Abstract
A portable sanitizing system, comprising a wand assembly including a sanitizing head having an ultraviolet (UV) lamp. A case assembly includes a cover coupled to a main body. The cover is configured to be moved between an open position that exposes a storage chamber and a closed position. The wand assembly is configured to be stored in the storage chamber when not in use and removed from the storage chamber to disinfect one or more components with UV light emitted by the UV lamp.
Claims22
A portable sanitizing system, comprising:
- a wand assembly including a sanitizing head having an ultraviolet (UV) lamp;
- and
- a case assembly including a cover coupled to a main body, wherein the cover is configured to be moved between an open position that exposes a storage chamber and a closed position, wherein the wand assembly is configured to be stored in the storage chamber when not in use and removed from the storage chamber to disinfect one or more components with UV light emitted by the UV lamp.
A portable sanitizing method, comprising:
- moving a cover of a case assembly between an open position that exposes a storage chamber and a closed position;
- storing a wand assembly including a sanitizing head having an ultraviolet (UV) lamp in the storage chamber when not in use;
- and
- removing the wand assembly from the storage chamber to disinfect one or more components with UV light emitted by the UV lamp.
A portable sanitizing system, comprising:
- a wand assembly including a sanitizing head having an ultraviolet (UV) lamp, and a cooling manifold that is configured to deliver cooling air to the UV lamp;
- and
- a case assembly comprising:
- a handle;
- a cover coupled to a main body, wherein the cover is configured to be moved between an open position that exposes a storage chamber and a closed position, wherein the wand assembly is configured to be stored in the storage chamber when not in use and removed from the storage chamber to disinfect one or more components with UV light emitted by the UV lamp;
- one or more casters;
- a hose retainer that is configured to secure a hose on the cover when the wand assembly is within the storage chamber and the cover is the closed position;
- a cooling fan within the storage chamber, wherein the cooling fan is configured to couple to the wand assembly through the hose, and wherein the cooling fan is configured to deliver cooling air to the wand assembly through the hose;
- one or more batteries within the storage chamber;
- a power supply within the storage chamber, wherein the power supply is configured to couple to the wand assembly through a power cord, wherein a hole is formed through a portion of the case assembly, wherein the hole is configured to allow one or both of a portion of a hose or a portion of a power cord to pass.
