Description

本発明は、紫外線照射装置に関する。 The present invention relates to an ultraviolet irradiation device.

病院や介護施設等の病室や食堂施設において、ウイルス等の感染症の防止は非常に重要な課題である。そのため、薬液を用いた消毒作業が一般的であるが、作業中に消毒場所を閉鎖する必要があり、また、薬液を除去する必要もあるため、作業負担は大きい。これに対して、薬液を用いない殺菌消毒方法として、紫外線ランプを用いた殺菌消毒装置が考案されている（特許文献１参照）。 Prevention of infectious diseases such as viruses is a very important issue in hospital rooms and cafeteria facilities such as hospitals and long-term care facilities. Therefore, disinfection work using a chemical solution is common, but the work load is heavy because the disinfection site needs to be closed during the work and the chemical solution needs to be removed. On the other hand, as a sterilization and disinfection method that does not use a chemical solution, a sterilization and disinfection device using an ultraviolet lamp has been devised (see Patent Document 1).

特開平６－６３１０８号公報Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 6-63108

しかしながら、紫外線による殺菌は、紫外線がウイルス等に照射されることが必要である。そのため、例えば、カーペットのような表面が凸凹のフロアの場合、起毛部分の影に存在するウイルスに対しては紫外線による殺菌効果が著しく減少する。 However, sterilization with ultraviolet rays requires that the ultraviolet rays be irradiated with a virus or the like. Therefore, for example, in the case of a floor having an uneven surface such as a carpet, the bactericidal effect of ultraviolet rays is significantly reduced against the virus existing in the shadow of the raised portion.

本発明はこうした課題に鑑みてなされたものであり、その例示的な目的のひとつは、殺菌効果の高い新たな紫外線照射装置を提供することにある。 The present invention has been made in view of these problems, and one of its exemplary purposes is to provide a new ultraviolet irradiation device having a high bactericidal effect.

上記課題を解決するために、本発明のある態様の紫外線照射装置は、開口部を有する筐体と、筐体の内部に設けられており、紫外線を発する紫外線発生部と、筐体の内部に設けられており、筐体内に風を生じさせる風発生部と、を備える。開口部は、紫外線が照射される照射対象が配置されるように設けられており、紫外線発生部は、開口部に向けて紫外線を照射するように配置されており、風発生部は、照射対象に当たる風を生じさせるように構成されている。 In order to solve the above problems, the ultraviolet irradiation device of an embodiment of the present invention is provided in a housing having an opening and inside the housing, and is provided in an ultraviolet generating portion that emits ultraviolet rays and inside the housing. It is provided and includes a wind generating portion that generates wind in the housing. The opening is provided so that an irradiation target to be irradiated with ultraviolet rays is arranged, the ultraviolet generation part is arranged so as to irradiate the ultraviolet rays toward the opening, and the wind generation part is an irradiation target. It is configured to generate a wind that hits.

例えば、紫外線が照射される照射対象がカーペットのような起毛性の生地の場合、その隙間に入り込んだウイルスや細菌、微生物等（以下、「ウイルス」という。）には直接紫外線が届かないことがある。この態様によると、開口部に配置された照射対象に対して風を当てることで、照射対象に付着していたウイルスのような殺菌対象が移動し、それまで紫外線が届かないところに存在していたウイルスに対しても紫外線を照射することができる。その結果、殺菌効果の高い紫外線照射装置を実現できる。 For example, when the irradiation target to be irradiated with ultraviolet rays is a brushed fabric such as a carpet, the ultraviolet rays may not directly reach the viruses, bacteria, microorganisms, etc. (hereinafter referred to as "viruses") that have entered the gaps. be. According to this aspect, by blowing wind on the irradiation target placed in the opening, the sterilization target such as a virus adhering to the irradiation target moves and exists in a place where ultraviolet rays do not reach until then. It is also possible to irradiate the virus with ultraviolet rays. As a result, it is possible to realize an ultraviolet irradiation device having a high bactericidal effect.

開口部は、照射対象で閉塞されるように形成されていてもよい。これにより、照射対象に付着していたウイルスが風により開口部から外部へ飛散することを抑制できる。 The opening may be formed so as to be closed by the irradiation target. As a result, it is possible to prevent the virus adhering to the irradiation target from scattering from the opening to the outside due to the wind.

