  As shown in FIGS. 3A and 3B, the deodorization / sterilization system 2 mounted on the airplane 1 of this embodiment includes a plurality of electrostatic atomizers 11. That is, a plurality of electrostatic atomizers 11 (30 electrostatic atomizers 11 as an example in the figure) are arranged in the cabin 51 of the airplane 1. In FIG. 1, only one electrostatic atomizer 11 is shown as a representative. Moreover, the control part 17 of each electrostatic atomizer 11 is electrically connected to the system control part 41 as a control means provided with a microcomputer and controlling the deodorizing / sterilizing system 2.

  As shown in FIG. 3A, in the cabin 51, 10 rows of three-seats 52 a are arranged in the center in the width direction of the cabin 51 along the front-rear direction at regular intervals. Further, in the cabin 51, ten rows of two-person seats 52b are arranged at regular intervals in the front-rear direction so as to sandwich the seat for three people 52a at both ends of the cabin 51 in the width direction. The seats for three people 52a and the seats for two people are arranged adjacent to each other.

  As shown in FIG. 3B, the plurality of electrostatic atomizers 11 are arranged above the seats 52 a and 52 b in the ceiling portion 53. The plurality of electrostatic atomizers 11 are arranged at a predetermined interval in the front-rear direction (before and after the three-person seat 52a is disposed) at a portion of the ceiling portion 53 that faces the central portion of each three-person seat 52a in the vertical direction. The same as the interval in the direction). Further, the plurality of electrostatic atomizers 11 are arranged in the ceiling portion 53 at a predetermined interval in the front-rear direction (a two-person seat 52b is disposed at a position facing the substantially central portion of each two-person seat 52b in the vertical direction. The same as the distance in the front-rear direction). Moreover, these electrostatic atomizers 11 discharge | release the generated charged fine particle water M in the cabin 51 in the place where each is arrange | positioned.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the system control unit 41 according to the present embodiment controls each electrostatic atomizer 11 so as to adjust the discharge amount of the charged fine particle water M according to the number of people in the cabin 51. As shown in FIG. 1, the airplane 1 includes a human sensor 61 that detects a person using infrared rays emitted by the person. In the human sensor 61, the cabin 51 is divided into a plurality of areas, and infrared rays generated in the divided areas are detected by a pyroelectric element 63 via a Fresnel lens (multi-lens) 62.

  Then, the detection result of the pyroelectric element 63 is detected by the comparator 65 after being amplified by the amplifier circuit 64. The detection result in the comparator 65 is counted in the count circuit 66, and the count circuit 66 outputs the count number to the system control unit 41. The system control unit 41 estimates the number of passengers in the cabin 51 based on the count number output from the count circuit 66.

  An unspecified number of people board the cabin 51 of the airplane 1 configured as described above, and unspecified people come into contact with the seats 52a and 52b one after another. In addition, since various odors and allergen substances enter the cabin 51 where an unspecified number of people board, these odors and allergen substances adhere to the seats 52a, 52b, walls, ceiling, floor, and the like.

  Therefore, the system control unit 41 adjusts the discharge amount of the charged fine particle water M discharged from the electrostatic atomizer 11 according to the number of passengers estimated by the human sensor 61. For example, the system control unit 41 controls the electrostatic atomizer 11 such that the larger the estimated number of passengers, the greater the amount of discharged charged particulate water M is. Then, since the discharge amount of the charged fine particle water M discharged from each electrostatic atomizer 11 is increased, the deodorization / sterilization and the efficient removal in the cabin 51 by the action of the active species contained in the charged fine particle water M Allergen substances can be inactivated.

Next, characteristic effects of the present embodiment will be described.
(1) The airplane 1 includes an electrostatic atomizer 11 that discharges charged fine particle water M into the cabin 51. The charged fine particle water M has a longer residence time in the air than air ions. For this reason, the charged fine particle water M can be filled over a wide range in the cabin 51. Therefore, compared with the case where it is necessary to increase the power of the ion generating means in order to fill the cabin 51 with high-concentration air ions, the charged particulate water M reduces the power consumption and the environment in the cabin 51 efficiently. Can be comfortable.

  (2) The system control unit 41 adjusts the discharge amount of the charged fine particle water M released by the electrostatic atomizer 11 according to the number of passengers estimated by the human sensor 61. To control. The system control unit 41 performs control so that the larger the number of passengers estimated by the human sensor 61, the greater the amount of charged particulate water M released. Therefore, when it can be estimated that the number of passengers is large and the interior of the guest room 51 is dirty, a large amount of charged fine particle water M can be discharged into the guest room 51, and the interior of the guest room 51 can be made comfortable. On the other hand, when the number of passengers estimated by the human sensor 61 is small, the system control unit 41 controls the discharge amount of the charged fine particle water M to be small. Therefore, it can be estimated that the number of passengers is small and the dirt in the guest room 51 is small, and when it is not necessary to discharge a large amount of charged fine particle water M into the guest room 51, the discharge amount of the charged fine particle water M can be reduced. Further, it is possible to prevent the charged fine particle water M from being discharged into the cabin 51 wastefully.

