[0040] Figures 1 to 3 Shown is a bathroom cabinet 200 in an embodiment of the utility model, and the bathroom cabinet 200 includes a cabinet 201, a disinfection module 100 and a drive mechanism 304. In some embodiments, the disinfection module 100 can be a module for disinfecting toiletries (such as toothbrushes, razors, etc.). For example, the disinfection module 100 can disinfect toiletries by ultraviolet rays, and accordingly, the disinfection module 100 has a space for accommodating toiletries and an ultraviolet lamp. Alternatively, in other embodiments, the disinfection module 100 can disinfect toiletries by high temperature, and accordingly, the disinfection module 100 has a space for accommodating toiletries and a heating wire. Alternatively, in other embodiments, the disinfection module 100 can spray disinfecting substances into the space where the bathroom cabinet 200 is located, thereby disinfecting the environment (such as a bathroom) where the bathroom cabinet 200 is located. The disinfecting substance can be a hypochlorous acid solution or other types of disinfectants, or it can be ions and groups with strong oxidizing properties and capable of sterilization and disinfection. The specific disinfection methods of the disinfection module 100 are not listed one by one here.

[0041] like Figure 3 As shown, the cabinet 201 is provided with a storage cavity 301, and the storage cavity 301 includes a first opening 306. The storage cavity 301 can accommodate at least a part of the disinfection module 100, and the first opening 306 can allow the disinfection module 100 to pass through. The driving mechanism 304 is connected to the disinfection module 100, and the driving mechanism 304 is used to drive the disinfection module 100 to move, so that the disinfection module 100 passes through the first opening 306, and the disinfection module 100 switches between the first position 401 and the second position 402. Figure 1 In the embodiment, the disinfection module 100 is located at the first position 401; and Figure 3 , the disinfection module 100 is located at the second position 402. When the disinfection module 100 is at the first position 401, the volume of the portion of the disinfection module 100 disposed in the storage cavity 301 is V1, and when the disinfection module 100 is at the second position 402, the volume of the portion of the disinfection module 100 disposed in the storage cavity 301 is V2, V2>V1.

[0042] Please combine Figure 1 and Figure 3Compared with the state when the disinfection module 100 is in the first position 401, when the disinfection module 100 is in the second position 402, the volume of the part of the disinfection module 100 exposed outside the cabinet 201 is smaller, the volume of the part of the disinfection module 100 that is stored is larger, and the space occupied by the bathroom cabinet 200 as a whole is smaller. When the disinfection module 100 is not needed for disinfection, the user can drive the disinfection module 100 from the first position 401 to the second position 402 through the driving mechanism 304, so as to store the disinfection module 100. In addition, in the process of storing the disinfection module 100, the driving mechanism 304 drives the disinfection module 100 to move, and the user does not need to remove the disinfection module 100 and manually carry the disinfection module 100, and the storage convenience of the disinfection module 100 is higher.

[0043] exist Figures 1 to 3 In the embodiment shown, the second position 402 is located above the first position 401, the first opening 306 is located at the bottom of the cabinet 201, and the driving mechanism 304 is used to drive the disinfection module 100 to rise and fall. When the disinfection module 100 is in the first position 401, at least a portion of the disinfection module 100 is located below the cabinet 201 (such as Figure 1 ). In this arrangement, based on the common installation height of the bathroom cabinet 200, when the disinfection module 100 is in the first position 401, the height of the disinfection module 100 is moderate, which is convenient for the user to use and repair the disinfection module 100. In addition, the bathroom cabinet 200 is usually installed above the basin, and the basin is prone to water accumulation and dirt accumulation. Therefore, if the disinfection module 100 is used to disinfect the external environment, then the disinfection module 100 is located below the cabinet 201, which also makes the disinfection module 100 suitable for disinfecting the area around the basin.

[0044] In other embodiments not shown in the figures, the first position 401 and the second position 402 may also be distributed in the horizontal direction. Accordingly, the driving mechanism 304 may drive the disinfection module 100 to move in the horizontal direction. When the disinfection module 100 is in the first position 401, the disinfection module 100 may also be located at the front, left or right side of the cabinet 201.

