Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a tented bed in which a tent is placed on a bed having an insulating structure. [Background technology]

[0002] There are cases where people are forced to live in evacuation shelters due to the occurrence of a disaster. Although the problems associated with living in evacuation shelters are gradually being resolved with each disaster, there are still many issues. In particular, when energy supplies are cut off or infrastructure collapses, people are forced to live in extremely harsh conditions in evacuation shelters.

[0003] Under these circumstances, one example of a bed that can be easily assembled at a shelter is known as one way to make life at a shelter more comfortable. For example, the cardboard bed shown in Patent Document 1 is made by arranging a number of components formed by joining together three or more layers of cardboard sheets, each component having slits in multiple locations along the length of the sheets, placing a reinforcing plate on the top surface, and placing a top plate on the top surface of the reinforcing plate. The top plate is fixed by inserting multiple slits into the slits in the width direction of the components.

[0004] Furthermore, as a technology for achieving a good night's sleep, for example, the technology shown in Patent Document 2 has been disclosed. The technology shown in Patent Document 2 involves constructing a tent-like framework made of a strong reinforcing frame on bedding such as a bed, with a height that allows a person to sit upright, providing a non-flammable, heat-insulating, waterproof cover that can block light, and providing lighting fixtures, an air supply, and a television fixing plate inside the device, with one side partially openable. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0005] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Publication No. 2023-182843 [Patent Document 2] Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 10-117894 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0006] However, the cardboard beds shown in Patent Document 1 have the problem that they do not provide private space when considering long periods of evacuation, which can lead to stress building up for disaster victims.

[0007] Furthermore, while the disaster prevention sleep device shown in Patent Document 2 can secure a private space, the framework and tabletop are large, making it difficult to provide to many disaster victims. Furthermore, because the cold air from the floor comes into direct contact with the bed, there are concerns about hypothermia, especially in winter shelters, and the direct transmission of footsteps and vibrations from walking inside the shelter makes it difficult to sleep soundly.

[0008] The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and aims to provide a tented bed that can be easily assembled, has a bed section with sufficient heat insulation, and can be fitted with a tent that can secure a private space, thereby ensuring a space where people can live comfortably in evacuation shelters. [Means for solving the problem]

[0009] The tented bed of the present invention comprises a bed section in which a sleeping surface is placed at a predetermined height from the floor surface and an insulating structure including at least one hollow layer is formed between the floor surface and the sleeping surface, and a tent section placed on top of the bed section and having an opening through which people can enter and exit.

[0010] As described above, the tent-equipped bed of the present invention, in which the sleeping surface is positioned at a predetermined height above the floor, reduces the impact on the throat, trachea, lungs, etc. caused by dust and debris floating near the ground, which increases significantly during disasters, and prevents the direct transmission of footsteps and vibrations from pedestrians in the evacuation shelter, allowing for a comfortable evacuation experience. Furthermore, an insulating structure including at least one hollow layer is formed between the floor and sleeping surface, blocking cold air from the floor and preventing extreme chills and hypothermia, even in cold weather evacuation shelters, allowing for a comfortable evacuation experience. Furthermore, a tent section with an opening that allows people to enter and exit is placed on top of the bed section, ensuring a private space and allowing for a comfortable evacuation experience. Additionally, by blocking cold air from the ground and storing heat generated by the evacuees' bodies within the tent section, a comfortable temperature can be maintained within the tent section.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0012] (First embodiment of the present invention) A tent-equipped bed according to this embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 6. While carrying out numerous relief efforts in various disaster-stricken areas, the inventors have come to understand the urgent need to improve the sleeping environment, especially in cold, snowy regions with low temperatures. Specifically, the goal is to prevent hypothermia. For example, in winter in Tohoku and Hokkaido, evacuees living in large facilities such as gymnasiums face the risk of losing their lives due to hypothermia. Furthermore, during disasters, dust and debris tend to be more likely to be dispersed than usual, and many evacuees have reported experiencing respiratory problems while sleeping. To address these issues based on their own experiences, the inventors developed the tent-equipped bed described below, and demonstration experiments have demonstrated its extremely usefulness in evacuation shelters.

