Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a simple sauna device that can be used in a small space at home, etc., and more specifically to an improvement regarding the chair of the device.

As shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, the sauna device described above includes a chair 4, a far-infrared device 5,
6, 7, 8, a storage shelf 9, a towel rack 10, a control box 11, an interior light 12, and other incidental equipment, and a ventilation opening 13 and the like in the ceiling.

As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the chair 4 consists of a seat portion 4a and a backrest 4b, and is provided so that far-infrared rays can be projected from a far-infrared device 6 to the back of the body.

On the other hand, the seat portion 4a is made up of a plurality of strip-shaped spanning boards 4d.
... are arranged in parallel at appropriate intervals on the joist 4e via splints 4f, etc., and the width l of this spanning board 4d is:
It is necessary to have a wide dimension that does not cause pain when sitting, and for this reason, each gangplank 4d, 4
The opening 4g formed between d has no choice but to be narrow.

The far-infrared device 8 for projecting onto the buttocks of the body is usually installed at the lower corner of the main body 1 so as not to interfere with the scaffolding due to the internal space of the main body 1, so it is not suitable for such a configuration. This means that far-infrared rays cannot be sufficiently projected to the buttocks.

Therefore, as a result of studies in view of the above-mentioned problems, the present invention is an attempt to improve the chair for sauna equipment. The openings formed between the respective spanboards are opened along the radiation direction of the far infrared rays, so that the far infrared rays can be efficiently projected to the buttocks without compromising seating comfort. It is to do so.

The present invention will be described in detail below based on the illustrated embodiment. In the sauna apparatus constructed as described above, the chair 4 has a seat portion 4a and a seat portion 4a as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7. The seat portion 4a is formed by a plurality of strip-shaped spanning boards 4d arranged in parallel at appropriate intervals on a splint 4f, while the backrest 4b is formed by crosspieces 4h... It is similar to the above-mentioned conventional product that... are arranged in parallel at appropriate intervals, but according to the present invention, the openings 4g...
... is opened along the direction of far-infrared radiation from the far-infrared device 8 installed at the lower corner of the main body 1, and the far-infrared rays pass through the opening 4g and reach the buttocks of the body seated on the seat 4a. It is constructed so that it can be projected.

Here, the width l of each of the above-mentioned spanning boards 4d is set to an appropriate dimension in advance so that when sitting on the seat part 4a, the user does not feel pain in the buttocks.
The width l' of the opening 4g between the respective spanboards 4d, 4d will be narrowed, but since the opening 4g is opened along the far-infrared projection direction, the comfort of sitting on the seat 4a will be improved. Of course, it can improve the transmission rate of far infrared rays.

As a means for opening the opening 4g along the radiation direction of the far infrared rays, the far infrared device 8 is installed at the rear of the lower part of the seat 4a as shown in FIG. , i.e., the front end surface 4 of the spanning board 4d facing the opening 4g.
d ₁ , the rear end surface 4d ₂ is formed into an inclined surface having the same angle α as the far-infrared radiation angle β, and span plates 4d having a parallelogram cross section are arranged at appropriate intervals as shown in FIG. Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 8, the front end surface 4d ₁ is inclined at approximately the same angle α as the radiation angle β of the far infrared rays, and the rear end surface 4d ₂ and the front end surface 4d ₁ are arranged in the opposite direction. The span plates 4d, which are inclined to have a triangular or trapezoidal cross section, may be arranged in parallel at appropriate intervals.

In other words, in the case of FIG. 7, the front end surface 4d ₁ and the rear end surface 4d ₂ are inclined along a line extending between the seat portion 4d and the far-infrared device 8, and in the case of FIG. ₁ is inclined along a line extending between the seat portion 4d and the far-infrared device 8, and the rear end surface 4d ₂ is
It is inclined in the direction opposite to the front end surface _4d1 .

The seat portion 4a has a mechanism in which U-shaped guide rails (not shown) are attached to opposite sides of the seat portion 4a and the inner surfaces of both side walls of the main body 1, and the guide rails are engaged with each other. The far-infrared device 8 is provided in a fixed position, and the seat portion 2a slides in the front-back direction at a constant angle in response to far-infrared rays having a constant radiation angle β. Therefore, no matter which slide position the opening 4g is in, the direction of the opening 4g coincides with the direction of far-infrared radiation.

Therefore, even when an adult, a child, or a user of different physiques slides the seat portion 2a arbitrarily to the most comfortable sitting position, far infrared rays are efficiently projected to the buttocks through the opening 4g. be able to.

As explained above, in the present invention, a chair is provided inside a box-shaped main body that can be moved in and out, and the seat of the chair is formed by a number of parallel boards arranged at relative intervals. Along with being there,
In a sauna device in which a far-infrared ray transmitting opening is formed between the adjacent parts of these spanning boards, and a far-infrared ray device is arranged at the lower rear of the seat, each of the above-mentioned openings is provided. Among the front end surfaces and rear end surfaces of each span plate facing the section, at least each front end surface is inclined along a line extending between the seat section and the far-infrared device.

In this way, when the front end surface of the spanning board, which is a constituent member of the seat, is inclined along the line segment that extends between the seat and the far-infrared device, the light passes through the opening between each spanning board from diagonally rearward under the seat. The amount of far infrared rays increases, and the amount of far infrared rays hitting the buttocks increases accordingly.

Of course, there is no need to widen the width of the opening, and it is only necessary to incline the front end surface of the spanning board in a predetermined direction, so that the sitting comfort of the seat will not be worsened.

Therefore, when using the sauna device of the present invention, more far infrared rays can be applied to the body without disturbing the comfort of sitting on the chair.
