Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of disinfection equipment technology, and in particular to a baffle structure and a disinfection machine. Background Technology

[0002] As living standards continue to improve, people have higher and higher requirements for the hygiene of tableware. Kitchen utensils such as cutting boards and knives are often damp after use and washing. These damp utensils are usually placed in places in the kitchen that are not sunny or well-ventilated. Due to the influence of damp weather such as rain, they are prone to mold and bacteria growth, which can harm people's health.

[0003] Therefore, after washing, kitchen utensils such as cutting boards and knives can be placed in a cutting board sterilizer, where hot air sterilization removes bacteria and residual moisture, reducing the likelihood of mold and bacterial growth. However, due to the abundance of oil fumes and insects in the kitchen, the filter of the cutting board sterilizer can easily become clogged with grease or insects, affecting its sterilization effect. Utility Model Content

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a baffle structure and a sterilizer to address the problem that the filter of a cutting board sterilizer is easily clogged by grease or insects, affecting the sterilization effect on the cutting board.

[0005] A baffle structure for a sterilizer, comprising:

[0006] A baffle shell is installed on the outer shell of the sterilizer. The baffle shell and the outer shell of the sterilizer form an air inlet cavity.

[0040] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this application more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a thorough understanding of this application. However, this application can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of this application. Therefore, this application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0041] In the description of this application, it should be understood that if terms such as "center", "longitudinal", "lateral", "length", "width", "thickness", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", "axial", "radial", "circumferential" appear, these terms indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element 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 application.

[0042] Furthermore, where the terms "first" and "second" appear, these terms are for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of that feature. In the description of this application, where the term "multiple" appears, "multiple" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0043] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "joining," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components, unless otherwise expressly limited. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.

[0044] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the use of descriptions such as "above" or "below" the second feature indicates that the first and second features are in direct contact or indirect contact via an intermediate medium. Furthermore, "above," "on top of," and "over" the second feature can mean that the first feature is directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature. Similarly, "below," "below," and "under" the second feature can mean that the first feature is directly below or diagonally below the second feature, or simply that the first feature is at a lower horizontal level than the second feature.

[0045] It should be noted that if an element is referred to as being "fixed to" or "set on" another element, it can be directly on the other element or there may be an intervening element. If an element is considered to be "connected to" another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intervening element. If so, the terms "vertical," "horizontal," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," and similar expressions used in this application are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the only possible implementation.

[0046] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The sterilizer provided in one embodiment of this application includes a housing 30, a fan 31, a drying duct 32, a heating element, and a baffle structure 10. The housing 30 contains a drying chamber 34, where items requiring drying and sterilization, such as kitchen utensils like knives, cutting boards, and bowls, can be placed. The air outlet 33 of the fan 31 is connected to the drying chamber 34 via the drying duct 32. The heating element is located within the drying duct 32. Thus, the airflow from the fan 31 through the outlet 33 passes through the heating element, and the resulting hot air is blown into the drying chamber 34, thereby drying and sterilizing the items within the drying chamber 34.

[0047] In order to enable the fan 31 to draw air from the air around the detoxifier to form an airflow, a fan port 40 is provided on the outer surface of the casing 30. The exhaust port 41 of the fan 31 is connected to the fan port 40 so that the exhaust port 41 of the fan 31 can draw in external air through the fan port 40 and output airflow from the exhaust port 33 of the fan 31.

[0048] In actual use, to prevent debris from entering the exhaust port 41 of the fan 31, a filter screen is usually installed at the fan port 40. When the sterilizer is used to sterilize kitchen utensils, it is usually placed in the kitchen. Because kitchens have a lot of oil fumes and insects, to prevent the filter screen from being clogged by grease or insects and affecting the airflow output of the fan 31, please refer to [reference needed]. Figure 4 and Figure 5 A baffle structure 10 is also provided at the fan outlet 40. The fan outlet 40 is opened and closed by the baffle structure 10, so that the fan outlet 40 is closed when the sterilizer is not working, thus avoiding the clogging of the filter screen at the fan outlet 40.

