Filtered product bag with compact form factor

A product bag includes a bladder and an elongated filtration device. The bladder includes opposing first and second film layers defining a product chamber. The first and second film layers are sealed together along a perimeter seal extending along at least a portion of a perimeter of the bladder. The elongated filtration device includes a housing, a filtration membrane disposed in the housing, an inlet adapted for receiving a fluid to be filtered, and an outlet in fluid communication with the product chamber. A majority of the elongated filtration device is embedded between the first and second film layers of the perimeter seal of the bladder to provide for a compact form factor.

DOOR SEAL

Provided is a seal for sealing the interface between abutting first and second members, the seal comprising a main body; a channel lobe extending outward from the main body, the channel lobe shaped for nesting in a channel of the first member; a primary sealing lobe extending outward from the side of the main body facing the second member, the primary sealing lobe extending into and contacting an inner surface of the second member; and a secondary sealing lobe extending downward from the main body toward an exterior of the interface, a first face of a distal end of the secondary sealing lobe contacting a front face of the first member, and a second face of the distal end of the secondary sealing member contacting a front face of the second member. The disclosed seal maintains a gas-tight seal and minimizes resisting force when closing the door.

REMOVABLY ATTACHABLE DISINFECTING LIGHT FOR A CONVEYOR BELT

The present disclosure relates to a removably attachable disinfecting device to disinfect items on a conveyor. The disinfecting device has a housing, an inlet, an outlet, and at least one disinfecting light positioned within the housing. The housing is five-sided and has an inlet cover and an outlet cover, a first lip on a first side, and a second lip on a second side, the lips configured to rest on an outer, stationary surface of a conveyor belt system. As an item passes down the conveyor belt, it enters the disinfecting device via the inlet where it is exposed to disinfecting light (e.g., UV light). The disinfected item proceeds to exit the disinfecting device on the conveyor belt via the outlet.

A Sterilization Unit includes: a UV-C radiation source configured to emit UV-C radiation; and a room partition selectably configurable between two or more different partition geometrics and configured, in each of the two or more different partition geometrics, to (a) physically separate floor space of a room into sterilization target area and a non-target area, and (b) direct the UV-C radiation to the target area from at least two different directions while shielding the non-target area from the UV-C radiation.

SINK SYSTEM AND COMPONENTS

A sink system includes a sink basin and a disposal system. The disposal system includes a first inlet coupled to the sink basin, a second inlet fluidly coupled to a second fluid source, and a garbage disposal configured to receive a first flow of fluid from the sink basin via the first inlet and receive a second flow of fluid from a second fluid source via the second inlet. The sink basin delivers a flow of used water to the disposal system and the second fluid source delivers a flow of clean water to the disposal system.

UV-C LED disinfecting apparatuses, systems, and methods

An ultraviolet (UV) germicidal irradiation system comprising: a light emitting diode (LED) disinfecting face mask comprising: a flexible mask body having a front surface and a back surface; a flexible printed circuitry (FPC) sheet disposed within the flexible mask body, the FPC sheet having a plurality of LEDs adapted to emit UV light, the plurality of LEDs facing the front surface; a vibration sensor electrically connected to the FPC sheet, the vibration sensor being adapted to detect vibrations; a UV-reflective layer disposed behind the FPC sheet, the UV-reflective layer being adapted to reflect the UV light; and a light diffusion layer disposed in front of the FPC sheet, the light diffusion layer being adapted to scatter the UV light; and a control module comprising: a central processing unit (CPU), an LED driver, and a power source; the CPU being in electrical communication with the LED driver and the vibration sensor.

SANITIZATION AND CLEANING SYSTEM FOR OBJECTS
20230049271 · 2023-02-16 · ·

An apparatus may include one or more light components that are configured to emit light to sanitize and disinfect one or more objects included within the apparatus. The apparatus may have an interior cavity at which the light components are located, where the interior cavity is accessible via one or more doors, an opening, a lid, etc. The apparatus may have a conveyor that transports objects from a first end of the apparatus to a second end of the apparatus, where the objects are sanitized during transport. The apparatus may be transitioned from an expanded configuration to an unexpanded/collapsed configuration, and vice versa. The apparatus may be stationary or include wheels or other mechanisms that allow the apparatus to be moved between different locations. Objects that are sanitized by the light components of the apparatus will be free of pathogens (e.g., viruses, bacteria, etc.) that are potentially harmful to humans.

FLEXIBLE BAG ASSEMBLY
20220356009 · 2022-11-10 ·

A flexible bag assembly having at least one layer of a flexible material that permits a UV light source to penetrate through to sterilize bacterial contents on an interior of the flexible bag assembly. Transmission of the UV light source is maximized through the flexible material and to enhance a kill rate of bacteria within the interior of the flexible bag assembly. A bio-assimilator may be integrated into a composition of the flexible bag assembly to facilitate biodegradation by anaerobic degradation leaving no microplastic remnants.
