Has a function of displaying and outputting how much time (required time t ₁ ) is required (hereinafter referred to as function C).

Accordingly, the input port of the microcomputer 50 is connected to a sensor 40 for detecting a physiological state of a bather in the sauna room, such as a heart rate, a blood pressure, a sweating amount, a body temperature distribution, and the like. A display panel 60 and a chime 61 are connected to the port as notification means for notifying a bather in a sauna room of information such as calorie consumption. Also,
The input unit 30 not only performs settings such as temperature and humidity, but also allows input of personal data such as sex, weight W, height, and age of the bather, desired bath time t ′, and desired calorie consumption Q ′. Has become.

The following is used as the sensor 40. That is, for example, a commercially available sphygmomanometer may be used to detect the number of hearts and the blood pressure of the bather, and the sweat amount of the bather may be detected by, for example, using the surface of the bather's skin. It is preferable to attach an electrode to the electrode, connect an ohmmeter to the electrode, and detect the resistance change. In addition, in order to measure the body temperature distribution of a bather, an infrared camera or a radiation thermometer may be used in addition to a method of attaching a temperature sensor to the skin surface of each part of the bather.

Next, the software related to the function A of the microcomputer 50 will be described, and the operation of the sauna heating apparatus related to this function will be described.

When the power switch is turned on through the input unit 30, the microcomputer 50 generates a signal for operating the power control circuit 70 so as to keep the temperature and humidity of the sauna room constant at the set values. However, the processing for exhibiting this function is not different from the conventional one, and therefore the description is omitted.

When the bather inputs his / her personal data and desired calorie consumption Q 'through the input unit 30, the microcomputer 5
0 writes personal data to a predetermined address of the internal memory. Thereafter, when the bather gives a bathing start timing through the input unit 30 (or the door switch of the sauna room), the microcomputer 50 activates a built-in timer and starts counting the time from the bathing start, that is, the bathing time t. (In the figure, this function is represented as a timer 502). Then, data of the bathing time t indicated by the built-in timer is output to the display panel 60.

Thereafter, the microcomputer 50 checks whether the bathing is started.

(In the figure, this function is referred to as a basal metabolic rate estimating unit 505).
).

The body surface area S of a bather is estimated as follows. That is, the body surface area of a person is recorded in advance in the built-in memory of the microcomputer 50 in the form of a data table for each sex, weight, height, age, and the like. Then, the data table is searched using the personal data of the bather input through the input unit 30 as a key, and thereby the body surface area S of the bather is obtained. Estimation of basal metabolic rate q _B of the bather is also performed in exactly the same manner. Note that these may be obtained by a calculation formula.

Next, the measurement results of the temperature sensor 10 and the humidity sensor 20 are input, and the amount of heat q _A (the amount of heat given per unit area per unit time under the environmental conditions of the sauna room of temperature T and humidity H [Kcal / cm ² / min] (in the figure, this function is shown as a supplied heat amount calculation unit 501).

[0031] Determination of the amount of heat q _A is as follows. Assuming that the temperature and humidity in the sauna room are uniform, the amount of heat given per unit area per unit time in the sauna room is uniquely determined, and this is stored in advance in the built-in memory of the microcomputer 50 in the form of a data table. Record it. Then, the temperature sensor 10, searches the data table temperature T is a measurement result of the humidity sensor 20, the humidity H as a key, thereby obtaining the heat q _A.

Next, bathing time t indicated by the built-in timer during heat q _A and body surface area based on the S total heat Q _B1 (temperature T · humidity H are in the sauna room environmental conditions that bather bathing time t The total amount of heat [kcal] given to the above is calculated.

The total amount of heat (kcal) given is determined.
Specifically, the calculation of Q _B2 = q _A · S · t ′ is performed (in the figure, this function is referred to as a total calorie calculation unit 504).
).

Thereafter, based on the total caloric value Q _B2 , basal metabolic rate q _B , the bather's weight W and the desired bathing time t ′ included in the personal data, the calorie consumption Q ₂ predicted to be consumed by the bather in the sauna room. Ask for. Specifically, Q ₂ = Q
_B2 operations -q _B · W · t 'is to be carried out (in the figure represents the function as a calorie consumption calculating unit 506).

Then, the data of the calorie consumption Q ₂ is output to the display panel 60. As a result, bather when bathing only the desired bathing time t ', the calorie consumption Q ₂ to which is predicted is displayed and output on the display panel 60 and consumed.

Next, the software related to the function C of the microcomputer 50 will be described, and the operation of the sauna heating apparatus related to this function will be described.

When the bather inputs desired calorie consumption Q 'in addition to his / her personal data through the input unit 30, the microcomputer 50 uses the personal data in the same manner as described above and the bather's body surface area S and basal metabolic rate q. _B is estimated (in the figure, this function is referred to as a body surface area estimating section 503 and a basal metabolic rate estimating section 50).
5), temperature sensor 10, humidity sensor 2
Based on 0 detection result obtaining the amount of heat q _A (in the figure represents the function as a supply heat quantity calculating section 501).

[0047] Then, desired calories Q 'and heat q _A, body surface area S, bather on the basis of the bather's body weight W contained in the basal metabolic rate q _B and personal data desired calorie consumption Q' consume obtaining the required time t ₁ which is estimated required. Specifically, t ₁ = Q ′ / (q _A · S−q _B
(W) is performed (this function is shown as a required time calculation unit 510 in the figure).

Then, the data of the required time t ₁ is output to the display panel 60. As a result, the required time t ₁ estimated to be necessary for the bather to consume the desired calorie consumption Q ′ is displayed and output on the display panel 60.

By appropriately using the functions B and C, it is possible to find out the desired calorie consumption Q 'and the required time t' that are most preferable for the bather. Then, when actually bathing using the function A, the desired calorie consumption Q 'found out is input and the bathing is actually started. When the calorie consumed by the bather reaches the desired calorie consumption Q', The chime 61 sounds.
