Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a structure of a station building that houses observation equipment for observing air pollutants, water quality, meteorology, hydrological phenomena, etc. [Background technology]

[0002] Conventionally, for example, when observing pollutants in the air, observation equipment is installed in a building called a station, where environmental pollutants such as nitrogen oxides and PM2.5, as well as weather and hydrological conditions, are observed.

[0003] Incidentally, such a station building is constructed by installing multiple observation instruments in the indoor space of a metal prefabricated building installed in a specified observation area, and extending air intakes through the walls and ceiling to take in outside air to observe pollutants and the like (Patent Document 1). However, metal prefabricated buildings do not have a humidity control effect, so there is a possibility that water droplets and the like may adversely affect the observation instruments. For this reason, it is necessary to use air conditioning equipment to adjust humidity, but this poses the problem of high electricity costs.

[0004] Furthermore, these prefabricated metal buildings are manufactured in factories and then transported to the site for assembly, a method that does not provide any profit to local contractors who install the buildings.

[0005] Furthermore, such metal prefabricated buildings emit large amounts of carbon dioxide during production, and when they are discarded, they must be disposed of as industrial waste because the insulating resins such as polyurethane are contained between the metal sheets.

[0006] [Patent Document 1] JP 2022-188924 A Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0007] To solve the above problems, the present invention aims to provide a station building that has a humidity control effect, does not emit carbon dioxide during manufacturing, can be easily installed even by local contractors, and allows for material and thermal recycling. [Means for solving the problem]

[0008] In other words, in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention provides a station building comprising a foundation portion established on the ground, a floor portion fixed to the foundation portion, wall portions rising from the floor portion, a roof portion covering the upper part of the wall portions, and a door portion established on the wall portion for allowing entry and exit into the indoor space, wherein observation equipment is installed in the indoor space enclosed by the floor portion, wall portions and roof portion, and at least one of the floor portion, wall portions, roof portion and door portion is constructed of wood.

[0009] With this construction, the moisture absorption properties of wood allow the humidity in the interior space to be kept relatively constant, and electricity costs can be significantly reduced. In addition, less carbon dioxide is emitted during manufacturing, and since it can be manufactured without using insulating resins such as polyurethane, it is possible to dismantle the building and recycle the materials and heat. Furthermore, by using local wood, even local contractors can assemble the building at low cost.

[0010] In addition, in such an invention, the floor, wall, roof and door sections are constructed of wood panels with a heat insulating layer.

[0011] By constructing it with wood panels having such an insulating layer, the insulation and moisture-regulating effects can be improved, and electricity costs can be further reduced.

[0012] Furthermore, the roof portion is provided with an eaves portion extending from the wall surface portion, and a hanging portion for hanging a sunshade sheet is provided on the eaves portion.

[0013] With this configuration, direct sunlight can be prevented from hitting the wall surface by hanging a sunshade sheet such as cheesecloth, thereby further lowering the internal temperature. Effect of the Invention

[0014] According to the present invention, in a station building comprising a foundation part provided on the ground, a floor part fixed to the foundation part, a wall part rising from the floor part, a roof part covering the upper part of the wall part, and a door part provided on the wall part for entering and leaving the indoor space, and in which observation equipment is installed in the indoor space surrounded by the floor part, the wall part, and the roof part, at least one of the floor part, the wall part, the roof part, and the door part is made of wood, so that the humidity of the internal space can be kept constant to a certain degree due to the hygroscopicity of wood, and electricity costs can be significantly reduced. In addition, the amount of carbon dioxide emitted during manufacturing is reduced, and further, since it can be manufactured without using insulating resins such as polyurethane, it is possible to dismantle the station building and recycle the materials and heat. In addition, by using local wood, even local businesses can assemble the station building at low cost. [Brief description of the drawings]

[0015] [Figure 1] FIG. 1 is a schematic front view of a station according to an embodiment of the present invention. [Diagram 2] Schematic side view of the same configuration DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0016] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

[0017] The station building 1 in this embodiment is designed to accommodate observation equipment 8 for observing air pollutants, water quality, weather, hydrological phenomena, etc., and includes a base 2 installed on the ground, a floor 3 fixed to the base 2, a wall 4 rising from the floor 3, a roof 6 covering the upper part of the wall 4, and a door 5 installed on the wall 4 for entering and leaving the indoor space, and at least one of the floor 3, the wall 4, the door 5, and the roof 6 is made of wood. By constructing the station building from wood in this way, it is possible to keep the humidity of the interior space constant compared to a metal station building, and by making it possible to use wood from the installation area, it is possible to promote regional revitalization through construction by local businesses. The station building 1 in this embodiment will be described in detail below.

