- the fluorescent plate 122 can be removed, by preparing a plurality of fluorescent plates 122 provided with different fluorescent paints, it is possible to irradiate the plant with arbitrary visible light according to the type of plant and the growth state. it can. As described above, since the irradiation light can be changed without replacing the main body of the light emitting panel 120, the work can be performed efficiently.
- the fluorescent plate 122 can be replaced outside the light emitting box without opening the light emitting box 121, its durability is maintained.
- this light emitting panel 120 can efficiently cool the light emitting unit 127 that is a heat source and the inside of the light emitting panel 120 by the pipe 123, the temperature control in the cultivation device 107 is controlled by the temperature sensor. Can be done easily.
- the upper circulation path 109 may be a pipe 109a indicated by an imaginary line.
- the pipe 109a is provided in contact with the back surface of the heat radiating plate 126 of the light emitting panel.
- the pipe 109 a is preferably provided on the back surface of the heat radiating plate 126, in a straight line parallel to the light emitting unit 127 and at the same position as the reflecting plate 130. With this configuration, the light emitting unit 127 can be efficiently cooled by passing the refrigerant through the pipe 109a.
- the light emitting panel 120b of FIG. 23b is one in which the fluorescent paint P is directly provided on the outer surface or the inner surface of the light transmitting body of the light emitting box of FIG. 23a. Compared to FIG. 22a, the irradiation light cannot be changed without removing the light emitting panel. However, it is suitable for temperature adjustment in the cultivation apparatus.
- the light emitting panel 140 in FIG. 23c uses a light emitting diode 141 as a light emitter.
- the light emitting panel 140 includes a heat radiating plate 142, a translucent body 143, and a sealing body 144.
- a space S of the light emitting panel 140 is filled with dry air or inert air. Furthermore, you may fill with a desiccant and / or an oxygen scavenger.
- the heat sink 142 and the sealing body 144 are substantially the same as the heat sink 126 and the sealing body 128 of FIG. 23a, respectively.
- the translucent body 143 should just be transparent.
