Description

Building-type burial tomb with excellent lighting and ventilation

[0001] The present invention relates to a building-type burial tomb with excellent lighting and ventilation, and more specifically, to a building-type burial tomb with a plurality of burial chambers formed in a building-type burial tomb composed of a plurality of floors, so that the bodies of many people can be easily and conveniently buried in the building-type burial tomb, and the front and rear and left and right sides of the building-type burial tomb are open, and the upper part of each burial chamber is open to ensure smooth ventilation of the burial chamber in which the mound is formed, and first and second inclined portions are provided that are inclined at a certain angle on the left and right sides with a building support member vertically installed in the center of the building-type burial tomb as the center, so as to further improve the sunlight penetration of the burial chambers, and to a landscaping space part planted with trees, etc., is formed along the outer perimeter of the building-type burial tomb to improve the appearance of the building-type burial tomb, and to a building-type burial tomb with excellent lighting and ventilation so as to sufficiently supply moisture to the natural grass of the burial mound through a plurality of sprinklers installed on the ceiling above the burial chambers.

[0002] Typically, when burying a body, a separate burial site is secured in advance, and the body is buried in the burial site, forming a mound on top of the cemetery, thereby completing a single tomb. However, competition to secure burial sites has been intensifying recently.

[0003] In particular, since a graveyard area of ​​approximately 5 to 10 pyeong is required to create one grave, not only is a very large area needed when creating many graveyards, but the created graveyards also require a lot of time and effort to maintain, and in most cases, they are perceived as an unpleasant facility by the surrounding area, so there are many difficulties in creating and managing burial graveyards.

[0004] Meanwhile, a recently developed apartment-type burial cemetery, which consists of a multi-layered burial structure with burial chambers and a mound built on top of it to allow multiple corpses to be buried in one cemetery, is known in the Republic of Korea Patent Publication No. 10-2001-0044592.

[0005] The technical configuration is to form a multi-story apartment-type burial structure with multiple coffin chambers having sealed doors on the foundations that are used as multiple burial graves, with a separate drainage wall provided at the rear, and to construct a concrete burial structure with a drainage groove facing the drainage wall formed in the floor of each coffin chamber, and to form a cemetery by stacking a mound on top of the burial structure.

[0006] Therefore, the burial chambers for multiple bodies are constructed in the form of apartments, and then mounds are piled up to form a single cemetery, which can be used as a family tomb or to bury the bodies of multiple people in one place.

[0007] However, the apartment-type burial cemetery as described above has a major drawback in that it simply forms multiple caskets in layers, so the corpses inside the caskets are not properly preserved, as well as not receiving any lighting or ventilation.

[0008] In addition, there are many problems, such as the burial structure being constructed of concrete and each chamber having a permanently sealed door installed on the front, making it difficult to properly visit the graves as the chambers for the bodies are structured like columbariums.

[0009] The present invention has been devised in consideration of the above problems, and its purpose is to form a plurality of burial chambers, each consisting of one, two, three, and four chambers, in a building-type burial tomb consisting of multiple floors, so that the bodies of many people can be buried easily and conveniently in the building-type burial tomb, and also to enable a large number of visitors to the graves to move smoothly along the path formed between the burial chambers on each floor and to visit the graves in the burial chamber installed at the rear of the burial chambers, and in particular, the front and back and left and right sides of the building-type burial tomb are open, and the upper part of each burial chamber is open to ensure smooth ventilation of the burial chamber where the mound is formed, and the burial chambers on the second floor, where sunlight penetration is difficult, are provided with a first inclined portion that is convexly inclined at an angle of 15 to 20 degrees on the left and right sides, centered on a building support that is vertically installed in the center of the building-type burial tomb, and the burial chambers on the third floor or higher are provided with a second inclined portion that is concavely inclined at an angle of 15 to 20 degrees on the left and right sides, thereby improving the sunlight penetration of the burial chambers. The purpose is to further improve the appearance of the building-type burial tomb by forming a landscaped space with trees planted along the outer perimeter of the building-type burial tomb, and to provide a building-type burial tomb with excellent lighting and ventilation that can sufficiently supply moisture to the natural grass of the mound through a number of sprinklers installed on the ceiling above the burial chamber.

