Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of disinfection cabinet technology, specifically to an intelligent high-irradiance ultraviolet rapid disinfection cabinet. Background Technology
[0002] A disinfection cabinet is a tool that uses ultraviolet light, far-infrared rays, high temperature, ozone, etc., to dry, sterilize, disinfect, and dehumidify items such as tableware, towels, clothing, beauty and hairdressing tools, and medical devices. It is generally cabinet-shaped, with the cabinet body mostly made of stainless steel and the panel made of tempered glass or stainless steel. Ultraviolet (UV) rapid disinfection cabinets are devices that use ultraviolet light to kill bacteria and viruses. They work by emitting ultraviolet radiation into objects or space to destroy the DNA of microorganisms, thereby preventing them from multiplying and spreading in the environment. Ultraviolet light is divided into three types: UVA, UVB, and UVC, with UVC having the strongest bactericidal ability. UV rapid disinfection cabinets generally use UVC ultraviolet light because it is most effective at killing bacteria and viruses. A UV rapid disinfection cabinet is usually a sealed container equipped with ultraviolet lamps inside. When an object is placed inside the cabinet, the ultraviolet lamps emit UVC ultraviolet light, irradiating the surface of the object. This ultraviolet irradiation destroys the genetic material of microorganisms, causing them to lose their vitality or be completely killed. UV rapid disinfection cabinets have certain advantages. First, it can complete the disinfection process in a relatively short time, typically ranging from a few minutes to tens of minutes, which is faster than traditional disinfection methods. Second, the ultraviolet disinfection process does not use chemicals, is environmentally friendly, and leaves no residue on the surface of objects. Furthermore, ultraviolet disinfection can be widely used on various objects and places, such as medical supplies, food, water cups, mobile phones, masks, and public health facilities.
[0003] According to a public disclosure (Publication No.: CN 212997554 U), an intelligent shared ultraviolet disinfection device includes a base, multiple ultraviolet sterilizers, multiple disinfection cabinets, an Internet of Things (IoT) module, a core control board, a power supply, and an air quality detection module. The IoT module, core control board, power supply, and air quality detection module are all housed within the base. The disinfection cabinets are mounted on the base, and the air quality detection module is electrically connected to the core control board. Each disinfection cabinet includes a storage cabinet and a rapid disinfection cabinet. Each ultraviolet sterilizer is housed in a storage cabinet, and each rapid disinfection cabinet contains an ultraviolet disinfection lamp. The advantages of this invention, based on the above technical solution, are: users can choose to take the ultraviolet sterilizer with them or disinfect on-site according to their individual needs, enabling the sharing of ultraviolet sterilizers and reducing operating costs; the air circulation module, in conjunction with the ultraviolet disinfection lamps, can sterilize and disinfect the surrounding environment. The aforementioned application utilizes components such as storage disinfection cabinets and rapid disinfection cabinets to enable users to choose to take away the ultraviolet disinfection device or perform on-site disinfection according to their individual needs. This allows for the sharing of ultraviolet disinfection devices and reduces usage costs. However, the disinfection cabinets are difficult to demonstrate their intelligent function through automatic heating or energy saving by absorbing natural energy during use, which requires further improvement and enhancement. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides an intelligent high-irradiance ultraviolet rapid disinfection cabinet, solving the problems mentioned in the background section. To achieve the above objectives, this invention is implemented through the following technical solution: An intelligent high-irradiance ultraviolet rapid disinfection cabinet includes a cabinet body, with a solar-powered automatic heating device installed on the top of the cabinet body; the solar-powered automatic heating device includes a rotating shaft, the side of which is rotatably mounted on the top of the cabinet body; an arc-shaped rod is fixedly connected to the side wall of the rotating shaft; a solar photovoltaic panel is fixedly connected to the other end of the arc-shaped rod; a baffle is fixedly connected to the side wall of the rotating shaft; a telescopic airbag is fixedly connected to the top of the cabinet body; and the bottom of the baffle is located on the displacement trajectory of the telescopic airbag. When the cabinet is placed outdoors, the telescopic airbag at the top of the cabinet will be affected by the weather. When the weather clears up, the telescopic airbag will heat up and expand due to thermal expansion and contraction. During the expansion, it will come into contact with the side of the baffle fixed on the side of the rotating shaft. The baffle is squeezed by the telescopic airbag. Because the rotating shaft is installed at the top of the cabinet, the baffle will drive the rotating shaft to rotate. During the rotation of the shaft, the arc-shaped rod fixed on the side will rotate, which in turn will drive the solar photovoltaic panel fixed at the top of the arc-shaped rod to rotate, extend and absorb the power of sunlight to disinfect the objects to be disinfected inside the disinfection cabinet. When the weather clears up, the telescopic airbag will retract, and the baffle will no longer be in contact with the pressure of the telescopic airbag. The rotating shaft will be driven by the torsion spring on the outer wall to return the solar photovoltaic panel to the inside of the photovoltaic panel groove.
