Abstract
A disinfecting system includes a housing. An ultraviolet light (UV) source is secured to the housing and configured to emit UV light for disinfection of a target. A processor is secured to the housing in communication with the UV light source. The processor is configured to activate the UV light source for a selected amount of time suitable for disinfection of the target.
Claims22
A device for fluid disinfection comprising:
- a handheld container configured to hold fluids, the handheld container comprising reflective internal surfaces and ultraviolet C (UVC) light blocking external surfaces;
- and
- a lid configured to removably couple to the handheld container and retain the fluids in the handheld container, the lid comprising:
- a rechargeable power supply;
- and
- a UVC light source coupled to the rechargeable power supply, the UVC light source configured to emit UVC light for disinfection of surfaces and fluids within the interior of the handheld container.
3 more elements
A device for fluid disinfection comprising:
- a portable reservoir configured to hold fluids, the portable reservoir comprising reflective internal surfaces and ultraviolet C (UVC) light blocking external surfaces;
- and
- a lid configured to removably couple to the portable reservoir and retain the fluids in the portable reservoir, the lid comprising:
- a rechargeable power supply;
- at least one UVC LED light source coupled to the rechargeable power supply, the at least one UVC LED light source configured to emit UVC LED light for disinfection of surfaces and fluids within the interior of the portable reservoir;
- and
- a processor electrically coupled to the rechargeable power supply and in communication with the at least one UVC LED light source, wherein the processor is configured to control the at least one UVC LED light source.
