Description

{Baby-Products Sterilizer}

The present invention relates to an infant sterilizer including a refrigerator storage room. More specifically, a refrigerator storage room is installed at a lower portion of a sterilizer, and a baby bottle, a baby food container and a toy are sterilized and stored, The present invention relates to a baby food sterilizer including a refrigerator storage room capable of storing baby foods and baby foods,

Infants and toddlers, infants, toddlers, toddlers, and toys should always be disinfected before or after use, since infants are generally immune.

In particular, disinfection of baby bottles was done by disinfecting infant products in boiling water for a certain period of time and then sterilizing them in a natural drying manner. However, the safety problem of being burned with boiling water and the wiping water However, if the boiling water or steam contains pollutants, heavy metals, or environmental hormones, it may be contaminated with other contaminants There is a problem that can occur.

Also, in recent years, there has been an increase in the necessity of disinfection machine because it is not possible to disinfect the hot water because a bowl or an infant product injected with corn starch as an eco-friendly product is increased.

Another disinfecting method for disinfecting a bottle is known as a sterilizer which generates steam to sterilize infant products by the steam.

However, in the case of the steam sterilizing type disinfecting machine, the water for obtaining the steam inside the disinfecting machine must be replenished every time before the disinfection, which is also troublesome and inconvenient.

Accordingly, in order to solve the conventional problems, a sterilizer using ultraviolet rays has been developed. However, the conventional ultraviolet sterilizer is positioned on the upper surface of the main body to increase the disinfection effect and to open the bottle open side to store the water in the bottle. In this case, the water inside the bottle is dried for a long time And ultraviolet rays are cut off due to the high temperature, so that complete sterilization can not be achieved.

In addition, the breast pump is used for artificially squeezing breast milk from a breast (hereinafter referred to as a breast pump) or storing breast milk that is squeezed. The pump pump is manually operated to squeeze breast milk by hand holding the vacuum pump And an electric type in which a vacuum pumping means is incorporated are widely used. Recently, as the interest of breast-feeding has increased, an electric breast pump which can be more conveniently used has been widely used.

In general, the pumping device and the sterilizer are separated from each other. After using the pumping device, the wide funnel and the silicone valve are cleaned and sterilized and stored in the sterilizer. However, since the pumping device and the sterilizing device are located separately, the place to be stored should be wide, and the main body of the pumping device has a weight of more than about 300 kg and more than 1 kg.

As described above, the breast milk pumped by the breast pump increases the preservation power of the immune component when stored in the refrigerator than in the freezer storage. However, refrigeration can be stored for about 8 days, but preferably not more than 72 hours. Therefore, frozen breast milk can be stored for a long period of time and can be kept frozen for a long period of time to minimize concern for deterioration. Frozen breast milk is immersed in warm water 20 to 30 minutes before feeding, transferred to the refrigerator the day before, It is warmed to the boil and it feeds.

As shown in FIGS. 1 to 7, the present invention includes a main body 100, a cover 200 coupled to the back of the main body 100 in a sliding manner, (300).

The main body 100 includes a sterilizing part 120 for storing and sterilizing infant products around a partition wall 110 formed in a square shape and having a front opening, And a storage unit 130 for storing the infant food.

The sterilizing unit 120 includes a storage unit 121 capable of storing a baby article on the inside thereof into a mold having a front surface opened, a suction and discharge unit 121 disposed on a rear surface of the storage unit 121, And an ultraviolet lamp 123 positioned on one side of the storage unit 121 and capable of drying and disinfecting the housed goods.

The storage part 121 is formed of a stainless steel material so as to increase the firing rate of ultraviolet rays emitted from the ultraviolet lamp 123 and to reach the inside of the sterilizing part 120 and the inside of the baby food product, do. In addition, a shelf (not shown) in the form of a mesh is additionally provided in the storage unit 121 to remove infant products of various sizes, such as a toothpicker, a toy, a bottle, and a tableware, .

In addition, a concave-convex pattern is formed in the longitudinal direction of the side surface of the receiving part 121 so that ultraviolet rays generated from the ultraviolet lamp 123 can be diffused and diffused.

The intake and exhaust unit 122 sucks and exhausts the air to circulate and purify the air in the storage unit 121 to remove water remaining in the baby article to facilitate the transmission of ultraviolet rays. The intake and exhaust unit 122 is connected to a fan (not shown) formed in the cover unit 300 to move the inside air to the outside to purify the inside air.

The ultraviolet lamp 123 emits light existing in a wavelength range of 100 to 400 nanometers to dissolve various bacteria such as influenza virus, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Salmonella bacteria. And one or more ultraviolet rays are uniformly dispersed in the inside of the accommodating portion 121 to sterilize the infant goods. In addition, the ultraviolet lamp 123 can prevent environmental hormones from being detected from the infant utensil when the temperature of the ultraviolet lamp 123 is lower than 40 ° C, and prevent the external deformations of the infant products injected with the plastic. Therefore, a temperature sensor 124 is provided at one side of the storage part 121 so that the internal temperature of the storage part 121 can be maintained at 30 to 40 ° C by the temperature sensor.

The sterilizing unit 120 includes a breast holder storing groove 125, which is inserted in the bottom surface of the sterilizing unit 120 and allows the breast holder 400 to be positioned. The pumping device storage groove 125 is formed in a rectangular shape and is tapered inward so that the light emitted from the ultraviolet lamp 123 is reflected on the lower side inclined surface of the accommodating portion 121 and is inserted into the sterilizing portion 120 To be diffused.

