[Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2008-173394 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] However, in the configuration disclosed in Patent Document 1, a single floorboard is installed over the entire upper surface of the bed body. Therefore, in order to lift up the floorboard and store items in the item storage compartment below the floorboard, the entire floorboard must be lifted upward. In this case, a large force is required to lift the floorboard upward, which may increase the burden on the user. In particular, when the bed device is used on a ship, it is likely to experience shaking around the bed device, and the user will have to handle the bed device in an unstable environment. Therefore, a bed device that can be easily handled by the user is desired.

[0005] Therefore, one aspect of the present disclosure aims to provide a berth and berth set for a ship that reduces the load on the user when the user lifts up the floor board to open or close it. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] The berth for a ship disclosed herein is a berth for a ship, comprising: a storage body having a bottom wall that is rectangular in a plan view, side walls, an opening formed on the top surface, and a storage space partitioned by the bottom wall, the side walls, and the opening; a floor board covering the top of the opening; a support body at one end of the floor board that supports the floor board to the storage body; and a plurality of pillars erected at at least four corners on the outside of the storage body and supporting the storage body, wherein the floor board is divided into a plurality of pieces in the longitudinal direction, and each of the divided floor boards is supported rotatably relative to the storage body via the support body. [Effects of the Invention]

[0007] According to the present disclosure, since the storage body and the floor panel are divided into multiple sections in the longitudinal direction, the force required to move the floor panel when opening it can be reduced, thereby minimizing the load on the user when opening or closing the floor panel.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0009] Hereinafter, an embodiment will be described with reference to the drawings. In the following description, the direction from the head side to the foot side of the bedding placed inside the bed is referred to as the longitudinal direction. The direction in which the beds are stacked is referred to as the up-down direction.

[0010] Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a bed set 1. In this embodiment, the bed set 1 is composed of three beds 2, namely, beds 2a, 2b, and 2c, stacked vertically. Fig. 2 shows an enlarged perspective view of one of the three beds 2a, 2b, and 2c, bed 2b.

[0011] The berth set 1 in FIG. 1 is mounted on a ship, for example. The berth set 1, which is made up of three berths 2a, 2b, and 2c stacked vertically, is equipped with a plurality of pillars 6. In this embodiment, the berth set 1 is equipped with four pillars 6a, 6b, 6c, and 6d. Each pillar 6 has a height equivalent to the three berths 2a, 2b, and 2c stacked vertically, and each pillar 6 is arranged so as to contact the three berths 2a, 2b, and 2c. In other words, the pillar 6 is attached to each of the three berths 2a, 2b, and 2c in common.

[0012] Each of the beds 2a, 2b, and 2c includes a bed plate 8 and a storage body 9. The bed plate 8 is rectangular in plan view. The storage body 9 is box-shaped and supports the bed plate 8 below. Four pillars 6a, 6b, 6c, and 6d are connected to the storage body 9. In this embodiment, the four pillars 6a, 6b, 6c, and 6d are erected at least at the four corners of the exterior of the storage body 9. The storage body 9 and the pillars 6a, 6b, 6c, and 6d are connected to each other at the four corners of the storage body 9. A top plate 5 is provided on the upper ends of the four pillars 6a, 6b, 6c, and 6d so as to cover the pillars 6a, 6b, 6c, and 6d. The four pillars 6a, 6b, 6c, and 6d are connected to each other via the storage body 9 and the top plate 5. The pillars 6 are L-shaped angles with an L-shaped cross section in the horizontal plane. The storage body 9 does not have to be directly supported by the pillars 6a, 6b, 6c, and 6d. The storage body 9 may be supported by the pillars 6a, 6b, 6c, and 6d via some other member, so that the storage body 9 is indirectly supported by the pillars 6a, 6b, 6c, and 6d.

[0013] Each of the three beds 2a, 2b, and 2c stacked one on top of the other in the bed set 1 has a bed 4 and a wall 3 surrounding the bed 4. The pillar 6 and the storage body 9 are connected via an angle, for example. In the beds 2a, 2b, and 2c, one longitudinal end of the storage body 9 is the head side, and the other is the foot side. In Figures 1 and 2, the left side of the paper is the head side, and the right side is the foot side.

