Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a trailer house-type mobile clinic.

Background Art

[0002] Mobile clinic facilities have been conventionally known. Patent Document 1 utilizes a container as a medical examination room. Such an invention has the advantage that when there are no operable hospitals or clinics in disaster-stricken areas, it is possible to provide treatment, examination and medical care on site for sick and injured people who have difficulty moving due to the disaster. However, containers are generally standardized in fixed sizes of 20, 40, and 45 feet, and even the shortest container has a length of slightly more than 6 meters. In addition, container trailers for transporting containers have an even longer overall length. Therefore, if the road leading to the disaster-stricken area is designed to allow sufficient passage of such trailers, there is not much difficulty in transporting the container-type medical examination room to the site. However, if the road leading to the disaster-stricken area does not have sufficient dimensions to allow the trailer to pass, or even if it has sufficient dimensions, the available space cannot be fully utilized due to sediment, fallen trees or other obstacles, it becomes difficult to transport the trailer to the disaster-stricken area. Furthermore, even if the trailer can enter the disaster-stricken area, heavy machinery is required to unload the container from the trailer and install it on the ground. If the heavy machinery cannot be brought into the disaster-stricken area in the first place, the container cannot be installed, and the facility cannot function as a clinic. Of course, even if stairs are installed to allow people to enter the container loaded on the trailer, there may be cases where the trailer itself must be left on site in the disaster-stricken area, which may cause the problem of preventing efficient utilization of valuable trailer resources. Furthermore, disaster-stricken areas, depending on the type of disaster, are at risk of widespread infectious diseases, as will be discussed later. Therefore, preventing the spread of infection in mobile clinics such as containers, and protecting staff dispatched to the site from infectious diseases, are critical issues. Stool tests are one method of testing for such infectious diseases, but conventional mobile clinics have not been seen equipped with toilets. This is likely because they wanted to eliminate the contamination of the air inside the mobile clinic by contaminated air containing droplets originating from defecation in toilets. [Prior art documents] [Patent Documents]

[0015] <Embodiment 1> Embodiment 1 mainly relates to Claim 1 and the like.

[0016] <Outline of Embodiment 1> The trailer house-type mobile clinic of Embodiment 1 is a clinic provided inside a trailer house. A trailer house is a movable examination room having a structure in which a medical space is mounted on a frame (framework) provided with tires called a chassis. Since the trailer house is not equipped with an engine, it cannot travel on its own and is moved by being towed by a vehicle. In the trailer house-type mobile clinic, medical personnel including doctors can examine patients and perform appropriate diagnosis and first aid. Furthermore, the medical personnel may be configured to perform audio-visual communication with a partner hospital when diagnosing a patient to obtain diagnoses and opinions from specialists in each field. The trailer house-type mobile clinic of Embodiment 1 has a toilet, and has two entrances of the trailer house-type mobile clinic near the entrance of the toilet. Droplets from patients infected with infectious diseases such as coronavirus can be effectively discharged to the outside of the trailer house-type mobile clinic because the entrance doors are provided on both sides.

[0017] <Description of Configuration of Embodiment 1> (Overall Configuration of Embodiment 1) In Embodiment 1, the trailer-type mobile clinic has a toilet booth located adjacent to the front or rear wall inside the house. The mobile clinic also has passage areas accessible through doors located on the left and right sides of the house, adjacent to the entrance of the toilet booth.

[0018] (Configuration of Embodiment 1) Figure 1 shows an example of the exterior of a trailer-type mobile clinic 0100 according to Embodiment 1. Figure 2 is a plan view showing an example of a mobile clinic according to Embodiment 1. The trailer-type mobile clinic 0200 has a toilet booth 0220 at least along the front wall or rear wall inside the trailer house 0210. The trailer-type mobile clinic 0200 has a left door 0230 and a right door 0240 that serve as entrances to the house, near the entrance to the toilet where the toilet booth 0220 is located.

[0019] (Embodiment 1: Configuration of a trailer house) The length of the trailer house 0210 is not particularly limited, but is between 5,000 and 7,000 millimeters. The width of the trailer house 0210 is not particularly limited, but is between 2,000 and 3,000 millimeters. The height of the trailer house 0210 is not particularly limited, but is between 2,000 and 3,000 millimeters.

[0020] The materials used for the Trailer House 0210 are not particularly limited; it can be made of steel or wood. The Trailer House 0210 is equipped with waterproofing and insulation to create a suitable environment inside the house for use as a clinic. To maintain cleanliness inside a trailer-type mobile clinic, it may be advisable to prohibit shoes from being worn inside. This is to prevent the introduction of germs and unsanitary items from footwear into the trailer-type mobile clinic. When patients enter the trailer-type mobile clinic, it may be advisable to provide packaging containers near the entrance so that they can store their footwear in the containers and carry it with them.

[0021] (Embodiment 1 Configuration: Toilet booth) Toilet booth 0220 is located adjacent to either the front or rear wall of the trailer house. Toilet booth 0220 is a place for patients to dispose of waste and excrement. Since waste and excrement may contain bacteria and viruses, it is desirable that, as an infection control measure, it be located adjacent to either the front or rear wall of the trailer house, furthest away from medical personnel, including doctors. Disaster areas are prone to various diseases. Because many people live in close proximity in evacuation centers and other shelters, the risk of infectious diseases increases. In particular, gastrointestinal infections, colds, and influenza are likely to spread. Examples of gastrointestinal infections that are especially problematic in disaster areas are listed below. (1) Diarrhea: This occurs when pathogens enter the body due to poor hygiene of drinking water or food. Bacterial and viral causes are common, with rotavirus and norovirus being frequent culprits. (2) Enteritis: A disease in which bacteria or viruses infect the intestines and cause inflammation. Symptoms include abdominal pain, diarrhea, and fever. (3) Dysentery (bacterial dysentery): An infectious disease caused by Shigella, a type of bacterium, characterized by severe diarrhea, abdominal pain, and fever. (4) Cholera: An infectious disease caused by the cholera bacterium, characterized by severe watery diarrhea and vomiting. In severe cases, dehydration progresses, requiring prompt treatment. (5) Typhoid fever: Caused by Salmonella typhi, a type of Salmonella bacteria, it presents with symptoms such as fever, abdominal pain, diarrhea, or constipation.

[0022] Sodium hypochlorite may be used to disinfect any waste splashed in toilet booth 0220. Sodium hypochlorite is a chemical substance found in disinfectants and chlorine-based disinfectant bleaches, and is effective against influenza viruses and noroviruses. It is also possible to configure the system to disinfect the air inside toilet booth 0220 and the area in front of the door of toilet booth 0220. Examples of air disinfection include the following: (1) Cleverin Stand Type: Uses chlorine dioxide and is effective for disinfecting the air. Simply place it down to reduce viruses and bacteria in the air. (2) Air Doctor Space Disinfectant Gel: This gel disinfects and deodorizes the air by releasing chlorine dioxide. It is fragrance-free and can be used for a long period of time. (3) WillShut Room One-Shot Jet: A spray type that can eliminate viruses and bacteria throughout the room at once. (4) Hypochlorous acid water Dianist: This type is used in humidifiers and disinfects the air at the same time as humidifying.