[0045] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, when the disinfection module 100 is in the second position 402, the disinfection module 100 is completely located in the storage cavity 301. This arrangement is conducive to further reducing the space occupied by the bathroom cabinet 200 after the disinfection module 100 is stored. "The disinfection module 100 is completely located in the storage cavity 301" means that the disinfection module 100 does not protrude relative to the outer surface of the cabinet 201. For example, Figure 3As shown, when the disinfection module 100 is in the second position 402 , the bottom surface 106 of the disinfection module 100 is higher than the bottom surface 106 of the cabinet 201 , the disinfection module 100 does not protrude downward relative to the bottom surface 106 of the cabinet 201 , and the disinfection module 100 is completely located in the storage cavity 301 .

[0046] like Figure 3 As shown, the drive mechanism 304 is located in the storage cavity 301, thereby reducing the space occupied by the bathroom cabinet 200. Figure 3 As shown, the cabinet 201 includes a plurality of partitions 305 spaced apart in the vertical direction, the partitions 305 divide the storage cavity 301 into a plurality of storage compartments, and the driving mechanism 304 is located in the storage compartment at the bottom.

[0047] Figures 4 to 6 The driving mechanism 304 in some embodiments is shown, and the driving mechanism 304 includes a guide rail seat 309, a screw rod 315, a connecting seat 310 and a motor 308. The guide rail seat 309 is fixedly connected to the cabinet 201, the guide rail seat 309 is slidably connected to the connecting seat 310, and the connecting seat 310 is fixedly connected to the disinfection module 100. Specifically, the connecting seat 310 includes a side support plate 311, a lower support plate 312 and a slider 313 (such as Figure 6 The slider 313 is fixed to the rear side of the side support plate 311 (as shown in Figure 5 As shown in Figure 8 As shown, the side support plate 311 is used to connect with the side of the disinfection module 100, and the lower support plate 312 is used to connect with the bottom of the disinfection module 100. Figure 6As shown, the guide rail seat 309 includes a track portion 316, and the slider 313 is connected to the track portion 316. The slider 313 can slide along the track portion 316, and the track portion 316 can prevent the slider 313 from rotating synchronously with the screw rod 315. The screw rod 315 is rotatably connected to the guide rail seat 309, and the screw rod 315 is threadedly connected to the connecting seat 310. More specifically, the screw rod 315 passes through the slider 313, and the slider 313 is provided with an internal thread (not shown), and the internal thread and the external thread on the screw rod 315 are engaged with each other. The motor 308 is connected to the screw rod 315, and the motor 308 is used to drive the screw rod 315 to rotate relative to the guide rail seat 309 (the central axis of the screw rod 315 is the rotation axis of the screw rod 315), so that the connecting seat 310 moves along the axial direction of the screw rod 315, and the disinfection module 100 fixed to the connecting seat 310 also moves along the axial direction of the screw rod 315. In this way, the driving mechanism 304 can drive the disinfection module 100 to move. The extension direction of the track portion 316 is the same as the axial direction of the screw rod 315. The driving mechanism 304 can also be set as other mechanisms that can drive an object to perform linear motion, which are not exemplified here. In addition, the connection seat 310 and the disinfection module 100 can be connected in a detachable manner such as a snap connection or a screw connection, so that the user can repair the disinfection module 100 or add the liquid to be electrolyzed 119 to the disinfection module 100.

[0048] like Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the motor 308 of the drive mechanism 304 can be powered by a battery 314. In other embodiments, the motor 308 can also be powered by the mains, and accordingly, a socket 307 (such as Figure 3 As shown in Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments, the bathroom cabinet 200 further includes a sheath 317, which surrounds the outer circumference of the disinfection module 100. The sheath 317 can be installed at the first opening 306, and the sheath 317 can guide the movement of the disinfection module 100 to improve the stability of the disinfection module 100 during movement.

[0049] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the storage cavity 301 further includes a second opening 302. For example, the first opening 306 is located at the bottom end of the storage cavity 301 (eg, Figure 3 The second opening 302 is located at the front end of the storage cavity 301 (as shown in FIG. Figure 2 The bathroom cabinet 200 further includes a cabinet door 202, which is movably connected to the cabinet body 201, and the cabinet door 202 can cover the second opening 302 to prevent the objects stored in the storage cavity 301 from being exposed. For example, the cabinet door 202 is connected to the cabinet body 201 via a hinge 303. In some embodiments, the bathroom cabinet 200 is configured as a mirror cabinet, that is, the cabinet door 202 includes a door frame and a lens mounted on the door frame.