[0014] 3 shows an enlarged perspective view of the bed 2b with the floor plate 8 open relative to the storage body 9. FIG. 3 also shows a perspective view and a cross-sectional view of the bed 2b, which is located at the middle height among the three beds 2a, 2b, and 2c arranged vertically in FIG. 1.

[0015] As shown in FIG. 3, in the bed 2b, the storage body 9 has a bottom wall 9a and side walls 9b. The storage body 9 also has an opening 11 formed on its top surface. The storage body 9 also has a storage space S2 defined therein by the bottom wall 9a, the side walls 9b, and the opening 11. The floorboard 8 is configured to be able to open and close the storage space S2 of the storage body 9 by moving relative to the storage body 9. When the floorboard 8 closes the storage space S2 of the storage body 9, the floorboard 8 covers the upper part of the opening 11, thereby closing the storage space S2. Bedding 4 is placed on the floorboard 8. By opening the floorboard 8 relative to the storage body 9, storing items inside the storage body 9, and closing the floorboard 8 to store the items inside the storage body, the storage space S2 inside the storage body 9 can be used as an item storage room.

[0016] The wall 3 includes a first wall 3a arranged on one side of the floorboard 8 in the width direction, a second wall 3b erected on one side of the length direction on the head side of the floorboard 8, and a third wall 3c erected on the other side of the length direction on the foot side of the floorboard 8. On the side opposite to the first wall 3a arranged on one side of the width direction of the bed 2b, there is no wall 3, and an entrance / exit section 7 is formed that connects the space S1 on the floorboard 8 to the outside. The bed 2b is equipped with a curtain 10 on the other side of the bedding 4 in the width direction so as to cover the entrance / exit section 7.

[0017] The bed 8 is configured to be rotatable around an axis L1 extending along the longitudinal direction on one side in the width direction relative to the storage body 9. The bed 2b is provided with a support 19 at one end of the bed 8 that supports the bed 8 on the storage body 9. In this embodiment, the support 19 includes a hinge. The bed 8 is attached to the storage body 9 via the support 19 including the hinge, and the bed 8 can rotate relative to the storage body 9 by the hinge of the support 19. In other words, the bed 8 is rotatably supported relative to the storage body 9 via the support 19. When the bed 8 rotates around the rotation axis L1 from a state in which the opening 11 is closed by the bed 8, the bed 8 can open the opening 11. In other words, the opening 11 can be opened by flipping the bed 8 up relative to the storage body 9. In this embodiment, the side of the bed 8 in the width direction on which the rotation axis L1 relative to the storage body 9 is located is referred to as "one side" in the width direction. In addition, the side where the storage body 9 and the floor board 8 are separated in the vertical direction as a result of the floor board 8 being opened relative to the storage body 9 in the width direction is referred to as the "other side" in the width direction.

[0018] 2 and 3, in the bed 2b, the bedding 4 is placed on the upper surface of the floorboard 8. Therefore, the floorboard 8 places the bedding 4 on top and supports the bedding 4 from below. In this embodiment, the pillars 6 support the storage body 9, and the floorboard 8 is supported by the storage body 9, so that the floorboard 8 is supported by the pillars 6. For example, the storage body 9 is attached to the pillars 6 via an angle, so that the pillars 6 are connected to each other via the storage body 9.

[0019] The entrance / exit section 7 of the bed 2b is located on the other widthwise side of the floorboard 8, in a position between the floorboard 8 and the underside of the storage body 9 of the adjacent bed 2a above in the vertical direction. The second wall 3b and the third wall 3c are erected on the outside of the pillars 6. In the entrance / exit section 7, the space S1 above the floorboard 8 is open to the outside on the other widthwise side of each of the three beds 2.

[0020] In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, in a bed set 1 in which a plurality of beds 2 are stacked one above the other, a first wall 3a, a second wall 3b, and a third wall 3c are erected in common to the plurality of beds 2. One first wall 3a, one second wall 3b, and one third wall 3c are connected to the storage body 9 of each bed 2 across the plurality of beds 2. Note that pillars the height of one bed 2 may be attached to the floor board 8, and the beds 2 may be configured as separate units. The bed set 1 may also be configured by stacking the beds 2 vertically. In this case, the second wall 3b, the third wall 3c, and the first wall 3a may be replaced by separate first walls, second walls, and third walls that are separated for each bed 2.

