detergent,
It had to be used alone for effective eradication.

かすことができる。According to the second aspect of the present invention, the solubilizing means comprises a solubilizing agent to be gradually solubilized and a cartridge portion containing the solubilizing agent, and bath water passes through the cartridge portion. Since a solubilizing agent that gradually solubilizes is contained in the cartridge part, the labor for putting in the washing auxiliary agent every time of washing can be omitted, and the bath water passes through the cartridge part. In addition, the present invention can be easily configured without requiring a large-scale device such as a control device, and can easily dissolve a washing auxiliary agent in washing water every time washing is performed.

When storing the solubilizing agent to be solubilized, a release part is formed in the cartridge part due to mistakes in storage by the user, and the danger of the pump being sucked air and not supplying water can be avoided, and the reliability of installation Can be higher.

Since the solubilizing agent is constantly immersed in water, the dissolution of the solubilizing agent is not promoted, and at the time of washing, the presence of the solubilizing agent can be easily confirmed because the solubilizing agent is located at an easily visible position. .

的に洗うことができる。According to the fifth aspect of the present invention, the first flow path has a first flow path that acts on the solubilizing agent that gradually dissolves and a second flow path that does not act. And a mechanism for changing the ratio of the flow rate passing through the second flow path, so that the solubilizing agent that gradually solubilizes generally has the property of dissolving better as the water temperature is higher, but the flow rate flowing through the two flow paths Variable, the amount of the solubilizing agent that gradually solubilizes without being affected by the temperature of the bath water can be appropriately controlled with a simple configuration, stabilizing the concentration of the solubilizing agent in the washing water, Can be dissolved. This makes it possible to reliably remove many germs. In addition, the control of the amount of the solubilizing agent to be dissolved can be performed with a simple structure, which is an economical means. Furthermore, these effects were that bacteria were removed from the bath water by removing bacteria, and the bacteria grew by eating detergent scum, sebum, etc., and caused mold in the washing tub. it can. Use of bath water also leads to effective use of water resources. In addition, since high-temperature water such as bath water is used for the washing water, it is needless to say that the enzyme of the detergent moves well and the washing performance is improved. Therefore, even with a small amount of detergent, the laundry can be washed cleanly and hygienically.
