[0042] Embodiment I

[0043] With reference to Figures 1 to 3 , wherein, Figure 2 The dashed line in represents the ultraviolet light p1.

[0044] The photocatalyst air purification device comprises a photocatalyst filter screen 200 and an LED lamp 400.

[0045] The photocatalyst filter screen 200 is used to sterilize and disinfect the air flowing therethrough.

[0046] The LED lamp 400 is used to emit ultraviolet light, and the angle between the LED lamp 400 and the photocatalyst filter screen 200 is adjustable, so that the ultraviolet light can completely cover the photocatalyst filter screen.

[0047] By adjusting the angle between the LED lamp 400 and the photocatalyst filter screen 200, the effective irradiation area of the ultraviolet light on the photocatalyst filter screen 200 is increased, thereby improving the sterilization and disinfection effect on the air.

[0048] Specifically, the outer periphery (i.e., the side) of the photocatalyst filter screen 200 is fixedly provided with a frame 100, which serves as a mounting carrier for the photocatalyst filter screen 200, so that the photocatalyst filter screen 200 can be fixed flat and reliably.

[0049] In the first embodiment, the photocatalyst filter screen 200 is rectangular in shape, and correspondingly, the frame 100 is also rectangular in shape.

[0050] The frame 100 is provided with a bracket 300, and the bracket 300 is provided with the LED lamp 400.

[0051] One of the purposes of the embodiment one is to make the ultraviolet light emitted by the LED lamp 400 completely cover the photocatalyst filter screen 200 by adjusting the included angle between the LED lamp 400 and the photocatalyst filter screen 200, increase the effective irradiation area of the ultraviolet light on the photocatalyst filter screen 200, and improve the sterilization and disinfection effect on the air.

[0052] Since the LED lamp 400 is arranged at the outer periphery of the photocatalyst filter screen 200 and has a certain included angle with the photocatalyst filter screen 200, the influence on the air volume at the air outlet or the air return port of the air conditioner can be reduced as much as possible while ensuring the ultraviolet light irradiation to the photocatalyst filter screen 200.

[0053] The device has simple structure and is easy to adjust, and the air purification effect of the photocatalyst air purification device on the air can be improved without increasing the size of the device.

[0054] The LED lamp 400 includes a UVA lamp and a UVC lamp, both of which are fixedly arranged on the bracket 300. The UVA lamp can emit UVA ultraviolet light, and the UVC lamp can emit UVC ultraviolet light.

[0055] The photocatalyst filter screen 200 can realize the sterilization and disinfection effect on the air under the irradiation and excitation of the UVA ultraviolet light, and the UVC ultraviolet light can directly act on viruses, bacteria and the like in the air to achieve the sterilization and disinfection effect.

[0056] By adjusting the included angle between the LED lamp 400 and the photocatalyst filter screen 200, that is, adjusting the included angle between the UVA ultraviolet light, the UVC ultraviolet light and the photocatalyst filter screen 200, the UVA ultraviolet light and the UVC ultraviolet light can completely cover the photocatalyst filter screen 200. In this way, the effective area of the photocatalyst filter screen 200 can be irradiated and excited by the UVA ultraviolet light, thereby improving the sterilization and disinfection effect; at the same time, the air flowing through the photocatalyst filter screen 200 can also be irradiated by the UVC ultraviolet light to achieve all-round sterilization and disinfection. Under the dual action of the UVA ultraviolet light and the UVC ultraviolet light, the air flowing through the photocatalyst filter screen 200 can be more thoroughly sterilized and disinfected.

[0057] The number of the UVA lamp and the UVC lamp can be flexibly set according to the area size of the photocatalyst filter screen 200, the sterilization requirement and the like, and the embodiment is not limited in particular.

