In the present embodiment, the lighting device 70 may be disposed in the compartment 1.

The room 10 is provided with an entrance 19 through which a user enters and exits. In the present embodiment, the doorway 19 is disposed on the long side of the bay 1. That is, the doorway 19 is provided on the negative Y-axis direction side of the room 10 and in the center of the room 10 in the X-axis direction. In the present embodiment, the door of the doorway 19 is not shown, but a door for opening and closing the doorway 19 may be provided.

Further, room 10 is formed with an indoor space R in which a user sleeps. Since the long bed 30 is disposed in the room 10, the indoor space R is long in the X-axis direction according to the size of the bed 30. Room 10 is a rectangular parallelepiped case formed to have a size allowing a user to sleep. In the present embodiment, the outer dimension of the room 10, that is, the length in the Y axis direction × the length in the X axis direction × the length in the Z axis direction is 1100 (mm) or less × 2100 (mm) or less × 1950 (mm) or less.

The room 10 houses the bed 30, the duct 20, the operation device 40, the airflow generation device 50, the functional component introduction device 60, the lighting device 70, the control device 90, and the power supply unit 80.

Fig. 3 is a diagram showing the indoor space R of the compartment 1 according to the embodiment.

As shown in fig. 1 to 3, when the indoor space R of the room 10 is viewed from the overhead in the Z-axis negative direction, the indoor space R includes a first space R1 for the user to sleep, a second space R2 between the bed 30 and the long side on the access 19 side of the room 10, and a third space R3 between the bed 30 and the long side on the access 19 side of the room 10 and located below the feet of the user when sleeping in the bed 30. The first space R1 corresponds to the upper surface of the bed, the second space R2 is indicated by diagonal hatching, and the third space R3 is a region surrounded by a wall portion. The second space R2 and the third space R3 are examples of predetermined spaces as a part of the indoor space R.

The second space R2 and the third space R3 are located on the Y-axis negative direction side with respect to the first space R1. The third space R3 is located on the X-axis negative direction side with respect to the second space R2 and is located under the feet of the user when sleeping in the bed 30. The operation device 40, the bed 30, and the like are disposed in the first space R1, the floor 11b of the room 10 is disposed in the second space R2, and the airflow generation device 50, the functional component introduction device 60, the illumination device 70, the audio device 100, and the like are disposed in the third space R3.

Further, a storage portion 11g for storing articles is disposed in the third space R3. The housing 11g is located on the opposite side of the operating device 40 with respect to the center of the indoor space R in the longitudinal direction. Specifically, the housing portion 11g is disposed on the opposite side of the second operation portion 40b with respect to the center of the indoor space R in the longitudinal direction. In the present embodiment, the housing portion 11g is disposed on the Z-axis negative direction side of the airflow generation device 50 and the functional component introduction device 60 disposed in the third space R3.

The room 10 includes a plurality of frames 11, a plurality of casters 12, a plurality of wall portions, a door 11e, and a ceiling 13.

The plurality of frames 11 include a frame-shaped base 11a, a floor 11b, a plurality of columns 11c, and an upper frame 11d.

The base 11a is a rectangular frame, and is disposed vertically below the room 10 (in the Z-axis negative direction) in a posture substantially parallel to the XY plane. A plurality of casters 12 corresponding at least to the respective corner portions in a one-to-one manner are provided on the Z-axis negative direction side end surface of the base 11 a. Therefore, the base 11a is disposed so as to face the floor surface via the caster 12. The caster 12 can rotate the wheel when the base 11a, i.e., the room 10, moves relative to the floor, or can be locked so that the wheel does not rotate.

The base 11a is connected to a plurality of keels 11a1. A floor 11b is provided on the base 11a and the plurality of keels 11a1. The floor 11b is elongated in the X-axis direction. The floor 11b is located on the Y-axis negative direction side of the bed 30, between the bed 30 and the long side of the room 10 on the entrance 19 side of the room 10, and is disposed above the base 11a and the plurality of keels 11a1 in the second space R2.

