【０００１】0001
本考案は、風呂の熱交換器を通して浴槽湯水を自然循環又は強制循環させて追 い焚きを行う風呂装置に関するものである。 This invention enables natural or forced circulation of bath water through the bath heat exchanger. The present invention relates to a bath device that produces hot water.
【０００２】0002
図７には従来の一般的な風呂装置が示されている。この風呂装置は自然循環タ イプのもので、浴槽１の側壁２に流入路３が接続され、この流入路３には浴槽湯 水の追い焚きを行う加熱手段としての風呂熱交換器４が接続されている。この風 呂熱交換器４の出口側には流出路５が接続されており、この流出路５の出口側は 前記流入路３よりも上側の浴槽１の側壁２に連通接続されている。図中、６はバ ーナであり、このバーナ６の燃焼により、流入路３から入り込む浴槽１の湯水を 風呂熱交換器４で加熱し、この加熱された湯水が流出路５を通って浴槽１に戻さ れ、浴槽湯水の自然循環が行われる。 FIG. 7 shows a conventional general bathing device. This bath device is a natural circulation system. An inflow path 3 is connected to the side wall 2 of the bathtub 1, and the inflow path 3 is connected to the side wall 2 of the bathtub 1. A bath heat exchanger 4 is connected as a heating means for reheating water. this wind An outflow passage 5 is connected to the outlet side of the heat exchanger 4, and the outlet side of this outflow passage 5 is It is connected to the side wall 2 of the bathtub 1 above the inflow path 3 . In the figure, 6 is a bar. By the combustion of this burner 6, the hot water in the bathtub 1 that enters from the inflow path 3 is The heated water is heated by the bath heat exchanger 4 and returned to the bathtub 1 through the outflow path 5. This allows natural circulation of the bath water.
【０００３】 図７の例では浴槽湯水の自然循環を促進するために、流入路３と流出路５との 間に循環ポンプ８を組み込んだ補助流路７が設けられ、循環ポンプ８の駆動によ り、流入路３の一部湯水を流出路５に吐出し、流入路３から風呂熱交換器４を経 て流出路５に至る追い焚き循環流路の流れを促進し、浴槽湯水の撹拌が効果的に 行われるようになっている。0003 In the example shown in Fig. 7, in order to promote the natural circulation of hot water in the bathtub, the inflow passage 3 and the outflow passage 5 are connected. An auxiliary flow path 7 incorporating a circulation pump 8 is provided between the two, and the circulation pump 8 is driven by the auxiliary flow path 7. Part of the hot water in the inflow path 3 is discharged to the outflow path 5, and the hot water is discharged from the inflow path 3 through the bath heat exchanger 4. This promotes the flow of the reheating circulation channel leading to the outflow channel 5, and effectively stirs the bath water. It is about to be done.
【０００４】 また、流入路３の入口側にはフィルタ10が設けられており、浴槽内の髪の毛等 の塵が追い焚き循環流路内に入り込まないようになっている。0004 In addition, a filter 10 is provided on the inlet side of the inflow channel 3 to prevent hair from entering the bathtub. This prevents dust from entering the reheating circulation flow path.
【０００５】 なお、図中、11は浴槽湯水の温度を検出する温度センサであり、12は給湯側の 熱交換器であり、注湯電磁弁13を開くことにより、熱交換機器12で加熱した湯を 追い焚き循環流路を介して浴槽１内に湯張りできるようになっている。そして、 浴槽湯水の追い焚き循環や湯張りの動作制御は制御装置14により行われている。[0005] In the figure, 11 is a temperature sensor that detects the temperature of hot water in the bathtub, and 12 is a temperature sensor on the hot water supply side. It is a heat exchanger, and by opening the hot water pouring solenoid valve 13, the hot water heated by the heat exchange device 12 is poured. Hot water can be filled in the bathtub 1 via the reheating circulation flow path. and, The control device 14 controls the reheating circulation of bath water and the operation of filling the bathtub with hot water.
