Устройство стерилизации и дезинфекции поверхностей (УСДП)

Номер: RU0000207245U1

Полезная модель относится к приборам стерилизации и дезинфекции объектов с помощью ультрафиолетового излучения. Целью данного устройства является уничтожение возбудителей инфекционных заболеваний и разрушение токсинов на объектах внешней среды для предотвращения попадания их на кожу, слизистые и раневую поверхность. Поставленная цель достигается тем, что на поверхность объектов воздействует ультрафиолетовое излучение бактерицидной лампы. Преимущество данного устройства заключается в простоте конструкции, позволяющей защищать человека от воздействия УФ-излучения, так как излучение направлено вниз только на обрабатываемую поверхность, имеет приспособление для крепления на руке, ноге или инструменте для осуществления уборки, а также датчик, который при отдалении от поверхности на расстояние более 2 см отключает прибор.Областями техники, к которым относится полезная модель, являются медицина, косметология, торговля, предметы личного и домашнего обихода, а также там, где требуется дезинфекция поверхностей.Известны устройства по дезинфекции с использованием УФ-излучения открытого и закрытого типа. При работе первых (открытого типа) запрещено присутствие в помещении людей, вторые обеззараживают только воздух в помещении и не обрабатывают поверхности объектов.Предложенное в качестве полезной модели устройство позволяет осуществлять дезинфекцию и стерилизацию поверхностей объектов в присутствии людей, не нанося вред самому объекту в отличие от химических веществ, применяемых для дезинфекции.

The present radiation source assembly is configured such that the distal portion of the radiation source is cantilevered with the respect to the distal portion of the protective sleeve in which it is disposed. This feature obviates the need to use spacers, stops, springs and the like in a distal portion of the protective sleeve to maintain correct position of the radiation source within the protective sleeve. Further, the present radiation source assembly is advantageous in that allows for withdrawal of the radiation source from the radiation source assembly without the need to disengage all of the components. Thus, it is possible to replace a single radiation source by removing it from the protective sleeve during operation of the fluid treatment system. This operation can be accomplished quickly without the need to shut down the fluid treatment system or otherwise compensate for the fact that one of the radiation source is being serviced.

Employing such solutions to clean and/or sanitize processing equipment provides a method to evaluate and enhance the effectiveness of procedures used to remove the respective fluorescent detergents, sanitizers or organic residues from equipment or niches and reduce contamination. Similar compositions were developed for assessing processing aide food surface coverage, contact time and adherence. In addition, unique compositions were invented that increase processing aide coverage and adherence. Quantification of the presence or absence of the fluorescent GRAS or food additive compositions produces results for validation, monitoring and/or verification of food safety intervention procedures/processes.
