BATHTUB DEVICE

To provide a bathtub device that allows a bathing person to take a bath for a comparatively long time while inhibiting the bathing person from feeling dizzy.SOLUTION: A bathtub device includes: a water discharge part 8 provided above a bathtub body; a circulation flow passage 4 for communicating a water intake part with the water discharge part; a circulation pump 6 provided in the circulation flow passage; a temperature adjusting part 7 for adjusting a temperature of hot water supplied to the water discharge part; a detection part 22 for detecting a temperature of hot water in the bathtub body; and a control part 16 for controlling the temperature of hot water supplied to the water discharge part. The control unit has a discharged water temperature adjustment mode in which if the temperature of the hot water in the bathtub body is higher than an upper limit temperature in a predetermined temperature range, hot water is discharged from the water discharge part toward the inside of the bathtub body so as to circulate the hot water taken from the water intake part for a predetermined time after start of water discharge from the water discharge part, and after elapse of the predetermined time, the temperature of the hot water discharged from the water discharge part is lowered to within the predetermined temperature range T by the temperature adjusting part 7.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 8 【課題】入浴者がのぼせることを抑制でき、比較的長時間の入浴も可能とできる浴槽装置を提供することを目的としている。【解決手段】本発明の浴槽装置は、浴槽本体の上方に設けられる吐水部８と、取水口部と吐水部とを連通する循環流路４と、循環流路に設けられる循環ポンプ６と、吐水部に供給される湯水の温度を調整する温度調整部７と、浴槽本体内の湯水の温度を検知する検知部２２と、吐水部に供給される湯水の温度を制御する制御部１６と、を備え、制御部は、浴槽本体内の湯水の温度が所定温度範囲の上限温度より高い場合に、吐水部からの吐水を開始してから所定時間の間は、取水口部から取水した湯水を循環させるように吐水部から浴槽本体内に向けて吐水させ、所定時間経過後に、温度調整部７により吐水部から吐水される湯水の温度を所定温度範囲Ｔ内まで低下させる吐水温度調整モードを備える。【選択図】図８