[0023] Toilet booth 0220 consists of a portable wrap-around toilet 0221 and a toilet door 0222. The 0221 portable wrap-type portable toilet is a toilet system that includes an automatic wrap-type toilet and a diaper collection box. Because it seals waste and used diapers individually using heat sealing without using water, it prevents odor and bacterial leakage and reduces the effort required for post-processing. Furthermore, by using a coagulant in conjunction, it not only prevents odor leakage but also blocks microorganisms (bacteria). In addition, because the special odor-proof film uses polyethylene material, it suppresses the generation of harmful gases even when incinerated. It is also possible to configure the system so that a portion of the waste processed by the 0221 portable wrap-type portable toilet can be used for urine or stool testing. The toilet stalls can either have handwashing facilities inside or outside of them. The toilet door 0222 is preferably a door that can be opened and closed inward from the toilet booth 0220. Considering the wind direction inside the trailer house, it should open by pushing inward from the toilet booth 0220.

[0024] Toilet booth 0220 does not necessarily have to be enclosed on all six sides, including the floor and ceiling. Toilet booth 0220 may be enclosed on four sides, including the floor, ceiling, rear wall, and side walls, with the remaining two sides separated by curtains, partitions, dividers, blinds, etc. Furthermore, the toilet booth 0220 may be in contact with the rear or front wall of the house without any gaps, or it may be in contact with the rear or front wall with a small gap. Even if cleaning tools or other items are placed in that small gap, the toilet booth 0220 will still be considered to be in contact with the rear or front wall of the house. Also, of course, the rear or front wall, or in some cases a part of the side wall of the trailer, may be shared as a wall surface constituting the toilet booth.

[0025] (Embodiment 1 Configuration: Left and Right Doors) The left and right doors are the entrance doors of the trailer-type mobile clinic. Looking at the trailer in the direction of travel, there is a right door 0230 and a left door 0240. The left and right doors can be hinged, sliding, or folding doors. Hinged doors can be double doors, double-hinged doors, or doors with side panels of glass. The left and right doors can be made of wood or metal. The central part of the left and right doors may be glass. The left and right doors are designed so that patients enter from one side and exit from the other, thus avoiding physical contact between patients. The left and right doors are positioned linearly along the shorter side of the trailer-type mobile clinic, allowing for good ventilation to the outside (see Figure 2). In other words, the left and right doors are positioned to separate the toilet booth from the area where medical staff are located. Therefore, even if there are patient droplets or odors in the toilet booth, the medical staff's seating area is opposite the toilet booth, making it difficult for the droplets or odors to reach them. Additionally, the system could be configured to allow for the placement of disinfectant alcohol near the left and right doors.

[0026] (Embodiment 1 Configuration: Passage Area) Figure 3 is a plan view showing the passage area of ​​the mobile clinic according to Embodiment 1. The passage areas 0350, located on the left and right sides of the house, are the areas through which patients pass when entering and leaving the clinic, and are defined as follows: With the doors open, let L be the length of the door opening. Points A (left) and B (right) are located 0.8L to the left and right of the center of the opening length of one door, and points C (left) and D (right) are located 0.8L to the left and right of the center of the opening length of the other door. Points A and B are connected by a straight line (line AB), points C and D are connected by a straight line (line CD), points A and C are connected by a straight line (line AC), and points B and D are connected by a straight line (line BD). The area enclosed by lines AB, CD, AC, and BD (a rectangle) is the passage area. In reality, since it is a 3D space rather than a 2D space, the passage area 0350 is the 3D space that is the trajectory of the plane containing rectangle ABDC moving vertically from the floor to the ceiling. Furthermore, the opposing left and right doors do not have to be directly in front of each other, but may be offset from each other. In other words, ABDC may be a parallelogram instead of a rectangle. Even if a part of the passage area is adjacent to the toilet booth 0320 in this way, the toilet booth shall be adjacent to the passage area 0350. The passage area 0350 is located near the toilet booth 0320 and is configured to allow air to pass through from the left and right doors, so that droplets from patients using the toilet booth 0320 can be effectively removed to the outside of the trailer-type mobile clinic.

[0027] <Embodiment 1 Other Configurations> The equipment typically included in the mobile clinic described above includes power supply equipment, lighting equipment, and signage equipment. Specifically, power supply equipment includes a battery storage unit, power supply unit, power control unit, and power outlets; lighting equipment includes lighting fixtures; and signage equipment includes digital signage. The following describes the functional blocks when these are installed. (Embodiment 1 Functional Block Diagram Overview) Figure 4 is a functional block diagram of the electrical and electronic equipment used in the trailer-type mobile clinic 0400 in Embodiment 1.

[0029] (Embodiment 1 Functional Block Diagram: Power Supply Unit) The power supply unit 0402 supplies the necessary power to each electronic device used within the trailer-type mobile clinic 0400, enabling it to function. For example, it supplies the required power to medical equipment to make it usable, or supplies the necessary power to monitors for video conferencing to make them operational.

[0030] (Embodiment 1 Functional Block Diagram: Power Control Unit) The power control unit 0403 controls the power used in the trailer-type mobile clinic 0400. The power control unit 0403 estimates the amount of power required for electronic devices and allocates the required amount of power to the electronic devices within the limits of the amount of power stored in the energy storage unit 0401. If the required amount exceeds the amount of power stored in the energy storage unit 0401, the unit may be configured to take control actions such as turning off the signage or temporarily stopping the air conditioner.

[0031] (Embodiment 1 Functional Block Diagram: Digital Signage) Signage 0404 is a digital signage system installed on the exterior wall of the trailer-type mobile clinic 0400. Digital signage is a system that uses electronic devices such as displays and projectors to transmit information, and is also called an electronic sign or electronic bulletin board. It can convey a large amount of information at once and can switch between scenes by displaying videos and multiple images. Since the trailer-type mobile clinic 0400 is expected to operate in various lands, areas, and locations, the signage 0404 allows for the display of information to be changed as needed, and also makes it eye-catching with vivid images. Furthermore, the signage 0404 can be detachably attached to the exterior entrance door of the trailer-type mobile clinic 0400. The signage 0404 may be installed on one exterior wall of the trailer-type mobile clinic 0400, or on both exterior walls.

[0032] (Embodiment 1 Functional Block Diagram: Lighting) Lighting 0405 illuminates the interior space with light so that medical procedures can be performed in the trailer-type mobile clinic 0400. Lighting 0405 is not particularly limited, but an LED ceiling light is preferred from the following viewpoints. Highly energy-efficient: Compared to fluorescent ceiling lights, it consumes about half the power, leading to savings on electricity bills. Long lifespan: LEDs have a long lifespan of approximately 40,000 hours, meaning they can be used for 8 to 10 years even with 10 hours of daily use. Low UV radiation: Because it contains almost no UV radiation that attracts insects, it is suitable for use in the 0400, a trailer-type mobile clinic installed outdoors. Easy to install: It can be installed simply by plugging it into a wiring device called a "hanging ceiling socket" or "rosette" installed on the ceiling. Lighting fixture 0405 may be installed at the front and rear of the trailer-type mobile clinic, or it may be arranged evenly throughout the space excluding the toilet booth.

[0033] (Embodiment 1 Functional Block Diagram: Outlet) Outlet 0406 is a plug socket installed in a wall or other surface for connecting cords to electrical wiring. For example, it is used to plug in cords for medical equipment when performing medical procedures in a trailer-type mobile clinic 0400. Multiple outlets are also necessary to secure power for signage 0404, lighting 0405, etc.

[0034] (Embodiment 1 Functional Block Diagram: Control Panel) The control panel 0407 is a piece of equipment that consolidates various devices to enable efficient machine operation. The trailer-type mobile clinic 0400 has many devices such as signage 0404, lighting 0405, and power outlets 0406, and the control panel 0407 allows for centralized management of the ON / OFF switching of these devices. The control panel 0407 may also be configured to display the currently used power and the remaining power in the battery unit at a glance.

