[0009] [Embodiment 1] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. The present invention is not limited to the above unless otherwise specified. It is not something that can be achieved.

[0010] <Terminology> In this specification, the term "shared space" means a space shared by multiple people. The shared space can be any space where a meeting booth is expected to be installed. Examples of shared spaces include office spaces, store spaces, and facilities. These include interior spaces, living spaces, and common spaces shared by multiple dwelling units. The types of stores are not particularly limited, and examples of the stores include cafes and restaurants, and the types of facilities include For example, a school may be mentioned. The shared space may be an indoor space or an outdoor space. The shared space may be an open space. An open space is an office space. It is a term commonly used in relation to the above, and is different from closed spaces such as conference rooms. I can say.

[0011] In this specification, the term "meeting booth" refers to a space for meetings in a shared space. Used to mean a set of various fixtures (panels, etc.) installed to define a space. In addition, in this specification, the term "meeting room" refers to a room that is defined in a shared space by installing various fixtures. The meeting space itself is called a "meeting space" to distinguish it from the meeting booths mentioned above. In this specification, the term "inside the meeting booth" refers to a meeting in the booth. Those who participate in the event are called "booth users."

[0012] <Overall configuration of the meeting booth> The overall configuration of the meeting booth in this embodiment will be described below, and then This section provides a detailed explanation of the configuration of various fixtures (panels, etc.) that will be installed in the shared spaces.

[0013] In recent years, the importance of privacy protection has increased. When conducting a meeting, make sure that the contents of the meeting cannot be detected from outside the meeting space. It is necessary to hold a meeting comfortably while giving people in the booth a sense of security. The object of one aspect of the present invention is to provide a method for controlling a meeting held in a booth. The booth users can feel secure about the confidentiality of their meetings, and can enjoy a comfortable meeting. The purpose of this invention is to provide a meeting booth that enables the implementation of such a project.

[0014] FIG. 1 illustrates the overall configuration of a meeting booth according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing the overall structure of a meeting booth according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG.

[0015] As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the meeting booth 1 in this embodiment is a shared space. The first and second benches 10 and 20 are installed in the same space and arranged opposite each other. A first back panel 100 is installed behind the chair 10, and a second back panel 20 is installed behind the chair 20. and a second rear panel 200.

[0016] The first rear panel 100 and the second rear panel 200 are respectively connected to each other in a shared space. The first rear panel 100 and the second rear panel 200 are disposed in a vertical position facing each other. The heights of the first rear panel 100 and the second rear panel 200 are the same. The height direction (vertical direction) of each of 00 is the Z-axis direction, and the XY plane perpendicular to the Z-axis direction is defined. The XY plane may be parallel to the floor surface on which the meeting booth 1 is installed. Viewing an object with a line of sight parallel to the X-axis (including perspective) is called "planar view." The Y-axis and the Z-axis are mutually orthogonal. For convenience of explanation, in the XYZ coordinate system, The entrance / exit side of the working booth 1 is defined as the positive direction of the Y-axis direction, and the direction from the first rear panel 100 to the second rear panel The direction toward the panel 200 is defined as the positive X-axis direction. In the following description, the XYZ axis directions are similarly defined, and the XYZ axis coordinate system is also shown in each drawing for reference. is illustrated.

[0017] The first rear panel 100 and the second rear panel 200 are aligned along the X axis in a plan view. are arranged side by side in the Y-axis direction (first direction) and from one end to the other along the Y-axis direction (second direction). In the example shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a first rear panel 100 and a second rear panel One end side in the Y-axis direction between the face panel 200 (the entrance / exit side of the meeting booth 1) An entrance 400 to the inside of the booth is formed at the other end in the Y-axis direction (the meeting booth 1 and 2, the third panel 300 is located at the rear of the first panel 30. The height of the first rear panel 100 and the height of the second rear panel 200 are aligned with each other. The third panel 300 is connected to the first rear panel 100 and the second rear panel 100 at the other end in the Y-axis direction. It connects to the panel 200.

