[0002] An air compressor is a device that compresses air into high-pressure gas and is widely used in many industrial fields. However, existing air compressors are prone to the growth of bacteria and microorganisms during long-term use, which can easily cause cross-contamination when used in food manufacturing, medical industry or high-precision electronic component production, making it impossible to guarantee product safety.

[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, this application discloses an air compressor with a disinfection function. Utility Model Content

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0020] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "opening", "upper", "lower", "thickness", "top", "middle", "length", "inner", "around" and other terms indicating orientation or positional relationship are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the components or elements referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.

[0021] Example

[0022] Traditional air compressors are prone to bacterial and microbial growth in the following situations;

[0023] First, compressed air produces a large amount of condensate during the cooling process. Although the traditional air tank 11 is equipped with a manual drain valve, if the drain is not timely, the humidity inside the air tank 11 will increase, creating conditions for the growth of microorganisms (including bacteria, mold, etc.).

[0024] Second, traditional filters 23 (such as 5μm particulate filters 23) can only intercept large particulate pollutants, and their removal effect on microorganisms (bacteria are usually 0.2-5μm) is not ideal. At the same time, due to the lack of sterilization function, filters 23 can only physically intercept and cannot kill microorganisms, and may even become a source of pollution after long-term use.

[0025] Third, traditional gas storage tanks are mostly made of carbon steel, which is prone to rust on the inner wall. Rust residue mixed with biofilm will accelerate the growth of microorganisms.

[0026] Fourth, in terms of system structure, there are many blind spots, such as weld seams and flange connections. These areas are prone to retaining moisture and dirt, forming a biofilm that is difficult to remove completely with conventional cleaning. The air compressor may draw in microorganisms such as bacteria, fungal spores, and viruses from the surrounding environment (especially in humid environments or heavily polluted areas around the factory). If the intake filter 23 is not properly maintained (such as being clogged or damaged), microorganisms will directly enter the system.

[0027] Fifth, for oil-lubricated air compressors, the lubricating oil oxidizes at high temperatures to form oil mist, which, when mixed with moisture, becomes a nutrient source for microorganisms. When the system is shut down for a long period of time, the residual moisture and organic matter will promote the rapid reproduction of microorganisms (such as Legionella, Pseudomonas, etc.). Finally, downstream air-using equipment (such as spray guns, pneumatic tools, etc.) may introduce contaminants in reverse, threatening the cleanliness of the entire system.

[0028] To ensure product safety and prevent cross-contamination when using air compressors in food manufacturing, medical industries, or high-precision electronic component production, please refer to... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this application discloses an air compressor with a disinfection function, including an air compressor body 10, and a disinfection structure 20 for air intake disinfection is installed on the pump head of the air compressor body 10.

[0029] The disinfection structure 20 includes an ozone generator 21, a venturi jet injector 22, and at least one filter 23. The ozone generator 21 is fixed to the air storage tank 11 of the air compressor body 10 to generate ozone. The venturi jet injector 22 is connected to the ozone generator 21 to mix the gas and exchange energy. Specifically, the ozone generator is connected to the venturi jet injector 22 through an ozone connecting pipe 24, and the venturi jet injector 22 is connected to the cylinder 12 of the pump head of the air compressor body 10. As prior art, the pump head of the air compressor body 10 of this application has two cylinders 12. In addition, the venturi jet injector 22 is connected to the two cylinders 12 respectively through two air inlet connecting pipes 25. At least one filter 23 is installed at the end of the venturi jet injector 22 to filter the air.

[0030] Based on the above structure, in specific implementation, the air compressor is started, and the Venturi jet 22 and ozone generator 21 are put into operation simultaneously. The ozone generator 21 continuously produces ozone. After being filtered by the filter 23, the external air enters the Venturi jet 22 and converts pressure energy into velocity energy, forming a vacuum state in the nozzle outlet area, thereby attracting the ozone generated in the corona discharge area. Subsequently, the air and ozone are fully mixed and exchange energy in the Venturi jet 22, and the velocity energy is reduced to pressure energy. Finally, the air enters the air storage tank 11 to perform microbial disinfection and purify the air.

[0031] In one specific embodiment, the ozone generator 21 of this application is provided with a mounting bracket 211 at the bottom. The mounting bracket 211 is fixed above the air compressor storage tank 11, so that the ozone generator 21 can be installed with the air compressor storage tank 11. In a preferred embodiment, the mounting bracket 211 can be fixed to the air compressor storage tank 11 by bolts.

[0032] In order to ensure that the gas enters the Venturi jet 22 quickly, this application provides filters 23 at both ends of the Venturi jet 22. In specific implementation, the outside air enters the Venturi jet 22 together after being filtered by these two filters 23.

[0033] In a preferred embodiment, the present application has an air inlet pipe 26 with the inlet facing the air inlet end of the filter 23. When the air compressor is started, external gas will enter the Venturi jet 22 through the air inlet pipe 26. When the air compressor is not started, the air inlet pipe 26 faces downward to prevent dust or external impurities from entering.

[0034] It should be noted that the structures of the ozone generator 21, venturi jet generator 22 and filter 23 involved in this application are all known technologies and can be obtained directly from the market, so they will not be described in detail here.

Furthermore, the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments or examples.