The plurality of posts 11c are formed in an elongated shape extending in the Z-axis direction from each corner of the base 11a, and support the upper frame 11d. Further, some of the plurality of columns 11c and the plurality of wall portions are provided so as to be adjacent to each other to form the third space R3. Specifically, the column 11c forming a part of the third space R3 is constituted by at least a first column 11c1, a second column 11c2, and a third column 11c 3. The first column 11c1 is disposed at a corner portion which is an end portion of the base 11a in the X-axis negative direction and is an end portion of the base in the Y-axis negative direction. The second column 11c2 is adjacent to the first column 11c1 and is disposed in the positive X-axis direction with respect to the first column 11c 1. The third column 11c3 is disposed adjacent to the first column 11c1, and at a position closer to the positive Y-axis direction than the first column 11c 1.

The plurality of wall portions are partition walls for defining the indoor space R, and are disposed between two adjacent columns 11c of the plurality of columns 11 c. Some of the plurality of wall portions are provided so as to surround the airflow generating device 50, the functional component introducing device 60, and the like, in order to define the third space R3. In fig. 1, a first wall portion 11f1 between the first column 11c1 and the second column 11c2, a second wall portion 11f2 between the first column 11c1 and the third column 11c3, and a third wall portion 11f3 between the second space R2 and the third space R3 extending from the second column 11c2 in the Y-axis positive direction are shown, and the other wall portions are appropriately omitted from illustration.

The third wall portion 11f3, which is a part of the plurality of wall portions, is disposed between the lighting device 70 and the head side of the user when the user is sleeping in the bed 30 so that an opening 11h through which light emitted from the lighting device 70 passes is formed below the foot when the user is sleeping in the bed 30. The third wall portion 11f3 is substantially parallel to the YZ plane, and is disposed so that the light emitted from the lighting device 70 is not directly irradiated to the head of the user when the user is sleeping in the bed 30. The first wall portion 11f1, which is a wall portion different from the third wall portion 11f3, of the plurality of wall portions is disposed on the Y-axis negative direction side of the illumination device 70, and constitutes a part of the long side of the room as an outer wall (housing) of the room. The second wall portion 11f2, which is a wall portion different from the first wall portion 11f1 and the third wall portion 11f3, of the plurality of wall portions is disposed on the X-axis negative direction side of the illumination device 70, and constitutes a part of the short side of the room as an outer wall (housing) of the room. Thus, the opening 11h is formed by the second wall portion 11f2 and the third wall portion 11f 3.

The door 11e is accessible to the functional component introducing device 60 and disposed on the indoor space R side or the external space side of the room 10. In the present embodiment, the door 11e is disposed on the side of the external space and on the side of the Y-axis negative direction. When the door 11e is disposed on the indoor space R side, it may be formed on a wall portion facing the first space R1 side or a wall portion facing the second space R2 side with respect to the functional component introducing device 60.

The upper frame 11d is a rectangular frame body, and is positioned vertically above the room 10 (in the positive Z-axis direction) in a posture substantially parallel to the XY plane. The upper frame 11d corresponds to the base 11a and is supported by a plurality of columns 11 c. In the present embodiment, 2 upper frames 11d are provided. A part of the duct 20 is arranged between the 2 upper frames 11d.

A ceiling 13 is provided on the upper frame 11d. The ceiling 13 is provided with a duct 20 and a blow-out port 20a as an opening of the duct 20. The duct 20 guides the air sucked from the suction port 20b to the discharge port 20a. That is, the duct 20 connects the air outlet 20a and the air inlet 20b, thereby forming a flow path through which air flows.

The air outlet 20a blows out air that has been sucked in from the air inlet 20b and passed through the duct 20. The air outlet 20a is disposed on the upper half or the lower half of the user when sleeping in the bed 30. In the present embodiment, the air outlet 20a is attached to the ceiling 13 facing the bed 30 and is disposed at a position facing the lower body side of the user when sleeping in the bed 30.

The air outlet 20a is disposed away from the air inlet 20b and the airflow generating device 50. The wall portion of the room 10 in which the discharge port 20a is arranged (i.e., the ceiling 13) is different from the wall portion of the room 10 in which the suction port 20b is arranged. In the present embodiment, the outlet 20a is disposed at a position higher than the inlet 20b. In this way, by separating the air outlet 20a and the air inlet 20b as far as possible, the sound and light entering from the air inlet 20b are not transmitted to the air outlet 20a.