[0010] As a technical configuration for achieving the above object, the building-type burial tomb with excellent lighting and ventilation according to the present invention is a building-type burial tomb (100) with open front, back, left and right sides for smooth ventilation, and a building support (120) is vertically installed through an elevator (110) in the center, and a plurality of burial chambers (130) composed of 1 room, 2 rooms, 3 rooms and 4 rooms in the horizontal direction are formed on the first floor of the building-type burial tomb (100), and a first inclined portion (140a) is formed on the second floor of the building-type burial tomb (100) with the left and right sides concavely inclined at an angle of 15 to 20 degrees with the building support (120) as the center for smooth lighting, and the third floor or higher of the building-type burial tomb (100) is also inclined at an angle of 15 to 20 degrees with the left and right sides concavely inclined at an angle of 15 to 20 degrees with the building support (120) as the center for smooth lighting.

[0021] In addition, on the second floor of the building-type burial tomb (100), a first inclined portion (140a) is formed that is convex on the left and right sides at an angle of 15 to 20 degrees centered on the building support (120) for smooth lighting, and on the third floor or higher of the building-type burial tomb (100), a second inclined portion (140b) is formed that is concave on the left and right sides at an angle of 15 to 20 degrees centered on the building support (120) for smooth lighting, while a worship room (160) is provided at the rear of each of the tomb chambers (130) where a worship altar (150) for ancestral rites is installed, and a worship path (170) is formed between each of the tomb chambers (130) for smooth movement of visitors to the tomb.

[0022] On the outer surface of each of the above grave chambers (130), a grave chamber support (180) of a certain height is installed to protect the grave chamber and a transparent synthetic resin protector (190) is installed on the outer surface to ensure smooth lighting. Inside the grave chamber support (180), a coffin (280) containing the body is positioned and filled with yellow soil (200). A burial mound (210) with natural grass planted on the upper surface is integrally formed on the upper surface of the grave chamber (130). At this time, the upper portion of the grave chamber (130) is open to ensure smooth ventilation, and a landscaped space (220) with trees planted on the outer perimeter of the building-type burial tomb (100) is installed with a safety railing (230) interposed therebetween for aesthetic purposes.

[0023] In addition, the present invention provides a chamber separation wall (240) made of transparent synthetic resin for mutual separation of each chamber between two or more chambers (130), and a hinged door (250) is provided behind the ancestral shrine (160) at the rear of the ancestral shrine (130) to allow visual confirmation of the ancestral shrine (130) and entry and exit of visitors, and a lattice fence-shaped ancestral shrine entrance wall (260) is formed with a height of 1.5 m.

[0024] Meanwhile, the height of the grave support (180) installed to protect the grave (130) is 50 cm, and the safety railing (230) of the landscaped space (220) where trees are planted is formed as a lattice fence-shaped safety railing (230) with a height of 1.5 m, and a plurality of sprinklers (270) connected to water pipes are installed on the upper ceiling of the grave (130) to supply moisture to the mound (210) where natural grass is planted.

[0025] The detailed description of each component and function of the building-type burial tomb with excellent lighting and ventilation of the present invention as configured as above is as follows.

[0026] As shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, the building-type burial tomb with excellent lighting and ventilation of the present invention has the front, back, left, and right sides of the building-type burial tomb (100) completely open to ensure smooth ventilation inside the building-type burial tomb (100), and an elevator (110) installed to ascend and descend to the center of the building-type burial tomb (100) is provided, and a building support (120) is vertically installed around the elevator, and a plurality of burial chambers (130) are formed on each floor of the building-type burial tomb (100) to include one chamber, two chambers, three chambers, and four chambers, so that the bodies of many people can be easily and conveniently buried in the building-type burial tomb (100).