[0021] In the bed 2b, the storage body 9 and the bed plate 8 are divided into multiple pieces in the longitudinal direction. In this embodiment, the storage body 9 has a first storage body 9c arranged on the head side of the longitudinal direction of the bedding 4, and a second storage body 9d arranged on the foot side of the longitudinal direction of the bedding 4. The bed plate 8 has a first storage body 8a arranged on the head side of the longitudinal direction of the bedding 4, and a second storage body 8b arranged on the foot side of the longitudinal direction of the bedding 4. In addition, each of the divided first storage body 8a and second storage body 8b is rotatably supported with respect to the first storage body 9c and second storage body 9d via a support body 19. In this embodiment, a first support body 19a is provided between the first storage body 8a and the first storage body 9c, and a second support body 19b is provided between the second storage body 8b and the second storage body 9d.

[0022] According to the configuration of the present disclosure, the floor board 8 is divided into multiple pieces in the longitudinal direction, and therefore, when opening the floor board 8, only some of the divided pieces of the floor board 8 can be moved to open the floor board 8 relative to the storage body 9. When flipping up the floor board 8 and storing items in the space inside the storage body 9, there is no need to flip up the entire floor board 8, so the user does not need to lift up the entire floor board 8, and this reduces the burden on the user.

[0023] In this embodiment, the storage body 9 has a sidewall 9e common to the first storage body 9c and the second storage body 9d at both ends in the width direction of the bed 2b. That is, the sidewall 9b includes a sidewall 9e extending in the longitudinal direction at both ends in the width direction of the bed 2b and a sidewall 9f extending in the width direction at both ends in the longitudinal direction of the bed 2b. The sidewall 9b also includes a partition plate 9g disposed between the first storage body 9c and the second storage body 9d. The partition plate 9g is disposed in the middle of the common sidewall 9e in the longitudinal direction, and the space surrounded by the common sidewall 9e and the sidewalls 9f at both ends in the longitudinal direction of the bed 2b is divided by the partition plate 9g, thereby dividing the storage body 9 into the first storage body 9c and the second storage body 9d.

[0024] In the bed 2b, the support body 19 has a damper member 12 provided between the storage body 9 and the floorboard 8. The damper member 12 is provided between the storage body 9 and the floorboard 8 in each of the multiple storage bodies 9 and floorboards 8 that are divided into multiple sections in the longitudinal direction of the bedding 4. Of the damper members 12, the first support body 19a between the first storage body 9c and the first floorboard 8a in FIG. 3 has a first damper member 12a, and the second support body 19b between the second storage body 9d and the second floorboard 8b has a second damper member 12b. Because the support body 19 is provided between the storage body 9 and the floorboard 8 and has the damper member 12, when the floorboard 8 is pressed against the storage body 9 in a closing direction, the damper member 12 displaces the floorboard 8 while generating a resistance force in the opposite direction to the pressing direction. In other words, when the floorboard 8 is pressed, the damper member 12 displaces the floorboard 8 in the pressing direction while absorbing the kinetic energy of the floorboard 8 imparted by the pressing force. As a result, the damper member 12 acts as a resistance to the movement of the floorboard 8, reducing the speed of the floorboard 8 moving toward the storage body 9.

[0025] Furthermore, the damper member 12 has a spring inside as an elastic member. The spring of the damper member 12 urges the floor board 8 toward the open state. Therefore, when the floor board 8 is opened, the urging force of the spring assists in lifting the floor board 8. Furthermore, because the support body 19 has the damper member 12, it is possible to prevent the durability of the contact portion between the floor board 8 and the storage body 9 from being affected when the closing operation of the floor board 8 is performed repeatedly.

