[0026]

[Table 1] The control box 41 has a control panel 42 as an operation panel shown in FIGS. This control panel 42 has a halogen lamp
A light source moving means for moving the outer wall portions 32a, 32b, and 32c of the model 22 and the model 2 and a power switch 43 for turning on and off power supply to the model moving means are attached.

As shown in FIG. 3, the control panel 42 has a light source moving means for moving the halogen lamp 22 in the longitudinal direction of the arm body 21 so that the position of the height of the sun with respect to the house every month and A plurality of, for example, twelve season setting switches 44 for setting the time of sunrise and sunset are attached. In addition, this control panel 42
As shown in FIG. 3, a time setting switch for setting the direction of the halogen lamp 22 by moving the arm body 21 in an arc shape by the light source moving means and setting the height position of the sun for each time with respect to the house. For example, a total of sixty-five 45s are attached every hour.

Further, the control panel 42 includes:
As shown in FIG. 4, the protrusion amount of the roof body with respect to the outer wall of the house, that is, the length of the eaves tip is set in multiple steps, for example, 30 cm,
The amount of the protrusion of the roof body 31 with respect to the outer wall surface 32a of the model 2 when the three stages of 60 cm and 90 cm are set is determined by moving the outer wall portions 32a, 32b, and 32c of the model 2 by the model moving means. The output setting switch 46 is attached. The control panel 42 is provided with a reset switch 47 for initializing, that is, resetting, the conditions set by the season setting switch 44, the time setting switch 45, and the eaves setting switch 46.

Next, the operation of the embodiment will be described.

First, after the power switch 43 is turned on, the output setting switch 46 of one of the eaves selected as appropriate is pressed. Then, when the model moving means moves the sliding surface 16 of the installation section 13, each of the outer walls 32a, 32b, 32c of the model 2 moves, and corresponds to the amount of protrusion of the roof body with respect to the outer wall of the selected house. The protrusion amount of the roof body 31 with respect to the outer wall portion 32a of the model 2 is set.

Next, one of the appropriately selected season setting switches 44 is pressed. As a result, the light source moving unit appropriately moves the halogen lamp 22 in the longitudinal direction of the arm body 21 so that the height of the sun in the selected season with respect to the house and the time of the halogen lamp 22 corresponding to the sunrise and sunset times. Set the position.

Further, any one of the time setting switches 45 appropriately selected is pressed. Then, the light source moving means moves the arm body 21 in an arc shape, thereby setting the direction of the halogen lamp 22 at a position corresponding to the position of the sun with respect to the house at the selected time.

As a result, the floor 35 of the model 2 is observed through the viewing window 34 of the model 2 and the sunshine angle with respect to the modeled house at the selected eaves length, season and time. Check the sunshine amount and sunshine duration.

Further, the reset switch 47 is pressed to reset the conditions set by the season setting switch 44, the time setting switch 45, and the eaves setting switch 46.

Thereafter, the season setting switch 44, the time setting switch 45, and the eave outgoing setting switch 46 are appropriately selected and pressed again in order, and the sunshine angle and the sunshine in the season and time with respect to the length of the selected eaves destination are then selected. Check the amount.

As described above, according to the above-described embodiment, the state of sunlight on the floor 35 of the model 2 of the house is observed by the light radiated from the halogen lamp 22, so that the model 2 The actual sunshine angle, sunshine amount and sunshine duration can be easily confirmed. Therefore, compared to the case where the sunshine state of the house is indicated by writing or computer graphic,
A customer or the like who wants to purchase this house can easily understand the sunshine state of this house.

Further, even if the amount of sunshine and the sunshine time of a house to be newly constructed due to the influence of an adjacent house, etc., the sunshine of the house to a customer or the like is smaller than that shown in a document or computer graphic. The state can be easily understood.

Furthermore, by actually observing the model 2 visually, the sunshine angle and the amount of sunshine of the house made into the model 2 can be easily confirmed. By observing, the sunshine state of this house can be easily understood. As a result, it is possible to check the sunshine of the modeled house 2 and the degree of sunlight entering the house beforehand, so that it is possible to prevent the problem of sunshine right after purchase.

By appropriately selecting and pressing the season setting switch 44, the time setting switch 45, and the eaves setting switch 46 in sequence, the halogen lamp 22 and the outer wall portions 32a, 32b, 32c of the model 2 are appropriately changed. By observing the floor 35 of the model 2 from the viewing window 34 as it moves, it is possible to easily check the sunshine state of the converted model 2 at the date and time you want to check, and to convert the model 2 under the selected conditions. It is possible to easily check the sunshine angle and the amount of sunshine at the season and time with respect to the length of the eaves of the house. Therefore, a customer or the like of this house can easily understand the amount of sunshine and the length of sunshine of this house.

When the eave outgoing setting switch 46 is pressed, each of the outer walls 32a, 32b, 32c of the model 2 moves, and the amount of protrusion of the roof body 31 with respect to the outer wall 32a of the model 2, that is, the length of the eave tip. The sunshine angle, the amount of sunshine, and the duration of sunshine into the model 2 can be confirmed. Therefore, by observing the floor 35 of the model 2 from the viewing window 34 of the model 2, the sunshine angle, the amount of sunshine, and the sunshine time into the house with respect to the length of the eaves in the house made into the model 2 Can be easily understood. Therefore, by selecting the appropriate length of the eaves tip, it is possible to save energy such as indoor heating or cooling in relation to the amount of sunlight radiated into the house.

Further, since the model 2, the arm body 21 and the halogen lamp 22 are provided inside the case body 11, external influences on the model 2, the arm body 21 and the halogen lamp 22, etc., for example, the model 2, the arm Damage to the body 21 and the halogen lamp 22 can be prevented.

Further, the top plate 18 of the case 11 and the case 14
Since the side plate portion 17a and the side plate portion 17a are formed of a smoked acrylic plate material that blocks light from the outside, natural light such as sunlight and room light that are radiated to the case portion 14 from the outside can be efficiently prevented. As a result, the sunshine angle, the sunshine amount, the sunshine time and the like with respect to the model 2 can be more clearly confirmed, so that the usability of the user can be improved.