  (3) Each electrostatic atomizer 11 is disposed above the seats 52 a and 52 b in the ceiling portion 53. Therefore, the charged fine particle water M is discharged toward the seats 52a and 52b and adhered to the seats 52a and 52b, and the seats 52a and 52b on which an unspecified number of people sit can be effectively deodorized / sanitized or allergens. The substance can be inactivated. Furthermore, the charged fine particle water M can be discharged also to the person sitting in each seat 52a, 52b, and the charged fine particle water M is applied to the hair or clothes of the person sitting in each seat 52a, 52b. Can be attached to deodorize and sterilize or inactivate allergen substances.

  (4) The electrostatic atomizer 11 includes a Peltier module 26. Therefore, since dew condensation water can be generated on the surface of the discharge electrode 23 by the cooling operation of the Peltier module 26, there is no need to separately provide a device for supplying water to the surface of the discharge electrode 23. Maintenance for generating can be facilitated.

In addition, you may change embodiment of this invention as follows.
In the embodiment, the system control unit 41 estimates the number of people in one area among the areas obtained by dividing the guest room 51 into a plurality of areas, and estimates the other areas as the same number of persons in the guest room 51. The number of passengers may be estimated.

  In the embodiment, the system control unit 41 may estimate the number of passengers in the guest room 51 by estimating and totaling the number of people in each area of the guest room 51 divided into a plurality of areas. Good. And the system control part 41 controls the electrostatic atomizer 11 so that the discharge amount of the charged fine particle water M may be adjusted according to the estimated number of passengers. Even in this case, the charged fine particle water M can be efficiently discharged into the cabin 51 according to the number of passengers in the cabin 51.

  In the embodiment, the system control unit 41 estimates the number of passengers using the human sensor 61 and controls the electrostatic atomizer 11 according to the estimation result. The control unit 41 may directly input the actual number of passengers and control the electrostatic atomizer 11 based on the input information.

  As in the embodiment shown in FIG. 4, the number of passengers in the cabin 51 may be estimated using the carbon dioxide sensor 71. The carbon dioxide sensor 71 is disposed at a position away from the boarding gate in the cabin 51 in order to avoid the influence of opening and closing of the door of the boarding gate (not shown). The carbon dioxide sensor 71 detects the carbon dioxide concentration in the cabin 51 and outputs the detection result to the system control unit 41. The system control unit 41 estimates the number of passengers in the cabin 51 based on the carbon dioxide concentration detected by the carbon dioxide sensor 71 based on the relationship between the number of passengers in the cabin 51 and the carbon dioxide concentration in the cabin 51 that has been obtained in advance. .

  The system control unit 41 adjusts the discharge amount of the charged fine particle water M discharged from the electrostatic atomizer 11 according to the number of passengers estimated by the human sensor 61, but is not limited thereto. For example, the discharge amount of the charged fine particle water M may be adjusted according to the time until the airplane 1 takes off and landes. As shown in FIG. 5, the airplane 1 includes a timer 81, and the timer 81 is electrically connected to the system control unit 41. The timer 81 transmits a signal indicating that the take-off has taken place to the system control unit 41 when the door of the boarding gate is closed and takes off, and the system control unit 41 receives the signal from the timer 81. The electrostatic atomizer 11 is controlled so as to start the discharge of the charged fine particle water M by the atomizer 11. Further, when the airplane 81 has landed, the timer 81 transmits a signal indicating that the aircraft has landed to the system control unit 41. When the system control unit 41 receives the signal from the timer 81, the electrostatic atomizer 11 The electrostatic atomizer 11 is controlled so as to stop the discharge of the charged fine particle water M. According to this, when the boarding door is opened, the charged fine particle water M is not discharged by the electrostatic atomizer 11 and the discharged charged fine particle water M is discharged from the cabin 51 to the outside. The charged fine particle water M can be efficiently discharged into the cabin 51. Further, the charged fine particle water M does not continue to be discharged by the electrostatic atomizer 11 even though the airplane 1 has landed and no one has left the guest room 51. It is possible to prevent wasteful discharge into the inside.

  -In embodiment, although the electrostatic atomizer 11 was arrange | positioned at the ceiling part 53, if not limited to this, if the charged fine particle water M can be discharge | released in the cabin 51, the electrostatic atomizer 11 will be shown. The arrangement position is not particularly limited. For example, in the example illustrated in FIG. 6A, the electrostatic atomizer 11 is provided at the outlet 121 at the downstream end of the air passage 125 of the air conditioner 124 including the cooler 122 and the air conditioner fan 123. The mist discharge ports 22a are arranged so as to be adjacent to each other. In the example shown in FIG. 6B, the electrostatic atomizer 11 is arranged so that the mist outlet 22 a is adjacent to the air passage 125 of the air conditioner 124. Moreover, the electrostatic atomizer 11 may be arrange | positioned in the upstream or downstream of the air conditioner fan 123 inside the air conditioner 124.