[0026] 4 shows a cross-sectional view of the bed 2b in FIG. 2 taken along line IV-IV. The bed board 8 has a regulating member 13 that protrudes upward from an upper surface 8c of the bed board 8 at its outer edge and regulates the position of the bedding 4 placed on the bed board 8. In this embodiment, the regulating member 13 is overlapped from below with the bed board 8 near a widthwise end 8d of the bed board 8 and connected to the bed board 8 at that position. In this embodiment, the regulating member 13 vertically overlaps with the bed board 8 only at a portion of the widthwise direction of the bed board 8. The regulating member 13 extends outward in the widthwise direction from a portion 13a overlapping and connected to the bed board 8 in the vertical direction, bends at a position inside the widthwise direction of a side wall 9e common to the first storage body 9c and the second storage body 9d of the storage body 9, and extends upward from there. Therefore, the regulating member 13 has a portion 13b extending in the width direction and a portion 13c extending in the vertical direction, and is configured such that the cross section along the plane in the width direction and the vertical direction is L-shaped.

[0027] The restricting member 13 is attached to the floorboard 8 so as to cover both widthwise end portions 8d of the floorboard 8. The restricting member 13 is provided on the outer edge of the floorboard 8 in the widthwise direction, and the upper end 13d of the restricting member 13 protrudes above the upper surface 8c of the floorboard 8, so that the restricting member 13 can restrict the position of the bedding 4 placed on the upper surface 8c of the floorboard 8. This makes it possible to prevent the position of the bedding 4 from shifting relative to the floorboard 8 while the user is sleeping, for example.

[0028] The bedding 4 is divided into multiple pieces in the longitudinal direction. In this embodiment, the bedding 4 is also divided into two pieces in the longitudinal direction, corresponding to the bed plate 8 and the storage body 9 being divided into two pieces in the longitudinal direction. Therefore, it is possible to open only some of the bed plates 8 while leaving the bedding 4 corresponding to each of the divided bed plates 8 and storage body 9 placed on the top surface of the bed plates 8. In FIG. 3, only the second bed plate 8b located on the foot side of the bed plates 8 is opened toward the second storage body 9d. In this embodiment, the regulating member 13 is connected to the outer edge of each bed plate 8. Therefore, even if only some of the bed plates 8 in the longitudinal direction are opened toward the storage body 9 and some of the bed plates 8 are tilted in the width direction, the regulating member 13 provided on the corresponding bed plate 8 can regulate the position of the bed plates 4 placed on the opened bed plate 8. This makes it possible to prevent only some of the bed plates 4 from shifting position relative to the bed plates 8 among the multiple bed plates 4 arranged in the longitudinal direction.

[0029] Furthermore, since the upper end 13d of the restricting member 13 protrudes above the upper surface 8c of the floor board 8, a user can grasp the restricting member 13 with their hand when lifting the floor board 8 relative to the storage body 9 to open the floor board 8. Therefore, the floor board 8 can be easily lifted by using the restricting member 13 as a handle. Note that, instead of this embodiment, one or more through holes may be formed in the restricting member 13, and the floor board 8 may be lifted by hooking a finger therethrough.

[0030] The side wall 9b of the storage body 9 has a dust discharge port 14 that penetrates the side wall 9b and connects the storage space S2 to the outside. Fig. 5 shows an enlarged side view of the dust discharge port 14 and lid 15 on the side wall 9b of the storage body 9 of the bed 2b. In this embodiment, the dust discharge port 14 is provided on the side wall 9e. The lower end 14a of the dust discharge port 14 is provided flush with the upper surface 9k of the bottom wall 9a. In this embodiment, the dust discharge ports 14 are provided on the side wall 9e common to the first storage body 9a and the second storage body 9b, at positions around the head end and foot end in the longitudinal direction of the bed 2b.

[0031] Repeatedly putting items in and taking items out of the storage space S2 can cause waste to accumulate inside the storage space S2. In this embodiment, the side wall 9b is provided with a waste discharge port 14 that penetrates the side wall 9b in the width direction of the bed 2b, allowing the user to discharge waste accumulated inside the storage space S2 to the outside of the storage space S2 through the waste discharge port 14. Therefore, by periodically performing cleaning work to discharge waste from the storage space S2 through the waste discharge port 14, the inside of the storage space S2 can be kept clean. Furthermore, because the lower end 14a of the waste discharge port 14 is flush with the upper surface 9k of the bottom wall 9a, the user can easily discharge waste accumulated inside the storage space S2 to the outside of the storage space S2.

