The high-temperature refrigerant that has passed through the refrigerant pipe 21 in the mounting table 12 is sent to the compressor 63 again from the flexible tube 68 and the pipe 69. The evaporative compression type refrigerator 61 has a structure in which the whole is covered with a heat insulating material and is not affected by the outside temperature.

As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 6, the lid 40 of the coffin 11 has a rectangular ceiling plate 7 2 and a lower side plate 7 3 to 76 around the same, and one side of the ceiling plate 7 2 Has a conventional opening / closing window 77. The opening / closing window 77 is formed in such a position and size that the entire head of the body 38 can be seen when the body 38 is put in the coffin main body 39.

For example, three germicidal lamps 78 are arranged in parallel in the center of the lower surface of the ceiling plate 72 (the part inside the coffin 11) at predetermined intervals in the width direction. The germicidal lamp 78 can kill bacteria such as pathogens attached to the corpse 38, prevent corrosion of the corpse 38, and prevent secondary infection when the bereaved family touches the corpse 38. Can be prevented.

The side plate 76 of the lid 40 has a male connector 1 7 for power supply of the germicidal lamp 7 8 9 is provided, and a cord 81 having a female connector 180 as a pair at the front end thereof can be connected from the outside. An electric wiring (not shown) is provided to each germicidal lamp 78 from the male connector 79 to supply electricity to each germicidal lamp 78. The cord 81 is connected to the refrigerant supply means 13 to supply electricity.

Further, a photocatalytic paint made of titanium oxide is applied to the inner surface of the lid 40. By irradiating the photocatalyst with the ultraviolet light emitted from the germicidal lamp 78, an unpleasant odor, nitrogen oxides and the like generated from the dead body 38 are decomposed, and the odor can be prevented.

At the time of cremation, a spare lid 82 is prepared. The spare lid 82 is used for excavation from the place where the body 38 is placed (home, funeral hall), and is cremated together with the body 38. This spare lid may be a lid having a conventional wooden opening / closing window, or may be a lid having no opening / closing window. Since the lid 40 is replaced with the spare lid 82, the expensive lid 40 can be used repeatedly.

Further, one of the germicidal lamps 78 is provided with a thermocouple (one example of a temperature sensor) not shown, and the germicidal lamp 78 and the thermocouple are provided with male and female connectors 79, 80. A control device (not shown) connected via an extension cord 81 is disposed in the refrigerant supply means 13 to measure the temperature in the casket 11 and adjust the temperature from a temperature range set by an adjustment knob or the like (not shown). If the temperature is high, the refrigerator 50 is operated to lower the temperature of the refrigerant in the refrigerant tank 52 to lower the air temperature in the casket 11; if the temperature in the casket 11 is too low, the refrigerator is The operation of 50 is stopped, the temperature of the refrigerant is raised, the air temperature in the coffin 11 is raised, and the temperature in the coffin 11 is controlled so as to be always within a certain temperature range. Next, a method of using the coffin device 10 having a cooling function and its operation will be described.

First, the body 38 immediately after death is stored in the coffin body 39 first, the lid 40 is closed, and the coffin 11 is placed on the mounting table 12. The body 3 8 is placed on a tatami 4 4 with a through hole 4 5 placed on the bottom plate 4 1, a futon 8 4 placed on the tatami 4 4 and a pillow 8 5 .

As shown in FIG. 1, the flexible tubes 57 and 58 for connecting the refrigerant pipe 21 and the refrigerant supply means 13 are connected via a one-touch coupler, and the cord 36 is a male type. Connect to electrical wiring 37 via female connectors 34, 35. Further, when the power plug 60 of the refrigerant supply means 13 is connected to a power supply and a switch (not shown) is turned on, electric power is supplied to the pump 53 and the refrigerant inside the mounting table 12 is supplied from the refrigerant supply means 13. Along with sending refrigerant to the pipe 21, electric power is supplied to the fan 22 and the fan 22 rotates and blows the cooled air to the bottom of the coffin main body 39 by the refrigerant pipe 21, thereby cooling the bottom plate 41. It is possible to cool the casket 11 by sending cool air into the casket 1 1 through the vent hole 4 3 formed in the bottom plate 4 1 and the through hole 4 5 formed in the tatami mat 4 4 communicating with the vent hole 4 3. It becomes possible.

Furthermore, the male connector 79 of the lid 40 and the female connector 180 at the end of the code 81 of the refrigerant supply means 13 are connected. Here, since the power plug 60 of the refrigerant supply means 13 is connected to the power supply and a switch (not shown) is turned on, power is supplied to the germicidal lamp 7 8. It can kill pathogens attached to the body 38. Further, the irradiated ultraviolet light activates the photocatalyst, and decomposes off-flavors and nitrogen oxides generated from the dead body 38, thereby preventing malodor.

Temperature data inside the casket 1 1 by thermocouple attached to the germicidal lamp 7 8 Is sent to the control device of the refrigerant supply means 13.