[0013] Fig. 1 is an overall perspective view of a tent bed according to this embodiment, and Fig. 2 is an exploded perspective view of the tent bed according to this embodiment. The tent bed 1 comprises a bed section 2 which serves as a living area for the user, and a tent section 3 which is placed on the bed section 2 to ensure a living space F for the user. The bed section 2 comprises a support section 21 which is formed, for example, by combining a cardboard box or cardboard sheet, to ensure sufficient width and strength to support the body of the user at least when in a lying position, and a top plate 22 which is placed on the support section 21 and has a flat surface which is at least the same size as or larger than the size of the top surface of the support section 21.

[0014] In this embodiment, the support unit 21 is formed by connecting multiple individual support units 23, each having a rectangular outer shell formed by assembling cardboard sheets. Specifically, for example, each individual support unit 23 includes a side portion 23a formed in a cylindrical shape so that its cross section in the height direction is rectangular, and a top portion 23b formed by folding inner and outer flaps inward or by sliding and opening flaps folded inward during assembling of the cardboard sheets (FIG. 3, described later, shows the former structure). The support unit 21 is formed by arranging multiple individual support units 23 (e.g., 65 cm length × 45 cm width × 35 cm height) and connecting adjacent units. For example, by arranging three individual support units 23 vertically and two horizontally, the support unit 21 has overall dimensions of 195 cm length × 90 cm width × 35 cm height, allowing an adult to lie down comfortably.

[0015] Adjacent individual support parts 23 may be firmly connected with adhesive such as tape or glue, or with hook-and-loop fasteners, or may simply be arranged so that adjacent surfaces come into contact. Also, the individual support parts 23 may be connected by arranging only the side surfaces 23a side by side, without the top surfaces 23b.

[0016] Each individual support part 23 is configured to contain one or more containers 24 inside. FIG. 3 is a diagram showing the structure of the individual support parts in the bed part of the tent-equipped bed according to this embodiment. As shown in FIG. 3, the containers 24 contained in the individual support parts 23 can contain small items such as tools, accessories, change of clothes, and valuables necessary for the life of a disaster victim, and are box-shaped to allow for easy access. The size of the containers 24 is, for example, 32 cm long x 22 cm wide x 35 cm high, and four containers 24 can be fitted snugly into one individual support part 23.

[0017] By fitting these four containers 24 into the individual support section 23, the side surface 23a of the individual support section 23 and the side surface of the container 24 form two layers on the side of the individual support section 23, thereby increasing the strength in the height direction. Also, a partition surface 24a is formed that divides the internal space of the individual support section 23 at the vertical center and the horizontal center, making it possible to more firmly support weight in the height direction. In addition, as various items are stored in the internal space of the individual support section 23, the weight of the container 24 increases, and as a result, the lateral weight on the individual support section 23 increases, making it possible to reduce lateral movement or displacement of the bed section 2 even when lateral shaking occurs, for example, due to aftershocks.

[0018] 3 shows a structure in which the housing body 24 is taken in and out through an opening in the top surface 23b of the individual support part 23, but a structure in which an opening is provided in the side surface 23a to make it a drawer type so that the housing body 24 can be taken in and out may also be used. In this case, the opening in the side surface 23a can be formed on any surface exposed to the outside of the bed part 2 to facilitate taking in and out.

[0019] In addition, in the above, the support portion 21 is formed by arranging three individual support portions 23 vertically and two horizontally, but this is not limiting, and any number of individual support portions 23 of any size may be appropriately combined to form a support portion 21 appropriate for the size of the bed portion 2. Furthermore, it is desirable that all of the individual support portions 23 be the same size, but this is not a limitation.