[0050] In some embodiments, the bathroom cabinet 200 further includes a button assembly 203, and a button assembly 203 is provided on a side surface of the cabinet door 202 facing away from the storage cavity 301, and the button assembly 203 is communicatively connected with the drive mechanism 304. In order to improve the aesthetics of the bathroom cabinet 200, the button assembly 203 can be set as a capacitive touch button assembly. The button assembly 203 and the drive mechanism 304 can communicate through a wire, or can communicate through Bluetooth or other wireless transmission methods. The button assembly 203 is used to start the drive mechanism 304 so that the disinfection module 100 switches between the first position 401 and the second position 402. For example, the button assembly 203 includes a switch key, and the user can make the drive mechanism 304 drive the disinfection module 100 to move by pressing the switch key. In addition, the button assembly 203 can also be communicatively connected with the disinfection module 100, and the button assembly 203 is used to switch the operating state of the disinfection module 100. The user can manually control the disinfection module 100 through the button assembly 203. Switching the operating state of the disinfection module 100 can be turning on the disinfection module 100, turning off the disinfection module 100, changing the disinfection mode, and the like. In addition to the above-mentioned on / off key, the key assembly 203 may also include multiple keys, for example, one key is used to turn on and off the disinfection module 100, and another key is used to change the disinfection mode.

[0051] like Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments, the disinfection module 100 includes an air outlet 103, and the disinfection module 100 can spray disinfectant from the air outlet 103. That is, the disinfection module 100 is used to disinfect the external environment of the bathroom cabinet 200. Accordingly, when the disinfection module 100 is in the first position 401, the air outlet 103 is exposed outside the cabinet 201 (such as Figure 1 When the disinfection module 100 is in the second position 402, the disinfection module 100 does not operate (does not spray disinfectant); at this time, the air outlet 103 is located in the storage cavity 301 (as shown in FIG. Figure 3 As shown), air and water in the external environment are prevented from entering the interior of the disinfection module 100 through the air outlet 103, thereby reducing the risk of bacteria growing inside the disinfection module 100.

[0052] The structure of the disinfection module 100 is described in detail below.

[0053] Figures 9 to 12The disinfection module 100 of one embodiment of the utility model is shown, and the disinfection module 100 includes a housing 101, a fan 116, a first disinfection device, and a second disinfection device. The housing 101 includes an air duct 118, and the air duct 118 includes an air inlet 102 and an air outlet 103, and the air inlet 102 and the air outlet 103 are both located on the outer surface of the housing 101. The fan 116 is used to drive air to flow along the air duct 118, and the second disinfection device is arranged in the air duct 118. The specific structures of the first disinfection device and the second disinfection device will be described in detail below.

[0054] The disinfection module 100 has a first disinfection mode and a second disinfection mode, and these two disinfection modes do not run at the same time. Fig.11 In the figure, the dotted line with an arrow indicates the main flow path of the air when the fan 116 is running. Whether the disinfection module 100 is in the first disinfection mode or the second disinfection mode, the path of the air flow flowing through the air duct 118 is basically the same. However, when the disinfection module 100 is in different disinfection modes, the operating states of the first disinfection device and the second disinfection device are different. When the disinfection module 100 is in the first disinfection mode, the second disinfection device is closed, the first disinfection device sprays the disinfectant into the air duct 118, and the fan 116 blows the disinfectant out of the air outlet 103. When the disinfection module 100 is in the second disinfection mode, the first disinfection device is closed, and the fan 116 blows the disinfectant particles out of the air outlet 103. The disinfectant can be a hypochlorous acid solution. When the second disinfection device ionizes the air, it can ionize the oxygen and / or water vapor in the air, and the disinfection particles can include ions (such as negative oxygen ions, hydrogen ions, hydroxides, etc.) and groups (such as hydroxyls). In addition, whether the disinfection module is in the first disinfection mode or the second disinfection mode, the disinfection module is in the first position, and the air outlet is exposed to the outside of the cabinet.

