[0010] First Embodiment 1 shows a berth 1A installed on a ship according to the first embodiment. The berth 1A includes a support base 2 that supports bedding 3 such as a mattress, a ceiling wall 21 that faces the support base 2 across a sleeping space 30, and a pair of front support columns 41, 42 and a pair of rear support columns 43, 44 that support the ceiling wall 21 at the four corners of the support base 2.

[0011] In this embodiment, the support bases 2 are provided in multiple tiers so that the sleeping space 30 is arranged in multiple tiers, and the support bases 2 other than the lowest tier serve as the ceiling wall 21 for the lower tier support bases 2. The front side supports 41, 42 and the back side supports 43, 44 support all the support bases 2 and the uppermost ceiling wall 21. In this embodiment, the left side of Fig. 1 is the head side, and the right side of Fig. 1 is the foot side.

[0012] Each support base 2 has a substantially rectangular shape in a plan view. In this embodiment, there are three support bases 2, but the number of support bases 2 may be one or two, or may be four or more.

[0013] A frame body 5, which is rectangular in plan view, is attached to the upper ends of the front support columns 41, 42 and the rear support columns 43, 44. A ceiling board 51 is attached to the frame body 5 so as to cover the sleeping space 30. The frame body 5 and the ceiling board 51 form the uppermost ceiling wall 21. However, the ceiling board 51 may be omitted, and the portion of the uppermost ceiling wall 21 that covers the sleeping space 30 may be formed from a structure of the ship.

[0014] Furthermore, the bed 1A includes a rear wall 61 facing each sleeping space 30 between the rear support columns 43, 44, and a pair of side walls 62, 63 facing each sleeping space 30 between the front support columns 41, 42 and the rear support columns 43, 44.

[0015] In this embodiment, all rear walls 61 are formed from a single, vertically continuous board attached to the rear surfaces of the rear support columns 43, 44, the frame body 5, and the support base 2. However, multiple divided boards, each for a separate sleeping space 30, may be attached to the rear surfaces of the rear support columns 43, 44, the frame body 5, and the support base 2, and each rear wall 61 may be formed from a corresponding divided board. In this case, each divided board may fit into a frame formed by the rear support columns 43, 44, the support base 2, and the ceiling wall 21. Alternatively, the single board or the divided boards may be omitted, and the rear wall 61 may be formed from a structure of the ship.

[0016] In this embodiment, all of the left-side side walls 62 are formed from a single, vertically continuous board attached to the left side surfaces of the front support column 41, the rear support column 43, the frame body 5, and the support base 2. However, multiple divided boards, each for a separate sleeping space 30, may be attached to the left side surfaces of the front support column 41, the rear support column 43, the frame body 5, and the support base 2, and each side wall 62 may be formed from a corresponding divided board. In this case, each divided board may fit into a frame formed by the front support column 41, the rear support column 43, the support base 2, and the ceiling wall 21. Alternatively, the single board or the divided boards may be omitted, and the side wall 62 may be formed from a structure of the ship.

[0017] Similarly, in this embodiment, all of the right-side side walls 63 are formed from a single, vertically continuous board attached to the right side surfaces of the front support column 42, the rear support column 44, the frame body 5, and the support base 2. However, multiple divided boards, each for each sleeping space 30, may be attached to the right side surfaces of the front support column 42, the rear support column 44, the frame body 5, and the support base 2, and each side wall 63 may be formed from a corresponding divided board. In this case, each divided board may fit into a frame formed by the front support column 42, the rear support column 44, the support base 2, and the ceiling wall 21. Alternatively, the single board or the divided boards may be omitted, and the side walls 63 may be formed from a structure of the ship.

[0018] The bed 1A also includes a sideboard 7 located on the front side, in other words, facing the back wall 61 with each sleeping space 30 in between, and divided into sections for each sleeping space 30. In this embodiment, each sideboard 7 is fitted between the support base 2 and the ceiling wall 21. However, the sideboard 7 may be continuous in the vertical direction so as to form a single board that crosses all the sleeping spaces 30 outside the support base 2 and the frame body 5.

[0019] In this embodiment, each sideboard 7 closes the space between the support base 2 and the ceiling wall 21 at a position adjacent to the front support pillar 41 on the head side. Each sideboard 7 also forms an opening 20 between itself and the front support pillar 42 on the foot side. A user of the bed 1A enters and exits the sleeping space 30 through the opening 20. A curtain 11 is provided over each opening 20.

[0020] Furthermore, in this embodiment, each sideboard 7 is hollow, and as shown in Figure 2, the inner surface 71 of each sideboard 7 facing the sleeping space 30 has multiple holes 73 formed thereon, which connect the internal space of the sideboard 7 with the sleeping space 30.

