In the present invention, the sterilization unit 3 is implemented by CCFL, HCFL, and LED, and the generated electromagnetic wave is UV.

The starting module 4 is also disposed in the accommodating space 10 and includes a pressure sensing unit 41. In the embodiment, the pressure sensing unit 41 is implemented by a micro switch. When the user finishes using the water cup 5, the user flips it over the upper cover module 13. The pressure sensing unit 41 receives the weight of the object to be sterilized 5 (the cup) delivered by the upper cover module 13, and causes the upper cover module 13 to press the micro switch 41 to activate the sterilization unit 3. When the user picks up the water cup 5, the upper cover module 13 does not bear the weight. At this time, there is not enough weight to pass to the pressure sensing unit 41, and the elastic member 2 returns the upper cover module 13 to the original position, and the sterilization unit 3 is closed.

Referring to the first, fourth and fifth figures, in the second aspect of the embodiment, the sterilizing device 3 is automatically closed after the water cup 5 is left for a period of time. The difference from the first aspect is that the starting module 4 includes a pressure sensing unit 41, a timing unit 42, and a control unit 43 connected to the sterilization unit 3, and the sterilization unit 3 is activated after being activated. Given the time, the timing unit 42 causes the control unit 43 to close the sterilization unit 3. In this aspect, the pressure sensing unit 41 is implemented by a pressure sensing layer disposed under the upper cover module 13. When the user flips the water cup 5 over the upper cover module 13, the upper cover module 13 and the peripheral wall of the housing 1 The pressing unit 41 is pressed, and the control unit 43 is notified to activate the sterilization unit 3, and at the same time, the timing unit 42 starts counting. When the sterilization unit 3 is activated for a predetermined period of time, such as 20 seconds, the timing unit 42 notifies the control unit 43 to turn off the sterilization unit 3.
