Description

DESCRIPCION DESCRIPTION
Pórtico desinfectante SECTOR DE LA TÉCNICA Disinfectant portal TECHNIQUE SECTOR
La presente solicitud se refiere a un pórtico desinfectante que utiliza radiación ultravioleta lejana para la desinfección, aprovechando las características de ésta. The present application refers to a disinfecting portal that uses far ultraviolet radiation for disinfection, taking advantage of its characteristics.
ESTADO DE LA TÉCNICA STATE OF THE ART
El actual panorama por Covid y cualquier eventual pandemia futura cambia los requisitos y condiciones sanitarias que se han de cumplir en espacios públicos cerrados, principalmente en locales donde se presente mucha gente: centros comerciales, aeropuertos, estadios... Esto obliga a cambiar la percepción y las demandas de los usuarios, y los empresarios y establecimientos deberán ofrecer medidas de seguridad frente a virus y bacterias, Covid y/o futuras. The current panorama due to Covid and any possible future pandemic changes the sanitary requirements and conditions that must be met in closed public spaces, mainly in places where many people are present: shopping malls, airports, stadiums... This forces us to change the perception and the demands of users, and entrepreneurs and establishments must offer security measures against viruses and bacteria, Covid and/or future ones.
Se conocen pórticos de desinfección que pretenden pulverizar líquidos desinfectantes sobre los usuarios. Estos sistemas son peligrosos puesto que la mayoría de líquidos desinfectantes tienen una cierta toxicidad. También se ha propuesto el uso de ozono, igualmente tóxico. Disinfection portals are known that intend to spray disinfectant liquids on users. These systems are dangerous since most disinfectant liquids have a certain toxicity. The use of ozone, equally toxic, has also been proposed.
Por otro lado, el uso de radiación UV-A o UV-B ha sido propuesto. Esta radiación no es demasiado tóxica, pero a cambio es inofensiva para la mayoría de agentes biológicos dañinos. On the other hand, the use of UV-A or UV-B radiation has been proposed. This radiation is not overly toxic, but instead is harmless to most harmful biological agents.
El solicitante no conoce ningún dispositivo que permita resolver estos problemas. The Applicant is not aware of any device that allows these problems to be solved.
BREVE EXPLICACIÓN DE LA INVENCIÓN La invención consiste en un pórtico desinfectante según la reivindicación primera. Sus diferentes variantes resuelven los problemas reseñados. BRIEF EXPLANATION OF THE INVENTION The invention consists of a disinfecting portal according to the first claim. Its different variants solve the outlined problems.
Es una propuesta que ofrece una solución de desinfección masiva y segura para personas a accesos en espacios públicos tales como hoteles, campos de fútbol, restaurantes, museos, aeropuertos, cruceros, etc. It is a proposal that offers a massive and safe disinfection solution for people accessing public spaces such as hotels, soccer fields, restaurants, museums, airports, cruise ships, etc.
Proponemos un pórtico, arco o túnel de desinfección basado en tecnología ultravioleta (UV-C) lejana. De todas las longitudes de onda de la luz ultravioleta, la lejana se sitúa en 207-222 nm. Esta longitud, en especial la de 222 nm, tiene efecto germicida contra virus, bacterias, hongos y protozoos como el resto de luces UV-C. Además, es segura e inocua para las personas. We propose a disinfection portal, arch or tunnel based on far ultraviolet (UV-C) technology. Of all the wavelengths of ultraviolet light, the far one is 207-222 nm. This length, especially 222nm, has a germicidal effect against viruses, bacteria, fungi and protozoa like other UV-C lights. In addition, it is safe and harmless to people.
Dicho arco presenta luz ultravioleta en sus costados (preferiblemente, incluidos el suelo y el techo) de forma que las personas se desinfectan a medida que pasan. Said arch presents ultraviolet light on its sides (preferably, including the floor and ceiling) so that people are disinfected as they pass.
En la zona de suelo presenta una parrilla, reja, o cualquier otro sistema que proteja las luminarias de las pisadas y golpes y deje, a su vez, pasar la luz UV-C. In the floor area, it has a grill, grate, or any other system that protects the luminaires from footsteps and knocks and, in turn, allows UV-C light to pass through.
Otras variantes se aprecian en el resto de la memoria. Other variants are seen in the rest of the report.
DESCRIPCIÓN DE LAS FIGURAS DESCRIPTION OF THE FIGURES
Para una mejor comprensión de la invención, se incluyen las siguientes figuras. For a better understanding of the invention, the following figures are included.

MODOS DE REALIZACIÓN DE LA INVENCIÓN MODES OF EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION
A continuación se pasa a describir de manera breve un modo de realización de la invención, como ejemplo ilustrativo y no limitativo de ésta. En la figura 1 se muestra un ejemplo de realización formado por un pórtico (1) con dos laterales (2), un travesaño (3) superior y un suelo (4). El pórtico (1) comprende en su interior una serie de luces (5) UV-C de longitud de onda entre 207 y 222 nm. Preferiblemente 220-222 nm, y más preferiblemente 222 nm. Las luces (5) serán preferiblemente LEDs. Below is a brief description of an embodiment of the invention, as an illustrative and non-limiting example of the latter. Figure 1 shows an example of an embodiment formed by a frame (1) with two sides (2), an upper crossbar (3) and a floor (4). The portal (1) comprises inside a series of UV-C lights (5) with a wavelength between 207 and 222 nm. Preferably 220-222nm, and more preferably 222nm. The lights (5) will preferably be LEDs.
Las luces (5) se distribuyen por el travesaño (3) y los laterales (2), y preferiblemente también en el suelo (4), protegidos. Las luces (5) del suelo (4) estarán protegidas por una rejilla u otro elemento protector y transparente a esas longitudes de onda. The lights (5) are distributed on the crossbar (3) and the sides (2), and preferably also on the floor (4), protected. The lights (5) on the ground (4) will be protected by a grid or other protective element that is transparent at those wavelengths.
El pórtico (1) puede comprender un semáforo (6) u otro sistema indicador de cuándo se puede pasar, una cámara termográfica (7) en al menos un lado para medir la temperatura corporal y un sistema de aforo (8) que cuenta las personas que han pasado por el pórtico (1) en uno u otro sentido, como barreras, células fotoeléctricas, cámaras de detección de personas (con reconocimiento de objetos), u otro sistema similar. The gantry (1) may include a traffic light (6) or other system indicating when it is possible to pass, a thermographic camera (7) on at least one side to measure body temperature and a gauging system (8) that counts people that have passed through the portal (1) in one direction or another, such as barriers, photoelectric cells, people detection cameras (with object recognition), or another similar system.
El pórtico (1) es gestionado por una unidad de control y alimentado generalmente desde la red eléctrica. The gantry (1) is managed by a control unit and is generally powered from the electrical network.
