PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To simplify construction work by eliminating piping construction for discharging liquid that cannot be atomized regarding a liquid atomizing apparatus and a sauna apparatus using the liquid atomizing apparatus.SOLUTION: The liquid atomizing apparatus includes a heat exchanger 7 and a fan motor 8 provided in an air duct that connects a suction port 4 to an exhaust port 5 a liquid atomizing means 9 provided between the fan motor 8 and the exhaust port 5 and a control means for controlling the liquid atomizing means, the heat exchanger 7 and the fan motor 8. The liquid atomizing means 9 includes a rotating means 13 and a liquid supply means for supplying water to the rotating means 13. The fan motor 8 includes a rotation speed detecting means for detecting the rotation number of the motor. The control means includes a control part for controlling water supply to the rotating means 13 and the operation of the rotating means 13, heat exchanger 7 and fan motor 8. The control part stops water supply to the rotating means 13 and the operation of the rotating means 13, heat exchanger 7 and fan motor 8 when determining water level abnormality with a signal from the rotation number detecting means.COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT【課題】本発明は、液体微細化装置とそれを用いたサウナ装置に関するもので、微細化できなかった液体の排出のための配管施工を解消し、施工工事を簡単にする。【解決手段】吸込口4と排気口5を結ぶ風路に設けた熱交換器7およびファンモータ8と、このファンモータ8と排気口5間に設けた液体微細化手段9と、この液体微細化手段と熱交換器7およびファンモータ8を制御する制御手段を備え、液体微細化手段9は、回転手段13と、回転手段13に水を供給する液体供給手段とを備え、ファンモータ8はモータの回転数を検知する回転数検知手段を有し、前記制御手段は、回転手段13への水供給と回転手段13と熱交換器7およびファンモータ8の運転とを制御する制御部を備え、この制御部は、回転数検知手段からの信号により水位異常と判断した場合、回転手段13への水供給と、回転手段13と、熱交換器7およびファンモータ8の運転とを停止する。【選択図】図3