[0018] The first bench 10 includes a first seat 11, and the second bench 20 includes a second seat 21. The first seat 11 of the first bench 10 has a first seat front edge (front edge) 11F that extends at an incline. The second seat 21 has a second seat front end edge (front end edge) 21F that extends at an incline. The edge 11F is the outer edge of the first seat 11 in a plan view that is farther from the first rear panel 100. The second seat front edge 21F is a portion that extends linearly and inclined along the Y-axis direction. The outer edge of the second seat 21 on the side farther from the second rear panel 200 is aligned along the Y-axis direction. In other words, in the meeting booth 1, The first seat front edge 11 is aligned with the center line CL of the meeting booth 1 extending in the Y-axis direction. The first seat front edge 1F and the second seat front edge 21F are inclined. The angle at which the first seat 1F and the second seat front end edge 21F are inclined with respect to the center line CL is called the inclination angle θ1( The inclination angle θ1 may be, for example, 2°. For example, it may be 1° or more and 10° or less.

[0019] The first seat 11 of the first bench 10 has a bottom surface, a seat surface, and a side surface located between them. The seat has a surface area that is inclined on one side so that the seat surface has a larger area than the bottom surface. In the example shown in Figs. 1 and 2, the first bench 10 is provided with a first backrest 11 on one side of the first seat 11. The side surface located on the side farther from the face panel 100 (the front side) is inclined. The outer edge of the seat 11 can be said to be the outer edge of the seat surface of the first seat 11. The same is true for

[0020] Meeting booth 1 is located at the front edge 11F of the first seat 11 and the front edge 11F of the second seat 21. Regarding the distance between the edge 21F, the distance D1 at the entrance side of the meeting booth 1 is The distance D1 at the rear of the meeting booth 1 is narrower than the distance D2 at the rear of the meeting booth 1.

[0021] In Meeting Booth 1, the back space of the booth (especially the first seat 11 and the second seat 2) 1) can be made relatively wide. This reduces the feeling of claustrophobia in the booth. In addition, booth users who sit (or take a seat) on the first seat 11 or the second seat 21 can The body is slightly tilted toward the back of the booth 1. Below, it is called "facing the back of the booth". Each of the multiple booth users sits in the first seat 11 or By sitting in the second seat 21 facing the back of the booth, you can increase intimacy with each other. At the same time, we will inform booth users of the confidentiality of the content of meetings held in the booth. This allows participants to feel at ease, making it possible to hold a comfortable meeting. can.

[0022] The first rear panel 100 is a surface facing the outside of the meeting space in the X-axis direction. The first outer surface 101 and the first outer surface 102 are surfaces facing the inside of the meeting space (the first bench 10 side). The second rear panel 200 has an inner surface 102. The second outer surface 201, which is the surface facing outward, and the inner surface of the meeting space (the second bench 20 side) The first outer surface 101 and the second outer surface 201 are planar. The meeting booth 1 may be arranged in a plan view as follows: Between the first outer surface 101 of the first rear panel 100 and the second outer surface 201 of the second rear panel 200 The distance D10 is constant from the end on the entrance / exit side to the end on the far side.

[0023] This allows multiple different meeting booths 1 to be arranged linearly adjacent to each other in the X-axis direction, for example. This makes it easy to arrange the second outer surface 20 of a certain meeting booth 1. 1 and the first outer surface 101 of another meeting booth 1 can be easily brought into close contact with each other. (See the example of multiple placement below.) As a result, the shared space can be used efficiently. It is easy to use.

[0024] In a plan view, the end of the first rear panel 100 on the entrance side is referred to as a first front end 100P. The end portion on the rear side is referred to as the first rear end portion 100N, and the end portion on the entrance side of the second rear panel 200 is referred to as the first rear end portion 100N. The second front end 200P and the rear end 200N are referred to as the second rear end 200N. In plan view, the first outer surface 101 of the first front end portion 100P and the second front end portion 2 The distance between the first outer surface 101 of the first rear end 100N and the second outer surface 201 of the first rear end 100P. The distance between the second outer surface 201 and the two rear end portions 200N is a distance D10.

