Description

Portable sterilization device

The present invention relates to a portable sterilizing device, and more particularly to a portable sterilizing device suitable for sterilizing a fluid.

Conventional ultraviolet germicidal lamps emit ultraviolet light to excite low-pressure mercury vapor to sterilize, but have many disadvantages. First of all, the lamp material of the ultraviolet germicidal lamp is divided into two types: a quartz glass tube or a high borax glass tube. The ultraviolet light transmittance of the quartz glass tube is >80%, and the sterilization ability is strong, but the price is much more expensive than the high borax glass tube. The transmittance of the high borax glass tube is less than 50%, and it is easy to explode due to poor heat dissipation, and has the problems that the electrode is easy to burn black, the radiation intensity is fast decayed, and the life is low. In addition, the conventional ultraviolet germicidal lamp is easy to damage the human body. If the ultraviolet germicidal lamp is irradiated to the face, the cornea of the eye may be damaged, and the eyes may be weeping, redness, tingling, etc., and it takes 3 to 4 days to heal. In addition, the conventional ultraviolet germicidal lamp is overweight, the lightest product is about 2~3kg, and the heaviest product has 100kg, which is not easy to carry.

The present invention provides a portable sterilizing device for sterilizing a fluid, including a pipeline, a power generating unit, and a sterilizing unit, in order to solve the problems of the prior art. The fluid flows in the line. The fluid drives the power generating unit to cause the power generating unit to generate an electrical energy. The sterilization unit is coupled The power generation unit includes at least one light emitting diode, and the light emitting diode provides a germicidal light toward the pipeline, and the germicidal light sterilizes the fluid.

The portable sterilizing device of the present embodiment uses the water flow to generate electric energy, and the ultraviolet light emitting diode emits UV light to kill bacteria in the water. Compared with the conventional ultraviolet germicidal lamp, the portable sterilization device of the present embodiment has the advantages of long life, low power consumption, small volume and the like. The portable sterilizing device of the present embodiment has the advantages of small volume and light weight, and the subversion of the conventional germicidal lamp is cumbersome and difficult to carry. In addition, the conventional germicidal lamp is exposed to the environment, and the vulnerable part of the human body (ex: the eye) is easily damaged by the ultraviolet light, and the portable sterilizing device of the present embodiment covers the sterilizing unit with the casing, and the ultraviolet light is not easily leaked. And the indicator light is used to let the user know whether the sterilization unit is being sterilized, and the user's body safety is fully guaranteed.