[0035] (Embodiment 1 Other Permitted Configurations Bed) A trailer-type mobile clinic is preferably equipped with a bed for patients to lie on. This allows the doctor to examine, diagnose, and treat patients lying on the bed. The size of the bed is not particularly limited, but it should be large enough for one adult to lie on, measuring approximately 195 centimeters in length and 97 centimeters in width. The bed is covered with a white bed sheet. The bed sheet may be reusable after washing or disposable. For bed sheets used in mobile clinics dispatched to disaster areas, the following characteristics are preferable: (1) Breathability: Breathable sheets allow patients to rest comfortably even under harsh conditions and help release heat and sweat. (2) Durability: Sheets must be highly durable and able to withstand frequent use and washing. In particular, materials with excellent abrasion resistance are required. (3) Antibacterial and deodorizing properties: Sheets with antibacterial and deodorizing properties are useful for preventing infectious diseases and maintaining hygiene. (4) Waterproofing: To reduce the risk in emergencies, waterproof sheets are also worth considering as an option. (5) Flame retardancy: To enhance safety, flame-retardant treated sheets reduce the risk of fire. Choosing sheets with these characteristics according to their intended use will make the clinic environment in disaster areas even more comfortable and safer.

[0036] (Embodiment 1 Other Permissible Configurations Desk) This desk is used by medical professionals, including doctors. The desk can be used by doctors and other medical staff to record examination results in patients' medical records. Doctors and other medical staff can also place a computer on the desk and use it to input necessary information such as patient names, My Number card information, medical history, diagnosis results, treatment history, and prescription information into the electronic medical record system installed on the computer.

[0037] (Embodiment 1 Other Permissible Configurations Chair) These are chairs for medical professionals, including doctors, and patients to sit on. While there are no specific limitations on the type of chair, a chair without a backrest is preferable, as it would get in the way when examining the abdomen or back.

[0038] (Embodiment 1 Other Permitted Configurations Examination Device) Medical equipment includes imaging diagnostic devices that check the condition of illnesses and injuries from images taken of patients, as well as medical equipment such as computed tomography (CT) scanners and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanners. The following are examples of medical and diagnostic equipment that would be useful in disaster-stricken areas. (1) Portable Examination and Testing Equipment: Using portable, compact examination and testing equipment will enable rapid medical treatment in disaster areas. Examples include blood pressure monitors, blood glucose meters, and portable ultrasound devices. Portable ultrasound devices allow for real-time sharing of images of the heart and internal organs, enabling doctors in remote locations to provide appropriate instructions. Digital stethoscopes can also transmit heart and respiratory sounds clearly to doctors in remote locations. (2) Mobile CT scanners: Mobile CT scanners brought to disaster areas can also be useful for rapid medical assessment. They allow for quick diagnoses in the affected areas and enable the sharing of images with medical professionals at a distance. (3) Portable Endoscopes: In disaster areas, portable endoscopes are useful for rapid diagnosis and treatment. These flexible, tubular endoscopes are used to examine wound infections and infections of the digestive system, such as the esophagus and stomach. They are fully standalone endoscopes equipped with a monitor, LED light source, and battery, eliminating the need for peripheral equipment or cable connections.

[0039] (Embodiment 1 Other Permitted Configurations Treatment Device) Furthermore, treatment equipment may be installed within this trailer. In the future, remote surgical equipment may be mounted on it. For example, the following: (1) Ventilator: Necessary for saving the lives of patients who have difficulty breathing. (2) Defibrillator (AED): Essential for saving the life of patients in cardiac arrest. (3) Infusion pumps and infusion sets: Used to administer necessary medications and nutrients to patients. (4) Electrosurgical unit: A device used for cutting and hemostasis during surgery. (5) Mobile operating room: A mobile operating room equipped for simple surgical procedures may be provided.

[0040] (Embodiment 1 Other Permitted Configurations Communication Network) Figure 5 is a diagram showing an example of a communication network for a trailer-type mobile clinic. The communication network configuration 0500 consists of a terminal installed inside the trailer-type mobile clinic 0501, a communication line 0510, and a terminal installed at the affiliated hospital 0520. Furthermore, it is preferable that the communication network be configured to connect to an electronic medical record information sharing service (a system that shares medical institutions with each other medical institutions, including medical history, test results, and prescription drug information recorded in electronic medical records. This enables the review of past test results and the prescription of safe medications). This is because in disaster areas, patients and those receiving medical treatment cannot be expected to carry their medication records as they would under normal circumstances. Furthermore, it is preferable that the communication network be configured to allow the use of landlines and mobile phones in addition to computers, and from this perspective, it is preferable that Wi-Fi equipment be installed inside the trailer house. It is also preferable that the computer is connected to a microphone and speakers and can be used for video conferencing, etc. Therefore, the trailer-type mobile clinic 0501 is equipped with communication equipment for doctors and other medical personnel to communicate with the outside world. The communication line 0510 is not particularly limited and may be a public telephone system, an internet line, or a satellite communication line. The antenna as a means of communication will be discussed later.

[0041] Partner hospitals 0520 are general hospitals and specialized hospitals with which the doctors and other medical staff of the trailer-type mobile clinic 0500 have pre-arranged partnership agreements. The trailer-type mobile clinic 0500 operates on the premise of having only one doctor, and it is difficult for one doctor to diagnose and treat all injuries and illnesses. Partner general hospitals and specialized hospitals have numerous medical departments, allowing patients to consult with specialists for diagnosis, treatment methods, and symptomatic care. When accessing affiliated hospitals, the system may be configured to require not only the doctor's name and medical license number, but also the affiliated hospital's ID and password. Furthermore, passwords may be set for inquiries to each clinical department. It should be noted that although the term "affiliated hospital" has been used above, it is of course possible to use hospitals that are not affiliated, and the communication recipient may not be a hospital or clinic, but rather a doctor, nurse, or technician at a hospital or clinic that is closed or operating on a reduced schedule due to a disaster.

[0042] (Embodiment 1 Other permissible configurations: monitor, camera, microphone) A mobile clinic in the form of a trailer home is preferably equipped with a video conferencing system. The video conferencing system consists of a large, high-quality monitor, a high-resolution camera, a high-performance microphone, a high-performance speaker, and designated communication equipment. This is to enable smooth communication with clear sound quality between doctors at partner hospitals and doctors and patients at the mobile clinic in the trailer home. Furthermore, it is desirable that the high-resolution camera be freely movable so that the affected area of ​​the patient can be magnified and examined. It may also be configured so that specialists at affiliated hospitals can examine the patient's affected area in real time. The monitor can be a television monitor, an LCD display, or a projector. A monitor size of 30 inches or larger is preferable. Furthermore, it is preferable that this video conferencing system be configured to receive the examination results from the aforementioned medical equipment and transmit them directly to the other party. Examples include, but are not limited to, cross-sectional images of the body, video images from an ultrasound device, blood pressure readings, electrocardiograms, and audio information from a digital stethoscope.

[0043] (Embodiment 1 Other Permitted Configurations Connecting Part) The coupling section of a trailer-type mobile clinic refers to the component that connects the tractor to the trailer, which is the trailer-type mobile clinic. For example, the coupling section on the tractor side is a coupler, and the coupling section on the trailer side is a kingpin. A coupler is a disc-shaped component with a V-shaped notch, mounted on the tractor. It connects to the trailer by inserting a pin called a kingpin into it. There are single-axle and double-axle couplers, depending on the load on the connection and the intended use of the vehicle. The kingpin is the coupling on the trailer side; towing becomes possible when the large pin is inserted into the coupler.