【０００６】[0006]
風呂装置の長期使用により流入路３の入口側に設けたフィルタ10には髪の毛や 人体の垢等の塵や汚れが付着する。風呂装置の取り扱い説明書等では所定期間、 例えば１ヵ月毎にフィルタ10の清掃を行うべき旨が記載され、この記載事項に基 づいて定期的にフィルタ10の清掃を行うことが望まれている。 Due to long-term use of the bath equipment, the filter 10 installed on the inlet side of the inflow channel 3 may become contaminated with hair and other substances. Dust and dirt such as human body grime adhere to the product. In the instruction manual for bath equipment, etc., there is a specified period of time, For example, it is stated that the filter 10 should be cleaned every month, and based on this Therefore, it is desirable to periodically clean the filter 10.
【０００７】 しかしながら、取り扱い説明書通りにフィルタ10の清掃が行われることは非常 に稀であり、通常は、忙しさに紛れてフィルタ10の清掃時期になっているにもか かわらず、その清掃を怠る場合が多い。フィルタ10の清掃を怠ると、フィルタ10 に目詰まりが進行する結果、循環ポンプ８の湯水循環能力が次第に低下し、浴槽 湯水の撹拌が不十分となり、例えば、循環湯水の温度を温度センサ11により検出 し、この検出温度が予め与えられた設定温度になったときに風呂の沸かし動作や 追い焚き動作を停止する風呂方式としたとき、浴槽湯水の撹拌が不十分になるこ とで、浴槽湯水の均一な温度を検出することができず、設定温度に正確に風呂を 沸き上げたり追い焚きしたりすることができなくなるという問題が生じる。[0007] However, it is extremely unlikely that filter 10 will be cleaned according to the instruction manual. It's rare, and usually it's time to clean the filter 10 under the cover of busy schedules. However, cleaning is often neglected. If filter 10 is not cleaned, filter 10 As the clogging progresses, the hot water circulation ability of the circulation pump 8 gradually decreases, causing the bathtub to become clogged. If the hot water is not sufficiently stirred, for example, the temperature of the circulating hot water is detected by the temperature sensor 11. When this detected temperature reaches the preset temperature, the bath will start heating or When using a bath method that stops the reheating operation, stirring of the bath water may become insufficient. Because of this, it is not possible to detect the uniform temperature of the bath water, and the bath cannot be heated accurately to the set temperature. A problem arises in that it is no longer possible to boil or reheat the water.
【０００８】 本考案は上記従来の課題を解決するためになされたものであり、その目的は、 フィルタの目詰まりが生じたときには自動的にこれを検知してフィルタの清掃を 使用者に促すことができる風呂装置を提供することにある。[0008] This invention was made to solve the above conventional problems, and its purpose is to: Automatically detects when the filter becomes clogged and cleans the filter. To provide a bathing device that can prompt a user.
【０００９】[0009]
本考案は上記目的を達成するために、次のように構成されている。すなわち、 本考案は、浴槽の湯水を流入路から取り入れて加熱手段で加熱し、加熱された湯 水を流出路を通して浴槽内に出す湯水の追い焚き循環流路と、前記流入路から流 出路に至る湯水の流れを促進する循環ポンプと、前記流入路の入口側に設けられ るフィルタとを有する風呂装置において、前記追い焚き循環流路の水圧を検出す る圧力センサと、この圧力センサの検出圧力が予め与えられた判定基準範囲から 外れたときに動作信号を出力するフィルタ目詰まり判定手段と、このフィルタ目 詰まり判定手段からの動作信号を受けてフィルタの目詰まりを報知する報知手段 とを備えたことを特徴として構成されている。 In order to achieve the above object, the present invention is constructed as follows. That is, This invention takes hot water from the bathtub through the inflow channel and heats it with a heating means, and the heated water A reheating circulation flow path for discharging water into the bathtub through an outflow path, and a flow path for discharging water from the inflow path. A circulation pump that promotes the flow of hot water to the outlet, and a circulation pump provided on the inlet side of the inflow channel. In the bath device having a filter, the water pressure in the reheating circulation flow path is detected. The detected pressure of this pressure sensor is within a predetermined judgment reference range. A filter clogging determination means that outputs an operation signal when the filter is removed; Notifying means for receiving an operation signal from the clogging determining means and notifying that the filter is clogged It is configured with the following features.
