Patent ID: 8657861

Claim:
A gas mist pressure bath device for contacting oxygen, carbon dioxide or a mixed gas of oxygen and carbon dioxide with a skin or a mucous membrane of a living-body, comprising: a gas mist generating device for generating gas mist by contacting the oxygen, the carbon dioxide or the mixed gas of oxygen and carbon dioxide, with fine liquid drops and for supplying the gas mist; a living-body cover member having a bag shape for covering the skin or the mucous membrane of the living-body and sealing the gas mist from the gas mist generating device therein, the living-body cover member including an opening portion and a plurality of ribs integrally formed at an end of the living-body cover member, the end being opposite to the opening portion and the living-body being inserted into the living-body cover member from the opening portion; and a pressurizing ring for pressurizing the gas mist within the living-body cover member, the pressurizing ring having a hole portion and being made of an elastic member, wherein, when a gas mist pressure bathing is performed, after the gas mist is supplied from the gas mist generating device to the living-body cover member, the end of the living-body cover member passes into the hole portion of the pressurizing ring and the pressurizing ring slides along the plurality of ribs from the end toward the opening portion of the living-body cover member such that a capacity of the living-body cover member is reduced to pressurize an inside of the living-body cover member, and the gas mist sealed within the living-body cover member contacts with the skin or the mucous membrane of the living body at a predetermined pressure; wherein the gas mist generating device has a gas mist supply pipe for supplying the gas mist into the living-body cover member and the gas mist supply pipe is inserted through the opening portion together with the living-body.
