Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of disinfection and drying technology for protective equipment, and in particular to a disinfection and drying device for protective equipment. Background Technology

[0002] High-voltage protective equipment, including insulating gloves and shoes, is widely used in industries involving high-voltage electricity, such as power plants, petrochemicals, metallurgy, and rail transportation. These gloves and shoes are essential for protecting the safety of personnel performing power outages and restorations during high-voltage equipment maintenance and repairs. Frequent use of these protective equipment is necessary during concentrated equipment maintenance. However, to ensure insulation, these gloves and shoes are designed to be non-breathable. This often leads to sweat residue that cannot evaporate, especially in hot summer conditions. Accumulated sweat can cause discomfort and hinder normal work, and it can also breed bacteria and viruses, harming the skin. Furthermore, prolonged sweat retention can damage the insulating equipment, reducing its insulation and potentially posing a work hazard. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a device that can quickly dry and disinfect used high-voltage protective equipment to ensure worker comfort and safety. Utility Model Content

[0028] This utility model proposes a disinfection and drying device for protective equipment.

[0029] Reference Figure 1In one embodiment of this utility model, the disinfection and drying device for protective equipment 10 includes: a housing 1, a ventilation assembly 3, a support 4, an air dryer 5, an ozone generator 6, and a controller 7. The housing 1 provides a space for the entire device. The front wall of the housing 1 has an opening, and a movable door 2 is provided at the opening. The movable door 2 is installed at the opening on the front wall of the housing 1 via a hinge. In some other embodiments, the movable door 2 can also be installed on the housing 1 via a hinge, as long as the function of opening and closing the movable door 2 relative to the housing 1 can be realized. The specific connection method between the movable door 2 and the housing 1 is not limited here. In this embodiment, the housing 1 is an iron housing 1, which has a certain degree of durability and airtightness, ensuring that the internal airflow circulates within the housing 1. In some other embodiments, the housing 1 can also be a metal housing 1 such as a stainless steel housing 1 or an aluminum alloy housing 1, or a non-metallic housing 1 such as an engineering plastic housing 1 or a fiberglass housing 1. Among them, the engineering plastic can be an engineering plastic such as polypropylene (PP) or polycarbonate (PC). The ventilation assembly 3 is installed on the bottom wall of the housing 1, and the internal space of the housing 1 is connected to the outside through the ventilation assembly 3; the bracket 4 is installed on the inner bottom wall of the housing 1; the air dryer 5 and the ozone generator 6 are both installed inside the housing 1 and are both connected to the housing 1; the controller 7 is installed inside the housing 1 and is electrically connected to the ventilation assembly 3, the air dryer 5 and the ozone generator 6 respectively.

[0030] Reference Figure 1 In one embodiment, the ventilation assembly 3 includes multiple ventilation fans 31. Ventilation holes 32 are provided on the bottom wall of the housing 1, and the internal space of the housing 1 is connected to the outside through the ventilation holes 32. The ventilation fans 31 are located within the ventilation holes 32 and fixed to the bottom wall of the housing 1 with bolts. The number of ventilation holes 32 corresponds to the number of ventilation fans 31. In this embodiment, there are 8 ventilation fans 31, and the number of ventilation holes 32 also corresponds to 8 ventilation fans 31. In other embodiments, the number of ventilation fans 31 can be increased or decreased according to actual needs. No limitation is placed on the number of ventilation fans 31 or ventilation holes 32. In other embodiments, the ventilation fans 31 can also be installed in the ventilation holes 32 by snap-fit, as long as the ventilation fans 31 can be stably installed in the ventilation holes 32. No limitation is placed on the specific connection method between the ventilation fans 31 and the ventilation holes 32. In this embodiment, the ventilation fans 31 are flat fans, which can ensure airflow while saving space and facilitating installation.

