PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a storage compartment capable of efficiently radiating near infrared ray, and to provide a near infrared ray radiation unit.SOLUTION: A storage compartment includes a storage compartment body and a near infrared ray radiation part. The storage compartment body includes a storage part for storing a plant. The near infrared ray radiation part includes a light distribution part for changing a light distribution angle toward at least part of a region inside the storage part and radiates near infrared ray having a center wavelength within a range of 700 nm to 2500 nm inside the storage part.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1COPYRIGHT: (C)2018,JPO&INPIT【課題】近赤外光を効率的に照射することができる貯蔵庫および近赤外光照射ユニットを提供することである。【解決手段】実施形態の貯蔵庫は、貯蔵庫本体と、近赤外光照射部とを持つ。前記貯蔵庫本体は、植物が貯蔵される貯蔵部を有する。前記近赤外光照射部は、前記貯蔵部の内部の少なくとも一部の領域に向けて光の配光角を変える光配光部を有し、中心波長が700nm~2500nmの範囲内の近赤外光を前記貯蔵部の内部に照射する。【選択図】図1
