DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0013] 1 to 8 show an example of a soundproof room of the present invention. As shown in Figs. 1 to 7, the soundproof room 11 is formed by a housing 12 and a door 13, has a space that a person can enter, and is installed in places where various people pass through, such as inside a station, an airport, a commercial facility, an exhibition center, an outdoor plaza, inside a store, a hotel, an apartment building, or an office. The soundproof room 11 can also transmit and receive data to and from an external device via a network such as the Internet. A user who uses the soundproof room 11 can use a video conference terminal installed in the soundproof room 11 to hold a video conference with a user who uses an external device having a video conference function.

[0014] The housing 12 is made of materials such as metal, wood, or resin, and is formed into a rectangular parallelepiped with a large overall height dimension, with an opening for users to enter and exit on one side, the front side (FIG. 1). Casters 14 and adjusters 15 are provided on each of the four corners of the bottom surface of the housing 12. After using the casters 14 to move the soundproof room 11 to the installation location, the installer of the soundproof room 11 can fix the soundproof room 11 in a fixed position by adjusting the length of the adjusters 15 so that it is equal to the distance between the bottom surface of the soundproof room 11 and the floor surface.

[0015] Sound-absorbing material 12a is provided on the inside of the housing 12, so that the voice of the user inside the soundproof room 11 and the voice of the user using an external device are unlikely to leak out of the soundproof room 11. Therefore, even if the soundproof room 11 is installed in a public place where an unspecified number of people pass by, the user can safely talk about highly confidential information. In addition, the flooring specifications have a double floor structure with multiple beams interposed to form spaces between the upper and lower floorboards, ensuring the strength necessary for people to enter and exit and for supporting the sofa 16, etc.

[0016] Door 13 is connected to housing 12 so as to be able to close the opening of housing 12, and is configured so as to be able to open and close around the joint portion with housing 12 by operating handle 13a. Door 13 is provided with door glass 13b, which makes it possible to view the inside of soundproof room 11 from the outside.

[0017] A lock (not shown) is provided between the housing 12 and the door 13, and is switched between an unlocked state in which the door 13 can be opened and a locked state in which the door 13 cannot be opened under the control of a control unit (CPU) built into the housing 12. The lock is controlled to unlock or lock the soundproof room 11 by switching between the unlocked state and the closed state by a user's operation from inside the housing 12 or by switching by remote control.

[0018] An operation reception unit 17 that receives user operations is provided on the front side of the housing 12. The operation reception unit 17 is, for example, a display with a touch panel, and receives the planned use time input by the user. The user can select, for example, one of the planned use times of 30 minutes, 60 minutes, and 90 minutes. The fee to be paid is determined according to the planned use time, and power supply to electronic devices installed inside the soundproof room 11 is started from the completion of the payment until the planned use time has elapsed.

[0019] The electronic devices include permanently installed video conference equipment 18, lighting 19 installed on the ceiling 12b of the housing 12, security cameras 20, speakers 21, air conditioning equipment, and computers or mobile terminals brought in by users. The air conditioning equipment ventilates the interior space of the soundproof room and adjusts the internal temperature, and includes, for example, a fan 22 that can suck in air from the room and release it to the outside. The fan 22 creates an updraft when activated, and directs the air in the room from the floor to the ceiling.

[0020] The air conditioning equipment operates from the completion of the payment until the scheduled usage time has elapsed, based on the control by the control unit. These electronic devices are supplied with power via a power plug from a power outlet installed indoors or outdoors. In addition, the user can use the connection port 23 of the electronic device installed in the room as necessary.

[0021] Incidentally, in the soundproof room 11, non-combustible materials are used for the sound absorbing material 12a on the inner walls and the tile material 12c spread on the floor surface from the viewpoint of disaster prevention, but usually, when a new space surrounded by walls is constructed inside a building, additional disaster prevention equipment may be required depending on the degree of sealing. For this reason, an automatic fire extinguishing device 24 is installed on the ceiling 12b of the soundproof room 11 to detect abnormalities early in the event of a fire inside the room and to minimize damage.

[0022] The automatic fire extinguishing device 24 is a downward discharge type fire extinguishing device (sprinkler), and as shown in Fig. 8, is integrally provided with an extinguishing agent container 25 filled with an extinguishing agent, and a discharge nozzle 26 that is provided at the center of the lower end of the extinguishing agent container 25 and can discharge the extinguishing agent into the room upon detection by a built-in heat detector (not shown). A pressure filling port 27 is attached to one side of the discharge nozzle 26, and a pressure gauge (gauge) 28 is attached to the other side. A low melting point metal is used for the heat detector, and when a heat collecting plate 26a at the lower end of the discharge nozzle 26 detects heat from the fire source, the low melting point metal melts and the pressurized gas in the container blows off the sealing plug and the heat collecting plate 26a, starting the discharge of the extinguishing agent.

