Abstract

PURPOSE: A bathtub is provided to help a user to take a bath to stimulate the blood circulation by putting half of the body of the user into the water in the tub, not by putting the whole body of the user into the water, as the tub has a sitting area in the front end or the rear end. CONSTITUTION: The bathtub(10) includes a sitting area(20) adjusting the water surface in order that the user sits on the area in the front end or the rear end of the tub; a sitting area(20) extruded from the bottom of the tub; a heater built in the tub; a heat insulating material covered with the outside of the heater to keep the heat from the heater warm inside the tub; and a piezoelectric sensor(22) and a remote controller(30) which operate the heater.

Description

욕조{A bath}Bath {A bath}

본 발명은 욕조에 관한 것으로서, 특히 몸전체를 욕조에 담그지 않고 하반신만을 욕조에 담근 상태에서 목욕을 하므로서 혈액순환을 촉진하는 하반욕에 접합한 욕조에 관한것이다.The present invention relates to a bath, and more particularly, to a bath bonded to a lower bath that promotes blood circulation by bathing in the state in which only the lower body is soaked in the bath without dipping the entire body.

일반적으로 욕조의 바닥은 평면으로 이루어져 있으므로 입욕자가 욕조에 들어갈 경우 그 담겨지는 수면의 조정이 용이하지 않다. 최근들어 입욕자가 상반신은 수면으로 노출시키고 하반신은 욕조에 담그게 하므로서 하반신의 뜨건운 혈기가 상반신으로 순환하게 하는 하반욕이 유행하고 있으면, 이러한 하반욕은 의학적으로도 혈액순환에 많은 도움이 되는 것으로 평가되고 있다.In general, since the bottom of the bath is flat, it is not easy to adjust the contained water when the bather enters the bath. Recently, when the bather is exposed to the upper body to sleep and the lower body to bathe in the lower half of the body to circulate the hot blood circulation to the upper body, such a lower bath is medically helpful for blood circulation It is evaluated.

한편, 이러한 하반욕을 하다 보면 욕조내의 물이 식을 우려가 있고, 이러한 경우, 뜨거운 물을 다시 보충하기 위하여 입욕자가 물속에서 나와서 이동하여야 하는 문제점이 있다. 또한 입욕자의 몸이 욕조의 바닥에 닿게 하여 편안한 자세를 취할 경우 상반신 대부분이 욕조내로 입욕되어 하반욕에 의한 혈액순환 촉진 효과를 기대할 수 없다.On the other hand, while taking the lower half of the bath there is a risk that the water in the bathtub cools, in this case, there is a problem that the bather must move out of the water in order to replenish the hot water. In addition, when the bather's body is in a comfortable position by touching the bottom of the bathtub, most of the upper body is bathed in the bathtub, and thus the blood circulation promoting effect of the lower half bath cannot be expected.

본 발명은 이러한 상술한 문제점을 해결하기 위하 것으로서, 몸전체를 욕조에 담그지 않고 하반신만을 욕조에 담근 상태에서 목욕을 하므로서 혈액순환을 촉진하는 하반욕에 접합한 욕조를 제공하는데 그 목적이 있다.The present invention is to solve the above-described problems, it is an object of the present invention to provide a bath bonded to the lower half bath to promote blood circulation by taking a bath in the state in which only the lower body is soaked in the tub without dipping the whole body.

상술한 목적은 욕조에 있어서, 상기 욕조의 길이 방향 선단 또는 후단에 입욕자가 앉을 수 있도록 형성되어 지는 입욕수면 조정부재를 포함하는 것을 특징으로 하는 욕조에 의하여 달성된다.The above object is achieved by a bath, characterized in that the bath comprises a bathing surface adjustment member which is formed to allow the bather to sit at the front or rear end in the longitudinal direction of the bath.

이하, 첨부된 도면을 참조하여 본 발명에 대하여 상세히 설명한다.Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings will be described in detail with respect to the present invention.

도 1은 본 발명에 의한 욕조의 정면도이고, 도 2는 본 발명에 의한 욕조의 평면도이고, 도 3은 본 발명에 의한 욕조의 사시도이고, 도 4는 도 3의 A-A' 의 정단면도로서, 본 발명에 의한 욕조(10)는 그 외벽에 보온제(13)가 덮혀지고, 보온제(13)와 플라스틱(11)사이에는 히터(절연코일: 12)이 전면에 배열된다.1 is a front view of the bath according to the present invention, FIG. 2 is a plan view of the bath according to the present invention, FIG. 3 is a perspective view of the bath according to the present invention, and FIG. 4 is a front sectional view of AA ′ of FIG. In the bathtub 10 according to the present invention, a heat insulating agent 13 is covered on an outer wall thereof, and a heater (insulation coil) 12 is arranged on the front surface between the heat insulating agent 13 and the plastic 11.

