  • Patent number: 11583599
    Abstract: A system for a sanitizing machine including a housing assembly and a sterilizing assembly is disclosed. The housing assembly includes a housing with a feeding tray and a catch tray attached. The housing assembly further includes rollers within. Importantly, the sterilizing assembly including ultraviolet lights are secured within the housing. The ultraviolet lights are used to cleanse and sanitize menus that get inserted into the housing with radiation. The menus are received on the feeding tray, then the menus are inserted into the housing in which the ultraviolet lights eliminate germs, diseases or viruses from the surface of the menus. Once the menus are completely sanitized, the menus exit housing and are received on the catch tray ready for usage again. Sanitation of the menus is done without the use of harsh chemicals.