[0018] First, the observation equipment 8 housed inside is capable of observing atmospheric nitrogen oxides, fine particulate matter such as PM2.5, water quality, rainfall, water levels, seismic waves, environmental radioactivity, and other meteorological and hydrological phenomena, and when observing atmospheric pollutants, it is configured to suck in outside air from an air intake 81 extending to the outside of the station building 1 and observe the pollutants contained therein. These observation equipment 8 are powered by an external power source via an outlet 9, or, in the event of a disaster, can also be powered by an auxiliary power source.

[0019] The station building 1 housing such observation equipment 8 is composed of a foundation 2 established on the ground, a floor 3 fixed to the foundation 2, a wall 4 rising from the floor 3, a roof 6 covering the upper part of the wall 4, and a door 5 established on the wall 4 for entering and exiting the indoor space.

[0020] Of these, the foundation 2 is constructed by pouring concrete or the like into the ground, and is constructed as a slab or slab foundation. When constructed as a slab foundation, an inverted T-shaped rebar is protruded from the ground, and concrete is poured into it, thereby reducing the thickness of the concrete. On the other hand, a slab foundation is constructed by pouring a thick layer of concrete into the ground, which makes it difficult for moisture to penetrate the building and also prevents damage caused by termites. In this embodiment, since wood is used for the station building 1, the foundation is constructed as a slab foundation in order to prevent wood corrosion and reduce damage caused by termites.

[0021] The floor section 3 provided on the foundation is provided so as to have a strength sufficient to withstand the load of the observation equipment 8. The floor section 3 is not exposed to direct sunlight and does not directly affect the cause of the internal temperature rise, so it can be made of metal panels, but here it is made of wood. In this case, if the floor section 3 is made of wood, there is a possibility that it may corrode due to moisture from the ground. Therefore, preferably, in order to improve ventilation, a ventilation section 21 is provided in the foundation section 2, and a floor opening 31 may be provided in the floor section 3. The floor opening 31 is opened to improve ventilation and reduce the temperature rise in the internal space.

[0022] Meanwhile, the wall surface portion 4 is provided so as to rise from the floor surface portion 3 and surround the side surface, and in this case is provided as a panel made of two-by-four wood having an internal insulation layer. This panel is constructed by assembling wood pieces measuring two inches wide and four inches long to create a framework, and joining a surface material to the framework, and is provided with insulation material such as wood fiber sealed inside. These panels are then arranged side by side to form the wall surface portion 4 having an insulation layer. An opening 41 is provided in the wall surface portion 4 thus constructed, and opening the opening 41 allows air to circulate, thereby making it possible to suppress an increase in the internal temperature.

[0023] The wall portion 4 is provided with a door portion 5 that allows people to enter and exit the internal space. The door portion 5 may be similarly constructed of a panel made of wood, or may be constructed of a ready-made metal door.

[0024] The roof 6 provided above the wall 4 constitutes the ceiling surface 62 and the roof, and may be a single-sided roof inclined toward the back or a gable roof inclined to the left and right, but here, it is a single-sided roof inclined toward the back. A horizontal ceiling surface 62 is provided below the roof 6 formed of a single-sided roof, and a gap is provided between the roof 6 and the ceiling surface 62 to allow heat from direct sunlight hitting the roof 6 to escape through the wall vent 64, preventing the temperature in the room from becoming too high. When the roof 6 is constructed in this way, it is made of wood, just like the wall 4, but the surface side of the wood may be covered with galvanized iron or tiles to prevent corrosion. The outer edge of the roof 6 is provided to extend significantly outward from the wall 4, thereby forming an eaves portion 61. A hook or other fastening portion 63 for hanging the sunshade sheet 7 is provided on the underside of the eaves portion 61, and the sunshade sheet 7 can be detachably attached to the fastening portion 63. The sunshade sheet 7 can be made of agricultural cheesecloth or a shading net, and the lower portion is fixed to a block body 71 or the like to prevent it from being shaken by the wind or the like.