[0005] Preferably, a torsion spring is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating shaft, and the other end of the torsion spring is fixedly installed on the top of the cabinet. The main function of the torsion spring is to automatically return the rotating shaft to its original position when the telescopic airbag does not apply force to the side of the baffle.
[0006] Preferably, the top of the cabinet has a photovoltaic panel groove, the groove being larger than the diameter of the arc-shaped rod and the solar photovoltaic panel. The photovoltaic panel groove allows the solar photovoltaic panel to automatically move into the groove for protection when it is not in operation.
[0007] Preferably, a protective device is provided on the side of the solar photovoltaic panel. The protective device includes a lever, which is fixedly installed on the side of the solar photovoltaic panel. One end of a lifting rod passes through one side of the cabinet and is rotatably connected to the lifting rod. One end of the lifting rod is located on the displacement trajectory of the lever. A hinge block is fixedly connected to the other end of the lifting rod. A connecting rod is hinged to the end of the hinge block away from the lifting rod. A cover plate is fixedly connected to the side of the connecting rod. A stop block is fixedly connected to the side of the cabinet. When the solar photovoltaic panel is reset, it will cause a fixed lever on one side to rotate. When the solar photovoltaic panel is reset and rotated to a certain position, the lever will actuate the top of one end of a lifting rod that passes through the cabinet. The lifting rod, impacted by the lever, will rotate downwards, causing the hinge block fixed to the other end of the lifting rod to rise. At this time, the connecting rod fixed to the other side of the hinge block will also rise. During this rise, the contact block fixed to the side of the connecting rod will contact a stop fixed to the side wall of the cabinet. The contact block will be compressed, causing the connecting rod hinged to the other side of the hinge block to rotate. This rotation will then cause the cover plate fixed to the side to rotate, covering the top of the photovoltaic panel groove in the top of the cabinet. The protective device is designed to automatically protect the top of the solar photovoltaic panel when it rotates into the photovoltaic panel groove, preventing it from being impacted by rain or external forces.
[0008] Preferably, the top of the photovoltaic panel trough is located on the displacement trajectory of the cover plate, and the diameter of the cover plate is larger than the diameter of the photovoltaic panel trough. The larger diameter of the cover plate allows it to better seal the top of the photovoltaic panel trough during rotation, thus protecting the solar photovoltaic panels inside the trough.
[0009] Preferably, a contact block is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting rod, and the contact block contacts the side of the stop block along its displacement trajectory. The design of the contact block is mainly to ensure that the connecting rod is contacted by one side of the stop block during displacement.
[0010] Preferably, an alarm device is installed on the side of the cabinet. The alarm device includes a fixed rod, one side of which is fixedly installed on the side of the cabinet, and the other side of which is rotatably connected to an L-shaped connecting plate. One end of the L-shaped connecting plate is fixedly connected to a water collection tank, and an alarm is fixedly connected to the side of the cabinet. When heavy rain and severe convective weather occur, the water collection tank fixed to the top of one end of the L-shaped connecting plate, which rotates on one side of the fixed rod, will quickly collect rainwater. This causes a sudden increase in the weight on the right side of the L-shaped connecting plate, resulting in a weight mismatch between the two ends of the L-shaped connecting plate. This causes the right end of the L-shaped connecting plate to descend while the left end rises. Consequently, the top of the left end of the L-shaped connecting plate contacts and presses against a switch located at the bottom of the alarm during the displacement process. When the switch is pressed, the alarm is activated. The alarm device is designed primarily to automatically alert staff during heavy rain, thereby helping them to properly move the disinfection cabinet body in the event of rain and prevent internal components from being corroded by rainwater.
[0011] Preferably, a switch is provided at the bottom of the alarm, and the bottom of the switch is located on the displacement trajectory of the other end of the L-shaped connecting plate. This switch design is mainly to ensure that the alarm is activated by the pressure of the L-shaped connecting plate during rotation.
