Solution Overview
Problem
There is a lack of efficient systems for linking lighting and air-conditioning systems during building construction and installation.
Innovation Solution
A method of constructing a building that involves providing a first wiring for power supply to an air-conditioning device, fixing ceiling members with a hanging member to form a ceiling, and connecting the air-conditioning device to the ceiling wiring, which also supplies power to lighting fixtures through a converter.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If separate installation procedures are used for air-conditioning devices and lighting fixtures, then installation flexibility is maintained, but installation efficiency and system integration are reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines the installation procedures for air-conditioning devices and lighting fixtures into a single integrated process. The support device installed during ceiling construction provides simultaneous mounting points for both device types, and the power supply system is designed to deliver electricity from the air-conditioning device to lighting fixtures through the same ceiling opening, thereby improving installation efficiency while managing system integration complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The support device installed during ceiling construction serves multiple functions: it provides structural support for the air-conditioning device, enables passage of power supply wires through the ceiling, and facilitates subsequent installation of lighting fixtures. This multi-functional approach allows a single installation infrastructure to serve multiple purposes, improving overall productivity.
2Stability of the object's composition
If ceiling members are fixed with hanging members to form a ceiling, then structural stability is improved, but accessibility for wiring and device installation is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The support device is installed during the ceiling construction phase, before the ceiling members are fully assembled. This preliminary installation creates predetermined access points and pathways for power supply wires and other connections, allowing subsequent air-conditioning and lighting devices to be easily connected without compromising the structural stability of the finished ceiling.
Solution Approach 2:
The support device acts as an intermediary element between the ceiling structure and the electrical wiring system. It provides a mounting platform that facilitates wire passage through the ceiling while maintaining the integrity of the ceiling members, thus mediating between structural stability requirements and installation accessibility needs.
3Productivity
If power is supplied from air-conditioning device to lighting fixtures through the same ceiling opening, then installation steps are reduced, but electrical connection complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The electrical connection system is segmented into modular components: the air-conditioning device contains a power supply unit and converter, the support device provides wire passage channels, and the lighting fixtures receive power through connected wiring. This segmentation allows the electrical connection complexity to be distributed across separate functional modules while maintaining rapid installation through the integrated ceiling opening approach.

AI summary
Object:A building that enables lighting and air-conditioning to be effectively linked with each other is configured.Resolution means:An air-conditioning device including a connector receiving portion is installed on a ceiling, and the air-conditioning device and a plurality of lighting fixtures disposed around the air-conditioning device are electrically connected to each other with wirings provided for the number of the plurality of lighting fixtures installed around the air-conditioning device. Further, the air-conditioning device supplies power converted into a power voltage for the lighting fixtures to the plurality of electrically connected lighting fixtures. A wiring that passes through the rear of the ceiling is taken out of an opening of a ceiling member, and is connected to the lighting fixtures, so that the lighting fixtures are installed on the ceiling. An operation unit is operated to collectively control the air-conditioning device and the plurality of lighting fixtures disposed around the air-conditioning device.
