【産業上の利用分野】本発明は浴槽装置に係り、特に浴
槽湯の清浄化の方法及びその装置に関するものである。BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a bathtub apparatus, and more particularly to a method and apparatus for cleaning bathtub hot water.
【０００２】[0002]

れるようになった。2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, hot water in a bathtub is forcibly circulated by using a circulation pump and treated by a filter device, an activated stone tank, etc. installed in the hot water circulation path to remove dirt and activate the hot water. A bathtub cleaning device for cleaning has been developed and used.
【０００３】また最近は、清浄化装置は単に湯の汚れを
取り除いたり活性化するだけでなく、ヒータによって加
熱も行い湯温を絶えず適温に保ち２４時間いつでも快適
に入浴できるようにしている。Further, recently, the cleaning device not only removes and activates the dirt in the hot water, but also heats it by a heater so that the hot water temperature is constantly kept at an appropriate temperature so that the user can take a comfortable bath at any time for 24 hours.
【０００４】このように清浄化装置の利用により２４時
間風呂とする場合には、湯の清浄度を保つとともに悪臭
や細菌が発生したりするのを防ぐため殺菌処理も行う必
要が生じた。As described above, when the bath is used for 24 hours by using the cleaning device, it is necessary to perform sterilization treatment in order to maintain the cleanliness of the hot water and prevent the generation of bad odors and bacteria.
【０００５】浴槽湯の清浄化装置における殺菌は、空気

ゾン発生装置すなわちオゾナイザーを利用して生成した
オゾン化空気を利用してのオゾン殺菌が、装置が小型で
比較的安価な殺菌法であることから多く利用されてい
る。The sterilization in the bath water purifying device is carried out by ozone sterilization using ozonized air generated by using a high-pressure discharge type ozone generator, that is, an ozonizer, for converting oxygen in the air into ozone by high-pressure discharge. However, since the device is small and is a relatively inexpensive sterilization method, it is widely used.
【０００６】この場合のオゾン殺菌は、清浄化処理し終

った。In the ozone sterilization in this case, the ozone generated by the ozonizer is provided with an aspirator type ozone inhaler for accelerating the flow velocity of the hot water to a negative pressure at the jet portion of the hot water after the cleaning treatment. It was a method of sterilizing ozone by jetting the liquefied air together with hot water from the jet nozzle into the bath.
【０００７】[0007]
【発明が解決しようとする課題】しかしながら、前記し
たような方法でオゾン殺菌を行った場合、高濃度のオゾ
ン化空気が浴槽中に噴出されしかも湯中へオゾン化空気
が余り効率良く混入されないこともあつて、未反応のオ
ゾンが浴室内に多量に放出される結果となる。However, when ozone sterilization is performed by the above-mentioned method, high concentration ozonized air is ejected into the bath and the ozonized air is not mixed into the hot water very efficiently. As a result, a large amount of unreacted ozone is released into the bathroom.
【０００８】この結果、入浴者に不快なオゾン臭を嗅が
せるだけでなく健康への害まで心配させることとなる。[0008] As a result, not only does the bather smell an unpleasant ozone odor, but also he is anxious about the health hazard.
【０００９】このような問題を避けるためには、浴室内

の換気は行えず、また排気を吸着剤により分解して処理

吸着剤に湿気が付着してオゾンの分解が効果的に行えな
い。In order to avoid such a problem, it is necessary to improve the ventilation in the bathroom, but since it is a bathroom, excessive ventilation cannot be performed, and the exhaust gas may be decomposed by an adsorbent to be treated. Since the bath water is treated, the humidity of the exhaust gas is high,
Moisture adheres to the adsorbent and ozone cannot be decomposed effectively.
【００１０】本発明は、前記したような従来技術の欠点

殺菌方法とその装置を提供することを目的とする。The present invention solves the above-mentioned drawbacks of the prior art, and provides a sterilizing method and its apparatus in a bathtub water cleaning apparatus that can effectively perform ozone sterilization and that also takes sufficient measures against ozone discharge. The purpose is to do.

清浄化装置である。That is, according to the present invention, the bath water is sprayed into the ozonized air stored in the forced circulation pipe by the circulation pump to sterilize it, and the stored ozonized air sterilizes the hot water. This is a method for cleaning bath water to sterilize the hot water by exhausting it when the exhaust concentration reaches the exhaust concentration due to the treatment and storing the treated concentration of ozonized air again. An ozonized air storage tank equipped with an ozonized air intake / exhaust port and a bath water spray nozzle is provided, and a cleaning treatment tank is also used as the ozonized air storage tank. It is a cleaning device.