[0058] Referring to Figure 3 The bracket 300 includes a first bracket 310 and a second bracket 320, the first bracket 310 is rotationally connected with the second bracket 320, the first bracket 310 is connected with the frame 100, and the second bracket 320 is connected with the LED lamp 400. The rotation between the first bracket 310 and the second bracket 320 can realize the adjustment of the irradiation angle of the ultraviolet light.

[0059] Further, the first support 310 comprises a first support part 311 and a first support part 312, and the first support part 311 and the first support part 312 are preferably integrally formed, and the first support part 311 is preferably in sliding connection with the frame 100.

[0060] By sliding the first support part 311 along the frame 100, the position of the LED lamp 400 can be adjusted.

[0061] According to the size of the photocatalyst filter screen 200, the positions of the LED lamps 400 on the frame 100 can be flexibly adjusted, so as to realize complete coverage of the photocatalyst filter screen 200 by the ultraviolet light.

[0062] The second support 320 comprises a second support part 321 and a second support part 322, and the second support part 321 and the second support part 322 are preferably integrally formed, the second support part 321 is fixedly connected with the LED lamp 400, and the second support part 322 is in rotational connection with the first support part 312.

[0063] The rotational connection between the second support part 322 and the first support part 312 preferably adopts a rotational connection mode of a bolt, and specifically, the second support part 322 and the first support part 312 are each provided with a bolt through hole (not shown), a first bolt 340 is threaded through the bolt through hole, and one end of the first bolt 340 is locked by a first nut (not shown).

[0064] When adjusting, the first nut is loosened first, so that the second support part 322 and the first support part 312 can rotate relative to the bolt column of the first bolt 340, and when the LED lamp 400 is adjusted to the right position, the first nut is tightened, so that the LED lamp 400 can be fixed at the specific position and is not easy to shake.

[0065] The sliding connection between the first support part 311 and the frame 100 preferably adopts a sliding connection mode of a slide rail, and specifically, each side of the rectangular frame 100 is provided with a slide groove 110 along the length direction thereof, and the bottom surface of the first support part 311 is provided with a slide rail 330, and the slide rail 330 is in sliding connection with the slide groove 110.

[0066] In other embodiments, the first support part 311 and the frame 100 can be fixedly connected by buckles, screws, etc., and a plurality of buckle fastening positions or screw fastening positions can be arranged on each side of the frame 100, and the first support part 311 can be fixedly installed on the specified buckle fastening position or screw fastening position, so as to adjust the position of the LED lamp 400.

[0067] Further, when the bracket 300 is moved to a suitable position on the frame 100, the first bracket part 311 is fixedly connected with the frame 100 through the second bolt 350, so that the bracket 300 is fixed on the frame 100 more reliably and is not easy to move.

[0068] In the embodiment one, the first bracket part 311 and the second bracket part 312 are preferably arranged perpendicularly to each other, and the second bracket part 321 and the second bracket part 322 are also preferably arranged perpendicularly to each other, and the LED lamp 400 is fixedly arranged at the end of the second bracket part 321, so that the included angle between the LED lamp 400 and the photocatalyst filter screen 200 can be adjusted theoretically between 0-180°.

[0069] In actual use, in order to enable the ultraviolet light to irradiate on the photocatalyst filter screen 200, the included angle between the LED lamp 400 and the photocatalyst filter screen 200 should be between 0-90°.

[0070] Figure 4 The figure is a structural schematic diagram of the included angle between the LED lamp 400 and the photocatalyst filter screen 200, the included angle between the LED lamp 400 and the photocatalyst filter screen 200 is marked as α, and the acute included angle between the second bracket part 322 and the first bracket part 312 is also α.

[0071] When adjusting, the size of the α angle is adjusted according to the area of the photocatalyst filter screen 200.

[0072] If the area of the photocatalyst filter screen 200 is small, the second bracket 320 is rotated towards the direction close to the photocatalyst filter screen 200, the LED lamp 400 is closer to the photocatalyst filter screen 200, the α angle is increased, so that the ultraviolet light can completely cover the photocatalyst filter screen 200 while also enhancing the light intensity, which is helpful to further improve the sterilization and disinfection effect.

