BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a box-type sauna apparatus suitable for being used as a small sauna bath for home use.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, in this type of sauna apparatus, there is one in which a planar heater is used as the heating source.
[0003]
The sauna apparatus using such a planar heater is formed in a box shape with a door on the front surface, and the planar heaters are separately provided on the inner surface of the back plate and the inner surfaces of both side plates facing the door. It is assumed that it is arranged.
[0004]
Furthermore, as a sauna apparatus using a planar heater, for example, there is a sauna apparatus disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 196598. The sauna apparatus disclosed in this publication is provided with a door on the front surface and is formed in a box shape, similar to the sauna apparatus, and on the back plate inner surface and both side plate inner surfaces of the box body facing the door, respectively. It is assumed that the planar heater is disposed, and a reflective film is disposed on the lower part of the inner surface of the box body, that is, the lower part of the inner surface of the door, the lower part of the inner surfaces of both side plates, and the like.
[0005]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, in the above-described conventional sauna apparatus using the planar heater, separate planar heaters are disposed on the inner surface of the back plate and the inner surfaces of both side plates of the box body. The wiring has to be troublesome because it has to be wired, and the wiring is exposed from each of the planar heaters, resulting in poor appearance.
[0006]
Furthermore, in the above-described conventional sauna apparatus, planar heaters are provided on the inner surface of the back plate and the inner surfaces of both side plates, respectively, but the air in the box body heated by these planar heaters is On the contrary, the cool air in the box body descends and the temperature on the bottom plate side of the box body becomes lower than the top plate side of the box body, so that the user is particularly seated in the chair installed in the box body In the case of a low posture, the foot has the problem that the entire lower body feels cold, let alone.
[0007]
Further, in the sauna apparatus described after the above-mentioned conventional technique, it is sufficient that the temperature on the bottom plate side of the box body is lowered due to the reflection heat from the reflection film disposed on the lower inner surface of the box body, although it can be eliminated to some extent. However, the problem was that the user's feet still felt cold.
[0008]
Therefore, the present invention solves the above-described conventional problems, and it is not necessary to separately wire the sheet heaters disposed on the inner surface of the back plate and the inner surfaces of both side plates, so that the wiring is not conspicuous. In addition, the object is to provide a sauna apparatus in which the temperature in the box body is raised evenly so that the lower body of the user, in particular, the feet are not felt cold.
[0009]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, the sauna apparatus of this invention is demonstrated in detail based on drawing shown as embodiment.
[0014]
FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of a sauna apparatus according to the present invention which is a box type used as a small sauna bath for home use. The sauna device of the present invention has a door (not shown) attached to the front surface, and is configured as a box body 1 having a front opening by a rear plate 1a, a top plate 1b, side plates 1c, 1d and a bottom plate 1e.
[0015]
On the inner surface of the rear plate 1a, the inner surface of the top plate 1b, the inner surfaces of both side plates 1c, 1d and the inner surface of the bottom plate 1e, the planar heater portion Ha for the rear plate of the planar heater H as shown in FIGS. A top plate planar heater Hb, both side plate planar heaters Hc and Hd, and a bottom plate planar heater He are provided.
[0016]
On the upper side of the sheet heater H for the sheet heater H disposed on the inner surface of the rear panel 1a of the box body 1, there is a sheet heater Hb for the table plate disposed on the inner surface of the table top 1b. It is connected. Both side plates 1c and 1d are connected to both sides of the rear plate planar heater portion Ha, and are connected to both side plate planar heater portions Hc and Hd. Further, the bottom plate planar heater portion He disposed on the inner surface of the bottom plate 1e is connected to the lower side of the rear plate planar heater portion Ha.
[0017]
In the illustrated embodiment, each of the planar heater portions Ha, Hb, Hc, Hd and He of the planar heater H has an inner surface of the rear plate 1a, an inner surface of the top plate 1b, an inner surface of both side plates 1c and 1d in the illustrated embodiment. In addition, the entire inner surfaces of the bottom plate 1e and the bottom plate 1e are covered, but they may be partially covered or not necessarily covered.
[0018]
Further, each of the sheet heaters Ha, Hb, Hc, Hd, and He may have a difference in heat generation temperature. That is, the sheet heater H can be a code heater C. In this case, as shown in the figure, the wiring density of the code heater C is determined by each of the sheet heater portions Ha, Hb, Hc, Hd and He. If it is changed, it can be assumed that there is a difference between the heat generation temperatures. For example, in the illustrated example, the wiring density of the code heater C at the center of the sheet heater for the rear plate Ha is increased and the sheet heaters Hc and Hd for the both sides are closer to the sheet heater Ha for the rear plate. By increasing the wiring density of the cord heater, the heat generation temperature of these portions is increased, and the temperature near the rear plate 1a of the box body 1 is easily increased.
[0019]
Further, the cord heater C of each of the planar heater portions Ha, Hb, Hc, Hd, and He is used for either one of the planar heater portions Hc and Hd for both side plates from the planar heater portion Hb for both side plates. One of the planar heaters Hc, Hd is the rear plate planar heater unit Ha, the rear plate planar heater unit Ha is the bottom plate planar heater unit He, and the bottom plate planar heater unit He is the side plate surface. The heaters Hc and Hd may be wired in the other order. By doing so, the wiring of the code heater C to the planar heater H can be performed without disconnecting the cord in the middle, so that the wiring work is simplified and the degree of exposure from the planar heater H is also improved. Will be less, and will look good.
[0020]
In the box body 1, a chair 2 made of slats or the like is installed. Although not shown in the figure, power switches, timer switches, and switches for adjusting the temperature of each of the sheet heaters Ha, Hb, Hc, Hd and He of the sheet heater H are provided at appropriate locations outside the box body 1. A control panel (not shown) to which etc. are attached is installed.
[0021]
In the sauna apparatus of the present invention configured as described above, each surface of the sheet heater H is provided on the inner surface of the rear plate 1a, the inner surface of the top plate 1b, the inner surfaces of the side plates 1c, 1d and the inner surface of the bottom plate 1e, excluding the front surface of the box body 1. Since the heaters Ha, Hb, Hc, Hd, and He are respectively disposed, the temperature in the box body 1 can be increased evenly so that the planar heater H wraps the bather. Therefore, the bather's whole body will be warmed, and even when the bather is in a low posture sitting on the chair 2 installed in the box body 1, the lower body of the bather, especially the feet, should be warmed. Can be done.
[0022]
Furthermore, in the sauna device according to the present invention, each heating element in each of the planar heaters Ha, Hb, Hc, Hd and He is differentiated from each other in the box body 1 by making a difference. Subtle temperature adjustment at the place is possible.
[0023]
【The invention's effect】
Since the sauna device of the present invention is configured as described above, it is not necessary to separately wire the planar heaters arranged on the inner surface of the back plate and the inner surfaces of both side plates of the box body, and the wiring is conspicuous. In addition, the temperature inside the box was raised uniformly, preventing the user's lower body, especially the feet, from feeling cold.
