[0053] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present disclosure clearer, the technical solution of the embodiments of the present disclosure will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings of the embodiments of the present disclosure. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, not all of the embodiments. Based on the described embodiments of the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0054] Unless otherwise defined, the technical terms or scientific terms used in this disclosure should be understood by ordinary technicians in the field. "First", "second" and similar words used in this disclosure do not indicate any order, quantity or importance, but are only used to distinguish different components. "Include" or "comprising" and similar words mean that the elements or objects appearing before the word cover the elements or objects listed after the word and their equivalents, without excluding other elements or objects.

[0055] In this document, unless otherwise specified, directional terms such as "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "inner", "outer", etc. are used to indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present disclosure, and do not indicate or imply that the device, element or component referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed or operate in a specific orientation. It should be understood that when the absolute position of the described object changes, the relative positional relationship they represent may also change accordingly. Therefore, these directional terms should not be understood as limiting the present disclosure.

[0056] It should be noted that in the following description of the present disclosure, the specific embodiment of the container as the object to be disinfected in logistics is explained, but it is easy for those skilled in the art to understand that these descriptions cannot be used as specific limitations on the application sites of the present application. The present application can be used in other confined spaces or confined environments with walls to disinfect the walls of the confined space or confined environment, for example, it can disinfect boxes that can store materials such as refrigerated insulation boxes.

[0057] There are many viruses or bacteria with serious hazards in the environment. It is necessary to disinfect the environment or objects that may contain viruses or bacteria in a timely manner, especially in the logistics and transportation links, and more attention should be paid to disinfection.

[0058] In logistics transportation, goods are generally loaded into containers. Before loading the goods into the container, the inside of the container needs to be disinfected and sterilized to prevent the goods from carrying viruses or bacteria.

[0059] In the related art, a nozzle is installed on the support arm of the disinfection device, and the designated area or the entire inner wall of the container is disinfected by rotating the support arm in a vertical or horizontal plane. However, the support arm requires a large working space and cannot be adjusted according to the size of the container. For this reason, an improved solution is provided, and multiple nozzles are installed on the support arm. The disinfectant can be sprayed in at least two directions at the same time by rotating the nozzles alone, so as to cover multiple inner wall surfaces of the container at the same time. However, the nozzle of the improved disinfection device does not have the function of disinfecting the designated area.

[0060] According to the disinfection device 100 of the present application, the disinfectant is sprayed onto the inner wall 210 of the container 200 to kill the germs in the container. The disinfection device 100 can automatically complete the entire disinfection process without the need for personnel to enter the container to prevent the disinfectant from harming the human body. The first telescopic component can adjust the distance between the second nozzle 42 and the inner wall 210 according to the size of the container 200, and the second telescopic component 60 can adjust the distance between the third nozzle 43 and the inner wall 210 according to the size of the container 200, so that it is suitable for containers 200 of various sizes; in addition, through the action of the moving component 30, the first nozzle 41 can be locked to spray the disinfectant in a specified direction, or spray the disinfectant in multiple directions during sliding, with multiple working modes, which can improve the safety of the container.

[0061] Refer to the following Figure 1-Figure 6 The disinfection device 100 according to the embodiment of the present application is described. When the container 200 is stationary or moving, the disinfection device 100 can work to disinfect the interior of the container 200, regardless of the movement state of the container 200.

[0062] According to the embodiment of the present application, the disinfection device 100 includes a walking device 10 with a walking function, a bracket 20 fixed on the walking device 10, and a disinfectant storage container (not shown) for storing a disinfectant.

[0063] Specifically, the walking device 10 can walk in the container 200 .

[0064] like Figure 1 As shown, the walker 10 can be placed in the container 200, walk to the designated position according to the preset walking path, and use the first nozzle 41 to spray the disinfectant on the designated area of ​​the inner wall 210 of the container. The first nozzle 41 can also be used to spray the disinfectant on each inner wall 210 of the container 200 during the walking process, and the container 200 is disinfected and sterilized during the walking process, thereby improving the safety of the container 200 and avoiding the transmission of viruses and bacteria. In particular, for containers 200 used for storing and transporting frozen food, some viruses or bacteria have a strong tolerance to low temperature environments. If they are not disinfected, it is likely to cause the spread of viruses or bacteria.

[0065] By setting up the walker 10, automatic disinfection can be achieved instead of manual labor, which effectively improves the disinfection efficiency, reduces human labor, saves labor costs, and avoids the harm of disinfectants to the human body.

