Abstract

The present invention relates to an isolation system capable of sterilizing an individual space and controlling ventilation. The isolation system comprises: a housing having a sealed isolation space to isolate an infected patient; a hydrogen peroxide vapor supply part supplying hydrogen peroxide vapor to the isolation space and sterilizing the isolation space; a ventilation part discharging internal air of the isolation space in which sterilization is completed to the outside; and a control part controlling the hydrogen peroxide vapor supply part and the ventilation part. According to the present invention, the isolation space for isolating the infected patient can be sterilized and individually controlled so manpower for sterilization work can be reduced and exposure to an infected environment of a sterilization worker can be minimized.

Description

[0001] The present invention relates to an isolation system capable of individually sterilizing and ventilating,

The present invention relates to an isolation system capable of individually sterilizing and ventilating control, and more particularly, to an isolation system capable of controlling individual sterilization and ventilation, .

In general, it is very important to isolate patients infected with MERS, SARS, and AI, including multidrug-resistant bacteria, from the outside to prevent secondary infection.

To this end, a separate isolation space for isolating an infected patient, which requires isolation from the outside, is conventionally provided to prevent the occurrence of a second infection by an infected patient.

Conventionally, when sterilization operation of the isolation space in which the infected patient has been isolated is required, the operator puts protective equipment directly into the isolation space and manually performs the sterilization operation.

However, when the operator wears the protective equipment and performs the sterilization operation manually, as described above, there is a risk of exposure to the second infection during the wearing and dismantling of the protective equipment, and the number of workers There is an economically inefficient problem.

In addition, since the sterilization operation is performed manually, a blind spot in the sterilization area that is not reachable by the operator can be generated.

For this reason, there is a need for an isolation system that minimizes manpower for sterilization and minimizes exposure to the infectious environment of the sterilant.

Disclosure of Invention Technical Problem [8] Accordingly, the present invention has been made keeping in mind the above problems occurring in the prior art, and it is an object of the present invention to provide an isolation system capable of individually sterilizing and controlling ventilation, have.

According to an aspect of the present invention, there is provided a sterilizing apparatus comprising: a housing having a closed isolation space for isolating an infected patient; a hydrogen peroxide vapor supply unit for sterilizing the isolation space by supplying hydrogen peroxide vapor to the isolation space; And a control unit for controlling the hydrogen peroxide vapor supply unit and the ventilation unit. The isolation system can be sterilized and ventilated individually.

The hydrogen peroxide vapor supply unit may include a hydrogen peroxide vapor generator installed outside the housing and a supply pipe connected to the hydrogen peroxide vapor generator and extending to the inside of the housing and a supply pipe disposed at a predetermined distance from the supply pipe, A spray nozzle for spraying the hydrogen peroxide vapor into the isolation space of the housing, and a valve installed at one side of the supply pipe for interrupting supply of the hydrogen peroxide vapor.

The ventilation part is installed at one side of the inside of the housing, and includes a blowing fan for discharging air inside the isolation space to the outside, a ventilation pipe connected to the ventilation fan, and a ventilation pipe installed at one side of the ventilation pipe, And a filter means for purifying the air in the interior of the isolation space.

According to the present invention, sterilization and ventilation of the isolation space for isolation of infected patients can be individually controlled, thereby reducing labor force for sterilization and minimizing exposure of the sterilization worker to the infecting environment.

FIG. 1 schematically shows a configuration of an isolation system capable of individual space sterilization and ventilation control according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. It is to be noted that like elements in the drawings are represented by the same reference numerals as possible. Further, detailed description of known functions and configurations that may unnecessarily obscure the gist of the invention will be omitted.

1, an isolation system 1 capable of sterilizing and ventilating individual spaces according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a housing 10, a hydrogen peroxide vapor supply unit 20, a ventilation unit 30, and a control unit 40, .

The housing 10 is formed in a substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape, and a sealed isolation space S for isolating the infected patient is formed therein.

The hydrogen peroxide vapor supply unit 20 supplies hydrogen peroxide vapor into the isolation space S of the housing 10 to sterilize the inside of the isolation space S. The hydrogen peroxide vapor supply unit 20 includes a hydrogen peroxide vapor generator 21, An injection nozzle 23, and a valve 24.

The hydrogen peroxide steam generator 21 is installed outside the housing 10 and generates hydrogen peroxide vapor to be supplied to the isolation space S of the housing 10.

The supply pipe 22 is connected to the hydrogen peroxide vapor generator 21 and extends to the isolation space S of the housing 10 to provide a path for supplying the hydrogen peroxide vapor to the isolation space S of the housing 10 .

The injection nozzle 23 is installed at a predetermined distance on one side of the supply pipe 22 extending to the isolation space S of the housing 10 and injects the hydrogen peroxide vapor into the isolation space S of the housing 10 .

The valve 24 is provided at one side of the supply pipe 22 and interrupts supply of the hydrogen peroxide vapor supplied to the injection nozzle 23 through the supply pipe 22.

The ventilation part 30 is for discharging the air inside the sterilized isolation space S to the outside and includes the ventilation pipe 31, the filter unit 32 and the ventilation fan 33.

One end of the ventilation pipe 31 is connected to one side of the outer surface of the lower end of the housing 10 and the other end of the ventilation pipe 31 is extended to the outside to provide a path through which the inside air of the sterilized isolation space S is discharged to the outside.

The filter means 32 is installed at the other end of the ventilation pipe 31 and serves to purify the air inside the isolation space S discharged from the ventilation pipe 31.

The blowing fan 33 is disposed at the rear end of the filter means 32 and serves to discharge the air inside the isolation space S purified through the filter means 32 to the outside.

The control unit 40 controls the hydrogen peroxide vapor supply unit 20 and the ventilation unit 30 separately.

The control unit 40 opens the valve 24 of the hydrogen peroxide vapor supply unit 20 to sterilize the isolation space S of the housing 10 and supplies the hydrogen peroxide vapor to the isolation space S of the housing 10. [ And the valve 24 of the hydrogen peroxide vapor supply unit 20 is shielded to sterilize the isolation space S of the housing 10 by spraying the hydrogen peroxide vapor into the isolation space S of the housing 10, Cut off the supply.

The control unit 40 operates the blowing fan 33 of the ventilation unit 30 when the sterilization operation of the isolation space S of the housing 10 is completed and the inside of the isolation space S of the sterilized housing 10 The air is purified through the filter means 32 and discharged to the outside.

Although the present invention has been described in connection with the preferred embodiments, it is possible to make various modifications and variations without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. It is, therefore, to be understood that the appended claims will include all such modifications and changes as fall within the true spirit of the invention.
