  • Publication number: 20180055957
    Abstract: A disinfection box includes a disinfection box unit, ultraviolet disinfection lamps, air dehumidification equipment and ozone generation equipment. The ozone generation equipment is used along with the ultraviolet disinfection lamps to sterilize and disinfect medical equipment to be disinfected inside the disinfection box unit. In particular, as the equipment box is rotatable, the medical equipment to be disinfected can be fully disinfected without any blind spot. In addition, by the collaborative use of the ultraviolet disinfection lamps, the air dehumidification equipment and the ozone generated by the ozone generation equipment, the medical equipment to be disinfected can be sterilized and disinfected quickly and sufficiently in a short time, thereby saving time as well as being sterilized and disinfected without any blind spot.

  • Patent number: 9149910
    Abstract: The present invention is primarily assembled from a main body, a lifting device, a control switch, a grinding device, a nozzle apparatus, and a dust collecting device. The main body includes a first casing, and a second casing disposed within the first casing. The lifting device enables raising and lowering of the first casing relative to the second casing for adjustment to a suitable height. An operating area at the top of the first casing is equipped with the control switch. The nozzle apparatus includes an air compressor, a dryer, a sand storage tank, and a nozzle, which facilitate the user in operational use, and enable powerful collection of dust. In particular, during the sand blasting process, the present invention enables optimum handling of environmental dust pollution.

  • Publication number: 20020150861
    Abstract: This is an air-sucking, sterilizing and wastewater treatment method for dental clinic bed. It has an air-sucking and sterilizing device, and a wastewater-treating device below a gargle bench of a dental clinic bed. The air-sucking inlet of the air-sucking and sterilizing device is connected above the bench top to an air-sucking pipe that can be bent to form. At the other end of the air-sucking pipe is an air-sucking mask equipped with a clinical lamp. Utilizing the bendable property of the air-sucking pipe, the dentist can adjust the air-sucking mask with the clinical lamp to an optimum position, to collect germ-carrying flying saliva and volatile chemicals produced in the clinical process, or the flying moisture from the tooth grinding machine in the air-sucking and sterilizing device. Inside the air-exhaust valve is a ion device for purifying purpose to enhance hygienic quality of the entire clinical process, and avoid unnecessary contamination of flying saliva.
