Description

Air purification processing device {APPARATUS FOR PURIFYING AIR}

Embodiments of the present invention relate to air purification treatment techniques.

In general, a ventilation fan is installed in a bathroom to ventilate the inside of the bathroom. However, even if the ventilator is operated, only the air inside the bathroom can be ventilated, and the air inside the toilet hole of the toilet installed in the bathroom cannot be ventilated. In addition, even if the user flushes water after defecation in the bathroom, odors and germs remain and proliferate in the space inside the toilet hall. At this time, the odor and germs inside the toilet hole spread throughout the toilet and contaminate the air in the toilet. In addition, odors and germs inside the toilet hole spread to the entire house as well as the bathroom, contaminating the entire house air. As a result, the indoor environment becomes unsanitary, and there is a problem that the elderly or children are easily infected with germs.
