The present application is National Phase of International Application No. PCT/JP2012/051249 filed Jan. 20, 2012, and claims priority from Japanese Application No. 2011-010648, filed Jan. 21, 2011.
The present invention relates to a pressurized gas mist bathing system for improving absorption efficiency of gas from the skin or the mucous membrane of a living organism, in which a mist is prepared by pulverizing and dissolving a liquid of oxygen or carbon dioxide and a medicine, or a mixed gas of oxygen and carbon dioxide and the medicine, and the mist is caused to directly contact the skin and mucous membrane of the living organism at pressure of not less than a predetermined value.
Conventionally, it has been known that carbon dioxide (carbonic acid anhydride: CO2) has two properties of being not only soluble in water (water-soluble) but also soluble in fat (fat-soluble) and, owing to having both properties, when only contacting to the skin and the mucous membrane of the living organism which are like as mixed with water and fat, carbon dioxide penetrates under a subcutaneous tissue and expands blood vessels around the penetrated parts, and it works to improve the blood circulation. By this action of accelerating the blood circulation, it displays various physiological effects such as dropping of blood pressure, improving of metabolism or accelerating to remove pain substance or waste product. Further, it has also anti-inflammation and anti-bacterial function. Therefore, carbon dioxide has recently been given attentions also from viewpoints of improving health or beauty other than the purpose of medical cares.
In the tissue of the living organism, carbon dioxide works to release oxygen having been carried in combination with hemoglobin existing in a red blood cell. Around parts at the high concentration of carbon dioxide, the red blood cell releases more oxygen. Thus, supply of oxygen to cells by the red blood cell is mainly controlled by carbon dioxide. In short, being without carbon dioxide, hemoglobin remains as having been combined with oxygen and the cell becomes unable to receive oxygen. Carbon dioxide seems to be waste products resulted from action of the cell, however, as is seen, it plays in fact very important roles in the living organism.
Further, recently, oxygen of the high concentration has also widely been known as effective over activity of metabolism, acceleration of blood circulation, fatigue recovery, or stability of blood pressure. Other than them, oxygen has effects of disinfection or sterilization by oxidation.
Thereupon, an inventor of this invention has developed a pressurized gas mist bathing device and system, in which a medicine is dissolved efficiently in oxygen or carbon dioxide, and in addition to these gases, a physiological action of the medicine is given effectively to the living organism.
For ensuring hygiene of the pressurized gas mist bathing device as above mentioned, desirably, parts of generating the gas mist are made disposable. However, if disposable parts are large in size, a cost becomes high and futility increases.
In view of the above mentioned circumstances, it is an object of the invention to provide such a pressurized gas mist bathing system, only one part of which is made disposable for ensuring hygiene so that reduction in costs can be realized.
For solving the above mentioned problems, the invention is to provide a pressurized gas mist bathing system, which causes a mist to contact the skin or the mucous membrane of a living organism, the mist (called as “gas mist” hereafter) having been prepared by pulverizing and dissolving carbon dioxide or oxygen and liquid, or a mixed gas (called as “gas” hereafter) of carbon dioxide and oxygen and liquid of concentration being not less than predetermined value, and which comprises a gas supply means; a gas mist generating means which has a connecting portion connected to the gas supply means, a liquid storage of storing a liquid, a nozzle to be supplied with gas, a liquid suction pipe of sending the liquid to the tip of the nozzle, a collision member of colliding the liquid blown up by a gas stream from the nozzle therewith, a cylindrical gas inlet supplied with the gas and leading the gas till the upper portion of the nozzle, and a donut-shaped gas mist outlet of collecting and discharging the gas mist; and a living organism cover for covering the skin or the mucous membrane of the living organism and formed with a space for sealing inside the gas mist from the gas mist generating means, and wherein the gas mist generating means is characterized in that at least the liquid storage is displaceable and replaced by another liquid storage.
By the way, the invention refers it as “pulverizing and dissolving” to pulverize the liquid into fine liquid drops, and cause to contact and mix with gas (oxygen or carbon dioxide, or the mixed gas of oxygen and carbon dioxide).