開口部を囲む筐体の内壁は、紫外線を開口部に向けて反射する反射部を有してもよい。これにより、紫外線が無駄なく照射対象に照射される。 The inner wall of the housing surrounding the opening may have a reflective portion that reflects ultraviolet light toward the opening. As a result, the ultraviolet rays are irradiated to the irradiation target without waste.

筐体の内壁は、酸化チタンが塗布されていてもよい。これにより、消臭やウイルスの殺菌を更に効率良く行える。 The inner wall of the housing may be coated with titanium oxide. As a result, deodorization and virus sterilization can be performed more efficiently.

風発生部は、ファンと、ファンが発する風の向きを変える風向変更機構と、を有してもよい。これにより、照射対象の広い範囲に対して、風を一様に当てることができる。 The wind generating unit may have a fan and a wind direction changing mechanism for changing the direction of the wind generated by the fan. As a result, the wind can be uniformly applied to a wide range of the irradiation target.

紫外線発生部は、ピーク波長が２５０～３００ｎｍの範囲にある紫外線を発してもよい。これにより、ウイルスを不活化するとともに、照射対象が紫外線で劣化することを抑制できる。 The ultraviolet generation unit may emit ultraviolet rays having a peak wavelength in the range of 250 to 300 nm. As a result, the virus can be inactivated and the irradiation target can be suppressed from being deteriorated by ultraviolet rays.

筐体は、開口部と紫外線発生部との間に、風発生部が生じさせた風が照射対象に当たることで該照射対象から離間したウイルスを紫外線で殺菌する殺菌室が設けられていてもよい。これにより、照射対象から離間したウイルスを効率良く殺菌できる。 The housing may be provided with a sterilization chamber between the opening and the ultraviolet generating portion to sterilize the virus separated from the irradiation target by the wind generated by the wind generating portion hitting the irradiation target. .. As a result, the virus separated from the irradiation target can be efficiently sterilized.

筐体は、殺菌室の開口部がある側とは反対側の領域に予備室が設けられており、風発生部は、殺菌室と予備室とを隔てる隔壁部に設けられており、予備室は、風発生部を経由して殺菌室から流入したウイルスに紫外線を照射する予備紫外線発生部が設けられていてもよい。これにより、予備室に流入したウイルスも殺菌できる。 The housing is provided with a spare chamber in the area opposite to the side where the opening of the sterilization chamber is located, and the wind generating portion is provided in the partition wall portion separating the sterilization chamber and the spare chamber. May be provided with a preliminary ultraviolet generation unit that irradiates the virus flowing from the sterilization chamber via the wind generation unit with ultraviolet rays. As a result, the virus that has flowed into the reserve chamber can also be sterilized.

予備室は、殺菌室に対して正圧になるように構成されていてもよい。これにより、殺菌室から予備室へウイルスが侵入しにくくなり、殺菌室でウイルスを効率良く殺菌できる。 The spare chamber may be configured to have a positive pressure with respect to the sterilization chamber. This makes it difficult for the virus to invade from the sterilization chamber to the preliminary chamber, and the virus can be efficiently sterilized in the sterilization chamber.

なお、以上の構成要素の任意の組合せ、本発明の表現を方法、装置、システムなどの間で変換したものもまた、本発明の態様として有効である。 It should be noted that any combination of the above components and the conversion of the expression of the present invention between methods, devices, systems and the like are also effective as aspects of the present invention.

本発明によれば、殺菌効果の高い紫外線照射装置を実現できる。 According to the present invention, it is possible to realize an ultraviolet irradiation device having a high bactericidal effect.

本実施の形態に係る紫外線照射装置の概略構成の断面図である。It is sectional drawing of the schematic structure of the ultraviolet irradiation apparatus which concerns on this embodiment.

以下、本発明の実施の形態について図面を参照して説明する。なお、図面の説明において同一の要素には同一の符号を付し、重複する説明を適宜省略する。また、各図面における各構成要素の寸法比は、必ずしも実際の紫外線照射装置の寸法比と一致しない。また、以下に述べる構成は例示であり、本発明の範囲を何ら限定するものではない。 Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In the description of the drawings, the same elements are designated by the same reference numerals, and duplicate description will be omitted as appropriate. Further, the dimensional ratio of each component in each drawing does not necessarily match the dimensional ratio of the actual ultraviolet irradiation device. Further, the configuration described below is an example and does not limit the scope of the present invention at all.