[0032] In this embodiment, the dust discharge outlet 14 is formed in the side wall 9e of each of the first storage body 9a and the second storage body 9b, but this is not limited to the above embodiment. The dust discharge outlet 14 may be formed in another location. For example, a dust discharge outlet may be formed in the side wall 9f, and a corresponding dust discharge outlet may be formed in the second wall 3b or the third wall 3c, so that dust within the storage space S2 is discharged through the dust discharge outlet in the side wall 9f and the dust discharge outlet in the second wall 3b or the third wall 3c.

[0033] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the configuration in which the lower end 14a of the waste discharge outlet 14 is flush with the upper surface 9k of the bottom wall 9a has been described, but this configuration is not limited to this. The lower end 14a of the waste discharge outlet 14 does not have to be flush with the upper surface 9k of the bottom wall 9a. If the lower end 14a of the waste discharge outlet 14 is flush with or lower than the upper surface 9k of the bottom wall 9a in the vertical direction, waste can be easily discharged from the storage space S2 through the waste discharge outlet 14. Therefore, the lower end 14a of the waste discharge outlet 14 only needs to be located below the upper surface 9k of the bottom wall 9a in the vertical direction. Furthermore, in order for the waste discharge outlet 14 to communicate with the storage space S2 and discharge waste accumulated inside the storage space S2 to the outside, the waste discharge outlet 14 is formed in the side wall 9b so that the upper end 14b of the waste discharge outlet 14 is located higher than the upper surface 9k of the bottom wall 9a.

[0034] The storage body 9 has a lid 15 that slides along the outer surface 9h of the side wall 9b to open and close the waste discharge port 14. The lid 15 opens and closes the waste discharge port 14 by sliding in the direction D1 in FIG. 5 . Therefore, when the lid 15 is closed, items inside the storage space S2 are prevented from escaping through the waste discharge port 14. For example, if the berth 2b tilts while the ship is sailing, items stored in the storage body 9 may be released through the waste discharge port 14 if the waste discharge port 14 remains connected to the outside. In this embodiment, when the lid 15 is closed, the lid 15 covers the waste discharge port 14, preventing items stored in the storage body 9 from being released through the waste discharge port 14.

[0035] In addition, in this embodiment, the lid 15 is configured to slide to open and close the waste discharge outlet 14, but the configuration is not limited to this. The lid 15 may be rotatably fastened to the side wall 9b. In this case, the lid 15 is rotated by pushing or pulling the lid, thereby opening and closing the waste discharge outlet 14.

[0036] FIG. 6 shows a cross-sectional view taken along line VI-VI in FIG. 2. The bed 2b is equipped with a lock 16 that locks the storage body 9 and the floor board 8 when the bed 2b is closed. FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view of the portion of the bed 2b where the lock 16 is located. The lock 16 is attached to a side wall 9e extending in the longitudinal direction of the storage body 9 on the other side in the width direction. FIG. 6 shows the lock 16 in an unlocked state. The lock 16 is configured to lock the storage body 9 and the floor board 8 when the storage body 9 and the floor board 8 are closed, and to unlock the space between the storage body 9 and the floor board 8 to open the floor board 8 from the storage body 9. The user locks or unlocks the lock 16 by operating the key 17. The lock 16 has a main body 16a and a cylinder 16b. In the state shown in FIG. 6, the cylinder 16b is stored inside the main body 16a while being biased toward the inside of the bed 2b in the width direction.

[0037] In the state shown in Figure 6, the main body 16a of the lock 16 has a base 16c and a protrusion 16d that is located outside the base 16c in the width direction of the bed 2b. In the main body 16a, the protrusion 16d is located radially inward of the base 16c. The main body 16a is configured in a nested manner, and the protrusion 16d is configured to be movable relative to the base 16c. When unlocked, the protrusion 16a protrudes to the other side in the width direction of the bed 2b, i.e., outward in the width direction, and when locked, as described below, it moves to one side in the width direction of the bed 2b, i.e., inward in the width direction, and fits inside the base 16c.

[0038] The cylinder portion 16b is disposed at a position radially inward of the main body portion 16a. In the state shown in Fig. 6, the cylinder portion 16b is configured to be nested within the main body portion 16a, and the cylinder portion 16b is accommodated inside the main body portion 16a. In the state shown in Fig. 6, the cylinder portion 16b is accommodated inside the main body portion 16a in a state where it is biased toward one side in the width direction of the bed 2b, that is, toward the inside.