【００１０】0010
上記構成の本考案において、例えば圧力センサを追い焚き循環流路に設けた場 合、流入路の入口側に設けたフィルタに塵や汚れが付着して目詰まりが進行する と、循環ポンプの湯水循環能力は低下し、圧力センサの検出圧力は目詰まりのな いときよりも次第に低下していく。この検出圧力が低下して予め与えられた判定 基準範囲から外れたときに、フィルタ目詰まり判定手段はフィルタの目詰まり状 態と判定して動作信号を出力する。報知手段はその動作信号を受けてフィルタが 目詰まり状態にあることをブザー等により報知し、使用者にフィルタの清掃を促 す。 In the present invention with the above configuration, for example, if a pressure sensor is installed in the reheating circulation flow path, In this case, dust and dirt adhere to the filter installed on the inlet side of the inlet channel, causing it to become clogged. As a result, the hot water circulation ability of the circulation pump decreases, and the pressure detected by the pressure sensor decreases due to clogging. It gradually decreases from before. This detection pressure decreases and the predetermined judgment is made. When the filter is out of the reference range, the filter clogging determination means detects the condition of the filter clogging. It determines that it is in a state and outputs an operation signal. The notification means receives the operation signal and the filter is activated. A buzzer etc. alerts the user that the filter is clogged and prompts the user to clean the filter. vinegar.
【００１１】[0011]
以下、本考案の実施例を図面に基づいて説明する。なお、本実施例の説明にお いて、従来例と同一の名称部分には同一符号を付し、その詳細な重複説明は省略 する。図１には本考案に係る風呂装置の一実施例の模式構成が示されている。こ の実施例の風呂装置も前記従来例と同様に自然循環タイプのものであるが、本実 施例では、湯水の追い焚き循環流路内、具体的には風呂熱交換器４側の流路に水 圧を検出する圧力センサ15を設けている。さらに、本実施例の装置にはフィルタ 10の目詰まりを自動的に検出して目詰まり状態を報知するフィルタ目詰まりの検 出報知手段が設けられている。 Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described based on the drawings. In addition, in the explanation of this example, The same reference numerals are given to the same name parts as in the conventional example, and detailed redundant explanations are omitted. do. FIG. 1 shows a schematic configuration of an embodiment of a bathing device according to the present invention. child The bathing device of the embodiment is also of the natural circulation type like the conventional example, but this In the example, water is placed in the hot water reheating circulation flow path, specifically in the flow path on the bath heat exchanger 4 side. A pressure sensor 15 is provided to detect pressure. Furthermore, the device of this example has a filter. Filter clogging detection that automatically detects 10 clogs and notifies you of the clogging status. A notification means is provided.
【００１２】 このフィルタ目詰まりの検出報知手段は、図２に示すように、フィルタ目詰ま り判定手段16と、メモリ17と、リモコン18等に設けられる報知手段としてのブザ ー20により構成されている。フィルタ目詰まり判定手段16は圧力センサ15からの 圧力検出信号を受け、検出圧力と予めメモリ17に与えられている水圧の判定基準 範囲とを比較し、検出圧力が判定基準範囲から低下して外れたときに動作信号を 出力する。0012 As shown in FIG. 2, this filter clogging detection and notification means detects filter clogging. 16, a memory 17, and a buzzer as a notification means provided on a remote control 18 or the like. -20. The filter clogging determination means 16 receives the signal from the pressure sensor 15. Upon receiving the pressure detection signal, the detection pressure and water pressure judgment criteria given in advance in memory 17 are determined. Compare the range with Output.