Herein, the pressurized gas mist bathing system of the invention is desirably further provided with sensors for detecting measured values of air pressure, temperature, concentrations of oxygen and carbon dioxide, moisture and others, and control means for controlling interiors of the living organism cover members based on the measured values of the sensors to be within ranges of the set values having been previously determined.
It is also sufficient to further equip a pressurizing means for pressurizing the interior of the living organism cover member. By the way, this pressurizing means communicates with the living organism cover member, and desirably consists of a hollow gas storage enabling to discharge the gas mist into the living organism cover member.
If the gas mist-is supplied intermittently into the living organism cover member by the control means, the living organism cover member may be effected with interval pressurization. Otherwise, if the pressurization member intermittently discharges the gas mist into the living organism cover member, it is also sufficient to carry out the interval pressurization on the living organism cover member.
Herein, preferably, the gas mist generating means has an air hole for taking in outside air.
Next, it is best that the above mentioned liquid is any one or plural combination of water, ionic water, ozone water, physiological salt solution, purified water, or sterilized and purified water.

In the following description, explanations will be made to embodiments of this invention, referring to the attached drawings.
[First Embodiment]
The gas supply means 10 supplies gas to a nozzle 33 and a gas inlet 37 of a later mentioned gas mist generator 30. The gas supply means 10 is provided with a regulator for adjusting pressure of gas, though not illustrated. There may be equipped a heater for heating gas and a temperature gauge for controlling temperature.
By the way, herein illustrated is an example of one gas supply means 10 supplying gas to both of the nozzle 33 and the gas inlet 37 of the gas mist generator 30, and it is also enough to furnish a plurality of gas supply Means 10 for supplying gas to the nozzle 33 and the gas inlet 37 from respectively different gas supply means 10. At this time, gases to be supplied may be different or the same.
The gas mist generator 30 stores previously the liquid therein, generates the gas mist made by pulverizing and dissolving the liquid and gas by high speed flow of gas supplied from the gas supply means 10, and supplies this gas mist into the pressurized living organism bathing cover 50.
The liquid storage 32 is, as shown in
Thus, the invention makes the at least liquid storage 32 removable in the gas mist generator 30 for replacing it with another new liquid storage 32 so that disposable parts are made less for restraining costs. Further, the generator main body 31 is offered as having been sealed, and by making disposable at any time, hygiene can be thus maintained. In particular, since the invention makes the liquid storage 32 disposable and can exchange it with a new liquid storage 32, it is possible to omit a structure of supplying the liquid such as medicines into the liquid storage 32, and realize reduction in size and in cost. By the way, this removable generator main body 31 is preferably sterilized in a manufacturing stage. Further, non-displaceable parts are also dealt with sterilization treatment prior to use.
Herein, for the liquid stored in the liquid storage 42, it is preferable to employ water, ionic water, ozone water physiological salt solution, purified water or sterilized and purified water. Further, these liquids are sufficient to contain medicines useful to users' diseases or symptom. As the medicines, for example, listed are anti-allergic agent, anti-inflammatory agent, anti-febrile agent, anti-fungus agent, anti-influenza virus agent, influenza vaccine, steroid agent, anti-cancer agent, anti-hypertensive agent, cosmetic, or trichogen. Further, these liquids are further possible to generate synergistic effects by coupling with a gas physiological action with single or plurality of menthol having a cooling action; vitamin E accelerating circulation of the blood; vitamin C derivative easily to be absorbed to a skin tissue and having a skin beautifying effect; retinol normalizing a skin heratinizing action and protecting the mucous membrane; anesthetic agent moderating irritation to the mucous membrane; cyclodextrin removing odor; photocatalysis or a complex of photocatalysis and apatite having disinfection and anti-phlogistic; hyaluronic acid having excellent water holding capacity and a skin moisture retention effect; coenzyme Q10 activating cells and heightening immunization; a seed oil containing anti-oxidation and much nutrient; or propolis having anti-oxidation, anti-fungus, a anti-inflammatory agent, pain-killing, anesthetic, and immunity. Otherwise, the liquid may be added with ethanol, gluconic acid chlorohexizine, amphoteric surface active agent, benzalkonium chloride, alkyldiamino ether glycin acetate, sodium hypochlorite, acetyl hydroperoxide, sodium sesqui-carbonate, silica, povidone-iodine, sodium hydrogen carbonate. In addition, carbonate spring of high concentration may be added (examples of organic components are sulfate, carbonate, or sodium dichloroiso-cyanurate).
