Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tableware disinfection, and more specifically, to an intelligent temperature-controlled tableware disinfection station. Background Technology

[0002] As people's health awareness gradually develops, concepts such as green, environmental protection, and health are gaining more and more recognition. In order to prevent diseases from entering through the mouth, people have higher requirements for the hygiene of tableware. In particular, if pathogenic microorganisms remaining on tableware are not thoroughly disinfected, people using these tableware are very likely to be infected with diseases.

[0003] A search revealed that Chinese Patent Publication No. CN216652927U discloses "a tableware disinfection device, comprising: a cabinet, a cabinet door, a placement rack, a partition, a support block, an electric push rod, a rotary motor, a connecting frame, and a controller. Tableware is placed on the placement rack, the cabinet door is closed, and the controller controls the electric push rod to pass the connecting frame through a perforation. A first arc-shaped cover and a second arc-shaped cover are located on the upper and lower sides of the placement rack, respectively. Ultraviolet light sources on the inner surfaces of the first and second arc-shaped covers irradiate the tableware. The controller controls the rotary motor to rotate the first and second arc-shaped covers around the placement rack, irradiating the tableware from all directions. This solves the technical problem in existing tableware disinfection devices where ultraviolet light cannot completely irradiate the tableware, resulting in incomplete disinfection." However, the following defects still exist:

[0004] While the device allows for adjustment of the tableware's position during use, multiple pieces of tableware typically need to be stacked or pressed together for disinfection. Disinfection relying solely on ultraviolet light cannot reach shaded areas (such as the bottom of bowls and gaps between chopsticks) where tableware is stacked, resulting in a limited and inefficient disinfection method. Therefore, an intelligent temperature-controlled tableware disinfection station is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to address the current practice that, when disinfecting tableware, multiple pieces of tableware usually need to be stacked or placed together. Disinfection can only be carried out by ultraviolet light, which cannot disinfect the shaded areas (such as the bottom of the bowl and the gaps between the chopsticks) when the tableware is stacked. The disinfection method is relatively simple and inefficient.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0007] The present invention is as follows: an intelligent temperature-controlled tableware disinfection station, including a frame, a disinfection mechanism for real-time temperature control inside the frame is provided on one side of the frame, and a circulation component for improving the flow of hot air inside the frame is provided on one side of the disinfection mechanism.

[0008] The disinfection mechanism includes a fan bolted to the top of the frame. A heating tube is installed at the output end of the fan, and a resistance wire is installed on the inner wall of the heating tube. A three-way pipe is connected to the end of the heating tube away from the fan. A fixed frame is fixedly connected to the inner bottom wall of the frame. Four air outlets are opened through the interior of the fixed frame. Mounting plates are fixedly connected to the inner walls of opposite sides of the frame. Two guide rails are fixedly connected to the opposite side of the two mounting plates. Placement frames are slidably connected to the inner walls of the guide rails. Quartz ultraviolet lamps are fixedly installed on the opposite side of the two mounting plates. A temperature sensor is installed on the inner wall of the frame. A controller is fixedly installed on the top of the frame.

[0009] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the circulation component includes a support frame fixedly connected between two mounting plates. Two first ventilation fans are provided on one side of the support frame. Exhaust pipes are connected to both opposite sides of the support frame. The ends of the two exhaust pipes away from the support frame extend into the interior of the fixed frame. Second ventilation fans are provided on the inner walls of the four air outlets. A control panel is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the frame. The first ventilation fans, second ventilation fans and control panel are all electrically connected to the controller.

[0010] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, a discharge pipe is provided at the top of the frame, a solenoid valve is provided on the inner wall of the discharge pipe, and a pressure sensor is provided on the side of the frame near the temperature sensor. Both the solenoid valve and the pressure sensor are electrically connected to the controller.

[0011] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, a plurality of support rods are fixedly connected to the top of the fixed frame, and a V-shaped plate is fixedly connected to the top of the support rods.

[0012] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the top of the frame is threadedly connected to a protective frame, and the interior of the protective frame is provided with multiple ventilation holes, and the fan and controller are both located inside the protective frame.

[0013] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the frame has two door panels hinged to one side with an opening, and a sealing gasket is provided on one side of each of the two door panels.

[0014] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, two quartz high-temperature lamps are fixedly installed on the inner top wall of the frame, and the quartz high-temperature lamps are electrically connected to the control panel.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0016] 1. The disinfection mechanism enables the simultaneous disinfection of tableware using both high temperature and ultraviolet light. A fan blows the heat generated by the resistance wire into the frame, causing the hot air to flow from low to high within the frame, evenly disinfecting the tableware stacked in the frame. During this process, a temperature sensor monitors the temperature inside the frame in real time, and the controller adjusts the heating level of the resistance wire and the blowing force of the fan. After high-temperature disinfection, the tableware can be irradiated with ultraviolet light using a quartz ultraviolet lamp to improve the disinfection effect.