【００１３】 図３はフィルタ10に目詰まりがない正常時のときに循環ポンプ８を起動して圧 力センサ15の検出圧力の変化を測定したグラフで、循環ポンプ８を起動すると、 浴槽１内からフィルタ10を通るときの圧力損失によって、検出水圧が循環ポンプ ８を起動する前の静圧Ｐ0 よりも少し低下した圧力Ｐ1 として検出される。この ことを考慮し、メモリ17には上限値を静圧のＰ0 とし、下限値をフィルタ10の目 詰まりがない正常時に検出される圧力Ｐ1 よりも低いＰ2 としたＰ0 からＰ2 に 至る圧力範囲を判定基準範囲として記憶されており、フィルタ目詰まり判定手段 16は検出圧力がＰ2 よりも低下したときに動作信号をリモコン18のブザー20に加 えるのである。FIG. 3 is a graph showing the changes in the pressure detected by the pressure sensor 15 when the circulation pump 8 is started during normal operation when the filter 10 is not clogged. Due to the pressure loss when passing through the filter 10, the detected water pressure is detected as a pressure P1 slightly lower than the static pressure P0 before starting the circulation pump 8. Taking this into consideration, the memory 17 has an upper limit set as static pressure P 0 and a lower limit set as P 2 which is lower than the pressure P 1 detected in normal conditions when the filter 10 is not clogged . The pressure range reaching P2 is stored as a determination reference range, and the filter clogging determining means 16 applies an operation signal to the buzzer 20 of the remote control 18 when the detected pressure falls below P2 .
【００１４】 ブザー20はフィルタ目詰まり判定手段16から動作信号を受けて報知音を発し、 使用者にフィルタ10の清掃を促す。[0014] The buzzer 20 receives an operation signal from the filter clogging determining means 16 and emits a notification sound. Urge the user to clean the filter 10.
【００１５】 この実施例は上記のように構成されており、次に、図５のフローチャートに基 づき、本実施例の風呂装置の動作を説明する。まず、リモコン18等に設けられる 追焚スイッチがオンされると、ステップ101 で循環ポンプ８が起動し、浴槽湯水 の循環が開始される。そして風呂熱交換器４のバーナ６の燃焼が開始し（ステッ プ102 ）、ステップ103 で追い焚き循環流路内の水圧が圧力センサ15により検出 される。[0015] This embodiment is configured as described above, and next, based on the flowchart of FIG. Next, the operation of the bath apparatus of this embodiment will be explained. First, the remote control 18 etc. When the reheating switch is turned on, the circulation pump 8 is started in step 101, and the hot water in the bathtub is circulation begins. Then, combustion of the burner 6 of the bath heat exchanger 4 starts (step step 102), the water pressure in the reheating circulation flow path is detected by the pressure sensor 15 in step 103. be done.
【００１６】 ステップ104 では検出圧力Ｐ1 がメモリ17に予め与えられている判定基準範囲 にあるか否かを判定し、検出圧力Ｐ1 が図４に示すように判定基準範囲から低下 して外れたときにフィルタ目詰まり判定手段16から動作信号が出力される。In step 104, it is determined whether or not the detected pressure P1 is within the judgment reference range given in advance in the memory 17, and as shown in FIG. When this happens, the filter clogging determining means 16 outputs an operation signal.
【００１７】 この動作信号が出力されたときに、ステップ105 でバーナ６の追い焚き燃焼が 停止され、続いてステップ106 で循環ポンプ８が停止され、ステップ107 でブザ ー20が鳴らされフィルタ10の清掃を促す。[0017] When this operation signal is output, reheating combustion of burner 6 is started in step 105. Then, in step 106, the circulation pump 8 is stopped, and in step 107, the buzzer is turned on. -20 will sound to prompt you to clean the filter 10.
