Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve the function to sterilize bath water in a downstream circulation flow passage by providing an electrolytic bath for bath water in a circulation flow passage right preceded by a water suction port. SOLUTION: Bath water in a bath tub 1 is sucked in a circulation flow passage 16 by a pump 12 and generally, large refuse is removed by a top filter having the water suction port 11. An organic substance in bath water is decomposed by making contact with microorganisms imbedded in, for example, ceramic grains, in a bath water purifying device 13 and then guided to a heat insulation device 14 with a built-in heater and bath water is heated. In which case, an electrolytic bath 21 for bath water is arranged in a circulation flow passage 16 right preceded by the water suction port 11. In this case, through electrolysis of bath water, a sterilizing function is provided and bath water is then sterilized in a downstream circulation flow passage 16. Quantities of hypochlorous acid and hypochlorite ions, having sterilizing action, are contained in bath water and sufficient sterilization of bath water is performed in the process of a flow through a circulation flow passage 16 situated downstream therefrom.

FIG. 2 is an overall view showing another example of the bath water circulation device of the present invention. Then, a branch flow path 17 is formed in the circulation flow path 16 immediately after the water intake port 11, and an electrolysis tank 21 is provided here. The flow rate of the bath water is slowed down by the branch flow path 17 to electrolyze the bath water in the electrolysis tank 21, so that the bath water comes into contact with the electrode surface for a long time due to the slow flow rate of the bath water. Thus, electrolysis can be performed with low power. Therefore, the content of the product which brings about the sterilizing power in the bath water increases, and the sterilizing time in the circulation flow path in the bath water circulating device can be sufficiently obtained.
