Summary of footbaths, diesel displays, architectural ideas, etc. at the Yanmar Museum, a hands-on experience learning the spirit of challenge



There is also a space where you can learn about the history of diesel and the “future” using the latest technology at the Yanmar Museum , where you can play with excavators, bouldering and play with your body. So, after moving and eating, I tried to put together a footbath, a museum shop, etc., focusing on the “Learning” corner.

You can read how to get to the Yanmar Museum and the challenge area on the first floor from the following article.

I went to the renewed `` Yanmar Museum '' where you can play and experience Yanmar's engines and construction machines-GIGAZINE



As you go up the stairs ...



The second floor was a passage that surrounded the atrium on the first floor.



Looking down on the first floor.



A display and chair are installed in the aisle so that you can enjoy video content here as well.



On the wall was written the life that Yanmar's founder, Mr. Yamaoka Sonkichi, took.



'Meeting with diesel engines'



'Thoughts for hometown'



The history of Yanmar is recorded in 1981, including photos of his Imperial Highness Prince and Princess Crown Prince's visit to the Nagahama Factory.



As we went through the passage, the engine that was once used was on display. In December 1933, Yanmar succeeded in reducing the size and weight of a diesel engine, which was considered impossible at that time. This will dramatically change the work of farmers who were forced to work hard. Engines are on display to inherit the founder's DNA, which continues to challenge until it becomes impossible.



This was the first horizontal water-cooled diesel engine 'HB type' that was successfully developed on December 23.



The slightly smaller diesel engine placed next to it is 'K type'. This is another horizontal diesel engine that has been around since the dawn of Yanmar.



There is also an advanced diesel engine. The following is the 4TNE98 type that appeared in 1993. Improved type with cleaner exhaust gas and reduced noise.



When you turn a corner ...



This time it was written about Yanmar's “future” and future technology. 'Y-Energy' that realizes maximum and optimum energy with minimum environmental load, 'Y-Robotics' that realizes maximum work effect with minimum manpower, and 'Y-' that obtains the most delicious and safe food with minimum energy Yanmar's technology concept is “Cultivation”, “Y-Experience” that realizes the best excitement with cutting-edge solutions, and “Y-Quality” that provides the highest level of security and comfort with the least load.



In addition, there is an energy monitor that displays the energy generation and usage status of the Yanmar Museum in real time ...



It explained what kind of ingenuity is being done in the hall for

sustainability . There is a water basin around the building, but it is said that natural lighting due to reflected light is incorporated into the building, reducing the number of lighting dividends. In addition, the rooftop is greened to reduce the solar radiation load, creating a heat insulation effect without escaping the air conditioning inside the building.



In addition, energy efficiency and groundwater saving are being carried out.



As I continued walking down the aisle, I found an exit where I could actually go out to the green rooftop.



This place called “Biotop on the roof” is said to be able to play using a tablet. Receive a tablet from the staff near the exit ...



Go outside.



Then I found someone who was pointing the tablet camera at something.



The biotope has multiple QR codes installed like this, and it seems that it is being read by the camera. If you actually try it ...



Information on creatures in the waterside is displayed.



There is also a footbath called 'Oniyama no Yu'.



It is also a good idea to soak in the footbath while you are getting cooler.



Since the bench is also placed, it is ant to take a break while looking at the view of Nagahama.



After enjoying the 2nd floor, return to the 1st floor again. At the Yanmar Museum Shop next to the entrance, new merchandise has also appeared at the time of renewal.



Mugs and bags with tractor illustrations sublimated the existence of agricultural machines into fashionable items.



Magnet and ...



Mug



Ballpoint pen



Agricultural machinery is a high-quality hand towel



Various types of sauces were also sold as premium Marche brands.



Seeds of herbs and vegetables




3D paper puzzle etc.



Of course, there was Onyanma, the symbol of Yanmar.



In addition, there is a rest space like this on the first floor, but as explained on the wall on the second floor, it was a comfortable space with a soft and fluffy light due to the natural light reflected on the basin.



When I went around the hall, I realized that the focus on the “future” was more focused than before the renewal, including the increase in the number of hands-on content that children can enjoy. The entrance fee for the Yanmar Museum is 600 yen for adults, 300 yen for elementary and junior high school students, and free for preschoolers. Opening hours are from 10:00 to 18:00, and closed days are Mondays. You can play with your head and body in various activities and contents, and you can also enjoy meals that are particular about ingredients, so it seems that children and adults can spend time.