【００１８】 これに対し、ステップ104 で検出圧力Ｐ1 が判定基準範囲内にあるときには、 フィルタ10の目詰まりがない状態なので、ステップ108 から111 にかけて通常の 追い焚き動作を行う。まずステップ108 で温度センサ11の検出温度が予めリモコ ン17等で設定された追い焚き設定温度になったか否かの判断が行われ、検出温度 が設定温度よりも低いときにはステップ103 で圧力検出を行い、ステップ104 で その検出圧力が前記判定基準範囲内か否かの判断を行いフィルタ10の目詰まり状 態の検知動作を繰り返す。浴槽内の温度が追い焚き設定温度になったときには、 バーナ６の追い焚き燃焼を停止して循環ポンプ８を停止し、ブザー20によって沸 き上がりを知らせる。On the other hand, when the detected pressure P 1 is within the determination reference range in step 104, the filter 10 is not clogged, so the normal reheating operation is performed in steps 108 to 111. First, in step 108, it is determined whether the temperature detected by the temperature sensor 11 has reached the reheating set temperature preset with the remote control 17, etc., and if the detected temperature is lower than the set temperature, pressure is detected in step 103. In step 104, it is determined whether the detected pressure is within the determination reference range or not, and the operation of detecting the clogging state of the filter 10 is repeated. When the temperature inside the bathtub reaches the reheating set temperature, the reheating combustion of the burner 6 is stopped, the circulation pump 8 is stopped, and a buzzer 20 notifies the user that the bath has heated up.
【００１９】 本実施例によれば、フィルタ10の目詰まり状態が圧力センサ15の検出圧力を利 用して自動的に判断され、フィルタ10が目詰まり状態にあるときには、報知動作 が行われるので、これにより使用者は適切な時期にフィルタ10の清掃を行うこと ができ、常にフィルタ10に目詰まりのない正常な状態で風呂装置の運転を行うこ とが可能となる。[0019] According to this embodiment, the clogging state of the filter 10 can be determined using the detected pressure of the pressure sensor 15. If the filter 10 is clogged, a notification will be activated. This allows the user to clean the filter 10 at an appropriate time. The bath equipment can always be operated with the filter 10 free from clogging. becomes possible.
【００２０】 なお、本考案は上記実施例に限定されることはなく、様々な実施の態様を採り 得る。例えば、上記実施例では、圧力センサ15を風呂熱交換器４側の通路に設け たが、この圧力センサ15は追い焚き循環流路の任意の他の位置に設けることがで きる。この圧力センサ15を補助流路７の出口側よりも下流側の流出路５に設けた ときにはフィルタ10の目詰まりがない状態で循環ポンプ８を起動すると、圧力セ ンサ15は循環ポンプ８の正圧を受けて図３に示す静圧Ｐ0 よりも高い鎖線で示す 圧力Ｐ1 を検出し、フィルタ10の目詰まりが進行するにつれて検出圧力Ｐ1 ′は 徐々に低下する。[0020]The present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments, and may be implemented in various ways. For example, in the above embodiment, the pressure sensor 15 was provided in the passage on the bath heat exchanger 4 side, but this pressure sensor 15 may be provided in any other position in the reheating circulation flow path. When this pressure sensor 15 is installed in the outflow path 5 downstream of the outlet side of the auxiliary flow path 7, when the circulation pump 8 is started with the filter 10 not clogged, the pressure sensor 15 detects the positive pressure of the circulation pump 8. In response, a pressure P 1 indicated by a chain line, which is higher than the static pressure P 0 shown in FIG. 3, is detected, and as the filter 10 becomes clogged, the detected pressure P 1 ' gradually decreases.
【００２１】 このことから、圧力センサ15を循環ポンプ８の正圧を受ける位置に設けたとき には、フィルタ目詰まりを判断する判定基準範囲を例えば図３のＰ3 ′とＰ0 の 範囲で設定し、これをメモリ17に記憶することになる。これら判定基準範囲のメ モリ17への記憶作業は設計段階で固定的に行ってもよく、あるいは、フィルタ10 が目詰まりのない状態で風呂装置を運転するときに循環ポンプ８を起動して圧力 センサ15によって得られる検出圧力を求め、この検出圧力よりも余裕を持って少 し高い圧力を上限値として与え、フィルタ10の目詰まりを判断する圧力を下限値 として与え、この上限値と下限値の圧力範囲を判定基準範囲として自動的にメモ リ17に記憶させるようにしてもよい。From this, when the pressure sensor 15 is installed at a position that receives the positive pressure of the circulation pump 8, the criterion range for determining filter clogging is set, for example, in the range of P 3 ' and P 0 in FIG. , this will be stored in memory 17. These criteria ranges may be stored in the memory 17 permanently at the design stage, or when the bath equipment is operated with the filter 10 not clogged, the circulation pump 8 is started and the pressure sensor is stored in the memory 17. Find the detected pressure obtained by 15, give a pressure slightly higher than this detected pressure as the upper limit with a margin, give the lower limit the pressure that determines whether the filter 10 is clogged, and calculate the pressure between this upper limit and lower limit. The range may be automatically stored in the memory 17 as the determination reference range.
