[Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] Patent No. 354039 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] In buildings where a control room is located on the entrance floor, it is desirable to have the control room facing the entrance hall and to have a window on the wall of the control room facing the entrance hall so that the entrance hall can be easily monitored.

[0005] However, installing a window on the wall of the management office facing the entrance hall caused problems such as making it easier for people entering the entrance hall to notice the existence of the management office, which reduced the aesthetic appeal of the entrance hall.

[0006] The present invention has been made in consideration of such problems, and its object is to provide a building that makes it difficult to notice the presence of a control room from the entrance hall, while making it easy to monitor the entrance hall from the control room. [Means for solving the problem]

[0008] In the building of the present invention having the above configuration, it is preferable that the one-way mirror covers the outer surface of the wall from the upper end to the lower end.

[0009] In the building of the present invention having the above configuration, it is preferable that the reverse surface of the one-way mirror facing the control room is masked black except for the window portion.

[0010] In the building of the present invention having the above configuration, it is preferable that an entrance to the management room is provided in a wall of the management room that does not face the entrance hall. Effect of the Invention

[0011] According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a building in which the entrance hall can be easily monitored from the control room while making it difficult to notice the presence of the control room from the entrance hall. [Brief description of the drawings]

[Diagram 5] FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view showing the details of the one-way mirror. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0013] Hereinafter, a building 1 according to one embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

[0014] The building 1 according to this embodiment shown in Fig. 1 is, for example, a hotel, a hospital, an apartment building, etc., which an unspecified number of people can enter and exit. The building 1 has multiple floors, and a management room 3 is provided on the floor where the entrance 2 is provided, i.e., the entrance floor.

[0015] An entrance hall 5 connected to the entrance 2 via a corridor 4 is provided on the entrance floor of the building 1. The entrance hall 5 is a hall through which visitors who enter the building 1 from the entrance 2 pass when moving from the entrance 2 to a desired floor or location in the building 1. In this embodiment, the entrance hall 5 also serves as an elevator hall in which multiple elevators 6 are provided, and visitors who enter the building 1 from the entrance 2 can ride the elevators 6 from the entrance hall 5 to move to their destination on another floor.

[0016] The entrance hall 5 is a hall through which visitors who enter the building 1 from the entrance 2 pass when moving from the entrance 2 to their desired floor or location in the building 1, and its shape, size, etc. can be modified in various ways.

[0017] In this embodiment, the entrance hall 5 may be provided with other floor movement means such as escalators, stairs, etc. instead of the elevator 6, or may be provided with a plurality of floor movement means such as escalators, stairs, etc. in addition to the elevator 6. In this embodiment, stairs are provided adjacent to the corridor 7 extending from the entrance hall 5.

[0018] The control room 3 is a place for centralized management of buildings, facilities, crime prevention, disaster prevention, etc., and a manager such as a security guard who performs the management can be stationed there. The control room 3 may be, for example, a disaster prevention center.

[0019] The management room 3 is partitioned by multiple walls 3a, 3b, 3c and is located adjacent to the entrance hall 5, with part of wall 3a facing the entrance hall 5. In other words, wall 3a of the management room 3 faces the entrance hall 5 and part of it partitions the end of the entrance hall 5 on the management room 3 side. The part of wall 3a of the management room 3 that does not face the entrance hall 5 forms a corridor 8 between it and the elevator 6 etc.

[0020] The wall 3b of the management room 3 that does not face the entrance hall 5 is connected to the wall 3a at a right angle, and forms a corridor 10 between it and the wall 9 extending from the entrance hall 5 side.

[0021] An entrance 3d to the management room 3 facing the corridor 10 is provided in a wall 3b of the management room 3. In this embodiment, the entrance 3d is provided in a location on the wall 3b that is farthest from the entrance hall 5. Since the entrance 3d is provided on the wall 3b that does not face the entrance hall 5 of the management room 3, it is difficult to see from the entrance hall 5.

[0022] As long as the management room 3 is adjacent to the entrance hall 5 and has a wall 3a facing the entrance hall 5, its shape, size, the shapes of the other walls 3b and 3c, the position of the entrance 3d, etc. can be changed in various ways. The management room 3 can also be configured so that a window 3e is provided in the wall 3b.

[0023] As shown in Figures 2, 3 and 4, a monitoring window 3f for monitoring the entrance hall 5 is provided on the wall 3a of the management room 3 facing the entrance hall 5. The window 3f is an opening facing the entrance hall 5, and the manager 20 can visually monitor the entrance hall 5 through the window 3f from inside the management room 3. The window 3f is preferably of a size and shape that allows the entire interior of the entrance hall 5 to be viewed from inside the management room 3. In this embodiment, the window 3f has a horizontally long rectangular shape.

[0024] The window 3f may be configured with a transparent window material 3g formed of glass or synthetic resin embedded therein, but may not have the window material 3g.

