Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To efficiently, safely and inexpensively dissolve carbon dioxide, which is generated from a carbon dioxide generating bath agent, into bathtub water. <P>SOLUTION: A carbon dioxide diffusing apparatus includes a carbon dioxide bath agent dissolving part 2; and a carbon dioxide diffusing device part 1 having micropores. The bubble of the carbon dioxide is made to be very small by the micropores 3 arranged between the dissolving part 2 and the diffusing device part 1 and the micropores 4 arranged in the diffusing apparatus part. Then the bubble of the carbon dioxide is made to be very small. The area where the carbon dioxide contacts the bathtub water is drastically enlarged and contact time is prolonged. The device is stably arranged in the bathtub so as to prevent floating-up owing to the circumferential bubbles of the bath agent and to allow the bath agent to continuously diffuse the carbon dioxide to the end. Accordingly, the carbon dioxide is efficiently dissolved in the bathtub water. When different bath agents such as herbs or emulsifiers are set, pleasure in bathing is increased. When pressure is increased by the generation of the carbon dioxide, excessive gas is discharged from a bathtub water intake hole 5 so as to avoid danger. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI

Description

発明の詳細な説明Detailed Description of the Invention

本発明は、微小孔を有する装置にて効率よく炭酸ガス発生入浴剤の炭酸ガスを浴槽水に溶解させる装置についてのものである。 The present invention relates to an apparatus for efficiently dissolving carbon dioxide gas, which is a carbon dioxide generating bath agent, in bath water using an apparatus having micropores.

従来、炭酸ガス発生入浴剤は直接浴槽に投与され、溶解しながら炭酸ガスを発生し、粗大な泡と接した浴槽水に炭酸ガスを溶解させていた。また、入浴剤が固形の際にはその周囲に発生した炭酸ガスの泡によって、入浴剤自体が浮きあがり、最後まで発生する炭酸ガスを浴槽水に吸収させることが困難であった。 Conventionally, a carbon dioxide generating bath agent is directly administered to a bath, generates carbon dioxide while dissolving, and dissolves carbon dioxide in bath water in contact with coarse bubbles. In addition, when the bathing agent is solid, the bathing agent itself is lifted up by bubbles of carbon dioxide gas generated around the bathing agent, and it is difficult to absorb the carbon dioxide gas generated until the end in the bath water.

発明が解決しようとする課題Problems to be solved by the invention

炭酸ガス発生入浴剤が発生する炭酸ガスを効率よく、安全かつ安価に浴槽水に溶解させること。 Dissolve the carbon dioxide gas generated by the carbon dioxide-generating bathing agent in bath water efficiently, safely and inexpensively.

課題を解決するための手段Means for solving the problem

本発明は、上記課題を解決するために、炭酸ガス入浴剤溶解部と微小孔を有する炭酸ガス拡散装置部の二部からなり、溶解部と拡散装置間に設置された微小孔のおよび拡散装置部に設けられた微小孔の両者にて、炭酸ガスの泡は微小となり、浴槽水と接する面積が格段に拡大し、かつ接する時間が長くなる。さらに本発明自身の重量により、浴槽内に安定して設置されることになり、入浴剤の周囲の泡による浮きあがりを防止し、最後まで入浴剤は炭酸ガスを水中で放散しつづけることとなる。この炭酸ガス泡の微小化、浴槽水と接する時間の延長、設置位置の安定化の三点から、効率よく炭酸ガスを浴槽水に溶解させることが可能となる。また、本発明により入浴剤溶解部に炭酸ガス発生剤と様々なハーブ、、乳化剤などの入浴剤をセットすることが可能となり、新たな入浴の楽しみを増やすことが可能となる。内部の炭酸ガスの発生により圧力が上昇した際は、浴槽水取り入れ孔から余分なガスが排出され危険性を回避できる。 In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention comprises two parts, a carbon dioxide bath solution dissolving part and a carbon dioxide diffusion device part having micropores, and a micropore diffusion device installed between the dissolution part and the diffusion device. In both of the micropores provided in the section, the bubbles of carbon dioxide gas become minute, the area in contact with the bath water is greatly expanded, and the contact time is increased. Furthermore, due to the weight of the present invention, it will be stably installed in the bathtub, preventing the foam from floating around the bathing agent, and the bathing agent will continue to dissipate carbon dioxide in water until the end. . Carbon dioxide can be efficiently dissolved in the bath water from the three points of miniaturization of the carbon dioxide bubbles, extension of the time in contact with the bath water, and stabilization of the installation position. Further, according to the present invention, it becomes possible to set a bathing agent such as a carbon dioxide generating agent, various herbs, and an emulsifier in the bathing agent dissolving portion, and it is possible to increase the pleasure of new bathing. When the pressure rises due to the generation of carbon dioxide inside, excess gas is discharged from the bathtub water intake hole, and the danger can be avoided.