【００２２】 また、圧力センサ15はフィルタ10の目詰まり検出用として専用的に設けること も可能であるが、圧力センサの検出水圧により浴槽１内の水位を検出し、検出水 位が湯張り設定水位となったときに湯張りを停止するようなシステムを持つ風呂 装置においては、この水位検出用の圧力センサをフィルタの目詰まり検出用のセ ンサとして兼用させることができる。[0022] In addition, the pressure sensor 15 must be provided exclusively for detecting clogging of the filter 10. However, the water level in the bathtub 1 is detected by the water pressure detected by the pressure sensor, and the detected water level is A bath with a system that stops filling water when the water level reaches the set water level. In the equipment, this pressure sensor for water level detection is used as a sensor for detecting filter clogging. It can also be used as a sensor.
【００２３】 さらに、上記実施例では、自然循環タイプの風呂装置について説明したが、本 考案は、図６に示すような強制循環タイプの風呂装置に対しても適用されるもの である。[0023] Furthermore, in the above embodiment, a natural circulation type bath device was explained, but in this embodiment, The invention can also be applied to forced circulation type bath equipment as shown in Figure 6. It is.
【００２４】 さらに、上記実施例では、報知手段をブザー20により構成したが、この報知手 段は、フィルタの目詰まり状態を聴覚や視覚によって報知できるものであれば他 の手段でもよく、例えば、リモコン18の表示部にフィルタの絵を設け、この絵を 点滅するようにしたり、液晶等の表示部にフィルタの交換を促すメッセージを文 字によって表してもよく、あるいは、フィルタ交換のメッセージを合成音により 発声させるようにしてもよい。[0024] Furthermore, in the above embodiment, the notification means is constituted by the buzzer 20, but this notification means The stage may be any other type as long as it can notify the clogged condition of the filter audibly or visually. For example, a picture of a filter may be provided on the display of the remote control 18, and this picture may be displayed. Make the filter blink or display a message on the LCD display to remind you to replace the filter. Alternatively, the message to change the filter may be expressed by a synthesized sound. It may also be made to vocalize.
【００２５】 さらに、上記実施例ではフィルタ10の目詰まりが検出されたときには直ちにブ ザー20で報知したが、このフィルタ10の目詰まり状態の報知は必ずしも直ちに行 う必要はなく、次の風呂装置のスイッチオンのときに報知するようにしてもよい 。[0025] Furthermore, in the above embodiment, when the filter 10 is detected to be clogged, the filter 10 is immediately blocked. Although the filter 10 is notified by the user 20, the notification of the clogged condition of the filter 10 is not necessarily immediately carried out. It is not necessary to do so, and the notification may be made the next time the bath equipment is turned on. .
【００２６】[0026]
【考案の効果】 本考案は、フィルタの目詰まりを追い焚き循環流路の検出圧力の低下を利用し て検出し、フィルタの目詰まりが検出されたときにはこれを報知してフィルタの 清掃を促すように構成したものであるから、フィルタの目詰まりが生じた適切な 時期にフィルタの清掃を行うことができ、常にフィルタの目詰まりのない正常状 態で風呂装置を運転することが可能となる。[Effect of the idea] This invention uses the drop in detected pressure in the circulation flow path to reheat filter clogging. If a clogged filter is detected, it will notify you and prevent the filter from clogging. The structure is designed to encourage cleaning, so if the filter is clogged, The filter can be cleaned at regular intervals, and the filter is always in a normal state without clogging. It becomes possible to operate the bath equipment in the state.
