Description

[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a technique for lighting up a building such as an office building.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Lighting up buildings such as office buildings at night is very effective in creating a cityscape with high activity. However, in buildings with conventional light-up facilities, the light-up lighting fixtures provided along the outer wall surface are configured to be turned on at the same time, so they are used for overtime work, etc. If there is a room inside, the indoor lighting equipment and the lighting equipment for lighting up will be turned on at the same time, which not only wastes power consumption, but also for the people in the room to receive light for lighting up from the outside. I felt uncomfortable. For this reason, there were large restrictions on the light-up time and design.
[0003]
Also, in order to prevent the light for lighting up from entering the room through the window, the lighting equipment for lighting up and the building to be lighted up are located on the upper part of the building adjacent to the light up. Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication No. 7-262807 has also proposed a light-up system in which a light-shielding mask having a pattern corresponding to the appearance is provided so that light is irradiated on a wall surface other than a window.
[0004]
This light-up system seems to be effective for buildings with a wide opaque wall between windows, such as buildings with a continuous window structure. Because it is a technology that is supposed to be lit up during use, the interior lighting equipment and the lighting equipment for lighting up will be turned on at the same time. It is the same as the example.
[0005]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
The present invention has been made in consideration of the above points, and the object of the present invention is to illuminate the building according to the usage state of the room, thereby eliminating waste of power consumption and the room. The lighting conditions change depending on the usage conditions of the lights, creating a cityscape with even higher activity, and there is no functional inconvenience even if the lighting lights enter the room. The object is to provide a building with a light-up system that allows greater freedom in belts and design.
[0006]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In order to solve the above problems, the technical means taken by the present invention are as follows. That is, a building equipped with a light-up system according to the present invention is provided with a plurality of light-up lighting fixtures that illuminate the boundary area between indoor and outdoor, the light-up range by them corresponding to the compartment of the room, When a lighting fixture for a room and an indoor lighting fixture for each room are turned off, only the lighting fixture for that room is automatically turned on. When the room lighting fixtures in the room are turned on, only the light-up lighting fixtures corresponding to the room are automatically turned off, and only the range corresponding to the room where the room lighting fixtures are turned off is illuminated. It is characterized by being configured.
[0007]
The main switch that turns on / off the power of the light-up lighting fixture may be configured to be turned on and off artificially, but it detects that the brightness of the timer or sunlight falls below a certain level. It is desirable to perform control so that the detector is turned on by the detector to be turned on and turned off after the set time by the timer elapses. In any case, when the main switch is in the ON state, the above light-up system operates.
[0008]
The lighting fixture for light-up may be provided outdoors as described in claim 2, or may be provided indoors as described in claim 3. As described in claim 4, in the case of a building whose outer wall is a double-skin glass curtain wall, it is preferable to install a light-up lighting fixture in the hollow portion of the glass curtain wall for the reason described later.
[0009]
According to the above configuration, when all the rooms are in use and the indoor lighting fixtures are lit even when the sunset and the time when the building should be lit up, Does not light up.
[0010]
When the use of any room is finished and the room lighting fixtures in that room are turned off, the lighting fixtures corresponding to the turned-off room sections are automatically turned on, and the room lighting fixtures are turned off. Illuminate only the area corresponding to the room.
[0011]
When the use of the other room is finished and the indoor lighting equipment is turned off, the lighting equipment for lighting up corresponding to the section of the room is also automatically turned on, and the range of lighting up is expanded. When the indoor lighting fixtures in all the rooms are turned off through the same process one after another, all the lighting fixtures for lighting up are turned on.
[0012]
Then, when the indoor lighting fixture in any room is turned on again, only the lighting fixtures that are provided corresponding to the compartments of the room are automatically turned off, and the room lighting fixture is turned on. Light-up will be interrupted for the range.
[0013]
As described above, since the building is lit up for each room according to the use state of the room, the indoor lighting device and the lighting device for lighting are not turned on at the same time, and waste of power consumption can be avoided.
[0014]
In addition, the range that is lit up by turning on the light-up lighting fixtures corresponds to an unused room where the indoor lighting fixtures are turned off, so there is no functional inconvenience even if light for lighting up enters the room. Therefore, the light-up time zone and design freedom are increased.
[0015]
In particular, the lighting fixtures for lighting up are provided with the lighting up range corresponding to the compartment of the room, and blinking in conjunction with the lighting and turning off of the indoor lighting fixture. By changing, various design effects accompanying temporal changes can be obtained, and a cityscape with higher activity can be created.
[0016]

The light-up system is configured to operate when the main switch is in the ON state, and is controlled to be turned off after the set time by the timer elapses.
[0019]
In addition, as the lighting fixture 1 for light-up, arbitrary things, such as a fluorescent lamp and a halogen lamp, are employable, for example. Moreover, since it is normal to use a fluorescent lamp as the indoor lighting fixture 7, by using the lighting fixture that irradiates light of a wavelength different from that of the indoor lighting fixture 7 as the lighting fixture 1 for lighting up, The visual difference between the lighted up area and the room where the room lighting device 7 is lit (the area that is not lighted up) becomes prominent, which is more effective.
[0020]
According to the above-described configuration, even if the time is late and the time when the building is to be lit up, that is, even if the main switch of the lighting fixture 1 for lighting up is switched to the ON state, all the rooms When 5 is in use and the indoor lighting fixtures 7 are lit, none of the light-up lighting fixtures 1 is lit. FIG. 2A shows a state where the indoor lighting device 7 in the room 5 is lit, so that the lighting device 1 for lighting up is turned off and the window glass 4 in the room 5 is not lit up. Yes.
[0021]
When the use of any room 5 is finished and the indoor lighting device 7 in the room is turned off, the lighting device 1 for lighting up corresponding to the section of the turned off room 5 is automatically turned on.

When the indoor lighting fixtures 7 in all the rooms 5 are turned off through the same process, the entire lighting fixtures 1 are turned on, and the entire building is lit up.
[0023]
When the indoor lighting device 7 in any room 5 is turned on again, only the light-up lighting device 1 provided corresponding to the section of the room 5 is automatically turned off, and the room lighting device 7 is turned on. Since the light-up is interrupted only in the range corresponding to 5, as shown in FIG. 1, a partially light-up state is obtained.
[0024]
As described above, the light-up lighting fixture 1 is provided with the light-up range corresponding to the section of the room 5 and blinks in conjunction with the turn-off and lighting of the room lighting fixture 7. The aspect of the light-up will change, and various design effects that accompany temporal changes will be obtained, creating a cityscape with even higher activity.
[0025]
Further, since the building is lit up according to the usage state of the room 5, the indoor lighting fixture 7 and the lighting fixture 1 are not lit at the same time, so that waste of power consumption can be avoided and the lighting up is possible. The range that is lit up by turning on the lighting device 1 corresponds to the unused room 5 in which the indoor lighting device 7 is turned off, so that there is no functional inconvenience even if light for lighting enters the room, Therefore, the light-up time zone and the degree of freedom in design increase.
