US Patent:

7175806, Feb 13, 2007

Filed:

Feb 24, 2003

Appl. No.:

10/373270

Inventors:

Jeffery L. Deal - Charleston SC, US
Philip J. Ufkes - Mount Pleasant SC, US
David R. Deal - Atlanta GA, US

International Classification:

A61I 2/10

US Classification:

422 24, 422 3, 25045511

Abstract:

A C-Band Disinfector disinfects objects placed within the device by subjecting the objects to closed-loop emissions of UV-C radiation. UV-C sensors measure reflected UV-C radiation and control the period of operation of the device. In an additional embodiment, UV-C radiation is transmitted by fiber-optic cable to a particular area of an object to be disinfected. After the prescribed dose is applied, the fiber-optic cable is moved to a new area of the object, and the UV-C disinfection process continues until all areas of the object have been disinfected by exposure to the prescribed dose of the UV-C radiation.

International Classification:

A61L 2/10

US Classification:

422024000

Abstract:

A C-Band Disinfector disinfects objects placed within the interior of the device by subjecting the objects to emissions of UV-C radiation. Multiple UV-C sensors measure UV-C radiation dosage to the objects and control the period of operation of the device, terminating the emission of UV-C radiation only after all of the UV-C radiation sensors have received a minimum predetermined dosage.
