Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a lighting device, and more particularly, to a lighting device capable of exhibiting a predetermined scent effect.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, various types of fragrances that can be arranged in a room are commercially available. The fragrance is filled in a predetermined container, and the fragrance amount can be appropriately adjusted by, for example, changing the exposed amount of a member having impregnating properties.

[0003]

However, since the conventional fragrance is filled in a dedicated container, there is no other way than to use it on furniture or the like existing in the indoor space.
For this reason, it is difficult to adjust the texture, the color, and the like of the furniture, and the decorative balance between the furniture and the furniture may be unbalanced, and the appearance of the furniture may be impaired.

[0004] In addition, in the case of the above-mentioned fragrance, there is a tendency that after setting the amount of expression of a member having impregnating properties, the adjustment of the amount of expression is troublesome or forgotten. strong. As a result, the amount of expression becomes constant without depending on the temperature and humidity, so that unnecessary fragrance components are released and the fragrance effect is reduced in a relatively short period of time.

[0005] By the way, there are various kinds of fragrances, but recently, attempts have been made to make natural scents drift in living room spaces.
For example, it is perceived that the scent that is slightly drifting in forests is pleasant to humans because it has a mental effect that relieves stress and gives peace to many people. Here, the main component of the odor emitted by the forest trees is a substance called terpene or phytoncide, which is said to have an effect of relieving fatigue to humans and improving blood circulation.

[0006] Therefore, there has been proposed a construction example in which such a terpene is contained in an adhesive, and the indoor wall surface is cross-bonded with the adhesive.

[0007] However, when a terpene-containing adhesive is used for adhering the cloth, the area exposed to the air is large, which tends to increase the scent release rate in combination with the air permeability of the cloth. However, there is an inconvenience that it is not necessarily suitable for maintaining the forest scent for a long time. This is considered to be due to the fact that the cloth itself does not have an obstructive property. In particular, when indoor ventilation is performed periodically, such inconvenience becomes more remarkable. In addition, in this configuration, the fragrance cannot be replenished after the fragrance effect has ceased, so that it must be temporary.

[0008]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a fragrance effect that can ensure the fragrance effect of a fragrance without using a special dedicated container, and that the fragrance emission amount can be appropriately adjusted by turning on a lighting device. It is an object of the present invention to provide a lighting device capable of continuing radiation for as long as possible.

It is another object of the present invention to provide a lighting device which uses terpene as a fragrance and which can be used in the above-mentioned environment in which the terpene emits to a person.

[0010]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a holding member for holding a light source body, wherein the holding member holds a predetermined fragrance, and an opening capable of releasing the fragrance component of the fragrance. Is provided. According to such a configuration, the effect of the fragrance can be exhibited without using a special container or the like for storing the fragrance. In addition, the fragrance is heated by the heat generated from the light source body, whereby the amount of volatilization of the fragrance component is increased only when the light source body is turned on, so that the fragrance effect can be strongly imparted.

Further, according to the present invention, a predetermined fragrance is accommodated in a holder for holding a light source body, and an open portion capable of releasing an aromatic component of the fragrance is provided, and the release can be regulated in the open portion. The cover is provided. According to such a configuration, the same effect as described above can be obtained by removing and using the cover, and when the fragrance is not desired, the opening can be closed by the cover.

Further, the present invention relates to a lighting device comprising a holder for holding a light source, and a column supporting the holder and having a length adjustable, wherein the column has a predetermined inside. A cylindrical portion for accommodating the fragrance, and an open portion capable of releasing the fragrance component of the fragrance, wherein the open portion is closed when the support is set at the first position. When set to the second position, a configuration is also adopted in which the opening is opened to release the fragrance component. By adopting such a configuration, the emission of the fragrance component and the regulation thereof are performed in accordance with the height adjustment of the light source body, so that the fragrance speed can be appropriately delayed, whereby the emission of the fragrance component over a long period of time can be achieved. It can be realized.

[0013]

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION The support according to the present invention further includes a fixture provided so that the illumination position of the light source body can be adjusted by a rotating operation, and a predetermined fragrance is provided between the support and the fixture. It is also possible to adopt a configuration in which a ventilation path is provided that can be disposed and that can release the fragrance component of the fragrance, and the ventilation path is provided so as to be openable and closable by rotation of the column. According to this, the air passage is opened and closed when the column is rotated to adjust the lighting position, whereby the same effect as described above can be obtained.

Preferably, the fragrance is a terpene which mainly emits an odor emitted from a forest tree. As a result, it becomes possible to give a person using the drawer the mental effect of the terpene on the person, and when the lighting device is applied to a desk or the like, even if there are individual differences, the learning effect is small. Can be expected to contribute.

In this specification, positional terms and directional terms are used with reference to FIG. 1 unless otherwise specified.