[0021] In this embodiment, when each sideboard 7 is viewed from the inside, holes 73 are formed in a matrix in the upper left region of the inner surface 71, and recesses 72 are formed in the lower left region of the inner surface 71. Furthermore, a storage net 81 is attached to the recesses 72.

[0022] Additionally, an outlet 82, a light 84, and a switch 83 for the light 84 are attached to the upper right region of the inner surface 71. This allows electrical appliances to be connected to the outlet 82 from the head side, and the light 84 to be turned on and off from the head side, improving convenience.

[0023] In the bed 1A configured as described above, the portion of each sleeping space 30 facing the side wall 62 on the head side is completely covered by the sideboard 7, the ceiling wall 21 and part of the back wall 61, thereby improving the sense of privacy.

[0024] Moreover, in this embodiment, each sideboard 7 is located on the head side and has holes 73 that connect the internal space with the sleeping space 30, so that the sideboard 7 located on the head side can be given a soundproofing function. It is also possible to hang items by hooking a hook into the holes 73.

[0025] Furthermore, in this embodiment, storage nets 81 are attached to the recesses 72 formed in the inner surfaces 71 of each side board 7, so that items can be stored in the recesses 72 of the side board 7 located on the head side. In particular, when the side board 7 is hollow to provide sound insulation, as in this embodiment, a large storage space can be secured by utilizing the thickness of the side board 7.

[0026] Second Embodiment A bed 1B according to the second embodiment is shown in Fig. 3. In this embodiment, the same components as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and redundant explanations will be omitted.

[0027] In this embodiment, as in the first embodiment, each of the multiple sideboards 7 divided into sections for each sleeping space 30 is fitted between the support base 2 and the ceiling wall 21. However, the sideboards 7 may be continuous in the vertical direction so as to form a single board that crosses all of the sleeping spaces 30 outside the support base 2 and the frame body 5. Also, in this embodiment, the left side of Fig. 3 is the head side, and the right side of Fig. 3 is the foot side.

[0028] In this embodiment, each sideboard 7 closes the space between the support base 2 and the ceiling wall 21 at a position adjacent to the front support pillar 42 on the foot side. Each sideboard 7 also forms an opening 20 between itself and the front support pillar 41 on the head side.

[0029] As shown in FIG. 4, each sideboard 7 other than the sideboard 7 facing the top sleeping space 30 has a step 9 attached to an outer surface 74 of the sideboard 7 facing away from the sleeping space 30. The step 9 can swing between a vertical position parallel to the sideboard 7 and a horizontal position perpendicular to the sideboard 7.

[0030] More specifically, each sideboard 7 has a recess 75 formed therein, and the step 9 in the upright position is accommodated in the recess 75 .

[0031] In this embodiment, the part of each sleeping space 30 facing the foot side wall 63 is completely covered by the sideboard 7, the support base 2 serving as the ceiling or part of the ceiling wall 64 and the back wall 61, thereby improving the sense of privacy.

[0032] Moreover, in this embodiment, steps 9 attached to the sideboard 7 located at the foot side can be used to ascend and descend to sleeping spaces 30 other than the lowest bunk. Also, since each step 9 is an independent structure from the other steps 9, it is possible to save space compared to using a ladder.

[0033] Furthermore, if each sideboard 7 is provided with a spring that biases the step 9 so that the step 9 automatically assumes a vertical position, convenience can be improved because there is no need to close the step 9. The spring may be, for example, a torsion coil spring.

[0034] <Other embodiments> The present disclosure is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and various modifications are possible without departing from the gist of the present disclosure.

[0035] For example, in the first embodiment, one or both of the holes 73 and the recesses 72 may not be formed on the inner surface 71 of each sideboard 7. If the holes 73 are not formed on the inner surface 71, the sideboard 7 does not need to be hollow.

[0036] Furthermore, in the first embodiment, the outlet 82 does not have to be attached to the inner surface 71 of each sideboard 7, and the light 84 and switch 83 do not have to be attached.

[0037] In addition, in the second embodiment, the recesses 75 do not have to be formed on the outer surfaces 74 of each sideboard 7. However, if the step 9 in the vertical position is stored in the recesses 75 as in the second embodiment, it is possible to prevent people passing around the bed 1B from coming into contact with the step 9 when the step 9 is not in use.

[0038] Furthermore, in the second embodiment, a shelf may be installed that extends horizontally between the inner surface 71 and the back wall 61 of each sideboard 7. The shelf may have any structure that can support items. For example, a shelf may be created by providing a receiving portion on the inner surface 71 and the back wall 61 of the sideboard 7 and attaching a shelf board, or a tension rod may be used. Installing a shelf allows for a large storage space to be secured at the feet.
