- the curtain cover 3040 is preferably capable of being wound and housed on the side of the housing of the ultraviolet sterilization unit to which one end of the curtain cover 3040 is fixed when ultraviolet irradiation is not performed.
- a known winding mechanism used for a roll curtain or the like can be employed without any particular limitation.
- connection type ultraviolet sterilization apparatus 3000 in which two first ultraviolet sterilization units 10 are connected has been illustrated, but the present invention is not limited to this form.
- a connected type ultraviolet sterilization apparatus in which two or more of the second ultraviolet sterilization unit 1010 and the third ultraviolet sterilization unit 2010 described above are connected may be used.
- the connection type UV sterilizer 3000 having the connection member 3020 having the connection rods 3021a to 3021c and the hinges 3022a to 3022d has been exemplified, but the present invention is not limited to this form.
- a connection type ultraviolet sterilization apparatus in which a set of ultraviolet sterilization units are connected by an elastic body may be used.
- FIG. 13 is a side view schematically illustrating an ultraviolet sterilizer 4000 according to another embodiment.
- the ultraviolet sterilizer 4000 is a connected type sterilizer in which two third ultraviolet sterilizer units 2010 described above are connected.
- the ultraviolet sterilizer 4000 includes a set of ultraviolet sterilization units 2010 and 2010 and a connecting member 4020 that connects the set of ultraviolet sterilization units 2010 and 2010 to each other.
- the connecting member 4020 has an elastic body and a stopper, and the bending of the elastic body can be fixed to a predetermined degree.
- One end of the elastic body of the connecting member 4020 is fixed to the casing of one ultraviolet sterilization unit 2010, and the other end of the elastic body of the connecting member 4020 is fixed to the casing of the other ultraviolet sterilization unit 2010.
- the pair of UV sterilization units 2010 and 2010 are connected to each other by a connecting member 4020, thereby maintaining the positional relationship in which the outer surfaces 2012b and 2012b of the UV transmitting windows 2012 and 2012 face each other at a predetermined distance. It is possible.
- the sterilized body 1 is placed on the outer surface 2012b of the ultraviolet transmissive window 2012 of one ultraviolet sterilization unit 2010, and the outer surfaces 2012b of the ultraviolet transmissive windows 2012 and 2012 are disposed.
- ultraviolet rays are irradiated from both of the pair of ultraviolet sterilization units 2010 and 2010, thereby It is possible to sterilize by simultaneously irradiating ultraviolet rays from both the upper and lower sides of the body 1. Therefore, even with such an ultraviolet sterilizer 4000, it is possible to quickly sterilize the entire object 1 by ultraviolet irradiation.
- UV sterilizer (first UV sterilization unit) 1010 UV sterilizer (second UV sterilization unit) 2010 UV sterilizer (third UV sterilization unit) 3000, 4000 Ultraviolet sterilizer 11 Housing 11a One side wall 12, 2012 Ultraviolet transmission window 12a, 2012a Inner side surface 12b, 2012b (outside ultraviolet transmission window) Outer side surface 13 Ultraviolet emission window 14, 1114, 1214 Mirror 15 Drive device 16 Storage unit 17 Switch 19 Optical axis 100, 100 ′, 1100, 1200 Light source 101 Ultraviolet light emitting diode 102 Substrate 110 Rod-shaped light source 111 (Cylindrical or polygonal columnar) base 112 Deep ultraviolet light emitting diode 120 Emission side reflection mirror 121 Focal axis of exit-side reflecting mirror 122 Condensing axis of exit-side reflecting mirror 125 Exit-side housing 123 Condensing-side reflecting mirror 124 Focus axis of condensing-side reflecting mirror 126 Condensing

Abstract
L'invention concerne un dispositif de stérilisation aux ultraviolets comprenant une unité de stérilisation aux ultraviolets pourvue des éléments suivants : un boîtier doté d'une ouverture; une fenêtre de transmittance d'ultraviolets, qui présente une surface interne et une surface externe sur le côté opposé à la surface interne, qui est disposée de sorte que sa surface interne fait face à l'intérieur du boîtier afin de bloquer l'ouverture du boîtier, et qui transmet un rayonnement ultraviolet; une source de lumière qui possède au moins une diode émettant de la lumière ultraviolette et qui émet un rayonnement ultraviolet sous la forme d'un faisceau de lumière en forme de bande; et un moyen de balayage qui peut émettre le rayonnement ultraviolet, de la source de lumière, depuis l'intérieur du boîtier dans toute la surface interne de la fenêtre de transmittance d'ultraviolets, par émission du rayonnement ultraviolet qui vient de la source de lumière tout en décalant, dans une direction coupant la largeur du faisceau de lumière en forme de bande, l'emplacement où le rayonnement ultraviolet provenant de la source de lumière est incident sur la fenêtre de transmittance d'ultraviolets. Le dispositif de stérilisation aux ultraviolets émet un rayonnement ultraviolet sur un corps à stériliser qui est disposé à l'opposé de la surface externe de la fenêtre de transmittance d'ultraviolets, et stérilise ainsi un tel corps.