The storage unit 130 is located below the sterilizing unit 120 and prevents heat exchange between the sterilizing unit 120 and the storage unit 130 by the partition 110.

Unlike the sterilizing unit 120, the storage unit 130 does not need to be formed of a stainless steel material and is intended to store food at a low temperature. The storage unit 130 constitutes a compressor, a condenser, a capillary, and an evaporator on the back surface of the storage unit 130 so that the principle of absorbing the surrounding heat can be applied by using a refrigerant that can easily change from a liquid state to a gaseous state . Since the configuration of the storage unit 130 is a known technology, the description of each configuration is not described in the present invention.

However, since the storage unit 130 is intended to store the breast milk or the baby meal, the storage unit 130 may be maintained at 2 ° C and 4 ° C. Generally, breast milk can be stored in both refrigerated and frozen storage, but minimizes nutrient destruction of breast milk during storage. However, when stored in a refrigerated room, the shelf life is short and most of the mothers chose to keep their breast milk frozen because they are reluctant to store food such as fragrant foods like kimchi. Therefore, the present invention can refrigerate breast milk in the storage unit 130, transfer the refrigerated breast milk from the same position to the sterilized bottle in the sterilization unit 120 without moving it, It has an effect.

In the case of breast milk, the storage unit 130 can store 0 to 4 ° C for up to 8 days when stored in a refrigerator, and up to 8 days for freezer rooms below 19 ° C. The temperature is stored in the range of 19 to 22 degrees Celsius for a maximum of 10 hours, at 25 degrees Celsius for a maximum of 4 to 6 hours, and at a temperature of 27 degrees Celsius for a maximum of 2 hours. So that the temperature can be maintained at an optimal temperature for storing the heat.

The storage unit 130 may be a compressor, a condenser, a capillary, and an evaporator to maintain a predetermined temperature by an electric operation. Alternatively, the storage unit 130 may simply be filled with a heat insulating material such as plastic or styrofoam, By reducing the movement of heat, it is possible to provide a refrigeration effect by using an ice pack or the like as needed. In the case of removing the ice pack, it is possible to store the baby goods, thereby increasing the space utilization.

The cover part 200 is opened on the front surface like the main body part 100 and is formed in a rectangular shape so as to be slidably coupled to the back surface of the main body part 100.

A space is formed between the cover part 200 and the body part 100 to guide the flow of air and the control part 210 is formed on one side of the upper surface of the cover part 200.

In addition, the cover 200 has a fan (not shown) connected to the suction and discharge unit to circulate the air inside the sterilizing unit 120, And a filter unit (not shown) to prevent fine dust from flowing into the inside.

The control unit 210 controls the sterilizing unit 120, the storage unit 130 and the breast pump 400. The control unit 210 includes a button unit 211, an LCD screen unit 212, and a hose coupling unit 213 ).

The button unit 211 controls the temperatures of the sterilizing unit 120 and the storage unit 130 and the bladder 400 and the temperature of the sterilizing unit 120 and the storage unit 130, And can change the massage mode and the milking mode of the breast pump 400 and adjust the milking speed and pressure.

The LCD screen unit 212 allows the user to visually check the control state using the button unit 211. [

The hose coupling part 213 is connected to the pumping device so that the air hose can be coupled and the milking can be performed only by coupling the air hose without moving the pumping device.

The cover unit 300 is located on the front surface of the main body 100 and rotates while connected to the main body 100 to open and close the sterilizing unit 120 and the storage unit 130 The gripping grooves 311 and 321 are formed on the side surfaces of the first door 310 and the second door 320 so as to be separated from the first door 310 and the second door 320, So that the lid part 300 can be opened and closed.

The inner surface of the main body 100 is closed at the time of engagement with the main body 100, and the inner surface of the main body 100 is closed when the main body 100 is coupled with the main body 100. [ .

The sub-configuration of the main body 100, the cover 200, and the cover 300 is the same as that of the first embodiment, and therefore, the description is not repeated.

The water bath part 500 is located on the upper surface of the cover part 200 and is separated from the control part 210 by a predetermined distance and can be operated by the button 211 of the control part 210.

The drinking water tank 500 has a predetermined depth downward and is opened at an upper surface thereof. The drinking water tank 500 is filled with water in a state where a bottle, a tableware or the like is located inside the drinking water tank. And a sensor unit which is located in the hot water tank and turns on and off the heating unit according to the temperature of the water heated by the heating unit.

The hot water tank is made of various materials such as synthetic resin and stainless steel, and has a width and depth enough to place a bottle or a baby food. The hot water bottle can warm the food by the hot water by means of hot water instead of directly heating the breast milk pack or the breast milk collected bottle. Accordingly, it is possible to quickly heat the water by operating the button portion 211 and to keep the heated water for at least 4 to 5 hours, so that the water can be filled up to at least 3 times at a maximum of 10 It is not necessary to heat the water every number of times of feeding, so that the consumption power can be reduced.

The heating unit may be formed by wrapping a bottom surface or a side surface of the hot water tank using a hot wire, or by pressing a hot wire on an aluminum hot plate by a die casting method. When the electric energy enters the hot wire as described above, the molecules in the hot wire are vibrated to generate frictional heat, so that the water in the hot water tank can be heated.

In the meantime, the hot water portion has a sensor to track and control the temperature of milk or baby food so that it can be safely heated without the overheated portion, and when it is heated above the proper temperature, the power of the hot water portion can be shut off .
