Description

  The present invention relates to a hand disinfection device for disinfecting and sterilizing hands with humid air.

  Moist air has a bactericidal action. It is conceivable to disinfect the fingers using this. Since moist air is formed only from water and does not contain chemicals or the like, there is no influence on the human body, especially when performing disinfection (sterilization) on the fingers, which is preferable from an economical viewpoint.

  In the case of humid air, if air from the outside enters the disinfection space, it causes moisture contamination that generates humid air. Moist air is generated in the lower part of the sterilization space and lifts the sterilization space to sterilize the fingers, so this air flow creates negative pressure near the opening where the fingers are inserted, and the sterilization space is exposed from the outside. Due to the high temperature, external air easily flows into the disinfection space. Since the humid air continues to be used without draining the water, it is necessary to prevent it from being contaminated as much as possible.

  The present invention is based on the above-mentioned prior art, and prevents the air from being contaminated by external air being attracted to the inside of the disinfection space when the hand is sterilized using the humid air. The object is to provide a hand disinfection device that can be used.

  In order to achieve the above object, according to the first aspect of the present invention, the stored water tank, the heat source device for warming the water in the water tank, the vibrator for atomizing the water, and the opening for inserting the finger And a hand sanitizing space that is located above the water tank and is sealed with the cover material except for the opening, and protrudes outward at all or part of the periphery of the opening. Provided is a hand disinfection device characterized by including a protruding member.

  The invention of claim 2 is characterized in that, in the invention of claim 1, the projecting member is formed to have a concave-convex cross section.

  According to the first aspect of the present invention, since the projecting member protruding outward from the peripheral edge of the opening provided in the cover material is provided, the disinfecting space becomes hotter than the outside due to the humid air generated from the water tank, Even when an updraft is generated and convection is generated and the vicinity of the opening of the cover member has a negative pressure, it is possible to prevent external air from being blocked by the protruding member and flow into the disinfection space.

  According to the invention of claim 2, since the projecting member is formed in an uneven shape in cross section, even if a negative pressure that attracts external air into the disinfection space is generated by the convection of the humid air, the flow is reduced. It can be disturbed and external air can be prevented from flowing into the disinfection space.

  The present invention includes a stored water tank, a heat source device for warming water in the water tank, a vibrator for converting water into particles, a cover material having an opening for inserting a finger, and an upper part of the water tank. And a finger disinfection space that is sealed with the cover material except for the opening, and all or part of the periphery of the opening is provided with a protruding member protruding outward. Hand disinfection device.

FIG. 1 is a schematic configuration diagram of a hand sanitizer according to the present invention.
A hand sanitizer 1 according to the present invention includes a cover material 2, a water tank 3, a vibrator 4, and a heat source device 5. The hand disinfection space 6 for disinfecting the finger H is formed by a space covered with the cover material 2 at the upper part of the water tank. The finger H is sterilized (sterilized) by the humid air generated from the water tank 3.

This humid air is generated as follows.
The water in the water tank 3 is heated to about 60 ° C. to 70 ° C. by the heat source device 5 connected to the water tank 3. Thereafter, the water in the water tank 3 is granulated by the vibrator 4 to form water droplets. This transducer is preferably an ultrasonic transducer. Thereby, humid air is generated. At this time, the generated humid air is prevented from being cooled by the infrared rays from the infrared light source 7. Since this humid air is about 60 ° C. to 70 ° C., it is not too hot and is a temperature suitable for disinfecting fingers.

  On the periphery of the opening 8 of the cover member 2, a protruding member 9 that protrudes outward is provided. By providing the protruding member 9, it is possible to prevent outside air from flowing into the hand sanitizing space 6. That is, the generated humid air rises in the hand disinfection space 6 and convects (in the direction of the arrow in the figure). Due to the air flow, the vicinity of the opening 8 of the cover material 2 becomes a negative pressure (negative pressure). This negative pressure generates an air flow that attracts external air into the hand sanitizing space 6. This air flow appears more prominently because the temperature in the hand sanitizing space 6 is higher than the outside. However, this air flow can be blocked by the protruding member 9. In particular, the air flowing in the direction of the opening 8 along the surface of the cover member 2 can be blocked by the protruding member 9. Therefore, it is possible to suppress external air from flowing into the hand sanitizing space 6. Thus, since this invention can prevent inflow of external air, without providing power equipment, the number of parts of an apparatus decreases, cost efficiency is high, and an apparatus is reduced in size.

  The protruding member 9 is formed so that the cross section has an uneven shape (in the drawing, the cross section is V-shaped). By adopting such a shape, it is possible to disturb the flow of air that is about to flow in from the opening of the projecting member 9 and stir, so that it is possible to reliably prevent external air from flowing into the hand sanitizing space 6. The protruding member 9 may be integrally formed with the cover material 2 or may be attached later as a separate member. Moreover, if the shape of the protruding member 9 is a shape that disturbs the flow of air, the shape and number of irregularities can be selected as appropriate. For example, it is conceivable to form a fin inside the protruding member 9. Further, the protruding member 9 may be formed over the entire periphery of the opening 8 or may be formed in part.

  The present invention can be applied as a configuration that prevents the inflow of external air into the disinfection device.
