A head-side inflow/outflow unit (60) and a foot-side inflow/outflow unit
(70), which have a respective outlet opening (61, 71) for providing a
supply of conditioned air to a sleeping compartment (11) within a capsule
main body (20) and a respective inlet opening (62, 72), associated with
the outlet opening (61, 71), for drawing in internal air of the sleeping
compartment (11), are provided. The air-conditioning capacity of
conditioned air supplied through each of the outlet openings (61, 71) is
controlled such that the temperature of conditioned air supplied through
the outlet opening (61) of the head-side inflow/outflow unit (60) falls
below the temperature of conditioned air supplied through the outlet
opening (71) of the foot-side inflow/outflow unit (70). In the head-side
inflow/outflow unit (60), the inlet opening (62) is situated below the
outlet opening (61), while on the other hand in the foot-side
inflow/outflow unit (70) the inlet opening (72) is situated above the
outlet opening (71), thereby producing flow of an air current causing a
short-circuit between the outlet opening (61, 71) and the inlet opening
(62, 72).