[0020] Furthermore, the number of containers 24 stored in the individual support portion 23 is not limited to four as shown in Figure 3 and may be designed as appropriate, but it is desirable that the size be such that they fit snugly into the individual support portion 23.

[0021] As described above, in the tent-equipped bed 1 according to this embodiment, the individual support parts 23 are configured with side parts 23a and top parts 23b, but do not have a bottom part. If the bed were configured with a bottom part, the strength in the height direction would be weakened at the bend where the bottom part and side parts 23a join, and the shape of the individual support parts 23 would be distorted. Furthermore, if a bottom part were included, the cardboard sheet would be subject to some bending (bending of the surface itself or bending of the center caused by fastening the flaps with packing tape, etc.), making it difficult to stably install each individual support part 23 upright. In other words, the bed part 2 would not be able to maintain stability, and would wobble, compromising safety and comfort.

[0022] Therefore, in the tent-equipped bed 1 according to this embodiment, the individual support members 23 do not have bottom surfaces, and the cross sections of the side surfaces 23a are supported so that they come into contact with the ground. FIG. 4 is a bottom view of the bed portion 2 of the tent-equipped bed according to this embodiment, as seen from below. Because the individual support members 23 are formed by assembling cardboard sheets, the cross sections of each rectangular parallelepiped have a three-layer structure with at least two liner layers 23c and a corrugated core 23d laminated between these two liner layers 23c. As shown in FIG. 4, the contact surface with the ground has this three-layer structure. More specifically, the surface perpendicular to the wave surface of the core 23d and aligned with the wave amplitude direction of the core 23d is positioned so that it comes into contact with the ground. This ensures sufficient strength in the height direction while increasing the contact area with the ground compared to when the cross section is the wave surface of the core 23d, thereby reducing lateral displacement of the bed portion 2.

[0023] While it is possible to ensure strength by stacking the cores 23d as described above, even greater strength can be achieved by using resin for the cardboard sheets. In this case, by providing ribs (flat ribs that are arranged perpendicular to the two liners 23c along the height direction of the bed section 2 and join each liner 23c) that separate the hollow layer between the two liners 23c instead of the cores 23d, it is possible to increase the strength in the height direction while increasing the contact surface with the ground.

[0024] 1 and 2, a top plate 22 is placed on the upper surface of the support section 21. The top plate 22 has a plane the same size as the upper surface of the support section 21, i.e., in the above example, a size of at least 195 cm long and 90 cm wide, and is placed on the support section 21 in one or more layers. The presence of this top plate 22 allows the upper surfaces of the multiple parallel individual support sections 23 to be configured as a single surface, thereby improving the comfort of the user. Furthermore, if the top plate 22 is made of a cardboard sheet, in addition to the three layers described above, the hollow air layer formed by the core 23d can block cold air from the floor, so the high insulation effect can prevent chills and hypothermia while sleeping, even in the cold winter months.

[0025] If the individual support part 23 has a structure having an upper surface part 23b, this upper surface part 23b can also exhibit a high heat insulating effect in addition to the top plate 22. Furthermore, if the container 24 is fitted inside the individual support part 23, an even greater heat insulating effect can be achieved by forming this container 24 from a cardboard box.

[0026] The tent section 3 is placed on the bed section 2, which is composed of the support section 21 and the top plate 22. FIG. 5 is a diagram showing the structure of the inner tent of the tent section in the tent bed according to this embodiment, FIG. 6 is a diagram showing the structure of the flysheet in the tent bed according to this embodiment, and FIG. 7 is a diagram showing the cross-sectional structure of the contact portion between the inner tent and the top plate in the tent bed according to this embodiment. The tent section 3 has a double structure, with the flysheet 32 ​​shown in FIG. 6 covering the surface of the inner tent 31 shown in FIG. 5. The inner tent 31 is fixed along a recess R in the framework formed by the intersection of two curved frames 33, allowing the sheet to extend and form a living space F. In the configuration shown in FIG. 5, the inner tent 31 forms the top 34 and side sections 35 of the tent section 3, and also serves as the bottom 36. In other words, there is no need to prepare a separate floor for the tent section 3.