[0055] That is, in the first disinfection mode, the disinfection module 100 mainly disinfects the surrounding environment of the disinfection module 100 by spraying disinfectant; in the second disinfection mode, the disinfection module 100 mainly disinfects the surrounding environment of the disinfection module 100 by spraying disinfectant particles. The disinfection module 100 of the utility model has two different disinfection modes and can disinfect the environment by different types of disinfectants. Compared with the disinfection module 100 that only uses disinfectant for disinfection in the prior art, the disinfection module 100 of the utility model can be applied to more scenes. In addition, for the disinfection module 100 of the utility model, the air duct 118 and the fan 116 of the two disinfection modes are shared, and the air flow path when blowing out the disinfectant and the air flow path when blowing out the disinfectant particles are basically the same. The disinfection module 100 does not need to set a dedicated air duct 118 for the disinfectant and the disinfectant particles, and the disinfection module 100 does not need to set a dedicated fan 116 for the disinfectant and the disinfectant particles. Therefore, the structure of the disinfection module 100 is simpler, and the manufacturing difficulty and cost are lower.

[0056] In some embodiments, the first disinfection device includes an electrolyzer 109 and a spraying unit 114. The first disinfection device has the function of generating disinfectant and also has the function of spraying disinfectant. Fig. 9 and Fig.10 In this embodiment, the housing 101 includes an outer frame 117, a water tank 111 and an upper cover 108. Fig.11 As shown, the housing 101 further includes a liquid storage chamber 110, which is disposed in a water tank 111, and the water tank 111 is disposed inside an outer frame 117. The upper cover 108 is detachably mounted on the top of the outer frame 117, and the upper cover 108 covers the liquid storage chamber 110 of the water tank 111. The liquid storage chamber 110 is used to contain a liquid 119 to be electrolyzed. If the disinfectant is a hypochlorous acid solution, the liquid 119 to be electrolyzed contains chlorine. For example, in order to save costs, the liquid 119 to be electrolyzed can be a sodium chloride aqueous solution (i.e., salt water) or tap water. Fig.11 As shown, the water tank 111 and the inner surface of the outer frame 117 together surround the air duct 118, and the air inlet 102 and the air outlet 103 are both arranged on the outer surface of the outer frame 117. The electrolyzer 109 is arranged in the liquid storage chamber 110, and the electrolyzer 109 includes an electrode sheet (the electrode sheet is not shown), and the electrode sheet can contact the liquid to be electrolyzed 119 in the liquid storage chamber 110. When the electrode sheet is energized, the electrolyzer 109 will electrolyze the liquid to be electrolyzed 119. Fig.11 As shown, the spray unit 114 is connected to the housing 101, for example, the spray unit 114 is fixed to the water tank 111 by screws. The spray unit 114 includes a spray inlet 120 and a spray outlet 121, the spray inlet 120 is connected to the liquid storage chamber 110, and the spray outlet 121 is connected to the air duct 118, and the spray outlet 121 is used to spray the disinfectant into the air duct 118. When the disinfection module is in the first disinfection mode, the electrolyzer 109 electrolyzes the liquid to be electrolyzed 119 to generate the disinfectant in the liquid storage chamber, and the spray unit 114 sprays the disinfectant into the air duct 118.

[0057] like Fig.11As shown, the second disinfection device includes an ion generator 115, which is arranged in the air duct 118. The ion generator 115 can be used to ionize the water vapor in the air duct 118, thereby producing hydrogen ions and hydroxyl groups. Wherein, "water vapor in the air duct 118" is specifically the water vapor contained in the air in the air duct 118. The ion generator 115 is also equipped with an electrode (not shown), which is located in the air duct 118 and can contact the water vapor in the air duct 118. After the electrode is energized, the ion generator 115 will ionize the water vapor. The fan 116 is used to drive the air to flow along the air duct 118, that is, the fan 116 can drive the air to enter the air duct 118 from the air inlet 102, and drive the air to leave the air duct 118 from the air outlet 103. The fan 116 can be installed in the air duct 118, the fan 116 is located at the bottom of the water tank 111, and the fan 116 is connected to the water tank 111 or the outer frame 117 by screws.

