[0031] The following will describe in detail some embodiments of this utility model with reference to the accompanying drawings. Without conflict, the features in the following embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0032] Currently, more and more people like to use steam bathers to take steam baths for their bodies. When the existing foot bath steam bathers are used to steam the legs, since the temperature of the fumigation steam is relatively high, it is easy to scald the user if the operation is improper during the steam bath. Moreover, due to the difference in heat resistance temperature of different body parts of the human body, for example, the inner side of the knee joint of the human body is relatively sensitive to heat and is easily scalded. To solve the above problems, this utility model provides a steam bather with anti-scald protection, which can provide anti-scald protection for the inner thigh of the user and improve the comfort of the user during the steam bath.
[0033] As Figures 1 to 6As shown in the figure, a steam bath device with anti-scalding protection according to this embodiment includes a main body 10 that defines a fumigation chamber 11 inside and a steam supply device 2 for generating fumigation steam. The main body 10 includes an insertion opening 12 for a limb to extend into. Among them, the fumigation chamber 11 is defined by multiple wall parts, at least part of the top wall of the multiple wall parts is open, and a cover plate for closing or opening the top opening is configured. An opening is also defined on the front wall 15 of the multiple wall parts, and this opening communicates with the top opening to jointly form the insertion opening 12. During the steam bath, the cover plate can be opened to increase the opening size of the insertion opening 12 so that the user's leg can extend in. In addition, the depth of the fumigation chamber 11 in this embodiment is configured to be higher than the height of the user's lower leg to accommodate the lower leg and knee joint of the user, increase the steam bath range of the limb, and further promote the blood circulation of the user, having the effects of dredging meridians, activating blood circulation and removing stasis.
[0034] In order to avoid scalding the inner side of the user's thigh, especially the inner side of the knee joint, by the fumigation steam during the steam bath, in this embodiment, a steam baffle 6 is arranged below the insertion opening 12. The steam baffle 6 is configured to block the upward flow of the fumigation steam to the inner side of the knee joint to prevent the fumigation steam from scalding the user. Further, the fumigation chamber 11 includes a front wall 15, the insertion opening 12 includes an opening formed on the front wall 15, and the steam baffle 6 is arranged below the opening to just block the steam flow path flowing to the insertion opening 12, so that the hot steam flowing to the user's knee joint is blocked, thereby protecting the user and improving the fumigation effect. It should be noted that the steam temperature in the steam bath device in this embodiment is configured to be 40°C - 65°C, preferably 45°C - 55°C. Among them, the fumigation steam in this embodiment refers to the fumigation temperature that exceeds the temperature that the user's limb can accept, which varies from person to person. For example, some people have a low heat tolerance and will feel uncomfortable when the temperature is higher than 50°C, while some people will feel uncomfortable when the temperature exceeds 55°C. The heat tolerance temperature of the skin on the inner side of the thigh, especially the skin on the inner side of the knee joint, may be even lower. Therefore, the steam baffle 6 is provided to block the steam and avoid scalding the user.
[0035] Further, the steam baffle 6 is detachably connected to the front wall 15, which is convenient for disassembling and cleaning the steam baffle 6 and improves the convenience of use. Preferably, a clamping groove is defined on the steam baffle 6, and a clamping protrusion engaged with the clamping groove is defined on the front wall 15. By adopting the clamping method, the disassembly and assembly are simple and convenient.
[0036] As Figures 2 to 6As shown, the steam baffle 6 includes a housing with an opening facing downwards. The housing is made of heat-insulating material, which can improve the heat-insulating effect of the steam baffle 6. Preferably, the housing includes an arc-shaped top surface, and the arc-shaped top surface gradually transitions downwards in an arc away from the front wall 15, so as to better block the flow of steam. Moreover, the housing with the above structure can also support and limit the limbs extending into the steam bath cavity to prevent the user's legs from approaching the front wall 15, enabling the steam to perform a full-round steam bath on the periphery of the legs and improving the steam bath effect. Further, at least one steam baffle 6 is provided. One of the steam baffles 6 extends along the left-right direction of the main body 10. In this embodiment, two steam baffles 6 are provided, which are spaced left and right to accommodate the user's legs.