욕조(10)의 내부벽에는 온도감지부재(22)이 장착되어지며, 욕조(10)의 길이 방향 선단 또는 후단에는 입욕자가 앉을 수 있는 입욕수면 조정부재(20)가 형성되어 진다. 입욕수면 조정부재(20)는 욕조(10)의 길이 방향 선단 또는 후단에서 욕조의 평면으로부터 수직 방향으로 돌출되어 욕조 바닥의 수평면보다 높은 평탄면을 형성시킨다.The temperature sensing member 22 is mounted on the inner wall of the bath 10, and a bathing water level adjusting member 20 is formed at the front end or the rear end of the bath 10 in which the bather can sit. The bath surface adjustment member 20 protrudes from the plane of the bath in the vertical direction at the front end or the rear end of the bath 10 to form a flat surface higher than the horizontal plane of the bath bottom.

한편, 입욕수면 조정부재(20)에는 압전센서(21)가 장착되어져 입욕자가 입욕수면 조정부재(20)의 상부면에 앉아서 압력을 가함에 따라 제어부(40)에 신호를 보내서 히터(12)가 "온" 상태가 되도록 한다.Meanwhile, the piezoelectric sensor 21 is mounted on the bathing water level adjusting member 20 so that the heater 12 sends a signal to the controller 40 as the bather sits on the upper surface of the bathing water level adjusting member 20 and exerts a pressure. Make it "on".

도 5는 본 발명에 의한 욕조의 전체 제어흐름을 나타내는 도면으로서, 입욕자가 욕조(10)에 들어가기 전에 리모콘(30)을 이용하여 제어부(40)에 신호를 보내므로서 제어부(40)에서 히터(12)에 출력신호를 보내게 된다. 이때 히터(12)가 "온"상태가 되면서 욕조 내벽의 플라스틱(11)부를 가열하게 된다. 이와 함께 욕조에 적당한 온도의 온수를 주입한다. 한편, 최초의 히터(12) 구동은 리모콘(30)에 의하여 구동할 수 도 있으며, 입욕자가 입욕수면 조정부재(20)의 상부면에 앉으면서 압전센서(21)를 가압하게 되고, 압전센서(21)에서 보낸 신호가 제어부(40)로 전달된다. 이후에 제어부(40)로부터 히터(12)로 출력된 신호에 의하여 히터(12)가 "온" 상태가 되도록 할 수 있다.5 is a view showing the overall control flow of the bath according to the present invention, before the bath enters the bath 10, the heater 40 in the control unit 40 by sending a signal to the control unit 40 using the remote control 30 The output signal is sent to 12). At this time, the heater 12 is in the "on" state to heat the plastic 11 of the tub inner wall. At the same time, hot water is injected into the bath. Meanwhile, the first heater 12 may be driven by the remote controller 30. The bath 12 may pressurize the piezoelectric sensor 21 while the bather sits on the upper surface of the bathing water surface adjustment member 20, and the piezoelectric sensor ( The signal sent from 21 is transmitted to the controller 40. Thereafter, the heater 12 may be in an "on" state by a signal output from the control unit 40 to the heater 12.

한편, 욕조(10)의 내부에 온수가 적당하게 차게 도면 입욕자는 입욕수면 조정부재(20)의 상부면에 앉아서 하반욕을 즐길수 있게 되는데, 입욕수면 조정부재(20)의 상부평탄면과 욕조 바닥의 평면과의 수직거리 많큼 수면에 잠기는 높이를 조정할 수 있다. 입욕자는 제어부(40)를 통하여 욕조내의 온도를 설정할수 있는데, 설정온도보다 온다가 높거나 낮아질 경우 온도감지부재(22)로부터 제어부(40)로 신호가 전달되어 히터(12)를 온/오프하게 된다. 한편, 욕조내의 물을 히터를 이용하여 가열할 수 도 있다.On the other hand, the hot water in the inside of the bathtub 10 is properly filled with the bath can sit on the upper surface of the bathing surface adjustment member 20 to enjoy the lower half bath, the upper flat surface of the bathing surface adjustment member 20 and the bath bottom You can adjust the height of the water soaking surface. The bather may set the temperature in the bathtub through the control unit 40, when the temperature is higher or lower than the set temperature, a signal is transmitted from the temperature sensing member 22 to the control unit 40 to turn on / off the heater 12. do. On the other hand, the water in the bathtub may be heated using a heater.

본 고안에 의하여 욕조의 바닥면에 입욕수면 조정부재를 형성시키므로서 하반욕이 편리하게 하고, 욕조의 보온을 통하여 온도를 균일하게 조정함은 물론, 에너지를 절감할 수 있는 우수한 효과가 있다.According to the present invention, the bottom half bath is conveniently formed by forming a bathing water surface adjustment member on the bottom surface of the bathtub, and the temperature is uniformly adjusted through thermal insulation of the bathtub, and there is an excellent effect of saving energy.