At the bottom center of the generator main body 31 (the liquid storage 32), the nozzle 33 is placed. This nozzle 33 upheaves from the bottom of the liquid storage 32, and is shaped to be almost a circular cone squeezed toward an upper side of the generator main body 31. The nozzle 33 is connected, at its base end, to a gas discharge pipe 35A of the gas supply means connecting portion 35 to enable to discharge gas from its point open 33A.
The liquid suction pipe 34A is formed between the outer circumference of the nozzle 33 and the liquid suction pipe forming member 34 of the almost circular cone being larger by one turn than the nozzle 33. That is, as shown in
The gas supply means connecting portion 35 is a connecting portion with the gas supply means 10, and the gas flow from the gas supply means 10 is diverged into two branches (diverging part 35B in
The cover 36 is a member which is attached on the upper part of the generator main body 31 and introduces the generated gas mist into the pressurized living organism bathing cover 50. Further, if supplying gas into the generator main body 31 independently of the nozzle 33, the member 36 heightens supplying pressure of the gas mist into the pressurized living organism bathing cover 50. Details of the cover 36 are shown in
The cover part 36 has a gas inlet 37 which introduces gas into the generator main body 31 and makes air current for discharging the gas mist, a baffle (collision member) 38 disposed at a position in opposition to the point open 33A of the nozzle 33, and a gas mist outlet 39 which collects the gas mist and discharges into the pressurized living organism bathing cover 50.
The gas inlet 37 is a substantially L-shaped pipe hole for guiding gas from the outside of the cover part 36 until the periphery of the nozzle 33 of the generator main body 31, and the gas diverged by the gas supply means connecting portion 35 is supplied from this place into the generator main body 31. The gas inlet 37 is furnished on its upper part with a gas introducing mouth 37A connected via a tube or the like to the gas supply means connecting portion 35. The gas introducing mouth 37A may be furnished with an air hole for taking in outside air, though not illustrating here. It is sufficient to dispose a flow controller (for example, valve) 35C for controlling a gas supply amount to the gas inlet 37 as shown in
The baffle 38 is placed by a baffle supporter 38A in the vicinity of the lower end of the gas inlet 37. By the way, there is shown the example of the baffle 38 being secured to the cover part 36, but it may be disposed toward the side of the generator main body 31.
A gas mist outlet 39 is a donut shaped space formed around the cylindrical gas inlet 37 by the side and the upper part of the inside of the cover part 36. As having mentioned above, preferably, the gas inlet 37 is cylindrically shaped and the gas mist outlet 39 is donut-shape, but not necessarily limited thereto. Thus, by not partitioning but widening the space of the gas mist outlet 39, the mist can be smoothly discharged and prevented from liquefaction. Further, since the structure is simplified thereby, the cover 36 is heightened in washing efficiency and can be served hygienically.
The gas mist is generated owing to the nozzle 33 and baffle 38, and driven to the gas mist outlet 39 by gas from the gas inlet 37. The gas mist outlet 39 leads the gas mist to the pressurized living organism bathing cover 50. At the upper part of the gas mist outlet 39, there is provided a gas mist outlet 39A connected to the gas mist supply pipe 41 combining the gas mist generator 30 and the pressurized living organism bathing cover 50.
