The arrangement of the plurality of slide bars 15 can provide good support and guidance for the installation rod 14 , thereby effectively reducing the force on the screw rod 12 .

[0025] After the ultraviolet lamp 10 has been used for a period of time, the second motor 11 can be started to drive the screw rod 12 to rotate, and then the screw rod 12 and the ball nut 13 can cooperate to drive the mounting rod 14 to move along the direction of the slide rod 15, so that the annular brush 16 can slide on the outer wall of the ultraviolet lamp 10, and the dust particles adhered to the outer wall of the ultraviolet lamp 10 can be cleaned by the bristles, thereby maintaining the normal operation of the ultraviolet lamp and greatly improving the stability of the sterilization effect of the sterilizer.
