The combined vacuum and sterilizing appliance is an electrical appliance that uses vacuum and sterilizing technology to maintain food freshness without the need for refrigeration. It takes the air out of the interior of the unit and uses a UV light to sterilize the unit from bacteria growing inside the unit. This allows food to stay fresher for much longer in any climate and makes more room available inside the refrigerator.

Claims

The ornamental design for a combined vacuum and sterilizing appliance, as shown and described.
