[0109] In order to better understand the technical solution of the present application, the embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

For example, "A and / or B" can represent: A exists alone, A and B exist simultaneously, or B exists alone. Furthermore, the character " / " in this document generally indicates that the associated objects are in an "or" relationship.

[0113] It should be noted that the directional words such as "upper", "lower", "left", and "right" described in the embodiments of the present application are described based on the angles shown in the accompanying drawings and should not be understood as limiting the embodiments of the present application.

[0114] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a vehicle, which includes a vehicle body 200 and a disinfection system. The disinfection system can be applied to the vehicle and can disinfect the vehicle. The vehicle can be a train such as a high-speed train, a subway, a light rail, etc.

[0115] The disinfection system includes an actuator 210 and a disinfection device 100. The actuator 210 is installed in the vehicle body 200. The vehicle body 200 is provided with a pipeline 230, which is connected to the output end of the actuator 210 and is provided with a nozzle 231. The actuator 210 includes a first signal transmitter 212 and a first access terminal 211. The first signal transmitter 212 is used to send a position signal. The disinfection device 100 includes a first signal receiver 172, a second access terminal 171, and a controller. The first signal receiver 172 is used to receive the position signal. The controller controls the second access terminal 171 to connect to the first access terminal 211 based on the position signal, thereby supplying disinfectant to the vehicle through the actuator 210. Specifically, when the vehicle body 200 needs to be disinfected, the disinfection device 100 is docked with the execution device 210, and the disinfectant provided by the disinfection device 100 can enter the execution device 210. The execution device 210 can further input the disinfectant into the pipeline 230, and the pipeline 230 can spray the disinfectant into the vehicle through the nozzle 231. The nozzle 231 can be an atomizing nozzle 231, which can achieve large-area spraying, which is conducive to disinfecting a larger area in the vehicle. There can be multiple atomizing nozzles 231, which can be evenly distributed on the pipeline 230. Specifically, the pipeline 230 can be set on the top and floor of the vehicle body 200, thereby expanding the disinfection area.

[0116] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the disinfection device 100 can be arranged at a station rather than being set in a vehicle. When the vehicle arrives at the station and stops, the vehicle can send a position signal through its first signal transmitter 212, and the position signal can be received by the first signal receiver 172 of the disinfection device 100. The controller of the disinfection device 100 can process and analyze the position signal and control the disinfection device 100 to automatically move to a position where it can dock with the vehicle according to the position signal. At this position, the first access terminal 211 and the second access terminal 171 can be docked, thereby achieving communication between the disinfection device 100 and the execution device 210. The disinfectant provided by the disinfection device 100 can enter the vehicle through the execution device 210 and can disinfect the interior of the vehicle.

[0117] Therefore, the disinfection system provided in the embodiment of the present application can automatically disinfect the vehicle according to the driving status of the vehicle, thereby realizing automated disinfection of the vehicle, freeing up manpower, and improving disinfection efficiency.

[0118] Specifically, if Figures 6 to 8As shown, the disinfection device 100 includes a ball valve 110, a drive mechanism 120, a liquid storage container 130, an output mechanism 140, and a pressure mechanism 150. The ball valve 110 is provided with a liquid channel 111. The drive mechanism 120 is connected to the ball valve 110 and is used to drive the ball valve 110 to rotate and switch between a first position, a second position, and a third position. The liquid storage container 130 is used to store disinfectant. The output mechanism 140 is used to output the disinfectant. The pressure mechanism 150 is used to provide power for the disinfectant to flow between the liquid storage container 130, the output mechanism 140, and the pressure mechanism 150. At least two of the pressure mechanism 150, the liquid storage container 130, and the output mechanism 140 are connected via the liquid channel 111.

[0119] When the disinfection device 100 is not in operation, the ball valve 110 is in the initial position, and the pressure mechanism 150 is connected to the spherical surface of the ball valve 110 , that is, the pressure mechanism 150 is not connected to the liquid channel 111 in the ball valve 110 , and the disinfectant cannot flow into the pressure mechanism 150 .

[0120] During the operation of the disinfection device 100, after the disinfection device 100 is docked with the rail transit vehicle through the output mechanism 140, the driving mechanism 120 controls the ball valve 110 to rotate to the first position, so that the liquid storage container 130 can be connected with the liquid inlet of the pressure mechanism 150 through the liquid channel 111, and the disinfectant in the liquid storage container 130 can flow into the pressure mechanism 150 through the liquid channel 111 and the liquid inlet of the pressure mechanism 150 in sequence. At the same time, the liquid outlet of the pressure mechanism 150 can be connected with the output mechanism 140 through the liquid channel 111. The pressure mechanism 150 can provide pressure to pump the disinfectant into the rail transit vehicle through the liquid outlet of the pressure mechanism 150, the liquid channel 111 on the ball valve 110 and the output mechanism 140 in sequence, so that the rail transit vehicle can be disinfected.