[0044] (Embodiment 1 Other Permitted Configurations Fixed Jack) A fixed jack is a jack installed at the very bottom of scaffolding and is a basic jack that attaches to the support column. Fixed jacks are used when erecting scaffolding vertically in a flat environment. Specifically, they are installed using the following procedure: (1) Attach a material called an underbase, which prevents the scaffolding from sinking, to the bottom of the fixed jack base. (2) Insert the base part into the underbase. (3) Turn the attached handle to adjust the height. By laying an underbase, the load on the ground is distributed, making the scaffolding more stable. In addition, the position of the support posts can be kept constant even on uneven ground, making it possible to install handrails, treads, etc., horizontally. Maintaining a level floor inside the trailer using fixed jacks or similar devices is important for the following reasons: (1) Safety and stability (a) Workplace stability: A level floor in a clinic allows medical staff to work stably. This is especially important in situations requiring a high degree of precision, such as moving patients or handling surgical instruments. (i) Stable placement of equipment: Stable placement of medical equipment and facilities allows for safe medical examinations and treatments. Unstable floor surfaces increase the risk of equipment moving or falling over. (2) Reducing the burden on patients (a) Ensuring the safety of patient movement: A level floor is essential for safely moving and transferring patients. In particular, a level floor makes it easier to operate stretchers and wheelchairs when moving from a station. (i) Comfortable environment: The level floor surface provides comfort so that patients can rest quietly in the clinic. This allows them to feel at ease during treatment and hospitalization. (3) Proper operation of the equipment (a) Controlling the flow of fluids: A level floor is important for precisely controlling the flow of intravenous fluids and other medical fluids. A slope can make the fluid flow unstable. (i) Use of precision equipment: Precision equipment used for diagnosis and treatment requires level installation. Unstable installation can impair the accuracy of the equipment. (4) Streamlining emergency response Rapid Response: A level floor surface is essential to create an environment that allows for a quick and efficient response in emergencies. Allowing medical staff to work under optimal conditions can increase the survival rate.

[0045] (Embodiment 1 Other Permitted Configurations Means for filling in steps) A trailer-type mobile clinic is positioned 50 to 60 centimeters above ground level, and a step may be added to allow patients to enter and exit the trailer-type mobile clinic. Means of adding the step include, for example, stairs, ladders, ramps, and elevators. In Embodiment 1, a prefabricated staircase is installed as a means of adding the step.

[0046] (Embodiment 1 Other Permissible Configurations Refrigerator) A mobile clinic in the form of a trailer home may be equipped with a refrigerator for storing blood for transfusions. In cases where a patient requires a transfusion due to massive bleeding from an injury, the stored blood can be used to save their life. In addition to blood transfusions, COVID-19 vaccines, influenza vaccines, suppositories, syrups, eye drops, etc., can also be stored in the refrigerator.

[0047] <Effects of Embodiment 1> This embodiment of a trailer-type mobile clinic allows for the use of a toilet when diagnosing and treating victims in disaster areas where water and sewage systems are unavailable. Therefore, stool samples can be taken to determine whether or not a patient has contracted an infectious disease that is prevalent in disaster areas, and indoor air pollution originating from the toilet can be effectively prevented. Furthermore, especially in disaster areas where water and sewage systems are unavailable, doctors providing examinations and treatment at this clinic can live in the trailer house, including using the toilet, making it easier to continue medical activities for a certain period of time.

[0048] <Common electronic equipment used in trailer homes> The present invention can consist of a wide variety of components, including the frame of a mobile clinic, medical equipment installed in the mobile clinic, communication equipment installed inside and outside the mobile clinic, and energy supply equipment for the mobile clinic, as well as software (although not all of these are necessarily essential). Figure 20 shows the hardware configuration used in relation to the satellite communication equipment of this embodiment. The satellite communication equipment consists of an antenna, a transmitting and receiving circuit, an encoder, a decoder, a communication control circuit, a display, a display control circuit, etc. Below, the basic configuration of the hardware and software used in the computer used for communication control and the various electronic devices listed in the permissible configuration of Embodiment 1 will be described. This invention, in principle, utilizes an electronic computer, but can be realized through software, hardware, and the collaboration of software and hardware. Hardware that realizes all or part of the constituent elements of this invention consists of the basic components of a computer, such as a CPU, memory, bus, input / output devices, various peripheral devices, and a user interface. Various peripheral devices include storage devices, internet interfaces, internet devices, displays, keyboards, mice, speakers, cameras, video cameras, televisions, and various sensor devices. Furthermore, this system does not necessarily have to be composed of a single enclosure; it may be composed of multiple enclosures connected by communication. The communication may be a LAN, WAN, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth®, infrared communication, or ultrasonic communication, and furthermore, some of the systems may be installed across national borders. Moreover, each of the multiple enclosures may be operated by a different entity, or they may be operated by a single entity. The operating entity of the system of this invention may be singular or plural. Furthermore, the invention can also be considered as a system that includes terminals used by third parties, and even terminals used by other third parties. Furthermore, these terminals may be installed across national borders. In addition to this system and the aforementioned terminals, devices may be provided for registering relevant information of third parties and related individuals, as well as devices used for databases to record registration details. These may be stored within this system, or they may be stored outside this system and configured to make this information available.

[0049] As shown in this diagram, the computer consists of a chipset, CPU, non-volatile memory, main memory, various buses, BIOS, various interfaces such as USB, HDMI®, and LAN, and a real-time clock, all configured on a motherboard. These work together with the operating system, device drivers (for various interfaces such as USB and HDMI®, and for embedding various devices such as cameras, microphones, speakers or headphones, and displays), and various programs. The various programs and data constituting the present invention are configured to efficiently utilize these hardware resources to perform various processes.

[0050] ≪Chipset≫ A "chipset" is a set of large-scale integrated circuits (LSIs) mounted on a computer's motherboard that integrates the functionality of bridging—that is, the communication function between the CPU's external bus and the standard bus connecting memory and peripheral devices. There are two chipset configurations and one chipset configurations. The northbridge is located closer to the CPU and main memory, while the southbridge is located further away and serves as the interface for relatively slower external I / O.

[0051] (Northbridge) The northbridge includes the CPU interface, memory controller, and graphics interface. The CPU can handle most of the functions traditionally performed by the northbridge. The northbridge connects to the main memory slots via a memory bus and to the graphics card slots via a high-speed graphics bus (AGP, PCI Express).

[0052] (Southbridge) The southbridge connects to the PCI interface (PCI slot) via the PCI bus and handles I / O functions and sound functions for ATA (SATA) interface, USB interface, Ethernet interface, etc. Circuits supporting PS / 2 ports, floppy disk drives, serial ports, parallel ports, and ISA buses, which do not require or are impossible to operate at high speeds, can be separated from the southbridge chip and handled by a separate LSI called a super I / O chip, as this would hinder the speed of the chipset itself. Buses are used to connect the CPU (MPU) to peripherals and various control units. These buses are linked by the chipset. For the memory bus used to connect to main memory, a channel structure may be adopted instead to achieve higher speeds. Either a serial bus or a parallel bus can be used. While a serial bus transfers data one bit at a time, a parallel bus transmits the original data itself or multiple bits extracted from the original data as a single unit, simultaneously over multiple communication channels. A dedicated line for the clock signal runs parallel to the data lines to synchronize data demodulation at the receiving end. It is also used as a bus to connect the CPU (chipset) to external devices, and examples include GPIB, IDE / (parallel)ATA, SCSI, and PCI. Due to limitations in speed increases, in improved versions of PCI such as PCI Express and improved versions of parallel ATA such as Serial ATA, the data lines can be a serial bus.