[0066] A disinfectant storage device for storing disinfectants is provided in the disinfection device 100, and a delivery pipeline is used to connect the first nozzle 41 and the disinfectant storage device, and the disinfectant storage device can be installed on the walking device 10 or the container 200. The disinfectant can be alcohol or an alcohol-containing disinfectant, or other liquids with disinfection / sterilization functions.

[0067] The disinfection device 100 further includes a moving assembly 30. The moving assembly 30 is disposed on the bracket 20, and a first spray head 41 is disposed on the moving assembly 30, wherein the first spray head 41 is slidably disposed on the moving assembly 30 to spray the disinfectant in multiple directions.

[0068] The first nozzle 41 can slide freely on the moving assembly 30, and the spraying direction of the first nozzle 41 can be constrained according to the preset slide route of the moving assembly 30, so as to spray the disinfectant to the designated area. Of course, the slide route can be arbitrary, so the spraying direction of the first nozzle 41 may also be multiple directions during the sliding process along the slide route.

[0069] The movement of the mobile component 30 can be used to disinfect a local area without the need for a large working space. It can be suitable for containers 200 of various sizes, solving the limitation in the prior art that the container 200 is too small to be extended. The mobile component 30 can constrain the direction of the first nozzle 41 and spray the disinfectant to the designated area, solving the problem that the prior art does not have the function of disinfecting the designated area.

[0070] According to the disinfection device 100 of the present application, by setting up a walker 10, automatic disinfection can be achieved instead of manual labor, avoiding people from entering the container 200 and saving manpower; in addition, the walker 10 is used in conjunction with the moving component 30. During the walking process, the first nozzle 41 can spray the disinfectant in a specified direction, or spray the disinfectant in multiple directions during sliding, so as to provide a variety of disinfection operation modes, and specifically disinfect and sterilize the wall of the container 200, thereby improving the safety of the container 200.

[0071] According to one embodiment of the present application, the disinfection device 100 also includes: a first telescopic component, one end of the first telescopic component is fixed on the moving component 30, and the other end of the first telescopic component is close to or away from the moving component 30, wherein a second nozzle 42 is arranged on the other end of the first telescopic component.

[0072] Since the sizes of the containers 200 are different, in order to save disinfection time, the disinfection of one of the inner walls 210 in the container 200 can be completed at one time. The first telescopic component has a storage state and an unfolded state to adapt to various sizes of containers 200.

[0073] The first telescopic component has a fully retracted state, the first telescopic component also has a fully extended state, and the first telescopic component may also have a state in between the two, that is, the extended length of the first telescopic component may be set according to demand.

[0074] When the size of the container 200, such as the width, is small, the mobile assembly 30 can complete the disinfection of an inner wall 210 in the container 200, and the first telescopic assembly can be in the storage state; when the size of the container 200, such as the width, is large, the first telescopic assembly needs to be expanded to a suitable length in the width direction of the container to complete the disinfection of one of the walls in the container 200. Of course, a second nozzle 42 needs to be provided on the other end of the first telescopic assembly, so that when the first telescopic assembly is in the expanded state, the second nozzle 42 on the other end can cooperate with the first nozzle 41 on the mobile assembly 30 to complete the disinfection of one wall in the container 200.

[0075] By setting the length of the first telescopic assembly according to the size of the container 200, the spraying range can be expanded and the spraying efficiency can be improved.

[0076] Preferably, there are two first telescopic components, which are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the moving component 30, so that the spraying range on both sides of the disinfection device 100 is evenly distributed, and the extended length can be easily controlled according to the width requirement of the container 200.

[0077] It should be noted that the first telescopic component can be used as one of the working states of the disinfection device 100 regardless of whether it is in the retracted state or the unfolded state, and the first telescopic component will not affect the spraying operation of the second nozzle 42 .

[0078] According to an embodiment of the present application, the first telescopic assembly includes: a linkage plate 51 and a telescopic rod 52 .

[0079] Specifically, the second nozzle 42 is disposed on the linkage plate 51 ; the telescopic rod 52 is fixed between the linkage plate 51 and the moving assembly 30 , and drives the linkage plate 51 to approach or move away from the moving assembly 30 .

