There is disclosed a disinfecting enclosure for a medical instrument comprising: a plurality of modules configured to define an enclosure having a base and at least one upright wall extending from the base; and a lid member configured to be mounted on the at least one upright wall so as to enclose the enclosure; wherein each said module comprises an inner surface having a plurality of UVC LEDs provided thereon, each of the plurality of UVC LEDs being actuable to emit UVC light to irradiate all surfaces of a medical instrument located within the enclosure.

A medical image diagnosis apparatus according to one embodiment includes a gantry and a first light source. The gantry includes a first opening to which a subject is inserted. The first light source emits light capable of sterilization to the first opening.

A system configured to protect valuable, sensitive, or electro-mechanical equipment during cleaning of the equipment can include a cover having a single opening leading to an interior cavity. The cover can be waterproof. A plate can be permanently attached to the cable of the equipment. An outer periphery of the plate can be approximately the same size as an inner periphery of the opening. The plate can be configured to sealingly fit within the single opening. The system can include a latching mechanism configured to sealingly attach the plate to the cover.

Closure mechanisms for closing and sealing sterilization containers and indicators for indicating the seal integrity sterilization containers are provided. For example, a container closure mechanism may be configured to distribute a closure force along a gasket to seal a container lid to a container body. Further, a seal indicator may visibly indicate at the container exterior whether the container is sufficiently sealed to prevent an ingress of contaminants into the container. If the container is sufficiently sealed, the seal indicator is a first state, and if the sterilization container is not sufficiently sealed, the seal indicator is in a second state. Thus, the seal indicator undergoes a state change when the sterilization container transitions from unsealed to sealed or from sealed to unsealed, such that a user can ascertain whether the container is properly sealed to maintain sterility or whether the seal and sterility of the container have been compromised.

A garment sanitization device having a garment chamber and a sanitization unit. The garment chamber includes a first appendage, a second appendage, and a fastening mechanism. The sanitization unit includes a light assembly and an actuation mechanism. The light assembly is configured to emit sterilizing wavelengths of light, such as ultraviolet light, and is operably coupled to the actuation mechanism, such that when the actuation mechanism is triggered, the light assembly is switched from an off state to an on state. The light assembly is oriented to emit light within the garment chamber. The sanitization unit may further include a timer for regulating the amount of light exposure and a processing unit for operably controlling the light assembly. The garment chamber may further include a view port that allows the user to ensure the light assembly is in the on state.

A method of sanitizing fabric-based currency eliminates or significantly reduces pathogens on fabric-based currency. The method is implemented by a system that includes an airtight container including a treatment chamber, a chamber entrance/exit, at least one UV lamp, and an ozone dispensing system. The method begins placing at least one piece of fabric-based currency through the chamber entrance/exit and into the treatment chamber. The piece of fabric-based currency is hermetically sealed within the treatment chamber by closing the chamber entrance/exit. The piece of fabric-based currency is then exposed to at least one quantity of UV radiation for a specified period of time. The piece of fabric-based currency is exposed to a quantity of ozone for another specified period of time by pumping the quantity of ozone into the treatment chamber. The chamber entrance/exit is finally opened, and the piece of fabric-based currency is removed from the treatment chamber.

A kitchen sterilization lamp is provided, which is used to be placed at the sewage outlet of the kitchen sink with a waste processor connected below, including a sterilization lamp holder, a sterilization lamp source and a power supply. The sterilization lamp is located on the sewage outlet of the kitchen sink, the sterilization lamp source is connected below the sterilization lamp holder and electrically connected to the power supply. The sterilization lamp source is in a rod shape, and the sterilization lamp holder extends vertically downward into the waste processor to irradiate the inner cavity of the waste processor. The present disclosure realizes the sterilization of the inner cavity of the waste processor and avoids the breeding of bacteria in the inner cavity of the waste processor.

A surface decontamination device (1) for decontaminating outer packagings (2) which contain pre-sterilised consumer goods and have a circumferential collar (3) prior to transfer into an insulator includes a conveyor for conveying the outer packagings (2) in a conveying direction (F) along a conveying path from an inlet side to an outlet side of the device (1). The conveying path passes through a decontamination chamber (5) between the inlet side and outlet side. An irradiation source (6) is associated with the chamber (5) for irradiating the outer packagings (2) conveyed through the chamber (5). The conveying path passes through at least one lock chamber (8) arranged between the inlet side and outlet side, adjacent to the chamber (5) and having an inlet and an outlet, the inlet and outlet being able to be opened and closed by a closer. The conveyor includes a suspended transport unit (7) in the chamber (5) for suspended transport of the outer packagings (2) on the circumferential collar (3) thereof, wherein a lifting unit (11, 15) for automatic, vertical adjustment of the outer packagings (2) relative to the suspended transport unit (7) is arranged in the lock chamber (8, 14).

The disclosure relates to disinfection application, particularly, to a device capable of disinfecting a ventilator as well as a face mask and a hose, and more particularly, to an ozone disinfection device, an ozone disinfection system, and an ozone disinfection method. An ozone disinfection device and an ozone disinfection system are provided. An ozone disinfection device includes: a sealed disinfection space, a gas distribution unit, an ozone generation unit, a suction pump, a filter, and a control module.

Embodiments relate to systems, devices, and methods for sanitizing stored contents. System includes main and secondary assemblies. Main assembly includes main opening and main storage section. Secondary assembly includes securing portion, radiation assembly, and control assembly. Securing portion transitions between secured and unsecured states. Secured state is when main and secondary assemblies are secured together. Radiation assembly is configured to emit radiation, and is formed symmetrically relative to a central axis. Control assembly includes first and second safety assemblies and control processor. First safety assembly is configured to determine whether the storage system is in the secured or unsecured state. Second safety assembly is configured to determine whether the secondary assembly is in a safe or unsafe orientation state. Control processor is configured to control the radiation assembly to emit radiation when the storage system is in the secured state and the secondary assembly is in the safe orientation state.