[0053] ≪CPU≫ The CPU sequentially reads, interprets, and executes instruction sequences called programs located in main memory, outputting signal-based information back to the main memory. The CPU functions as the central hub for performing calculations within the computer. The CPU consists of a CPU core, which is the core of the calculations, and its peripheral parts. Inside the CPU are registers, cache memory, an internal bus connecting the cache memory and the CPU core, a DMA controller, timers, and an interface to the bus connecting to the northbridge. A single CPU (chip) may have multiple CPU cores. In addition to the CPU, processing may also be performed by a graphics interface (GPU) or FPU. The description in this embodiment is for a 2-core type, but it is not limited to this. Furthermore, the CPU can also have a program embedded within it.

[0054] Non-volatile memory The basic structure of a hard disk drive (HDD) consists of a magnetic disk, a magnetic head, and an arm that houses the magnetic head. The external interface can be SATA (formerly ATA). A high-performance controller, such as SCSI, supports communication between hard disk drives. For example, when copying a file to another hard disk drive, the controller can read sectors, transfer them to the other hard disk drive, and write them. This process does not access the host CPU's memory, thus avoiding increased CPU load.

[0055] Main Memory The CPU directly accesses and executes various programs in main memory. Main memory is volatile memory, and DRAM is used. Programs in main memory are loaded from non-volatile memory into main memory upon receiving a program execution command. Subsequently, the CPU executes the program according to various execution commands and procedures within the program.

[0056] Operating System (OS) An operating system is used to manage the resources on a computer for applications to use, manage various device drivers, and manage the computer hardware itself. In small computers, firmware may be used as the operating system.

[0057] ≪BIOS≫ The BIOS is the component that instructs the CPU to start the computer hardware and run the operating system. Most typically, it is the first piece of hardware the CPU reads when it receives a computer startup command. The BIOS contains the addresses of the operating system stored on the disk (non-volatile memory), and the BIOS, deployed by the CPU, sequentially loads the operating system into main memory, bringing it into operation. The BIOS also has a check function that checks for the presence of various devices connected to the bus. The results of the check are saved in main memory and made available to the operating system as appropriate. The BIOS may also be configured to check for external devices. The above applies to all embodiments.

[0058] As shown in the figure, the present invention can basically be composed of a general-purpose computer program and various devices. The operation of the computer basically involves loading a program stored in non-volatile memory into main memory, and then executing processing between the main memory, the CPU, and various devices. Communication with devices is performed via an interface connected to a bus line. Possible interfaces include display interfaces, keyboards, and communication buffers. Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the illustrations.

[0059] <Satisfaction of the applicability of natural laws in this invention> This invention functions through the collaboration of a computer, communication equipment, and software. Specifically, it relates to a centralized health and medical information management system for accumulating and centrally managing health and medical information, which is information related to an individual's health and medical care. Various information and data are exchanged between third-party terminals and administrator terminals via a network using hardware resources. Therefore, from this perspective, judging from the matters described in the claims and specification and the common technical knowledge related to those matters, this invention as a whole utilizes natural laws and falls under the category of a computer software-related invention.

[0060] <The significance of utilizing natural laws as required by patent law> The use of natural laws required under patent law is based on the purpose of the law, and is required to ensure that an invention is industrially useful, from the perspective that the invention must have industrial applicability and contribute to the development of industry. In other words, it requires that the invention be industrially useful, that is, that the effects of the invention declared in the application can be reproduced with a certain degree of certainty by implementing the invention. From this perspective, the applicability of natural laws is interpreted as meaning that the functions exhibited by each of the inventive features (constituent elements of the invention), which are the components of the invention that exert the effects of the invention, are exerted by utilizing natural laws. Furthermore, the effect of the invention only needs to have the potential to provide a certain level of usefulness to the user who uses the invention, and should not be viewed from the perspective of how the user feels or thinks about that usefulness. Therefore, even if the effect that the user obtains from this system is a psychological effect, the effect itself is an event outside the scope of the required applicability of natural laws.

[0061] <Embodiment 2> Embodiment 2 mainly relates to claim 2, etc.

[0062] <Overview of Embodiment 2> Embodiment 2 is based on Embodiment 1. The trailer-type mobile clinic of the present invention is equipped with a satellite communication antenna installation section, and a satellite communication antenna and an outdoor unit can be installed there.

[0063] <Description of Embodiment 2> (Embodiment 2: Overall Configuration) A trailer-type mobile clinic is equipped with a satellite communication antenna mounting area on the outside of the front wall and / or the outside of the rear wall of the house. The trailer-type mobile clinic is equipped with communication equipment for doctors and other medical personnel to communicate with the outside world. Satellite communication is preferable for the communication equipment, as it can be used even in large-scale disasters, and is equipped with an antenna and transceiver. The reason for not using the mobile phone network is that the mobile phone network may be damaged and unusable in disaster areas, and even if it is available, stable communication may not be possible due to network congestion.

[0064] (Embodiment 2 Configuration: Antenna Installation Section) Figure 6 shows a trailer-type mobile clinic 0600 equipped with a satellite communication antenna mounting section 0650 on the outside of the front wall and / or the outside of the rear wall of the house. The trailer-type mobile clinic 0600 is equipped with the antenna mounting section 0650 in addition to the features of Embodiment 1. The antenna installation section 0650 is where the antenna is installed when the trailer-type mobile clinic 0600 communicates with an external partner hospital. The antenna installation section 0650 is not particularly limited as long as it is a location where satellite communication radio waves can be received. For example, the antenna installation section 0650 may be installed at the coupling section of the trailer house, or a foldable section may be installed on the outside of the front wall of the trailer house and / or the outside of the rear wall of the house. Furthermore, installing the antenna mounting section 0650 on the outer ceiling surface outside the house is undesirable from the standpoint of (1) the fact that solar panels and wind turbine blades are installed and occupied, and (2) the safety of antenna installation work at high altitudes. The antenna mounting section 0650 may be configured to be movable up, down, left, and right relative to the trailer house. Adjusting the direction and angle of the satellite communication antenna is cumbersome, so the antenna mounting section 0650 may be configured to be easily movable. Methods for securing the antenna mounting section 0650 include (1) fixing it to the trailer house body with bolts and nuts, (2) fixing it with adhesive, and (3) fixing it with a strong magnet. Furthermore, the antenna mounting 0650 may be installed on both the outside of the front wall and the outside of the rear wall of the house, or it may be installed on either one of them.