[0012] Preferably, a second torsion spring is fixedly connected to the side of the L-shaped connecting plate, and the other end of the second torsion spring is fixedly sleeved on the fixing rod. The main function of the second torsion spring is to automatically reset the L-shaped connecting plate due to the torsional force of the torsion spring when the weight of the L-shaped connecting plate ensures parallelism.
[0013] This invention provides an intelligent high-irradiance ultraviolet rapid disinfection cabinet. It has the following beneficial effects:
[0014] (1) This application achieves the function of automatically raising the solar photovoltaic panel to absorb solar energy when the weather is sunny, and automatically retracting the solar photovoltaic panel when it rains to avoid damage from external forces. This achieves the intelligent absorption of photovoltaic energy while ensuring the long-term use of the device.
[0015] (2) This application achieves the function of automatically sealing the top of the photovoltaic panel groove when the solar photovoltaic panel is inserted into the photovoltaic panel groove, by rotating the lever while the solar photovoltaic panel is inserted into the photovoltaic panel groove, and cooperating with the lifting rod, hinge block and other components inside the protective device. This further avoids the solar photovoltaic panel from being affected by rainwater and external forces, and improves the protective effect.
[0016] (3) This application achieves the function of activating the alarm by pressing the switch at one end of the L-shaped connecting plate during severe convective weather, which is achieved by the interaction of the gravity of the rain and the components such as the fixed rod and L-shaped connecting plate inside the alarm device. This enables the indoor staff to move the cabinet in time under severe conditions, thus avoiding damage to the cabinet components from the impact of rainwater. Attached Figure Description

[0024] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments.
[0025] Example 1
[0026] Please see Figure 1-5A smart high-irradiance ultraviolet rapid disinfection cabinet includes a cabinet body 1. A solar-powered automatic heating device 2 is installed on the top of the cabinet body 1. The solar-powered automatic heating device 2 includes a rotating shaft 21, which is rotatably mounted on the top of the cabinet body 1. An arc-shaped rod 22 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the rotating shaft 21, and a solar photovoltaic panel 23 is fixedly connected to the other end of the arc-shaped rod 22. A baffle 24 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the rotating shaft 21. A telescopic airbag 27 is fixedly connected to the top of the cabinet body 1, and the bottom of the baffle 24 is located on the displacement trajectory of the telescopic airbag 27. A torsion spring 25 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating shaft 21, and the other end of the torsion spring 25 is fixedly mounted on the top of the cabinet body 1. The function of the torsion spring 25 is mainly to ensure that when the telescopic airbag 27 does not exert force on one side of the baffle 24, the rotating shaft 21 will be subjected to the torsional force of the torsion spring 25 and automatically spring back to its original position. The top of the cabinet 1 has a photovoltaic panel groove 26, which is larger than the diameter of the arc rod 22 and the solar photovoltaic panel 23. The photovoltaic panel groove 26 allows the solar photovoltaic panel 23 to automatically enter the groove for protection when it is not working.
[0027] When the cabinet 1 is placed outdoors, the telescopic airbag 27 on the top of the cabinet 1 will be affected by the weather. When the weather clears up, the telescopic airbag 27 will be heated and expand due to thermal expansion and contraction. During the expansion, it will come into contact with the side of the baffle 24 fixed on the side of the rotating shaft 21. The baffle 24 will be squeezed by the telescopic airbag 27. Because the rotating shaft 21 is mounted on the top of the cabinet 1, the baffle 24 will drive the rotating shaft 21 to rotate. During the rotation, the rotating shaft 21 will drive the arc rod 22 fixed on the side to rotate, which will drive the solar photovoltaic panel 23 fixed on the top of the arc rod 22 to rotate and extend to absorb the power of sunlight to disinfect the objects to be disinfected inside the disinfection cabinet. When the weather clears up, the telescopic airbag 27 will retract, and the baffle 24 will no longer be in contact with the pressure of the telescopic airbag 27. The rotating shaft 21 will be driven by the torsion spring 25 on the outer wall to return the solar photovoltaic panel 23 to the inside of the photovoltaic panel groove 26.
