Can be done.

Furthermore, if the connecting body 6a provided at the proximal end of the tube 6 is detachably attached to the water supply pipe 7, it can be removed when not in use and may become a hindrance. There is no such thing.

[0008]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described in detail below based on illustrated embodiments. As shown in FIG. 1, the carbonated spring bathing device is constructed by connecting a fine bubble generator 4 disposed near a bathtub 2 and the bathtub 2 through a circulation pipe 5. The micro-bubble generator 4 is capable of sucking bath water as a liquid present in the bathtub 2 and ejecting it from the micro-bubble ejection nozzle 1. When the bath water passes through the micro-bubble generator 4, Gas is dissolved in the liquid under pressure, and by discharging the bath water in which the gas is dissolved under pressure into the bathtub 2, fine bubbles in which carbon dioxide gas is dissolved in a high concentration are generated in the bathtub 2. It is now possible to do so.

Fine bubble jetting nozzle 1 provided in bathtub 2
are provided in the bathtub 2 so as to face pressure points on the human body such as the wrists, thighs, legs, upper back, lower back, and soles of the legs during bathing, and are ejected from the fine bubble ejection nozzle 1. Microbubbles containing carbon dioxide gas dissolved in a high concentration are ejected directly to the local area. A flexible tube 6 projects from the flange portion 2a of the bathtub 2, and a microbubble jet nozzle 1 is provided at the tip of the tube 6, as shown in FIG. This micro-bubble ejection nozzle 1 is designed to directly apply micro-bubbles to local areas such as the neck or sensitive areas. Here, the tube 6 is led out from the flange part 2a by detachably connecting a connecting body 6a provided at the base end to a water supply pipe line 7 arranged on the flange part 2a, and can be removed when not in use. It is now possible to do so.

[0010]Then, the bather who is taking a bath in the bathtub 2 by the jet stream ejected from each fine bubble ejecting nozzle 1 does not have to move his/her body, but can continue to use the hot water while bathing from each fine bubble ejecting nozzle 1. Microbubble bath water with a high concentration of carbon dioxide dissolved in it is directly sprayed onto various parts of the human body, and a microbubble ejecting nozzle that can be moved freely through a tube 6 is used to spray water onto the neck and face. Microbubbles can be applied directly to the local areas of the body, and the microbubbles with a high concentration of dissolved carbon dioxide gas are ejected directly to each local area, which greatly promotes blood circulation in the periphery and improves poor blood circulation and sensitivity to cold. It provides excellent physiological effects.

In the device shown in FIG. 2, a cuff band 10 is attached to the tip of the tube 6 as a fine bubble jetting nozzle 1. This cuff band 10
A porous member 10a having a large number of holes is provided on the inner surface, and the bath water mixed with fine bubbles sent through the tube 6 is sprayed locally from each hole. By wrapping it around the arms, legs, joints, and other parts of the human body, the microbubbles can be kept in constant contact with local areas even when the human body moves. Furthermore, by attaching a blood pressure monitor and a pulse monitor to the cuff band 10, it is possible to measure blood pressure and pulse rate while taking a bath. and,
By applying feedback control to the water temperature, micro bubble injection pressure, and injection position based on blood pressure and pulse rate data,
This makes it possible to provide optimal bathing conditions for both sickly and healthy people. Furthermore, by storing daily bathing data in memory, it is possible to manage the health status of each individual, which is highly effective in maintaining health. The fine bubbles are ejected from the cuff band 10 by attaching a pressure switch 3 to the cuff band 10 as the fine bubble jetting nozzle 1 or by using a program.

FIG. 3 shows a shower head 9 attached to the tip of a tube 6 as a fine bubble jetting nozzle 1. As shown in FIG. If the shower head 9 is provided as the fine bubble ejecting nozzle 1 in this way, it is possible to use fine bubbles in which carbon dioxide gas is dissolved in a high concentration when washing the face or hair, and the fine bubbles are particularly effective on the scalp. Microbubbles containing carbon dioxide gas dissolved in a high concentration promote blood circulation in the scalp and can be expected to have a hair growth effect.

FIG. 4 shows the above-mentioned embodiment.
The tube 6 is shown formed of a plurality of thin tubes 11. In other words, when fine bubbles are discharged from the fine bubble jetting nozzle 1, if the tube 6 is formed of a single tube, an internal force acts on the tube 6, which impairs the flexibility of the tube 6 and makes it difficult to bend. I end up. For this reason, it was decided to use a single composite tube by combining a plurality of thin flexible tubes 11, instead of constructing the tube with a single tube. This allows it to be bent freely even while discharging microbubbles. In the illustrated embodiment, seven thin tubes 11 are combined into one tube 6, but the number of thin tubes 11 is not limited to seven, and may be seven. The number may be less than or equal to 7 or more.

Furthermore, the above-mentioned fine bubble jetting nozzle 1 may be a normal bubble nozzle that does not generate fine bubbles or a jet nozzle with a high discharge flow velocity, and the nozzle should be selected according to the purpose, use, and preference of the bathtub 2. It is something that can be done.

[0015]

[Effects of the Invention] As mentioned above, the present invention has flexibility,
A tube that sends a liquid containing fine bubbles in which carbon dioxide gas is dissolved at a high concentration is led out from the flange of the bathtub, and a fine bubble jet nozzle is installed at the tip of this tube, so the fine bubble jet nozzle can be moved freely by the tube. The bather moves the micro-bubble jet nozzle close to private parts of the human body such as the neck, knees, and waist, and the fine-bubble jetting nozzle sprays a fine-bubble-containing liquid with carbon dioxide dissolved in it at a high concentration. can be applied directly, and can improve the massage effect etc. due to the microbubbles.

[0016] Furthermore, if a connecting body is provided at the proximal end of the tube, and this connecting body is detachably attached to the water supply pipe arranged on the flange of the bathtub, there is a possibility that the connecting body will not be used. It can be removed if necessary and does not get in the way.