[0025] The first bench 10 includes a first backrest 16 located above the first seat 11, and the second bench The first seat 11 and the first backrest 26 are disposed above the second seat 21. In this case, the first seat 11 and the first backrest 16 are connected to each other. The first bench 10 may be in contact with the first bench 10 at least partially, and may not be in contact with the first bench 10. At least one of the first seat 11 and the first backrest 16 is provided with a first rear panel 100. The second seat 21 and the second backrest 26 may be separate from each other. In this case, the second seat 21 and the second backrest 26 may be in at least partial contact with each other, The second bench 20 includes a second seat 21 and a second backrest 26. At least one of them may be fixed to the second rear panel 200.

[0026] The first backrest 16 may be secured to a first inner surface 102 of the first rear panel 100; The second backrest 26 may be fixed to the second inner surface 202 of the second rear panel 200. The outer edge of the first backrest 16 in plan view is the side farther from the first rear panel 100 in the Y-axis direction. The portion extending along the first rear panel 100 is called the first front edge (front edge) 16F. The portion extending in the Y-axis direction along the first inner surface 102 is referred to as a first rear edge (rear edge) 16B. The outer edge of the second backrest 26 in plan view is the side farther from the second rear panel 200. The portion extending along the Y-axis direction is the second rear front edge (front edge) 26F, which is connected to the second rear panel 200. The portion extending along the Y-axis direction on the near side and along the second inner surface 202 is called the second rear edge (rear Edge) is called 26B.

[0027] In a plan view, the first backrest 16 has a first back front edge 16F that is inclined and extends linearly. The second backrest 26 has a second back front edge 26F that is inclined and extends linearly. For example, in the meeting booth 1, the first back front edge 16F and the second back front edge 16F are aligned with respect to the center line CL. The back front edge 26F is inclined. The first backrest 16 has a first front end 16F and the second backrest 26 of the second bench 20 has a second front end 16F. The distance between the second back front edge 26F and the entrance side of the meeting booth 1 is The distance D3 at the rear of Meeting Booth 1 is narrower than the distance D4 at the rear of Meeting Booth 2. There are.

[0028] In Meeting Booth 1, the back space of the booth (especially the first backrest 16 and the 2) the space between the backrest 26 and the seat back can be made relatively wide. In the first embodiment, the first seat 11 and the first backrest 16 are aligned with respect to the center line CL in a plan view. The second seat 21 and the second backrest 26 are inclined in the same direction with respect to the center line CL. Therefore, the booth seating on the first seat 11 or the second seat 21 facing the back of the booth is The user can naturally lean back against the first backrest 16 or the second backrest 26. Therefore, booth users are requested to inform the booth attendees of the confidentiality of the content of meetings held in the booth. This improves the comfort and sense of security of the meeting booth, and reduces the claustrophobic feeling inside the booth. As a result, a more comfortable meeting can be realized.

[0029] The meeting booth 1 has a first rear panel 100 at the rear side of the meeting booth 1. The first rear end 100N is a rear end of the meeting booth 1 at the second rear panel 200. The third panel 300 is disposed between the second rear end portion 200N, which is the rear side. This will give booth users peace of mind regarding the confidentiality of the content of meetings held in the booth. The sensation can be further improved.

[0030] In addition, when a meeting is held in a shared space, the noise generated during the meeting is generally This can cause stress for those around you who are not part of the meeting, Currently, people prefer to hold meetings in closed spaces such as conference rooms rather than in open spaces. The meeting booth 1 includes a first rear panel 100, a second rear panel 200, and a third rear panel 201. The three panels 300 cover the periphery of the meeting space except for the entrance 400. And by having booth users sit facing the back of the booth and talk, This makes it difficult for sound to leak outside, making shared spaces more comfortable and casual. In addition, such an effect can be achieved by providing the third panel 300. Instead, use walls, glass windows, partitions, etc. in the shared space. Therefore, it can be obtained.