[0121] After disinfection is completed, the driving mechanism 120 can control the ball valve 110 to rotate to the second position, so that the liquid inlet of the pressure mechanism 150 is connected to the output mechanism 140 through the liquid channel 111, so that the disinfectant in the rail vehicle can flow back to the pressure mechanism 150 through the output mechanism 140, the liquid channel 111 and the liquid inlet of the pressure mechanism 150 in sequence. The pressure mechanism 150 can pump the internal disinfectant into the liquid storage container 130 through the liquid outlet and the liquid channel 111 of the ball valve 110 in sequence, thereby realizing the recovery of the disinfectant, and the power provided by the pressure mechanism 150 can also improve the recovery efficiency.

[0122] After the disinfectant in the pressure mechanism 150 is completely transferred to the liquid storage container 130, the driving mechanism 120 controls the ball valve 110 to rotate to the third position, so that the liquid inlet of the pressure mechanism 150 is connected to the liquid outlet of the pressure mechanism 150 through the liquid channel 111 on the ball valve 110, and is disconnected from the liquid storage container 130 and the output mechanism 140. In this state, even if the pressure mechanism 150 is activated, it will not generate driving force for the disinfectant, that is, it is in an inactive state, thereby preventing malfunction of the pressure mechanism 150. At the same time, the liquid storage container 130 is connected to the output mechanism 140 through the liquid channel 111 of the ball valve 110, so that the residual disinfectant in the rail vehicle can flow directly back into the liquid storage container 130 without flowing into the pressure mechanism 150.

[0123] When the disinfection device 100 needs to be separated from the rail transit vehicle, the driving mechanism 120 can control the ball valve 110 to rotate back to the initial position so that the pressure mechanism 150 is docked with the spherical part of the ball valve 110. At this time, the pressure mechanism 150 is not connected to the liquid channel 111 on the ball valve 110, and the disinfectant cannot flow into the pressure mechanism 150.

[0124] Therefore, the disinfection device 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application can control the ball valve 110 to rotate between the first position, the second position and the third position through the driving mechanism 120, so that the pressure mechanism 150, the output mechanism 140 and the liquid storage container 130 can be selectively connected according to usage requirements, thereby realizing automated operation, and the structure is simple and compact, which is easy to maintain and manage.

[0125] The driving mechanism 120 may be a motor, which can facilitate the control of the rotation of the ball valve 110. The pressure structure may be a high-pressure pump, which can provide sufficient pressure for the disinfectant to flow smoothly between the liquid storage container 130, the output mechanism 140 and the pressure mechanism 150.

[0126] As a specific implementation method, Figures 9 to 11 As shown, the ball valve 110 includes a longitude groove 111 a and a latitude groove 111 b , with an included angle α, 30°<α≤90°.

[0127] It can be understood that the ball valve 110 is a sphere as a whole, and there are longitudes and latitudes on the sphere. In a plane parallel to the rotation center of the ball valve 110, the longitude groove 111a is arranged around the surface of the ball valve 110, and in a plane perpendicular to or nearly perpendicular to the rotation center of the ball valve 110, the latitude groove 111b is arranged around the surface of the ball valve 110, so that the angle between the longitude groove 111a and the latitude groove 111b satisfies 30°<α≤90°. Within this angle range, the arrangement of the pressure mechanism 150, the output mechanism 140 and the liquid storage container 130 can be realized, and at the same time, it can be ensured that when the ball valve 110 rotates to a certain position, at least two of the pressure mechanism 150, the output mechanism 140 and the liquid storage container 130 can be connected.

[0128] Specifically, the longitude groove 111a extends along the longitudinal direction of the ball valve 110, and the latitude groove 111b extends along the latitude direction of the ball valve 110, that is, the longitude groove 111a and the latitude groove 111b are distributed perpendicular to each other, and the opening directions of the longitude groove 111a and the latitude groove 111b deviate from each other, thereby facilitating the arrangement of the pressure mechanism 150, the output mechanism 140 and the liquid storage container 130, and facilitating the communication between the pressure mechanism 150, the output mechanism 140 and the liquid storage container 130 during the rotation of the ball valve 110.