[0049] Specifically, the baffle structure 10 includes a baffle housing 11 and a baffle assembly 20. The baffle housing 11 is installed on the outer casing 30 of the sterilizer. Preferably, the baffle housing 11 can be installed at the bottom of the outer casing 30, so that the baffle structure 10 does not increase the volume of the sterilizer and avoids increasing the space occupied by the sterilizer. The baffle housing 11 installed on the outer casing 30 and the outer casing 30 together form an air inlet cavity 12, and an air inlet 13 communicating with the air inlet cavity 12 is also opened on the outer surface of the baffle housing 11. The fan port 40 on the outer casing 30 is connected to the air inlet cavity 12.

[0050] Thus, the fan 31 of the sterilizer can be connected to the air inlet chamber 12, so that the suction force generated by the fan 31 acts on the air inlet chamber 12. External air enters the air inlet chamber 12 through the air inlet 13, and then enters the air outlet 41 of the fan 31 through the fan outlet 40, and finally the airflow is output through the air outlet 33 of the fan 31. The baffle assembly 20 is movably installed in the air inlet chamber 12, and can open or close the air inlet 13 during the movement. Thus, when the sterilizer does not need to sterilize, the air inlet 13 is closed by the baffle assembly 20, so that external mosquitoes or grease cannot enter the filter of the sterilizer, thereby reducing the possibility of the filter being blocked by mosquitoes or grease, ensuring the normal use of the sterilizer, and improving the user experience.

[0051] It should be noted that the filter of the sterilizer can be installed at the fan outlet 40 or directly at the exhaust outlet 41. As long as the air inlet 13 is closed, the filter installed at either the exhaust outlet 41 or the fan outlet 40 can be isolated from the outside, thus protecting the filter and preventing it from escaping. Alternatively, the fan 31 can bypass the fan outlet 40 and directly install the exhaust outlet 41 inside the air inlet chamber 12, thereby connecting the exhaust outlet 41 and the air inlet chamber 12.

[0052] In some embodiments of this application, the baffle assembly 20 includes at least two baffle bodies 21, all of which are movably installed within the air inlet cavity 12, and all baffle bodies 21 can be controllably spliced ​​together or separated. When all baffle bodies 21 approach each other, they abut against each other, and the area of ​​the component formed by the splicing of all baffle bodies 21 is larger than the air inlet 13, thus closing the air inlet 13 when all baffle bodies 21 are spliced ​​together. When the baffle bodies 21 move away from each other, there is a gap between them, thereby opening the air inlet 13.

[0053] In some embodiments, see Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 The baffle assembly 20 includes two baffle bodies 21. Each baffle body 21 is rotatable about a rotation axis Y. The two rotation axes Y corresponding to the two baffle bodies 21 are arranged at intervals along the first direction X, and the two rotation axes Y are arranged parallel to each other. The direction of each rotation axis Y is parallel to the axial direction of the air inlet 13, and the first direction X intersects the direction of the rotation axis Y.

[0054] During the rotation of the two baffle bodies 21 around their respective rotation axes Y, the two baffle bodies 21 can be spliced ​​together or separated. When the two baffle bodies 21 approach each other and splice together, the area of ​​the component formed by the splicing of the two baffle bodies 21 is larger than the air inlet 13, so that the two baffle assemblies 20 cover the air inlet 13, thereby closing the air inlet 13. When the two baffle bodies 21 move away from each other, a gap is formed between the two baffle bodies 21, thereby opening the air inlet 13.

[0055] Each baffle body 21 includes a blocking portion 27 and a connecting portion 26. One end of the connecting portion 26 is connected to the blocking portion 27, and the other end is rotatable around the rotation axis Y. During the rotation of their respective connecting portions 26, the blocking portions 27 of the two baffle bodies 21 can be joined or separated. Each blocking portion 27 is semi-circular. The two blocking portions 27 can rotate to both sides via the two connecting portions 26 to perform a clamping opening and closing motion. When the two blocking portions 27 are joined, they form a complete circle with an area larger than the area of ​​the air inlet 13, thus closing the air inlet 13. When the two blocking portions 27 are separated, the gap between them opens the air inlet 13, allowing communication between the air inlet 13 and the air inlet cavity 12.

