Description

物品の殺菌・消毒・保存装置及び方法Device sterilization / disinfection / preservation apparatus and method
　本発明は、オゾンガス、炭酸ガス、窒素ガスを用いて、物品を殺菌・消毒・保存する物品の殺菌・消毒・保存装置及び方法に関する。 The present invention relates to an article sterilizing / disinfecting / preserving apparatus and method for sterilizing / disinfecting / preserving articles using ozone gas, carbon dioxide gas, and nitrogen gas.
　オゾンは、三つの酸素原子から成り、強い酸化力を持つことで知られている。このオゾンの酸化力により、オゾンは優れた殺菌、ウイルスの不活化、脱臭、漂白、有機物の除去等の効果を奏することができる。そのため、現在では様々な分野で上記した殺菌などの効果が活用されている。 Ozone consists of three oxygen atoms and is known to have a strong oxidizing power. Due to the oxidizing power of ozone, ozone can exert excellent effects such as sterilization, virus inactivation, deodorization, bleaching, and removal of organic substances. Therefore, the effects such as sterilization described above are currently used in various fields.
　一方、炭酸ガスは、抗菌、防腐、防虫作用を有し、バクテリア、カビ、害虫などの発生を抑制することができる。特に、殺虫剤のような毒性なしに、害虫を卵、幼虫、蛹の状態でも駆除することが可能で、農薬としても用いられている。また、窒素ガスと炭酸ガスは、例えば、高価な衣類、書籍、骨董品等の物品を冒すカビ、虫の成虫及びその卵を窒息させる（酸素を絶つことによる）ことにより、これらの物品を例えば化学薬品等によって化学反応等による変色等を生じさせることなく、有効に除去することが知られている。 On the other hand, carbon dioxide has antibacterial, antiseptic and insecticidal effects, and can suppress the generation of bacteria, fungi, pests and the like. In particular, the insect pests can be controlled even in the state of eggs, larvae and pupae without toxicity like insecticides, and they are also used as agricultural chemicals. In addition, nitrogen gas and carbon dioxide gas, for example, suffocate the mold, insect adults and eggs that affect articles such as expensive clothing, books, antiques, etc. It is known to remove effectively without causing discoloration or the like due to a chemical reaction or the like by a chemical agent or the like.
　従って、従来から、例えば書籍や骨董物を酸素に触れさせないように、炭酸ガス又は窒素ガスを充填した包装物内にこれらの物品を保管することは知られていた。 Therefore, conventionally, it has been known to store these articles in a package filled with carbon dioxide gas or nitrogen gas so that, for example, books and antiques are not exposed to oxygen.
　しかし、このような単に炭酸ガス等によって空気を遮断するだけの従来の物品の保管方法では、物品の表面や内部に付着しているカビ又は微細な虫若しくはこれらの胞子や卵がそのまま物品に付着したままであり、やがては、物品の包装内に空気（酸素）が徐々に進入し、これによって、物品の表面や内部に付着しているカビ又は微細な虫若しくはこれらの胞子や卵が息を吹き返して大量に増殖し、その結果、貴重な保管物を変色させたり、カビや虫食いによってボロボロに侵される事態を迎えていたのである。 However, in such a conventional method for storing an article in which the air is simply blocked by carbon dioxide or the like, mold or fine insects adhering to the surface or inside of the article or their spores or eggs are directly attached to the article. Over time, air (oxygen) gradually enters the packaging of the article, which causes mold or fine insects or spores or eggs attached to the surface or inside of the article to breathe. It was blown back and proliferated in large quantities. As a result, it was in a situation where precious items were discolored, and it was tattered by mold and worms.

　次に、上述の本物品の殺菌・消毒・保存装置１を使用する際の手順について、図２を用いて説明する。 Next, the procedure for using the above-described sterilizing / disinfecting / preserving apparatus 1 for this article will be described with reference to FIG.
　まず、物品カバー部材２０内に物品１００を収容した状態で、物品カバー部材２０内の空気を排出口２３から抜き取る（ステップＳ１）。 First, in the state where the article 100 is accommodated in the article cover member 20, the air in the article cover member 20 is extracted from the discharge port 23 (step S1).
　次いで、オゾン供給手段１１からオゾンガスを物品カバー部材２０内に注入する（ステップＳ２）。 Next, ozone gas is injected into the article cover member 20 from the ozone supply means 11 (step S2).
　物品カバー部材２０内にオゾンガスが適度に注入されたら、オゾンガスの供給を停止し、そのまま所定時間、密封状態を保ち、物品にオゾンガスを接触させる（ステップＳ３）。 When the ozone gas is appropriately injected into the article cover member 20, the supply of the ozone gas is stopped, the sealed state is maintained for a predetermined time, and the article is brought into contact with the ozone gas (step S3).