[0027] The inner tent 31 may be configured to form only the top 34 and side 35 of the tent section 3, with the bottom 36 being a separate floor sheet.

[0028] Due to the above-described structure, the inner tent 31 appears rectangular when viewed from above due to the structure of the frame 33. An opening 38 for users to enter and exit is formed at a location corresponding to one of the sides of this rectangle. This opening 38 can be opened and closed with a zipper, as shown in FIG. 5, for example. As described above, when the bed section 2 is rectangular when viewed from above, such as 195 cm long and 90 cm wide, it is desirable to form the opening 38 on the long side. This facilitates user entry and exit, and also makes it easier for wheelchair users to transfer from their wheelchair to the bed section 2. On the other hand, if the opening 38 is formed on the short side, users must enter and exit from the head or foot side, which is somewhat inconvenient, but it eliminates the need for a space between adjacent tent-equipped beds 1 lined up on the long side, thereby enabling more effective use of the space in the evacuation shelter. In other words, it is desirable to have a configuration in which the direction of the opening 38 can be selected depending on the size of the evacuation shelter and the number of evacuees.

[0029] The inner tent 31 is a sheet made of a flexible material and is placed on the upper surface of the bed section 2, i.e., in contact with the outer edge of the flat portion of the top plate 22. In other words, the size of the bottom 36 of the inner tent 31 is larger than the size of the flat portion of the top plate 22. When the inner tent 31 is placed with the bottom 36 of the inner tent 31 in contact with the outer edge of the flat portion of the top plate 22, as shown in FIG. 7 , the weight of the frame 33 and the inner tent 31 causes the outer edge of the top plate 22 to dig into the sheet of the bottom 36, and the sheet is then tightly fixed to the outer edge of the flat portion of the top plate 22. In other words, the inner tent 31 can be stably fixed to the bed section 2. In particular, by placing the four corners of the flat portion of the top plate 22 so that they dig into the sheet of the bottom 36 of the inner tent 31, the tent section 3 can be placed more firmly on the bed section 2.

[0030] Furthermore, if the inner tent 31 does not have a bottom 36, i.e., is formed only from the top 34 and side portions 35, the inner tent 31 can be stably installed on the bed portion 2 by placing the outer edge (especially the four corners) of the flat portion of the top plate 22 so that it digs into the sheet of the side portions 35 of the inner tent 31.

[0031] The inner tent 31 and the frame 33 are covered with a fly sheet 32. Finally, by covering the living space F with the fly sheet 32, it is possible to block views from outside and ensure privacy. Furthermore, by physically separating the living space F from the outside, it is possible to prevent the living space F from being cooled by cold air from outside. In addition, by isolating the living space F from the outside, it is possible to store heat generated by occupants in the living space F within the living space F, thereby maintaining a warm and comfortable temperature within the living space F. A similar opening 39 is formed in the fly sheet 32 ​​at a position corresponding to the position of the opening 38 in the inner tent 31. The opening 39 in the fly sheet 32 ​​can also be opened and closed with a zipper, just like the inner tent 31.

[0032] In addition, to prevent cold air from entering the living space F from the outside, it is desirable that the fly sheet 32 ​​be long enough to cover at least the entire periphery of the boundary between the bed section 2 and the tent section 3, i.e., the area where the top plate 22 is installed, as shown in Figure 1.

[0033] The bottom 36 of the tent section 3 may be formed of a mattress on which the user can sleep.

[0034] Furthermore, the individual support members 23 constituting the bed section 2 may be formed from materials other than cardboard sheets, such as resin cardboard sheets or hollow resin sheets. It is desirable for these resin sheets to be made of a water-resistant material. In other words, if there is a lack of space in the evacuation shelter, people may be forced to live outdoors. In such cases, by forming the bed section 2 from a water-resistant material while using the tent section 3 to protect against rain and wind, it is possible to prevent the bed section 2 from becoming waterlogged and losing its strength.

