SCANNING AND DISINFECTING SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18652244 titled 'SCANNING AND DISINFECTING SYSTEM

The abstract describes a disinfection system consisting of a base, first arm, second arm, and an emission module with one or more scanners to emit electromagnetic energy for disinfection.

  • The system includes a base, first arm, second arm, and emission module.
  • The emission module has one or more scanners to emit electromagnetic energy for disinfection.
  • A rotary actuator aligns the scanners with a focusing lens to produce a narrow beam or positions the lens out of alignment for a broad beam.

Potential Applications: - Hospitals - Laboratories - Food processing facilities - Public transportation - Schools and universities

Problems Solved: - Efficient disinfection of surfaces - Reduction of harmful pathogens - Automation of disinfection processes

Benefits: - Improved hygiene and safety - Time and cost savings - Reduced risk of infections

Commercial Applications: Disinfection systems can be used in various industries such as healthcare, food, and transportation to ensure clean and safe environments.

Questions about the disinfection system: 1. How does the system compare to traditional disinfection methods?

  - The system offers automated and efficient disinfection compared to manual methods.

2. What is the range of surfaces that can be effectively disinfected by the system?

  - The system can disinfect a wide range of surfaces, including high-touch areas and complex structures.


Original Abstract Submitted

A disinfection system is disclosed. The disinfection system includes a base, a first arm mechanically coupled to the base at a first joint, a second arm mechanically coupled to the first arm at a second joint, and an emission module mechanically coupled to the second arm at a third joint. The emission module may include a third arm that includes one or more scanners configured to emit electromagnetic energy further configured to disinfect a first surface. The emission module may also include the one or more scanners, focusing lens, a lens frame, and a rotary actuator, wherein the rotary actuator is configured to align one of the one or more scanners with the focusing lens to produce a narrow electromagnetic beam, or position the focusing lens out of alignment with the one of the one or more scanners to produce a broad electromagnetic beam.
