Description
Technical Field
The application relates to the technical field of disinfection cabinets, in particular to a plasma disinfection cabinet and a disinfection method.
Background
At present, the sterilizing cabinet generally adopts ultraviolet rays, high temperature, ozone and other modes for sterilization and disinfection. Ultraviolet sterilization range is limited, and sterilization is incomplete. High-temperature sterilization energy consumption is high, and some plastic kitchen ware which cannot resist high temperature cannot be sterilized at high temperature. Ozone has a remarkable sterilizing effect, but has strong pungent odor and certain toxicity. Excessive ozone can strongly stimulate the respiratory tract of people, cause symptoms such as sore throat, chest distress, cough and the like, and possibly cause bronchitis and emphysema; long-term working in high-concentration ozone environment can cause neurotoxicity, dizziness, headache, vision decline and memory deterioration of people.
Plasma sterilization has been used in medical applications, and the plasma is generated mainly by dielectric barrier discharge and corona discharge, and the discharge devices include DBD, glow, spark and Propeller Arc. The plasma technology can realize excellent sterilization effect, and the principle comprises three parts: active particle radical oxidation, high-speed particle breakdown, and ultraviolet photons. The sterilization process does not need high temperature, and meanwhile, the active particles can be rapidly diffused to a sterilization space in a gaseous mode, so that dead-angle-free sterilization is realized. The main reason for limiting the use of plasma technology is that a large amount of ozone is generated during the plasma discharge. The pungent odor and toxicity of ozone itself limit the use of plasma technology in everyday life.
In order to control the ozone concentration, three modes are adopted at present: shortens the plasma discharge time, improves the ambient temperature and promotes ozone decomposition by adding a catalyst.
Ozone concentration is reduced by shortening plasma discharge time, long period intermittent operation is often formed, for example, a refrigerator adopts discharge for 1min and rest for 30min, and the cycle mode is adopted. Although the sterilization effect can be achieved in the method, the power consumption is improved due to long-time standby, and the method is not suitable for other electric appliances with discontinuous power supply, such as washing machines, disinfection cabinets, water heaters, air conditioners and the like.
The ozone concentration is reduced by adopting a mode of increasing the ambient temperature, so that the power consumption is increased on one hand, and the period is prolonged and the working efficiency is reduced on the other hand because the ozone is slowly decomposed. Meanwhile, the method is not suitable for household appliances working at low temperature or normal temperature such as refrigerators, washing machines and the like.
The ozone decomposition is promoted by adopting a mode of adding the catalyst, and the phenomena of low efficiency, easy inactivation of the catalyst and the like are caused, so that the concentration of ozone is unstable and easily exceeds the standard.

Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," and the like, are used for descriptive purposes only and are not to be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.
The application discloses a plasma sterilizing and disinfecting cabinet, referring to fig. 1 to 4, wherein fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of a principle of the sterilizing cabinet, fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of a structure of the sterilizing cabinet, fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of a structure of a plasma generating module, and fig. 4 is a schematic diagram of a structure of an atomizing module. The sterilizing cabinet comprises a cabinet body 300, wherein a sterilizing space 310 is formed in the cabinet body 300, and articles to be sterilized are placed in the sterilizing space 310 for sterilization. The plasma sterilization and disinfection cabinet comprises a plasma generation module 100, a power supply module 200, an air flow module 500 and an atomization module 600. The plasma generating module 100 includes a gas chamber 120, a discharge assembly 110 is disposed in the gas chamber 120, and a gas outlet 122 and a openable gas inlet 121 are disposed on a sidewall of the gas chamber 120. The power module 200 supplies a high voltage power to the discharge assembly 110, so that the discharge assembly 110 generates plasma. The gas flow module 500 communicates with the gas outlet 122 through a pipe for delivering the plasma in the gas chamber 120 into the sterilization space 310. The atomizing module 600 is disposed on the cabinet 300, and is used for inputting mist into the sterilizing space 310.
The plasma generating module 100 comprises an initial discharging stage and a stable discharging stage, wherein in the initial discharging stage, the air flow module 500 is closed, the air outlet 122 is closed, the air chamber 120 is closed, the discharging component 110 generates plasma under the action of the power module 200, and after the initial discharging stage works for a period of time, the ozone concentration of the plasma in the air chamber 120 is reduced and stabilized; then, the plasma generating module 100 enters a stable discharge stage, at this time, the air flow module 500 is opened, the air inlet 121 is opened, the plasma with low ozone concentration in the air chamber 120 enters the sterilizing space 310 for sterilization, and at the same time, new air enters the air chamber for discharge to generate new plasma. At the same time, the mist generated by the atomizing module 600 reacts with the plasma generated in the sterilizing space 310 to generate strong oxidative active particles, so that the ozone concentration is reduced, and the sterilizing rate is improved. The sterilizing cabinet reduces ozone concentration and improves sterilizing efficiency through the synergistic effect of the plasma generating module 100, the air flow module 500 and the atomizing module 600
The plasma generated by the plasma generating module 100 is not directly input into the sterilizing space 310, but is input into the sterilizing space 310 for sterilization after the reaction inside the closed gas chamber 120 for a period of time, for example, 1-5min, after the plasma inside the gas chamber 120 is stabilized. The reason for this is that the discharge assembly 110 may store ozone and other active molecules in the plasma generated during the initial stage of discharge, and if the plasma containing ozone is directly introduced into the sterilization space 310 for sterilization, the odor and toxicity of the ozone may adversely affect the user. The ozone and the active molecules are very unstable at the initial stage of discharge, and the ozone and other active molecules react, so that after the plasma containing a certain amount of ozone and active molecules generated at the initial stage of discharge reacts in the closed air chamber 120 for a period of time, the ozone and other active molecules react with each other in the air chamber to reduce the ozone concentration, and then the plasma with low ozone concentration is input into the sterilizing space 310 for sterilization, thereby realizing omnibearing sterilization without dead angles and avoiding adverse effects caused by ozone. The plasma generation module 100 makes full use of the characteristic that the plasma generated by the discharge assembly 110 at the initial stage of discharge is unstable, and provides a reaction space for the unstable plasma by using the closed gas chamber 120, and inputs the plasma into the sterilization space 310 for sterilization after the concentration of ozone is reduced after the reaction.