[0035] Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 8, for example, fixing members 41 may be provided on the outside of the fly sheet 32 ​​at positions corresponding to the frame 33, and weights 40 may be hung from these fixing members 41 to more stably fix the tent section 3 to the bed section 2. The fixed weights 40 may be something like a water bag, or a container 24 that is likely to be frequently taken in and out of the individual support parts 23. They may also be something that contains water, food, and other daily necessities distributed at evacuation shelters. This prevents the tent section 3 from being blown away by the wind and enables it to be firmly fixed to the bed section 2, especially when people are forced to live outdoors as an evacuee.

[0036] As described above, the tent-equipped bed 1 according to this embodiment includes a bed section 2 with a sleeping surface positioned at a predetermined height above the floor, an insulating structure including at least one hollow layer between the sleeping surface and the bed section, and a tent section 3 placed on top of the bed section 2 and having openings 38 and 39 through which people can enter and exit. This reduces the impact on the throat, trachea, lungs, etc., caused by inhalation of dust and debris floating near the ground, which increases significantly during disasters, making it possible to realize a comfortable evacuation experience. It also blocks cold air from the floor, preventing extreme chills and hypothermia, especially during cold seasons, thereby maintaining health and enabling a comfortable evacuation experience. Furthermore, the tent section 3 provides a private space, enabling a comfortable evacuation experience. Additionally, by blocking cold air from the ground and storing heat generated by the evacuees' bodies within the tent section, a comfortable temperature can be maintained within the tent section.

[0037] In addition, the bed section 2 is formed by combining cardboard sheets, and the cardboard sheets have a three-layer structure with a wavy core 23d between at least two layers of liners 23c, and the contact surface with the ground on which the bed section 2 is placed has a cross section of the three-layer structure and a cross section perpendicular to the wave surface of the core 23d.This ensures sufficient strength in the vertical direction, while increasing the contact area with the ground compared to when the cross section is the wave surface of the core 23d, and reducing lateral displacement of the bed section 2.

[0038] Furthermore, the tent section 3 has multiple frames 33 and a flexible inner tent 31 fixed to the frames 33, and the tent section 3 is placed in close contact with the bed section 2 with the inner tent 31 abutting against the outer edge of the upper surface of the bed section 2. Therefore, the weight of the tent section 3 causes the outer edge of the upper surface of the bed section 2 to bite into the inner tent 31, and simply by placing the tent section 3 on top of the bed section 2, the two can be firmly connected and fixed.

[0039] Furthermore, since the upper surface of the bed section 2 is formed in a rectangular shape and the flexible inner tent 31 is attached to the outer edge including the four corners of the rectangle, it is possible to more firmly connect and fix the bed section 2 and the tent section 3.

[0040] Furthermore, the tent section 3 has multiple frames 33, a flexible inner tent 31 fixed to the frames 33, and a fly sheet 32 ​​covering the outside of the inner tent 31, and the fly sheet 32 ​​is long enough to cover at least the entire periphery of the boundary between the bed section 2 and the tent section 3, thereby minimizing the intrusion of cold air from outside and keeping the temperature of the living space F comfortable using the heat generated by the user.

[0041] Furthermore, a container 24 of a size that can accommodate the entire unit is stored in the internal space of the cardboard sheet and / or cardboard box that forms the bed portion 2, so that items necessary for evacuation life can be organized and stored inside the bed portion 2, making effective use of the limited space in the evacuation shelter, and the strength of the bed portion 2 is reinforced by the container 24, allowing it to maintain stable strength.

[0042] (Second embodiment of the present invention) The tent-equipped bed according to this embodiment will be described with reference to Figures 9 and 10. The tent-equipped bed 1 according to this embodiment can be configured to connect multiple tent-equipped beds 1 according to the first embodiment to create a spacious living space F that can be shared by family members or the like. Note that descriptions of this embodiment that overlap with the first embodiment will be omitted.