[0058] like Fig.10 As shown, the disinfection module 100 further includes a circuit board 112 and a cover plate 113, the circuit board 112 is connected to the water tank 111, and the circuit board 112 is located outside the liquid storage chamber 110. The cover plate 113 is connected to the water tank 111 by screws, and the cover plate 113 covers the circuit board 112. The circuit board 112 includes a controller (not specifically shown), which is used to control the operation of the fan 116, the electrolyzer 109, the ion generator 115 and the spray unit 114.

[0059] When the disinfection module 100 is in the first disinfection mode, the electrolyzer 109 electrolyzes the liquid to be electrolyzed 119 to generate a hypochlorous acid solution in the liquid storage chamber 110, and the spraying unit 114 sprays the hypochlorous acid solution into the air duct 118, and the ion generator 115 is turned off, and the ion generator 115 does not ionize the water vapor in the air duct 118; the hypochlorous acid solution sprayed into the air duct 118 will be mixed into the air flow formed by the fan 116 (for example, this air flow will carry hypochlorous acid droplets), and the fan 116 will blow the hypochlorous acid solution out of the air outlet 103. Taking salt water as an example, the chemical formula for generating a hypochlorous acid solution by electrolyzing the liquid to be electrolyzed 119 is as follows:

[0060]

[0061] Cl2+H2O=HCl+HClO.

[0062] When the disinfection module 100 is in the second disinfection mode, the electrolyzer 109 and the spraying unit 114 are turned off, the electrolyzer 109 does not perform electrolysis, and the spraying unit 114 does not spray the hypochlorous acid solution or the liquid to be electrolyzed 119 into the air duct 118; the ion generator 115 ionizes the water vapor in the air duct 118 to generate hydrogen ions and hydroxyl groups, and the fan 116 blows the hydrogen ions and hydroxyl groups out from the air outlet 103.

[0063] That is, in the first disinfection mode, the disinfection module 100 mainly disinfects the surrounding environment of the disinfection module 100 by spraying hypochlorous acid; in the second disinfection mode, the disinfection module 100 mainly disinfects the surrounding environment of the disinfection module 100 by spraying hydroxyl. The first disinfection mode can be applicable to scenes where bacteria are easy to breed and require a strong disinfection effect, such as bathrooms and toilets when no one is around. The second disinfection mode can be applicable to scenes where people stay for a long time to prevent hypochlorous acid from causing human discomfort. If there are items in the environment where the disinfection module 100 is located that may be easily corroded by hypochlorous acid, the user can also make the disinfection module 100 run in the second disinfection mode. Therefore, the disinfection module 100 of the utility model has two different disinfection modes and can disinfect the environment through different disinfectants. Compared with the disinfection module in the prior art that only uses hypochlorous acid for disinfection, the disinfection module 100 of the utility model can be applied to more scenes.

[0064] In some embodiments, the spray unit 114 can be configured as an atomizer. When the disinfection module 100 is in the first disinfection mode, the spray unit 114 atomizes the disinfectant (e.g., hypochlorous acid solution) and sprays the atomized disinfectant into the air duct 118. More specifically, in some embodiments, the atomizer can be configured as an ultrasonic atomizer, which has an ultrasonic atomizer sheet, one side surface of the ultrasonic atomizer sheet is in contact with the liquid to be electrolyzed 119, and the other side surface of the ultrasonic atomizer sheet faces the spray outlet 121, and the atomizer sheet uses high-frequency oscillation to break up the liquid so as to atomize the liquid. In other embodiments not shown, in order to spray the disinfectant into the air duct 118, the spray unit 114 may also include a pump and a nozzle, the pump transports the hypochlorous acid solution to the nozzle, and the nozzle sprays the hypochlorous acid solution into the air duct 118. When the spray unit 114 is configured as an atomizer, the hypochlorous acid solution sprayed by the spray unit 114 is in the form of mist, and the misted hypochlorous acid solution can be more fully dispersed into the airflow generated by the fan 116, and hypochlorous acid is also more easily diffused in the environment where the disinfection module 100 is located. In addition, in order to reduce the cost of the disinfection module 100, in other embodiments not shown in the figure, the first disinfection device may also omit the function of generating the disinfectant, and the first disinfection device may only include the spray unit 114 without the electrolyzer 109, and the liquid storage chamber 110 directly stores the disinfectant.