  According to this, the charged fine particle water M can be effectively diffused into the cabin 51 using the airflow of the air conditioner 124. Some cabins 51 can manually change the ejection direction of the ejection port 121. Therefore, when the electrostatic atomizer 11 is arranged in the cabin 51 in the vicinity of the outlet 121 or inside the air conditioner 124, a person boarding the airplane 1 can manually change the injection direction of the outlet 121. It becomes possible to concentrate and bathe in the charged fine particle water M.

  As shown in the embodiment shown in FIG. 7, a barometric pressure sensor 91 as a barometric pressure detecting means is provided in the cabin 51 to detect the barometric pressure in the cabin 51 and input to the Peltier module 26 based on the detected barometric pressure. The voltage may be adjusted. When the airplane 1 takes off and flies over, the atmospheric pressure in the passenger cabin 51 decreases, so that the voltage input to the Peltier module 26 can be increased to quickly generate condensed water on the surface of the discharge electrode 23. Therefore, the charged fine particle water M can be efficiently generated by adjusting the voltage input to the Peltier module 26 according to the change in the atmospheric pressure in the cabin 51. As a result, the electrostatic atomizer 11 The charged fine particle water M can be efficiently discharged into the cabin 51. The adjustment of the voltage input to the Peltier module 26 is generated by the control unit 17 based on the high-voltage voltage signal input from the high-voltage power supply voltage detection circuit 15 and the discharge current signal input from the discharge current detection circuit 16. This is performed by outputting the discharged voltage adjustment signal to the high voltage power supply circuit 13. Therefore, the control unit 17 functions as a voltage adjusting unit that adjusts the voltage input to the Peltier module 26.

  In the embodiment, the heat dissipation member 31 of the Peltier module 26 may be disposed at a position where it can be cooled by the outside air. For example, as shown in FIG. 8, the ceiling 53 is formed with a recess 53a that is recessed toward the outside whose temperature is lower than that in the cabin 51, and the heat dissipation member 31 is fitted in the recess 53a. Here, in the ceiling portion 53, the portion where the concave portion 53a is formed is thinner than the portion where the concave portion 53a is not formed. Therefore, the portion where the concave portion 53a is formed in the ceiling portion 53 is the ceiling portion 53. Heat is more easily transmitted as compared with a portion of the portion 53 where the concave portion 53a is not formed. Thereby, the heat radiating member 31 is cooled by the outside air through the portion where the concave portion 53 a in the ceiling portion 53 is formed, and it is possible to easily generate condensed water on the surface of the discharge electrode 23. Therefore, it is possible to suppress power consumption necessary for generating condensed water on the surface of the discharge electrode 23. Further, it is not necessary to provide a separate device for easily generating condensed water on the surface of the discharge electrode 23, and the electrostatic atomization system can be miniaturized. Further, a heater may be arranged around the heat radiating member 31 and the temperature of the heat radiating member 31 may be adjusted by the heater. According to this, it is possible to prevent the heat radiating member 31 from being cooled too much by the outside air and generating too much condensed water on the surface of the discharge electrode 23 or the surface of the discharge electrode 23 being frozen. Can do.

  In the embodiment, the system control unit 41 is capable of receiving an operation signal from the aviation wireless device or the aircraft landing support device and receives an operation signal from the aviation wireless device or the aircraft landing support device. The application of a high voltage to the discharge electrode 23 may be stopped. According to this, when the charged fine particle water M is generated, noise generated by applying a high voltage to the discharge electrode 23 adversely affects the reception of the operation signal from the aircraft radio equipment or the aircraft landing equipment. Can be suppressed. Here, the aviation wireless device is an aviation wireless device that is mainly used for air traffic control that gives instructions and information on air traffic to the airplane 1 from the ground. Air traffic control includes, for example, control section control, control approval, ground control, airfield control, entry control, and exit control. Examples of the aircraft landing support device include an instrument landing device (ILS) and a microwave landing device (MLS).

  -In embodiment, although the electrostatic atomizer 11 was formed so that a high voltage might be applied between the discharge electrode 23 and the counter electrode 22 arrange | positioned facing this discharge electrode 23, to this, Not limited to this, the electrostatic atomizer 11 may be configured not to include the counter electrode 22 but to apply a high voltage to the discharge electrode 23. Moreover, the role of the counter electrode 22 depends on the components of the electrostatic atomizer 11 disposed around the discharge electrode 23 such as the charge removal plate and the support frame 21 and the housing of the device on which the electrostatic atomizer 11 is mounted. You may make it fulfill.