[0017] 2. The circulation component enables the circulation of hot air inside the frame. Activating the second ventilation fan evenly blows the hot air entering the fixed frame into the frame. The hot air flows from low to high inside the frame. Activating the first ventilation fan blows the hot air flowing upward into the support frame and back into the fixed frame through the exhaust pipe, completing the circulation of hot air inside the frame and preventing the hot air from staying at a high level, which would result in insufficient temperature for the lower tableware.

[0026] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features and technical solutions in the present invention can be combined with each other.

[0027] It should be noted that similar labels and letters in the following figures indicate similar items. Therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.

[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment proposes an intelligent temperature-controlled tableware disinfection station, including a frame 1. A disinfection mechanism 2 for real-time temperature control inside the frame 1 is provided on one side of the frame 1, and a circulation component 3 for improving the flow of hot air inside the frame 1 is provided on one side of the disinfection mechanism 2.

[0029] like Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the disinfection mechanism 2 includes a fan 201 bolted to the top of the frame 1. A heating tube 202 is installed at the output end of the fan 201. A resistance wire 203 is installed on the inner wall of the heating tube 202. A three-way pipe 204 is connected to the end of the heating tube 202 away from the fan 201. A fixed frame 205 is fixedly connected to the inner bottom wall of the frame 1. Both ends of the three-way pipe 204 away from the heating tube 202 extend into the interior of the fixed frame 205. Four air outlets 206 are opened through the interior of the fixed frame 205. By energizing the resistance wire 203, the fan 201 can blow hot air into the fixed frame 205 and into the interior of the frame 1 through the air outlets 206. Mounting plates 20 are fixedly connected to the inner walls of opposite sides of the frame 1. 7. Two guide rails 208 are fixedly connected to opposite sides of the two mounting plates 207. A placement frame 209 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the guide rails 208. Multiple tableware can be placed and disinfected through the guide rails 208 and the placement frame 209. Quartz ultraviolet lamps 210 are fixedly installed on opposite sides of the two mounting plates 207. The quartz ultraviolet lamps 210 can increase the disinfection method and improve the disinfection effect. A temperature sensor 211 is set on the inner wall of the frame 1. A controller 212 is fixedly installed on the top of the frame 1. The temperature sensor 211 and the controller 212 can accurately control the temperature inside the frame 1. The fan 201, the resistance wire 203 and the temperature sensor 211 are all electrically connected to the controller 212. The tableware to be disinfected is stacked in the placement frame 209, and the placement frame 209 is slid into the frame 1 via the guide rail 208. During disinfection, the resistance wire 203 is connected to an external power source to generate heat. The fan 201 is connected to an external power source and started, and the heat generated by the resistance wire 203 is blown into the fixed frame 205 through the heating tube 202 and the three-way pipe 204. The hot air is then blown into the frame 1 through the air outlet 206. During this process, the hot air flows from the lower to the higher parts of the frame 1, which can make the tableware at the lower levels more disinfected. The system is designed for high-temperature sterilization. At the same time, the temperature sensor 211 can monitor the temperature inside the frame 1 in real time and transmit the signal to the controller 212. The controller 212 can control the heating level of the resistance wire 203 and the blowing force of the fan 201, so as to adjust the temperature inside the frame 1 in a timely manner. After high-temperature sterilization, the quartz ultraviolet lamp 210 can be turned on to irradiate the tableware in the placement frame 209 with ultraviolet light. The quartz ultraviolet lamp 210 has excellent heat resistance and can be turned on while sterilizing at high temperature to improve the sterilization effect.

[0030] like Figure 4As shown, the circulation component 3 includes a support frame 301 fixedly connected between two mounting plates 207. Two first ventilation fans 302 are provided on one side of the support frame 301. Exhaust pipes 303 are connected to both opposite sides of the support frame 301. The ends of the two exhaust pipes 303 away from the support frame 301 extend into the interior of the fixed frame 205. The support frame 301, the first ventilation fans 302 and the exhaust pipes 303 can make the hot air in the frame 1 flow. The inner walls of the four air outlets 206 are provided with second ventilation fans 304. The second ventilation fans 304 can blow the hot air in the fixed frame 205 evenly. A control panel 305 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the frame 1. The first ventilation fans 302, the second ventilation fans 304 and the control panel 305 are all electrically connected to the controller 212. In use, the user can start the second ventilation fan 304 through the external control panel 305 of the frame 1 to blow the hot air that enters the fixed frame 205 evenly into the interior of the frame 1. Starting the second ventilation fan 304 can blow the hot air blown to the high place inside the frame 1 into the support frame 301, and then return to the fixed frame 205 through the exhaust pipe 303, so that the hot air inside the frame 1 is circulated and a large amount of hot air is prevented from staying at the high place inside the frame 1.