[0080] The telescopic rod 52 is connected to the linkage plate 51 and fixed on the moving assembly 30. The linkage plate 51 can be moved closer to or farther from the moving assembly 30 and expanded to a suitable length by the driving of the telescopic rod 52. The second nozzle 42 is installed on the linkage plate 51. When the telescopic rod 52 is in the expanded state, the spraying range can be expanded to improve the spraying efficiency.

[0081] In one embodiment, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, Figure 2 The telescopic rod 52 is in a completely retracted state. Figure 3 The telescopic rod 52 is in a fully extended state. During the disinfection process, the first nozzle 41 on the moving assembly 30 and the second nozzle 42 on the linkage plate 51 simultaneously spray disinfectant toward the inner wall 210 of the container 200, thereby expanding the spraying range on both sides and improving the spraying efficiency.

[0082] According to one embodiment of the present application, the moving assembly 30 includes: a guide rail 31 and a mounting plate 32 .

[0083] Specifically, the guide rail 31 is fixedly connected to the bracket 20; the mounting plate 32 is slidably disposed on the guide rail 31, and a first nozzle 41 is disposed on the mounting plate 32 to drive the first nozzle 41 to spray the disinfectant in multiple directions.

[0084] The guide rail 31 limits the moving range of the first nozzle 41 and determines the moving track of the mounting plate 32. After the guide rail 31 is fixed on the bracket 20, the first nozzle 41 sprays the disinfectant according to the direction of the guide rail 31 during the sliding of the mounting plate 32 along the guide rail 31. The extension direction of the guide rail 31 can be arranged according to demand. When the extension of the guide rail 31 involves multiple directions, the first nozzle 41 will spray the disinfectant in multiple directions during the sliding of the guide rail 31. Of course, the mounting plate 32 can also be locked at any position on the guide rail 31 to allow the first nozzle 41 to spray the disinfectant to the specified position.

[0085] According to an embodiment of the present application, the guide rail 31 is constructed in a U shape, including: a first section 311 and a second section 312 and a third section 313 connected to both sides of the first section 311 .

[0086] Specifically, the first section 311 is arranged along the first direction and fixedly connected to the bracket 20; the free ends of the second section 312 and the third section 313 are gradually bent and extended toward the second direction.

[0087] It can be understood that from one free end to the other free end of the guide rail 31 , the second direction gradually turns to the first direction and then to the second direction.

[0088] In one embodiment, Figure 4 As shown, the first direction is the up-and-down direction of the walker 10 (the height direction of the container 200), and the second direction is the front-and-back direction of the walker 10 when walking (the length direction of the container 200). The guide rail 31 is arranged along the height direction of the container 200 and fixed on the bracket 20, and the free end of the guide rail 31 is gradually bent toward the length direction of the container 200 to form a U shape.

[0089] like Figure 4-Figure 6 As shown, Figure 4-Figure 6 The mounting plates 32 are located at the upper, middle and lower positions respectively. Figures 4 to 6 When moving along the guide rail 31, the angle between the mounting plate 32 and the second direction gradually increases from 0° to 90°, and then from 90° to 180°. It can be understood that, during the sliding of the mounting plate 32 along the guide rail 31, the first nozzle 41 on the mounting plate 32 gradually changes from spraying upward to spraying forward, and then from spraying forward to spraying downward, and the spraying and disinfection work from the top wall 211 to the front wall 215, the front wall 215, and the front wall 215 to the bottom wall 212 can be completed, and there is no dead angle in the whole spraying process.

[0090] According to an embodiment of the present application, the length of the guide rail 31 is adjustable, specifically, the length of the first section 311 is adjustable.

[0091] According to the length of the container 200 in the first direction, the first section 311 can be selectively extended or shortened to provide a reasonable distance between the first nozzle 41 on the moving component 30 and the inner wall 21, thereby assisting the first nozzle 41 in completing the disinfection work.

[0092] In one embodiment, the length of the container 200 in the first direction is the height of the container 200. When the first nozzle 41 on the movable assembly 30 is working, it can slide between the two free ends of the guide rail 31 to perform spraying operations. By adjusting the length of the guide rail 31, the first nozzle 41 can be closer to the top wall 211, thereby avoiding ineffective disinfection due to the disinfectant failing to reach the wall surface.

[0093] According to an embodiment of the present application, a plurality of first nozzles 41 are disposed on the mounting plate 32 , and the plurality of first nozzles 41 are arranged at intervals along the third direction.

[0094] According to the spraying range of each first nozzle 41, a plurality of first nozzles 41 are arranged at intervals in the third direction (the width direction of the container), and the spraying ranges of two adjacent first nozzles 41 at least partially overlap to prevent some areas from being missed during disinfection.