[0025] The walls 4 and roof 6 of the station building 1 thus constructed are provided with holes 42 for passing the air intake 81 extending from the observation equipment 8. These holes 42 are made by forming a circular hole in the walls 4 with a circular drill or the like, passing the air intake 81 through the hole, and sealing the periphery with silicone or the like.

[0026] Furthermore, a power outlet 9 for supplying an external power source is provided on the wall surface 4 of the station building 1. This power outlet 9 supplies external AC power and is provided to operate the internal observation equipment 8, air conditioner, etc.

[0027] Next, a method for manufacturing the station 1 configured as above will be described.

[0028] First, the ground at the site where station building 1 is to be installed is surveyed, and if the ground is soft, foundation piles or the like are installed to solidify the foundation.

[0029] After the ground has been solidified in this way, a framework for the foundation of the station building 1 is made, and concrete is poured into it to form the mat foundation 2. When constructing this mat foundation, ventilation sections 21 are provided under the floor beforehand to allow air to pass through.

[0030] After constructing the mat foundation in this manner, the wall surface portion 4 is erected on top of it, and the floor surface portion 3 is provided inside the area surrounded by the wall surface portion 4.

[0031] Next, after the wall portion 4 is provided in this manner, the roof portion 6 is formed thereon, and a ceiling surface 62 is provided below the roof portion 6, forming a space between the roof portion 6 and the ceiling surface 62.

[0032] Furthermore, when the wall portion 4 is provided in this manner, a door portion 5 is attached to the portion that will serve as an entrance / exit, allowing observation equipment 8 to be brought into the indoor space.

[0033] After the station building 1 is set up in this way, the observation equipment 8, air conditioning equipment, etc. are brought in and installed and connected to a power source. At this time, if the air intake 81 is to be extended from the observation equipment 8, a circular drill is used to open a hole 42 in the wall portion 4, and the air intake 81 is extended.

[0034] After the station building 1 is set up in this manner, when it is exposed to direct sunlight, such as in summer, a sunshade sheet 7 is attached to a fastening part 63 such as a hook provided on the eaves part 61 of the roof part 6 to prevent direct sunlight from hitting the wall part 4.

[0035] Thus, according to the above embodiment, in the station building 1, which includes a base 2 provided on the ground, a floor 3 fixed to the base 2, a wall 4 rising from the floor 3, a roof 6 covering the upper part of the wall 4, and a door 5 provided on the wall 4 for entering and leaving the indoor space, and in which observation equipment 8 is installed in the indoor space surrounded by the floor 3, the wall 4, and the roof 6, at least one of the floor 3, the wall 4, the roof 6, and the door 5 is made of wood, so that the humidity of the internal space can be kept constant to a certain degree due to the hygroscopicity of wood, and electricity costs can be significantly reduced. In addition, the amount of carbon dioxide emitted during manufacturing is reduced, and further, since it can be manufactured without using insulating resin such as polyurethane, it is possible to dismantle the station building and recycle the materials and heat. In addition, by using local wood, even local contractors can assemble the station building at low cost.

[0036] The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, but can be embodied in various forms.

[0037] For example, in the above embodiment, an air conditioning system or other air conditioning equipment is provided, but if temperature adjustment is possible by opening and closing the opening 41 in the wall portion 4 or the floor opening 31, it is not necessary to provide an air conditioning system or other air conditioning equipment.

[0038] In addition, in the above embodiment, the station building 1 is constructed using two-by-four wooden panels, but the station building 1 may also be constructed using a frame construction method.

[0039] Furthermore, in the above embodiment, the observation equipment 8 observes atmospheric nitrogen oxides, fine particulate matter such as PM2.5, water quality, rainfall, water levels, seismic waves, environmental radioactivity, and other meteorological and hydrological phenomena, but this data may be transmitted from a wireless device installed in the station 1. In particular, when the station 1 is made of wood as in this embodiment, radio wave attenuation is reduced compared to a station made of metal, enabling stable communication.

[0040] In the above embodiment, the opening 41 is provided in the wall portion 4 and can be opened and closed, but this may be configured as a ventilation fan.

[0041] In addition, in the above embodiment, the air intake 81 extends outward and upward from the observation equipment 8, but when conducting water quality surveys, etc., it is preferable to have the water intake extend into the water. [Explanation of symbols]