[0023] Here, the automatic fire extinguishing device 24 is installed in a position that takes into consideration the arrangement of the lighting 19, the speaker 21, the fan 22, and various cover members 29 so as not to lose the functionality of the soundproof room 11 (FIG. 3). In particular, the position of the discharge nozzle 26, i.e., the position of the heat detection unit and the position of the fan 22, are arranged in a side-by-side relationship so that the rising air current formed by the operation of the fan 22 promotes the rise of heat from the fire source. As shown in FIGS. 4 and 6, the discharge nozzle 26 is arranged at a height position of the ceiling 12b, i.e., corresponding to the position of the opening 12d of the ceiling 12b, so that the extinguishing agent container 25 is installed outside the ceiling 12b. The extinguishing agent container 25 is covered by a box-shaped fire extinguisher cover 30, and the extinguishing agent container 25 is detachable from the mounting portion 31 provided on the upper plate 30a of the fire extinguisher cover 30.

[0024] The mounting portion 31 is a pair of fixing metal fittings having mating surfaces that abut in the vertical direction, with the upper metal fitting 31a fixed to the lower surface of the upper plate 30a and the lower metal fitting 31b fixed to the upper surface of the extinguishant container 25. As a result, by inserting the hook 31c of the lower metal fitting 31b into an engagement hole provided in the mating surface of the upper metal fitting 31a and rotating the extinguishant container 25 in the horizontal direction relative to the fire extinguisher cover 30, the hook 31c engages with the upper metal fitting 31a, and the automatic fire extinguisher 24 is fixed inside the fire extinguisher cover 30.

[0025] The fire extinguisher cover 30 is provided at a position retracted inward from the position of the outer wall surface of the housing 12 (FIG. 3). The height dimension of the fire extinguisher cover 30 is formed as small as possible so that the discharge nozzle 26 is aligned with the height position of the ceiling 12b of the soundproof room 11 with the automatic fire extinguisher 24 fixed to the upper plate 30a. On the other hand, the width dimension is also formed as small as possible so as to correspond to the outer diameter dimension of the fire extinguishant container 25.

[0026] In this way, the soundproof room 11 is provided with an integrated automatic fire extinguishing device 24 including a fire extinguishing agent container 25 on the ceiling 12b, so that an initial fire can be quickly put out without relying on human operation. Moreover, the fan 22 installed on the ceiling 12b at the same height as the automatic fire extinguishing device 24 creates an updraft in the soundproof room 11 when activated, accelerating the rise of heat from the fire source and enabling quick and reliable heat detection.

[0027] In addition, since the soundproof room 11 can be transported with the automatic fire extinguishing device 24 still installed on the ceiling 12b, it can be immediately used without the need for any construction work associated with the installation of the soundproof room 11. In other words, the structure of the soundproof room 11 that can easily be installed while exhibiting excellent disaster prevention functions in the event of an emergency can be obtained, thereby promoting the safe use of the soundproof room 11 in the various environments in which it is installed.

[0028] Furthermore, by arranging the discharge nozzle 26 of the automatic fire extinguishing device 24 in accordance with the height position of the ceiling 12b, the extinguishing agent container 25 is provided outside the ceiling 12b, thereby improving the space utilization efficiency within the soundproof room 11. Moreover, coupled with the integrated structure of the automatic fire extinguishing device 24, the fire extinguisher cover 30 can be formed small, so the aesthetic appearance of the soundproof room 11 is not marred and the inconvenience of an increased thickness over the entire area of ​​the ceiling 12b is eliminated.

[0029] In addition, the fire extinguisher cover 30 is provided with the mounting portion 31 to which the extinguishant container 25 can be detached, so that the automatic fire extinguisher 24 can be stably held at the ceiling 12b position. Moreover, since the mounting portion 31 is a pair of fixing metal fittings having mating surfaces that come into contact in the vertical direction, it can be easily attached and detached even if the installation space is limited.

[0030] In addition, since the fire extinguisher cover 30 is provided at a position retracted inward from the position of the outer wall surface of the housing 12, there is no risk of it coming into contact with other structures when installing the soundproof room 11. In particular, even in a situation where the soundproof room 11 must be passed through in an inclined state, such as a place with a narrow entrance inside a building, the position of the fire extinguisher cover 30 can be kept low, allowing for safe and rapid transportation.

[0031] Furthermore, as described above, the reliability of the automatic fire extinguishing device 24 can be improved by the fan 22 installed on the ceiling 12b of the soundproof room 11. In addition, the smoke discharged from the fan 22 allows people outside to become aware of the occurrence of a fire within the soundproof room 11, thereby enabling a rapid and accurate response that is required as an initial action in the event of an emergency.

[0032] The present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiment, and the soundproof room may be equipped with various equipment necessary for disaster prevention in addition to the fire extinguishing equipment, and the installation location may be a moving body such as a railway vehicle, a bus, a taxi, or an airplane. The shape of the housing is not limited to a rectangular parallelepiped, but may be a cylindrical shape, and may be formed with a space that can accommodate not only one person but also two or more people, as long as the advantages of the mobile portable soundproof room are not impaired. Furthermore, the specifications and installation position of the automatic fire extinguishing device can be appropriately changed as long as it is a compact, integrated device installed on the ceiling. In addition, the shape of the fire extinguishing device cover and the installation part can be arbitrary, and the opening on the ceiling surface where the discharge nozzle is located can be covered with a decorative panel or the like. Furthermore, the fan is effective when installed on the ceiling surface, that is, on the same surface as the surface on which the automatic fire extinguishing device is installed, but is not limited to this, and can be appropriately changed, such as being installed on the upper part of the side wall surface, depending on the environment in which the soundproof room is installed.