[0065] In some embodiments, the electrolyzer 109 can be mounted on the bottom wall 124 of the liquid storage chamber 110. In this way, even if the liquid to be electrolyzed 119 in the liquid storage chamber 110 is small, the electrolyzer 109 can still contact the liquid to be electrolyzed 119 in the liquid storage chamber 110, and the liquid level of the liquid to be electrolyzed 119 does not need to be kept at a high position all the time, and the user does not need to frequently replenish the liquid to be electrolyzed 119 in the liquid storage chamber 110.

[0066] In other embodiments, Fig.12 As shown, the housing 101 further includes a mounting groove 125, which is disposed at the water tank 111. The mounting groove 125 includes a third opening 126, which is located at the top of the mounting groove 125 and the bottom wall 124 of the liquid storage chamber 110. The electrolyzer 109 is disposed in the mounting groove 125. In this arrangement, even if the liquid to be electrolyzed 119 in the liquid storage chamber 110 is small, the electrolyzer 109 can contact the liquid to be electrolyzed 119 in the liquid storage chamber 110. In addition, the mounting groove 125 can position the electrolyzer 109, which facilitates the installation of the electrolyzer 109.

[0067] In some embodiments, the fan 116 can be configured as a centrifugal fan 116, such as Fig.11 As shown, the fan 116 includes a fan casing 122, an impeller 123 and a motor (the motor is not shown). The fan casing 122 is connected to the water tank 111 or the outer frame 117. The impeller 123 is located in the fan casing 122. The motor drives the impeller 123 to rotate, thereby forming an airflow.

[0068] Please refer to Fig. 9 and Fig.10 In some embodiments, the outer surface of the housing 101 includes a bottom surface 106, a top surface 107, and a plurality of side surfaces 104, the top ends of the side surfaces 104 are connected to the top surface 107, and the bottom ends of the side surfaces 104 are connected to the bottom surface 106. Figure 1 and Figure 2 The disinfection module 100 shown in the figure has a shell 101 in the shape of a cuboid, and the shell 101 includes four side surfaces 104, namely a front side surface 105, a rear side surface, a right side surface and a left side surface. An air inlet 102 is arranged on the bottom surface 106, and an air outlet 103 is arranged on at least one side surface 104. Fig. 9 In the illustrated embodiment, in order to simplify the structure of the air duct 118, only the front side 105 of the four side surfaces 104 of the housing 101 is provided with an air outlet 103. However, in other embodiments, air outlets 103 may be additionally provided on the remaining side surfaces 104 to expand the disinfection range of the disinfection module 100. Since the air inlet 102 is provided on the bottom surface 106, and the air outlet 103 is provided on the side surface 104, the disinfection module 100 is suitable for being provided at the bottom of the cabinet 201. When the disinfection module 100 is in the first position, the air inlet 102 and the air outlet 103 are not easily blocked by the cabinet 201, and the air flow can normally enter and exit the air duct 118. Moreover, when the spray outlet 121 is oriented horizontally and the ion generator 115 is located below the spray unit 114, setting the air outlet 103 on the side 104 is beneficial for shortening the flow path of the airflow (compared to the case where the air outlet 103 is located on the top surface 107 of the shell 101), thereby improving the efficiency of blowing the disinfectant and disinfectant particles out of the air outlet 103.

[0069] like Fig.11 As shown, in some embodiments, in order for the disinfectant to be sprayed out from the air outlet 103, the spray outlet 121 and the air outlet 103 can be arranged opposite to each other, and the axis of the spray outlet 121 coincides with the axis of the air outlet 103, and both axes are straight lines L.