Further, a light absorbing material is provided between the flow paths from the air outlet 20a to the air inlet 20b. In the present embodiment, the light absorbing material is provided inside the duct 20. That is, the duct 20 is configured such that light incident from the inlet 20b side of the duct 20 is emitted from the outlet 20a without being reflected inside the duct 20. For example, the inside of the duct 20 may be blackened, a material having low light reflectance may be disposed inside the duct 20, or a material having low light reflectance may be used for the duct 20. Such light absorbing materials may be provided in the outlet port 20a, the inlet port 20b, and the like.

The suction port 20b is disposed under the feet of the user when sleeping in the bed 30. Further, suction port 20b is provided in a wall outside room 10 so as to face the space outside room 10. Accordingly, the suction port 20b can suck air from the space outside the room 10. In the present embodiment, the suction port 20b is disposed to face the airflow generation device 50 so as to communicate the external space with the third space R3. The suction port 20b of the present embodiment is disposed between the first column 11c1 and the second column 11c2 in the wall portion of the room 10. The suction port 20b is disposed further toward the ceiling 13 than the bed 30 so as to be away from the head of the user.

The bed 30 is a tool for a user to sit and sleep, is housed in the compartment 1, and is elongated in the X-axis direction. The bed 30 is elongated in the X-axis direction in the first space R1. The bed 30 of the present embodiment is supported by the plurality of columns 11c, but may be placed on the base 11a and the plurality of keels 11a1.

The bed 30 is set such that the head of the user is positioned on the positive X-axis direction side and the foot is positioned on the negative X-axis direction side. Therefore, the operation device 40 is disposed on the positive X-axis direction side of the bed 30.

The operation device 40 is an operation input device that can operate the acoustic device 100, the airflow generation device 50, the functional component introduction device 60, and the illumination device 70 collectively or individually by user operation. The operation device 40 includes a first operation unit 40a disposed in the outdoor (external) space of the compartment 1 and a second operation unit 40b disposed in the indoor space R of the compartment 1.

The first operation unit 40a is a setting panel for the control device 90 to automatically control the acoustic device 100, the airflow generating device 50, the functional component introducing device 60, and the lighting device 70 collectively or individually. The first operation unit 40a is an operation panel such as a liquid crystal panel or an organic EL display.

The second operation unit 40b is an operation switch for the control device 90 to start automatic control or output adjustment of the acoustic apparatus 100, the airflow generation device 50, the functional component introduction device 60, and the illumination device 70. The second operation unit 40b does not have an operation panel for emitting light as in the first operation unit 40 a.

For example, when the user inputs an instruction by operating the operation device 40, the airflow generation device 50 turns ON (ON) the power supply in response to the instruction acquired from the operation device 40 to turn the airflow generation device 50 from the OFF state to the ON state. Thus, by driving the airflow generating device 50, the air in the external space can be introduced into the indoor space R of the room 10.

In addition, when the user inputs an instruction by operating the operation device 40, the illumination device 70 turns the power ON in response to the instruction acquired from the operation device 40 to turn the illumination device 70 from the OFF state to the ON state. Thereby, the lighting device 70 is turned on, whereby the indoor space R can be illuminated.

The airflow generating device 50 is a blower that is disposed in the room 10 and generates an airflow in the indoor space R by sucking air from an intake port 20b provided in the room 10 and blowing air from an outlet port 20a provided in the indoor space R. The airflow generation device 50 is driven to introduce air of the external space, thereby being capable of adjusting air quality such as temperature and humidity of the air of the indoor space R.

The airflow generation device 50 is disposed under the feet of the user when sleeping in the bed 30. Further, the airflow generating device 50 is disposed in the flow path of the duct 20. In the present embodiment, the airflow generating device 50 is disposed at a height equal to the height of the suction port 20b so as to face the suction port 20b and at a position closer to the ceiling 13 than the bed 30 so as to be away from the head of the user in the third space R3.

Thus, the airflow generation device 50 is driven in a state of being disposed on the suction port 20b side of the duct 20, and can generate an airflow from the suction port 20b toward the discharge port 20a. Further, since the airflow generation device 50 can blow air from the air outlet 20a, it is possible to increase the air blowing toward the user who is sleeping on the bed 30 or to prevent the air from blowing toward the user. The output of such an air flow generating device 50 can be adjusted by the operating device 40.

