Description

  The present invention includes gloves, socks, hats, ties, handkerchiefs, clothing, footwear, and other items such as toothbrushes, dentures, wigs, wallets, accessory cases / bags, towels, masks, necklaces, pendants, watches, baby products, sanitary products. The present invention relates to a deodorizing device using ozone for household items such as a dirt bag for nursing care.

  Portable ozone generation means that can be used only in open living spaces such as living rooms are commercialized and supplied to the market in various ways. However, the portable ozone generation means can be applied to clothing and daily necessities. There is no deodorizing device that can store odors in the same sealed space to deodorize them. In addition, there are high-performance ozone deodorizers that make ozone generation means and sealed space integrated and inseparable, but there are deodorizers that can deodorize the ozone generation means even in open living spaces. Not. The odors to be deodorized in this deodorizing apparatus are mainly bad odors that accompany the daily activities such as tobacco odor, mold odor, aging odor, manure odor and pet odor.

  For example, a sterilization / deodorization apparatus for filth as disclosed in Patent Document 1 is provided with a sealed storage space capable of sealing a deodorized object and an open / close mechanism for taking in and out the deodorized object. The means and the collection container for storing the filth are integrated and cannot be separated. Therefore, the sterilization / deodorization apparatus for waste according to the present invention cannot be used alone for air purification in an open living space such as a living room.

  Alternatively, the deodorizing and sterilizing apparatus such as a wig disclosed in Patent Document 2 is provided with an openable / closable lid that allows a deodorized object such as a wig to be taken in and out of the sealed storage space. In addition, the ozone generating means and the storage container for storing the deodorant such as wig are integrated and cannot be separated. Therefore, a deodorizing / sterilizing apparatus such as a wig based on the present invention cannot be used alone for air purification in an open living space such as a living room.

  The directly attached power plug type ozone generating means disclosed in Non-Patent Document 1 is portable, but is intended to be used for air purification in an open living space such as a living room. However, when using deodorizing clothing and daily necessities that require relatively high concentrations of ozone, there is no safety mechanism that shields ozone from the human body. It must be operated while monitoring and cannot be used by mistake. Therefore, it is difficult to deodorize articles to be deodorized of clothing and daily necessities using the directly attached power plug type ozone generating means disclosed in this non-patent document.

  Therefore, the problem to be solved by the present invention is an open living space such as a living room, a bedroom, a reception room, etc., and a sealed space with a low probability of causing harm to a human body even when irradiated with a relatively high concentration of ozone for a certain period of time. It is intended to provide a deodorizing device using ozone for clothes and household items that can be used in combination with any of the above.

  The deodorizing apparatus using ozone according to the present invention has the following structure in order to solve the above-mentioned problems. That is, the ozone deodorizing apparatus of the present invention is provided with a casing having a sealed storage space capable of storing deodorized items such as clothing and daily necessities and portable ozone generating means, and an open / close mechanism in the sealed storage space. Consists of a structure.

  The portable ozone generation means here can be gripped with one hand for the small size, can be gripped with both hands, and can be easily moved to the living room or bedroom, etc. It has control functions such as ozone generation mechanism, ozone discharge port, ozone concentration adjustment mechanism, timer device, power switch, operation lighting lamp, etc., and is connected to a commercial power outlet via a direct power plug or power cord It is formed into a configuration. The portable ozone generating means can be equipped with a secondary battery.

  As is clear from the above description, clothing and household items are deodorized based on the deodorizing action of ozone in a sealed space, so people do not touch ozone directly, so there is no danger to the human body. Deodorization work can be performed. In addition, since it can be deodorized in a sealed space, it can be efficiently erased in a short period of time without causing excessive or insufficient deodorization compared to deodorizing objects in an open living space. It is possible to deodorize odors.

  Note that the ozone deodorizing apparatus of the present invention does not integrate the ozone generating means so that it cannot be separated from the casing, and the ozone generating means is portable, so that the living room, bedroom, reception room, etc. as in the past. Even in an open living space, it can be used alone as a deodorizing device.