ゾン殺菌が貯溜されたオゾン化空気の中に浴槽湯を噴霧
して行われるので湯とオゾン化空気との接触面積が広
く、殺菌が効果的であるとともにオゾンの利用効率が高
く未反応オゾンが殆ど残らない。The present invention is constructed as described above. First, ozone sterilization is carried out by spraying bath water into the stored ozonized air, so that the contact area between the hot water and ozonized air is wide, and sterilization is performed. Is effective and the utilization efficiency of ozone is high, and almost no unreacted ozone remains.

すれば何ら問題が生じない。For this reason, the ozone concentration of the stored ozonized air is checked during the sterilization process, and the ozone in the ozonized air is consumed by the sterilization process and the concentration may be exhausted. If the gas is exhausted when it has dropped to a level that does not exist, no problem occurs.

る。As described above, when hot water is sprayed from the bath water spray nozzle 15 into the ozonized air stored in the activated stone tank 12 for sterilization, the ozone concentration in the ozonized air gradually decreases. After that, the sterilizing effect will almost disappear and at the same time, the exhaust concentration will be no problem even if exhausted.

る。To detect whether or not the ozonized air has reached the exhaust gas concentration, the ozone concentration meter is used to directly detect the concentration, or by experiments beforehand, the spray time of the bath water and the degree of decrease in the ozone concentration are determined. The relationship is checked and the timing of exhaust is known by the control device 26 by time management.
【００３２】いずれにしろ、活性石タンク１２に貯溜さ

されたなら、制御装置２６の制御によつて排気管２０の
電磁弁２１が開かれオゾン化空気の排気が行われる。In any case, when it is detected that the concentration of the ozonized air stored in the activated stone tank 12 reaches the exhaust concentration, the solenoid valve 21 of the exhaust pipe 20 is opened by the control of the control device 26. Then, the ozonized air is exhausted.

制御装置２６の制御によつて電磁弁２１を閉じる。When the ozonized air is exhausted, the hot water in the activated stone tank 12 is released from the pressure that was being pressed, so that the water level rises, and the water level rises to a predetermined position and the exhaust is completed. If the float switch 25 detects,
The solenoid valve 21 is closed under the control of the controller 26.
【００３４】排気管２０の電磁弁２１が閉じられてオゾ

始される。When the solenoid valve 21 of the exhaust pipe 20 is closed and the exhaust of the ozonized air is finished, the air pump 17 and the ozonizer 18 are operated again by the control of the controller 26, and the solenoid valve 19 is opened to open the ozone. Air supply pipe 1
The supply of ozonized air from 6 to the activated stone tank 12 is started.

Since the jet nozzle 23 is attached, the hot water is jetted as a jet flow together with the air taken in from the intake pipe 24 by the aspirator effect, and becomes a so-called bubble bath.

の変化等によつて確認されるまで続ける。At the first step S1, spraying of the bath water into the ozonized air storage tank is started, and at the second step S2, the ozonized air generated by the ozonizer is sucked into the tank. The accumulation of a predetermined amount is continued until it is confirmed in the third step S3, for example, by the change of the water level in the above embodiment.

る。Thereafter, while spraying the bath water into the ozonized air, the ozone concentration in the air is measured as the fourth step S4, and at the fifth step S5, even if the concentration is a predetermined exhaust gas, the exhaust gas concentration does not cause any problem. Continue until confirmed.

The relationship with changes in ozone concentration is sought in advance.
In step S4, the spray time of the bath water is measured to confirm whether the spray time has reached a predetermined time.

The sterilization of all bath water is set as the seventh step S7 and is continued until it is confirmed that the operation of the apparatus is stopped.

を提供する。EFFECTS OF THE INVENTION The present invention has the above-described structure and operation. Since ozone sterilization is performed in a state in which bath water is atomized, the contact area with ozonized air is large and effective, and ozone is also used. Since the sterilized air is exhausted at the stage where the sterilization process lowers the exhaust concentration, unreacted ozone is not mixed in the bathtub, and there is no fear of causing an unpleasant odor to the bather or causing any health hazard. Moreover, a cleaning device for bath water is provided that does not require a special device for ozone exhaust treatment.