[0025] In this manner, in the building 1 of this embodiment, by providing the window 3f for monitoring the entrance hall 5 in the wall 3a facing the entrance hall 5, the entrance hall 5 can be easily monitored from the management office 3.

[0026] A magic mirror 30 is provided on the outer surface (the surface facing the entrance hall 5) of the wall 3a on which the window 3f is provided, to cover the window 3f. That is, the window 3f provided on the wall 3a facing the entrance hall 5 of the management room 3 is covered from the outside, i.e., the entrance hall 5 side, by the magic mirror 30 provided on the outer surface of the wall 3a.

[0027] As shown in Fig. 5, the magic mirror 30 has a mirror body 30a formed in a transparent plate shape from organic glass made of synthetic resin such as plate glass or acrylic resin, and a reflective film 30b such as a metal thin film layer formed on one side of the mirror body 30a by a method such as plating or vapor deposition. The magic mirror 30 functions as a beam splitter that reflects a part of the incident light, and looks like a mirror from the bright side and semi-transparent from the dark side. The magic mirror 30 may be, for example, a half mirror.

[0028] The entrance hall 5 is brighter than the inside of the management room 3. Therefore, the magic mirror 30 looks like a mirror from the entrance hall 5 side, so visitors in the entrance hall 5 cannot see the window 3f covered by the magic mirror 30, as shown in Figs. 2 and 4. On the other hand, the magic mirror 30 looks translucent from the management room 3 side, so the manager 20 can see the inside of the entrance hall 5 from inside the management room 3 through the window 3f and the magic mirror 30, as shown in Fig. 2.

[0029] In order to make the magic mirror 30 look like a mirror from the entrance hall 5 side, the magic mirror 30 may be illuminated with lighting or the like from the entrance hall 5 side so that the entrance hall 5 side of the magic mirror 30 is brighter than the management room 3 side, or the window 3f may be enclosed so that the management room 3 side of the magic mirror 30 is darker than the entrance hall 5 side.

[0030] In this way, in the building 1 of this embodiment, the window 3f provided in the wall 3a of the management room 3 is covered with the one-way mirror 30 provided on the outer surface of the wall 3a, so even if a monitoring window 3f is provided in the wall 3a facing the entrance hall 5, it is possible to make the presence of the monitoring window 3f, i.e., the management room 3, difficult to notice from the entrance hall 5. Therefore, according to the building 1 of this embodiment, it is possible to easily monitor the entrance hall 5 from the management room 3 while making it difficult to notice the presence of the management room 3 from the entrance hall 5.

[0031] In this embodiment, the magic mirror 30 is a rectangular plate larger than the window 3f and covers the outer surface of the wall 3a from the top to the bottom. In other words, the magic mirror 30 covers the entire portion of the wall 3a facing the entrance hall 5.

[0032] With this configuration, the entire portion of the wall 3a facing the entrance hall 5 can be seen as a mirror from the entrance hall 5, making the presence of the monitoring window 3f, i.e., the management room 3, less noticeable than in a configuration in which only the window 3f is covered with the one-way mirror 30.

[0033] When the magic mirror 30 is configured to cover the outer surface of the wall 3a from the top to the bottom, it is preferable to configure the back surface of the magic mirror 30 facing the management room 3 to be masked black except for the window 3f. With this configuration, it is possible to reliably prevent the internal structure of the wall 3a from being seen from the entrance hall 5 through the magic mirror 30.

[0034] When the magic mirror 30 is configured to cover the outer surface of the wall 3a from the top to the bottom, the mirror body 30a other than the part covering the window 3f of the magic mirror 30 may be made of frosted glass. With this configuration, it is possible to more reliably prevent the internal structure of the wall 3a from being seen from the entrance hall 5 through the magic mirror 30.

[0035] As described above, in the building 1 of this embodiment, the entrance 3d of the management room 3 is provided on the wall 3b that does not face the entrance hall 5 of the management room 3. This makes it difficult to see the entrance 3d of the management room 3 from the entrance hall 5, making it even more difficult to notice the existence of the management room 3 from the entrance hall 5.

[0036] Furthermore, in the building 1 of this embodiment, the window 3e of the management room 3 is also provided on the wall 3b that does not face the entrance hall 5 of the management room 3, making the window 3e of the management room 3 difficult to see from the entrance hall 5 and making it even more difficult to notice the existence of the management room 3 from the entrance hall 5.

[0037] The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and it goes without saying that various modifications can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.

[0038] For example, in the above embodiment, the entrance hall 5 is configured to also serve as an elevator hall, but this can be modified in various ways to suit the building 1, for example, to serve as a lobby if the building 1 is a hotel.

[0039] Furthermore, the building 1 is not limited to having multiple floors, and may have only an entrance floor. [Explanation of symbols]