[0039] The bed plate 8 includes a catch 18 that receives the cylinder portion 16b of the lock 16. The catch 18 is provided at a position corresponding to the cylinder portion 16b of the lock 16. In other words, the catch 18 is provided at the same height as the cylinder portion 16b and on one side of the cylinder portion 16b in the width direction. In this embodiment, the catch 18 is attached so as to protrude downward from the lower surface of the portion 13b extending in the width direction of the regulating member 13. The catch 18 has an insertion opening 18a that penetrates the catch 18 along the width direction of the bed 2b.

[0040] The lock 16 has a plate-shaped mounting seat 16h. The mounting seat 16h is attached to the main body 16a and extends outward in the vertical and longitudinal directions. The mounting seat 16h is connected to the side wall 9b of the storage body 9, and in this embodiment, is connected to the inner side surface in the width direction of the side wall 9e that is common to the first storage body 9c and the second storage body 9d.

[0041] A keyhole 16g is provided on the outer end surface in the width direction of the protruding portion 16d of the main body 16a. The lock 16 can be locked and unlocked by inserting a key 17 into the keyhole 16g and turning the key 17. When locking, the key 17 is inserted into the keyhole 16g and the protruding portion 16d is pushed into the base 16c. When the key 17 is inserted into the keyhole 16g and turned, the lock 16 is locked. Furthermore, when the key 17 is removed from the keyhole 16 while the lock 16 is locked, the locked state of the lock 16 is maintained.

[0042] FIG. 7, like FIG. 6, shows a cross-sectional view of the portion of the bed 2b where the lock 16 is arranged. FIG. 7 shows the state in which the lock 16 is locked. As shown in FIG. 7, when the lock 16 is locked, the protrusion 16d of the main body 16a moves to one side in the width direction of the bed 2b and fits inside the base 16c. At this time, the protrusion 16d is biased toward the outside in the width direction of the bed 2b. In addition, the cylinder portion 16b moves from inside the main body 16a toward the insertion opening 18a of the catch 18. In other words, the cylinder portion 16b moves from the main body 16a to one side in the width direction of the bed 2b. In addition, the insertion opening 18a of the catch 18 is configured to receive the cylinder portion 16b when the cylinder portion 16b moves.

[0043] In the unlocked state shown in FIG. 6, when the key 17 is inserted into the keyhole 16g and the protruding portion 16d of the main body 16a is pushed toward the inside of the width direction of the bed 2b, and the key 17 is turned, the cylinder portion 16b moves toward one side in the width direction, as shown in FIG. 7. When the cylinder portion 16b moves toward one side in the width direction, the cylinder portion 16b is inserted into the insertion opening 18a of the catch 18. At this time, since the bed board 8 includes the catch 18 and the storage body 9 includes the lock 16, the lock 16 and the catch 18 engage with each other, thereby locking the storage body 9 and the bed board 8. After the lock 16 is locked, even if the key 17 is pulled out of the keyhole 16g, the protruding portion 16d remains pushed into the base 16c. Furthermore, the cylinder portion 16b remains protruding toward the inside of the width direction of the bed 2b and inserted into the insertion opening 18a of the catch 18.

[0044] In the state shown in FIG. 7 , the protrusion 16d of the main body 16a is pushed into the base 16c. When the protrusion 16d is pushed into the base 16c, the side surface 16k of the protrusion 16d on which the keyhole 16g is provided is located at the same position as the outer surface 9h of the side wall 9b of the storage body 9, or is located more inward in the width direction than the outer surface 9h. In this embodiment, the side surface 16k of the protrusion 16d is located at the same position as the outer surface 9h of the side wall 9b of the storage body 9 in the width direction of the bed 2b. In this state, even if the key 17 is removed from the keyhole 16, the cylinder portion 16b remains protruding from the main body 16a toward the inner side in the width direction of the bed 2b, so the lock 16 remains locked. Furthermore, the side surface 16k of the protrusion 16d on which the keyhole 16g is provided is maintained at the same position as the outer surface 9h of the side wall 9b of the storage body 9 in the width direction of the bed 2b.

