Here, if the personal ID 14a cannot be authenticated, the process proceeds to the pre-undressing environment adjustment process described in the flowchart of FIG. 2 (step S14), and the pre-undressing environment adjustment process is completed. The operation process is also terminated.

If the personal ID 14a can be authenticated in step S13, it is confirmed whether or not a preset preference, that is, the personal preference data is stored in the storage means 15 (step S15). If personal preference data is stored, environmental adjustment is performed based on this data (step S16).
If personal preference data is not stored, is the person (resident A) detected by the person detection means 13 from the personal ID 14a data a person who is receiving medical care such as an elderly person or cardiovascular disease? It is confirmed whether or not (step S17).

If the person is not an elderly person or a person who is receiving medical care such as a cardiovascular disease, the process proceeds to step S14 to perform an environmental adjustment process before undressing.
In the case of an elderly person or a person who receives medical care such as cardiovascular disease, in order to reliably suppress heat shock, a fragrance that suppresses an increase in blood pressure is supplied by the fragrance means 10, and blood pressure is supplied by the acoustic means 11. The slow-tempo music that suppresses the rise is supplied, and the lighting means 12 supplies the light that raises the red / orange sensation temperature such as the color of the bulb (step S18). Furthermore, in this step S18, the temperature of the dressing room may be adjusted by the air conditioner 18, or the temperature difference between the dressing room and the adjacent room may be reduced. Thus, the flow of the pre-undressing preparation operation process is completed.

Next, the flow of the behavior prediction process using the behavior prediction means 16 will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.
First, past behavior pattern data stored in the storage means 15 is loaded (step S19), and then today's behavior pattern data (real-time detection result) stored in the storage means 15 is loaded (step S20). ).

Subsequently, the past behavior pattern data and today's behavior pattern data are collated to determine whether or not undressing can be predicted from the behavior pattern of the resident A (step S21).
Whether or not undressing can be predicted is determined based on whether or not a plurality of behavior patterns among the behavior patterns read from the behavior pattern data are satisfied. That is, for example, resident A takes dinner, returns to the bedroom after dinner, picks up a nightcloth, heads to the dressing room, and after entering the dressing room, always closes the door of the dressing room, and then undresses. Then, if the behavior pattern of bathing is routinely performed, it is possible to predict undressing if it can be confirmed that dinner is taken, going to the bedroom, entering the dressing room, and closing the door of the dressing room. If there are days when you just changed into sleepwear at a dressing room, you can set a behavior pattern such as turning on the bathroom light as a condition for predicting undressing, and set it so that you can learn from past behavior pattern data You may do it.

After that, the process proceeds to the pre-undressing environment adjustment process described in the flowchart of FIG. 2 (step S22), and when the pre-undressing environment adjustment process ends, the action prediction process also ends.
Such behavior prediction processing may be incorporated between step S13 and step S15 in the pre-dressing preparation processing described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. If incorporated, instead of performing the environment adjustment process before undressing in step S22, the environment adjustment based on the personal preference data in step S16 may be performed. Further, it may be set so as to interlock with the identification means 14.

  In the behavior prediction processing flow as described above, for example, when a child or an elderly person takes an action that deviates or is dangerous from a stored past action pattern, this is notified. May be. For the notification, the output unit 23 may be used, or a notification unit (not shown) may be employed.

Next, with reference to the flowchart of FIG. 5, a flow of use state detection processing for detecting the use state of a cleaning agent such as shampoo, rinse, soap and the like for cleaning the body will be described.
First, the use or non-use of the cleaning agent is confirmed by the sensor which is the use state detecting means 17 (step S23).
If the use of the cleaning agent is not confirmed, the use state detection process ends. However, while the resident A bathes, the step S23 is performed continuously or intermittently to detect the use of the cleaning agent. You may make it perform.

When the use of the cleaning agent is confirmed, it is confirmed whether or not the fragrance means 10 is operating (step S24).
When the fragrance means 10 is not in operation, the use state detection process is completed, but while the resident A bathes, the step S23 is performed continuously or intermittently to detect the use of the cleaning agent. You may make it perform.
When the fragrance means 10 is operating, the supply of fragrance by the fragrance means 10 is stopped (step S25). This completes the flow of processing for detecting the usage status.

Next, the flow of the pre-sleep environment adjustment process will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. In addition, this process is going to promote the sleep effect when the undressing place 1 is used before sleep.
First, it is determined whether it is before sleep (step S26). This determination may be performed by applying the behavior prediction process described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. 4, or the resident A may determine and be able to appropriately operate the control box 21.

If it is not before sleep, this pre-sleep environment adjustment process ends, but step S26 may be performed continuously or intermittently to determine whether it is before sleep.
When it is before sleep, the fragrance means 10 supplies a relaxing scent such as an herbal system (step S27), and the acoustic means 11 supplies a relaxing and slow-tempo music ( In step S28), light having a dark sleep effect is supplied by the illumination means 12 (step S29). This is the end of the process flow for adjusting the environment before sleep.

In the above description, the resident A enters the dressing room from a room adjacent to the dressing room, undresses, and takes a bath. However, the present invention is not limited to this. That is, the dressing place 1 may be not only a dressing room but also a bathroom, a toilet, or a bedroom. In particular, in the toilet, there may be a large change in blood pressure as in the dressing room.
For example, if the undressing place 1 is a toilet, the person detection means 13 or a seating sensor (not shown) detects the occupant's toilet entry into the toilet A, and after entering and after sitting, the relaxation effect and blood pressure increase are suppressed. It is good also as a setting which supplies the sound with the effect which has an effect and the effect which suppresses a blood pressure similarly and a relaxation effect.
Moreover, after excretion, for example, the excretion may be flowed or the end of excretion may be detected by finishing the sitting state, and a refreshing scent may be supplied after detection.
Even when the undressing place 1 is a toilet, it is desirable that the environmental adjustment system and the air conditioner 18 be effectively linked so that heat shock can be reliably suppressed, particularly in winter.

