First Embodiment Figure 1 is a schematic front view showing the configuration of the vehicle 10 of the first embodiment. Figure 2 is a schematic left side view showing a part of the interior of the cabin 12 of the vehicle 10 of the first embodiment. In other words, Figure 2 shows a part of the interior of the cabin 12 as seen from the left side in the vehicle width direction. 【0011】 The vehicle 10 in this embodiment is a truck, and the vehicle 10 is equipped with a cabin (cab) 12. Inside the cabin 12 of the vehicle 10, a plurality of seats 14 are arranged in the width direction of the vehicle at the front. Specifically, a driver's seat 14a and a passenger seat 14b are arranged in the width direction of the vehicle 10 at the front of the cabin 12 of the vehicle 10. 【0012】 Furthermore, within the cabin 12 of the vehicle 10, a sleeping area 16 is provided behind the multiple seats 14. The sleeping area 16 is a platform primarily used for passengers of the vehicle 10 to rest. The sleeping area 16 may also be used as a place to put luggage, etc. 【0013】 A curtain rail 30 (see Figure 2) is provided on the ceiling of the cabin 12 of the vehicle 10, that is, on the ceiling panel 18 that partitions the interior of the cabin 12 of the vehicle 10, with its longitudinal direction aligned with the vehicle width direction and its short direction aligned with the vehicle length direction. 【0014】 Therefore, with respect to the curtain rail 30, its various components, and the various members attached to the curtain rail 30, the vehicle width direction can be rephrased as the longitudinal direction of the curtain rail 30, and the vehicle length direction can be rephrased as the short direction of the curtain rail 30. The ceiling panel 18 is, for example, a headlining. 【0015】 Furthermore, the curtain rail 30 is located above the boundary between the multiple seats 14 and the sleeping berth 16 in the length direction of the vehicle, and multiple runners 20 for attaching curtains 24 are attached to the rail body 32 (see Figure 3), which will be described later, in the width direction of the vehicle. A detailed explanation is omitted, but each runner 20 is equipped with a roller and a shaft, etc., and is supported by the rail body 32 so as to be movable in the width direction of the vehicle. 【0016】 Further, a hook 22 is suspended from each runner 20, and one or more curtains 24 can be deployed and folded in the vehicle width direction. When each curtain 24 is deployed, the interior of the cabin 12 of the vehicle 10 is partitioned into a space 12a on the seat 14 side and a space 12b on the bunk bed portion 16 side. 【0017】 FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram showing a detailed configuration of the curtain rail 30 of the first embodiment. Further, FIG. 3 shows the periphery of the curtain rail 30 as viewed from the left side in the vehicle width direction, and the curtain rail 30 and its various components shown in FIG. 3 extend over substantially the entire vehicle width in the shape as viewed from the end face in the vehicle width direction within the cabin 12. 【0018】 The curtain rail 30 includes a rail body 32, a pair of support portions 34 (first support portion 34a, second support portion 34b), a pair of lighting portions 46 (first lighting portion 46a, second lighting portion 46b), and the like. 【0019】 The rail body 32 is a member having a square pipe shape extending in the vehicle width direction, and the lower side near the center in the vehicle length direction is open. A runner 20 for attaching the curtain 24 can be attached to the rail body 32. 【0020】 The pair of support portions 34 sandwich the rail body 32 in the vehicle length direction and are integrally formed with the rail body 32. Specifically, the rail body 32 is sandwiched between a first support portion 34a disposed on the space 12a side and a second support portion 34b disposed on the space 12b side. 【0021】 The first support portion 34a supports the first lighting portion 46a, and the second support portion 34b supports the second lighting portion 46b. Each lighting portion 46 includes at least a light source and emits light. As the lighting portion 46, for example, an LED (Light Emitting Diode) tape light or the like is used. 【0022】 Each support portion 34 includes a connecting portion 36, a housing portion 38, a bracket portion 44, and the like, which are integrally formed. The connecting portion 36 extends in the vehicle length direction outside the rail body 32 in the vehicle length direction and connects the housing portion 38 and the rail body 32. 【0023】 The accommodating portion 38 is formed in a groove shape with an open lower side, slightly extends upward, and curves toward the rail body 32 side. The bracket portion 44 extends from the side opposite to the connecting portion 36 side of the accommodating portion 38 in a direction away from the accommodating portion 38 in the vehicle length direction. Further, a fixture (not shown) such as a bolt is inserted through the bracket portion 44. 【0024】 The accommodating portion 38 includes a placement portion 40, an irradiation port 42, etc. The placement portion 40 is provided on the inner surface 38s of the accommodating portion 38 and places the lighting portion 46. Specifically, the placement portion 40 of the first support portion 34a places the first lighting portion 46a, and the placement portion 40 of the second support portion 34b places the second lighting portion 46b. The placement portion 40 is, for example, a groove. The irradiation port 42 is an opening of the accommodating portion 38. 【0025】 The placement portion 40 is provided facing the reflection surface 38r at a location facing the reflection surface 38r of the inner surface 38s of the accommodating portion 38. The reflection surface 38r of the inner surface 38s of the accommodating portion 38 is a surface facing the irradiation port 42. <了 【0026】 In the first embodiment, since the curved surface 38c is used as the reflection surface 38r, specifically, the placement portion 40 is provided facing the curved surface 38c at a location facing the curved surface 38c of the inner surface 3Ss of the accommodating portion 38. Further, the placement portion 40 places the lighting portion 46 facing the reflection surface 38r. 【0027】 According to the curtain rail 30 of the first embodiment, the illumination light L1 emitted from each lighting unit 46 is reflected by the reflective surface 38r of the housing unit 38, and the reflected light L2 (indirect light) is led out from the illumination opening 42. In other words, according to the curtain rail 30 of the first embodiment, both sides of the rail body 32, that is, both sides of space 12a and space 12b, can be illuminated with the reflected light L2 (indirect light). Furthermore, according to the curtain rail 30 of the first embodiment, even when the curtain 24 is extended, both sides of the rail body 32 can be illuminated with the reflected light L2 (indirect light), improving convenience. In addition, according to the curtain rail 30 of the first embodiment, costs can be reduced compared to installing two room lamps to illuminate space 12a and space 12b. 