The nano-titanium dioxide catalytic film can effectively decompose harmful substances in the air, such as organic matter, bacteria, and viruses, improving air purification effectiveness.
[0029] The air purification device has an ingenious structural design. By arranging the photocatalytic module, air fan and disinfection area in sequence, each functional area is clearly defined, so that the air entering the purification device undergoes the disinfection and purification process in sequence. The photocatalytic module is fixed to the air outlet on the upper cover by a fan, which not only can use the airflow generated by the fan to force the air to pass through the photocatalytic module, but also reduce the resistance of the airflow when passing through the photocatalytic module, thereby reducing energy consumption and improving the overall efficiency of the air purification device. At the same time, the fan helps to quickly disperse the heat generated by the photocatalytic module, reduce the temperature of the equipment, and improve the working stability of the equipment. The air purification device can more effectively combine ultraviolet disinfection and photocatalytic technology, thereby improving the overall air purification performance and providing users with a healthier and fresher air environment.
[0030] Optionally, the ultraviolet disinfection module 50 includes at least two circuit boards 51 arranged up and down below the fan 40; a plurality of evenly distributed ultraviolet lamp beads 52 are provided on the circuit board 51; the plurality of circuit boards arranged up and down increase the irradiation area of the ultraviolet disinfection module, helping to cover more space and improve the air purification effect. The uniform array of the plurality of ultraviolet lamp beads can ensure that the ultraviolet irradiation in the disinfection area is more uniform, thereby improving the disinfection efficiency and more effectively killing bacteria, viruses and other microorganisms in the air.

Through holes 53 are provided on all circuit boards 51; the through holes 53 of two adjacent circuit boards 51 are staggered with each other, so that the air can be fully purified when passing through the through holes.

[0032] Furthermore, the surface of the fan blade 43 facing the ultraviolet disinfection module 50 is evenly coated with a first reflective layer, and the surface of the fan blade 43 facing the photocatalytic template is evenly coated with a second reflective layer; the first reflective layer is used to reflect the ultraviolet light of the ultraviolet disinfection module 50 to the second reflective layer of the next fan blade 43; the second reflective layer reflects the received ultraviolet light to the photocatalytic module, which can effectively transmit the ultraviolet light to the photocatalytic module, reduce the loss of ultraviolet light, increase the utilization rate of ultraviolet light, and further improve the purification efficiency of the photocatalytic module.
[0033] Furthermore, a groove 22 for accommodating the photocatalytic module 30 and identical to the mounting cavity 01 is provided on one side surface of the upper cover 20 located at the air outlet 21 , resulting in a compact structure.
[0034] Furthermore, a plasma decomposition module 60 is provided between the air inlet 11 and the disinfection zone to ionize and sterilize harmful gases and particulate matter in the air of the installation cavity 01. The reasonable layout of the photocatalytic module, the disinfection zone and the plasma decomposition module ensures the comprehensiveness and efficiency of the air purification process. In this embodiment, the plasma decomposition module 60 is a common prior art in this field. It ionizes harmful gases and particulate matter in the air, turning them into small particles that are easy to capture, thereby achieving the purpose of air purification. The role of plasma in the purifier mainly includes two aspects. On the one hand, it turns harmful gases and particulate matter in the air into small particles that are easy to capture through ionization. On the other hand, it produces a large amount of oxygen ions and negative ions. Oxygen ions and negative ions can also react with bacteria, viruses and other microorganisms in the air, causing the bacteria, viruses and other microorganisms in the air to die or inactivate, thereby achieving the effect of air purification.
[0035] Furthermore, a negative ion generator 70 is provided in the installation cavity 01 for generating negative ions to purify the air in the installation cavity 01. It is worth noting that the negative ion generator 70 is a prior art in this field, and its purification principle and specific structure are not described in detail.
[0036] Furthermore, a controller 80 is provided on the shell 10; the photocatalytic module 30, the fan 40, the ultraviolet disinfection module 50 and the negative ion generator 70 are all electrically connected to and controlled by the controller 80; it is worth noting that the controller 80, as well as the electrical connection relationship and control principle between the controller 80 and each component are conventional technical means in this field and there is no need for improvement, so they will not be elaborated here.
[0037] It should be understood that those skilled in the art can make improvements or changes based on the above description, and all such improvements and changes should fall within the scope of protection of the claims attached to this utility model.