Further, the discharge assembly 110 adopts the dielectric barrier discharge form in the prior art, and referring to fig. 3, the discharge assembly 110 includes a high-voltage electrode111. A ground electrode 113 and a dielectric layer 112, the dielectric layer 112 being provided between the high-voltage electrode 111 and the ground electrode 113; the discharge power density of the discharge assembly 110 is greater than 0.17W/cm 2 . The discharge power density is increased by increasing the discharge power of the discharge assembly 110, reducing the discharge area. Increasing the discharge power density helps to reduce the ozone concentration. Fig. 5 is a schematic diagram showing the relationship between the discharge power and the ozone concentration, and it can be seen from the figure that the greater the discharge power density, the lower the ozone concentration.
Further, the high voltage electrode 111 and the ground electrode 113 are connected to the power module 200, and the high voltage power provided by the power module 200 includes sinusoidal high voltage and pulsed high voltage power. Specifically, in the embodiment, the frequency of the sinusoidal high-voltage power supply is 50Hz-100MHz, the voltage amplitude is 1kV-20kV, and the frequency of the pulsed high-voltage power supply is lower than 100kHz. The high voltage power supply thus arranged contributes to the generation of a uniform plasma with a low ozone concentration.
As a preferred embodiment, the air flow module 500 includes an air outlet duct 520 and an air pump 510, the air pump 510 being in communication with the air outlet 122 through a pipe, and the end of the air outlet duct 520 being in communication with the sterilization space 310. When the plasma generating module 100 is in the stable discharge phase, the plasma in the gas chamber 120 enters the sterilization space 310 through the gas outlet pipe 520 by the gas pump 510.
Further, the flow rate of the gas outputted from the gas flow module 500 is preferably 0.8L/min to 5L/min. The active components in the plasma change with the change of the gas circulation rate, and the ozone concentration of the embodiment is reduced with the reduction of the gas circulation rate through a plurality of experiments. Fig. 6 shows the relationship between the gas flow rate and the ozone concentration measured in three different time periods, and it can be seen from fig. 6 that the ozone concentration increases with an increase in the gas flow rate and decreases with a decrease in the gas flow rate, so that the gas flow rate needs to be controlled in a lower range section in order to decrease the ozone concentration. By reasonably controlling the air pump 510, the flow rate of the air blown out of the air pump can not only input the plasma into the sterilization space 310, but also help to reduce the ozone concentration.
In other embodiments, the airflow module 500 may also be a fan disposed at the air outlet 122, where the air outlet 122 communicates with the sterilization space 310, and the plasma in the air chamber 120 enters the sterilization space 310 under the blowing action of the fan.
Further, an auxiliary heating module (not shown) is provided in the air chamber 120 for decomposing ozone in the air chamber to further reduce the ozone concentration. The specific structural form of the auxiliary heating module is not particularly limited, and the auxiliary heating module adopts PTC hot air, heating sheets and the like. The heating temperature of the auxiliary heating module is preferably not lower than 60 ℃ so as to ensure that ozone can be effectively decomposed and the ozone concentration is reduced.
The sterilizing cabinet further comprises a main heating module 400 which serves in two ways, on the one hand for drying the articles to be sterilized in the sterilizing space and, on the other hand, for decomposing small amounts of ozone present in the sterilizing space. Wherein, the drying effect is mainly and the ozone decomposing effect is auxiliary. The specific structural form of the main heating module 400 is not particularly limited in the present application, such as PTC hot air, a heating sheet, etc.
The heating temperature of the main heating module 400 is 30-80 c, preferably 60 c. The main heating module 400 in the temperature range can dry the articles to be sterilized and decompose ozone.
The main heating module 400 operates simultaneously with the plasma generating module 100, that is, the main heating module 400 simultaneously dries and decomposes ozone, which helps to shorten the sterilization time and provide the sterilization efficiency. In the existing disinfection cabinets, for example, an ozone disinfection cabinet, two procedures of drying and decomposing ozone by heating are separately operated, a large amount of ozone enters a disinfection space, then the disinfection is performed by utilizing the ozone, after the disinfection is completed, the heating module is started to decompose the ozone, and after the ozonolysis is completed, the heating module is continuously heated to realize drying. The procedures of sterilization, ozone decomposition and drying are completed independently, so that the sterilization time of the sterilizing cabinet is greatly prolonged, and the efficiency is low. In this embodiment, the concentration of ozone contained in the plasma generated by the plasma generating module 100 is low before the plasma enters the sterilizing space 310, so that the plasma entering the sterilizing space 310 can meet the use requirement even if the ozone decomposing operation is not performed. The main heating module 400 can decompose a small amount of ozone which is still stored while performing a drying operation, further reduce the concentration of ozone, and improve the usability of the sterilizing cabinet.