In a normal state, the temperature in the casket 11 is higher than a predetermined temperature (for example, 2 to 5 ° C.), so that the refrigerator 50 operates to cool the refrigerant. Since the pump 5 3 also rotates at the same time, the cooled refrigerant is supplied from the refrigerant tank 52 to the refrigerant pipe 21, and the bottom of the coffin body 39 is cooled by the rotation of the fan 22, and the heat is transferred to the coffin 1. 1 Cool the inside. As the temperature in the coffin 11 decreases, the water vapor contained therein is saturated, but drops from the air holes 43 to remove moisture, so that no water droplets are generated in the coffin 11. No.

By the above operation, the body 38 in the coffin 11 can be kept at a low temperature, and the decay of the body 38 can be slowed. When excavating, remove the lid 40 and use the spare lid 82. Since the spare lid 82 is a wooden lid, it is inexpensive and can avoid burning the relatively expensive lid 40. The lid 40 and the refrigerant supply means 13 are used repeatedly. The structure of the opening window 7 7 is the same as that of a conventional ordinary coffin, and the germicidal lamp 7 8 is not visible from the opening window 7 7 Does not cause discomfort or discomfort.

Next, a coffin device 87 having a cooling function according to a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 7, but is the same as the coffin device 10 having a cooling function according to the first embodiment. The same reference numerals are given to the same components and their detailed description is omitted.

The coffin device 8 7 having the cooling function includes a coffin 8 8, a mounting table 8 9 having a cool air generating means 12 a therein, and a refrigerant supply means 13 for supplying a refrigerant to the cold air generating means 11 a. And Casket 8 8 is a wooden casket, which has no pier at the bottom and has side plates 90 arranged in a rectangular frame shape in plan view. A bottom plate 91 is directly attached to the lower part, and a lid 92 is provided at the upper part. The lid 92 is provided with an opening / closing window 77.

On the other hand, the mounting table 89 has a space for the coffin .88, but is located between the bottom plate 91 of the coffin 88 and the cold air generating means 1a stored in the mounting table 89. In order to form the space 93, the side plate 94 of the mounting table 89 protrudes about 1 to 5 cm above the ceiling plate 14. Thus, the cool air generating means 12 a blows the cool air to the bottom plate 91 of the coffin 88, and the blown cool air passes through the through holes 23 around the blow holes 33 (an example of cool air circulation means). Return to the mounting table 8 9. In this case, since the bottom plate 91 is made of wood, the thermal conductivity is poor, and it seems that the internal body 38 is not cooled, but in fact, the bottom plate 91 is gradually cooled with time, As a result, the tatami mats 44 and the futons 84 are also cooled, and the temperature in the casket 88 decreases. The reason is that the casket 8 8 is hardly opened and closed after storing the body 3 8, and even when worshiping the body 3 8, the inside air is substantially This is because they have been shut down. In order to further reduce the thermal conductivity of the side wall 90 of the coffin 88, it is preferable to use a wood material (for example, particle pod) having a lower thermal conductivity than the bottom plate 91. In this case, since the bottom plate itself requires strength, the bottom plate 91 must be made of a hard and dense material (for example, laminated plywood). In addition, it is preferable to provide a drain hole appropriately in the bottom plate 91.

In the second embodiment, a crosspiece was not provided below the bottom plate 91, but a crosspiece can be provided, whereby the bottom plate can be further thinned. Cooling by the generating means 12a can be promoted.

The coffin devices 10 and 87 having a cooling function according to the first and second embodiments In the case where a perforated plate (including a honeycomb structure) or a grid-like plate is used for part or all of the bottom plate of the coffins 11, 8, 8, many air holes are provided at the bottom of the coffin. Will be. Therefore, the cool air from the cool air generating means 11a directly enters the coffins 11, 88, and the cooling efficiency is further improved. When using a perforated plate for the bottom plate, it is more preferable to use a pier for reinforcement. When a part of the bottom plate is a perforated plate, it is preferable that the bottom plate be located immediately above the cold air generating means 12a.

The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and changes can be made without departing from the scope of the present invention.For example, some or all of the above-described embodiments and modified examples are combined. The configuration of the coffin device having the cooling function of the present invention is also included in the scope of the present invention.

For example, in the above-described embodiment, the number of fans is three, but may be another number. Alternatively, a large fan may be used to blow cold air widely onto the bottom of the coffin. Although the fan is installed at the top of the refrigerant pipe, a fan may be installed at the bottom of the refrigerant pipe to blow air toward the bottom plate of the coffin. Further, the ventilation holes may be widely distributed in the bottom plate of the coffin, and the mat material may be provided with through holes communicating with the ventilation holes. Further, fins for increasing the heat radiation area may be provided on the refrigerant pipe.

In addition, the number of germicidal lamps is three, but may be another number, or in some cases, may be omitted as in the second embodiment.

The mounting table and the lid may be formed so as to be dividable. Further, a refrigerant supply means may be incorporated in the mounting table.

The through-hole provided in the ceiling plate of the mounting table is formed in a square cross section, but the shape is not limited. Further, a wire mesh may be attached directly above the through hole of the mounting table. The lid opening and closing window was manually opened, but automatically opened and closed

Although a photocatalyst uses a paint, a film may be attached, or fine powder of a photocatalyst may be sprayed.