  Moreover, you may employ | adopt the above environmental adjustment systems as what assists the resident A's wakeup (thing which awakes a wake-up action). That is, the sound means 1 supplies fast-paced music that prompts awakening, and the lighting means 12 supplies bright light that prompts awakening. Then, in the winter season, a warm scent is supplied by the fragrance means 10, and in the summer season, a cool fragrance is supplied by the fragrance means 10, thereby assisting the occupant A to get up. This is preferable.

According to this embodiment, since at least one of the scent by the fragrance means 10, the sound by the acoustic means 11, and the light by the illumination means 12 is supplied based on the temperature of the dressing place 1, these scents And sound and light will act physiologically on the body, and for example, it is possible to suppress an increase in blood pressure of a person, to increase the temperature of experience, or to decrease the temperature of experience. Thus, by adjusting the environment related to the scent, sound and light of the undressing place 1, it is possible to remove the physical factors that cause the heat shock, and thus reliably suppress the heat shock at the undressing place 1. Can do.
In addition to suppressing heat shock, by adjusting the environment related to the scent, sound and light of the undressing place 1 according to the preference and situation of the resident, for example, a relaxing effect, a cool feeling, a sleeping effect, awakening, etc. Since an effect etc. can be acquired, a comfortable living environment can be formed.

  In winter, when the temperature of the dressing place 1 is equal to or lower than a predetermined value, the scent that suppresses the blood pressure increase by the fragrance means 10, the sound that suppresses the blood pressure increase by the acoustic means 11, and the sensory temperature increases by the illumination means 12 Since at least one of the light to be supplied is supplied, the heat shock at the undressing place 1 can be further reduced by suppressing a rapid increase in blood pressure at the undressing place 1 in winter and preventing the temperature of the body from being lowered. It can be surely suppressed.

  Further, when the temperature difference between the undressing place 1 and a room adjacent to the undressing place 1 is a predetermined value or more, a fragrance that suppresses blood pressure increase by the fragrance means 10 and a sound that suppresses blood pressure increase by the acoustic means 11 Since at least one of the light that raises the sensible temperature by the illumination means 12 is supplied, the rapid increase in blood pressure at the dressing place 1 is suppressed regardless of the winter or summer, and the sensible temperature is prevented from lowering. By doing, the heat shock in the said undressing place 1 can be suppressed further more reliably.

  Further, in summer, when the temperature of the undressing place 1 is equal to or higher than a predetermined value, since the fragrance means 10 supplies a cool scent, it is possible to prevent an increase in the sensible temperature in the undressing place 1 in summer. It is possible to form a more comfortable living environment.

Further, in winter, when the temperature of the undressing place 1 is equal to or lower than a predetermined value, warm color light is supplied by the illuminating means 12, so that it is possible to promote an increase in the sensible temperature in the undressing place 1 in winter. The heat shock at the undressing place 1 can be more reliably suppressed.
Further, in the summer, when the temperature of the undressing place 1 is equal to or higher than a predetermined value, the illuminating means 12 supplies the cold-colored light. It can form a more comfortable living environment.

  Further, when a person is detected by the human detection means 13, at least one of the scent by the fragrance means 10, the sound by the acoustic means 11, and the light by the illumination means 12 is supplied. Accordingly, the environment relating to the scent, sound and light of the dressing place 1 can be adjusted.

  In addition, the person detected by the person detecting unit 13 is identified by the identifying unit 14, and at least one of the scent by the fragrance unit 10, the sound by the acoustic unit 11, and the light by the illumination unit 12 based on the identification result. For example, if you are an elderly person or a person who is receiving medical care for cardiovascular disease, etc., always suppress heat shock, not the elderly person or someone who is receiving medical care for cardiovascular disease etc. If it is a resident, the environment which concerns on the fragrance of the said dressing place 1, a sound, and light can be adjusted by a setting which is different for every resident, such that it can acquire another effect.

  Further, since at least one of the scent by the fragrance means 10, the sound by the acoustic means 11, and the light by the illumination means 12 is supplied based on the identification means 14 and preset personal preferences, For each resident, the environment relating to the scent, sound and light of the dressing place 1 can be adjusted according to the preference of the resident, and it is particularly easy to obtain a relaxing effect.

  Moreover, since at least one of the scent by the fragrance means 10, the sound by the acoustic means 11, and the light by the illumination means 12 is supplied based on the prediction result by the behavior prediction means 16, the environment of the dressing place 1 It is possible to prevent a time lag from occurring between the adjustment and the undressing action, and it is possible to adjust the environment related to scent, sound and light in a timely manner.

  Moreover, since the fragrance means 10 is set to stop the supply of fragrance when the use state detection means 17 detects the use of the cleaning agent, the fragrance by the fragrance means 10 and the cleaning agent It is possible to prevent the fragrance from becoming cloudy and to prevent the effect of the fragrance of the fragrance means 10 from being reduced.

  In addition, when the person in the undressing place 1 is before sleeping, the fragrance means 10 has a relaxing scent, the acoustic means 11 has a relaxing sound, and the lighting means 12 has a sleeping effect light. Among them, since at least one of them is supplied, the environment related to the scent, sound and light of the undressing place 1 can be adjusted to promote the sleep effect of the person at the undressing place 1.