The functional component introducing device 60 is disposed in the room 10, and can introduce a functional component into the air blown out from the air outlet 20a to adjust the air quality of the indoor space R. The functional component introducing device 60 is an ion generating device that generates sterilizing ions, an aromatic device that carries an aromatic agent, a deodorizer that carries a deodorant, or the like. Here, the functional component is a sterilization ion amount (fine particles) using fine particle ions or the like, a fragrance component amount such as a fragrance or a deodorant, or the like.

The functional component introducing device 60 is disposed under the feet of the user when the user is sleeping in the bed 30. The functional component introducing device 60 is disposed on the flow path in the duct 20. In the present embodiment, the functional component introducing device 60 is disposed on the downstream side (the side of the air outlet 20 a) of the airflow generating device 50 and is disposed on the ceiling 13 side of the airflow generating device 50 so as to be away from the head of the user.

The functional component introducing device 60 can be driven by the airflow generating device 50 to cause the air flowing from the suction port 20b toward the discharge port 20a to contain the functional component. That is, the functional component is carried by the airflow from the suction port 20b toward the discharge port 20a, and is thus introduced into the indoor space R. This makes it possible to purify the air in the indoor space R or to fill the indoor space with a pleasant fragrance. The output of the functional component amount of the functional component introducing means 60 can be adjusted by the operation means 40.

In the present embodiment, the airflow generation device 50 and the functional component introduction device 60 are located on the Z-axis negative direction side (lower side) of the ceiling 13, but the present invention is not limited to this. Only the airflow generation device 50 may be located on the Z-axis negative direction side of the ceiling 13. In the present embodiment, the airflow generating device 50 and the functional component introducing device 60 are disposed under the feet of the user when sleeping in the bed 30, but the present invention is not limited thereto. Only the airflow generating device 50 may be disposed under the feet of the user when sleeping in the bed 30. In these cases, the functional component introducing device 60 may be disposed above the ceiling 13 or may be disposed near the outlet 20a of the duct 20.

The lighting device 70 is a lighting fixture capable of illuminating the indoor space R. The lighting device 70 has a dimming control function and a color modulation control function. Specifically, the illumination device 70 changes the brightness (brightness) and the light color (color temperature or color) of the emitted light. The brightness and the light color of such a lighting device 70 can be adjusted by the operating device 40.

The lighting device 70 is disposed under the feet of the user when sleeping in the bed 30, that is, in the third space R3. In the present embodiment, one or more illumination devices 70 are disposed in the housing portion 11g in the third space R3.

The configuration of the lighting device 70 is configured to satisfy the following condition.

A straight line V indicated by a broken line connecting the bed 30-side end edge of the third wall portion 11f3 (the Y-axis positive-direction end edge of the third wall portion 11f 3) and the lighting device 70 does not intersect with the head-side short side (the X-axis positive-direction end edge) of the bed 30 when the user is sleeping in the bed 30 on the bed 30. When the distance in the longitudinal direction of the indoor space R of the compartment 1 is X, the distance in the short-side direction of the indoor space R of the compartment 1 is Y, the distance in the direction parallel to the longitudinal direction among the distances from the lighting device 70 to the wall portion (second wall portion 11f 2) of the compartment 1 is s, the distance in the direction parallel to the short-side direction among the distances from the lighting device 70 to the wall portion (first wall portion 11f 1) of the compartment 1 is t, the distance between the lighting device 70 and the wall portion is a, and the distance from the opening surface of the opening 11h to the lighting device 70 is b, the distance b satisfies the relationship of equation (1).

Here, the coefficient 0.7 is a value calculated for the distance X so that the distance H from the short side of the underside of the foot of the user of the bed 30 when sleeping in the bed 30 to the intersection of the long side of the bed 30 and the straight line V is not less than 150 (cm) when the length allowing the user to sleep is 200 (cm) and the minimum height is 150 (cm).

The distance b also satisfies the relationship of expression (2).

Here, the coefficient 1.4 is a value calculated for the distance X so that the distance H' from the center of the short side of the underside of the foot of the user of the bed 30 when sleeping in the bed 30 to the straight line V is not less than 150 (cm) when the length allowing the user to sleep is 200 (cm) and the minimum height is 150 (cm).

In the present embodiment, the distance X is 1900 (mm) to 2100 (mm).

