The present invention relates to an air purifying apparatus, and more particularly, to an air purifying device for purifying air in an isolation space.
Generally speaking, therein no isolation facilities for hospital beds to form isolation space around the hospital beds. Therefore, the hospital beds cannot provide air disinfection and purification treatment to the space around the beds. Under the circumstance of limited medical resources in hospitals, multiple hospital beds are often set up in a ward to provide multiple patients for their hospitalization. In the absence of isolation space and the inability to provide air disinfection and purification treatment to the space around the bed, for multiple patients in the same ward, there is a risk of cross-infection during hospitalization.
Thus, the present invention provides an air purifying device for purifying air in an isolation space for solving above drawbacks.
According to an embodiment, an air purifying apparatus for purifying air in an isolation space is disclosed. The isolation space is surrounded by a mask body. The isolation space and an outer space are bounded by the mask body. The air purifying apparatus includes a main casing, an intake device and a decontamination device. The main casing has an accommodating space, an inner exhausting runner and an inner intake runner formed therein. The inner exhausting runner is communicated with the isolation space and a side of the accommodating space. The inner intake runner is communicated with the isolation space and another side of the accommodating space. A cross-sectional area of the inner exhausting runner is different from a cross-sectional area of the inner intake runner. The intake device is disposed in the accommodating space. The decontamination device is disposed in the accommodating space. The decontamination device is disposed between the intake device and the inner exhausting runner and for purifying and disinfecting air in the accommodating space.

The inner exhausting runner is communicated with the isolation space and a side of the accommodating space. The inner intake runner is communicated with the isolation space and another side of the accommodating space. A cross-sectional area of the inner exhausting runner is different from a cross-sectional area of the inner intake runner. The intake device is disposed in the accommodating space. The decontamination device is disposed in the accommodating space. The decontamination device is disposed between the intake device and the outer exhausting runner and for purifying and disinfecting air in the accommodating space.

It is noticed that, in the embodiment, a sum over the cross-sectional area of the inner exhausting runner 202 and the cross-sectional area of the inner intake runner 203 is greater than a sum over the cross-sectional area of the outer exhausting runner 204 and the cross-sectional area of the outer intake runner 205. As a result, under a condition of the same intake device 21, a sum over an inner exhausting flux flew out from the isolation space IS via the inner exhausting runner 202 an inner intake flux flew into the isolation space IS via the inner intake runner 203 is greater than a sum over an outer exhausting flux flew into the accommodating space 201 via the outer exhausting runner 204 and an outer intake flux flew out from the accommodating space 201 via the outer intake runner 205. In other words, the present invention is able to adjust the sum over the inner exhausting flux and the inner intake flux to be greater than the sum over the outer exhausting flux and the outer intake flux through a design that the sum over the cross-sectional area of the inner exhausting runner 202 and the cross-sectional area of the inner intake runner 203 is greater than the sum over the cross-sectional area of the outer exhausting runner 204 and the cross-sectional area of the outer intake runner 205.
Furthermore, the air purifying apparatus 2′ further includes an inner intake flow adjustment device 23, an inner exhausting flow adjustment device 24, an outer exhausting flow adjustment device 25 and an outer intake flow adjustment device 26. The inner intake flow adjustment device 23 is coupled to the inner intake runner 203 and for adjusting the inner intake flux flew into the isolation space IS via the inner intake runner 203. The inner exhausting flow adjustment device 24 is coupled to the inner exhausting runner 202 and for adjusting the inner intake flux flew out from the isolation space IS via the inner exhausting runner 202. The outer exhausting flow adjustment device 25 is coupled to the outer exhausting runner 204 and for adjusting the outer exhausting flux flew into the accommodating space 201 via the outer exhausting runner 204. The outer intake flow adjustment device 26 is coupled to the outer intake runner 205 and for adjusting the outer intake flux flew out from the accommodating space 201 via the outer intake runner 205.
In the embodiment, at least one of the inner intake flow adjustment device 23, the inner exhausting flow adjustment device 24, the outer exhausting flow adjustment device 25 and the outer intake flow adjustment device 26 is a ball valve device, a butterfly valve device, a blade valve device or a pin valve device. Structures of the ball valve device and the pin valve device are identical to those illustrated in the aforesaid embodiment(s), and related descriptions are omitted herein for simplicity.

In such a manner, when air in the isolation space IS is flew into the accommodating space 201 via the inner exhausting runner 202, the air is purified and disinfected by the decontamination device 22 and then intake to the outer space OS via the outer intake runner 205, so as to purify and disinfect the air in the isolation space IS. In other words, the air purifying apparatus 2″ of the bed set 400 has a circulation mode of “inner-exhausting-outer-intake”. Components with denoted in this embodiment identical to those in the aforesaid embodiment have identical structures and functions, and further description is omitted herein for simplicity.

Compared to the prior art, the air purifying apparatus installed on the mask body is utilized to purify and disinfect the air in the isolation space surrounded by the mask, wherein the isolation space reduces the possibility of users (such as patients) being affected by the outer space, and is equipped with cleaning equipment for purifying and disinfecting, thereby reducing the risk of cross-infection during hospitalization.
Those skilled in the art will readily observe that numerous modifications and alterations of the device and method may be made while retaining the teachings of the invention. Accordingly, the above disclosure should be construed as limited only by the metes and bounds of the appended claims.