[0095] According to one embodiment of the present application, the disinfection device 100 also includes: two symmetrically arranged second telescopic components 60, which are fixed on the bracket 20 to move closer to or away from each other in a third direction (the width direction of the container), wherein a third nozzle 43 is arranged in the moving direction of the second telescopic component to spray disinfectant in the third direction.

[0096] In order to increase the spraying speed and improve the spraying efficiency, two second telescopic components 60 with third nozzles 43 are arranged in the third direction perpendicular to the guide rail 31. The third nozzles 43 on the two second telescopic components 60 can respectively spray disinfectants onto the two inner walls 210 in the width direction of the container to supplement the positions that the first nozzles 41 on the mounting plate 32 cannot cover, thereby completing the disinfection of the two inner walls 210.

[0097] Since the dimensions of the container 200 in the width direction are different, in order to achieve the purpose of disinfecting bacteria, it is necessary to adjust the length of the second telescopic assembly 60 according to the dimension of the container 200 in the width direction so that the spraying distance of the third nozzle 43 on the second telescopic assembly 60 can meet the needs of containers 200 of various sizes.

[0098] The second telescopic assembly 60 has a fully retracted state, a fully extended state, and a state in between, that is, the second telescopic assembly 60 can be set to an extended length according to the requirements of the container 200 in the width direction.

[0099] When the width of the container 200 is relatively small, the second telescopic assembly 60 can also meet the spray distance of the disinfectant in the stored state, and the second telescopic assembly 60 can be in the stored state at this time; when the width of the container 200 is relatively large, the second telescopic assembly 60 needs to be unfolded to an appropriate length to shorten the distance between the third nozzle 43 on the second telescopic assembly 60 and the inner wall 210 in the width direction to meet the spray distance of the disinfectant.

[0100] By setting the length of the second telescopic component 60 according to the size of the container 200 , the distance between the third nozzle 43 and the inner wall 210 can be shortened to meet the spraying distance of the disinfectant, which is conducive to the disinfectant adhering to the inner wall 210 .

[0101] There are two second telescopic components 60, and the two second telescopic components 60 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the moving component 30 to supplement the positions that the first nozzle 41 on the mounting plate 32 cannot cover, so as to complete the disinfection work of the two inner walls 210 in the third direction.

[0102] In one embodiment, the third direction is the left and right direction (the width direction of the container 200) when the walker 10 is walking, and the first nozzle 41 on the mounting plate 32 can only complete the spraying and disinfection work of the top wall 211, the front wall 215 and the bottom wall 212 of the container 200. The third nozzle 43 on the second telescopic assembly 60 on the left side sprays the disinfectant to the left side to complete the disinfection work of the left wall 213 of the container, and the third nozzle 43 on the second telescopic assembly 60 on the right side sprays the disinfectant to the right side to complete the disinfection work of the right wall 214 of the container.

[0103] It should be noted that the second telescopic assembly 60 can be used as one of the working states of the disinfection device 100 regardless of whether it is in the retracted state or the unfolded state, and the second telescopic assembly 60 will not affect the spraying operation of the third nozzle 43 .

[0104] According to an embodiment of the present application, the second telescopic assembly 60 includes: a connecting plate 61 and a driving member 62 .

[0105] Specifically, a plurality of third nozzles 43 are disposed on the connecting plate 61 , and the plurality of third nozzles 43 are arranged at intervals in the first direction; the driving member 62 is fixedly connected to the bracket 20 to drive the connecting plate 61 to move in the third direction.

[0106] The driving member 62 drives the connecting plate 61 to move in the third direction, that is, the connecting plate 61 can be close to or away from the inner wall 210 of the container, and the distance between the connecting plate 61 and the inner wall 210 can be adjusted according to the size of the container 200. A plurality of third nozzles 43 are mounted on the connecting plate 61 and arranged in the first direction. During the movement of the walking device 10, the two inner walls 210 of the container 200 in the third direction can be disinfected.

[0107] In one embodiment, the first direction is the height direction of the container, the second direction is the length direction of the container (the front-to-back direction of the walking device 10), and the third direction is the width direction of the container (the left-to-right direction when the walking device 10 is walking). The third nozzle 43 spraying to the left is provided on the left connecting plate 61, and the third nozzle 43 spraying to the right is provided on the right connecting plate 61. The driving member 62 drives the left connecting plate 61 to approach the left wall 213 of the container 200, and the right connecting plate 61 to approach the right wall 214 of the container 200. When the walking device 10 is walking, the third nozzles 43 on the left and right sides spray the disinfectant to the left wall 213 and the right wall 214, respectively.

