Abstract: Systems and methods for disinfecting/sanitizing various articles using disinfecting solutions and ultraviolet (UV) light. In one embodiment, an exemplary system includes a tank that contains a sanitizing liquid, coupled to a pipe system that includes multiple spray nozzles. A pump pumps the sanitizing liquid from the tank to the nozzles, which dispense the liquid to a disinfecting area. Some or all of the system may be mounted on a transportable mobile unit such as a trailer. In one embodiment, a portion including the tank and pump are mounted on the mobile unit and are connectable to a pipe system and nozzles that are permanently installed in a disinfecting area, such as the interior of a vehicle. Other embodiments are also possible.

Abstract: Systems and methods for construction using modular units, such as wall panels, which have integrated utility service. One embodiment comprises a product including a modular construction panel and one or more utility fittings which are integral to the panel. The utility fittings may be for any type of utility service, such as electrical, plumbing, HVAC, computer network, phone or audio/video service. The fittings in the panels may be electrical wires or plumbing conduits. The panels may include connectors (e.g., quick-connect connectors) for coupling the utility fittings which are integral to the panel to service points such as wiring harnesses or water source pipes that are external to the panel and that provide utility service to the utility fittings. The panels may also include connectors for coupling the integral utility fittings to utility fixtures external the panel, such as light switches, electrical outlets, computer network jacks, phone jacks, faucets, drains, etc.
