Description

CHARGE FEATURED DESKTOP UV-C AIR STERILIZATION DEVICE Technical Field
This invention relates to charge featured desktop UV-C air sterilization device that can disinfect the ambient air in closed areas in detail, ensure the destruction of harmful organisms that can be transmitted by air, and keep the ambient air constantly clean.
Background of Invention
Most people spend 90 percent of their life indoors. Therefore, indoor air quality, where people live, is crucial. One of the most important problems faced by people is the issue of ensuring air quality. Breathing unhealthy air causes the occurrence of very serious discomfort over time. These problems are exacerbated when the amount of unhealthy air inhaled throughout the day is more than the amount of fresh and clean air.
Indoor air quality in buildings where we spend most of our life has a significant impact on human health. With the researches and the increase of awareness in recent years, measures have been taken for pollutants that adversely affect indoor air quality. Indoor air quality is increasingly becoming the most basic measure of healthy comfort in indoor environments.
The growth of microorganisms in the indoor environment is determined by the presence of nourishment (food, dirt, oil, paper, paint, etc.), humidity, temperature, oxygen and light. Particles or dust particles containing microorganisms remain suspended in the air for a long time and spread over large areas by air currents. Small particles stay in the air longer and can reach farther and this air can be inhaled by someone else. High-sized droplets released as a result of sneezing, coughing, and loud speech disperse to close range and settles on the ground/other surfaces and touching dirty surfaces causes the spreading of the virus indoors without ventilation or at crowded areas such as open offices and restaurants, meeting halls, schools, land registry offices, cargo offices, dining halls, supermarkets, retail stores, hospitals, nursing homes, public transportation vehicles, shops, call centers, indoor sports facilities, hotels.
There are air cleaning devices that kill germs in the air and create air balance. However, while these devices are used, cables are required to operate and the devices are constantly connected to the power supply.
Aim and Definition of Invention
The invention includes a battery and the device can operate UVC LEDs for a period of time. It occupies less space than other existing devices and is more decorative and provides the advantage of use.
The aim of the this invention is to take air from the lower part and be discharged from the upper part for the particles contaminated by the airway, which hold on to surfaces such as a table and remain for a long time.
The structural and characteristic features and all the advantages of the invention will be understood more clearly thanks to the figures given below and the detailed explanation written by referring to these figures, and therefore this evaluation should be made by taking these figures and detailed explanations into consideration.

The invention is comprised of;
• aluminum body (1), which is wrapped around the device, its color can be changed by painting with static powder paints, with upper plexi cover (2) at the top, lower plexi cover (4) and stands (5) at the bottom, and mounted through 2 holes at the back (1),
• the upper plexi cover (2) that passes the sterilized air through the holes on it,
- the on / off button (2.1 ) on the upper plexi cover (2) that enables the device to be activated when it is pressed,
- the internal skeleton (3) that located inside the body (1), providing support and mounted from the 2 holes at the back, consisting of fan (3.1), battery
(3.2), battery holder (3.3), USB port (3.4), charge input (3.5), PCB board (3.6) and UV-C LED modules (3.7) on it,
- the fan (3.1) mounted on the inner skeleton (3) just below the upper plexi cover (2), which provides the ambient air to be drawn into the device,
- the battery (3.2) mounted on the internal skeleton (3) that enables the system to operate for 3 to 12 hours in terms of capacity after charging and provides electricity in a mobile manner,
- the battery holder (3.3) in the form of a thin strip that allows the battery
(3.2) to be fixed in the device,
- USB port (3.4), which has at least 2 on the device and is used to charge the charging equipment of portable devices,
- charge input (3.5) that enables the battery (3.2) to be charged,
- PCB board (3.6) mounted on the lower part of the inner skeleton (3), which enables the operation and coexistence of the parts to which it is connected, provides the control of the electrical circuits,
- UV-C LED module (3.7) located on the battery holder (3.3) containing at least 3 UV-C LEDs, each of which can see an angle of 120 degrees and radiate in the wavelength range of 254-280 nm, and which cleans the air taken from the environment from microorganisms such as viruses and bacteria,
• the lower plexi cover (4) with holes on the lower part that allows the dirty air in the device to be drawn into the body (1), • at least 4 legs (5) that enable the device to be placed on any high floor and to stand.
UV-C LEDs cause harmful microorganisms to be inactive by causing cross-linking of thymines in the DNA structure.
The invention starts to work by pressing the on/off button (2.1). The fan (3.1) draws the ambient air into the device through the holes on the lower plexi cover (4). The air sterilized by the UV-C LEDs on the UV-C LED module (3.7) is given to the outside through the upper plexi covers (2) on the upper part of the body (1). With the drawing of air from the lower plexi covers (4), microorganisms settled on surfaces such as tables are drawn into the device and disinfected, and a continuous clean air flow free from microorganisms is provided to the environment.
The USB port (3.4) has the capacity to charge up to 6 hours with a full battery (3.2). PCB board (3.6) contains the software that enables the system to operate, and it is located on the USB port (3.4) and charge input (3.5).
The air taken inside and sterilized according to the model and shape of the subject invention comes out from the upper plexi covers (2). The shape of the invention can be changed to be hexagonal or octagon according to the user's request for decorative and aesthetic stance. In UV-C LED modules (3.7), 1 module or 2 modules are placed according to the shape of the device. The color of the device can be optionally coated with static powder paints.
The 2 holes at the back of the invention are the mounting places of the inner skeleton (3) and the body (1). This invention has a structure that can charge 2 phones at the same time while sterilizing the ambient air. In addition, since it can operate with a battery (3.2) without a cable, it can be easily transported and used in any area without being connected to a socket.
The technical and all other features mentioned in each claim are followed by a reference number, and these reference numbers are used only to facilitate understanding of the claims, therefore they should not be considered as limiting the scope of any of the elements indicated by these reference numbers for exemplary purposes. It is obvious that a person skilled in the art can demonstrate the novelty revealed in the invention by using similar embodiments and/or can apply this embodiment in other areas of similar purpose used in the art. It is therefore obvious that such embodiments will not accommodate the criterion of overcoming novelty and in particular the known status of art.
