Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to an ultraviolet disinfection system,

Embodiments of the present invention relate to a vehicle ultraviolet sterilization system and method capable of disinfecting a vehicle interior using ultraviolet rays.

As the society is advanced and the indoor living time of modern people is increasing, problems such as lack of exercise, irregular eating habits, and stress are occurring. The immune system of modern people has been weakened and allergic diseases such as atopic dermatitis, rhinitis, asthma and conjunctivitis have been rapidly increasing.

At present, 30% of the population in Korea has allergic diseases, and the ratio is increasing every year. Fine suspended solids, fungi, and insects that live in fine dusts, furniture, bedding, etc. that enter the room are the main cause of allergic diseases. Recently, Korea's climate has changed to summer temperature near the sub-troposphere in May of each year, and the pests including ticks have increased. House dust mites also have the greatest impact on human immune systems.

House dust mites are microscopic insects of about 0.3 mm in size, so they are not visible directly to human eyes. They often live on horny or dandruff, which is the skin of a person, and they are called "skin predators." The optimal environment for house dust mite is 25 ~ 28 degrees and 70 ~ 80% humidity. In the end, most places where people live can happen at any time because ticks are a good place to live.

Thus, the keratin produced from one person provides an environment in which the ticks can sufficiently live in the activity radius of the person. They live together in places where people are active, such as bed mattresses, car seats, quilts, pillows, carpets, and cause various diseases such as itching and allergy.

It takes about 2-3 weeks from an egg to an adult to be an adult. The most common type of mite is a bird (mite) It is estimated that house dust mites have evolved to adapt to the human living environment as opposed to mammalian nests.The most important influence on home dust mites is humidity, 70 to 80% of body weight is water It can not ingest water directly, it absorbs atmospheric moisture and reproduces.

According to a study on the avoidance effect of loess and charcoal cotton on house dust mites, it is said that the reaction as a direct allergen is made by the body of house dust mite. It also causes various damages through the mites. The main damage is as follows.

The first is allergic rhinitis, which accounts for 1/5 of the total population in Korea. The second is skin atopy. In the past, when the external activity time was long, the immune system was activated, but recently, the immune system to prevent atopic dermatitis was weakened due to the increase in indoor residence time with various chemical substances, and the increase in the number of children suffering from atopic dermatitis Respectively. The third is an allergic respiratory disease. If it becomes chronic, symptoms like asthma appear. There is a risk that children and adolescents may lead to tooth closure imbalance, facial deformity, and learning disabilities.

Places that cause these diseases due to habitat of house dust mite have been recently issued. There are car seats, subway seats, beds, sofas, movie theaters and so on, which have been used without any special consciousness. It is known that about 80% of the causes of modern illnesses (atopic, allergic skin diseases, asthma, conjunctivitis) are caused by house dust mite that is present in bed, sofa and the like. The most abundant house dust mite bodies and suspended substances in the bed go into the mouth and nose while we sleep, causing various diseases.

Accordingly, in the present invention, the system environment is set as the internal environment of the automobile by focusing on this fact, and a mite disinfection system is designed as a part of the clean system. Automobiles are one of the most closely related systems of human activity, as it is an optimized means of mobility. Due to the nature of modern people, sweat on the seat of the car, shed food, often do not clean properly. In addition, due to the nature of our country, which has four seasons, it is easily wetted or dried by the external environment, and the ventilation activity inside the car drops due to the frequently used air conditioner or heater. In other words, car seats are inevitably polluted spaces, and it is time to take measures against them in connection with various habits of modern people.

On the other hand, in Comparative Examples 1 to 4, But has poor properties in terms of pencil hardness, heat resistance and flexibility.

The control unit 120 controls the ultraviolet ray generator 110 to operate in either an automatic mode or a manual mode.

The control unit 120 may include an initialization function for initializing all settings related to the operation of the ultraviolet ray generator 110, a period for selecting and operating the automatic disinfection period of the ultraviolet ray generator 110, A setting function, and an operation time function for setting an operation start time and an end time of the ultraviolet ray generator 110. [

Accordingly, when operating in the automatic mode, the ultraviolet ray generator 110 can perform ultraviolet ray sterilization processing inside the vehicle through a series of operations according to the initialization function, the cycle setting function, and the operation time function.

