Abstract

To provide a bathing device that uses naturally derived materials, stably exhibits the effects of hot springs such as warming, heat retention, and skin improvement, and can be used repeatedly. [Solution] A bathing device is created by mixing pellets, which are made by firing a blend of raw materials containing natural hot spring deposits and natural minerals, with activated carbon, and storing these in a water-permeable mesh bag 3. By placing this in a bathtub, a stable hot spring-like effect is produced, including warming, heat retention, and improved skin feel, and it can be used repeatedly.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a bathing appliance used by being put into a bathtub, and particularly relates to a bathing appliance having a hot spring-like effect that can be repeatedly used by combining fired pellets formed using natural-derived materials and activated carbon.

Background Art

[0002] Conventionally, in household bathtubs and hot bath facilities, powdery or granular bath agents, or bath agents in which natural bath flowers are filled in a bag are widely used. However, many of these are disposable, having problems such as limited usage times, non-uniform elution of components, and difficulty in stably maintaining performance with long-term use. Also, although bathing appliances using charcoal and mineral fired bodies are known, there are few that have been sufficiently studied regarding combinations with mineral components including bath flowers and structures assuming reuse.

Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0003] In view of the problems of the above prior art, the present invention aims to provide a bathing appliance that stably exhibits hot spring-like effects such as hot bathing, heat retention, and improvement of skin texture while using natural-derived materials and enables multiple repeated uses.

Means for Solving the Problems

[0004] The bathing appliance according to the present invention adopts a configuration in which pellets fired by blending raw materials containing natural bath flowers and natural minerals and activated carbon are mixed and stored in a water-permeable mesh bag.

Effects of the Invention

[0005] Component elution is stable, and the hot spring-like effect is continuously exhibited Improvement of heat sensation persistence due to hot bathing and heat retention effects Gentle touch on the skin and smooth bathing feeling It can be reused 30 or more times, preferably 50 to 60 times.

Claims

1. A bathing device comprising pellets made by firing a mixture of raw materials including natural hot spring deposits and natural minerals, mixed with activated carbon, and stored in a water-permeable mesh bag, characterized in that when the bathing device is placed in a bathtub, it exhibits hot spring-like effects including warming, heat retention, and improvement of skin texture, and can be used repeatedly multiple times.

2. The bathing device according to claim 1, characterized in that the pellets are formed by molding natural hot spring deposits and natural minerals with an inorganic binder and then firing them.

3. The bathing device according to claim 1 or 2, characterized in that the pellets maintain their shape during bathing while gradually releasing mineral-derived components into the bathwater.

4. The bathing device according to any one of claims 1 to 4, characterized in that the mesh bag is made of a material that is water-resistant and heat-resistant, and has a structure that allows it to be dried after bathing.