[0031] Reference Figure 1In one embodiment, the bracket 4 includes at least two support rods 41. In this embodiment, there are four support rods 41, and they are made of PVC plastic. The surface of the PVC plastic support rods 41 is polished to prevent damage to protective equipment such as insulating gloves 11 and insulating shoes 12. When the insulating gloves 11 or insulating shoes 12 are placed on the support rods 41, the support rods 41 can open the openings of the insulating gloves 11 and insulating shoes 12, allowing dry air to quickly enter the insulating gloves 11 and insulating shoes 12 to evaporate sweat quickly. At the same time, ozone molecules can also enter the insulating gloves 11 and insulating shoes 12 to disinfect them. In other embodiments, the number of support rods 41 can be increased or decreased according to actual needs. The number of support rods 41 is not limited here. One end of the support rod 41 is connected to the inner bottom wall of the box 1 by a threaded connection. In some other embodiments, one end of the support rod 41 can also be fixed to the inner bottom wall of the box 1 by welding. As long as the support rod 41 can be stably connected to the inner bottom wall of the box 1 to provide support for the protective equipment 10, the specific connection method between the support rod 41 and the inner bottom wall of the box 1 is not limited here.

[0032] Reference Figure 1In one embodiment, an air dryer 5, an ozone generator 6, an air humidity sensor 8, and a controller 7 are bolted to the inner wall of the housing 1. In other embodiments, the air dryer 5, ozone generator 6, air humidity sensor 8, and controller 7 can also be fixed inside the housing 1 by means of slots, as long as they can be securely installed inside the housing 1. The specific connection method between the air dryer 5, ozone generator 6, air humidity sensor 8, and controller 7 and the housing 1 is not limited here. In this embodiment, the air dryer 5 is a condenser dryer, used to remove moisture from the circulating air inside the housing 1. This dryer has a drain valve, allowing the condensate generated during the drying process to be discharged outside the housing 1. The controller 7 is electrically connected to the ventilation fan 31, the air dryer 5, and the ozone generator 6 via wires. The controller 7 is also electrically connected to the air humidity sensor 8 via a data transmission line, allowing communication between the controller 7 and the air humidity sensor. An air humidity sensor 8 is used to detect the dryness of the circulating air inside the housing 1, with a detection range of 0%-100%RH. The air humidity threshold can be freely set according to actual needs, and the air humidity sensor can send an analog electrical signal to the controller 7 based on the threshold. When the ozone generator 6 is working, it releases ozone molecules at a concentration of 5 to 10 mg / m³, which are then carried by the circulating airflow into the insulating gloves 11 and insulating shoes 12 for disinfection. In this embodiment, the controller 7 uses a PLC control board with 8 channels of analog input and 6 channels of analog output. A self-reset switch 9 is installed on the outer surface of the housing 1, and is electrically connected to the controller 7 via a wire. In this embodiment, a power module 13 is bolted to the inner wall of the housing 1. This power module 13 is an AC-to-DC power module, receiving an AC 220V input and outputting a DC 24V output to provide power to the controller 7, ventilation fan 31, condenser dryer, ozone generator 6, and air humidity sensor 8.

[0033] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: After the workers place the used insulating gloves 11 and insulating shoes 12, and other protective equipment 10, into the housing 1 and place them on the support 4, the support rod 41 opens the wearing openings of the insulating gloves 11 and insulating shoes 12. When the device is working, close the movable door 2, press the switch 9, and the controller 7 sends a command signal to start the ventilation fan 31 to blow air into the housing 1. At the same time, the ozone generator 6 and the air dryer 5 are started. One minute after startup, the air humidity sensor 8 begins to detect the humidity of the circulating airflow inside the housing 1. The internal circulating airflow passes through the air dryer 5 for drying, and the ozone molecules emitted by the ozone generator 6 enter the protective equipment 10 with the circulating airflow for disinfection. When the air humidity sensor 8 detects that the air humidity has reached below 30%RH, it sends a command signal to the controller 7. The controller 7 sends a command signal to stop the ozone generator 6 from working, while the ventilation fan 31 continues to work to disperse the ozone molecules. One minute later, the ventilation fan 31 and the air dryer 5 stop working, completing the drying and disinfection process.

[0034] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. All equivalent structural transformations made under the inventive concept of the present utility model using the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