[0045] Furthermore, according to the configuration of the present disclosure, the bed 2b locks the storage body 9 and the floor board 8 in a closed state, so that the user can store items in the space S2 inside the storage body 9 and lock the space between the storage body 9 and the floor board 8, thereby protecting the items stored in the storage space S2 inside the storage body 9 from theft.

[0046] Furthermore, according to the configuration of the present disclosure, the cylinder portion 16b of the lock 16 moves from the main body portion 16a toward the receiving seat 18, and the cylinder portion 16b is inserted into the insertion port 18a of the receiving seat 18 to lock the storage body 9 and the floor board 8, thereby simplifying the configuration of the lock 16.

[0047] Furthermore, according to the configuration of the present disclosure, when the protrusion 16a of the lock 16 is pressed into the base 16c, the side surface 16k of the protrusion 16a on which the keyhole 16g is provided is located at the same position as the outer surface 9h of the side wall 9b of the storage body 9 in the width direction of the bed 2b, or at a position more inward than the outer surface 9h of the side wall 9b of the storage body 9, so that in the locked state, the lock 16 does not protrude outward in the width direction of the bed 2b beyond the outer surface 9h of the side wall 9b of the storage body 9. Because the lock 16 is prevented from protruding outward in the width direction of the bed 2b, the user can use the space around the bed 2b more efficiently.

[0048] Since the sleeper set 1 is intended for use on a ship, the sleeper set 1 is often placed in a narrow space. It is also conceivable that an aisle may be provided around the sleeper set 1 on the ship. In such a case, if the lock 16 protrudes outward in the width direction of the berth 2b beyond the outer surface 9h of the side wall 9b of the storage body 9, a portion of the lock 16 may protrude into the aisle and obstruct a person passing through the aisle. In the present disclosure, in the locked state, the side surface 16k on which the keyhole 16g of the protruding portion 16d is provided is positioned at the same position as the outer surface 9h of the side wall 9b of the storage body 9 or at a position inward in the width direction from the outer surface 9h. This prevents the lock 16 from protruding outward in the width direction of the berth 2b beyond the outer surface 9h of the side wall 9b of the storage body 9. Therefore, when an aisle is provided around the sleeper set 1, the lock 16 does not obstruct a person passing through the aisle, resulting in a user-friendly sleeper set 1.

[0049] In addition, in the present embodiment, a configuration has been described in which inserting the key 17 into the keyhole 16g and rotating the key 17 while the protrusion 16d of the main body 16a is pushed toward the inside of the width direction of the bed 2b causes the cylinder 16b to move toward one side in the width direction. However, this configuration is not limited to the above. Instead of inserting the key 17, a configuration in which the cylinder 16b moves from the main body 16a toward the receiving seat 18 by pushing the protrusion 16d of the main body 16a with a finger may also be used. The cylinder 16b is then inserted into the insertion opening 18a of the receiving seat 18, thereby fixing the storage body 9 and the bed plate 8. While a configuration in which the protrusion 16d of the main body 16a is pushed with a finger to fix the storage body 9 and the bed plate 8 cannot be locked, a separate combination lock that fixes the cylinder 16b under predetermined conditions or a separate lock from the lock 16 may be provided to enable locking.

[0050] In the above embodiment, a configuration has been described in which both the storage body 9 and the floor board 8 are divided into multiple pieces in the longitudinal direction, but this is not limited to the above embodiment. Of the storage body 9 and the floor board 8, only the floor board 8 may be divided into multiple pieces. In this case, the storage space S2 may be formed continuously below the floor board 8 divided into multiple pieces in the longitudinal direction. In other words, the bed 2b may have a single storage body 9 provided throughout the entire longitudinal direction, and only one storage space S2 may be formed inside the storage body 9. Even if the storage body 9 is not divided into multiple pieces in the longitudinal direction, by dividing the floor board 8 into multiple pieces in the longitudinal direction, the floor board 8 can be opened relative to the storage body 9 by moving only some of the divided floor boards.

[0051] In the above embodiment, the storage body 9 and the floor board 8 are both divided into two pieces in the longitudinal direction, but this is not limited to the above embodiment. The storage body 9 and the floor board 8 may be divided into three or more pieces. Furthermore, even if only the floor board 8 of the storage body 9 and the floor board 8 is divided, the floor board 8 may be divided into three or more pieces.