Here, the initialization function is a function of initializing all settings, and returns to a default value to reset the starting point of the system to zero. The period setting function is a function that can change the automatic sterilization cycle according to the user's preference. It can not be modified on a daily basis, and can be changed in three (High) (60 days), Mid (45 days) and Low One can select a sterilization cycle to proceed with system operation. The system may be operated every day due to carelessness. In order to prevent such an operation, the operation cycle function divided into three stages (High, Mid, Low) . ≪ / RTI > The operation time function is a function for setting a system start time and an operation (end) time from a day in which a default value is set, and enables the ultraviolet sterilization system to be operated according to a system period designated by a user.

Meanwhile, when operating in the passive mode, the controller 120 may provide an operation time function for setting an operation start time and an end time of the ultraviolet ray generator 110.

Accordingly, when operating in the passive mode, the ultraviolet ray generator 110 operates according to the operation time function to perform ultraviolet ray disinfection inside the vehicle.

When the operation of the ultraviolet ray generator 110 is completed, the controller 120 may guide the ultraviolet ray generator 110 to finish the ultraviolet ray disinfection process. Here, the completion time of the operation of the ultraviolet ray generator 110 may be determined based on the end time set by the operation time function, and the controller 120 may perform the finishing step in conjunction with the completion of the operation have.

That is, upon completion of the operation of the ultraviolet ray generator 110, the controller 120 transmits a voice message related to the cleaning of the mites inside the vehicle according to the ultraviolet ray generator 110 to the speaker 150 or a mobile terminal 101 of a user associated with the vehicle, to provide the cleaning notification service to the user.

Here, the control unit 120 can access the mobile terminal 101 through the communication unit 160 and transmit the voice message related to the cleaning. The communication unit 160 may communicate with the mobile terminal 101 based on a communication protocol such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, NFC, or the like.

The display unit 130 may provide a mode selection screen for operating the ultraviolet ray generator 110 in either the automatic mode or the manual mode. When one of the modes is selected through the mode selection screen, the ultraviolet ray generator 110 can operate according to the selected mode.

The user (vehicle driver) may board the vehicle after the ultraviolet ray generator 110 is completed. In this case, the control unit 120 may output a text message indicating that the disinfection process of the vehicle interior has been completed through the display unit 130.

The text message output to the display unit 130 may disappear from the screen according to the confirmation input of the user, and may disappear automatically after a predetermined time elapses even without the confirmation input.

The control unit 120 may transmit the text message to the mobile terminal 101 through the communication unit 160 when the text message automatically disappears from the screen of the display unit 130. [

For reference, whether or not the user has boarded the vehicle can be sensed by the sensor 140. The control unit 120 may output the text message through the display unit 130 based on a sensing signal of the sensor 140. Detection of the presence or absence of a vehicle by the sensor 140 will be described later.

The user can perform a finishing step of cleaning the dead mites remaining in the vehicle interior through the cleaning notification service. At this time, when the vacuum cleaner installed in the indoor space of the vehicle is released for a predetermined period of time, the control unit 120 outputs a text message indicating that cleaning is completed through the display unit 130, And output a voice message to the speaker 150 or the mobile terminal 101 of the vehicle.

Whether or not the cleaner has been removed from the cleaner cradle for a predetermined period of time can be detected by a sensor installed on the cleaner cradle. When the control unit 120 receives the detection signal from the sensor installed in the cleaner stand, it is regarded that the cleaner has been removed from the cleaner stand for a predetermined period of time. The control unit 120 determines that the cleaning operation is completed and displays a text message or a voice message Can be output.

In another embodiment, the vacuum cleaner may be provided under the driver's seat, and the vacuum cleaner may be equipped with a fine filter. In the absence of a fine filter, only about 50% of the dead body can not be filtered out. Instead, the filter may have the adverse effect of spreading allergens in the air.

Hereinafter, the cleaning notification service will be described in detail.

Completion of the system operation does not complete the sterilization process. The bodies are still in the seat, so physical cleaning is necessary. Therefore, it is necessary to notify the user whether cleaning is performed for the internal carcass processing. After the system operation has been completed, if the user returns to the vehicle, a message indicating that the sterilization process is completed is displayed.