[0070] In some embodiments, in order to facilitate the spraying of disinfectant and disinfectant particles from the air outlet 103 and the diffusion of disinfectant and disinfectant particles in the environment, the air outlet 103 can be configured such that the cross-sectional area of ​​the air outlet 103 gradually increases from the end of the air outlet 103 close to the spray outlet 121 to the end of the air outlet 103 away from the spray outlet 121. The cross-sectional area of ​​the air outlet 103 refers to the area of ​​the portion of the air outlet 103 on a plane perpendicular to the axis (straight line L) of the air outlet 103. Fig.11 As shown, in order to meet the above conditions, the air outlet 103 can be trumpet-shaped, and the end of the air outlet 103 close to the spray outlet 121 is the rear end of the air outlet 103, and the end of the air outlet 103 away from the spray outlet 121 is the front end of the air outlet 103. From the rear end of the air outlet 103 to the front end of the air outlet 103, the diameter of the air outlet 103 gradually increases.

[0071] like Fig.11 As shown, in some embodiments, the fan 116 is located in the air duct 118, the fan 116 is located upstream of the ionizer 115, and the fan 116 is located upstream of the spray outlet 121. The fan 116 being located upstream of the ionizer 115 means that the airflow in the air duct 118 first passes through the fan 116 and then passes through the ionizer 115. Similarly, the fan 116 being located upstream of the spray outlet 121 means that the airflow in the air duct 118 first passes through the fan 116 and then passes through the spray outlet 121. The fan 116 being located upstream of the ionizer 115 and the spray outlet 121 can prevent the fan 116 from consuming the hydroxyl and hypochlorous acid solution used to disinfect the external environment. In addition, droplets of hypochlorous acid solution may cause a short circuit in the motor of the fan 116, and may also overlook the impeller 123 and the motor of the fan 116, thereby affecting the life of the motor. Therefore, the fan 116 is located upstream of the spray outlet 121, which can also reduce the contact between the hypochlorous acid solution and the motor and reduce the adverse effects of the hypochlorous acid solution on the motor.

[0072] In some embodiments, the spray outlet 121 and the ion generator 115 are staggered. This arrangement can reduce the hypochlorous acid droplets sprayed onto the surface of the ion generator 115, thereby reducing the interference of the hypochlorous acid droplets on the ion generator 115. Among them, "the spray outlet 121 and the ion generator 115 are staggered" means that: in the axial direction of the spray outlet 121, the spray outlet 121 and the ion generator 115 have no overlapping parts. In order to make the spray outlet 121 and the ion generator 115 staggered, the position of the spray unit 114 and the ion generator 115 can be set to Figure 3 As shown in the form. Fig.11 As shown, the ion generator 115 is located upstream of the spray unit 114 (the airflow passes through the ion generator 115 first and then the spray unit 114), the spray unit 114 is located above the ion generator 115, and the spray outlet 121 of the spray unit 114 is arranged forward.

[0073] In some embodiments, the disinfection module 100 also has the function of automatically selecting a disinfection mode according to the environmental conditions, and the disinfection module 100 has a high degree of intelligence. Specifically, the bathroom cabinet 200 also includes a sensor, which is installed on the cabinet body 201 or installed on the disinfection module 100. The sensor is connected to the disinfection module 100 in communication, and at least a part of the detection area of ​​the sensor is located in front of the disinfection module 100. Among them, the air outlet 103 is set forward, and the direction of the air outlet 103 is "front". The sensor can be an infrared sensor, the sensor and the detection area are not shown in the accompanying drawings, the detection area of ​​the sensor is roughly fan-shaped or cone-shaped, and the sensor can be set forward or forward and downward. The sensor can be installed on the cabinet door 202, or on the front side 105 of the housing 101 of the disinfection module 100. When the sensor detects that someone is located in the detection area, the disinfection module 100 operates in the second disinfection mode, that is, disinfection is performed by hydroxyl. When the sensor detects that no one is located in the detection area, the disinfection module 100 operates in the first disinfection mode, that is, disinfection is performed by hypochlorous acid solution. When someone is in the detection area, in order to reduce the impact of hypochlorous acid on the human body, the disinfection module 100 disinfects through hydroxyl; when no one is in the detection area, the disinfection module 100 uses hypochlorous acid with stronger disinfection ability for disinfection, thereby performing a stronger disinfection on the environment where the disinfection module 100 is located.

[0074] It should be noted that, in other embodiments not shown in the figures, in order to save the cost of the disinfection module 100, the disinfection module 100 may also only have the first disinfection device or only have the second disinfection device.