[0031] like Figure 3 As shown, a discharge pipe 4 is connected to the top of the frame 1, and a solenoid valve 5 is installed on the inner wall of the discharge pipe 4. A pressure sensor 6 is installed on the side of the frame 1 near the temperature sensor 211. Both the solenoid valve 5 and the pressure sensor 6 are electrically connected to the controller 212. The pressure sensor 6 can monitor the pressure inside the frame 1 in real time. When the pressure increases due to the continuous increase of hot air, the pressure sensor 6 will transmit a signal to the controller 212. The controller 212 will then control the solenoid valve 5 to open, allowing the hot air inside the frame 1 to be discharged from the frame 1 through the discharge pipe 4 as it flows upward.

[0032] like Figure 5 As shown, multiple support rods 7 are fixedly connected to the top of the fixed frame 205, and a V-shaped plate 8 is fixedly connected to the top of the support rods 7. Before disinfection, some water stains may remain on the tableware in the placement frame 209. The support rods 7 and the V-shaped plate 8 work together to block the water stains and prevent them from damaging the second ventilation fan 304.

[0033] like Figure 4 As shown, a protective frame 9 is threadedly connected to the top of the frame 1. Multiple ventilation holes 10 are provided through the interior of the protective frame 9. The fan 201 and the controller 212 are both located inside the protective frame 9. The protective frame 9 can protect the fan 201 and the controller 212, and the ventilation holes 10 can maintain the normal operation of the fan 201 and dissipate heat.

[0034] like Figure 1As shown, two door panels 11 are hinged to one side of the frame 1 with an opening, and a sealing gasket 12 is provided on one side of each door panel 11. The door panels 11 and the sealing gaskets 12 work together to prevent hot air from escaping from the frame 1.

[0035] like Figure 3 As shown, two quartz high-temperature lamps 13 are fixedly installed on the inner top wall of the frame 1, and the quartz high-temperature lamps 13 are electrically connected to the control panel 305. The quartz high-temperature lamps 13 have excellent heat resistance and can be used in high-temperature environments. The user turns the quartz high-temperature lamps 13 on or off through the control panel 305 to illuminate the inside of the frame 1, making it convenient for use in dim environments.

[0036] Specifically, when using this intelligent temperature-controlled tableware sterilization station: stack the tableware to be sterilized into the placement frame 209, and slide the placement frame 209 into the frame 1 via the guide rail 208. During sterilization, connect the resistance wire 203 to an external power source to dissipate heat. Connect the fan 201 to an external power source and start it, blowing the heat generated by the resistance wire 203 into the fixed frame 205 through the heating tube 202 and the three-way pipe 204 (e.g., Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown); the user can activate the second ventilation fan 304 via the external control panel 305 of the frame 1, which evenly blows the hot air entering the fixed frame 205 into the interior of the frame 1. Activating the second ventilation fan 304 can blow the hot air blown towards the higher parts of the frame 1 into the support frame 301, and then return to the fixed frame 205 through the exhaust pipe 303, thus circulating the hot air inside the frame 1 (e.g., Figure 4 (As shown); temperature sensor 211 can monitor the temperature inside the frame 1 in real time and transmit the signal to controller 212. Controller 212 can control the heating level of resistance wire 203 and the blowing force of fan 201, so as to adjust the temperature inside the frame 1 in a timely manner. After high-temperature disinfection, quartz ultraviolet lamp 210 can be turned on to irradiate the tableware in the placement frame 209 with ultraviolet light. Quartz ultraviolet lamp 210 has excellent heat resistance and can be turned on while disinfecting at high temperature to improve the disinfection effect (e.g., Figure 3 (As shown); pressure sensor 6 can monitor the pressure inside the frame 1 in real time and transmit the signal to controller 212. Controller 212 will control solenoid valve 5 to open, allowing the hot air inside the frame 1 to be discharged from the frame 1 through discharge pipe 4 as it flows upward (as shown). Figure 3 (As shown); the support rod 7 and the V-shaped plate 8 work together to block water stains remaining in the tableware, preventing water stains from dripping from the placement frame 209 and damaging the second ventilation fan 304 (as shown). Figure 5 (As shown).

[0037] All technical features in this embodiment can be freely combined according to actual needs.

[0038] The above embodiments are preferred implementations of this utility model. In addition, this utility model can also be implemented in other ways. Any obvious substitutions without departing from the concept of this technical solution are within the protection scope of this utility model.
