Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to a kind of medicinal materials cooking type fumigator, more specifically, a kind of medicinal materials cooking type fumigator, to prevent having excessive pressure and hot steam directly through cooking chamber transmission to user side, make the steam generated in the inside of steam generation chamber again through reverse circulation process, to indirectly steam transmission and supply to user side can be. BACKGROUND

[0002] Currently, heating device and fumigator for foot bath, sitz bath and half-body bath are in open top or container shape with certain size. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure the setting area, but it is inevitably limited by the site and causes economic burden due to the setting. Since the upper part is open, the steam generated by fumigation is not contained in a closed space during the process of foot bath, sitz bath and half-body bath by wet steam heating, resulting in external loss, so the high-temperature steam is easily cooled, reducing the fumigation efficiency.

[0003] In particular, the steam is supplied in an upward discharge type from the lower part of the cooking chamber containing medicinal materials to the upper part, and the dregs or medicinal material concentrate generated during the cooking of medicinal materials are easily adhered and accumulated on the inner wall of the discharge pipe, and the clogging phenomenon occurs with adhesion, so the discharge pipe needs to be cleaned frequently, causing inconvenience during use. During the cooking of medicinal materials, air bubbles are generated in the cooking chamber, the air bubbles flow into the steam generation chamber, adhere and accumulate in the pipe of the heater, reduce the thermal efficiency, and even cause electric leakage due to damage to the insulation, which has the disadvantage of corroding the pipe of the heater.

[0004] Therefore, to solve the above-mentioned existing disadvantages, the applicant filed a patent application No. 10-2021-0068124 (2021.05.27) “Downward discharge type medicinal material cooking steam cloak type fumigator”, which is configured as shown in Figure 1 The steam generated in the steam generation chamber 1 is supplied to the cooking chamber 3, and the medicinal materials 100 in the cooking chamber 3 are cooked. The steam generated by the cooking of the medicinal materials 100 is supplied to the inside of the cloak worn by the user through the detachable steam transfer pipe 8, so that fumigation can be achieved.

[0005] On the one hand, in this existing downward discharge type medicinal material cooking steam cloak type fumigator, since the high-temperature steam in the steam generation chamber is directly transmitted to the user side through the cooking chamber, a safety device for ensuring the safety of the user and maintaining the appropriate temperature of fumigation is necessary. As a common safety device, a temperature detection sensor is used to achieve temperature control. However, in the case of sudden error or failure of the safety device, the high-temperature steam is directly transmitted to the user without any control, which may cause fatal safety problems.

[0006] On the other hand, as a means for reducing the temperature of the steaming steam transferred from the steaming chamber to the user side through the steam transfer pipe, the length of the steam transfer pipe can be increased, but in this case, the length of the steam transfer pipe causes inconvenience in use. In addition, fumigation is not only used for the body, but also for the face for massage purposes, but the existing fumigator cannot be used for face massage due to the high temperature heat.

[0007] In addition, the fumigator of the applicant perforates the outer wall of the steam generating chamber in contact with water to install a heater, and in this case, when contraction occurs due to repeated heating and stopping of the heater, looseness occurs between the outer wall hole of the steam generating chamber and the heater, thereby becoming a cause of water leakage.

[0008] In addition, in the case where the fumigator is not used for a long time, the water remaining in the steam generating chamber and the inside of the steaming chamber can be spoiled, causing unhygienic use, and in the case of the steaming chamber, the residue generated during the process of steaming medicinal materials often blocks the steam discharge port, thereby also causing the problem of causing unsafe use.

[0041] The advantages, features, and processes of implementing the embodiments of this utility model will become clear with reference to the accompanying drawings and the detailed embodiments described below.

[0042] However, this utility model is not limited to the embodiments disclosed below, but can be implemented in different forms. The embodiments provided are to ensure that the disclosure of this utility model is complete and to fully inform those skilled in the art of the subject matter of this utility model. This utility model is defined only by the claims. Throughout the specification, the same reference numerals refer to the same constituent elements.

[0043] In describing embodiments of the present invention, detailed descriptions of known functions or configurations will be omitted if it is determined that such specific descriptions may unnecessarily obscure the essence of the present invention.

[0044] Furthermore, the terms used below are defined with reference to the functionality in the embodiments of this utility model, and may vary depending on the intentions or practices of the user or operator. Therefore, their definitions should be determined based on the overall content of this specification.

[0045] The medicinal herb steaming fumigation device according to the present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0046] like Figure 2 As shown, the present invention includes a fumigator body F, which includes: a steam generating chamber 1, which heats the water supplied by the water supply unit 2 and generates steam; and a cooking chamber 3, which receives the steam from the steam generating chamber 1 and cooks the medicinal materials inside, and can discharge the cooking steam from the medicinal materials 100 and supply it to the outside.