[0056] In some specific embodiments, when the two shielding parts 27 are spliced ​​together, the two baffle bodies 21 are located between the fan opening 40 and the air inlet 13, and all the baffle bodies 21 close the fan opening 40. That is, when all the baffle bodies 21 are spliced ​​together, all the baffle bodies 21 can not only close the air inlet 13, but also close the fan opening 40, further reducing the entry of external fumes or insects into the fan 31 or the filter.

[0057] Furthermore, when all the baffle bodies 21 are spliced ​​together, they form a baffle cavity 42 and an opening 43 connected to the baffle cavity 42. One of the fan inlet 40 and the air inlet 13 is located within the opening 43. That is, the component formed by splicing all the baffles is hollow, thereby reducing the weight of the two baffle bodies 21 and improving the flexibility of the movement of the baffle bodies 21.

[0058] Specifically, each shielding part 27 has a bottom wall 29 and a barrier 28 protruding along the edge of the bottom wall 29. When two shielding parts 27 are spliced ​​together, the two barriers 28 and the two bottom walls 29 are also spliced ​​together, and the two barriers 28 and the two bottom walls 29 are spliced ​​together to form a baffle cavity 42 and an opening 43. The opening 43 faces the fan inlet 40 so that the two barriers 28 can cover the fan inlet 40, thereby closing the fan inlet 40. At the same time, the two bottom walls 29 face the air inlet 13 and shield the air inlet 13.

[0059] It should be noted that in some other embodiments, the baffle body 21 may have a certain thickness in the axial direction of the air inlet 13, so that when the two baffle bodies 21 are spliced ​​together, they can simultaneously close the air inlet 13 and the fan outlet 40.

[0060] Further, see Figure 10 , Figure 11 and Figure 12The exhaust port 41 of the fan 31, the fan port 40 on the housing 30, and the air inlet 13 on the baffle housing 11 are coaxially arranged so that when the air inlet 13 and the fan port 40 are opened, the fan port 40 can directly face the exhaust port 41 and draw air from the outside of the baffle housing 11, reducing the path of gas in the process of entering the exhaust port 41 and improving the exhaust effect of the fan 31.

[0061] In some embodiments, in order to move the two baffle bodies 21 closer to or further away from each other, the baffle assembly 20 further includes a drive member 22 and two transmission gears 23. The two transmission gears 23 are rotatably disposed in the air inlet cavity 12 about their own axes, and the axes of the two transmission gears 23 are coaxial with the two rotation axes Y. The two transmission gears 23 mesh with each other and are respectively connected to the two connecting parts 26 of the two baffle bodies 21. The drive member 22 is connected to one of the transmission gears 23 and drives the transmission gear 23 to rotate about its own rotation axis Y.

[0062] Thus, when one of the transmission gears 23 rotates around its own axis, it drives the corresponding baffle body 21 to rotate around the corresponding rotation axis Y. Simultaneously, it also drives the other meshing transmission gear 23 to rotate in the opposite direction, thereby driving the other baffle body 21 to rotate in the opposite direction, thus achieving the mutual approach and distance of the two baffle bodies 21. Optionally, the driving component 22 is a motor, and the opening and closing of the air inlet is achieved by controlling the direction of the current to the motor.

[0063] In this context, "rotating in opposite directions" means that the gears or baffle bodies 21 rotate in opposite directions. That is, when one of the transmission gears 23 and the baffle body 21 rotates clockwise around the rotation axis Y, the other transmission gear 23 and the baffle body 21 will rotate counterclockwise around the rotation axis Y, thus causing the two baffle bodies 21 to move away from each other. Conversely, when one of the transmission gears 23 and the baffle body 21 rotates counterclockwise, the other transmission gear 23 and the baffle body 21 rotate clockwise, thus causing the two baffle bodies 21 to move closer to each other.

