Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of disinfection cabinets, and particularly relates to a mother and baby disinfection cabinet with double air ducts for internal and external circulation. Background Art
[0002] The main disinfection methods used in maternal and infant sterilizers include ultraviolet (UV) disinfection, high-temperature disinfection, ozone disinfection, and plasma disinfection. UV disinfection uses ultraviolet light to destroy the DNA or RNA molecules in microbial cells, denaturing proteins and achieving a sterilizing effect. Its advantages are high efficiency, rapidity, broad-spectrum sterilization, and no secondary pollution to the environment. High-temperature disinfection uses high temperatures to kill microorganisms such as bacteria and viruses. Its advantages are ease of use and intuitive sterilization. Ozone disinfection utilizes the strong oxidizing properties of ozone to kill microorganisms, while plasma disinfection utilizes the active ingredients in plasma to kill microorganisms. These diverse disinfection methods have led to the development of maternal and infant sterilizers becoming more diverse, intelligent, and efficient. The continued development and application of these technologies will further enhance the performance and user experience of maternal and infant sterilizers, ensuring the hygiene and safety of infant products.
[0003] Existing maternal and infant sterilizers generally use an external circulation method, whereby a fan draws air in from the outside, heats it through a PTC, and then flows into the cavity to work, before exiting through an air outlet. This method cannot ensure uniform airflow circulation within the cavity, resulting in different temperatures and humidity levels at different locations within the cavity, affecting the overall sterilization effect. Furthermore, maternal and infant sterilizers primarily serve baby products, and their cabinets are relatively small. Therefore, the arrangement of the fan and air duct within the limited space is crucial. Furthermore, it is also necessary to ensure the independence of the fan control to prevent the air duct from occupying too much space. Implementing and optimizing the integrated design of the fan and air duct is a current challenge. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In response to the problems in the related technology, the present invention proposes a mother and baby disinfection cabinet with dual air ducts and internal and external circulation.

The first fan transports external air into the cabinet, while the second fan draws air from the cabinet into the internal circulation duct and recirculates it back into the cabinet. This creates a dual internal-external circulation airflow, improving the uniformity and stability of air circulation within the cabinet. This accelerated air flow also enhances dehumidification and drying efficiency. The dual internal-external circulation airflow can more effectively control internal temperature and humidity conditions, improving disinfection efficiency and effectiveness. The structural design of arranging the first fan, second fan, and internal circulation duct on one side of the cabinet optimizes internal space utilization and facilitates electrical control wiring. This design avoids the air duct from occupying excessive internal space, allowing more items to be sterilized and dried simultaneously. Optimizing space utilization is particularly important for small maternal and infant sterilizers, as it ensures maximum sterilization and drying capacity within a limited volume. The dual internal-external circulation duct design also helps reduce noise and energy consumption. By optimizing the air duct layout and air flow path, the operating noise and energy consumption of the fan can be reduced, greatly improving the performance of the disinfection cabinet and the user experience and comfort.
