Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a device that contributes to the improvement of human health in relation to hydrogen and exosomes. [Background technology]

[0002] In recent years, people have become increasingly concerned about their health. That is to say, while it is a basic principle to seek medical treatment when you get sick, an increasing number of people are now taking care of their health on a daily basis to prevent themselves from getting sick.

[0003] As part of this trend, hydrogen has been attracting attention in recent years. Hydrogen has antioxidant properties and is known to be effective in preventing disease. For this reason, people are increasingly inhaling hydrogen gas and drinking water with dissolved hydrogen (hydrogen water). In addition, exosomes are granular extracellular vesicles with a diameter of 30 to 150 nm (nanometers) that are released from animal or plant cells, and in recent years, exosomes have become known to have various effects, such as anti-inflammatory and skin-beautifying effects.

[0004] Prior art related to the present invention is shown in, for example, Patent Documents 1 and 2. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0005] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Publication No. 2023-098613 [Patent Document 2] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2024-000183 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0006] The present invention provides a device that makes it possible to obtain both the effects of hydrogen and the effects of exosomes. [Means for solving the problem]

[0007] In order to solve the above problems, a first aspect of the present invention is a hydrogen and hydrogen-dissolved exosome liquid generating device comprising: a hydrogen generation source that generates hydrogen; an exosome liquid storage device that is an at least substantially sealed container located downstream of the hydrogen generation source and that stores exosome liquid; a hydrogen inlet channel that connects the hydrogen generation source to the exosome liquid storage device and introduces hydrogen generated in the hydrogen generation source into the exosome liquid in the exosome liquid storage device to produce hydrogen-dissolved exosome liquid; a hydrogen outlet channel that allows hydrogen released from the exosome liquid in the exosome liquid storage device to flow out of the exosome liquid storage device; and a hydrogen-dissolved exosome liquid outflow mechanism that is located in the exosome liquid storage device and allows the hydrogen-dissolved exosome liquid stored in the exosome liquid storage device to flow out of the exosome liquid storage device.

[0008] Here, "exosome liquid" means a liquid containing exosomes in a dispersed state.

[0009] Furthermore, as a limited example of the first aspect, there is an aspect in which "the exosome liquid storage device is provided downstream of the hydrogen generation source, is an at least approximately sealed container, and stores the exosome liquid while leaving excess space above where gas exists."

[0010] The device of this aspect has the following advantages. The hydrogen generated in the hydrogen generation source is introduced into the exosome liquid in the exosome liquid storage device via the hydrogen introduction path. The hydrogen rises in the form of bubbles within the exosome liquid, some of which dissolves in the exosome liquid along the way, producing a hydrogen-dissolved exosome liquid. The hydrogen-dissolved exosome liquid then flows out of the exosome liquid storage device via the hydrogen-dissolved exosome liquid outflow mechanism. The hydrogen-dissolved exosome liquid is then available for consumption by the user. On the other hand, the remaining hydrogen (hydrogen introduced into the exosome liquid that did not dissolve in the exosome liquid) rises to the surface of the exosome liquid as bubbles and escapes from the exosome liquid. The hydrogen gas then flows out of the exosome liquid storage device via the hydrogen outflow path. In the limited example described above, the hydrogen fills the excess space in the exosome liquid storage device and then flows out of the exosome liquid storage device via the hydrogen outflow path. The hydrogen is then made available for inhalation by the user.

[0011] In this way, with this device, the hydrogen-dissolved exosome liquid is provided for the user to drink, and hydrogen gas is also provided for the user to inhale. In this way, users can ingest hydrogen as a gas, hydrogen dissolved in a liquid (hydrogen-dissolved exosome liquid), and exosomes contained in the liquid (hydrogen-dissolved exosome liquid), thereby improving the health of users.

[0012] A second aspect of the present invention is a hydrogen and hydrogen-dissolved exosome liquid generator according to the first aspect (including the above-mentioned limiting examples; the same applies below), in which the exosome liquid outflow mechanism is a lid that is detachably attached to the exosome liquid storage device having an opening.

[0013] In addition to the effects of the device of the first embodiment, the device of this embodiment has the following effects. By removing the lid from the exosome liquid storage device, the hydrogen-dissolved exosome liquid in the exosome liquid storage device can flow out from the exosome liquid storage device, making the hydrogen-dissolved exosomes easily available to the user.

[0014] A third aspect of the present invention is a hydrogen and hydrogen-dissolved exosome liquid generating device according to the first or second aspect, wherein the exosome liquid contained in the exosome liquid storage device contains silicon dioxide.