[0129] Among them, Figure 6 As shown, the output mechanism 140 can be set at the top of the ball valve 110 and can always keep one end of the longitude groove 111a connected, and the position where the output mechanism 140 is connected to the longitude groove 111a coincides with the rotation center of the ball valve 110. Therefore, during the rotation of the ball valve 110, the output mechanism 140 can always be ensured to be connected to the longitude groove 111a.

[0130] Specifically, the central angle corresponding to the longitude trough 111 a may be 60° to 100°, and the central angle corresponding to the latitude trough 111 b may be 150° to 180°.

[0131] Among them, Figure 6As shown, the output mechanism 140 is disposed at the top of the ball valve 110, while the pressure mechanism 150 and the liquid storage container 130 can be disposed on different sides of the ball valve 110, thereby preventing interference between the output mechanism 140, the pressure mechanism 150, and the liquid storage container 130. In this arrangement, the holes on the pressure mechanism 150 and the liquid storage container 130 for connecting to the liquid channel 111 on the ball valve 110 are also located lateral to the ball valve 110. By adjusting the central angle corresponding to the latitude slot 111b to be between 150° and 180°, the liquid inlet and outlet of the liquid storage container 130 and the pressure mechanism 150 located lateral to the ball valve 110 can be selectively connected when the ball valve 110 is rotated to different positions. By making the central angle corresponding to the longitude groove 111a 60° to 100°, when the ball valve 110 is rotated to different positions, it is convenient to selectively connect with the liquid inlet and liquid outlet of the liquid storage container 130 and the pressure mechanism 150, and at the same time ensure that the disinfectant can flow smoothly into the pressure structure, the liquid storage container 130 and the output mechanism 140 through the liquid channel 111.

[0132] As a specific implementation method, Figure 6 and Figure 8 As shown, the pressure mechanism 150 is connected to the longitude slot 111a along the first direction X through the first pipeline 151; the pressure mechanism 150 is connected to the latitude slot 111b along the second direction Y through the second pipeline 152, and the second direction Y is perpendicular to the first direction X; the liquid storage container 130 is connected to the latitude slot 111b along the second direction Y through the third pipeline 131, and the third pipeline 131 and the second pipeline 152 are respectively located on opposite sides of the ball valve 110; the output mechanism 140 is connected to the longitude slot 111a along the third direction Z through the fourth pipeline 141, and the third direction Z is perpendicular to the first direction X and the second direction Y, respectively.

[0133] Thus, the pressure mechanism 150, the liquid storage container 130, and the output mechanism 140 can be connected to the longitudinal slot 111a and the latitude slot 111b on the ball valve 110 through the respective pipelines 230, and the disinfectant can be smoothly transferred through the respective pipelines 230. Specifically, the first pipeline 151, the second pipeline 152, and the third pipeline 131 can all be on the same plane, so that they can be selectively connected through the latitude slot 111b during the rotation of the ball valve 110.

[0134] In a specific embodiment, Figure 12 As shown, the initial position of the ball valve 110 may be such that the longitudinal groove 111a is located between the first conduit 151 and the second conduit 152 and is offset 45° from the first direction X to the second direction Y. When the ball valve 110 is in this initial position, the first conduit 151 and the second conduit 152 of the pressure mechanism 150 are in contact with the spherical surface of the ball valve 110 and are not in communication with the longitudinal groove 111a or the latitude groove 111b.

[0135] like Figure 13 As shown, after the disinfection device 100 is docked with the rail vehicle via the output mechanism 140, the drive mechanism 120 controls the ball valve 110 to rotate 45° counterclockwise to the first position, causing the first pipeline 151 to communicate with the third pipeline 131 via the latitude slot 111b. This connects the liquid storage container 130 to the liquid inlet of the pressure mechanism 150. Simultaneously, the second pipeline 152 connects with the fourth pipeline 141 via the longitudinal slot 111a. This connects the liquid outlet of the pressure mechanism 150 to the output mechanism 140. In this first position, disinfectant can flow from the liquid storage container 130 into the pressure mechanism 150, then be pumped into the output mechanism 140 by the pressure mechanism 150, and then be output to the pipeline 230 of the rail vehicle via the output mechanism 140 for disinfection.

