  • Patent number: 11723996
    Abstract: A mobile body is configured to travel an area optionally over a surface inside an aircraft cabin. Components comprise at least one of a UVC protective shield, the shield selectively providing a multisided enclosure that selectively envelopes and/or separates the operator from the UVC in the surrounding environment. A source of UV radiation is mounted to the mobile body and configured to direct UV radiation to the surface at a predetermined dosage. At least two articulated arms are mounted to the mobile body, and UV lamps mounted respectively on the arms. The mobile body is a trolley or cart for negotiating an area optionally an aircraft aisle.

  • Patent number: 11413361
    Abstract: Sanitizing surfaces comprising a sanitization device including a mobile body; and extending the sanitization device (102) laterally from the mobile body across a surface. A source of UV radiation (104) is mounted on the sanitization device. The sanitization device moves across the surface; exposing the surface to UV radiation produced by the source; directing a source of UV radiation to the surface at a predetermined dosage while the device moves over surface. Moving and locating the sanitization device can be inwardly and outwardly relative to the mobile body to extend at different angles being from a horizontal angle relative to the mobile body to a non-horizontal angle relative to the mobile body and to effect sanitization when so extended. The device is operable upwardly and downwardly across the surface while effecting the sanitation.

  • Patent number: 11007290
    Abstract: A rover device for sanitizing spacecraft that emits germicidal ultraviolet light with means for sensing and directing rover location, orientation, velocity, trajectory and path is disclosed. Rather, the disclosed embodiment is a rover that uses propellers more in the fashion of a thruster on a satellite which uses short bursts to control satellite position in three translational planes and three rotational axes. Unlike a thruster, the propeller can be reversed, allowing motion in either direction.

  • Patent number: 10500296
    Abstract: Sanitizing surfaces in a location related to aircraft. There are multiple rows of seats. A sanitization device includes a mobile body configured to travel along the aisle of the aircraft. An arm extends from the sanitization device laterally from the mobile body across the seats, and a source of UV radiation mounted on the sanitization device is directed across the seats exposing surfaces in the passenger area to UV radiation. There is a data collector to collect information in the aircraft. A passive RFID tag mounted on elements can be read by an RFID reader. The device can include one or more sniffer cells for scanning the aircraft for unwanted or dangerous devices or chemicals.