[0015] In addition to the effects of the device of the first or second aspect, the device of this aspect has the following effects. The hydrogen-dissolved exosome liquid produced in the exosome liquid storage device contains silicon dioxide (silica), which also contributes to improving the health of users.

[0016] A fourth aspect of the present invention is a hydrogen and hydrogen-dissolved exosome liquid generator according to any one of the first to third aspects, wherein the exosome liquid contained in the exosome liquid storage device contains one or more exosomes selected from the group consisting of exosomes derived from moringa, Ryukyu pine needles, autumn turmeric, purple sweet potato, brown sugar, and longevity grass.

[0017] In addition to the effects of any of the devices of the first to third aspects, the device of this aspect provides the following effects. The present inventors have found that exosomes derived from moringa, Ryukyu pine needles, autumn turmeric, purple sweet potato, brown sugar, or chomeisou grass are particularly useful for the human body. In this embodiment, these exosomes are used, which also contributes to improving the health of the user. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0018] [Figure 1] 1 is a perspective view showing an embodiment of the present invention. [Figure 2] 1 is a cross-sectional view showing an embodiment of the present invention, and also showing a state in which a user inhales hydrogen. [Figure 3] 1 is a cross-sectional view showing an embodiment of the present invention, and also showing a state in which a user drinks a hydrogen-dissolved exosome liquid. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0019] Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. 1 and 2, this hydrogen and hydrogen-dissolved exosome liquid generation device includes a hydrogen generation tumbler 10 and an exosome liquid tumbler 30. The hydrogen generation tumbler 10 corresponds to the "hydrogen generation source" of the present invention, and the exosome liquid tumbler 30 corresponds to the "exosome liquid storage device" of the present invention.

[0020] The hydrogen generating tumbler 10 is a bottomed cylindrical container made of glass, etc. A lid 20 is detachably fitted in an airtight manner to an opening (reference numeral omitted) at the upper end of the hydrogen generating tumbler 10. An insertion hole 22 is formed in the lid 20. The insertion hole 22 rises upward in a cylindrical shape from the lid 20 (its main body).

[0021] 2, water 11 and a hydrogen generating agent (not shown) are stored in the hydrogen generating tumbler 10. The hydrogen generating agent is, for example, a mixture of calcium oxide powder and aluminum powder, and generates hydrogen when mixed with water.

[0022] The water 11 and the hydrogen generating agent are contained up to a mid-height position in (the interior of) the hydrogen generating tumbler 10. Thus, in the internal space of the hydrogen generating tumbler 10, a surplus space 15 (head space) exists above the water 11 containing the hydrogen generating agent. Before use, air exists in the surplus space 15.

[0023] The excess space 15 does not necessarily have to exist, and the water 11 and the hydrogen generating agent may be contained in the hydrogen generating tumbler 10 (inside thereof) up to the upper edge thereof.

[0024] 1 and 2, the exosome liquid tumbler 30 is also a bottomed cylindrical container made of glass or the like. A lid 40 is also removably fitted in an airtight manner to an opening (reference numeral omitted) at the upper end of the exosome liquid tumbler 30. The lid 40 has a hydrogen inlet 42 and a hydrogen outlet 46 formed therein.

[0025] As shown in FIG. 2, exosome liquid tumbler 30 contains exosome liquid 31. The exosome liquid 31 contains exosomes dispersed in water. A preferred example of water is silica water, which contains dispersed silicon dioxide powder in the exosome liquid 31. As the exosomes, plant exosomes are particularly preferred. Among these, exosomes derived from moringa, Ryukyu pine needles, autumn turmeric, purple sweet potato, brown sugar, or Chou-mei-sou are preferred. In this example, one or a combination of multiple of these is contained.

[0026] The exosome liquid 31 is contained up to a mid-height position in the exosome liquid tumbler 30 (its interior). Thus, in the internal space of the exosome liquid tumbler 30, a surplus space 35 (headspace) exists above the exosome liquid 31. Before use, air exists in the surplus space 35.

[0027] The excess space 35 does not necessarily have to exist, and the exosome liquid 31 may be contained in the exosome liquid tumbler 30 (inside thereof) up to its upper edge.

[0028] The hydrogen inlet portion 42 (its main body) protrudes upward in the shape of a covered cylinder, and its peripheral wall is formed with a connecting portion 44. The connecting portion 44 is tubular and extends horizontally outward (centrifugally).