If the gas mist supply pipe 41 is composed wholly or partially with a cornice shaped and soft pipe of large diameter as shown in
The gas mist supply pipe 41 is furnished at the inside with a check valve for preventing back flow of the gas mist. The gas mist supply pipe 41 may be provided with a filter for removing surplus liquid drops attached to the inside of the pipe, though not illustrated.
The pressurized living organism bathing cover 50 enables to form a space for covering the skin and mucous membrane of the living organism (herein, as the example, the lower extremity of the living organism) and to seal the gas mist inside. As an example,
The pressurized living organism bathing cover 50 is connected to the gas mist supply pipe 41 and has the supply port 51 for introducing the gas mist inside. The supply port 51 is provided inside with the check valve to prevent from back-flow of the gas mist. The pressurized living organism bathing cover 50 may have an open or a valve enabling to exhaust the gas mist for controlling inside pressure. The pressure control may be performed manually, but is desirably automatically based on measuring values of a later mentioned manometer 71 by a control device 60 together with supply or control of the gas mist. Further, a safety valve (by-pass valve) may be provided for automatically opening the valve when the inside of the pressurized bathing cover 50 becomes more than a constant pressure.
The pressurized living organism bathing cover 50 is inside installed with the manometer 71 for measuring internal pressure. The control device 60 controls generation or supply of the gas mist on the basis of measuring values of the manometer 71 for maintaining a pressure value within the pressurized living organism bathing cover 50 to be more than 1 air pressure (more preferably, around 1.02 to 2.5 air pressure). For example, supply of gas from the gas supply means 10 is controlled or stopped, otherwise, the gas mist from the pressurized living organism bathing cover 50 is exhausted. Further, the pressurized living organism bathing cover 50 is inside installed with a temperature gauge 72 for measuring temperature within the pressurized living organism bathing cover 50. The control device 60 performs “on-off” of a heater installed in the gas supply means 10 on the basis of measuring values of the temperature gauge 72 for maintaining a determined temperature (for example, around 38° C.) bringing about warm bath effects within the pressurized living organism bathing cover 50. As to others, the pressurized living organism bathing cover 50 may be installed inside with sensors for measuring concentrations of oxygen and carbon dioxide, moisture and others for controlling interiors of the cover based on the measured values to be within ranges of predetermined values by the control 60.
The pressurized living organism bathing cover 50 has, around its opening, a stopper 52 for attaching to and detaching from the living organism (herein, the lower extremity of the living organism) and for preventing leakage of the gas mist. The stopper 52 is suitably composed of, e.g., a face fastener of stretching property, or may have a sole string, rubber or their combination. For heightening a sealing property of the pressurized living organism bathing cover 50, the inside (such as an inside of the stopper 52) thereof may have a material attaching to the user's skin. The adhesive material is preferably, for example, a visco-elastic gel made of poly-urethane or silicone rubber. Further this adhesive material is detachably used and exchangeable each time or if viscosity becomes weak.
The control device 60 is composed of a computer having CPU, memory and display. The gas pressure from the gas supply means 10, on-off switch of pressure, on-off switch of supply of the gas mist are performed for the pressurized gas mist bathing under the optimum condition. In particular, preferably, when the pressure value becomes more than a predetermined value in the pressurized living organism bathing cover 50, such a structure stops supplying the gas from the gas supply means 10 by the control device 60.
Next, reference will be made to one example of sequences taking the gas mist bathing by use of the pressurized gas mist bathing system of the above mentioned first embodiment.
At first, the sealed generator main body 31 is opened, the gas supply means connecting portion 35 and the cover 36 are set, and the gas mist generator 30 is accomplished. Subsequently, the gas supply means 10, the gas mist generator 30, the pressurized living organism bathing cover 50 and the control device 60 are connected, respectively. The pressurized living organism bathing cover 50 is fixedly secured to the living organism (herein, the lower extremity of the living organism) and closed. And the gas starts to supply from the gas supply means 10 into the gas mist generator 30.