　次いで、物品カバー部材２０内のオゾンガスを排出口２３から抜き取る（ステップＳ４）。 Next, the ozone gas in the article cover member 20 is extracted from the discharge port 23 (step S4).
　次に、炭酸ガス供給手段１２から炭酸ガスを、又は、窒素ガス供給手段１３から窒素ガスを、あるいはこれらの混合ガスを、物品カバー部材２０内に注入する（ステップＳ５）。これにより、物品カバー部材２０内のオゾンガスが排除される。 Next, carbon dioxide gas from the carbon dioxide supply means 12, nitrogen gas from the nitrogen gas supply means 13, or a mixed gas thereof is injected into the article cover member 20 (step S5). Thereby, the ozone gas in the article cover member 20 is excluded.
　物品カバー部材２０内に炭酸ガス又は窒素ガス、あるいはこれらの混合ガスが適度に注入されたら、ガスの供給を停止し、そのまま密封する（ステップＳ６）。これで物品の殺菌・消毒・保存処理が完了する。例えば取り扱う物品１００が壊れやすい物であるような場合、物品カバー部材２０内のガスが緩衝材とも成り得るため、ここでは物品カバー部材２０内から抜かずに密封する。 When carbon dioxide gas, nitrogen gas, or a mixed gas thereof is appropriately injected into the article cover member 20, the supply of gas is stopped and sealed as it is (step S6). This completes the sterilization / disinfection / storage process of the article. For example, when the article 100 to be handled is a fragile object, the gas in the article cover member 20 can also serve as a buffer material, and here, the article cover member 20 is sealed without being pulled out.
　一方、省スペース等の理由から物品カバー部材２０内の炭酸ガス又は窒素ガス、あるいはこれらの混合ガスを抜いて真空にして保存することも可能である。図３にその手順を示す。 On the other hand, for reasons such as space saving, the carbon dioxide gas or nitrogen gas in the article cover member 20 or a mixed gas thereof can be removed and stored in a vacuum. FIG. 3 shows the procedure.
　まず、物品カバー部材２０内に物品１００を収容した状態で、物品カバー部材２０内の空気を排出口２３から抜き取る（ステップＳ１１）。 First, in the state where the article 100 is accommodated in the article cover member 20, the air in the article cover member 20 is extracted from the discharge port 23 (step S11).
　次いで、オゾン供給手段１１からオゾンガスを物品カバー部材２０内に注入する（ステップＳ１２）。 Next, ozone gas is injected into the article cover member 20 from the ozone supply means 11 (step S12).
　物品カバー部材２０内にオゾンガスが適度に注入されたら、オゾンガスの供給を停止し、そのまま所定時間、密封状態を保ち、物品にオゾンガスを接触させる（ステップＳ１３）。 When the ozone gas is appropriately injected into the article cover member 20, the supply of the ozone gas is stopped, the sealed state is maintained for a predetermined time as it is, and the article is brought into contact with the ozone gas (step S13).
　次いで、物品カバー部材２０内のオゾンガスを排出口２３から抜き取る（ステップＳ１４）。 Next, the ozone gas in the article cover member 20 is extracted from the discharge port 23 (step S14).
　次に、炭酸ガス供給手段１２から炭酸ガスを、又は、窒素ガス供給手段１３から窒素ガスを、あるいはこれらの混合ガスを、物品カバー部材２０内に注入し、物品カバー部材２０内のオゾンガスを排除する（ステップＳ１５）。物品カバー部材２０内に炭酸ガス又は窒素ガス、あるいはこれらの混合ガスが適度に注入されたら、ガスの供給を停止する。 Next, carbon dioxide gas from the carbon dioxide supply means 12, nitrogen gas from the nitrogen gas supply means 13, or a mixed gas thereof is injected into the article cover member 20, and ozone gas in the article cover member 20 is excluded. (Step S15). When carbon dioxide gas, nitrogen gas, or a mixed gas thereof is appropriately injected into the article cover member 20, the supply of gas is stopped.
　次に、物品カバー部材２０内から炭酸ガス又は窒素ガス、あるいはこれらの混合ガスを、排出口２３から抜き取り、物品カバー部材２０内を真空状態にする（ステップＳ１６）。 Next, carbon dioxide gas, nitrogen gas, or a mixed gas thereof is extracted from the article cover member 20 through the discharge port 23, and the article cover member 20 is evacuated (step S16).
　次いで、物品カバー部材２０を密封する（ステップＳ１７）。これで物品の殺菌・消毒・保存処理が完了する。 Next, the article cover member 20 is sealed (step S17). This completes the sterilization / disinfection / storage process of the article.