[0065] (Embodiment 2: Allowable Configuration Antenna) The antenna is installed on the antenna mounting section 0650. The antenna can be a parabolic antenna, a planar antenna, a horn antenna, a helical antenna, a logarithmic periodic antenna, or an array antenna. Regardless of the type of antenna, satellite communication requires sharp directivity due to the long communication range. Therefore, adjusting the antenna's mounting direction (antenna orientation and elevation angle) is important. When the trailer house is in transit, it is preferable to store the antenna inside the trailer house. After the trailer house arrives at the disaster area, the stored antenna should be removed and installed on the antenna mounting section. The reason for storing the antenna while moving is that if the antenna is permanently installed between the trailer and the vehicle, it would require extra space unrelated to movement, and if it is permanently installed at the rear of the trailer house, the overall length of the vehicle would increase, which could be an obstacle when turning on narrow roads. For example, a parabolic antenna for satellite communications consists of a dish, a primary radiator, and a converter. The dish is a round, plate-like part that reflects radio waves and focuses them towards the primary radiator located at the focal point. The primary radiator receives the radio waves that have been focused at the focal point. The converter converts the frequency of the radio waves. The parabolic antenna may be installed on the connecting section outside the trailer-type mobile clinic. When installing the parabolic antenna, attention must be paid to the direction and elevation angle of the parabolic antenna due to the extremely sharp directivity of radio waves. Furthermore, the position of the parabolic antenna must be firmly fixed, as even a 1-millimeter shift can change the communication environment. The parabolic antenna is preferably fixed to a mounting base installed on the outside of the front wall of the trailer-type mobile clinic, above the connection point with the towing vehicle (see Figures 1 and 4). The trailer-type mobile clinic is equipped with multiple fixing jacks to maintain a horizontal position when detached from the towing vehicle. Furthermore, for satellite communications, the National Police's video communication system may be used, or privately provided services such as Starlink, Inmarsat, and Iridium may be used.

[0066] <Embodiment 2 Functional Block Diagram> (Embodiment 2 Functional Block Diagram - General) Figure 7 is a functional block diagram of the trailer-type mobile clinic 0700 in Embodiment 2. In addition to the components of Embodiment 1, the trailer-type mobile clinic 0700 includes a transmitting / receiving unit 0701, a communication control unit 0702, and a display unit 0703.

[0067] (Embodiment 2 Functional Block Diagram: Transmitter / Receiver Unit) The transmitting / receiving unit 0701 transmits or receives radio waves containing audio and video information. For example, in the case of satellite communication, the frequency band is millimeter wave (30 to 300 GHz), and the transmitting / receiving unit 0701 is a parabolic antenna and receiver.

[0068] (Embodiment 2 Functional Block Diagram: Communication Control Unit) The communication control unit 0702 controls the communication speed and data transfer volume in networks and communication lines based on specific criteria. For example, in satellite communication, precipitation particles affect the amplitude, phase, and polarization, causing attenuation of the propagation distance. Among precipitation particles, rain has the greatest impact, and the attenuation increases as the rainfall intensity increases. Therefore, the communication control unit 0702 controls communication by reducing the amount of data, lowering the quality, or strengthening error correction.

[0069] (Embodiment 2 Functional Block Diagram: Display Unit) The display unit 0703 displays video received via communication and displays the target transmitted via communication. The display unit 0703 is not limited to video information and may also be configured to exchange audio information. For example, the display unit 0703 may be a television monitor, an LCD display, or a projector.

[0070] <Embodiment 2 Hardware Configuration Diagram> (Embodiment 2 Hardware Configuration Diagram - General) Figure 8 shows an example of the hardware configuration of a trailer-type mobile clinic 0800. The trailer-type mobile clinic 0800 includes a CPU 0801, non-volatile memory 0802, main memory 0803, I / O controller 0804, communication unit 0805, etc.

[0071] (Embodiment 2 Hardware Configuration Diagram CPU) The CPU (Central Processing Unit) 0801 sequentially reads, interprets, and executes a program, which is a sequence of instructions located in the non-volatile memory 0802, and outputs information consisting of signals to the main memory 0803. The CPU 0801 functions as the central hub for calculations within the computer. In this invention, the CPU 0801 centrally controls the power supply within the trailer-type mobile clinic 0800.

[0072] In Embodiment 2, the CPU 0801 executes a transmit / receive program for audio-video communication deployed on the main memory 0803 and issues commands to transmit and receive audio-video information. That is, the CPU 0801 may be configured to send the acquired audio-video to a partner hospital via the communication unit 0804 and obtain a medical examination from a doctor at the partner hospital. Alternatively, the transmit / receive program may be configured to store the acquired image information, even if not in real time, and send it to the partner hospital to obtain a medical examination from a doctor at the partner hospital.

[0073] (Embodiment 2 Hardware Configuration Diagram: Non-volatile memory) Non-volatile memory 0802 stores information such as mobile clinic information, medical personnel identification information, patient information, energy storage information, and power supply information. This user information is read from non-volatile memory 0802 and expanded onto main memory 0803, for example, triggered by power-on.

[0074] (Embodiment 2 Hardware Configuration Diagram Main Memory) Main memory 0803 is read by the CPU 0801 to execute programs that perform various processes, and at the same time, it provides a work area that serves as the working area for those programs. Main memory 0803 is volatile memory and uses Dynamic Random Access Memory (DRAM). Programs on main memory 0803 are loaded from non-volatile memory 0802 to main memory 0803, for example, after receiving a program startup instruction. The CPU 0801 directly accesses and executes the various programs on main memory 0803. Subsequently, the CPU 0801 executes the program according to various execution instructions and execution procedures within the program.

[0075] (Embodiment 2 Hardware Configuration Diagram Input / Output Interface Serial Bus) The input / output interface 0804 connects to an external device and transmits received signals to the CPU 0801 via the serial bus 0805.

[0076] (Embodiment 2 Hardware Configuration Diagram: Communication Unit) Communications unit 0805 exchanges information with the outside world of the trailer-type mobile clinic 0800. For example, communications unit 0805 transmits image information acquired by the trailer-type mobile clinic 0800 to affiliated hospitals. Communications unit 0805 also receives examination results based on the image information from affiliated hospitals.

[0077] (Embodiment 2 Hardware Configuration Diagram Program) In this embodiment, the non-volatile memory 0802 may store a power storage program, a power control program, a power supply program, and the like.

[0078] The energy storage program is read from the non-volatile memory 0802 and loaded onto the main memory 0803, triggered by an operation on the control panel after the power is turned on in the trailer-type mobile clinic 0800. The energy storage program converts the energy generated by the solar power generation panels into AC using the power module and stores it in the battery unit.

[0079] The power control program is read from non-volatile memory 0802 and loaded into main memory 0803, triggered by an operation on the control panel after the power is turned on to the trailer-type mobile clinic 0800. The power control program controls the power used by each device. When a new device is to be used, the estimated power consumption is estimated and it is determined whether or not it exceeds the allowable value. If it does not exceed the allowable value, the use of the new device is started. If it exceeds the allowable value, the use of the new device is not started. Alternatively, if the power to other devices is forcibly turned off and a new device is to be used, the estimated power consumption is estimated and it is determined whether or not it exceeds the allowable value. If it does not exceed the allowable value, the use of the new device is started. If it exceeds the allowable value, the use of the new device is not started. The system may be configured to perform similar processing for other devices as well.

[0080] The power supply program is read from the non-volatile memory 0802 and loaded onto the main memory 0803, triggered by an operation on the control panel after the power is turned on in the trailer-type mobile clinic 0800. The power supply program supplies the power allocated by the power control program to each device.

[0081] <Description of the processing flow in Embodiment 2> (Embodiment 2: Overview of the Processing Flow) Figure 9 is a flowchart showing an example of the process flow for checking the power supply when communicating in a trailer-type mobile clinic 0900.

[0082] When the power to the trailer-type mobile clinic 0900 is turned on, the energy storage program, power control program, power supply program, etc. are activated, and processing becomes possible. The communication connection request step (S0901) is the process by which a doctor located in the trailer-type mobile clinic 0900 initiates communication with a partner hospital for the purpose of examining a patient. The doctor starts up the video conferencing system, enters a prescribed ID and password such as the doctor's name and medical license number, and submits a communication connection request.

