Description

A storage mechanism with a sterilization function. {Storage mechanism with sterilization function}

The present invention relates to a storage device having a sterilization function, and more particularly, it is possible to easily store, store and carry frequently used products or household items, while automatically sterilizing the stored various products or household items in a sanitary manner. It relates to storage devices that can be managed.

Due to the development of technology, the hygiene level of modern people is increasing day by day. In particular, products or household items that are frequently used in a state in which direct contact with the user's body is made are easy to be contaminated with bacteria, bacteria, viruses, and the like. In order to solve this problem, a variety of sterilizer products for sterilizing various products or household items have been released.

However, conventional conventional sterilizers have a large volume, so they can be used only in a fixed state at a fixed position at home where power can be supplied, but are difficult to carry. In particular, sterilization and disinfection effects cannot be obtained by simply washing with detergent for baby products used by infants, such as nipples and teething machines.

In order to solve this problem, according to Korean Patent Application No. 10-2018-0162450, there is provided a portable intelligent UVC LED sterilizer that can sterilize various items by irradiating UV LEDs necessary for sterilization.

The conventional sterilizer includes a bottom case having a USB connection port; a lower case formed on the upper end of the bottom case and mounted with a battery case on which a battery is mounted, and a main control unit for controlling the UV LED to emit light according to an operation of a push button switch; an inner frame formed on the upper end of the lower case and mounted with the UV LED in a state retracted to a certain depth; The interior is empty so that the inner frame can be retracted, and at least a part of the inner frame is moved up and down by an elastic member formed inside the upper end and the upper end of the inner frame. In accordance with the provision, the UV LED formed on the exposed inner frame is emitted while the upper case is moved to the upper end, so that various household items can be easily sterilized without space restrictions.

However, in the conventional sterilizer, in order to sterilize a large amount of household goods, the power state of the sterilizer must be manually operated while the upper case is moved and the UV LED is exposed in a state in which various household items to be sterilized are prepared. In this case, it is very cumbersome to use, and since the UV LED is irradiated from one direction, there is a problem that all surfaces of the object to be sterilized cannot be sterilized at once.

In addition, there is a risk of a safety accident when the UV LED is irradiated to the user's eyes during use.

According to the present invention, it is possible to maintain hygiene by automatically sterilizing the items contained in the bag, pouch, or other items accommodated in the inside of the product storage space, anytime, anywhere, regardless of the place, without the need to put them into a separate sterilization device.