In addition, it is recognized that the sterilization is completed and the carcass cleaning is not performed through the mobile display & button (Mobile Display & Button) using an application such as mobile, so that it is recognized that physical cleaning is necessary. Mobile alarm messages have two options. A function of receiving a message again after a predetermined period by turning off or re-sending the message, and a message ending function.

A message re-transmitted after a desired period of time can be confirmed simultaneously on a vehicle display and a mobile terminal. Portable vacuum cleaners can be placed in a minimal storage space next to the driver's seat. It is judged that the carcass cleaning is carried out when the cleaner is taken out from the cleaner cradle for a certain period after the sterilization is completed, and it can be judged that the opposite case is not performed.

On the other hand, the sensor 140 can check presence or absence of a person aboard the vehicle. The sensor 140 may include at least one of a thermal sensor, a motion sensor, and a weight sensor.

A system capable of confirming the presence of a person inside the vehicle so that the driver can not operate the vehicle ultraviolet sterilization processing system 100 in a state in which the driver forgets to have a child (infant or infant) or a passenger boarded in the car . In an embodiment of the present invention, such a system can be constructed through the sensor 140.

The sensor 140 may transmit a detection signal to the controller 120 when it senses that a person is present in the vehicle. When the control unit 120 receives the detection signal, the control unit 120 determines that a person is present on the vehicle, and transmits a voice message to the speaker 140 or the mobile terminal 101 Can be output.

For example, in the case of the weight sensor, an object having a weight of 5 kg or more, which obstructs the irradiation of ultraviolet rays, can be detected even at a part of the seat seat. Accordingly, Thereby preventing the accident, and at the same time, increasing the efficiency of sterilization. In one embodiment of the present invention, the article may interfere with sterilization on the seat seat, since the seat sheet is substantially sterilized.

Meanwhile, the vehicle ultraviolet sterilization system 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention may further include an ultraviolet ray film (not shown).

The ultraviolet ray film may be attached to the window of the vehicle so as to block ultraviolet rays generated from the ultraviolet ray generator 110 from passing through the window of the vehicle.

If the window of the vehicle is left open during the sterilization process, even if the ultraviolet film is attached to the window, ultraviolet rays may be released from the vehicle and the sterilizing effect may be deteriorated. In an embodiment of the present invention, A window of the vehicle can be controlled to be closed by executing a full automatic power window function in which the window is automatically lifted through the control unit 120 when the window of the vehicle is open. The controller 120 can execute the full auto power window function within a predetermined time period even when the vehicle is not started.

For reference, the control unit 120 may be implemented as a digital dashboard in the present embodiment. Currently, many devices inside the car are operated through the touch on the display. In the case of a digital dashboard solution for vehicles using TEXAS Instrument (TI) with DLP (Digital Light Processing) technology, this is a representative model showing the internal environment of a vehicle where buttons are disappearing from the display. In the case of the dashboard display, the touch screen is installed along the curve of the entire console surface. In the case of the conventional LCD, not only this type of curved surface can be realized, but also the cost is increased when it is manufactured in a large size. But with TI's DLP system, it can be extended to any size and shape, including curved surfaces, and the touch and screen can be integrated to provide convenience. Accordingly, in the present embodiment, the controller 120 may be implemented as a digital dashboard for vehicles using DLP technology in TI.

According to one embodiment of the present invention, the dust mite living in a car can be eradicated periodically or autonomously by a user, thereby preventing disease damage caused by a tick. Also, if you use the tolerance time appropriately, you will have no trouble in everyday life, and you will get efficient results with minimal effort.

In addition, it is possible to expand the system to public buses, subways, movie theaters, etc., which have the same or more serious problems as those of automobiles due to the use of cloths in seats and the like. Thus, the system for systematic mites and bacteria disinfection , It is possible to reduce the number of ticks in the whole society and help to prevent infectious diseases.

As a side effect, it is possible to sterilize and disinfect small household items as well as vehicle seats by adding a device capable of storing clothes, portable articles, etc. without putting weight on the seat such as hanger, Thus helping to reduce the number of ticks in the house as well as in the car.