　なお、物品カバー部材２０の排出口２３には、簡単に内部のガスを抜き取るため、図４に示すようにガス抜き装置４１を設けるのが好適である。このガス抜き装置４１は、手動式のポンプ、あるいは電動式のポンプからなる。物品１００のサイズが小さい場合には、物品カバー部材２０内のガスを手で押し出しても良いが、ガス抜き装置４１として手動の負圧ポンプを用いることでより簡単に内部のガスを抜き取ることができる。物品１００のサイズが大きい場合には、電動ポンプで物品カバー部材内から外部へガスを排出するのが良い。このように、ガス抜き装置４１を用いて物品カバー部材２０内の気圧を大気圧に対して負圧にすることで、物品カバー部材２０内のガスを除去する。 Note that it is preferable to provide a gas venting device 41 at the outlet 23 of the article cover member 20 as shown in FIG. The degassing device 41 is composed of a manual pump or an electric pump. When the size of the article 100 is small, the gas in the article cover member 20 may be pushed out by hand, but the internal gas can be more easily extracted by using a manual negative pressure pump as the degassing device 41. it can. When the size of the article 100 is large, the gas may be discharged from the article cover member to the outside with an electric pump. Thus, the gas in the article cover member 20 is removed by setting the atmospheric pressure in the article cover member 20 to a negative pressure with respect to the atmospheric pressure using the gas venting device 41.
　なお、上記では、物品カバー部材２０にガス供給口２２と排出口２３とを別々に設ける例を示したが、これらを兼用することもできる。図５に示す物品の殺菌・消毒・保存装置１では、物品カバー部材２０Ａはガス供給口と排出口に代えて、両方を兼ねるガス供給及び排出口２５を備えている。この物品の殺菌・消毒・保存装置１Ａでは、物品カバー部材２０Ａへのガスの供給と排出の切り替えを、切替バルブ５１の操作により行う。そして、物品カバー部材２０Ａ内にガスを注入する際は、まずガス供給及び排出口２５から物品カバー部材２０Ａ内のガスを排出してから、切替バルブ５１を切り替えて行う。このように、ガス供給口と排出口とを兼ねた一つのガス供給及び排出口２５とすることで、物品カバー部材２０Ａの構造を簡略化、単純化することができる。 In addition, although the example which provided the gas supply port 22 and the discharge port 23 in the article | item cover member 20 separately was shown above, these can also be combined. In the article sterilization / disinfection / storage apparatus 1 shown in FIG. 5, the article cover member 20 </ b> A includes a gas supply port and a discharge port 25 that serve as both, instead of the gas supply port and the discharge port. In the article sterilizing / disinfecting / preserving apparatus 1 </ b> A, gas supply to the article cover member 20 </ b> A is switched between supply and discharge by operating the switching valve 51. When gas is injected into the article cover member 20A, the gas in the article cover member 20A is first discharged from the gas supply and discharge port 25, and then the switching valve 51 is switched. Thus, the structure of the article cover member 20A can be simplified and simplified by using one gas supply and discharge port 25 that serves both as a gas supply port and a discharge port.
　上記のように、本発明の物品の殺菌・消毒・保存装置及び方法によれば、最初に、オゾンガスにより物品の表面や内部に付着しているカビ又は微細な虫若しくはこれらの胞子や卵を殺菌消毒し、次に、炭酸ガス、窒素ガス又はこれらの混合ガスを物品に接触させることにより物品の殺菌・消毒・保存を行う。これにより、物品の長期の保存を可能にする。このようなオゾンガス、炭酸ガス、窒素ガスを用いた殺菌・消毒・保存は、化学薬品に比べて人や環境への悪影響が少なく、且つ低コストで済むというメリットがある。 As described above, according to the apparatus and method for sterilizing / disinfecting / preserving articles according to the present invention, first, mold or fine insects or spores or eggs adhering to the surface or inside of the article are sterilized by ozone gas. The article is sterilized, and then the article is sterilized / disinfected / preserved by bringing the article into contact with carbon dioxide gas, nitrogen gas or a mixed gas thereof. This allows for long-term storage of the article. Such sterilization, disinfection, and storage using ozone gas, carbon dioxide gas, and nitrogen gas are advantageous in that they have less adverse effects on humans and the environment and are less expensive than chemicals.
　なお、本発明は上記実施形態に限定されるものではなく、本発明の趣旨に基づき種々の変形が可能であり、これらを本発明の範囲から排除するものではない。 Note that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and various modifications are possible based on the spirit of the present invention, and these are not excluded from the scope of the present invention.