[0136] like Figure 14 As shown, after disinfection is complete, drive mechanism 120 can control ball valve 110 to rotate 90° clockwise from the first position to the second position, connecting first conduit 151 to fourth conduit 141 via longitudinal slot 111a. This connects the liquid inlet of pressure mechanism 150 to output mechanism 140. Simultaneously, second conduit 152 connects to third conduit 131 via latitude slot 111b. This connects the liquid outlet of pressure mechanism 150 to liquid storage container 130. In this second position, disinfectant within the rail vehicle can flow back to pressure mechanism 150, which can then pump the disinfectant into liquid storage container 130 for recycling and reuse.

[0137] like Figure 15 As shown, after the disinfectant in pressure mechanism 150 is completely transferred to liquid storage container 130, drive mechanism 120 can control ball valve 110 to rotate 90° clockwise from the second position to the third position, connecting third conduit 131 to fourth conduit 141 via longitudinal slot 111a. This connects output mechanism 140 to liquid storage container 130. Simultaneously, first conduit 151 connects to second conduit 152 via latitude slot 111b, connecting the liquid outlet of pressure mechanism 150 to the liquid inlet of pressure mechanism 150. In this third position, residual disinfectant in the rail vehicle can flow directly back into liquid storage container 130 without flowing into pressure mechanism 150. Furthermore, pressure mechanism 150 is disconnected from liquid storage container 130 and output mechanism 140. Even if activated, it will not generate driving force for the disinfectant, effectively rendering it inactive. This prevents malfunction of pressure mechanism 150.

[0138] Among them, Figure 2 and Figure 6As shown, the actuator 210 includes a first connector, and the output mechanism 140 may include a second connector. The first connector may be a male connector, and the second connector may be a female connector. The first connector and the second connector can be automatically locked after being matched, which facilitates the connection between the disinfection device 100 and the actuator 210. The first connector and the second connector may both be self-locking quick connectors.

The air generator 160 can provide high-temperature compressed air. When the rail vehicle is disinfected, the air generator 160 can be activated and input high-temperature compressed air into the rail vehicle through the output mechanism 140, thereby providing heat to the carriage and quickly drying the dust filter 221, thereby avoiding liquid residue. This can further prevent the problem of electric fire or bacterial growth when the vehicle is started due to liquid residue, causing secondary contamination.

[0140] Specifically, if Figure 6 As shown, the air generator 160 is connected to the output mechanism 140 through a fifth pipe 161, and a valve 162 is provided on the fifth pipe 161. The valve 162 can control the circulation of air and prevent the disinfectant from flowing into the air generator 160.

[0141] The output mechanism 140 may be provided with a first pressure sensor 163 for detecting the air pressure in the output mechanism 140 , thereby facilitating determination of whether the air provided by the air generator 160 is in a normal operating state.

[0142] As a specific implementation method, Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the disinfection device 100 further includes an automatic travel mechanism 174, and the controller includes a first control module 176. The first control module 176 is electrically connected to the automatic travel mechanism 174. The first control module 176 can control the operation of the automatic travel mechanism 174 based on the position signal to connect the second access terminal 171 with the first access terminal 211. When the disinfection device 100 is set on the platform, the disinfection device 100 can move along a set trajectory via the automatic travel mechanism 174. The trajectory can enable the disinfection device 100 to move toward or away from the vehicle, thereby realizing automatic docking or detachment between the disinfection device 100 and the vehicle, saving manpower.

[0143] As a specific implementation method, Figure 1 and Figure 5As shown, the disinfection system also includes a charging device 300, which includes a second signal transmitter 320 for sending a charging signal; the disinfection device 100 also includes a second signal receiver 178 for receiving the charging signal; the controller also includes a second control module 177, which controls the action of the automatic walking mechanism 174 according to the charging signal, so that the disinfection device 100 cooperates with the charging device 300 for charging.

[0144] Among them, Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the charging device 300 can send a charging signal via Bluetooth, WiFi, ultrasound, etc., which can be received by the second signal receiver 178 of the disinfection device 100. The second control module 177 can analyze and process the charging signal and control the automatic travel mechanism 174 to move the disinfection device 100 automatically toward the charging device 300, thereby allowing the disinfection device 100 to automatically charge. The disinfection device 100 can be provided with a charging port 175, and the charging device 300 is provided with a charging head 310. The disinfection device 100 and the charging device 300 can be electrically connected through the charging port 175 and the charging head 310.

[0145] Among them, Figure 7 As shown, the first control module 176 and the second control module 177 can be a PCBA main control board, and the automatic walking mechanism 174 can include a motor, which can be electrically connected to the PCBA main control board, so that the PCBA main control board can control the motor, and then control the operation of the automatic walking mechanism 174 through the motor.

