An automatic mask dispenser handles procedure masks of a type having filtration material inside ear loops by use of a high engagement material on a movable surface that can selectively remove the lowermost mask. In one embodiment opposed moving surfaces are provided to fold the mask hygienically about its inner surface for dispensing to the user.

A system comprises an ozone conduit in fluid communication with an aircraft door seal configured to seal the ozone conduit to an aircraft door. An ozone source is in fluid communication with the ozone conduit for supplying a flow of ozone gas (O.sub.3) to an aircraft interior through the ozone conduit and aircraft door seal. The ozone conduit can be an ozone inlet line, and an ozone outlet line can be in fluid communication with the aircraft door seal for removal of ozone from the aircraft interior.

A drying device is provided. The device includes a frame having a base portion with a plurality of supporting castor wheels. A front support and a rear support extend upwardly from opposing ends of the base portion. A horizontal bar is affixed between the upper ends of the front and rear supports. The horizontal bar may include various configurations of hooks and extending rods for hanging sports equipment and garments for storage and drying. The height of horizontal bar can be adjusted by a push button adjuster. A flexible transparent cover is removably securable around the frame. A forced air heater is disposed on the base portion of the frame. The forced air heater includes a temperature control, a timer control, and a tip-over switch. The device further includes an ozone generator with a timer control for deodorizing the contents of the bag during the drying process.

A UV-C emitting phone case is provided that includes a main body defining a receiving cavity and a perimeter configured to receive and hold a mobile phone, surround a perimeter and a back portion of the phone. The phone case includes at least one UV-C light emitting diode (LED) positioned in the main body of the phone case and exposed on a back side of the phone case. It further includes a window for exposing the UV-C LED and optionally having a color metric to indicate if the light is being emitted, a power source built into the phone case and connected to the UV-C LED; an on/off switch coupled to the power source configured to activate and deactivate the UV-C LED; and an optional distance sensor to indicate a distance from a target surface to the UV-C LED.

The present technology provides a disinfectant textile composition having antimicrobial, wash durable, optionally enhanced with multifunctional properties. The technology also provides a method of treating a textile substrate. The method comprises applying a disinfecting treating composition using one or more of an exhaust, padding, coating or spraying process. The treating composition comprises an antifungal agent and further comprises a cross-linking agent. The method also comprises drying the textile substrate using a heat setting process.

This document describes self-cleaning devices. In one aspect, a self-cleaning device includes a fabric having a surface covered with a photocatalyst, one or more light sources embedded in the fabric, and a triggering mechanism that activates a cleaning cycle by activating the one or more light sources. The triggering mechanism can include a pressure sensor. The triggering mechanism can be configured to activate the cleaning cycle in response to detecting a decrease in pressure being applied to the pressure sensor.

A cold plasma system to disinfect PPE while disinfecting a floor surface, comprising a positive air ion collector on a top portion and a negative air ion collector on a lower portion.

A decontamination apparatus for misting a user with a decontaminating alcohol mist. The decontamination apparatus is configured to decontaminate a person and their clothing simultaneously. A frame component defines a decontamination area for the user to enter. A fluid reservoir retains a decontamination solution until it is dispensed via a plurality of nozzles. The plurality of nozzles may be positioned around the frame component, be integrated into a dispensing component that rotates around the user or be integrated into a dispensing component that partially surrounds the user and moves up and down for full coverage. A plastic or nylon chamber may be attached to the frame component to surround the decontamination area to prevent overspray.

Disclosed herein are articles (e.g., wearable articles, such as gloves and masks) comprising an antimicrobial material, and methods of manufacture thereof. In various embodiments, the antimicrobial material comprises dimethyloctadecyl[3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl]ammonium, or a salt thereof. In some embodiments, the antimicrobial article (e.g., a wearable article, such as a glove or mask) may have antiviral properties against coronavirus, such as SARS-CoV-2.

A germicidal lighting system uses far-UVC lamps emitting frequencies that do not harm humans, for example 222 nm. The presence of a person is detected using sensors, and the far-UVC lamps are turned on when a person is present and off when no one is present. This may be applied to a person's whole body or, for example, a hand or hands. A far-UVC optical system for a germicidal lighting system may include a wavelength selective mirror arranged to receive far-UVC light from a far-UVC light source and to disproportionately reflect the far-UVC light in at least one wavelength of the far-UVC light relative to at least another wavelength of light emitted by the far-UVC light source. A far-UVC light source may be placed in a reflective enclosure to direct light through an opening. The reflective enclosure or a mirror to which the light is directed may be rotated.