[0037] As a preferred implementation, in this embodiment, the steam baffle 6 is configured to be movably disposed on the front wall 15 up and down to adapt to users with different leg lengths, improve the steam blocking effect, and further better protect the user from being scalded. A steam blocking mechanism 30 for closely adhering to the inner side of the user's thigh is also movably disposed at the opening of the front wall 15. The steam blocking mechanism 30 is configured to be movably disposed up and down at the opening, so as to change the size of the opening to adapt to users with different leg lengths. At the same time, the upper edge of the steam blocking mechanism 30 can fit the inner side surface of the user's thigh, thereby blocking the steam in the fumigation cavity 11 from escaping through the opening, reducing heat loss, and ensuring the heat preservation in the fumigation cavity 11. The steam baffle 6 is connected to the steam blocking mechanism 30 and thus moves with the up and down movement of the steam blocking mechanism 30 to better block the steam flowing towards the opening and prevent scalding the inner side surface of the user's knee joint.
[0038] As Figures 2 to 6As shown, the steam blocking mechanism 30 includes: guiding side plates 31, which are attached to the front wall 15; a movable baffle 32, which is slidably arranged on the guiding side plates 31; and a biasing spring 33, which is configured to apply a force to the steam blocking mechanism 30 in a direction that makes the steam blocking mechanism 30 fit against the user's leg upward. Specifically, three slots are respectively and spacedly arranged on the movable baffle 32 in the width direction, located on the left and right sides and in the middle respectively; correspondingly, three bumps that can pass through the slots are respectively provided on the guiding side plates 31; it further includes a guiding column 34, the lower end of which passes through the guiding slots formed on the bumps and extends downward and is inserted into the positioning holes on the movable baffle 32, and the upper end of which is fixedly connected to the movable baffle 32 by bolts, so as to fixedly connect the movable baffle 32 to the guiding side plates 31, such that the movable baffle 32 slides up and down under the cooperation of the guiding slots and the guiding column 34; further, the biasing spring 33 is sleeved on the guiding column 34, and the first end of the biasing spring 33 abuts against the guiding block, and the second end thereof abuts against the upper end of the guiding column 34, so as to provide an elastic force through the biasing spring 33, such that the movable baffle 32 can stably move up and down under the cooperation of the guiding slots, the guiding block and the guiding column 34. Wherein, a raised column extending upward is provided in the middle of the top end of the movable baffle 32, and the raised column defines two openings on the left and right of the opening part, so as to be suitable for the user's legs to rest, and two steam baffles 6 are respectively provided corresponding to the two openings below, so as to provide anti-scald protection for the inner sides of the two knees of the user.
[0039] In addition, in order to further prevent the user's feet from being scalded, a footrest 5 is detachably connected to the inner bottom of the main body 10 to be suitable for supporting the user's feet; a steam channel 14 is defined between the footrest 5 and the bottom wall of the main body 10, and steam outlets are defined on both sides of the footrest 5 to flow out from both sides, and the steam flows upward in the fumigation chamber 11, and during the upward flow process, the user's legs are slowly heated, so that the user can gradually adapt to the temperature of the steam and avoid scalding the inner sides of the user's thighs due to too high temperature; in addition, the steam flowing out from the steam channel 14 at the bottom can also heat the footrest 5, so as to perform heating fumigation on the user's feet; and in order to avoid the surface temperature of the footrest 5 being too high to scald the feet, a heat insulation plate is arranged at the bottom of the footrest 5, so that the heat of the steam is indirectly transferred to the footrest 5, thereby indirectly heating the footrest 5; preferably, the heat insulation plate is spaced from the footrest 5, and a heat insulation chamber is formed therebetween; in addition, through holes are provided on the partition plate to allow part of the steam to enter the heat insulation chamber to heat the footrest 5, so as to ensure that the temperature of the footrest 5 is appropriate, which can not only ensure that the user's feet are heated and fumigated, but also prevent scalding the user's feet due to too high temperature, and improve the fumigation experience of the user.
[0040] Further, a heat insulation partition is vertically arranged in the fumigation chamber 11. A steam delivery channel is formed between the heat insulation partition and the rear wall of the fumigation chamber 11. The steam delivery channel includes a vertically arranged temperature adjustment channel 13 and a steam channel 14 arranged at the bottom. The steam output end of the steam supply device 2 is arranged in the first channel. The surface of the heat insulation partition facing the user has a plurality of heat insulation ribs to reduce the contact area between the user's limb and the heat insulation partition, thereby improving the heat insulation effect.
[0041] The above is only the specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention should be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