[0043] Fig. 9 is a first diagram showing the structure of a tent-equipped bed according to this embodiment as seen from above. In Fig. 9, a first tent-equipped bed 1a and a second tent-equipped bed 1b are connected side by side and connected to each other on the left and right. The bed section 2a of the first tent-equipped bed 1a is connected to the bed section 2b of the second tent-equipped bed 1b by bringing their long sides into contact with or adjacent to each other. If the connection is by contact, it is desirable to use a strong adhesive such as tape or glue, or a hook-and-loop fastener, for example, to firmly connect the two.

[0044] Furthermore, the tent section 3a of the first tent-equipped bed 1a has openings 38, 39 formed on the long side S1 that is not connected to the second tent-equipped bed 1b, through which users can enter and exit. Also, openings 38, 39 (hereinafter referred to as movement openings 380, 390) through which users can enter and exit are formed on the long side S2 that is connected to the second tent-equipped bed 1b. Similarly, the tent section 3b of the second tent-equipped bed 1b has openings 38, 39 formed on the long side S3 that is not connected to the first tent-equipped bed 1a, through which users can enter and exit, and also has movement openings 380, 390 on the long side S4 that is connected to the first tent-equipped bed 1a, through which users can enter and exit.

[0045] By forming these access points 380, 390, it becomes possible to move from the first tent-equipped bed 1a to the second tent-equipped bed 1b and vice versa on the same surface. In other words, when a family member moves between the adjacent first tent-equipped bed 1a and second tent-equipped bed 1b, for example, it becomes possible to move around like indoors without having to go to the floor or ground to put on shoes or slippers.

[0046] Although Fig. 9 shows a structure in which openings 38, 39 are formed on both the long side S1 and the long side S3, it is also possible to have a structure in which at least one opening 38, 39 is formed on either the long side S1 or the long side S3. Specifically, for example, in Fig. 9, the tent section 3b of the second tented bed 1b may have openings 38, 39 only on the long side S3.

[0047] Also, while Figure 9 shows a configuration in which two tented beds 1 are connected, three or more may be connected, in which case access openings 380, 390 may be formed on the side where adjacent connected tented beds 1 come into contact. In this case, the side on which access openings 380, 390 are formed may be either the long side or the short side. In addition to these access openings 380, 390, at least one opening 38, 39 is provided in any of the connected tented beds 1.

[0048] Fig. 10 is a second diagram showing the structure of the tent-equipped bed according to this embodiment as seen from above. In Fig. 10, when multiple tent-equipped beds 1 are connected as in Fig. 9, a single fly sheet 32 ​​is formed in common for the first tent-equipped bed 1a and the second tent-equipped bed 1b. In other words, users can move between the tent-equipped beds 1 through a movement opening 380 formed in the inner tent 31, and only one opening 39 is formed in the fly sheet 32. This creates a sense of unity in the living space F where, for example, a family spends time, improves the heat retention effect within the living space F due to the body heat of multiple people, and simplifies the work of assembling and disassembling the tent-equipped bed 1.

[0049] In this way, in the tent-equipped bed 1 according to this embodiment, the bed section 2a of the first tent-equipped bed 1a and the bed section 2b of the second tent-equipped bed 1b can be connected by contacting any one side of the respective bed sections 2a and 2b, and the tent sections 3a and 3b of the first tent-equipped bed 1a and the second tent-equipped bed 1b that correspond to the contacting sides are provided with movement openings 380 and 390 that allow people to enter and exit, and at least one opening 38 and 39 is provided in the tent sections 3a and 3b of the first tent-equipped bed 1a and / or the second tent-equipped bed 1b separately from the movement openings 380 and 390, so that movement between tent-equipped beds 1 can be done on the same plane as if indoors, and a living space F can be created that can be shared by families and the like.
