[Industrial applications]

 This invention relates to an improvement of a bathtub.

[0002]

[Prior art and its problems]

 Conventionally, as a bathtub capable of obtaining a massage effect, for example, there is a bathtub of the type of hot water as shown in FIG. In the bathtub shown in FIG. 11, a rising wall 52 is provided upright in the rear part of the bathtub 51, and a discharge port 53 is formed in the upper part of the rising wall 52. Hot water is discharged from the discharge port 53 to the bathtub 51. It is intended to obtain a massage effect by discharging waterfall-shaped water to the side. However, in such a bathtub, the shape is complicated, the rising wall 52 needs to be constructed, the construction work is difficult, and the bathtub must be of a large size, which is expensive. There was a problem that it became a thing.

[0003]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The present invention was devised in view of the above-mentioned conventional problems, and an object thereof is to provide a bathtub capable of obtaining a favorable massage effect with a simple structure. The first gist of the present invention is to That is, a nozzle mounting part that can eject hot water in the horizontal direction is provided on the upper surface. The second gist is that the nozzle is configured to be replaceable. The third gist is that the direction of the nozzle is variable.

[0004]

[Action]

 Multiple nozzles are attached to the attachment part provided on the upper surface of the bathtub, and hot water can be ejected horizontally from this nozzle to bring the hot water into contact with the human body while taking a bath to obtain a massage effect. it can. In addition, the nozzle can be replaced with various shapes, and the hot water that is ejected can be used in the form of needles, flats, mist, etc. to improve the massage effect and the aesthetics around the bathtub. In addition, by configuring the nozzle direction to be variable, it is possible to eject hot water by appropriately directing the nozzle to wash the inner wall of the bathtub, and by ejecting hot water from the nozzle toward the washing area, It can be used for keeping the washing room warm and washing the washing place.

【Example】

 Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view from the top of the bathtub. A pair of mounting portions 2 and 2 are provided facing each other at the upper corners of the bathtub 1. The mounting portions 2 and 2 are integrated with the bathtub 1. It may be formed by swelling with the above, or a separate one may be fixed to the upper surface of the bathtub 1, and each of the mounting portions 2 and 2 has three nozzles 3, 3 and 3. In this example, the nozzles 3, 3 and 3 are configured so that fine needle-shaped fountains can be obtained. The fountains are jetted horizontally from the nozzles 3, 3 and 3. It is composed of It is possible to obtain a massage effect by ejecting a thin fountain from each of the nozzles 3, 3, 3 of the pair of mounting portions 2, 2 and bringing the fountain into contact with the chest or the like of the bather as shown in FIG.

Further, in FIG. 3, the nozzle 3 attached to the attachment portion 2 is configured so that a flat fountain can be obtained. In such a case, the fountain ejected from the nozzle 3 is stored in the bathtub. It can be used for cleaning the inner wall surface of the bathtub, etc. by making contact with the wall surface, and the flat fountain improves the visual aesthetics around the upper surface of the bathtub. The nozzle 3 can be replaced with various other shapes, for example, by screwing or fitting it into the mounting portion 2 so that the nozzle 3 can be replaced.

6 to 9 exemplify the types of nozzles 3. That is, FIG. 6 is for ejecting a thin needle-shaped fountain, and FIG. 7 is provided with a slit hole 3a for ejecting a flat fountain from this slit hole 3a. Further, the one shown in FIG. 8 has a large number of fine holes to eject hot water in a mist form. Further, FIG. 9 is for discharging a large amount of hot water.

Next, in FIG. 5, the above-mentioned structure is adopted for the bubble bath, and the bubble bath is provided with one suction port 4 on the inner wall of the bath 1 and a pair of jet ports 5, 5 facing each other. That is, hot water is sucked from the suction port 4 to the filter-equipped pump 6 and pressure-fed, and bubbles are mixed from the spouts 5 and 5 and ejected into the bath 1. In this example, the pump 6 is used. A part of the hot water pumped from is sent to the nozzles 3, 3, 3 mounted on the mounting part 2, and the hot water is jetted from the nozzles 3, 3, 3. In combination with such a bubble bath, in addition to the massage effect due to the bubbles ejected from the ejection ports 5 and 5, the massaging effect due to the hot water ejected from the nozzles 3 and 3 is obtained, and You will be able to enjoy bathing while well massage.

Further, in the bubble bath, bubbles ejected from the ejection ports 5 and 5 suck the dirt in the hot water in the bath 1, bubbles containing dirt float on the water surface, and the dirt floats on the water surface. However, by constructing as shown in Fig. 5, it is possible to satisfactorily destroy the dirty bubbles floating on the water surface by the hot water ejected from the nozzles 3 and 3 and entrain them in the water. As a result, dirt can be sucked into the filter 6 through the suction port 4 and the dirt can be satisfactorily captured by the filter 6, thus providing a comfortable bubble bath.

Further, the bathtub 1 shown in FIG. 10 is provided with handles 7, 7 which serve as handrails when taking a bath on the upper surface of the bath 1, and the nozzles 3, 3, 3 are attached to the handles 7, 7. Hot water can be satisfactorily ejected from each of the nozzles 3, 3, 3 to obtain a massage effect, and the handles 7, 7 can be effectively used, resulting in a bathtub with an excellent appearance.

If the nozzles 3 are configured so that their directions can be freely changed, hot water can be jetted out in an appropriate direction, and for example, a washing room can be used when entering the bathroom in winter or the like. Although it may get cold and cause discomfort, in such a case, as shown in FIG. 4, warm water can be jetted from the nozzles 3 and 3 to the washing place 8 side to preheat the floor of the washing place 8, In addition, the washing area can be cleaned well.

[0012]

[Effect of the device]

 The bathtub of the present invention is provided with a nozzle mounting portion capable of jetting hot water in the horizontal direction on the upper surface of the bathtub, so that hot water is jetted in the horizontal direction from the nozzle, and this fountain provides a good massage effect during bathing. It is possible to create a comfortable bathing environment. In addition, the nozzle can be replaced, and hot water can be jetted in a mist form to improve the appearance around the bathtub. Furthermore, the fountain can be brought into contact with the inner wall surface of the bathtub to effectively remove dirt on the inner wall surface of the bathtub. Can also In addition, if the nozzle direction is variable, it is possible to spray the fountain in the appropriate direction to massage the human body at a predetermined position, and to spray hot water to the washroom side to warm the floor of the washroom. It can also be cleaned and has the effect of further improving its function.It does not require a rising wall as in the past, and has a structure in which a nozzle is easily attached to the top of the bathtub for construction work. It can be done easily.