[0047] In particular, the steam generation chamber 1 is characterized by having a double-walled structure formed internally by the shielding membrane 123. This allows the steam generated inside the chamber outside the shielding membrane 123 to first move upwards and then flow counter-currently from the upper part of the shielding membrane 123 towards the lower part, thereby reducing the steam pressure and temperature. Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the shielding membrane 123 is located in the center of the steam generation chamber 1 in an elliptical shape, and is integrally erected at the bottom of the steam generation chamber 1 with its upper side open.

[0048] To elaborate further, such as Figure 5As shown, the steam generating chamber 1 includes a separate steam generating chamber body 12 and a steam generating chamber cover 13. An upper flange 131 and a lower flange 121, corresponding to the respective outer contours of the steam generating chamber cover 13 and the steam generating chamber body 12, are integrally formed and joined by flanges. Furthermore, the steam generating chamber body 12 has an annular sealing gasket groove 122 along the inner side of the lower flange 121. The assembled steam generating chamber body 12 and steam generating chamber cover 13 are sealed by an airtight sealing gasket 14 inserted into the sealing gasket groove 122. In the attached drawings, 6a (not specified) is a bimetallic overheat protection sensor, and 131a and 121a are bolt fastening holes A and B, respectively.

[0049] Furthermore, as described above, the shielding membrane 123, which has an opening 123a on the upper side of the steam generating chamber body 12, is integrally erected at the bottom of the interior. A steam outlet 124 is formed at the center of the bottom of the shielding membrane 123. A steam inflow channel 15 is formed through the gap between the steam generating chamber cover 13 and the shielding membrane 123. Through the steam inflow channel 15, steam from water heated on the outside of the shielding membrane 123 can flow into the interior of the shielding membrane 123 through the upper opening 123a. The shape of the shielding membrane 123 is not limited, as long as it can divide the interior of the steam generating chamber body 12 into a double-walled shape.

[0050] Additionally, the end of the "U"-shaped sheathed heater 133 passes through a heater through-hole 134 formed in the steam generation chamber cover 13. It is fixed and supported to the steam generation chamber cover 13 by a rubber sheathed heater fixing flange 133a built into the heater through-hole 134. The sheathed heater 133 heats the water stored outside the shielding membrane 123 and can generate steam. The sheathed heater is the basic type of electric heater. The electric heating wire is wound at the correct spacing and built into a metal protective tube (PIPE). It is filled with high-density and compressed magnesia MgO, which is safe under external physical impact. It can also be bent or processed into various shapes according to the user's purpose and form.

[0051] The steam generating chamber cover 13 has a wall facing downwards, and an upper flange 131 is integrally formed at the lower end of the wall, with a lower open groove 132 formed facing its interior space. Furthermore, a steam generating chamber drain outlet 125 is formed on the lower side of the steam generating chamber body 12, and a steam generating chamber drain pipe 126 is connected to the steam generating chamber drain outlet 125. A drain valve 126a is provided on the steam generating chamber drain pipe 126, allowing selective opening and closing of the steam generating chamber drain pipe 126 according to electronic operation command signals. This prevents corrosion caused by residual water inside the steam generating chamber 1.

[0052] On the one hand, such as Figure 6As shown, the cooking chamber 3 includes a cooking chamber body 30a, a cooking chamber cover 30b, and a mesh medicinal material tray 31 disposed between the cooking chamber body 30a and the cooking chamber cover 30b. A cooking chamber drain outlet 33 is formed on one side of the bottom of the cooking chamber body 30a, and is formed at an inclination towards the bottom of the drainage inclined surface 32. Furthermore, a cooking chamber drain pipe 34 is connected to the cooking chamber drain outlet 33, and a cooking chamber drain valve 34a is provided on the cooking chamber drain pipe 34, allowing selective opening and closing of the cooking chamber drain pipe 34 according to electronic operation command signals.

[0053] The inner wall of the lower side of the cooking chamber body 30a of the mesh medicinal material tray 31 is connected to the steam generating chamber 1 through the steam transfer pipe 10 to form a cooking chamber air inlet 3a that receives steam supply from the steam generating chamber 1. Multiple cooking chamber exhaust ports 3b are formed in a mesh form on the upper side of the cooking chamber cover 30b. The medicinal material tray 31 forms a wall along its outer contour toward the upper side. The fixing protrusion 31a is integrally formed toward the outer side of the upper end of the wall, so that the medicinal material tray 31 can be fixed to the cooking chamber body 30a through the cooking chamber cover 30b.