When the gas is supplied into the nozzle 33, since the nozzle 33 is, as shown in
The gas is further supplied also from the gas inlet 37 into the generator main body 31 to increase discharging pressure of the generated gas mist. During generating the gas mist, the control device 60 carries out adjustments of the supplying pressure or temperature of gas.
The generated gas mist is discharged into the pressurized living organism bathing cover 50 from the gas mist supply pipe 39 via the gas mist supply pipe 41. The control device 60 adjusts each of the means from the measuring values of the manometer 71 and the temperature gauge 72, such that the inside of the pressurized living organism bathing cover 50 is made optimum pressurized and heated condition (around 1.02 to 2.5 air pressure and around 38° C.), and under these conditions, the pressurized gas mist bathing is performed.
The above mentioned explanation has been made to the lower extremities of the human living organism as the example to be performed with the pressurized gas mist bathing, and the invention is applicable to various parts of the living organism. Then, the optimum pressurized gas mist bathing is performed by using the shapes of the pressurized living organism bathing cover 50 meeting object parts of the living organism.
In regard to the pressurized living organism bathing cover 50, various shapes may be assumed other than the examples shown in
In the pressurized gas mist bathing, the gas mist is contacted to the skin and mucous membrane of the living organism at pressure of more than the predetermined value, and heightens the effects by pulsing at predetermined intervals, and therefore the control device 60 may supply the gas mist into the pressurized living organism bathing cover 50 intermittently at fixed rhythm. As to the interval pressurization at such a case, if synchronizing with pulsations, the effects are more heightened.
[Second Embodiment]
As shown in
The pressurized gas mist bathing cover 80 has almost the same structure of the pressurized living organism bathing cover 50 shown in the first embodiment, and has a gas mist supply port 81 and a stopper gas 82, providing that the supply port 81 is connected to the pressurizing means 90 in the present embodiment. By the way, as an example herein, the pressurized bathing cover 80 having a shape of covering a hand of the living organism is illustrated.
The pressurizing means 90 pressurizes the inside of the pressurized living organism bathing cover 80, and therefore has a hollow gas storage 91 communicating with the pressurized living organism bathing cover 80. The gas storage 91 is composed of a soft material having pressure resistance, non-air permeability and non-moisture permeability. The pressurizing means 90 is connected to the supply port 81 of the living organism pressurized bathing cover 80, and has a supply port 92 from which the gas mist is supplied into the gas storage 91. In addition, the supply port 92 of the pressurizing means 90 is also provided inside with the check valve for checking back-flow of the gas mist.
For pressurizing the pressurized living organism bathing cover 80 by the pressurizing means 90, the gas mist is stored in the gas storage 91 under a condition where the gas mist is moderately stored within the pressurized living organism bathing cover 80. If pressurizing the gas storage 91 in a manner as crashing as shown with arrows in
The pressurizing means 90 is enough with a structure of manually pushing, or sufficient to mechanically control by the control device 60 using a driving device. As mentioned above, since pressurization in the pressurized gas mist bath heightens effects by pulse-like performance of a determined interval, it is effective to intermittently push the pressurizing means 90 at constant rhythm.
When taking the pressurized gas mist bathing by use of the pressurized gas mist bathing system of this embodiment, at first, the sealed generator main body 31 is opened, the gas supply means connecting portion 35 and the cover 36 are set, so that the gas mist generator 30 is accomplished. Next, the gas supply means 10, the gas mist generator 30, the pressurized living organism bathing cover 80, the control device 60 and others are connected successively. The pressurized living organism bathing cover 80 is fixed to the living organism (herein, the hand) and closed. Supply of gas starts from the gas supply means 10 into the gas mist generator 30 for generating the gas mist. During this period, the control device 60 controls supply pressure, amount of the liquid and gas, and temperature.
