The present invention relates to a bidet device, and more particularly, to a bidet device capable of contributing to health improvement by enabling the hip-fumigation bath using a medicinal steam, which, first of all, allows a compact device to be implemented so that its installation or maintenance can be facilitated.


BACKGROUND ART

Conventionally, a steam generator having a structure which steams a substance beneficial to the human body and send it to a toilet seat for hip-fumigation bath was proposed by the applicant of the present invention as Korean Patent Application No. 2001-13020, which is configured as shown in FIG. 1.


The steam generator is configured such that a water tank 101 is installed at one side of the steam generator 100, a water bath 102 having a heating element 103 is formed in the vicinity of the water tank 101, and a mugwort box reservoir portion 104 for storing a net colander-shaped mugwort box 105 is formed to be communicated with the water bath 102 on the upper portion of the water bath 102.


On the upper side of the mugwort box reservoir portion 104, a steam outlet 106 for sending mugwort fumigation to a toilet seat 120 through a steam transfer pipe 107 is provided. At the lower part of the mugwort box reservoir portion 104, a drainage induction pipe 108 is formed for draining liquid material generated by a condensation phenomenon of mugwort extract.


In addition, a steam outlet 121 for appropriately feeding the mugwort steam transferred from the steam generator 100 into the toilet seat 120 is installed in the toilet seat 120 which is connected to the steam transfer pipe 107.


Hereinafter, the operation of the conventional steam generator as configured above will be described.


Water is supplied from the water tank 101 to the water bath 102, water in the water bath 102 is heated by the heating element 103 to generate steam. The steam moves to the mugwort box reservoir portion 104 through a steam communicating pipe 109 communicating between the water bath 102 and the mugwort box reservoir portion 104, and steams mugworts in the mugwort box 105 which is installed to be engaged in the mugwort box reservoir portion 104. The mugwort steam steamed by the steam passes through the steam outlet 106 and the steam transfer pipe 107 which are formed at one side of the upper portion of the mugwort box reservoir portion 104, and then the steam is blown into the toilet seat 120 through a steam spout 121 installed in the toilet seat 120 so that the hip-fumigation bath can be performed.


Therefore, in the case of women as well as men, when considering the physical structure and the place of fomentation, it is possible to perform the hip-fumigation bath with comforting and stable mind by using the toilet which is a closed space, thereby bringing great help to the space utilization and the health promotion.


However, the above technique has several disadvantages as follows.


The conventional steam generator as described above has disadvantages that when the mugwort is fumigated, since the mugwort extract of liquid substance generated by the condensation phenomenon, etc. flows into the water bath 102 through the steam communicating pipe while being collected to the lower portion of the mugwort box reservoir portion 104, the water contained in the water tank 102 may be contaminated and unsanitary and the devices such as the heating element 103 are easily aged.


In addition, a steam ejecting hole 121 for guiding and feeding the mugwort steam delivered from the steam generator 100 into the toilet seat 120 is provided as a single body as shown in FIG. 2, and half-circular inlet ports 121a and 121b which are formed on both sides of the steam ejecting hole 121 are fixed and tightened by a bolt 123a and a nut 123b which are fastening members of the hinge axis 122a and 122b.


Since a hip fumigator with the steam generator 100 of FIG. 1 and the et bedded steam generator 1 of FIG. 3 is installed on the floor of a toilet, it occupies a complicated space, the toilet seat is not fixed at a predetermined place and is detached when cleaning the toilet, and thus causing malfunction, breakdown, or breakage. Therefore there was a risk of electric shock due to current flows when the bottom of the toilet and the hip fumigator are wetted.


In addition, the medicinal extract solution steamed in the steaming chamber has a structure that flows out to the floor of the toilet like the drainage induction pipe 108 shown in FIG. 1, so that there was a trouble that the floor of the toilet soiled with extracted liquid foreign substance has to be cleaned from time to time.


Therefore, in order to compensate these faults, a compact device that implemented the function of the hip fumigation in the bidet tank is necessary, and it is necessary to develop a technology for a bidet device capable of dramatically improving safety and convenience and easily performing installation or maintenance.