[0108] Preferably, in order to improve the effective spraying rate, the length of the connecting plate 61 can be set according to the height of the container 200, and the third nozzle 43 can be arranged in the height direction to ensure that the entire wall surface on the left and right sides of the container 200 is within the spraying range. The walker 10 only needs to move once in the front and rear direction to complete the disinfection of the two inner walls 210 on the left and right sides.

[0109] Preferably, in order to avoid the problem of dead angles, the spraying directions of all nozzles on the disinfection device 100 are adjustable, that is, the spraying directions of the first nozzle 41, the second nozzle 42 and the third nozzle 43 are adjustable, which effectively reduces the spraying dead angles.

[0110] The spraying direction of the nozzle can be adjusted as needed. For example, when the movement of the walker 10 is restricted, a spraying blind spot appears on the upper left side of the container 200. The spraying direction of the first nozzle 41 and the second nozzle 42 can be adjusted to a designated position (the upper left side of the container 200) by adjusting the angles of the first nozzle 41 and the second nozzle 42 to complete the disinfection of the upper left side of the container 200.

[0111] It should be noted that the above embodiments specifically define the relationship between the first direction, the second direction, and the third direction relative to the container 200 or the walking device 10, but this cannot be used as a specific limitation of the present application. When the first direction, the second direction, and the third direction are perpendicular to each other, the solution of the present application can also be implemented. For example, the first direction is the width direction of the container 200, the second direction is the length direction of the container 200, and the third direction is the height direction of the container 200. This definition can also complete the technical solution of the present application.

[0112] According to an embodiment of the present application, the walking device 10 is constructed as a wheel type or a track type.

[0113] The walking device 10 is moved by the running wheels or crawler tracks, which can improve the convenience of movement and make the steering more flexible. In addition, the walking device 10 is moved by the running wheels or crawler tracks, which has a higher anti-skid ability.

[0114] It should be noted that in the embodiment where the walker 10 is wheeled, when the power is insufficient or fails, the walker 10 can be pushed manually to improve the adaptability of the walker 10.

[0115] In some embodiments, the disinfection device 100 also includes a driving device for driving the walker 10 to move relative to the container 200 , and the driving device is disposed in the walker 10 or on the container 200 .

[0116] The driving device may include an electric driving member 62 or a fuel driving member 62, etc. The driving device may be a separate power device that is only used for the walking device 10 to walk, or may be a self-contained power of the equipment used to transport the container 200.

[0117] According to one embodiment of the present application, the disinfection device 100 also includes a solenoid valve, which is electrically connected to all the nozzles to control the opening and closing of all the nozzles.

[0118] The solenoid valve is an electromagnetically controlled device that can be used to control the basic automation element of the fluid. In the present application, the solenoid valve controls all the nozzles to spray the disinfectant in a specified direction, that is, spray the disinfectant on the specified inner wall 210 surface in the container 200.

[0119] In some embodiments, the disinfection device 100 also includes a control device, which is connected to the walker 10, the moving component 30, the first telescopic component, the second telescopic component 60 and the solenoid valve.

[0120] The control device controls the walking route of the walker 10 and the position of the mounting plate 32 in the mobile component 30, so that the walker 10 and the mobile component 30 move to the preset position to work; the control device controls the expansion length of the first telescopic component and the second telescopic component 60, so that the disinfection device 100 can complete the disinfection of an entire wall at one time; the control device controls the opening and closing of all nozzles, and opens some or all of the nozzles during the disinfection process, so as to realize the disinfection of the designated area to be disinfected.

[0121] According to the disinfection system 1000 in the embodiment of the present application, it includes: the above-mentioned disinfection device 100 and the air compression device 300.

[0122] like Figure 8 As shown, the air compression device 300 is connected to the disinfection device 100 through a pipeline 301 to atomize the disinfectant. An air compression device 300 is arranged outside the container 200, and is connected to the disinfectant storage device in the disinfection device 100 through a pipeline 301. When the air compression device 300 is working, air is sprayed into the disinfectant storage device through the pipeline 301. The air generates pressure during the spraying process, and ruptures after hitting the disinfectant in the disinfectant storage device. The ruptured air can be used as a carrier to mix with the disinfectant to form a fine water mist, and then the fine water mist disinfectant is sprayed out from each nozzle, so that the spraying is more uniform, achieving the purpose of no dead angle and full coverage.