図１は、本実施の形態に係る紫外線照射装置の概略構成の断面図である。図１に示す紫外線照射装置１０は、開口部１２を有する筐体１４と、筐体１４に設けられた把持部１５と、筐体１４の内部に設けられており、紫外線Ｌを発する紫外線発生部としての複数のＬＥＤ１６と、筐体１４の内部に設けられており、筐体内に風を生じさせる風発生部１８と、を備える。紫外線照射装置１０は、把持部１５をユーザが掴んで、殺菌対象である床やベッド、家具等まで移動することで、簡便に紫外線照射による殺菌ができる。 FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view of a schematic configuration of an ultraviolet irradiation device according to the present embodiment. The ultraviolet irradiation device 10 shown in FIG. 1 is provided in a housing 14 having an opening 12, a grip portion 15 provided in the housing 14, and an ultraviolet light generating unit that emits ultraviolet L. A plurality of LEDs 16 provided as above, and a wind generating unit 18 provided inside the housing 14 to generate wind in the housing. The ultraviolet irradiation device 10 can be easily sterilized by ultraviolet irradiation by the user grasping the grip portion 15 and moving the grip portion 15 to the floor, bed, furniture, or the like to be sterilized.

開口部１２は、紫外線Ｌが照射される照射対象としてのカーペット２０が配置されるように設けられている。アレイ状に配列された複数のＬＥＤ１６のそれぞれは、開口部１２に向けて紫外線Ｌを照射するように配置されている。これにより、カーペット２０に対するムラの少ない紫外線照射が可能となる。少ない風発生部１８は、カーペット２０に当たる風を生じさせるように構成されている。 The opening 12 is provided so that the carpet 20 as an irradiation target to which the ultraviolet L is irradiated is arranged. Each of the plurality of LEDs 16 arranged in an array is arranged so as to irradiate the ultraviolet L toward the opening 12. This makes it possible to irradiate the carpet 20 with ultraviolet rays with less unevenness. The small wind generating portion 18 is configured to generate a wind that hits the carpet 20.

紫外線Ｌが照射される照射対象がカーペット２０のような起毛性（パイル２０ａ）の生地の場合、その隙間に入り込んだウイルスには直接紫外線Ｌが届かない領域がある。そこで、本実施の形態に係る紫外線照射装置１０は、開口部１２に配置されたカーペット２０に対して風Ｗを当てることで、カーペット２０に付着していたウイルスのような殺菌対象が移動し、それまで紫外線Ｌが届かないところに存在していたウイルスに対しても紫外線Ｌを照射することができる。その結果、殺菌効果の高い紫外線照射装置１０を実現できる。 When the irradiation target to be irradiated with the ultraviolet L is a brushed (pile 20a) fabric such as a carpet 20, there is a region where the ultraviolet L does not directly reach the virus that has entered the gap. Therefore, in the ultraviolet irradiation device 10 according to the present embodiment, by applying wind W to the carpet 20 arranged in the opening 12, a sterilization target such as a virus adhering to the carpet 20 moves. It is possible to irradiate the ultraviolet L to the virus that had existed in a place where the ultraviolet L did not reach until then. As a result, it is possible to realize an ultraviolet irradiation device 10 having a high bactericidal effect.

開口部１２は、カーペット２０で閉塞されるように周囲の端面１４ａが全周にわたり平坦になるように形成されている。また、端面１４ａは、カーペット２０に筐体１４を押し付けた際に筐体内部のウイルスが外部に漏れ出さないように、照射対象の形状に追従しやすい弾力性のある密着部材で構成されているとよい。密着部材は、例えば、ウイルスが通らないが空気は通す可撓性のフィルターやゴムである。これにより、カーペット２０に付着していたウイルスが風Ｗにより開口部１２から外部へ飛散することを抑制できる。 The opening 12 is formed so that the peripheral end surface 14a is flat over the entire circumference so as to be closed by the carpet 20. Further, the end face 14a is composed of an elastic close contact member that easily follows the shape of the irradiation target so that the virus inside the housing does not leak to the outside when the housing 14 is pressed against the carpet 20. It is good. The close contact member is, for example, a flexible filter or rubber that does not allow viruses to pass through but allows air to pass through. As a result, it is possible to prevent the virus adhering to the carpet 20 from being scattered from the opening 12 to the outside by the wind W.