[0054] As described above, this invention first supplies water from the water supply unit 2 to the interior of the steam generation chamber body 12 outside the shielding membrane 123 through the steam generation chamber inlet 125. The supplied water is heated by the sheath heater 133 to generate steam, and the generated steam moves upward and then flows back into the interior of the shielding membrane 123.

[0055] Steam flowing back into the shielding membrane 123 is fed into the cooking chamber 3 through the steam outlet 124 and the steam transfer pipe 10 connected to the steam outlet 124. The steam in the steam transfer pipe 10 is supplied to the interior of the cooking chamber body 30a through the cooking chamber air inlet 3a. As the supplied steam rises, it simultaneously cooks the medicinal material 100 through the mesh medicinal material tray 31 and the medicinal material 100. The cooking steam from the medicinal material 100 exits through the cooking chamber exhaust port 3b and exits the cooking chamber cover 30b, which is also in the mesh shape, thereby achieving fumigation.

[0056] On the other hand, when the medicinal materials are steamed 100, the moisture and residue contained in the medicinal materials will fall onto the medicinal material tray 31 and accumulate or pile up at the bottom of the steaming chamber body 30a. At this time, in this utility model, since the bottom of the steaming chamber body 30a is a drainage inclined surface 32, and the end side of the drainage inclined surface 32 is formed with a steaming chamber drain outlet 33, and the upper side of the steaming chamber cover 30b is formed with a steaming chamber exhaust outlet b, not only will the steam outlet not be blocked by the moisture and residue contained in the medicinal materials, but it can also be discharged to the outside in time through the steaming chamber drain pipe 34, thereby preventing the corrosion caused by water residue together with the steam generation chamber drain pipe.

[0057] likeFigures 7 to 9 As shown, the steaming chamber 3 of this utility model includes a steaming chamber body 30a and a steaming chamber cover 30b. The steaming chamber body 30a includes a steaming chamber air inlet 3a. The surface of the steaming chamber cover 30b has multiple steaming chamber exhaust ports 3b formed by vertically penetrating holes. A steam transfer pipe 10 is connected to the steaming chamber air inlet 3a. The end side of the steam transfer pipe 10 also has a socket 42 for detachably connecting the steam transfer pipe 10 to the steaming chamber air inlet 3a of the steaming chamber body 30a.

[0058] Meanwhile, as a safety device 4, this invention has a magnet 41 on the upper side of the steam chamber cover 30b of the steam chamber body 30a, and a magnet sensor 43 on the socket 42 of the steam transfer pipe 10. When the magnet 41 and the magnet sensor 43 are close to each other, it is detected that the steam chamber cover 30b is normally attached to the steam chamber body 30a and the operation of the fumigator is maintained. When the magnet 41 and the magnet sensor 43 are far apart, that is, when the socket 42 of the steam transfer pipe 10 is separated from the steam chamber air inlet 3a of the steam chamber body 30a, or when the steam chamber cover 30b is abnormally attached to the steam chamber body 30a, or when the steam chamber body 30a falls down and the steam chamber cover 30b is separated from the steam chamber body 3a, the invention detects the above situations and stops the operation of the equipment, thereby safely protecting the user from the hot steam of the steam chamber 3.

[0059] For this purpose, a sensor mounting space 45 with an opening 45a facing rearward is formed on the upper side of the pipe joint 44 of the socket 42 into which the steam transfer pipe 10 is inserted and fixed. A PCB 46 is provided on the inner side of the sensor mounting space 45 facing the magnet 41 and in contact with the magnet sensor 43. The two sides of the opening 45a of the sensor mounting space 45 are closed by a cover 47 with hooks 47a facing forward. Note 43a (not specified) refers to a guide wire 43a leading out from the PCB 46, and 48 is a guide wire exit hole where the guide wire 43a leads out towards the outside of the cover 47 and connects to the control section of the fumigator.

[0060] Figures 10 to 12 Another embodiment of the safety device of this utility model is shown, wherein, Figure 10 A partially enlarged, detached perspective view showing the installed state of the safety device. Figure 11 To show Figure 11 A three-dimensional view of the (+) and (-) electrode sections. Figure 12 To show Figure 11 A cross-sectional view of the socket assembly state of the (+) and (-) electrode sections.

