The implementation of the invention

The proposed sauna simulator belongs to light industry, namely, to the design of infrared sauna simulators designed for individual use, the proposed sauna has one user and accepts all the procedures laid down in its design.

The proposed fan heater relates to light industry, namely, to the design of a salt fan heater intended for individual use.

The proposed group of inventions is illustrated with specific examples of implementation, which, however, are not the only possible, but clearly demonstrate the possibility of achieving the presented sets of essential features of the specified technical result. b

According to the infrared salt sauna-simulator (Fig.1,2), it is intended for individual exercise with the simultaneous use of infrared thermal procedures in an air environment saturated with negative ions.

The individual salt sauna simulator contains a housing 1 consisting of side walls 2, a base 3 and a ceiling 4, which are made of materials reflecting infrared light or are made with a coating made of a material reflecting infrared light. In particular, the housing may be made of metal with a mirrored inner surface or of wood with a metal film reflecting infrared light.

Salt plates 5 are located on the surface of the body in the upper part of the side walls 2 and / or on the ceiling 4 at a distance from them. Moreover, with the aim of intensity and uniformity of saturation of the internal space of the sauna, especially in the area where the respiratory organs of the user are located, plates 5 are located on the air the flow coming from the heat fan 6, while the heat fans in combination with salt plates can be installed several. For example, in the zone on each side, one complex.

To perform physical exercises, inside the building 1 there is a sports simulator 7 or a high stool with power expanders suspended on the side walls for doing exercises with hands. In addition, as a simulator 7, an exercise bike can be used.

To create a thermal effect inside the sauna, the latter is equipped with tubular infrared emitters 8 and / or infrared lamp 9. At the same time, tubular infrared emitters 8 are located to the right and left of the entrance 10 and are equipped with reflective screens 11, and infrared lamps 9 are located under the ceiling 4. B In a preferred embodiment, the infrared lamps 9 are evenly arranged under the ceiling along the side walls, and the infrared tube emitters 8 are made with a length equal to the width of the side walls.

The device infrared salt sauna simulator operates as follows.

The user using the control system (not shown in the drawings) turns on the infrared emitters, namely those located inside the housing under ceiling 4 infrared lamps 9 and along the walls - tubular infrared emitters 8, if necessary - a lighting lamp, the functions of which are successfully performed by ceiling infrared lamps 9. After this, the user, sitting on a sports simulator 7, for example, an exercise bike, begins to perform physical exercises in accordance with a given program.

In the initial period, the internal space and body of the user begin to warm up with the help of tubular infrared emitters 8 and infrared lamps 9 located under the ceiling 4, since they immediately, upon switching on, reach their operating power. At the same time, tubular infrared emitters 8 gradually reach their design operating power and are connected to the user's heating along its entire length. Thus, they carry out a thermal effect on the user's body, while heating is carried out:

- infrared lamps 9, which emit heat in the near infrared region,

- tubular infrared emitters 8, which radiate heat in the far infrared region.

Simultaneously with this process, the heat fans 6 are turned on for the purpose of intensive circulation or movement of the air with the heat fan 6, warm air inside the housing 1 and physical exercises, while ensuring a uniform and deep heating of the user, which ultimately leads to profuse sweat, what is significant in this case is that the circulation of the heat flux inside the sauna is carried out using salt plates installed in the path of the heat flux emanating from the heat x fans, and saturating the air with negative ions environment, enhancing the process of sweating and positive properties due to this phenomenon. Thus, at the same time as warming up and performing physical exercises on the simulator, the user is able to pass through himself an air environment saturated with negative ions, strengthening his immune system. It is well known that rock salt has healing properties, in numerous caves and grottoes it was found that salt ionizes the air and prevents the growth of pathogenic bacteria. Discovering useful features rock salt, it began to be used to treat diseases of various kinds. When developing the first therapeutic methods, patients were asked to descend into special salt mines, later artificial salt rooms began to be created in the conditions of clinics. Today salt rooms are equipped in expensive SPA salons and health centers, and a passive salt treatment technique has also appeared - using a salt lamp.

Thus, the use of salt plates in a sauna simulator made it possible to carry out physical exercises in a heated ambient air of a sauna saturated with negatively charged ions, increasing the intensity of perspiration of the user during physical exercises and heat exposure, significantly increasing the degree of impact on his biologically active points .

As an example, we consider it necessary to note that the air in the sauna, equipped with elements of Himalayan salt, saturates the body of the user who is in it with barium and sodium useful for him. Thanks to salt sources in the human body, harmful molecular bonds in the form of salt deposits and sclerosis are destroyed. Himalayan salt stabilizes pressure, relieves depressive mood, giving a positive psychological mood.

According to the proposed salt fan heater (Fig.3,4), it is designed to saturate the air with negative ions and heat this medium in order to improve the ecology of the human environment, which has a restorative effect on the human body.

According to a utility model, the salt fan heater according to the invention comprises a base 12 with a fan heater 6 of conventional construction located on it.

At the outlet of the fan heater, salt plates 5 are located on the path of the heat air flow with the possibility of exposure to them by the heat air flow and enrichment of the heated air with salt ions. Moreover, the said plates 5 are located on the holder 13, connected with the base 12 with the possibility of changing the position of the salt plates 5 in space. In addition, in one embodiment, the fan heater 6 can be made adjustable in thermal power and / or speed in order to changes in the intensity of the process of sublimation of trace elements from salt plates. Said salt plates are made of rock salt, in particular with a density of 1.9-2.3 g / cm and a size of 15x15 cm and a thickness of 5-9 mm.

Moreover, with the aim of intensity and uniformity of saturation of the internal space, especially in the area where the respiratory organs of the user are located, the plates 5 are located on the path of the air heat flow coming from the heat fan 6 with the possibility of changing their position, for which heat fans in a room with salt plates can be installed several, and the plates 5 themselves are arranged to change position in space.

Salt fan heater operates as follows.

Using a control system (not shown in the drawings), the user switches on the heat fan 6 to heat, intensively circulate or move the air. In the path of the heat air stream coming from the heat fan 6, salt plates 5 are located on the holder 13. The holder 13 is connected to the base via a means 14 for changing the position of the salt plates 5 in space, for example, a controlled hinge.

The saturation of the surrounding air with salt ions occurs due to the sublimation of trace elements and negative ions from the surface of the plates made of rock salt, in particular with a density of 1.9-2.3 g / cm ³ . It is well known that rock salt has healing properties, in numerous caves and grottoes it was found that salt ionizes the air and prevents the growth of pathogenic bacteria. Having discovered the useful properties of rock salt, they began to use it for the prevention of diseases of various nature. When developing the first therapeutic methods, patients were asked to descend into special salt mines, later artificial salt rooms began to be created in the conditions of clinics. Today salt rooms are equipped in expensive SPA salons and health centers, and a passive salt treatment technique has also appeared - using a salt lamp.

Thus, the use of a salt fan heater allows the formation of an environmentally friendly and saturated with salt ions air environment at home. The use of salt plates from Himalayan salt allows saturate the air environment with useful microelements and substances inside it, namely barium and sodium. Thanks to the use of salt sources during the life of a person in such an environment, harmful molecular bonds are destroyed in his body, salt deposits and the manifestation of sclerosis are reduced, relieves fatigue and irritability, has a preventive effect on the lungs and facilitates breathing. Himalayan salt stabilizes pressure, relieves depressive mood, giving a positive psychological mood.

The proposed technical solutions can be widely used in sports, wellness and preventive practice.