【0028】 2. Second Embodiment In the second embodiment, the configuration of the support portion 34 of the curtain rail 30 is changed, otherwise it is the same as the first embodiment. Therefore, explanations that overlap with the first embodiment may be omitted. 【0029】 Figure 4 is a schematic diagram showing the detailed configuration of the curtain rail 30 in the second embodiment. Figure 4 also shows the area around the curtain rail 30 as viewed from the left side in the vehicle width direction. The curtain rail 30 and its various components shown in Figure 4 extend within the cabin 12 in a shape as viewed from the end face in the vehicle width direction, covering almost the entire area in the vehicle width direction. 【0030】 In the second embodiment, the housing section 38 is formed in the shape of a rectangular groove with an opening on the lower side. In the second embodiment, the arrangement section 40 is located opposite the illumination port 42 and is positioned facing the illumination port 42. The arrangement section 40 also accommodates an illumination unit 46 that faces the illumination port 42. 【0031】 In the curtain rail 30 of the second embodiment, the illumination light L1 (direct light) emitted from each lighting unit 46 is led out from the illumination opening 42. In other words, in the curtain rail 30 of the second embodiment, both sides of the rail body 32, that is, both sides of space 12a and space 12b, can be illuminated with each illumination light L1 (direct light). Furthermore, in the curtain rail 30 of the second embodiment, even when the curtain 24 is extended, both sides of the rail body 32 can be illuminated with the illumination light L1 (direct light), improving convenience. 【0032】 3. Third Embodiment In the third embodiment, the configuration of the support portion 34 of the curtain rail 30 is changed, otherwise it is the same as the first embodiment. Therefore, explanations that overlap with the first embodiment may be omitted. 【0033】 Figure 5 is a schematic diagram showing the detailed configuration of the curtain rail 30 of the third embodiment. Figure 5 also shows the area around the curtain rail 30 as viewed from the left side in the vehicle width direction. The curtain rail 30 and its various components shown in Figure 5 extend within the cabin 12 in a shape as viewed from the end face in the vehicle width direction, covering almost the entire area in the vehicle width direction. 【0034】 In the third embodiment, the housing section 38 is formed in a groove shape with an opening on the lower side, extends slightly upward, and bends toward the rail body 32. In the third embodiment, the arrangement section 40 is positioned opposite both the reflective surface 38r on the inner surface 38s of the housing section 38 and the illumination port 42, and is oriented toward the position between the reflective surface 38r and the illumination port 42. The arrangement section 40 also positions the illumination section 46 toward the position between the reflective surface 38r on the inner surface 38s of the housing section 38 and the illumination port 42. 【0035】 In the third embodiment, since the reflective surface 38r is an inclined surface 38k located between the rail body 32 and the illumination port 42 in the vehicle length direction, the arrangement section 40 is specifically provided at a location facing both the inclined surface 38k on the inner surface 38s of the housing section 38 and the illumination port 42, and facing the position between the inclined surface 38k and the illumination port 42. The arrangement section 40 also arranges an illumination unit 46 facing the position between the inclined surface 38k and the illumination port 42. 【0036】 In the third embodiment of the curtain rail 30, a portion of the illumination light L1 emitted from each lighting unit 46 is led out from the illumination port 42 as reflected light L2 (indirect light), and the remaining illumination light L1 (direct light) is led out from the illumination port 42. In other words, in the third embodiment of the curtain rail 30, both sides of the rail body 32, that is, both sides of space 12a and space 12b, can be illuminated with both illumination light L1 (direct light) and reflected light L2 (indirect light). Furthermore, in the third embodiment of the curtain rail 30, even when the curtain 24 is extended, both sides of the rail body 32 can be illuminated with both illumination light L1 (direct light) and reflected light L2 (indirect light), improving convenience. 【0037】 This concludes the description of this embodiment. However, the specific configuration shown in this embodiment is merely an example, and the embodiments of the present invention are not limited to the configuration shown in this embodiment. 【0038】 The configurations of the curtain rail 30 in each of the above embodiments may be combined. For example, the first support portion 34a may be configured so that the irradiated light L1 is led out from the irradiation port 42, and the second support portion 34b may be configured so that the reflected light L2 is led out from the irradiation port 42. 【0039】 Furthermore, in each of the above embodiments, the color of the light L1 emitted by the first illumination unit 46a and the second illumination unit 46b may be different. For example, the first illumination unit 46a may emit daylight white light, and the second illumination unit 46b may emit warm white light. 【0040】 Furthermore, with respect to the support portion 34 of the curtain rail 30 in each of the above embodiments, the configuration is not particularly limited as long as the light emitted from the lighting unit 46 is led out from the illumination port 42 as irradiated light L1 (direct light) and / or reflected light L2 (indirect light). 【0041】 Furthermore, the configuration of the curtain rail 30 in each of the above embodiments can be applied to vehicles other than trucks. The configuration of the curtain rail 30 in each of the above embodiments can also be applied to vehicles other than trucks, and to equipment in various facilities, etc. [Explanation of symbols] 【0042】 10 vehicles 12 cabins 18 Ceiling board 20 Runners 24 Curtains 30 Curtain rails 32 Rail Body 34 Support part 34a 1st support part 34b Second support part 46 Lighting Section 46a 1st lighting section 46b Second Lighting Section
