Patent ID: 8057413

Claim:
A foot water-spouting device comprising: a foot-front water spouting section configured to spout water toward a top front area of a user's foot; a water-spouting section direction moving mechanism configured to move the direction of water spouting of the foot-front water spouting section along a longitudinal direction of the top-front area of the user's foot; and a control section for controlling the water-spouting section direction moving mechanism; wherein said foot-front water spouting section has a plurality of water-spouting nozzles arranged side-by-side in the foot width direction for each of the right and left foot and said foot-front water-spouting section is configured to continuously spout water with a spouting first dimension causing only a part of the foot in a longitudinal direction to receive spouted water while the combined spouting width of the side-by-side nozzles extends across the width of the foot in a second dimension that is greater than said first dimension; said water-spouting section direction moving mechanism being configured so as to concurrently move the plurality of side-by-side water-spouting nozzles in the longitudinal foot direction, whereby the spouted water across the width of the foot is moved along a longitudinal direction of the foot; and said control section being configured to control the water-spouting section direction moving mechanism such that water spouted from the plurality of the water-spouting nozzles is sequentially passed over a longitudinal dimension of the foot ranging from a toe side to an ankle side, thereby only intermittently spouting water onto different top-foot areas.