[0123] In one embodiment of the present application, the disinfectant storage container is equipped with a cavitation component commonly used in the art, so that the disinfectant / disinfectant can form small, uniform and independent droplets, which will not be described in detail here.

[0124] According to one embodiment of the present application, the disinfection system 1000 further includes: a sensing component, which is disposed on the disinfection device 100 to adjust the travel direction of the disinfection device 100 and the spraying direction of all nozzles.

[0125] On the one hand, since the container 200 is a closed space and the disinfection device 100 needs to determine the direction and position by itself, a plurality of sensing components are installed on the disinfection device 100, which are specifically constructed as distance sensors to obtain the distance information between the disinfection device 100 and the inner wall 210 of the container 200, so as to adjust the travel direction in time and prevent the disinfection device 100 from being damaged by colliding with the inner wall 210 of the container 200.

[0126] The distance sensor is communicatively connected with the control device, and can send distance information to the control device during movement. When the distance information reaches a preset condition, the control device sends a stop instruction to the walker 10 on the disinfection device 100.

[0127] On the other hand, during the walking process of the walker 10, there may be a spraying dead angle area that cannot be covered by the nozzle.

[0128] The sensing component is communicatively connected to the control device, and can determine possible blind spots for spraying according to the position of the walker 10 in the container 200. The control device controls the spraying direction of the nozzle to spray the disinfectant to the blind spots to avoid omissions.

[0129] According to the disinfection system 1000 of the present application, there is no need for personnel to enter the container 200 to prevent the disinfectant from harming the human body.

[0130] According to one embodiment of the present application, since the container 200 is usually at a certain height from the ground, in order to facilitate the disinfection device 100 to enter the container 200, the present application provides a lifting device 400. The lifting device 400 can be docked with the container 200 to achieve the purpose of being flush with the chassis height of the container 200, thereby facilitating the disinfection device 100 to be delivered into the container 200.

[0131] Of course, some containers 200 are placed directly on the ground, and the floor-standing containers 200 do not need to be equipped with the lifting device 400.

[0132] Figure 7 The flowchart of the disinfection method according to an embodiment of the present application is schematically shown.

[0133] like Figure 7 As shown, the disinfection method includes steps S110 to S150.

[0134] In step S110, a preset disinfection route is obtained, and the disinfection route includes forward and backward.

[0135] First, the disinfection route is set, which can be understood as the walking route of the walker. The walker usually walks mainly in the second direction, that is, forward and backward. Through the back and forth movement of the disinfection device, it can be used as a closed-loop process to complete the disinfection of all inner walls in the container.

[0136] It should be noted that if the container is too large, multiple round-trip routes can be set up so that the disinfectant can cover all the inner walls of the container.

[0137] In step S120, the disinfection device is started.

[0138] After obtaining the disinfection route, the disinfection device is started, the first nozzle begins to spray disinfectant, and the walker begins to move along the preset disinfection route.

[0139] In step S130, when the disinfection device moves forward, the first nozzle is placed at one end of the moving component to spray the disinfectant in a direction.

[0140] During the forward movement of the walker, the first nozzle is at one end of the moving component, and the first nozzle sprays the disinfectant onto the inner wall close to the end of the moving component.

[0141] In this step, as the walker moves forward, the first nozzle can spray disinfectant onto the inner wall near one end of the moving component according to the forward route of the walker. After the walker completes the entire forward route, the inner wall near one end of the moving component completes the spraying of the disinfectant.

[0142] The above-mentioned “entire forward route” can be understood as the forward route in one round trip, or can be understood as all forward routes included in multiple round trips.

[0143] In step S140, when the disinfection device stops moving forward, the first nozzle slides from one end of the moving component to the other end of the moving component to spray the disinfectant in multiple directions.

[0144] During the process of the first nozzle sliding from one end of the moving component to the other end of the moving component, the moving component drives the first nozzle to spray the disinfectant in multiple directions. After the moving component completes the movement, the first nozzle completes the spraying of the disinfectant on the inner wall of the side facing it.

[0145] Among them, one end of the moving component can be understood as being on the second section or the third section of the guide rail, and the other end of the moving component can be understood as being on the third section or the second section on the opposite side of one end of the moving component.

