[0004] Furthermore, existing devices often lack effective light focusing and reflection designs, leading to UV scattering within the chamber and further reducing sterilization efficiency. If the UV light emitted cannot be concentrated on key areas of the water, the desired sterilization effect cannot be achieved. Summary of the Invention

[0029] All features disclosed in this specification, or steps in all methods or processes disclosed herein, may be combined in any way, except for mutually exclusive features and / or steps.

[0030] like Figs. 1-2 As shown, this utility model provides a novel self-generating ultraviolet sterilization device, which realizes water flow-driven self-generating power generation and ultraviolet sterilization functions through components such as a shell, a built-in self-generating mechanism, an ultraviolet sterilization mechanism, and a reflective film 7.

[0031] The following is a detailed implementation of this embodiment, describing in detail the structure and function of each component to ensure that the expected effects of the present invention are achieved.

[0032] The housing of this invention is made of durable material and designed as a tubular structure of a certain length. One end of the housing is the water inlet, and the other end is the water outlet. The water inlet is connected to an external water source via a tap, and the water flows through the water inlet into the device, driving the turbine blades in the self-generating mechanism to rotate.

[0033] To ensure smooth water flow, a universal adapter 1 is installed at the water inlet to accommodate different water sources. A waterproof filter screen 2 is installed on the inner side of the universal adapter 1 to filter impurities in the water and prevent them from entering the device and affecting its operation.

[0034] Universal adapter 1 is connected to the housing by threads to ensure a secure connection and prevent water leakage.

[0035] The water outlet end of the housing is provided with a water outlet 11, and a water saver 9 is installed inside the water outlet 11, which aims to reduce water waste by optimizing water flow.

[0036] A second O-ring 10 is provided at the connection between the water outlet 11 and the housing to prevent water leakage and to ensure the stability and sealing of the water flow.

[0037] One of the core components of the device is the self-generating mechanism, located inside the casing. The self-generating mechanism converts the power of the water flow into electrical energy through the rotation of turbine blades.

[0038] The self-generating mechanism's drive end faces the water inlet of the casing, relying on the water pressure to drive the turbine blades to rotate, thus providing kinetic energy to the generator 5. The generator 5's power output is rectified by a rectifier module, stably supplying the output power to the ultraviolet sterilization mechanism, providing it with the necessary power support. This self-generating function requires no external power source, relying entirely on water flow to generate electricity, thus facilitating energy conservation.

[0039] The ultraviolet (UV) sterilization mechanism is located at the outer end of the self-generating mechanism, and its function is to generate UV light for sterilization. The UV sterilization mechanism includes multiple UVC lamp beads 12, which effectively kill bacteria and viruses in the water by irradiating the water flow with UV light, ensuring water quality safety.

[0040] The generator 5 is connected to the ultraviolet sterilization mechanism via its power output terminal, supplying it with the required electrical energy. In this embodiment, the ultraviolet sterilization mechanism consists of multiple UVC lamp beads 12, which are installed on the outer side of the generator 5 to ensure uniform distribution of ultraviolet light, thereby enhancing the water flow sterilization effect.

[0041] To enhance the sterilization effect of ultraviolet light, a reflective membrane 7 is installed inside the device. The reflective membrane 7 is located on the inner wall of the housing and works in conjunction with the ultraviolet sterilization mechanism. The function of the reflective membrane 7 is to reflect the ultraviolet sterilization light back to the water inlet, ensuring that the ultraviolet light covers the entire path of the water flow and improving the efficiency of ultraviolet sterilization. At least two sealing layers are provided between the reflective membrane 7 and the ultraviolet sterilization mechanism. These sealing layers are made of quartz glass, including a first quartz glass sleeve 4 and a second quartz glass sleeve 6.

[0042] The first quartz glass sleeve 4 is used to seal the generator 5, preventing moisture and impurities from entering the electrical components and ensuring the long-term stable operation of the equipment. The second quartz glass sleeve 6 is installed on the outer wall of the reflective film 7 and is attached to the reflective film 7. The second quartz glass sleeve 6 seals the reflective film 7, thereby enhancing the ultraviolet reflection effect.

[0043] To ensure a good seal, O-rings are installed at the top and bottom of generator 5. The first O-ring is installed on the top and bottom of generator 5 respectively to ensure a good seal.

[0044] The first quartz glass sleeve 4 is located outside the two O-ring seals, further enhancing the sealing performance of the equipment, preventing moisture from penetrating into the electrical components, and extending its service life.

[0045] The bottom of generator 5 is threaded to the inner thread of the housing via an external thread, ensuring a stable installation of generator 5 and facilitating future maintenance and replacement. This threaded connection method facilitates inspection and maintenance of the device, improving the ease of use of the equipment.

[0046] This invention has good water tightness and electrical safety, and at the same time, it avoids dependence on external power supply by using a self-generating generator, thus reducing energy consumption.

[0047] The combination of ultraviolet sterilization and water flow dynamics ensures the equipment's high efficiency and energy saving. Due to its compact structure and simple operation, the device is particularly suitable for water treatment and sterilization applications in homes or public places.

[0048] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions conceived without inventive effort should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the scope defined in the claims.