[0146] In addition, a battery can be provided in the execution device 210, and the execution device 210 also has an electromagnetic induction charging plug 213, and the disinfection device 100 has an electromagnetic induction charging socket 173. When the battery current is insufficient, the electromagnetic induction charging socket 173 of the disinfection device 100 can cooperate with the electromagnetic induction charging plug 213 of the execution device 210, so as to realize battery charging, ensure the normal operation of the execution device 210, and realize the normal progress of the disinfection operation.

[0147] As a specific implementation method, Figure 6 As shown, the disinfection device 100 also includes a second pressure sensor 153, which is connected to the output mechanism 140 and is used to detect the pressure of the disinfectant in the output mechanism 140. Based on the detected pressure, feedback can be provided on whether the disinfectant is operating normally. If the detected pressure is abnormal, it indicates that there is an abnormality in components such as the pressure mechanism 150 and the liquid storage container 130, so that timely inspection and maintenance can be carried out.

[0148] As a specific implementation method, Figure 6 As shown, the disinfection device 100 may further include a housing 170 , which may house components such as the pressure structure, the liquid storage container 130 , and the output mechanism 140 , thereby providing protection and dustproofing for these components and facilitating management of the disinfection device 100 .

[0149] As a specific implementation method, Figure 7 As shown, the liquid storage container 130 may be provided with a disinfectant remaining amount monitoring module 132 for detecting the remaining amount or usage of the disinfectant in the liquid storage container 130. Specifically, the disinfectant remaining amount monitoring module 132 may be a liquid level sensor, a buoyancy sensor, a weight sensor or a flow valve.

[0150] As a specific implementation method, the disinfection device 100 can also include a disinfection time monitoring module, which can be connected to the first control module 176 or the second control module 177 to monitor the single operation time of the disinfection equipment. When the single operation time reaches the set time, the first control module 176 or the second control module 177 connected to the disinfection time monitoring module will control the disinfection equipment to stop running.

[0151] As a specific implementation method, the disinfection device 100 can also include a disinfection reservation period module, which can be connected to the first control module 176 or the second control module 177, so that the disinfection time and disinfection period of a certain compartment can be accurately determined according to the passenger flow and air environment in the compartment of the rail transit vehicle.

[0152] As a specific implementation, the disinfection device 100 may further include an early warning module, which may be connected to the first control module 176 or the second control module 177 , so as to generate an alarm when a fault occurs during operation of the disinfection device 100 .

[0153] As a specific implementation, the vehicle body 200 is also provided with an air conditioning and ventilation system 220, which includes a dust filter 221. The dust filter 221 is positioned opposite to some nozzles 231 on the pipeline 230. During vehicle disinfection, the disinfectant sprayed from some nozzles 231 can fall onto the dust filter 221, thereby disinfecting and cleaning the dust filter 221. After disinfection is completed, the air generator 160 can be activated. The high-temperature, high-pressure air provided by the air generator 160 can be ejected through the nozzles 231. On the one hand, this can heat the interior of the vehicle body 200 and accelerate the drying of the disinfectant inside the vehicle body 200. On the other hand, it can also be blown toward the dust filter 221 through some nozzles 231, thereby accelerating the drying of the dust filter 221.

[0154] The pipeline 230 within the vehicle body 200 may include at least two pipelines 230, one of which can spray disinfectant and high-temperature, high-pressure air into the vehicle interior via a nozzle 231. This pipeline 230 can be provided with a flow meter 232 to limit the amount of disinfectant sprayed per unit time by this pipeline 230. Furthermore, this pipeline 230 can also be provided with a control valve 233 to control the on / off of this pipeline 230. The other pipeline 230 can spray disinfectant and high-temperature, high-pressure air onto the dust filter 221 via a nozzle 231. The nozzle 231 used to spray disinfectant and high-temperature, high-pressure air onto the dust filter 221 can be a jet nozzle 231. Compared to an atomizing nozzle 231, a jet nozzle 231 has a more concentrated spraying effect and can spray only onto the dust filter 221, thereby improving the drying effect of the disinfectant on the dust filter 221.

[0155] like Figure 16 As shown, the embodiment of the present application further provides a disinfection method, which can be used to disinfect the means of transport provided in any embodiment of the present application, and the disinfection method comprises the following steps:

[0156] Step S1: Receive a location signal sent by a vehicle.

[0157] The first signal receiver 172 on the disinfection device 100 can receive the position signal emitted by the first signal generator on the vehicle, thereby determining the position of the execution device 210 on the vehicle, so as to facilitate docking and matching of the disinfection device 100 and the execution device 210 .

