To provide a dead body storage device capable of storing a dead body in a non-frozen state without applying particular processing to a coffin.SOLUTION: The device comprises: a dead body storage 10 which defines an internal space in which a coffin CK containing a dead body can be stored, the internal space being insulated thermally from the external environment; internal temperature control means which circulates cold air in the internal space and controls the temperature in the internal space to a set temperature in the range of -4°C or higher and lower than 0°C; space potential generating means which discharges static electricity from electrostatic discharge means 53 installed in the internal space into the internal space and forms an electric field in the internal space; and sterilization and deodorization means 55 which reduces bacteria and odor in the internal space. A cylindrical roller 61 which supports a coffin via a cylindrical roller member supported rotatably is provided on the bottom surface part of the dead body storage 10.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3【課題】棺に特別な加工を施すことなく遺体を非凍結状態で保存することが可能な遺体保存装置を提供する。【解決手段】外部環境から断熱された、遺体が入れられた棺CKを収納可能な庫内空間を画定する遺体収納庫10と、庫内空間に冷気を循環させて庫内空間の温度を-4℃以上0℃未満の設定温度に制御する庫内温度制御手段と、庫内空間に設置される静電気放出手段53から庫内空間に静電気を放出して庫内空間に電場を形成する空間電位発生手段と、庫内空間において細菌および臭気を減少させる除菌・脱臭手段55とを備える。遺体収納庫10内の底面部には、回転自在に軸支された円筒状のローラ部材を介して棺を支持する円筒ローラ61が設けられる。【選択図】図3
