VEHICLE SANITIZER SYSTEM AND METHOD OF SANITIZING A VEHICLE

A vehicle sanitizer system includes a sanitizer emitter member, selectively moveable between a stowed position in a compartment of a vehicle cabin and a deployed position out of the compartment; a sensor module to detect an interior of a vehicle cabin as sensor data; and a vehicle sanitizer module, that includes one or more processors to execute a set of instructions that cause the vehicle sanitizer module to: conduct, in response to the detection, an analysis of the sensor data; identify, in response to the analysis, one or more target interior surfaces in the vehicle cabin to be sanitized; and cause, via the sanitizer emitter member and in response to the identification, generation of water vapor content into the vehicle cabin, one or more sanitizer streams directed at the identified one or more target interior surfaces.

The disclosure relates to systems and methods for treating a vehicle with radiation. The system generally comprises a being detection system, one or more sanitizing lights, a surface tinting means, and at least one processor. Sanitizing radiation is emitted onto one or more surfaces of the vehicle, as well as the air of the vehicle to sanitize the vehicle. The processor allows and being detection system allow for safe sanitizations to be conducted inside the vehicle. The vehicle may be treated with safe UV-C light and/or unsafe UV-C light, depending on the presence of beings in the vehicle.

A health system for a work vehicle includes a controller having a memory and a processor. The controller is configured to receive a first sensor signal indicative of a body temperature of an operator positioned outside a cab of the work vehicle. The controller is also configured to determine whether the body temperature of the operator is above a threshold body temperature. Furthermore, the controller is configured to output a first control signal to an interlock system indicative of instructions to lock a door of the cab of the work vehicle in response to determining the body temperature of the operator is above the threshold body temperature.

ENCLOSED WASH SYSTEM

This system was designed after many years of trying to resolve dirt and dust accumulation in confined areas on mobile and stationary equipment, and other types of plant equipment, including equipment of offshore oil and gas platforms, maritime vessels, and others, and more generally any kind of motorized or mechanical equipment with internal areas that accumulate dust and dirt. The areas where dust and dirt accumulation occur would normally only be accessible by removing major components. The initial installation of the wash system may be time consuming, however, may eliminate future risk exposure and manning. The system may be designed to utilize existing pressure washers and air systems. The supply manifold may be constructed from steel, hydraulic lines, pressure wash nozzles and angled fittings. The installer may assess areas of accumulation, directing the nozzles at the general area. Once the system has been installed, mechanical operators may easily attach the device to a pressure source. Quick connect fittings would be installed outside the machine, connecting pressurized water or air to the supply manifold.

Method and system for a vehicle sanitizing mode

Methods and systems are provided for heat sanitizing a vehicle. In one example, a method may include, responsive to receiving a request for sanitization of a vehicle interior, operating a heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning (HVAC) system to heat the vehicle interior above an upper threshold temperature for a threshold duration. In this way, the HVAC system may be advantageously used to expose the vehicle interior to temperatures that kill or inactive microbes.