[0029] As shown in Figures 1 and 2, the hydrogen generating tumbler 10 and the exosome liquid tumbler 30 are connected by a tube 60. The tube 60 is flexible, and near its base end, passes through the insertion hole 22 in the lid 20 of the hydrogen generating tumbler 10 (FIG. 2), with the base end being located within the excess space 15 inside the hydrogen generating tumbler 10. Note that if there is no excess space 15 in the hydrogen generating tumbler 10, the base end of the tube 60 will be located at the lower end or at an intermediate height position of the insertion hole 22. The tip of the tube 60 is connected to the connection part 44 (FIG. 2) of the hydrogen inlet part 42 via a connection pipe 62.

[0030] A hydrogen supply pipe 64 (FIG. 2) is connected to the hydrogen inlet portion 42. The hydrogen supply pipe 64 has a straight pipe shape. The base end of the hydrogen supply pipe 64 is fitted inside the hydrogen inlet portion 42 (its main body) at a portion below the connecting portion 44. The hydrogen supply pipe 64 extends vertically downward from its base end, and its tip is located near the bottom of the exosome liquid tumbler 30. Thus, the tip of the hydrogen supply pipe 64 is present in the exosome liquid 31 contained inside the exosome liquid tumbler 30. The tube 60 and the hydrogen supply pipe 64 correspond to the "hydrogen introduction path" of the present invention (strictly speaking, the hydrogen inlet portion 42 is also included in the "hydrogen introduction path").

[0031] The hydrogen outflow portion 46 (its main body) also protrudes upward in the shape of a covered cylinder, and a connecting portion 48 (FIG. 2) is formed on its peripheral wall. The connecting portion 48 is tubular and extends horizontally outward (centrifugally).

[0032] As shown in Figures 1 and 2, a tube 70 is connected to the exosome liquid tumbler 30 (hydrogen outflow section 46). The tube 70 is also flexible, and its base end is connected to the connection portion 48 (FIG. 2) of the hydrogen outflow portion 46 via a connecting pipe 72. The distal end portion of the tube 70 is bifurcated. The tube 70 corresponds to the "hydrogen outflow path" of the present invention (strictly speaking, the hydrogen outflow portion 46 also corresponds to the "hydrogen outflow portion").

[0033] Next, we will explain how to use and the effects of this hydrogen and hydrogen-dissolved exosome liquid generator.

[0034] As shown in FIG. 2, the hydrogen generating tumbler 10 contains water 11 and a hydrogen generating agent, and hydrogen is generated by a chemical reaction between the hydrogen generating agent and the water 11 (as described above). The hydrogen fills the excess space 15 and then flows out of the hydrogen generating tumbler 10 through the tube 60. If the excess space 15 does not exist, the hydrogen flows out directly through the tube 60.

[0035] The hydrogen then flows into the exosome liquid tumbler 30. That is, the hydrogen passes through the hydrogen supply pipe 64 and flows into the exosome liquid 31 contained in the exosome liquid tumbler 30. The hydrogen then rises as bubbles within the exosome liquid 31, and while some of it dissolves in the exosome liquid 31, most of it escapes from the exosome liquid 31, filling the excess space 35, and then flows out of the exosome liquid tumbler 30 through the tube 70. If there is no excess space 35 in the exosome liquid tumbler 30, the exosome liquid flows out of the exosome liquid tumbler 30 directly through the tube 70.

[0036] As shown in FIG. 2, the user can inhale hydrogen (gas hydrogen) flowing out from the tube 70 by placing the tip of the tube 70 in their nostril.

[0037] Furthermore, as described above, hydrogen dissolves in the exosome liquid 31 in the exosome liquid tumbler 30 to produce hydrogen-dissolved exosome liquid 32. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 3, the user can open the lid 40 as needed and drink the hydrogen-dissolved exosome liquid 32 directly or indirectly (i.e., by transferring it to another container 80).

[0038] In this way, this device makes it possible to inhale hydrogen as a gas, and also to drink a liquid containing hydrogen and exosomes (hydrogen-dissolved exosome liquid 32), thereby promoting health.

[0039] It should be noted that the above is merely one embodiment of the present invention, and it goes without saying that the present invention can be implemented in various modified forms based on the knowledge of those skilled in the art.

[0040] For example, an outlet hole may be formed in the lid 20, and a plug may be detachably attached to the outlet hole. In this case, the hydrogen-dissolved exosome liquid 32 in the exosome liquid tumbler 30 can be removed by opening the plug without opening the lid 20. [Explanation of symbols]