As shown in fig. 4, part or all of the lighting device 70 is present on the top surface side of the upper surface of the bed 30. Fig. 4 is a side view of the lighting device 70 and the bed 30 of the compartment 1 according to the embodiment when viewed from the doorway 19 side.

The illumination device 70 is formed in a long bar shape along the Z-axis direction. The longitudinal direction of the lighting device 70 is substantially orthogonal to the upper surface of the bed 30. That is, the longitudinal direction (Z-axis direction) of the illumination device 70 is substantially orthogonal to the upper surface (XY-plane on the positive Z-axis direction side) of the bed 30.

In addition, the illumination device 70 can be switched between the awake mode and the sleep mode. The mode switching control of the illumination device 70 is performed by the control device 90 that obtains an instruction of the user's operation input acquired by the operation device 40.

The awake mode is a mode having an effect of prompting the user to be awake. It is known that the high color temperature light has a physiological waking effect more than the low color temperature light, and thus, when the illumination device 70 performs the waking mode according to the instruction of the control device 90, the user can wake up comfortably by illuminating with the high color temperature light in the waking mode. In particular, in the awake mode, the user is comfortably woken up by the illumination of the one or more illumination devices 70 in a linked manner.

The sleep mode is a mode having an effect of promoting drowsiness of the user. Since it is known that the low color temperature light has an effect of smoothly promoting sleep, when the lighting device 70 performs the sleep mode in response to an instruction from the control device 90, the user can sleep by lighting with the low color temperature light in the sleep mode.

Further, it is known that the lighting device 70 has an effect of promoting drowsiness of the user by alternately repeating the reduction and increase of the output of light, and thus the lighting device 70 executes the awake mode in accordance with an instruction from the control device 90, thereby making it possible to bring the user to sleep by alternately repeating the reduction and increase of the output of the emitted light in the awake mode to vary the brightness of the light.

In the present embodiment, the other lighting device 70a of the one or more lighting devices 70 disposed in the room 10 is provided on the ceiling 13 with respect to the lighting device 70 disposed in the third space R3. The other lighting device 70a is disposed vertically above the upper body of the user when the user is sleeping in the bed 30. The other illumination device 70a may have the same function as the illumination device 70 described above, or may be only a lighting fixture for illuminating the indoor space R brightly. Further, the other lighting device 70a may not be provided in the compartment 1, and is not an essential component of the compartment 1.

The acoustic apparatus 100 is, for example, an audio playback apparatus capable of providing music having a sleep effect or providing music having a wakefulness effect by playing back music. The acoustic apparatus 100 is housed in the room 10 and is disposed in, for example, an indoor space R. In the acoustic apparatus 100, the user can change the music played in the indoor space R or adjust the volume by operating the operation device 40.

The control device 90 can automatically control the acoustic apparatus 100, the airflow generating device 50, the functional component introducing device 60, and the lighting device 70 disposed in the room 10 in a unified manner or individually.

Specifically, the control device 90 acquires an instruction input by the user by operating the operation device 40, drives the acoustic device 100, the airflow generation device 50, and the functional component introduction device 60 in accordance with the acquired instruction, controls the output sound (volume, sound, and the like) of the acoustic device 100, and controls the output of the airflow generation device 50 and the functional component introduction device 60.

The control device 90 can control the brightness (brightness) and the color (color temperature or color) of the light emitted from the illumination device 70. The control device 90 can control switching between the awake mode and the sleep mode of the illumination device 70.

The power supply unit 80 controls the lighting system by supplying power to the lighting device 70, and controls the output by supplying power to the airflow generation device 50 and the functional component introduction device 60. That is, the power supply section 80 generates drive power for driving the illumination device 70, the airflow generation device 50, and the functional component introduction device 60, and supplies the drive power to the illumination device 70, the airflow generation device 50, and the functional component introduction device 60, respectively.

< Effect >

Next, the operation and effect of the compartment 1 of the present embodiment will be described.