[0073] If the area of the photocatalyst filter screen 200 is large, the second bracket 320 is rotated towards the direction away from the photocatalyst filter screen 200, the LED lamp 400 is away from the photocatalyst filter screen 200, the α angle is decreased, so that the ultraviolet light emitted by the plurality of LED lamps 400 can completely cover the photocatalyst filter screen 200, and the sterilization and disinfection effect is improved.

[0074] Embodiment two

[0075] Reference Figures 5 to 7 , wherein Figure 6 and Figure 7 the dashed line in represents the ultraviolet light p1.

[0076] On the basis of embodiment one, embodiment two is fixed with lampshade 500 on second support part 321, lampshade 500 is close to LED lamp 400, the role of lampshade 500 is to prevent ultraviolet light from shining on other positions outside photocatalyst filter screen 200, to avoid ultraviolet light from causing damage to other components or human body.

[0077] At the same time, lampshade 500 also plays a certain role of light collection for ultraviolet light, so that ultraviolet light can shine on photocatalyst filter screen 200 as much as possible, which helps to improve sterilization and disinfection effect.

[0078] Further, the cross-sectional shape of lampshade 500 is preferably arc-shaped, and lampshade 500 is located on the side of LED lamp 400 away from photocatalyst filter screen 200, that is, lampshade 500 is arranged above LED lamp 400.

[0079] Under the blocking effect of upper lampshade 500, most of the ultraviolet light emitted by LED lamp 400 can shine downward on photocatalyst filter screen 200, and part of the ultraviolet light shining on lampshade 500 is reflected to photocatalyst filter screen 200 again under the reflection effect of lampshade 500, which improves light intensity and helps to further improve sterilization and disinfection effect.

[0080] Further, the shape of lampshade 500 is preferably half-horn-shaped or half-cylindrical, and half-horn-shaped is selected in embodiment two, which realizes the shielding and light collection of ultraviolet light by using smaller lampshade area, and helps to reduce the influence of lampshade 500 on wind resistance.

[0087] Meanwhile, the top cover 600 also plays a certain role in concentrating the ultraviolet light, which helps to enhance the irradiation of the ultraviolet light on the photocatalyst filter screen 200.

[0088] In addition, the top cover 600 can also avoid the ultraviolet light from irradiating other positions outside the photocatalyst filter screen, thereby preventing the ultraviolet light from damaging other components or human bodies.

[0089] Further, the side of the top cover 600 facing the photocatalyst filter screen 200 is provided with a reflective coating (not marked), which enhances the reflection of the ultraviolet light and improves the sterilization and disinfection effect.

[0090] Further, the top cover 600 has an arc-shaped cross section, and the side edges of the top cover 600 extend towards the photocatalyst filter screen 200, so that the top cover 600 is equivalent to a concave mirror arranged above the photocatalyst filter screen 200, thereby increasing the light-concentrating and reflecting effect and further improving the sterilization and disinfection effect.

[0091] Further, the top cover 600 is fixedly connected with the frame 100 through the connecting ribs 700, one end of the connecting rib 700 is fixedly connected with the frame 100, and the other end is fixedly connected with the top cover 600, the top cover 600 is arranged above the LED lamp 400, thereby avoiding the top cover 600 from affecting the ultraviolet light emitted from the LED lamp 400 from irradiating the photocatalyst filter screen 200.

[0092] In the fourth embodiment, the number of the connecting ribs 700 is preferably four, which are respectively arranged on the four corners of the frame 100, and the top cover 600 has a certain distance from the photocatalyst filter screen 200, so that the top cover 600 can reduce the influence on the wind resistance as much as possible while meeting the light-concentrating and reflecting effect.

[0093] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, but not to limit them; although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments, or make equivalent replacement for some technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application.
