Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (Field of industrial application) This invention is based on synthetic bath health supplements such as powders and tablets containing medicinal or aromatic ingredients, or natural bath health supplements such as medicinal plants such as herbs and medicinal minerals. Containers used for this purpose.

(Prior Art) Conventionally, as this type of container, a bag made of filter paper or filter cloth has been used, and a bag containing a bath health supplement is placed in hot water when taking a bath. Products containing natural medicinal plants have the disadvantage that it takes a long time for the medicinal ingredients to dissolve into the hot water, while products containing synthetic medicinal powders dissolve immediately when placed in hot water. This created the inconvenience of having to replenish new medicinal powder after using the hot water in the bathtub for washing.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) The object of the present invention is to eliminate the drawbacks of the conventional methods and to provide a container for a bathing health agent that is cleaner and more effective in promoting human health.

(Means for Solving the Problems) In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a hollow container made of an elastic material that can be expanded and contracted by a person's grip, the hollow container having a large number of small holes penetrating the inside and outside of the container. and a filter medium such as filter paper is installed inside the container,
The structure is such that the outer surface of the hollow container has numerous protrusions for stimulation of acupuncture points.

As the elastic agent in the present invention, synthetic resins such as soft polyethylene and soft vinyl chloride, natural rubber, synthetic rubber, etc., which float or do not float in water, are selectively used as appropriate.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

(Example) In the figure, a spherical hollow container body 1 is made of a soft vinyl chloride resin that has enough elasticity to expand and contract with the force of a person's grip. 2, 2 are formed by joining the male and female engaging parts 3, 4 of the two halves with adhesive, and in this example, a bowl-shaped container is formed in both container halves 2, 2. In this example, synthetic bath medicinal granules 6 are enclosed within the spherical filter paper bag consisting of both filter paper bag halves 5, 5. This hollow container main body 1 is provided with a large number of small holes 7 passing through the inside and outside of the container, and a large number of hemispherical protrusions 8 for stimulating acupoints (acupuncture points) are protruded from the outer surface of the container main body 1. The interior of the filter paper bag half 5 is made by adhering the outer surface of the opening edge of the half 5 to the inner surface of the opening edge of the container half 2.

In use, when the above-mentioned container containing the synthetic bath medicinal granules 6 is placed in a bathtub, and while taking a bath, the container is held in the hand and pressurized intermittently in hot water, and then the container first elastically contracts. When the container contracts, the medicinal liquid dissolved in the hot water in the container is released into the bathtub from the small holes 7..., and when it expands, the hot water in the bathtub flows through the small holes 7...
... are sucked into the container and participate in the dissolution of the medicinal granules 6, and at the same time, the protrusions 8 of the container stimulate the acupuncture points on the hand to obtain health-promoting effects.

When the intermittent pressurization of the container is stopped, a portion of the medicinal liquid contained in the medicinal granules 6 in the container gradually flows out from the small holes 7, but the rest is retained in the container, and the hot water in the bathtub is When newly replenishing hot water due to decreased water, etc.
By intermittent pressurization of the container again, the medicinal liquid is replenished into the bathtub.

When a natural medicinal plant is placed in a container, the medicinal ingredients can be released into the bathtub in a short period of time by repeating intermittent pressurization of the container many times during bathing.

The shape of the container in this proposal is not limited to the above examples, but may also be oval, cylindrical, etc., as well as shapes that imitate fish, animals, fruits, etc., and the container halves may be joined by press fitting. , thermal welding, and other means may be selectively used as appropriate.

(Effect of the invention) According to the container of the bath health supplement of the present invention, the bath health agent is sealed in the container and placed in the bathtub, and while taking a bath, the container is held in the hand and pressure is applied intermittently while submerged in hot water. In this way, the health liquid in the container can be discharged into the bathtub, and at the same time, the protrusions on the outer surface of the container can stimulate pressure points on the hands to further improve health. Furthermore, if a synthetic bath health supplement that is easily dissolved is placed in the container, even if it is poured into the bathtub, the entire amount of the health supplement will not immediately dissolve into the hot water in the bathtub, and a portion will remain in the container. This allows the required amount to be released over a long period of time.In addition, when containing natural medicinal plants whose active ingredients are difficult to dissolve, the container can be repeatedly pressurized intermittently to release the required amount in a shorter time than conventional methods. The active ingredients can be released, and since it is equipped with a filter medium such as filter paper, it also has the advantage of being extremely clean as it does not release even the dregs of the enclosed bath health supplement.
