Here, the light source unit 1401 may be provided in the support module 407, and the light transmitted from the light source unit 1401 passes through the support housing 1007 formed of a phosphorescent plate, and through the light extraction hole 1003. It is sent out to the inside of the rotary housing 1005.

Due to this configuration of the light emitting module, the companion animal can continuously move and move after the light transmitted to the inside of the rotating housing 1005 through the light extraction hole 1003.

Meanwhile, referring to FIG. 15, the light emitting module 1500 includes an optical fiber line part 1501 provided between the rotating housing 1005 and the support housing 1007; And a light source unit 1503 for transmitting light toward the optical fiber line unit 1501, wherein the light transmitted from the light source unit 1503 passes through the optical fiber line unit 1501 and a light extraction hole 1003 ) Is sent to the inside of the rotary housing 1005.

The optical fiber line part 1501 is provided between the rotating housing 1005 and the support housing 1007, and the optical fiber line part 1501 uses a glass having a high refractive index in the center and a glass having a low refractive index in the outer part. It is composed of optical fibers that allow total reflection to occur.

The light source unit 1503 transmits light toward the optical fiber line unit 1501, and the light source unit 1503 may be provided in the support module 407, for example.

Of course, the support housing 1007 is formed of a transparent or translucent material so that the light transmitted from the light source unit 1503 reaches the optical fiber line unit 1501.

Due to this configuration of the light-emitting module 1500, the companion animal can continuously move and move after the light transmitted to the inside of the rotating housing 1005 through the light extraction hole 1003.

As described above, according to an embodiment of the present invention, there is an effect of inducing a companion animal's gaze or causing interest, so that the companion animal can continuously exercise for a long time in a narrow indoor space.