As described above, the compartment 1 of the present embodiment forms the indoor space R surrounded by the wall portions on at least four sides and the top surface, and includes: an elongated bed 30 housed in the compartment 1; a lighting device 70 disposed under the feet of the user when the user is sleeping in the bed 30; and wall portions (third wall portions 11f3 and the like) disposed between the lighting device 70 and the head side of the user when sleeping in the bed 30 so as to form an opening 11h through which light emitted by the lighting device 70 passes, on the lower side of the foot of the user when sleeping in the bed 30. Further, a straight line V connecting the end edge of the wall portion disposed between the lighting device 70 and the head side of the user on the bed 30 side and the lighting device 70 does not intersect with the short side of the bed 30 on the head side when the user is sleeping in the bed 30 on the bed 30.

Thus, even if the lighting device 70 emits light, the light is blocked by the wall portion, and therefore, the light emitted from the lighting device 70 can be made difficult to directly reach the head of the user. This also suppresses direct irradiation of the light of the illumination device 70 to the eyes of the user, and thus the user can relax.

Further, since light can be directly irradiated on the bed 30 to a position below the feet of the user with respect to the straight line V connecting the end edge of the wall portion on the bed 30 side with the lighting device 70, a constant illuminance of the indoor space R of the compartment 1 can be ensured.

Thus, in this compartment 1, the user can relax in the indoor space R, and safety can be ensured when the user goes in and out.

The compartment 1 of the present embodiment is formed with an elongated indoor space R surrounded by walls on at least four sides and a ceiling surface, and includes: an elongated bed 30 housed in the compartment 1; a lighting device 70 disposed under the feet of the user when the user is sleeping in the bed 30; and a wall portion disposed between the lighting device 70 and the head side of the user when the user is sleeping in the bed 30 so that an opening 11h through which light emitted by the lighting device 70 passes is formed below the feet of the user when sleeping in the bed 30. The distance b satisfies the relationship of equation (3) when X represents the distance in the longitudinal direction of the indoor space R of the compartment 1, Y represents the distance in the short-side direction of the indoor space R of the compartment 1, s represents the distance in the direction parallel to the longitudinal direction among the distances from the lighting device 70 to the wall of the compartment 1, t represents the distance in the direction parallel to the short-side direction among the distances from the lighting device 70 to the wall of the compartment 1, a represents the distance between the wall disposed between the lighting device 70 and the head side of the user and the lighting device 70, and b represents the distance from the opening surface of the opening 11h to the lighting device 70.

The same effects as described above are exhibited in the compartment 1.

In the compartment 1 of the present embodiment, the indoor space R is elongated. When the distance in the longitudinal direction of the indoor space R of the compartment 1 is X, the distance in the short-side direction of the indoor space R of the compartment 1 is Y, the distance in the direction parallel to the longitudinal direction among the distances from the lighting device 70 to the wall portion is s, the distance in the direction parallel to the short-side direction among the distances from the lighting device 70 to the wall portion is t, the distance between the lighting device 70 and the wall portion is a, and the distance from the opening surface of the opening 11h to the lighting device 70 is b, the distance b satisfies the relationship of equation (4).

This allows the user who is sleeping in the bed 30 to be directly illuminated from the underside of the foot, and the user to be indirectly illuminated from the head. Therefore, a constant illuminance can be ensured in the indoor space R.

In the compartment 1 of the present embodiment, a part or all of the lighting device 70 is present on the top surface side of the upper surface of the bed 30.

Accordingly, since the upper surface of the bed 30 can be indirectly and directly illuminated, a constant illuminance can be ensured in the indoor space R. Further, even if the illumination device 70 emits light, the light is blocked by the wall portion, so that it is possible to make it difficult for the light emitted from the illumination device 70 to directly reach the head of the user. Thus, in this compartment 1, the user can be more relaxed in the indoor space R, and safety can be further ensured when the user goes in and out.

In the compartment 1 of the present embodiment, the lighting device 70 is formed in a long bar shape. The longitudinal direction of the lighting device 70 is substantially perpendicular to the upper surface of the bed 30.

For example, a lighting fixture such as a point light source can illuminate only a part of an indoor space, and the indoor space becomes dark when the lighting fixture enters or exits the indoor space, which may cause a safety concern.

However, in the present embodiment, since the entire indoor space R can be illuminated, a constant illuminance can be ensured in the indoor space R.

In addition, the occupied volume of the lighting device 70 in the indoor space R is not easily increased. Thus, the use space of the user in the compartment 1 can be ensured.

In the compartment 1 of the present embodiment, the distance X is 1900 (mm) to 2100 (mm).

