Description

  The present invention relates to a processing apparatus using wet air for disinfecting, sterilizing, drying, and cooking fingers and objects with wet air.

  When sterilizing fingers and objects, chemicals such as detergents are used. It is said that this chemical is suitably changed according to the object to be sterilized, and is preferably performed using an optimal chemical each time. On the other hand, humid air also has a bactericidal action. This can be used to disinfect sterilization objects such as fingers and objects. Sterilization using moist air does not use chemicals or the like, and therefore has no effect on the human body and is preferable from an economic viewpoint.

  However, simply generating moist air cannot be used for sterilization efficiently. In order to generate moist air, water and a heating device that raises the temperature are required. Therefore, if the generated moist air is efficiently used for sterilization, these energy can be saved, which is further economically preferable. It can be said.

For this reason, all the generated humid air can be used for processing without waste, and energy-efficient processing can be performed.

  According to the fourth aspect of the present invention, since the cover material covering the humid air generating device is provided with the opening, the temperature of the humid air can be easily adjusted by changing the position, size, etc. of the opening. be able to. Therefore, the temperature of the humid air can be adjusted depending on the type of the object or the content of the process, and the optimum process corresponding to each object can be performed.

  According to the invention of claim 5, since the flow path of the humid air can be changed, the temperature can be controlled. Therefore, the temperature of the humid air can be adjusted according to the object or according to the processing content, and an optimum process corresponding to each object can be performed.

  This device comprises a humid air generating device covered with a cover material and a treatment space, and the humid air generating device includes a stored water tank, a heat source device for warming water in the water tank, and warmed water. The cover material covering the processing space is provided with an insertion port for an object, and the humid air generator and the processing space are hermetically sealed in the cover material to communicate with each other. In addition, the present invention is a processing apparatus using humid air that can reliably sterilize an object to be sterilized by using humid air without waste.

  FIG. 1 is a schematic sectional view of a processing apparatus using humid air according to the present invention. In the following, sterilization with moist air will be described as an example.

  The processing apparatus 1 using humid air is composed of a humid air generating apparatus 2 and a cover material 4 that covers the processing space 3 disposed in the upper part thereof. The humid air generator 2 is covered with, for example, a cylindrical cover material 5 and includes a fuel tank 6, a flame generator 7, a container 8, a water supply tank 9, and an ultrasonic transducer 10. Water from the water supply tank 9 is stored in the container 8 and an ultrasonic vibrator 10 is introduced.

  In this state, when a flame is generated in the flame generating section 7 using the fuel in the fuel tank 6, the water temperature in the container 8 rises. When the temperature is increased to about 60 ° C. to about 70 ° C., moisture is misted by the ultrasonic vibrator 10 to form water droplets. Furthermore, it can be misted at a high temperature to generate high-temperature humid air. Note that a cover material in which the cover materials 4 and 5 are integrated may be used.

  The humid air generated in this way flows into the processing space 3 in the upper part of the humid air generator 2 through the net 11 by the rising airflow. The sterilization target object 12 such as a finger or an object is placed on the net 11 in the processing space 3 through the opening 13 formed in the cover material 4. When the object to be sterilized is a finger or the like, it is inserted through the opening 13 and held in the processing space 3. In this processing space 3, sterilization with moist air is performed. If the opening 13 is provided with a door and the sterilization object 12 can be stored in the processing space 3, the door can be closed to seal the processing space 3.

  In this configuration, the processing space 3 is formed in the upper part of the container 8, and these are sealed and covered with the cover materials 4 and 5, so that the humid air is automatically contained in the processing space 3 by the rising air flow at the time of the temperature rise. Inflow. Therefore, no means for moving the humid air is required, and no energy is required for that purpose. For this reason, all the generated humid air can be used for sterilization without waste, and energy-efficient sterilization can be performed.

  If the length of the cover material 5 is adjusted in accordance with the type of the sterilization object 12 and the flow path of the humid air is changed, the temperature can be controlled. Moreover, the temperature of the humid air can be adjusted by providing the cover member 5 with the opening 14. In this case, the temperature of the humid air can be easily adjusted by changing the position and size of the opening 14. Therefore, the optimal sterilization according to various sterilization objects 12 can be performed. Moreover, even when humid air is used for cooking instead of sterilization, that is, when the treatment method is different from sterilization, the temperature can be adjusted by the above configuration to perform optimum cooking. That is, the optimum temperature adjustment according to the processing method can be performed.

  The flame generating unit 7 may be a thermal heater or the like as long as it can raise the water temperature in the container 8, and any device may be used as long as it is a heat source machine. In addition, any fuel such as liquid or gas may be put in the fuel tank 6 according to the type of the heat source device. When the moisture in the container 8 decreases, water is supplied by opening the valve 15 of the water supply tank 9. In particular, if a heat source device using combustion gas is used, a temperature drop due to latent heat of evaporation of mist generated by the humid air generator 2 can be prevented, so that the sterilization object 12 can be placed in the treatment space 3 while maintaining the sterilization capability of the humid air. This is preferable because it can be surely sterilized.

  In the above description, the sterilization action in the processing space 3 has been described as an example. However, if the sterilization object 12 is an object to be cooked, cooking using humid air can also be performed in the processing space 3. That is, the processing apparatus 1 processes an object in a humid air atmosphere made of mist, and can perform disinfection, cooking, drying, and the like.

  FIG. 2 is a schematic sectional view of another processing apparatus using humid air according to the present invention.

  In this embodiment, a venturi part 16 is formed on the upper part of the cover material 5 of the humid air generating device 2, and a pressure pump 17 is provided on the wet air flow path in the nozzle 18 provided on the upper part. When sterilization is performed by the processing apparatus 1 using the humid air, first, the water in the container 8 is warmed with heat from the flame generating unit 7 and vaporized. The vaporized water flows into the nozzle 18 from the venturi 16 by the rising airflow. Here, the pressure pump 17 pressure-feeds to the ejection port 19 which consists of a small hole. Therefore, the steam flowing into the nozzle 18 is granulated by the pressure pump 17 and becomes humid air. When this is ejected from the ejection port 19, the sterilization object 12 is sterilized with moist air.

  In this configuration, since the venturi portion 16 is formed at the upper portion of the container 8, the vaporized water automatically flows into the nozzle 18 by the rising airflow. Therefore, no power is required and no energy is required. Other configurations, operations, and effects are the same as those in FIG.