[0146] In step S150, when the disinfection device retreats, the first nozzle is placed at the other end of the moving component to spray the disinfectant in a direction.

[0147] During the backward movement of the walker, the first nozzle is at the other end of the moving component, and the first nozzle sprays the disinfectant onto the inner wall close to the other end of the moving component.

[0148] In this step, as the walker retreats, the first nozzle can spray disinfectant onto the inner wall near the other end of the moving component according to the retreat route of the walker. After the walker completes the entire retreat route, the disinfectant spraying work is completed on the inner wall near the other end of the moving component.

[0149] Similar to step S130, the above-mentioned "entire retreat route" can be understood as the retreat route in one back and forth walking, and can also be understood as all retreat routes included in multiple back and forth processes.

[0150] Here, considering that the container 200 also includes double-door panels, before the walker enters the interior of the container and when the walker just leaves the container, the second nozzle 42 on the first telescopic component of the disinfection device 100 and / or the third nozzle 43 on the second telescopic component 60 can be used to disinfect the inner walls of the two side door panels respectively to ensure the integrity of the disinfection of the container 200.

[0151] For example, after punching the door panel of the double door, the disinfection device 100 uses the second nozzle 42 on the first telescopic component and / or the third nozzle 43 on the second telescopic component 60 to spray one door of the double door, and when retreating to the door of the container 200, it sprays the other door of the double door.

[0152] Figures 8 to 12 It is a schematic diagram of multiple intermediate working states for disinfecting the container 200 , wherein the first direction is the up-and-down direction of the walker 10 , the second direction is the front-and-back direction of the walker 10 when walking, and the third direction is the left-and-right direction of the walker 10 .

[0153] in, Figure 8 The disinfection device 100 is in a working state of moving forward; Fig. 9 For Figure 8 Schematic diagram of the disinfection device 100 spraying disinfectant toward the left wall 213 and the bottom wall 212 in the working state; Fig.10 A schematic diagram of spraying disinfectant toward the front wall 215 after the disinfection device 100 stops moving forward; Fig.11 The disinfecting device 100 is in a working state of moving backwards; Fig.12 For Fig.11 Schematic diagram of the disinfection device 100 spraying disinfectant on the right wall 214 and the top wall 211 when in working state. The disinfection process of using the disinfection system is as follows:

[0154] 1. Adjust the length of the first telescopic assembly and the second telescopic assembly 60 according to the size of the container 200, and place the mounting plate 32 at the lowest end;

[0155] 2. The disinfection device 100 starts to move forward;

[0156] 3. Before the disinfection device 100 enters the container 200, the third nozzle 43 on the left second telescopic assembly 60 is turned on to spray the disinfectant onto the left door panel of the container 200;

[0157] 4. After spraying the left door panel, open the second nozzle 42 on the first telescopic assembly and the first nozzle 41 on the mounting plate to start spraying the left wall 213 and the bottom wall 212 of the container 200;

[0158] 5. The distance sensor senses that the disinfection device 100 has reached the set distance from the front wall 215 of the container 200, and the disinfection device 100 stops moving forward;

[0159] 6. The third spray head 43 of the second telescopic assembly on the left side is closed, and the first telescopic assembly and the mounting plate 32 begin to move from bottom to top along the guide rail 31 to spray the front wall 215 of the container 200 until they move to the uppermost end;

[0160] 7. After the disinfection of the front wall 215 is completed, the third nozzle 43 on the second telescopic assembly 60 on the right side, the second nozzle 42 on the first telescopic assembly, and the first nozzle 41 on the mounting plate 32 are turned on, and the disinfection device 100 begins to retreat and start spraying the top wall 211 and the right wall 214 of the container 200;

[0161] 8. When retreating to the door of the container 200, close the second nozzle 42 on the first telescopic assembly and the first nozzle 41 on the mounting plate 32, and the third nozzle 43 on the right second telescopic assembly 60 sprays the disinfectant to the right door panel of the container 200;

[0162] 9. After spraying the right door panel of the container 200, the disinfection device 100 stops moving backward.

[0163] According to the above steps, through one back and forth movement of the disinfection device, the disinfection work of all the inner walls of the container can be automatically completed, and a comprehensive disinfection operation without dead ends can be achieved with high efficiency. Of course, the above-mentioned spraying sequence of the inner walls of the container can be adjusted according to usage habits, or it can be stopped at any time during the movement of the disinfection device to disinfect the designated area.