[0158] In addition, the disinfection device 100 may also be provided with a driving trajectory module, which is used to analyze the position layout of each train and each carriage after searching for the location signal emitted by the vehicle, draw a driving trajectory map and a route map, and facilitate the positioning of the execution device 210 on different carriages, so as to facilitate the docking of the disinfection device 100 with the execution devices 210 of different carriages to disinfect different carriages.

[0159] Step S2: Control the disinfection device 100 to move to the first set position according to the position signal, so that the second access end 171 is docked with the first access end 211.

[0160] The first set position is a position where the disinfection device 100 can be docked with the execution device 210 .

[0161] Step S3 : Start the disinfection device 100 to spray disinfectant on the interior of the vehicle body 200 through the pipeline 230 in the vehicle body 200 .

[0162] Step S4: Check whether the preset disinfection time has been reached. If so, proceed to step S5.

[0163] The disinfection time monitoring module in the disinfection device 100 can monitor the single operation time of the disinfection device 100 and send out a time signal. The controller can control the start and stop of the disinfection device 100 according to the time signal.

[0164] Step S5: Control the disinfection device 100 to stop running.

[0165] Step S6: Control the disinfection device 100 to move to the second set position. After the disinfection is completed, the disinfection device 100 can be controlled to move back to the second set position, which is the initial position. This position is convenient for maintenance and management of the disinfection device 100.

[0166] Specifically, step S3 includes:

[0167] Step S31, control the ball valve 110 to rotate to the first position through the driving mechanism 120, so that the liquid storage container 130 is connected to the liquid inlet of the pressure mechanism 150 through the liquid channel 111 of the ball valve 110, and the liquid outlet of the pressure mechanism 150 is connected to the output mechanism 140 through the liquid channel 111.

[0168] Step S32 , start the pressure mechanism 150 to pump the disinfectant into the execution device 210 through the output mechanism 140 .

[0169] In the first position, the disinfectant can flow from the liquid storage container 130 into the pressure mechanism 150 , and then be pumped into the output mechanism 140 through the pressure mechanism 150 , and then output to the pipeline 230 of the rail vehicle through the output mechanism 140 for disinfection.

[0170] Specifically, step S5 includes:

[0171] Step S51, control the ball valve 110 to rotate to the second position through the driving mechanism 120, so that the liquid inlet of the pressure mechanism 150 is connected to the output mechanism 140 through the liquid channel 111 of the ball valve 110, and the liquid outlet of the pressure mechanism 150 is connected to the liquid storage container 130 through the liquid channel 111.

[0172] Step S52 , starting the pressure mechanism 150 to pump the disinfectant in the pressure mechanism 150 into the liquid storage container 130 .

[0173] In the second position, the disinfectant in the rail vehicle can be returned to the pressure mechanism 150 , and the pressure mechanism 150 can pump the disinfectant into the liquid storage container 130 for recovery and reuse.

[0174] Step S53: Control the ball valve 110 to rotate to the third position through the driving mechanism 120, so that the liquid inlet of the pressure mechanism 150 is connected to the liquid outlet of the pressure mechanism 150 through the liquid channel 111, and the liquid storage container 130 is connected to the output mechanism 140 through the liquid channel 111, so that the residual disinfectant in the vehicle can flow back to the liquid storage container 130.

[0175] In this third position, the residual disinfectant in the rail vehicle can flow directly back into the liquid storage container 130 without flowing into the pressure mechanism 150. Furthermore, the pressure mechanism 150 is not connected to the liquid storage container 130 or the output mechanism 140. Even if the pressure mechanism 150 is activated, it will not generate a driving force for the disinfectant, i.e., it is in an inactive state, thereby preventing malfunction of the pressure mechanism 150.

[0176] Specifically, after step S5, the disinfection method further includes:

[0177] The air generator 160 in the disinfection device 100 is activated to output high-temperature and high-pressure air to the vehicle body 200 and the dust filter device 221 through the pipeline 230 in the vehicle body 200 .

[0178] The air generator 160 can input high-temperature compressed air into the rail vehicle through the output mechanism 140, thereby providing heat for the carriage and quickly drying the dust filter device 221 to avoid liquid residue, thereby avoiding the problem of electric fire or bacterial growth when the vehicle is started due to liquid residue, causing secondary contamination.

[0179] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. Various modifications and variations are possible for those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present application shall be included within the scope of protection of the present application.