[0031] The meeting booth 1 is located at the rear end of the first bench 10. 10N and the end 20N of the second bench 20 at the rear side of the meeting booth 1, The display 30 may be disposed on a third panel 300. By providing the display 30, various meetings can be The content can be smoothly managed. It also ensures that the meeting participants are aligned. can be carried out.

[0032] The meeting booth 1 is arranged, for example, near the display 30 (at the back of the booth). The booth may be equipped with a camera 31 for capturing images of the inside of the booth. The camera 31 can also be used to hold web conferences, etc.

[0033] The meeting booth 1 is, in plan view, a first seat 11 on a first bench 10. The seat front edge 11F and the first back front edge 16F of the first backrest 16 are parallel to each other, and the second length The second seat front edge 21F of the second seat 21 in the chair 20 and the second back front edge 2 For example, the first bench 1 in the meeting booth 1 may be parallel to the first bench 1 in the meeting booth 1. The first bench 0 and the second bench 20 are each large enough to seat three booth users. The booth users may be arranged in a line in the Y-axis direction in a plan view. Therefore, the person can sit on the first bench 10 with a slight deviation in the X-axis direction. In the booth 1, the booth users located on the side of the entrance 400 can see the display 30 relatively easily. This makes it easier to recognize the booth user, and the camera 31 can capture multiple booth users in its field of view. In Meeting Booth 1, the booths located at the back are also designed to prevent overlapping. This makes it easier for users to face the display 30 and the camera 31.

[0034] The meeting booth 1 includes a first speaker 150 and a The first speaker 250 may be located above the second couch 20. The car 150 and the second speaker 250 are used when conducting a web conference in the booth. Such speakers are described in more detail below.

[0035] In recent years, the number of terminals located in offices and those located at the workplaces of teleworking employees has increased. Hybrid conferences using a network connection are also becoming common, but generally, speakers are used. The volume and quality of the sound emitted from a mobile phone can be more stressful to people around than a human voice. It is easy. By using Meeting Booth 1 in a shared space to hold a web conference, This makes it difficult for the sound emitted from the speaker to leak outside. This allows meetings such as web conferences to be held more easily and comfortably between the two locations. The first speaker 150 and the second speaker 250 may be, for example, a speaker having a relatively strong directivity in output sound. When using speakers that are directional, it is necessary to effectively prevent sound from leaking to the entrance / exit side (corridor side). It can be effectively suppressed.

[0036] In the example shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the third panel 300 is positioned outside the meeting space in the Y-axis direction. a third outer surface 301 which is a surface facing the outside and a third inner surface 302 which is a surface facing the inside of the meeting space. The third outer surface 301 and the third inner surface 302 may be parallel to each other. In the shooting booth 1, the third inner surface 302 of the third panel 300 is aligned in the X-axis direction in a plan view. The third inner surface 302 may be a plane parallel to the XZ plane.

[0037] In the meeting booth 1, the first seat 11 of the first bench 10 and the second seat 20 of the second bench 20 are At least one of the seats 21 is arranged such that the angle between the side edge and the rear edge is an acute angle in a plan view. In the meeting booth 1 of this embodiment, the second bench 20 is Since the first bench 10 has a shape that is symmetrical with respect to the core wire CL, the first bench 1 The following explains 0.

[0038] The outer edge of the first seat 11 in plan view is the side closer to the first rear panel 100, which is referred to as the first inner surface 1 The portion extending in the Y-axis direction along the first seat 11B is called the rear end edge (rear end edge) 11B. In this case, the first seat rear end edge 11B and the first rear end edge 16B may overlap each other. In the second embodiment, the side of the outer edge of the second seat 21 that is closer to the second rear panel 200 in a plan view is called the second inner The portion extending in the Y-axis direction along the surface 202 is referred to as the second seat rear end edge (rear end edge) 21B. In a plan view, the second seat rear end edge 21B and the second rear end edge 26B overlap each other. It's good that it is like that.

