Abstract

PURPOSE: To provide tablewares, musical instruments and microphones having antimicrobial and anti-metal allergic properties. CONSTITUTION: The tablewares, musical instruments and microphones described above consist of titanium or titanium alloy having an anodically oxidized layers on the surfaces. These anodically oxidized layers generate the active oxygen playing antimicrobial and other effects under irradiation with UV rays. Electrons (-) and holes (+) are generated in the titanium oxide and the holes change the oxygen in the air to active oxygen (OH radicals) when the titanium oxide receive UV rays (the light of a fluorescent light is equally well). This active oxygen decomposes many chemical materials known to be hardly decomposable to hydrogen and carbon dioxide. Sterilization and decomposition of malodorous components are induced in the process thereof. Since the anodically oxidized layers of the titanium are an extremely stable material layers, the layers are hardly ionized.

The present invention relates to a fork, spoon,
The present invention relates to dishes such as plates, cups, mugs, pots, chopsticks, and cutting boards, musical instruments such as harmonica, whistle, and trumpet, as well as a microphone mouthpiece. In particular, the present invention relates to tableware and musical instruments having properties such as antibacterial properties, malodor decomposition properties, and antiallergic properties. In addition, cooking utensils such as a pot and a cutting board are collectively referred to as tableware in the present specification.

The proliferation of bacteria on the surfaces of tableware and cooking utensils may be a problem. For example, staphylococci, salmonella, etc. may grow on the surface of the cutting board, the fresh food cooked on the staphylococcus may attach to the bacteria, and the bacteria may grow in the food to cause food poisoning. Even if it does not reach to that point, the proliferation of various bacteria may make the tableware odorous and the food muzzle. In order to prevent such a situation, an antibacterial cutting board made by kneading and molding an antibacterial agent such as silver, copper or zinc into hard plastic is sold.

Such bacterial propagation can also occur on the surfaces of metal spoons, forks, plates, cups and the like. There is no problem of bacterial growth if the dishes are sterilized with hot water every time they are used. However, doing so each time is labor-intensive and energy-intensive and unrealistic. Further, in the homes of disabled persons, the elderly and students, dishwashing may be incomplete. In that case, bacterial propagation on the surface of the tableware is likely to occur.

The above-mentioned problems associated with bacterial propagation also exist in musical instruments such as harmonica, whistle, and trumpet that are handled by mouth, and also in microphone mouthpieces. That is,
Often, the saliva in the mouth and breath adheres to these musical instruments and the like, bacteria are propagated, and a bad odor is generated. By the way, recently, metal allergy associated with the use of jewelry such as earrings has become a problem. Metal allergies can cause itching, irritation, or blistering on the skin where the metal touches the skin. The mechanism of metal allergy is that the metal dissolves and ionizes and binds to the protein in the skin, and the skin protein causes a rejection reaction to the metal-plated epidermal protein while it is repeated many times. It is said that it causes dermatitis.

Metals that are prone to metal allergies are said to be mercury, nickel, cobalt, tin, chromium and copper. It has also been reported that noble metals such as platinum and gold that are difficult to ionize may cause metal allergies. Moreover, even if a metal allergic person understands the metal causing the allergy of his / her own, due to the similarity of the atomic structure, the person having Ni as the cause is Co and Au.
It is said that there is a cross-reaction that occurs not only with one causative metal but also with other metal ions. It is extremely difficult to select and judge accessories materials.