[0027] At this time, for the smooth entry and exit of visitors to the grave, the first floor of the building-type burial tomb (100) is formed horizontally, and for the smooth lighting of the second floor, a first inclined portion (140a) is formed with the left and right sides slanted at an angle of 15 to 20 degrees with the building support (120) as the center, and for the third floor and above of the building-type burial tomb (100), a second inclined portion (140b) is formed with the left and right sides slanted at an angle of 15 to 20 degrees with the building support (120) as the center, also for the smooth lighting of the sunlight.

[0028] The reason for this is that the second floor of the building-type burial tomb (100) is a floor where the sunlight shines at a low angle, so that a first inclined portion (140a) is formed with the left and right sides slanted at an angle of 15 to 20 degrees convexly centered on the building support (120) for smooth lighting, and the third floor or higher of the building-type burial tomb (100) has a higher angle at which sunlight shines into the building than the second floor, so that a second inclined portion (140b) is formed with the left and right sides slanted at an angle of 15 to 20 degrees concavely centered on the building support (120) for smooth lighting, so that the sunlight lighting effect can be maximized for the plurality of tomb chambers (130) formed on each floor. At this time, if the inclined portions of the first inclined portion (140a) and the second inclined portion (140b) are slanted at an angle of 15 degrees or less, the sunlight lighting effect cannot be properly obtained due to the lighting angle being too low. Of course, when the second inclined portion (140a) and the second inclined portion (140b) are inclined at an angle of 20 degrees or more, the lighting effect through sunlight can increase, but when installing a plurality of tomb chambers (130) formed on each floor, the tomb chambers (130) are inclined too much, so that they cannot be installed properly. Therefore, as in the present invention, it is preferable that the second floor is formed with a first inclined portion (140a) inclined at an angle of 15 to 20 degrees so that the left and right sides are convex with respect to the building support (120), and the third floor or higher is formed with a second inclined portion (140b) inclined at an angle of 15 to 20 degrees so that the left and right sides are concave with respect to the building support (120).

[0029] Meanwhile, a separate worship room (160) is provided behind each of the multiple tomb chambers (130) formed on each floor, where a worship altar (150) for the ancestral rites of visitors to the grave is installed, and a worship path (170) is formed between each of the tomb chambers (130), thereby inducing smooth movement of visitors to the grave and making it easy to identify the tomb chamber (130) for visiting the grave.

[0030] In addition, a burial chamber support (180) made of concrete and having a height of 50 cm is installed on the outer surface of each of the above-mentioned burial chambers (130) to safely protect the burial chambers (130), and a transparent synthetic resin protection member (190) is installed on the outer surface of the burial chamber support (180) to ensure smooth lighting.

[0031] And, inside the above grave support (180), a coffin (280) in which a body is placed is positioned and filled with yellow soil (200) to maintain the level, and a mound (210) with natural grass planted on the upper surface is integrally formed on the upper part of the grave (130), so as to maintain the grave (130) identical to a graveyard installed on the ground.

[0032] In addition, the upper part of the above-mentioned tomb (130) is made open to ensure smooth ventilation, and a landscaped space (220) planted with trees, etc. is formed on the outer perimeter of the above-mentioned building-type burial tomb (100), and a safety railing (230) in the form of a lattice fence is installed at a height of 1.5 m in the above-mentioned landscaped space (220), thereby improving the appearance of the above-mentioned building-type burial tomb (100).

[0033] Meanwhile, a chamber separation wall (240) made of transparent synthetic resin is formed between two or more chambers (130) installed on each floor of the building-type burial tomb (100) to maintain mutual separation between chambers and to maintain an independent chamber (130) space for each chamber.

[0034] In addition, a number of sprinklers (270) connected to a water pipe are installed on the upper ceiling of the above-mentioned tomb (130) in the mound (210) where natural grass is planted, so that moisture can be smoothly supplied to the natural grass planted in the mound (210).

[0035] While preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described above, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments described above. That is, those skilled in the art will appreciate that numerous modifications and variations to the present invention can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the appended claims, and all such appropriate modifications and equivalents should be considered within the scope of the present invention.