[0039] In addition, in a plan view, two joints connecting the first seat rear end edge 11B and the first seat front end edge 11F are provided. Among the side edges, the side edge located on the front side in the Y-axis direction is called the first front edge 11SP, The side edge where the first front edge 11SP and the first rear edge 11SN are placed is referred to as the first rear edge 11SN. Each of the edges 11SN has at least a portion that extends linearly along the X-axis direction. When the angle between the side edge and the rear edge is specified as described above, This applies to the part that extends in a straight line.

[0040] Here, in the meeting booth 1, as described above, the first seat front edge 11F is aligned with the center line CL For the sake of convenience, let us assume that the sofa is a "general sofa G" in plan view. Assume that the seat has a shape in which the front edge and the side edge are perpendicular to each other. 100, the second rear panel 200, and the third panel 300, If a typical bench G is arranged so that its front edge is inclined with respect to the center line CL, The side edge cannot be aligned along the third inner surface 302 of the third panel 300. The first seat 11 of the first bench 10 corresponds to the inclination angle θ1 described above, and is The acute angle between the imaginary extension line of the rear edge 11B of the seat and the imaginary extension line of the first rear edge 11SN is For example, the angle is 90°-θ1. The second inner surface 302 of the panel 300 may be disposed along the second inner surface 302 of the panel 300. In the case where a wall surface or the like provided in the shared space is used instead of providing the third panel 300, This can also be obtained.

[0041] In the meeting booth 1, the rear side edges of the first bench 10 and the second bench 20 are 3. By placing the panel 300 or the wall surface against the first seat 11, The distance between the 11F and the front edge 21F of the second seat 21 is shorter on the entrance side than on the back side. A narrow layout can be easily achieved.

[0042] In addition, the first bench 10 has a symmetrical shape (a symmetrical shape in the width direction in which seated persons are lined up). That is, the end portion 10N on the back side and the end portion 10P on the entrance side may be symmetrical to each other. In this case, the virtual extension line of the first seat rear end edge 11B and the first front end The acute angle between the edge 11SP and the imaginary extension line is, for example, 90°-θ1. By using such a first bench 10, the first bench 10 can be rotated by 180 degrees around the Z axis. 3. The chair can be rotated at 350° to be arranged as a second bench 20. This allows the number of parts used to construct the system 1 to be reduced.

[0043] The meeting booth 1 includes a desk 5 disposed between a first bench 10 and a second bench 20. The top plate 50 of the desk 5 faces the first seat front edge 11F in a plan view. The desk 5 has a first side 51 facing the second seat front edge 21F and a second side 52 facing the second seat front edge 21F. In the plan view, the first side 51 extends along the first seat front edge 11F, and the second The first side 51 and the second side 52 extend along the second seat front edge 21F. Each of them has a linear shape.

[0044] According to the above configuration, between the first bench 10 or the second bench 20 and the top plate 50 of the desk 5 Since a predetermined interval is provided, the first bench 10 and the desk 5 or the second bench 10 and the desk 6 are spaced apart from each other in the booth. This allows booth users to easily move between the chairs 20 and the desks 5.

[0045] In addition, the top plate 50 of the desk 5 faces the third inner surface 302 of the third panel 300 in a plan view. The table top 50 of the desk 5 may have a third side 53 that is aligned in a plane. 3 extends along the inner surface 302. The acute angle between the second side 52 and the third side 53 is, for example, 90°-θ1. This allows the third side 53 to abut against the third panel 300 or a wall surface. By arranging the desk 5, the first bench 10 or the second bench 20 and the table top 50 of the desk 5 It is possible to easily realize a layout having a predetermined interval between the

[0046] (Other configuration examples) The first rear panel 100 has, for example, a cushioning material (sound absorbing material) around the base of a frame or the like. The second rear panel 200 may be arranged on the rear surface of the second rear panel 200 and may be formed by covering the surface with a nonwoven fabric or the like. The same is true for the third panel 300. This reduces sound leakage outside the booth. It can be easily done.

