Regarding Venpur Air Disinfection Table
Venpur is a table that purifies and disinfects the air in public places such as cafes and restaurants. Venpur uses ultraviolet light and oxygen-enriched technology to create negative pressure around the table, so the surrounding air is filtered and disinfected. An oxygen-enriched fan increases air circulation speed, and an ultraviolet lamp is arranged for full contact with the moving air. A mesh grid at the air inlet keeps foreign objects out. An infrared sensor starts the purification when a user approaches and stops it when the user leaves. The top cover is removable for filter maintenance.

Design Details
- Unique Properties
- Venpur adopts ultraviolet light and oxygen-enriched technology to create negative pressure around the table, to filter and disinfect the surrounding air. It can solve the problem of cross-infection caused by droplets in the public environment.
- Inspiration
- Since the outbreak of COVID-19 in early 2020, catering, entertainment and other industries have been seriously affected. In order to provide a safe public environment and reduce the spread of virus, we designed a fully automatic table of air purification and disinfection, called “Venpur”. “Ven” comes from “wind”, meaning ventilation. “Pur” comes from “pure”, meaning purification.
- Research
- Venpur is mainly used in cafes, restaurants and other public places. The daily way of cleaning public space is generally just to clean the dust on tables, lacking purification of the viruses or bacteria on them and in the surrounding air. Air purification is also essential in modern life. Venpur can purify indoor air, remove harmful substances in the air, and ensure the circulation of indoor fresh air. Venpur adopts minimalist aesthetics as the design concept. It is fashionable, practical, and better integration with the environment at the same time.
- Challenge
- How to reduce the spread of the virus in the public environment.
- Realization and Technology
- Venpur is equipped with an oxygen-enriched fan to increase the speed of surrounding air circulation and to ensure the purification efficiency of air circulation. Venpur is equipped with ultraviolet sterilization lamp. Through special arrangement design, it can make full contact with light during air circulation to achieve the full effect of sterilization. The air inlet can avoid foreign matters entering the system and ensure the safety of use by setting a mesh grid structure.
- Operation and Interaction
- Venpur is a product with multi-functions. It combines table with purifier to purify the droplets that are expelled by speaking in real time and to avoid infection by sterilization and disinfection.The top cover of Venpur can be removed flexibly to facilitate the maintenance of the filter element inside the equipment. For the convenience of the user experience, Venpur has call function.
- Project Duration and Location
- The project started in March 2020 and finished in December 2020 in Yantai.
- Specifications
- Vepure adopts ultraviolet and oxygen - enriched technology.
- Keywords
- sterilization, disinfection, dual-purification, safety, convenience, air circulation
