Abstract
An apparatus includes a sanitization system configured to sanitize, at least in part, an interior space of a room. The sanitization system includes a control system configured to be positioned relative to the interior space of the room. The control system is also configured to be in electrical communication with: (A) a sensor assembly configured to be positioned in the interior space of the room, (B) a door-locking mechanism configured to be operatively connected to a door, in which the door is an entrance to the interior space of the room, and (C) a sanitation-light source configured to be positionable in the interior space of the room.
Claims19
An apparatus, comprising:
- a sanitization system configured to sanitize, at least in part, an interior space of a room, the sanitization system, including:
- a control system being configured to be positioned relative to the interior space of the room;
- and
- the control system also being configured to be in electrical communication with:
- a sensor assembly being configured to be positioned in the interior space of the room;
- and
- a door-locking mechanism being configured to be operatively connected to a door, in which the door is an entrance to the interior space of the room;
- and
- a sanitation-light source being configured to be positionable in the interior space of the room;
- and
- wherein the control system is further configured to:
- transmit a door-control signal to the door-locking mechanism, for the case where the control system receives a presence status indicator signal, from the sensor assembly, in which the presence status indicator signal indicates that the room is occupied by a person positioned in the interior space of the room, and in which the door-control signal, in use, keeps the door in an unlocked state;
- and
- monitor and ensure that:
- the sanitation-light source remains in an OFF state;
- and
- the door-locking mechanism does not lock the door while the sanitation-light source remains in the OFF state.
An apparatus, comprising:
- a sanitization system configured to sanitize, at least in part, an interior space of a room, the sanitization system, including:
- a sensor assembly being configured to be positioned in the interior space of the room;
- and
- a sanitation-light source being configured to be positionable in the interior space of the room;
- and
- a control system;
- and
- a housing assembly being configured to house and support the control system, the sensor assembly, and the sanitation-light source;
- and
- the control system being configured to:
- be positioned relative to the interior space of the room;
- and
- be in electrical communication with:
- the sensor assembly;
- and
- the sanitation-light source;
- and
- a door-locking mechanism being configured to be operatively connected to a door, in which the door is an entrance to the interior space of the room;
- and
- a display assembly being positioned outside of the room;
- and
- wherein the control system is further configured to:
- transmit a door-control signal to the door-locking mechanism, for the case where the control system receives a presence status indicator signal, from the sensor assembly, in which the presence status indicator signal indicates that the room is occupied by a person positioned in the interior space of the room, and in which the door-control signal, in use, keeps the door in an unlocked state;
- and
- monitor and ensure that:
- the sanitation-light source remains in an OFF state;
- and
- the door-locking mechanism does not lock the door while the sanitation-light source remains in the OFF state.