[0047] The camera 31 may have a microphone function. In the example shown in FIGS. A microphone 52 is provided on the table 5. A power supply unit 53 may be provided on the table top 50 of the table 5. The wiring connected to the microphone 52 and the power supply unit 53 may be passed through the inside of the tabletop 50. The wiring to the first speaker 150 may be provided along the rear surface of the top panel 50. The wiring to the second speaker 250 may run through the inside of the panel 100 and through the second rear panel This will make the wiring less visible to booth users. This allows meetings to be held more comfortably.

[0048] The meeting booth 1 may, for example, include a second back panel 200 and a second bench 20. Instead of using a wall in a shared space, create a meeting space. The meeting booth 1 can be formed as a first Speaker 150 and second speaker 250, display 30, camera 31, microphone The power supply unit 52 and the power supply unit 53 are not essential, and this can be easily understood from the above description. can.

[0049] In the meeting booth 1, the first rear panel 100 and the second rear panel 200 The specific form of each of the third panel 300 is not limited to the examples shown in FIGS. For example, the first inner surface 102, the second inner surface 202, and the third inner surface 30 2 may be inclined with respect to the Z-axis direction. The specific configuration of each of the benches 20 and the specific configuration of the desk 5 are shown in Figs. The present invention is not limited to the above example and can be modified as appropriate.

[0050] The third panel 300 is flush with the first rear panel 100 and the second rear panel 200. In the meeting booth 1, the third panel 300 may be omitted as appropriate. That's fine.

[0051] <Panel> Next, in one aspect of the present invention, among the fixtures installed in the shared space, the configuration of the panels The following will explain in detail the first back panel included in the meeting booth 1. The second rear panel 20 of the meeting booth 1 will be described as an example. 0 is a symmetric plane of the YZ plane including the center line CL, with respect to the first rear panel 100 The shape may be spatially symmetrical.

The first bench 10 extends at an angle to the direction in which the surface 101 extends. The flap 16 is disposed along the first inner surface 102 of the first rear panel 100 .

[0093] One end side of the first rear panel 100 is on the entrance / exit 400 side of the meeting booth 1, The other end of the face panel 100 is the back side of the meeting booth 1. When the exhibition booth 1 is constructed, the entrance / exit 400 side of the booth is narrower than the back side, This will increase intimacy within the booth and prevent confidentiality of the contents of meetings held within the booth. This allows booth users to feel secure about anonymity. Also, the back side is made wide. This reduces the feeling of claustrophobia in the booth and makes meetings more comfortable. .

[0094] As described above, the first rear panel 100 has a thickness that gradually decreases from one end side to the other end side in a plan view. a first portion 110 which is the next thinner, and a second portion 120 which is disposed on one end side of the first portion 110; As described above, the first rear panel 100 includes the second portion 120 in a plan view. The inclination angle θ3 of the inner surface 122 with respect to the first outer surface 101 is the first angle θ3 of the inner surface 112 of the first portion 110. The inclination angle θ2 with respect to the first outer surface 101 is larger than the inclination angle θ2 (see FIG. 3). , in a plan view, from one end (the end portion on the one end side) of the first portion 110 to one end (the end portion on the one end side) of the second portion 120 The thickness gradually increases toward the end of the plate (see FIG. 3).

[0095] As described above, the second portion 120 is configured so that the thickness gradually increases from the other end side to the one end side. By providing the first rear panel 100 with the doorway 400 side, the doorway 400 side is narrower than the back side. The meeting booth 1 can be easily constructed. In the example shown in FIG. 1, a wall surface on the entrance 400 side has a normal line that faces the center of the meeting space. This prevents the sound inside the booth from leaking outside the booth, To reassure booth users about the confidentiality of the content of meetings held at the booth. This can be done.

[0096] The meeting booth according to one aspect of the present invention includes a plurality of sofas.