[0028] Example 2
[0029] Please see Figure 1-6Based on Embodiment 1, a protective device 3 is provided on the side of the solar photovoltaic panel 23. The protective device 3 includes a lever 31, which is fixedly installed on the side of the solar photovoltaic panel 23. One end of a lifting rod 32 passes through one side of the cabinet 1 and is rotatably connected to it. One end of the lifting rod 32 is located on the displacement trajectory of the lever 31. A hinge block 33 is fixedly connected to the other end of the lifting rod 32. A connecting rod 34 is hinged to the end of the hinge block 33 away from the lifting rod 32. A cover plate 35 is fixedly connected to the side of the connecting rod 34. A stop block 36 is fixedly connected to the side of the cabinet 1. The protective device 3 is designed to automatically protect the top of the solar photovoltaic panel 23 when it rotates into the photovoltaic panel groove 26, preventing the top of the solar photovoltaic panel 23 from being impacted by rainwater or external forces. The top of the photovoltaic panel groove 26 is located on the displacement trajectory of the cover plate 35, and the diameter of the cover plate 35 is larger than the diameter of the photovoltaic panel groove 26. The diameter of the cover plate 35 is larger than the diameter of the photovoltaic panel groove 26, allowing the cover plate 35 to better seal the top of the photovoltaic panel groove 26 during rotation, thus protecting the solar photovoltaic panels 23 inside the photovoltaic panel groove 26. A contact block 37 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting rod 34, and the contact block 37 contacts the side of the stop block 36 along its displacement trajectory. The design of the contact block 37 is mainly to ensure that the connecting rod 34 is contacted by one side of the stop block 36 during displacement.
[0030] In use, based on Embodiment 1, when the solar photovoltaic panel 23 is reset, it will drive the fixed lever 31 on one side to rotate. When the solar photovoltaic panel 23 is reset and rotated to a certain position, the lever 31 will rotate and pass through the top of one end of the lifting lever 32 on one side of the cabinet 1. The lifting lever 32 will be impacted by the lever 31 and will move downward and rotate, thereby driving the hinge block 33 fixed at the other end of the lifting lever 32 to rise. At this time, the connecting rod 34 fixed on the other side of the hinge block 33 will rise along with the lifting of the hinge block 33. During the lifting process, the contact block 37 fixed on the side of the connecting rod 34 will contact the stop block 36 fixed on the side wall of the cabinet 1. The contact block 37 will be squeezed, driving the connecting rod 34 hinged on the other side of the hinge block 33 to rotate. During the rotation of the connecting rod 34, the cover plate 35 fixed on the side will rotate and cover the top of the photovoltaic panel groove 26 opened at the top of the cabinet 1.
[0031] Example 3
[0032] Please see Figure 1-6Based on Embodiment 2, an alarm device 4 is added. The alarm device 4 is installed on the side of the cabinet 1 and includes a fixing rod 41. One side of the fixing rod 41 is fixedly installed on the side of the cabinet 1, and the other side of the fixing rod 41 is rotatably connected to an L-shaped connecting plate 42. One end of the L-shaped connecting plate 42 is fixedly connected to a water collection tank 43, and an alarm 44 is fixedly connected to the side of the cabinet 1. The design of the alarm device 4 is mainly to automatically alert staff in case of heavy rain, thereby helping staff to properly move the disinfection cabinet body in the rain and avoid corrosion of internal components by rainwater. A switch 45 is provided at the bottom of the alarm 44, and the bottom of the switch 45 is located on the displacement trajectory of the other end of the L-shaped connecting plate 42. This design of the switch 45 is mainly to ensure that the alarm 44 is activated by the pressure of the L-shaped connecting plate 42 during rotation. A torsion spring 46 is fixedly connected to the side of the L-shaped connecting plate 42, and the other end of the torsion spring 46 is fixedly sleeved on the fixing rod 41. The main function of the second torsion spring 46 is to automatically reset the L-shaped connecting plate 42 due to the torsion force of the second torsion spring 46 when the weight of the L-shaped connecting plate 42 ensures parallelism.
[0033] In use, based on Embodiment 2, when a heavy rain and severe convective weather occurs, the water collection tank 43 fixed at the top of one end of the L-shaped connecting plate 42 on one side of the fixed rod 41 will quickly collect rainwater, causing a sudden increase in the weight on the right side of the L-shaped connecting plate 42. This results in a weight mismatch between the two ends of the L-shaped connecting plate 42, which in turn causes the right end of the L-shaped connecting plate 42 to descend and the left end to rise. Consequently, the top of the left end of the L-shaped connecting plate 42 will contact and press against the switch 45 located at the bottom of the alarm 44 during the displacement process. When the switch 45 is pressed, the alarm 44 is activated, alerting the staff to quickly move the disinfection cabinet.
[0034] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in the present invention, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, should be covered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