[0064] In some specific embodiments, the baffle assembly 20 further includes a meshing worm gear 24 and a worm 25. The worm 25 is sleeved on the output shaft of the drive member 22 and meshes with the worm gear 24. The worm gear 24 is coaxially arranged with and connected to one of the transmission gears 23. In this way, the worm gear 24 and the worm 25 can not only reduce the speed of the output shaft of the drive member 22 to achieve a reasonable speed output, but also utilize the self-locking characteristic of the worm gear 24 and the worm 25, that is, the worm gear 24 can only be driven by the worm 25 and the worm 25 cannot be driven by the worm gear 24. This ensures that the baffle body 21 can only move when the drive member 22 is working, preventing the wind force generated by the fan 31 from driving the baffle body 21 and causing the air inlet to close.

[0065] Furthermore, a first mounting post 14 and a second mounting post 15 are also provided on the baffle housing 11. Both the first mounting post 14 and the second mounting post 15 are located inside the air inlet cavity 12. One of the transmission gears 23 is rotatably mounted on the first mounting post 14, and the worm gear 24 is rotatably mounted on the second mounting post 15, so as to support the worm gear 24 and the transmission gear 23 through the first mounting post 14 and the second mounting post 15.

[0066] It should be noted that the movement of the baffle body 21 can also be directly controlled by two motors. In some other embodiments, the two baffle bodies 21 can also move in a straight line and be controlled by two linear modules. The two baffle bodies 21 can be joined or separated during their linear movement. In still other embodiments, the number of baffle bodies 21 can be one or more. When there is only one baffle body 21, the size of the baffle body 21 is larger than the air inlet 13, so that the baffle body 21 can close and open the air inlet 13 during its movement. When there are multiple baffle bodies 21, the multiple baffle bodies 21 can form a shutter structure. By joining the multiple baffle bodies 21 together, the air inlet 13 can be closed.

[0067] In one specific embodiment, a first sealing element is provided at the joint where each baffle body 21 is spliced ​​with another baffle body 21. The first sealing element can be an elastic component such as sponge or rubber, so that after the two baffle bodies 21 are spliced ​​together, the splicing gap between the two baffle bodies 21 can be sealed by the first sealing element, thereby further reducing the probability of dust, fumes and other substances entering the disinfection machine.

[0068] Furthermore, a second sealing element is also provided between each baffle body 21 and the inner wall of the air inlet cavity 12. The second sealing element can also be a component with a certain elasticity but low friction, such as a sponge, so as to seal the gap between the baffle body 21 and the inner wall of the air inlet cavity 12, thereby preventing external dust and fumes from entering the air inlet cavity 12 through the gap between the baffle body 21 and the inner wall of the air inlet cavity 12, thus improving the protective effect on the filter screen.

[0069] It should be noted that in other embodiments, only one baffle body 21 may be provided with a first sealing element or a second sealing element, which is set according to the actual use requirements and is not limited here.

[0070] In some embodiments of this application, the baffle assembly 20 is mounted on the baffle housing 11, and the baffle housing 11 is detachably mounted on the main body housing 30, meaning the entire baffle structure 10 can be removed from the main body housing 30. In actual use, if the aforementioned drive component 22 or gears are damaged, preventing the air inlet 13 from opening, the user can directly remove the entire baffle structure 10 from the main body housing 30, allowing the fan outlet 40 to directly connect to the outside, thus enabling continued use of the sterilization function of the sterilizer.

[0071] The above-mentioned baffle structure 10 has at least the following advantages:

[0072] When the sterilizer is not in use, the air inlet 13 is closed by the baffle assembly 20, which prevents external mosquitoes or grease from entering the filter of the sterilizer, thereby reducing the chance of the filter being clogged by mosquitoes or grease, ensuring the normal use of the sterilizer and improving the user experience.

[0073] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0074] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementation methods of this application, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this application, and these all fall within the protection scope of this application. Therefore, the protection scope of this patent application should be determined by the appended claims.
