Patent ID: 8747373

Claim:
A gas mist pressure bath device, for contacting a gas including oxygen, carbon dioxide or a mixed gas of oxygen and carbon dioxide at density higher than a predetermined value to a skin or mucous membrane of a head of a living body, comprising: a gas mist generation device for generating and supplying a gas mist prepared by pulverizing and dissolving the gas and a liquid; a compressed air supply device for supplying compressed air; and a living body mask member having a hood-shape to cover a frontal region, a parietal region, an occipital region, a temporal region, and face of the living body and connected to the gas mist generation device and to the compressed air supply device, the living body mask member having a first sealed layer for sealing the gas mist supplied from the gas mist generation device, a second sealed layer for sealing the compressed air supplied from the compressed air supply device, a window portion being made of transparent or semi-transparent and non-air and non-moisture permeable substance, and being placed only at a position corresponding to eyes for securing a field of view, an aperture at a position corresponding to a nose of the living body for securing breathing of the living body, an adhering portion furnished around the aperture, and adhering to the skin or the mucous membrane of the head of the living body, and the first and the second sealed layers being connected together with the adhering portion, an attaching and detaching opening for the mask member, and a stopper at the attaching and detaching opening to avoid the gas mist from blowing-off into atmosphere, the stopper being formed of a stretchable material to fit a neck of the living body, wherein the gas mist within the first sealed layer is caused to contact the skin or the mucous membrane of the head of the living body by the second sealed layer at a pressure higher than a predetermined value, and the first and the second sealed layer are connected together at a circumferential edge of the window and fixed thereto, and the first and the second sealed layers exist in three sections, between an upper portion of the adhering portion and a lower portion of the circumference edge of the window, between an upper portion of the circumference edge of the window and a part of the stopper, and between a lower portion of the adhering portion and another part of the stopper.