発明の実施の態様Embodiments of the Invention

以下、本発明の実施の態様を図１を用いて説明する。本発明は基本的には、炭酸ガス拡散装置部（１）と入浴剤溶解部（２）からなる。また、本発明は金属、ガラス、高比重樹脂で作成されるため、水中に安定設置される。これを使用する際は、まず、入浴剤溶解部（２）に炭酸ガス発生入浴剤を設置する。次に炭酸ガス拡散装置部（１）を入浴剤溶解部（２）と組み合わせ浴槽内に設置する。入浴剤溶解部（２）に設けられた浴槽水取り入れ孔（５）から流入した浴槽水により入浴剤は反応し、炭酸ガスを発生する。発生した炭酸ガスは、入浴剤溶解部（２）と炭酸ガス拡散装置部（１）間に設けられた微小孔（３）を通って、炭酸ガス拡散装置部に移行する。炭酸ガス拡散装置部（１）に流入した炭酸ガスは発生量が少ないときにはそのまま拡散装置部に設けられた微小孔（４）を通して、微小泡となり浴槽水内に放出される。また、炭酸ガス発生量が多くなったときには、一定量の炭酸ガスが拡散装置部（１）内にとどまり微小孔からの放出が継続される。さらに発生量が多いときには炭酸ガスは、入浴剤溶解部に設けられた孔（５）から逆に排出され、内部の圧力が上昇する危険性は無い。 Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. The present invention basically comprises a carbon dioxide gas diffusion device part (1) and a bath salt dissolving part (2). In addition, since the present invention is made of metal, glass, and high specific gravity resin, it is stably installed in water. When this is used, first, a carbon dioxide generating bathing agent is installed in the bathing agent dissolving part (2). Next, the carbon dioxide diffusion device part (1) is installed in the bath tub in combination with the bath agent dissolving part (2). The bath agent reacts with the bath water flowing in from the bath water intake hole (5) provided in the bath agent dissolving part (2) to generate carbon dioxide gas. The generated carbon dioxide gas passes through the micropores (3) provided between the bath agent dissolving part (2) and the carbon dioxide gas diffusing device part (1) and moves to the carbon dioxide gas diffusing device part. When the amount of carbon dioxide flowing into the carbon dioxide diffusion device section (1) is small, the carbon dioxide gas passes through the micropores (4) provided in the diffusion device section as it is and is released into the bathtub water as microbubbles. When the amount of generated carbon dioxide increases, a certain amount of carbon dioxide remains in the diffusion device section (1) and continues to be released from the micropores. Further, when the amount of generated carbon dioxide is large, the carbon dioxide gas is discharged from the hole (5) provided in the bathing agent dissolving part, and there is no risk that the internal pressure increases.

以下、本発明を応用したその他の実施例を説明する。 Hereinafter, other embodiments to which the present invention is applied will be described.

図１では、基本的な樽状の形態を示しているが、炭酸ガス拡散装置部は微小孔があいていればいいため様々な形態をとることが可能である。 Although FIG. 1 shows a basic barrel shape, the carbon dioxide diffusion device section can take various forms because it only needs to have micropores.

図２には炭酸ガス拡散装置部（１）が長い棒状のものを示した。 FIG. 2 shows a long bar-shaped carbon dioxide gas diffusion device section (1).

図３には炭酸ガス拡散装置部（１）がキノコ状のものを示した。 FIG. 3 shows a mushroom-like carbon dioxide diffusion device (1).

図４には炭酸ガス拡散装置部（１）が動物状のものを示した。 FIG. 4 shows an animal-like carbon dioxide gas diffusing unit (1).

炭酸ガス拡散装置部は微小孔があればよいので、炭酸ガス拡散装置部に微小孔を直接あけても良いし、セラミックなどの微小孔を有する素材を埋め込んでも良い。 Since the carbon dioxide diffusion device section only needs to have micropores, micropores may be directly formed in the carbon dioxide diffusion device portion, or a material having micropores such as ceramic may be embedded.

図１の様に入浴剤溶解部と炭酸ガス拡散装置部に微小孔を有する隔壁があった方が、炭酸ガス溶解には有利であるが、図５のように入浴剤溶解部と炭酸ガス拡散装置部が一体化した形（７）の簡便型でも良い。 As shown in FIG. 1, it is advantageous to dissolve the bathing agent dissolving part and the carbon dioxide gas diffusing device part with the micropores for dissolving the carbon dioxide gas. However, as shown in FIG. A simple type (7) in which the device part is integrated may be used.

図５のような入浴剤溶解部と炭酸ガス拡散装置部が一体化したもの（７）は様々な形状をとることが可能である。 The thing (7) in which the bathing agent dissolving part and the carbon dioxide diffusion device part as shown in FIG. 5 are integrated can take various shapes.

本発明を用いれば、入浴剤自身が炭酸ガスを発生するものでなくとも、固形炭酸ガス発生剤と入浴剤を入浴剤溶解部（２）にまとめて設置する事が可能となり、新たな入浴剤の楽しみ方を提案することができる。 By using the present invention, even if the bathing agent itself does not generate carbon dioxide, it becomes possible to install the solid carbon dioxide generating agent and the bathing agent together in the bathing agent dissolving part (2). Can suggest how to enjoy.

入浴剤溶解部（２）の内側にメジャーの目印を準備しておき、入浴剤溶解部に粉末状の入浴剤を設置することも可能である。このようにすることで、本発明の従来の目的の他に、これまで蓋で計量する際湿ってしまうが多かった粉末状入浴剤を手際よく用いることも可能となる。 It is also possible to prepare a measure mark inside the bath salt dissolving part (2) and install a powdered bath agent in the bath salt dissolving part. By doing so, in addition to the conventional object of the present invention, it is also possible to use the powdered bathing agent that has been wet until now when measured with a lid, but skillfully.

本発明では、内圧が上昇した際には自然に浴槽水取り入れ孔からガスが排出される構造となっているが、適宜安全弁を入浴剤溶解部や炭酸ガス拡散装置部に設置してもよい。 In the present invention, when the internal pressure rises, the gas is naturally discharged from the bathtub water intake hole. However, a safety valve may be appropriately installed in the bath salt dissolving part or the carbon dioxide diffusion device part.