The generated gas mist is discharged from the gas mist outlet 39 into the pressurizing means 90 and the pressurized living organism bathing cover 80 through gas mist pipe 41. The control device 60 controls the respective means from measuring values of the temperature gauge 72, such that the inside of the pressurized living organism bathing cover 80 is maintained under the optimum heated condition (for example, around 38° C.). When the gas mist of the optimum amount is stored in the pressurized living organism bathing cover 80 and the pressurizing means 90, the pressurizing means 90 is pushed to moderately pressurize (around 1.02 to 2.5 air pressure) the pressurized living organism bathing cover 80 for taking the gas mist pressurizing bathing.
As having mentioned in the first embodiment, various shapes of the pressurized living organism bathing covers 80 maybe employed, since they are applied to many parts of the living organism, providing that in the present embodiment, the pressurized living organism bathing cover 80 must have a site easily pressurized by the pressuring means 90. For example, when manually pressurizing the pressuring means 90, the pressuring means 90 must have such a size grasped by man's both hands, and the pressurized living organism bathing cover 80 pressurized with the pressuring means 90 is also limited in size, accordingly. Further, even if, in a case of pressurizing with such as a driving device, the pressuring means 90 and also a means pressurizing this means are desirably compact not to actually keep wide places, therefore, the present embodiment is applicable to the pressurized living organism bathing cover 80 which is comparatively compact (covering local parts of the living organism).
Incidentally, although having not shown here, preferably there is provided an exhaust port for exhausting the gas mist in the living organism pressurized bathing cover 80 or adjusting pressure.
In the above embodiment, the pressurizing means 90 is composed of a hollow gas storage 91 communicating to the pressurized living organism bathing cover 80, and any members are sufficient if enabling to conveniently pressurize the pressurized living organism bathing cover 80 such as a member compressing to crash the pressurized living organism bathing cover 80 from an outer periphery.
[Third Embodiment]
As shown in
The electrode 22 supplies an electric charge (-charge is desirable) when exhausting the mist generated by the gas mist generator 30. Thereby, the mist is made charged so that adhesion to a charged material can be heightened. That is, if heightening adhesion to the skin and the mucous membrane of the living organism, an effect of more increasing absorption rate of gas by the pressurized gas mist bathing is further heightened, and if the gas mist contains the above mentioned medicines, penetration into the skin and the mucous membrane can be accelerated.
For carrying out the gas mist pressurized bathing by using the pressurized gas mist bathing system of the present embodiment, at first, the sealed generator main body 31 is opened, and the gas supply means connecting portion 35 and the cover 36 are set to accomplish the gas mist generator 30. Subsequently, the gas supply means 10, the gas mist generator 30, the pressurized living organism bathing cover 50, the control device 60 and so on are connected, respectively. The pressurized living organism bathing cover 50 is fixedly secured to the living organism (herein, the lower extremity) and closed. During this period, the control device 60 controls supply pressure, amount of the liquid, gas or temperature. Further, the control device 60 turns on the power supply device 21 and gives an electric charge to the mist from the electrode 22.
The generated gas mist is discharged from the gas mist outlet 39 into the pressurized living organism bathing cover 50 through the gas mist supply pipe 41. The control device 60 controls each of the means from measuring values of the manometer 71 and the temperature gauge 72 such that the inside of the pressurized living organism bathing cover 50 becomes the optimum pressurized and heated conditions (around 1.02 to 2.5 air pressure and around 38° C.), and under this condition the gas mist pressure bathing is carried out.
Having composed the structure as mentioned above, according to the pressurized gas mist bathing system, in the gas mist generating means, the liquid storage is made displaceable with another liquid storage, whereby attention is given to hygiene as well as cost reduction is realized.
The above references have explained the embodiments of the invention, but are not limited thereto, and so far as not deviating from the subject matter of the invention, various kinds of embodiments are, of course, available.
The present invention relates to the pressurized gas mist bathing system for improving absorption efficiency of gas from the skin or the mucous membrane of the living organism, in which the mist is prepared by pulverizing and dissolving the liquid of oxygen or carbon dioxide and a medicine, or a mixed gas of oxygen and carbon dioxide and the medicine, and the mist is caused to directly contact the skin and mucous membrane of the living organism at pressure of not less than a predetermined value accompanying industrial applicability.
