2. Description of the Related Art Generally, even if a desired hot water temperature is initially set in a bathtub, if the hot water temperature is left as it is, the hot water temperature is gradually lowered by natural heat radiation. Also, when a person takes a bath, the hot water temperature drops. Therefore, in order to always maintain a desired hot water temperature and enjoy a comfortable bath, it is necessary to reheat the hot water in the bathtub.

Therefore, in the prior art, when the water level sensor detects an increase in the water level in the bathtub while the heat retention mode is set, it is determined that bathing has been performed and the hot water temperature in the bathtub is predetermined. There is provided an automatic bath device that automatically reheats until the hot water temperature (hereinafter referred to as the set hot water temperature Ts) is reached (for example, JP-A-3-
5662).

At this time, if the actual hot water temperature T F of the bathtub is higher than the set hot water temperature Ts (T F ≧ Ts), there is no need for additional heating operation, so the circulation pump is stopped (step 6).

On the other hand, in step 5, if the actual hot water temperature T F of the bathtub is lower than the set hot water temperature Ts (T F <Ts), the heat exchanger is heated until the hot water temperature T F reaches the set hot water temperature Ts. The burner is ignited to perform the additional heating operation (step 7).

In step 5, the set hot water temperature Ts is used as a standard for determining whether or not the additional heating operation is started, but this standard may be set lower than the set hot water temperature Ts. In the following description, the reference for starting the additional heating operation is expressed as the set hot water temperature Ts, but the reference for starting the additional heating operation may be lower than the set hot water temperature Ts.

As described above, in the conventional automatic bath device, the bathing is detected and the bath temperature T of the bathtub is detected.

For example, in winter, since the outside air temperature is low, it is desired to warm the body as soon as possible, and the bath temperature is significantly lowered due to a person taking a bath. Therefore, when bathing is detected and the hot water temperature TF is lower than the set hot water temperature Ts, if the reheating is immediately performed, the decrease in the hot water temperature is suppressed to a small level and the body is warmed without feeling lukewarm. So convenient.

On the other hand, in summer, the outside air temperature is high, so that there is not a strong demand for warming up the body as early as in winter, and the decrease in hot water temperature due to a person taking a bath is slight. Therefore, even if bathing is detected and the hot water temperature T F is somewhat lower than the set hot water temperature T s, it is possible to warm the body without feeling lukewarm with the hot water temperature T F.

Therefore, when bathing, the hot water temperature T F is set to the set hot water temperature Ts.
If it is reheated more often than necessary even if it is somewhat lower than that, the bather feels hot and rather feels uncomfortable, and the amount of gas burned increases, which is uneconomical.

The present invention has been made in order to solve the above-mentioned problems. Even when the hot water temperature in the bathtub is lower than the preset hot water temperature at the time of bathing, the conventional reheating operation is not always performed. In other words, it is an object to reduce wasteful gas combustion as much as possible without impairing comfortable bathing, by making it possible to determine whether or not the additional heating operation is necessary according to the level of the outside air temperature.

That is, in the present invention, the warming means detects the hot water temperature of the bathtub every predetermined period when there is no bathing detection output from the hot water bathing detecting means, and the hot water temperature of the bathtub is higher than the desired hot water temperature. When the temperature is low, the hot water temperature of the bathtub is prioritized over the first hot water heating means in response to the hot water heating output from the hot water heating means until the desired hot water temperature is reached and the hot water bathing detection means. And a second reheating means for performing a reheating operation until the desired hot water temperature is reached, and an outside air temperature detecting means for directly or indirectly detecting the outside air temperature and a detection output of the outside air temperature detecting means. On the basis of the above, when the outside air temperature is higher than a predetermined reference temperature set in advance, the additional heating operation canceling means for canceling the additional heating operation by the second additional heating means is included.

In the above structure, the first reheating means of the heat retaining means detects the hot water temperature of the bathtub every predetermined period when there is no bathing detection output from the hot water bathing detecting means, and then the hot water temperature of the bathtub is preset. When the temperature is lower than the desired hot water temperature, the additional heating operation is performed until the desired hot water temperature is reached. That is, when there is no bathing, the hot water is heated to a preset desired hot water temperature every time the hot water temperature in the bathtub decreases.

The additional heating operation canceling means does not cancel the operation of the second additional heating means when the outside air temperature is equal to or lower than a preset reference temperature, such as in winter. Therefore, the second reheating means performs the reheating operation in response to the bathing detection output from the bathing detection means until the hot water temperature of the bathtub reaches the desired hot water temperature in preference to the first hot water heating means. In other words, if there is a bath, the hot water temperature of the bathtub can be raised to a preset desired hot water temperature.

As described above, according to the present invention, even if there is a bath and the hot water temperature is lower than the set hot water temperature, the necessity of the additional heating operation is determined according to the level of the outside air temperature, so that a comfortable bath is possible. It is possible to reduce wasteful gas combustion as much as possible without damaging it.
