Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve an atmosphere, and to enable bathing comfortably by viewing an arbitrary pattern by a large number of through-holes bored to a domed bathroom ceiling. CONSTITUTION:A domed ceiling 1 is formed above a bathtub installing section and a washing place section is formed in a domy shape. A large number of through-holes 2 are bored previously to a domed ceiling board 8 constituting the ceiling 1 extending over approximately a front, and arbitrary patterns 3 are formed onto the ceiling 1 by a large number of the through-holes 2. The tip sections of optical fibers 4 led out of a light source box 9 disposed onto the ceiling are arranged previously into each through-hole 2, and the tip section of the specified optical fiber 4 is light-emitted, thus forming a pattern by the emission to a part of the ceiling 1.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a bathroom which allows a user to take a bath while watching the pattern on the ceiling.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a ceiling of a bathroom is generally formed in a flat plate shape, and as ancillary equipment provided on the ceiling surface, a lighting fixture for illuminating the inside of the bathroom is attached. ..

[0003]

Therefore, the atmosphere in the bathroom is poorly changed, and the bathroom is currently used only for bathing. The present invention is intended to solve the above-described problems, and a bathroom in which the ceiling surface has a shape with a depth and an arbitrary pattern can be seen on the ceiling surface so that the atmosphere is improved and a comfortable bath can be taken Is to provide.

[0004]

According to the present invention, in order to achieve the above object, a large number of through holes 2 are formed in a ceiling surface 1 formed in a dome shape, and the large number of through holes 2 are used. Pattern 3
And the other end of the optical fiber 4 whose one end is connected to the light source box 9 is arranged in each through hole 2.

Further, the optical fiber 4 having a smaller diameter may be arranged as it approaches the central vertex of the dome-shaped ceiling surface 1. In addition, a protective cover 5 that covers the optical fiber 4 may be provided behind the ceiling.

[0006]

However, since the ceiling surface 1 is formed in a dome shape, the appearance of the ceiling surface 1 can be made deep, and by making the end portion of the predetermined optical fiber 4 emit light, An arbitrary pattern 3 can be expressed on the ceiling surface 1, and a bather can take a bath while looking at the pattern 3 on the ceiling surface 1.

[0007]

The present invention will be described below in detail based on the illustrated embodiments. As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the bathroom is mainly composed of a bathtub installation part 6 formed at one end side of the room and a washing room part 7 formed at the other end side of the room. The ceiling surface 1 to be arranged above 6 and the washing place 7 is formed in a dome shape. The ceiling surface 1 is composed of a ceiling plate 8 formed in a dome shape, and a large number of through holes 2 are formed in the ceiling plate 8 over substantially the entire surface. The pattern 3 is formed on the ceiling surface 1. Each through hole 2 has an end portion of an optical fiber 4 led out from a light source box 9 arranged behind the ceiling. By causing the end portion of a predetermined optical fiber 4 to emit light, an optical fiber is formed on a part of the ceiling surface 1. A pattern is formed by the light emission of No. 4. In the illustrated embodiment, various constellation patterns 3 are provided on the ceiling surface 1 as the pattern 3.
It is shown that a has been formed. The end portion of the optical fiber 4 to be inserted into each through hole 2 is airtightly waterproofed between the through hole 2 and the optical fiber 4 by a sealant (not shown). It is designed to prevent moisture from entering the ceiling. Below the ceiling plate 8, an arcuate opening 10a is formed in the central portion.
The light shielding plate 10 provided with the
Lighting devices 11 for indirect lighting are arranged at a plurality of places between the ceiling plate 8 and the ceiling plate 8 so as not to be seen from the room. Examples of the luminaire 11 include a luminaire 11a capable of emitting blue light (other colors may be used),
It is composed of a lighting fixture 11b capable of emitting white light, and the lighting fixtures 11 are arranged so as to face each other as shown in FIG. 1, and each lighting fixture 11 is operated independently. You can do it.

The optical fiber 4 arranged in the through hole 2 formed in the ceiling surface 1 has the ceiling surface 1 as shown in FIGS.
The diameter becomes smaller toward the central apex of the optical fiber 4. When the ends of the respective optical fibers 4 are made to emit light, the amount of light emission at the ends of the small-sized optical fibers 4 becomes smaller, making them appear to shine far It is possible to give a sense of perspective to the light emitting position of the optical fiber 4. Also,
When the end portion of the optical fiber 4 is made to emit light, a synergic effect with the dome-shaped ceiling surface 1 whose central portion is located at the back can give the ceiling surface 1 a perspective and a depth feeling. It has become.

As shown in FIG. 1, a protective cover 5 is provided above each optical fiber 4 so as to cover the optical fiber 4. The protective cover 5 protects the optical fiber 4 during construction. The operator is prevented from being caught in the optical fiber 4 and cutting or bending the optical fiber 4.

The light source box 9 is a dome-shaped ceiling plate 8.
Are placed at any of the four corners of the quadrangular ceiling board support member 12 on which the light source box 9 is to be placed, whereby the light source box 9 is stably placed behind the ceiling in a horizontal state. That is, when the dome-shaped ceiling plate 8 is mounted on the quadrangular ceiling support member 12, the four corners have the largest flat area, and the light source box 9 is arranged at any of the four corners.

[0012] Therefore, the pattern 3 such as the constellation pattern 3a can be expressed on the ceiling surface 1 with a sense of perspective by causing the end portion of the predetermined optical fiber 4 to emit light. You can take a bath while looking at the pattern 3 of the
By illuminating the ceiling surface 1 with, it is possible to express the state of the sunrise sky or the night sky. By selecting the light emitting positions of the lighting fixture 11 and the optical fiber 4, the scenes expressing various states are produced. Therefore, the atmosphere in the room can be improved. Then, each scene can express various scenes by controlling the lighting device 11 and the lighting controller 13 for controlling the light emitting position of the optical fiber 4 as shown in FIG. 5 as shown in Table 1. Is.

In the illustrated embodiment, the pattern 3 to be formed on the ceiling surface 1 is the constellation pattern 3a, but the pattern 3 is not limited to this, and the characters are not limited thereto. It may be a picture or the like. Further, in the illustrated embodiment, the end face of the optical fiber 4 is shown so as to be directly exposed in the bathroom, but each optical fiber 4 should be covered in consideration of contamination prevention and the like. Ceiling board 8
You may make it arrange | position the dome-shaped transparent plate in proximity to the lower surface of this.

[0014]

As described above, according to the present invention, a large number of through holes are formed in the dome-shaped ceiling surface, and an arbitrary pattern is formed by the large number of through holes. Since the other end of the optical fiber connected to the light source box is arranged, the appearance of the ceiling surface can be made deep by the ceiling surface formed in a dome shape. By illuminating, it is possible to show an arbitrary pattern on the ceiling surface, and the bather can take a bath while seeing the pattern formed on the ceiling surface with a depth, and the atmosphere is good. It can be a bathroom.

Further, when the optical fibers each having a smaller diameter are arranged toward the central apex of the dome-shaped ceiling surface, the pattern formed by emitting light from the end of a predetermined optical fiber gives a sense of perspective. It is possible to take out the image and to improve the visual sense of depth by the synergistic effect with the dome-shaped ceiling surface having a depth. Also, if a protective cover for covering the optical fiber is provided on the ceiling, the optical fiber itself can be prevented from being exposed to the ceiling, and the optical fiber can be prevented from being cut during construction. Is.