[0061] As shown in the figure, the safety device 4 of this utility model is an energized sensor, including an energized piece 51 and (+) and (-) electrode parts 52a and 52b. The energized piece 51 is an energized metal piece with a length longer than its width, which is fixed by bolts and located in the middle of the front part of the cooking chamber cover 30b. The (+) and (-) electrode portions 52a and 52b are provided on both sides of the back of the socket 42 opposite to the energizing piece 51 and are electrically connected to the control unit. When the socket 42 is connected to the steam inlet 3a of the cooking chamber, the (+) and (-) electrode portions 52a and 52b of the socket 42 are connected to the energizing piece 51 of the cooking chamber cover 30b, and the (+) and (-) electrode portions 52a and 52b are energized. Thus, the control unit detects and maintains the normal connection state of the socket 42. If the socket 42 is intentionally or unintentionally separated from the steam inlet 3a of the cooking chamber or the cooking chamber cover 30b is detached from the cooking chamber body 30a, the (+) and (-) electrode portions 52a and 52b form a non-energized cut-off state. As a result, the control unit detects the abnormal state of the socket 42 and immediately stops the operation of the equipment.

[0062] On the other hand, the (+) and (-) electrode portions 52a and 52b include a bolt B, a nut 53, a wire connecting ring 55, and a spring 55 made of non-corrosion stainless steel. The socket 42 has a bolt head mounting groove 524, a spring mounting groove 525, a bolt through hole 526, and a spring support protrusion 527. The bolt head mounting groove 524 is open to the back side of the socket 42 and has an inner diameter smaller than that of the bolt head 522. The spring mounting groove 525 has an inner diameter corresponding to that of the spring 55 located on the outside of the bolt body 521 (described later) and is continuously formed in the lower part of the bolt head mounting groove 524. The bolt through hole 526 has an inner diameter corresponding to the outer diameter of the bolt B at the center of the spring mounting groove 525. Spring support protrusions 527 are formed on both sides of the bolt through hole 526.

[0063] Bolt B is a hexagonal bolt, with bolt head 522 inserted into bolt head mounting groove 524. The bolt head mounting groove 524 is formed at a height smaller than that of the bolt head 522, causing the bolt head 522 to protrude towards the back side of the socket 42. Additionally, bolt body 521 passes through spring mounting groove 525 and bolt through hole 526, with thread 523 protruding towards the lower part of spring support protrusion 527. After the wire connector 55 is first inserted into and installed on the bolt body 521 on the thread 523 side, bolt B and wire connector 55 are fixed to the spring support protrusion 527 of the socket 42 by tightening the nut 53 on the thread 523. Then, the spring 55 is disposed inside the spring mounting groove 525, that is, outside the bolt body 521. The spring 55 supports the bolt head 522 with elastic force towards the back side of the socket 42, thereby continuously maintaining the adhesion force to the bolt head 522 of the energized piece 51 disposed on the steam chamber cover 30b, thereby eliminating poor contact between the energized piece 51 and the (+) (-) electrode portions 52a, 52b.

[0064] The outer side of the wire connection ring 55 has an annular wire insertion groove 54a. The wire and the core part with the outer sheath are wound and connected in a ring shape along the wire insertion groove 54a. This allows it to correspond to changes in the position of the device body with the control unit. This avoids the phenomenon of the connection part becoming overloaded and detaching due to changes in the position of the relative object, as is the case in conventional welding. It has the advantage of being able to maintain a continuous energized state.

[0065] In this way, the present invention has an integrally vertical shielding membrane installed inside the steam generating chamber, and has a double-walled shape. The steam heated by the heater can be indirectly transmitted and supplied to the user through the shielding membrane in a reverse circulation process. Thus, even if a sudden error or malfunction of the safety device occurs, the safety of use can be ensured. There is no need to increase the length of the steam transfer tube to reduce the steam temperature, thus eliminating the cumbersome and inconvenient use of the steam transfer tube. In addition to the user's body, it can also be used for facial massage, thereby further increasing the performance and reliability of the device.

[0066] In addition, this invention perforates the cover of the steam generating chamber that does not come into contact with water, and allows the heater to be installed inside the steam generating chamber. This effectively prevents water leakage caused by the unavoidable perforation of the water-contacting part in the prior art when installing the heater.

[0067] In addition, this invention can promptly drain the water from the steam generation chamber and the cooking chamber to the outside after using the fumigator, thereby preventing water residue inside the steam generation chamber and the cooking chamber from causing corrosion and ensuring hygiene during use.

[0068] In addition, this invention attaches a magnet to the cover of the steam chamber and has a magnetic sensor or power sensor at the socket of the steam transfer pipe of the steam chamber air inlet that is detachable from the steam chamber body. When the steam transfer pipe and the cover of the steam chamber are separated from the steam chamber body, the power supply of the equipment can be automatically cut off, thereby preventing fatal safety accidents caused by the accidental use of the fumigator.