[0083] The power control step (S0902) estimates the amount of power stored in the energy storage unit and the estimated amount of power used for communication, and determines whether it exceeds the allowable value. If it does not exceed the allowable value, communication is started. If it exceeds the allowable value, communication cannot be started. In addition to the power consumption of communication itself, the power consumption of the PC, monitor, high-quality camera, high-quality microphone, etc. must also be considered.

[0084] The energy storage step (S0903) extracts power allocated by the power control program from the battery unit.

[0085] The power supply step (S0904) supplies power from the battery unit to the communication unit.

[0086] The display step (S0905) displays the communication status on the monitor. For example, it may show that communication has started or that it is waiting for a response from the partner hospital.

[0087] The communication control step (S0906) determines the communication bandwidth, modulation method, data rate, error correction, etc., based on the radio wave environment. Furthermore, since radio wave conditions change constantly, communication control is performed accordingly.

[0088] The communication step (S0906) initiates two-way audio and video communication. A doctor in the trailer-type mobile clinic 0900 speaks with a doctor at the affiliated hospital and examines the patient. The doctor at the affiliated hospital can speak directly with the patient in the trailer-type mobile clinic 0900. The doctor in the trailer-type mobile clinic 0900 can also bring the camera close to the patient's affected area to show it to the doctor at the affiliated hospital. Furthermore, the doctor in the mobile clinic can share in real time with the doctor at the affiliated hospital the situation of examining the patient with medical equipment and images displayed on the medical equipment's monitor.

[0089] <Effects of Embodiment 2> This embodiment allows for the installation of satellite communication antennas and air conditioner outdoor units in the antenna installation area. Furthermore, the satellite communication antenna installed in the antenna installation area enables patients to receive medical consultations from specialists at affiliated hospitals in a trailer-type mobile clinic.

[0090] <Embodiment 3> Embodiment 3 mainly relates to claim 3, etc.

[0091] <Overview of Embodiment 3> Embodiment 3 is based on Embodiment 1 or 2. The trailer-house type mobile clinic of the present invention has a configuration in which a sink is installed next to the toilet booth.

[0092] <Description of the configuration in Embodiment 3> (Embodiment 3: Overall Configuration) Figure 10 shows a trailer-house type mobile clinic in which one of the left and right walls of the toilet booth is spaced apart from the inner surface of the house side wall, and a sink is installed in that space. There is a certain amount of space between the toilet booth and the inner wall of the trailer-house type mobile clinic, and the sink 1060 is installed in that space.

[0093] (Embodiment 3 Configuration: Sink) The sink 1060 is a place for washing hands, gargling, washing dishes, etc. Like the toilet booth, the sink 1060 is located on the front or rear wall of the trailer-type mobile clinic, and is adjacent to the toilet booth. Therefore, by leaving the left and right doors on either side of the trailer-type mobile clinic open, the area is separated from the area where the doctor is located by the passageway. This effectively eliminates droplets from patients. A configuration in which a mirror is installed in front of the sink 1060 is also possible. This allows patients to check their appearance before and after their examination.

[0094] (Embodiment 3: Permissible Configuration - Purification Device) The water used in the trailer-type mobile clinic, including the water used in the sink 1060, may be treated with a water purification system. The water purification system is a device that produces tap water from river or reservoir water. First, large debris is removed in a sedimentation tank, and a coagulant is added to settle and remove fine particles. Then, organic matter is decomposed and removed by ozone oxidation, and the water passes through a biological activated carbon adsorption tank to remove fine impurities. Finally, it passes through a sand filtration tank and chlorine is injected to produce tap water. The location of the water purification device is not particularly limited, but it may be configured to be installed near the sink 1060 or a sink close to the toilet booth.

[0095] (Embodiment 3: Acceptable configuration: Intake port) The air intake 1070 may draw in outside air into the trailer-type mobile clinic. This is to maintain a healthy and clean indoor environment by circulating the air inside the trailer-type mobile clinic and expelling moisture and harmful substances. The location of the air intake 1070 is not particularly limited, but it is preferable to install it on the upper part of the wall on the side of the air conditioner's mounting base. The air intake 1070 should be fitted with a filter or the like to prevent dirt and dust from entering.

[0096] (Embodiment 3: Permissible Configuration - Ventilation Pipe Fan) The ventilation pipe fan 1080 may be configured to replace the air inside the trailer-type mobile clinic, expelling droplets, coronavirus, moisture, and harmful substances, and to draw in fresh air from the outside through the intake port 1070. The ventilation pipe fan 1080 is a ventilation fan that is attached to a pipe passed through a hole in the wall. The location of the ventilation pipe fan 1080 is not particularly limited, but it is preferable to install it on the upper part of the wall on the sink side 1060. Since there is also a hole in the exterior wall, a pipe hood should be installed around the ventilation pipe fan 1080 to prevent rain from entering.

[0097] <Effects of Embodiment 3> This embodiment allows for the installation of a handwashing area near the toilet booth inside a trailer-type mobile clinic, thereby eliminating droplets from patients and maintaining a clean and hygienic environment within the trailer-type mobile clinic.

[0098] <Embodiment 4> Embodiment 4 mainly relates to claim 4, etc.

[0099] <Embodiment 4 Overview> Embodiment 4 is based on Embodiments 1 to 3. The trailer-house type mobile clinic of the present invention is characterized in that one or both of its doors are double doors.

[0100] <Description of Embodiment 4 Configuration> (Embodiment 4: Overall Configuration) Figure 11 shows a trailer-house type mobile clinic characterized by having one or both doors being double doors.

[0101] (Embodiment 4 Configuration: Parent-child door) A double door consists of two doors, one on the left and one on the right, with one door being narrower than the other. The larger door is called the main door, and the smaller door is called the child door. Normally, only the main door is used. When necessary, the child door can be opened to enlarge the opening, which can be used for transporting critically ill patients on stretchers, etc. Opening the child door also expands the passage area, allowing for ventilation within the trailer-type mobile clinic.

[0102] <Effects of Embodiment 4> This embodiment facilitates entry and exit from the trailer-type mobile clinic, and allows patients to be admitted by opening both doors when necessary.

[0103] <Embodiment 5> Embodiment 5 mainly relates to claim 5, etc.

[0104] <Embodiment 5 Overview> Embodiment 5 is based on Embodiments 1 to 4. The trailer-house type mobile clinic of the present invention has an outdoor unit on the wall opposite to the wall where the toilet booth is located.

[0105] <Description of Embodiment 5> (Embodiment 5: Overall Configuration) Figure 12 shows a trailer-type mobile clinic 1200 in which the outdoor unit of an air conditioner is installed on the rear wall or front wall that is not the front wall or rear wall of the house where the toilet booth is installed. In addition to embodiments 1 to 4, the trailer-type mobile clinic 1200 has a configuration in which the outdoor unit of the air conditioner is installed at the antenna installation part of the trailer house and the indoor unit is installed inside the trailer-type mobile clinic 1200.

[0106] (Embodiment 5: Configuration of the outdoor unit) The outdoor unit 1261 controls the temperature inside the trailer-type mobile clinic 1200. The outdoor unit 1261 is installed on a mounting base located on the connecting section outside the trailer-type mobile clinic, alongside a parabolic antenna. The outdoor unit 1261 is connected to the indoor unit 1260 by a pipe, and heat exchange takes place between them.