This can ensure a user's use space in the indoor space R and suppress the size of the compartment 1 from becoming larger to such an extent that the user does not feel oppressed.

In addition, in the compartment 1 of the present embodiment, the lighting device 70 can be lit in a sleep mode having an effect of promoting drowsiness of the user.

Thereby, the user can easily sleep on the bed 30, and thus the user can reduce drowsiness or eliminate fatigue.

In the compartment 1 of the present embodiment, the lighting device 70 can be turned on in an awake mode having an effect of prompting the user to be awake.

This enables the user to be comfortably awake while sleeping.

In addition, in the compartment 1 of the present embodiment, one or more lighting devices 70 are disposed. In the awake mode, one or more illumination devices 70 perform illumination in a linked manner.

This makes it possible to make the user feel more comfortable while sleeping.

In addition, in the compartment 1 of the present embodiment, at least one of the acoustic apparatus 100, the airflow generation apparatus 50, and the functional component introduction apparatus 60 is disposed. Further, the compartment 1 includes: a control device 90 for controlling the acoustic device 100, the airflow generation device 50, and the functional component introduction device 60; and an operation device 40 capable of operating the acoustic device 100, the airflow generation device 50, and the functional component introduction device 60.

Accordingly, at least one of the acoustic device 100, the airflow generation device 50, and the functional component introduction device 60 mounted in the compartment 1 can be driven and controlled, and thus the user can comfortably pass through the indoor space R.

In addition, the compartment 1 of the present embodiment is formed with an entrance 19 through which a user enters and exits. A predetermined space is formed between the bed 30 and the long side of the compartment 1 on the side of the doorway 19, which is a part of the indoor space R.

Accordingly, a predetermined space is formed between the bed 30 and the long side of the room 10 on the doorway 19 side, and a space around the user when sleeping on the bed 30 can be secured accordingly. Therefore, the user is less likely to feel oppressive even in the indoor space R.

In addition, a space for a user to sit on the bed 30 or to place a slipper or the like in a predetermined space when sleeping on the bed 30 can be secured. Therefore, the convenience of the user using the compartment 1 is not easily impaired.

In the compartment 1 of the present embodiment, a storage portion 11g for storing articles is disposed in a predetermined space.

Thus, the use space of the user can be secured by using the empty space of the indoor space R as the housing portion 11g without separately providing a housing space in the indoor space R. Therefore, the user is less likely to feel oppressive even in the indoor space R.

In the compartment 1 of the present embodiment, the housing portion 11g is located on the opposite side of the operating device 40 with respect to the center of the indoor space R in the longitudinal direction.

Thus, the use space of the user in the indoor space R can be secured by using the vacant space below the feet of the user when sleeping on the bed 30. Therefore, the user is less likely to feel oppressive even in the indoor space R.

In the compartment 1 of the present embodiment, the entrance 19 is disposed on the long side of the compartment 1.

Thereby, the user has easy access to the bed 30.

In the compartment 1 of the present embodiment, the outer dimension is 1100 (mm) or less, 2100 (mm) or less, and 1950 (mm) or less.

This can ensure a user's use space in the indoor space R and suppress the size of the compartment 1 from becoming larger to such an extent that the user does not feel oppressed. Further, if the compartment 1 has such an outer size, the compartment 1 can be loaded and unloaded easily because the compartment is large enough to be used as an elevator.

In the compartment 1 of the present embodiment, the illumination device 70 is disposed in the housing portion 11g.

Thus, the free space below the feet of the user when the user is sleeping on the bed 30 is used, so that the use space of the user in the indoor space R can be secured. Therefore, the user is less likely to feel oppressive even in the indoor space R.

In the compartment 1 of the present embodiment, the operation device 40 includes a first operation unit 40a disposed on the external space side of the compartment 1 and a second operation unit 40b disposed in the indoor space R of the compartment 1.

This allows the user to operate both from the indoor space R and from the outdoor space of the compartment 1, thereby improving the convenience of the user.

In the compartment 1 of the present embodiment, the housing portion 11g is disposed on the opposite side of the second operation portion 40b with respect to the center of the indoor space R in the longitudinal direction.

This makes it possible to keep the housing 11g in which the lighting device 70 is disposed as far away from the head of the user as possible. Therefore, the user can further relax in the indoor space R.