開口部１２を囲む筐体１４の内壁１４ｂは、紫外線Ｌを開口部１２に向けて反射する反射部１４ｃを有している。反射部１４ｃは、例えば、純アルミニウム（ＪＩＳ１０００番台）の表面を電解研磨したものが好ましい。このように構成された反射部１４ｃは、紫外線を効率良く反射できるため、紫外線が無駄なく照射対象に照射される。 The inner wall 14b of the housing 14 surrounding the opening 12 has a reflecting portion 14c that reflects ultraviolet rays L toward the opening 12. The reflective portion 14c is preferably, for example, one in which the surface of pure aluminum (JIS1000 series) is electrolytically polished. Since the reflective portion 14c configured in this way can efficiently reflect ultraviolet rays, the ultraviolet rays are radiated to the irradiation target without waste.

また、筐体１４の内壁１４ｂは、酸化チタンが塗布されていてもよい。酸化チタンは紫外線の照射により活性酸素を生じるため、消臭やウイルスの殺菌を更に効率良く行える。 Further, the inner wall 14b of the housing 14 may be coated with titanium oxide. Since titanium oxide generates active oxygen by irradiation with ultraviolet rays, deodorization and virus sterilization can be performed more efficiently.

風発生部１８は、ファンと、ファンが発する風の向きを変える風向変更機構と、を有している。風向変更機構は、例えば、扇風機の首振り機構や空調機のルーバー機構である。これにより、カーペット２０の広い範囲に対して、風Ｗを一様に当てることができる。また、ファンの向きは、カーペット２０に対して上方から直接吹き当てる向きが好ましい。また、風発生部１８が発生させる風は、カーペット２０に直接向かう旋回流が好ましい。これにより、パイル２０ａ自体を動かし、紫外線が直接届きにくいパイル２０ａの根本部分に存在するウイルスを殺菌できる。 The wind generation unit 18 has a fan and a wind direction changing mechanism for changing the direction of the wind generated by the fan. The wind direction changing mechanism is, for example, a swing mechanism of an electric fan or a louver mechanism of an air conditioner. As a result, the wind W can be uniformly applied to a wide range of the carpet 20. Further, the direction of the fan is preferably the direction in which the fan is directly blown onto the carpet 20 from above. Further, the wind generated by the wind generating unit 18 is preferably a swirling flow directly toward the carpet 20. As a result, the pile 20a itself can be moved, and the virus existing at the root portion of the pile 20a, which is difficult for ultraviolet rays to reach directly, can be sterilized.

本実施の形態に係るＬＥＤ１６は、ピーク波長が２５０～３００ｎｍの範囲、好ましくは２６０～２９０ｎｍの範囲にある紫外線を発する。一般的にはウイルスの不活化には波長が短い紫外線が有効であるが、波長が短い紫外線は樹脂や繊維のような有機物を劣化させることがある。そこで、ピーク波長が２５０～３００ｎｍの範囲にあるＬＥＤ１６を用いることで、ウイルスを不活化するとともに、カーペット２０が紫外線で劣化することを抑制できる。 The LED 16 according to the present embodiment emits ultraviolet rays having a peak wavelength in the range of 250 to 300 nm, preferably 260 to 290 nm. In general, ultraviolet rays having a short wavelength are effective for inactivating viruses, but ultraviolet rays having a short wavelength may deteriorate organic substances such as resins and fibers. Therefore, by using the LED 16 having a peak wavelength in the range of 250 to 300 nm, it is possible to inactivate the virus and suppress the deterioration of the carpet 20 by ultraviolet rays.

筐体１４は、開口部１２とＬＥＤ１６との間に、風発生部１８が生じさせた風Ｗがカーペット２０に当たることでカーペット２０（パイル２０ａ）から離間したウイルスを紫外線Ｌで殺菌する殺菌室２２が設けられている。これにより、カーペット２０から離間したウイルスを効率良く殺菌できる。 The housing 14 has a sterilization chamber 22 that sterilizes a virus separated from the carpet 20 (pile 20a) by ultraviolet rays L when the wind W generated by the wind generating portion 18 hits the carpet 20 between the opening 12 and the LED 16. Is provided. As a result, the virus separated from the carpet 20 can be efficiently sterilized.

筐体１４は、殺菌室２２の開口部１２がある側とは反対側の領域に予備室２４が設けられている。風発生部１８は、殺菌室２２と予備室２４とを隔てる隔壁部２６に設けられている。予備室２４は、風発生部１８を経由して殺菌室２２から流入したウイルスに紫外線を照射する予備ＬＥＤ２８が、隔壁部３０に設けられている。 The housing 14 is provided with a spare chamber 24 in a region opposite to the side where the opening 12 of the sterilization chamber 22 is located. The wind generating portion 18 is provided in the partition wall portion 26 that separates the sterilizing chamber 22 and the preliminary chamber 24. In the spare chamber 24, a spare LED 28 that irradiates the virus flowing from the sterilization chamber 22 via the wind generating portion 18 with ultraviolet rays is provided in the partition wall portion 30.