[0107] (Embodiment 5: Permissible Configuration - Indoor Unit) The indoor unit 1260 may circulate the air inside the trailer-type mobile clinic and perform heating, cooling, air purification, and dehumidification. The indoor unit 1260 draws in air, cools it with a heat exchanger, and releases the cooled air into the room with a fan. In addition, the outdoor unit 1261 absorbs heat from the outside air and sends high-temperature refrigerant gas to the indoor unit. The heat from the refrigerant gas warms the heat exchanger, and the fan releases the heat into the room. The indoor unit 1260 is installed on the wall opposite to the wall where the toilet booth 1220 is located within the trailer-type mobile clinic. The air emitted from the indoor unit 1260 is used to expel splashes from the toilet booth and sink to the outside through the entrance.

[0108] <Embodiment 5 Functional Block Diagram> (Embodiment 5: Functional Block Diagram - General) Figure 13 is a functional block diagram of the trailer-type mobile clinic 1300 in Embodiment 5.

[0115] The energy storage step (S1503) extracts power allocated by the power control program from the battery unit.

[0116] The power supply step (S1504) supplies power from the battery unit to the outdoor unit.

[0117] The outdoor unit starts operation (S1505).

[0118] <Effects of Embodiment 5> This embodiment allows patients to receive medical consultations from specialists in a comfortable temperature environment at a mobile clinic in the form of a trailer house.

[0119] <Embodiment 6> Embodiment 6 mainly relates to claim 6 and the like.

[0120] <Embodiment 6 Overview> Embodiment 6 is based on Embodiments 1 to 5. The trailer-type mobile clinic of the present invention is configured to have solar panels installed on the exterior ceiling surface to supply electricity for use in the house.

[0121] <Description of the configuration of Embodiment 6> (Embodiment 6: Overall Configuration) Figure 16 is an external view showing the exterior of a trailer-type mobile clinic 1600. The trailer-type mobile clinic 1600 is characterized by having solar panels 1601 installed on the exterior ceiling surface. In addition to the solar panels, a wind power generation device 1602 may also be installed on the exterior ceiling surface.

[0122] (Embodiment 6 Configuration: Solar Panel) The solar panel 1601 is installed on the exterior ceiling of the trailer-type mobile clinic. By storing the electricity generated by the solar panel 1601 in a battery unit, it is possible to power electronic equipment, medical devices, air conditioners, signage, lighting, and other equipment used in the trailer-type mobile clinic. The amount of electricity generated by the solar panel 1601 is 2kW to 3kW.

[0123] The trailer-type mobile clinic may also be configured to use perovskite solar cells in addition to or instead of solar panels 1601. Perovskite solar cells utilize a material with a perovskite structure as a light-absorbing layer. When light strikes the perovskite layer, electrons and holes are generated and move to different electrodes, causing an electric current to flow. Perovskite solar cells have the following characteristics: (1) High efficiency: It has the potential to achieve high photoelectric conversion efficiency comparable to that of silicon solar cells. (2) Low cost: The manufacturing process is relatively simple and can be easily scaled up to a large area, so it has the potential to be manufactured at a low cost. (3) Lightweight and flexible: Because it is thin, lightweight, and can be fabricated on a flexible substrate, it is expected to be applied to products of various shapes. (4) Rapid development: Compared to silicon solar cells, the development period is shorter and it is easier to introduce new technologies.

[0124] (Embodiment 6: Permissible Configurations - Wind Turbine) The wind power generation device 1602 uses the power of wind to rotate a wind turbine, and transmits that rotational motion to a generator to produce electricity. The main components and mechanisms of wind power generation are listed below. (1) Blades: These are the blades of a wind turbine that capture the force of the wind and generate rotational motion. By optimizing the shape, material, and length of the blades, power generation efficiency can be increased. (2) Nacelle: This unit transmits the rotational motion of the blades to the generator, and houses the generator and gearbox inside. (3) Tower: A structure that supports the blades and nacelle. By increasing its height, it can capture stronger winds. (4) Speed ​​increaser: This uses gears to amplify the rotation of the blades to the rotational speed required for power generation. (5) Generator: Converts the rotational motion of a wind turbine into electricity. It uses a phenomenon called electromagnetic induction to convert rotational energy into electricity. Wind power generation efficiently generates electricity by automatically adjusting the blade angle and the direction of the wind turbine according to the wind strength and direction. Also, if the wind speed becomes too high and the rotation speed of the wind turbine increases too much, it stops rotating for safety reasons. The wind turbine 1602 generates between 7kW and 10kW of electricity. By storing the electricity generated by the wind turbine 1602 in a battery unit, it is possible to supply power to electronic equipment, medical equipment, air conditioners, signage, lighting, and other devices used in the trailer-type mobile clinic.

[0125] <Embodiment 6 Functional Block Diagram> (Embodiment 6: Functional Block Diagram - General) Figure 17 is a functional block diagram of the trailer-type mobile clinic 1700 in Embodiment 6. In addition to the configurations of Embodiments 1 to 5, the trailer-type mobile clinic 1700 is equipped with solar panels 1704.

[0126] (Embodiment 6 Functional Block Diagram: Solar Panel) The solar panel 1704 is installed on the exterior ceiling of a trailer-type mobile clinic and is configured to supply electricity for use in the clinic. The solar panel 1704 is made up of multiple solar cells. The relationship between the number of solar cells and the solar panel is not particularly limited, but depends on the amount of power generated and the installation area. Generally, 12 to 60 solar cells are assembled to make a solar panel. Furthermore, the scale of power generation is determined by the number of solar panels 1704, and thus the scale of the solar power generation system. In principle, the amount of power generated depends on the area on which the solar panels 1704 can be installed. For example, when installing them on the roof of a house, the area is not very large, so about 10 to 20 solar panels 1704 can be installed to cover the amount of electricity used by the household.

[0127] <Embodiment 6 Hardware Configuration Diagram> (Embodiment 6 Hardware Configuration Diagram - General) Figure 18 shows an example of the hardware configuration of a trailer-type mobile clinic 1800. The trailer-type mobile clinic 1800 includes a CPU 1801, non-volatile memory 1802, main memory 1803, I / O controller 1804, communication unit 1805, etc.

[0128] (Embodiment 6 Hardware Configuration Diagram Program) In this embodiment, the non-volatile memory 1802 may store a solar panel program, etc. The solar panel program is read from the non-volatile memory 1702 triggered by an operation of the control panel after the power is turned on to the trailer-type mobile clinic 1800, and is loaded onto the main memory 1803. The solar panel program is configured so that the electricity generated by the trailer-type mobile clinic 1800 is stored in the battery unit. The system may be configured to stop power generation if sufficient power is secured in the battery unit.

[0129] <Embodiment 6: Description of the Processing Flow> (Embodiment 6: Overview of the Processing Flow) Figure 19 is a flowchart illustrating an example of the process flow when a mobile clinic in the form of a trailer house is self-sufficient in electricity using solar panels and the like, while also controlling the power supply.

[0130] When the power to the trailer-type mobile clinic 1900 is turned on, the energy storage program, power control program, power supply program, solar panel program, etc. are activated, and processing becomes possible. The solar panel program supplies the electricity generated by the solar panels (S1901) to the battery unit (S1902).

[0131] The power control step estimates the amount of energy stored in the energy storage unit and the estimated amount of energy used by each device, and determines whether it exceeds the allowable value (S1903). If it does not exceed the allowable value, each device can be used. If it does exceed the allowable value, one or more devices may be shut down.

[0132] The energy storage step (S1904) extracts power allocated by the power control program from the battery unit.

[0133] The power supply step (S1905) involves supplying power from the battery unit to each device.

[0134] The outdoor unit begins operation of each device (S1906).

[0135] <Effects of Embodiment 6> This embodiment allows for patient examinations while being self-sufficient in electricity using solar panels or the like installed in a trailer-type mobile clinic. [Explanation of symbols]
