[0019] Figure 4 This is a schematic structural diagram of the placement table of the utility model from a top view. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects achieved by the present invention easier to understand, the present invention is further described below in conjunction with specific implementation methods.

[0021] See also Figures 1-4The utility model provides a technical solution for an automatic disinfection device applied to a food delivery robot: it includes a placement chamber 2 for placing food and an ultraviolet disinfection lamp 3 acting in the placement chamber 2; in order to increase the storage quantity, the placement chamber 2 is provided with several. In one embodiment, several placement chambers 2 are distributed vertically, and two ultraviolet disinfection lamps 3 are embedded in the side wall of each placement chamber 2.

[0022] Furthermore, to enhance the disinfection effect, a liquid spraying structure 4 is provided at the top of the storage chamber 2. The liquid spraying structure 4 includes a disinfection bottle 42 filled with disinfectant and an electric spray head 41 disposed on the top surface of the storage chamber 2. The disinfection bottle 42 is threadedly connected to the electric spray head 41, allowing the disinfection liquid to be sprayed from the electric spray head 41 into the storage chamber 2. The threaded connection between the disinfection bottle 42 and the electric spray head 41 allows the disinfection bottle 42 to be removed and replaced, allowing it to be replaced when the disinfectant liquid is depleted. Preferably, the disinfection bottle 42 is inserted into the storage table 6, thereby connecting with the electric spray head 41. After insertion, the height of the disinfection bottle 42 is lower than the height of the top of the storage table 6. This ensures that the installed disinfection bottle 42 does not appear obtrusive in the storage chamber 2 and obstructs the placement of food. A strip-shaped protrusion 43 is provided on the bottom surface of the disinfection bottle 42, making it easier for staff to twist the protrusion 43 and rotate the disinfection bottle 42 for easy removal.

[0023] Furthermore, each of the plurality of storage chambers 2 is provided with a door 8 slidably mounted on the food delivery robot 1. To interact with the UV disinfection lamp 3 and the electric spray head 41, a sensor switch 7 is provided on the side of the food delivery robot 1 corresponding to the door 8. The sensor switch 7 activates and deactivates the UV disinfection lamp 3 and the electric spray head 41 via an existing controller (not shown). In one embodiment, the door 8 automatically resets via an existing damping structure (not shown). When a user pulls the door 8 to remove food, the door automatically resets, causing it to contact the sensor switch 7. When the door is closed, the UV disinfection lamp 3 and the electric spray head 41 are activated (once activated), thereby disinfecting the storage chamber 2. When the door is open, the door 8 is not contacted by the sensor switch 7, and the UV disinfection lamp 3 and the electric spray head 41 are not activated. The above-mentioned electrical components such as the induction switch 7, electric nozzle 41, ultraviolet disinfection lamp 3, etc. are all conventional components. People in this field can directly purchase them on the market and realize the functions through simple circuit programming. Therefore, the models used and their circuit structure diagrams will not be described in detail in this manual.

[0024] Furthermore, to prevent the leakage of some food from affecting the placement chamber 2, a placement table 6 for placing food is provided on the inner bottom of the placement chamber 2. The placement table 6 is in the shape of a truncated cone, and the truncated cone plane of the placement table 6 will occupy at least three-fifths of the bottom surface of the placement chamber 2. In this way, the leaked food (such as liquid food such as soup) can flow along the slope of the placement table 6 to the outer edge of the placement table 6, and the placed items have a sufficient flat surface to be placed and will not fall off the edge. A slag leakage structure 5 is provided on the outer edge of the placement table 6. The slag leakage structure 5 includes a filter 51, a slag trough 52, and a slag collecting bucket 53. The filter 51 is provided on the inner bottom of the placement chamber 2 and distributed on the outer edge of the placement table 6. The slag trough 52 is provided in an annular shape and corresponds to the filter 51. The slag collecting bucket 53 is connected to the slag trough 52, and the slag collecting bucket 53 can be plugged into the food delivery robot 1 to fix the slag collecting bucket 53. In this way, when food leaks, the soup flows along the slope of the placement table 6 to the filter 51, the filter 51 intercepts the solid food, and the liquid passes through the filter 51 and flows into the leakage groove 52, and then flows from the leakage groove 52 to the slag collecting hopper 53. The slag collecting hopper 53 has a certain capacity and collects the food for subsequent processing by the staff.

[0025] Preferably, the door is provided with a visible window 9, and under the operation of the staff, the user's order information, or pickup code, or hotel room number can be mapped to the window 9 to prevent the user from taking the wrong item.

[0026] The above shows and describes the basic principles and main features of the present invention and the advantages of the present invention. It is obvious to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the above exemplary embodiments, and that the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of the present invention. Therefore, from all points of view, the embodiments should be regarded as illustrative and non-restrictive. The scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the above description, and it is intended that all changes that fall within the meaning and range of equivalents of the claims are included in the present invention. Any reference signs in the claims should not be construed as limiting the claim to which they relate.

[0027] In addition, it should be understood that although this specification is described in terms of implementation methods, not every implementation method contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative method of the specification is only for the sake of clarity. Those skilled in the art should regard the specification as a whole. The technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other implementation methods that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