これにより、予備室２４に流入したウイルスも殺菌できる。なお、予備ＬＥＤ２８が発する紫外線Ｌ’は、隔壁部２６に照射され、カーペット２０に届かない。そのため、カーペット２０の劣化を考慮せずに予備ＬＥＤ２８が発する紫外線の波長を設定できる。換言すると、殺菌室２２に設けられているＬＥＤ１６が発する紫外線Ｌのピーク波長よりも短く、ウイルスの不活化により効果が高い波長の紫外線を発する予備ＬＥＤ２８を選択できる。このように、殺菌室２２に加えて予備室２４でもウイルスに紫外線を照射することで、ウイルスを確実に不活化できる。 As a result, the virus that has flowed into the reserve chamber 24 can also be sterilized. The ultraviolet L'emitted by the spare LED 28 irradiates the partition wall 26 and does not reach the carpet 20. Therefore, the wavelength of the ultraviolet rays emitted by the spare LED 28 can be set without considering the deterioration of the carpet 20. In other words, a spare LED 28 that emits ultraviolet rays having a wavelength shorter than the peak wavelength of ultraviolet rays L emitted by the LED 16 provided in the sterilization chamber 22 and having a high effect by inactivating the virus can be selected. In this way, the virus can be reliably inactivated by irradiating the virus with ultraviolet rays not only in the sterilization chamber 22 but also in the spare chamber 24.

予備室２４は、殺菌室２２に対して正圧になるように構成されている。具体的には、不図示のコンプレッサにより予備室２４内を殺菌室２２に対して正圧に維持している。これにより、殺菌室２２から予備室２４へウイルスが侵入しにくくなり、殺菌室２２でウイルスを効率良く殺菌できる。 The spare chamber 24 is configured to have a positive pressure with respect to the sterilization chamber 22. Specifically, a compressor (not shown) keeps the inside of the spare chamber 24 at a positive pressure with respect to the sterilization chamber 22. This makes it difficult for the virus to invade from the sterilization chamber 22 to the reserve chamber 24, and the virus can be efficiently sterilized in the sterilization chamber 22.

隔壁部２６の殺菌室２２側の表面には、アルミニウムからなる反射部材２６ａが設けられている。また、隔壁部２６の予備室２４側の表面には、アルミニウムからなる反射部材２６ｂが設けられている。なお、反射部材としては、紫外線の反射率が高いものであればよく、例えば、ＰＴＦＥであってもよい。これにより、殺菌室２２および予備室２４の空間内において、ウイルスに対して紫外線が効率良く照射される。なお、隔壁部３０の予備ＬＥＤ２８が搭載されている側と反対側の領域３２には、風発生部１８の動作、ＬＥＤ１６および予備ＬＥＤ２８の点消灯を制御する制御部３４が配置されている。 A reflective member 26a made of aluminum is provided on the surface of the partition wall 26 on the sterilization chamber 22 side. Further, a reflective member 26b made of aluminum is provided on the surface of the partition wall portion 26 on the spare chamber 24 side. The reflective member may be any one as long as it has a high reflectance of ultraviolet rays, and may be, for example, PTFE. As a result, ultraviolet rays are efficiently irradiated to the virus in the spaces of the sterilization chamber 22 and the preliminary chamber 24. A control unit 34 for controlling the operation of the wind generating unit 18 and turning on and off the LED 16 and the spare LED 28 is arranged in the area 32 of the partition wall portion 30 on the side opposite to the side on which the spare LED 28 is mounted.

（変形例）
前述の紫外線照射装置１０は、殺菌室２２以外に予備室２４が設けられているが、予備室がない構成であってもよい。その場合、風発生部１８は、殺菌室２２内に対流を起こすように配置すれば、殺菌室２２から空気が外部へ漏れ出る心配がない。 (Modification example)
The above-mentioned ultraviolet irradiation device 10 is provided with a spare chamber 24 in addition to the sterilization chamber 22, but may be configured without a spare chamber. In that case, if the wind generating unit 18 is arranged so as to cause convection in the sterilization chamber 22, there is no concern that air leaks from the sterilization chamber 22 to the outside.
